Actual Minds, Simulated Loads Blown At Last Night's Air Sex World Championships at Trees
"Cotton-Eyed Joe" has his way with an imaginary tree stump in the final round of Air Sex last night. We've got more photos in our slide show.
Patrick Michels
An invisible lion, an invisible cow, and a whole cornucopia of simulated human partners got the go-rounds of their lives last night at Trees for Dallas' first-ever turn at the Air Sex World Championships. The fauxnication was graphic, titillating, and at times, a little bit disturbing. No, let's be fair: a lot bit disturbing. Like when "Jack The Dripper" (I KNOW) demonstrated a thoroughly necrophilic bang.
But the big winner was "Colin Oscopy," a tall, gangly dude whose first performance centered around a vigorous devirginizing of a mild-mannered nice guy. He competed with "Rick Ramrod" for a shot at the finals, participating in what emcee Chris Trew called a "fuck off," wherein Ramrod, while charismatic, just couldn't pull out in front of Colin's aw-shucks demeanor.
But just moments before the show was to start, Trew says he didn't know if the whole thing might go limp. Contestants who'd signed up before hand dropped out. Myself and my fellow judges -- Air Sex past champion Slut Truffle and improvisors Clay Barton and Amanda Austin of the Dallas Comedy House -- didn't know if we'd have any doin' it to dig on. In the end, Dallas didn't disappoint, with a number of competitors signing up well after they'd walked in the door.
Says Trew: "We walked into Dallas with a mere three people signed up. Didn't know what to expect. Moments before the show started a mob of contestants showed up ready to make pretend love on stage in front of a couple hundred people. The energy and the sex were both beautiful."
Our own Patrick Michels was there with his camera, and has plenty more photos in this slide show.

#GAGExpertChat Hi! I'm just getting ready for my dating expert chat shortly.
I'm wondering what you all think about this? What's most important? Do you think it's just one or a combination?
Ladies, what do you go for in a man?
This is just a bit of fun to get the conversation started!

Usually it's how attractive she is. Maybe they read the profile, if they're serious about wanting to know you. If they deem a woman very attractive in their heads, and they aren't serious about making any other type of connection they'll just skip right to the sex questions. Or covertly, can I see a picture and you'll already have like 10posted, there's nothing more to see.
What I go for in a man. Usually it's a cute face. I don't want to be so close to someone that I wouldn't like visually. I'm not one of those attraction grows type people. His general energy he's giving off in a picture. If he reads extreme pansy, vain, or douche than I'll skip over hIm. If I think he's decent then I'm looking out for syntax in general.21|10|0
I think men sometimes like collecting female photos purely for their own ego. Women do tend to try to read male photos in more detail... sometimes too quickly P. s What sites have sex questions? That's not common in the UK
What's too quickly? In your opinion. It's when someone happens to private message you, you know.

LONDON, May 25 (Reuters) - British interior minister Amber Rudd is "confident" that leaks to the U.S. media about the investigation into a suicide bombing in Manchester which killed 22 people will end, a BBC reporter said on Thursday.
"Home Secretary says she's 'confident' the leaks about Manchester attack to U.S. media will now end," BBC political correspondent Vicki Young said on Twitter, referring to the interior minister by the commonly used title in Britain.
On Wednesday, Rudd said she found the leaks "irritating" and expressed confidence that they would end. However a new leak of photographs of the bomb site then prompted British police to stop sharing intelligence about the attack with U.S. counterparts.

The Top 3 Things You Need to Do in Order to Have The Best Restaurant Terrace in Town
In less than 2 weeks, summer will officially begin. Even though the warm season is not here yet, people are already taking advantage of every sunny day to hit their favorite terrace to eat a great meal or drink a beer with their friends. As restaurant owners, you know the importance of terrace season as it is one of the most lucrative periods of the year for your business. In this article, we will give you 3 tips to help you create the ultimate restaurant terrace in town.
1 – Hire Positive and Energetic Employees
While it may seem obvious that you would want to hire people that have these traits, the reality is that not all your employees will them. Those who do not have these qualitities may be very good at other things in your restaurant, but you should only assign your friendliest employees to your restaurant's terrace.
Why? Because staff interactions with customers plays a big role in defining the experience that people will have on your terrace. If your staff is happy and cares about the customers they serve, it will have a positive impact on your customers' experience and may contribute to their return. However, if your employees are working on the terrace looking like they would rather be somewhere else and are not trying their best to please their customers, people will talk about it to their friends and family and i twill negatively impact your brand.
In short, do your best to hire positive and energetic people to work on your restaurant's terrace!
2 – Buy New, Stylish Furniture to Improve Your Customers' Comfort While They are On Your Terrace
Another important aspect of a great and successful restaurant terrace is its furniture. If you take a moment to think about that, you will realize that your customers spend a lot of time using your furniture so it needs to be solid and comfortable. It also needs to look good since it will play a big in defining the style and atmosphere that your terrace will have.
In order to help you to select to best furniture for your restaurant's terrace according to the look you want to create and your budget, we suggest that you work with a furniture manufacturer. It will be able to help you to choose the best restaurant chairs, tables and bar stools for your terrace.
3 – Invest to Decorate it
People are always looking to go on the greatest and trendiest terraces in town. If yours has not received a facelift for more than a decade, you should get to work now! Find a style that will fit your restaurant and that will prompt customers to visit you. Refresh everything that you can while following your budget including accessories, walls, flooring, etc.
This concludes our article on the top 3 things you need to do in order to have the best restaurant terrace in town. We hope that reading it will inspire you to give a brand new look to your restaurant's terrace this summer.

To hope my parents would give us support around the house after I have my first baby?(113 Posts)
My DP and I live in northern Australia, a four-hour flight away from our families in the south. We moved up here 5 years ago for my work. My DP has chronic fatigue syndrome and can't work, she needs a lot of support herself. We love it here and have bought a house and settled in for the near future. We do miss being close to family though and don't see them anywhere near as much as we'd like. DP's parents have never visited and mine have been up twice. We mainly go south if we want to see them.
I'm now 38+5 with PFB. At Christmas we went south and broached the idea of family coming up to see the baby and give us some help when it's born. I got quite upset when my parents suggested they might be too busy to come up and we should just bring baby down in 6 weeks or so. They're retired, they could afford the flights, and I've offered to pay if that's the issue.
Anyway they've agreed they'll visit now, but they won't tell me when they're coming or how long for. And yesterday when I suggested to mum that when they're here, we'd really appreciate some help around the house or with doing some cooking and what-have-you she was shocked and dismissive. She said she wasn't coming all this way to do housework.
AIBU to want some support - emotional and practical - from my mum? It's my first baby and I'm really nervous of those first few weeks. My DP is wonderful, but is sick herself and can't do much. How to I explain that I just need some help because I love my parents and need them, not cos I'm being lazy or selfish?
But if OP does have a difficult time & needs help-maybe they will come.
It´s speculation atm, isn´t it?
And I agree they might not understand about your partner's illness, or might resent doing stuff that benefits her as well-especially whilst she is there & do
I always think that it is such a shame that people can't swap grandparents , many complain they see too much and even get upset if MIL gets the washing in if it looks like rain! It is a bit of a mine field- some want help, some don't- if we could marry the like minded ones up then life would be simple!
I feel for you OP, but I can't say I am all that sympathetic.
I read these threads about people expecting help after having a baby and I just can not relate to them. People decide to have a baby and then get pee-ed off when others, who had nothing to do with the decision, do not help them.mof course it would be lovely if your parents would help, and I sure as hell intend to help my children out when they have children! But I do think YABU to be user when they do not respond the way you won't them to. Also, to actually ask them to do housework is a bit off in my opinion.
My parents passed away when I was in my twenties. My inlaws live on the other side of the world. I have a 2.6yr old DS, due to give birth next Wednesday, and a DH who works 14 hour days. I actually find I cope so much better than my friends who have help from their parents. My child has absolute consistency, and I do things my way and on my terms, answerable to no one (DH is wonderful but works damn hard so that I can be a SAHM).
My point is, don't stress, it really is NOT that big a deal having a newborn. They need milk, warmth and cuddles. That is it.
Sorry- was trying to put & seemingly doing nothing-when they might think that she should be!
Maybe be glad they've said they will visit you and the new baby (though they can't say when or for how long ?)
Also your partner may be able to help more than you think - having her around to keep you company and if she is able to spend some time holding and cuddling baby you may be able to get on with a few things you want or need to do more easily ?
Agree with others, maybe focus more on you and DP and how you're going to cope with things when your lovely new baby arrives. Not everyone has parents/ grandparents who see their role as helpers - some of them, and other visitors, can have an amazing tendency to sit around waiting for you to make them a cup of tea, even when you've just got back from the hospital with your baby
I suspect that when they arrive, they will help out a bit. Maybe not in the sense of doing a list of chores for you but certainly the odd meal or tidying up or helping more if they see you struggle. It is probably more that you made it clear that you expected help rather than leaving it to them to offer it that grated a bit.
And even if they don't help out, you will be just fine. Newborn babies sleep an awful lot (in theory) and although you will be tired, you will have the time to do the things you need to do. You can also do some cooking in advance to freeze, getthe baby clothes ready, build the crib etc so that once baby is here there are no major or stressful jobs to do in the first week or so.
I don't think that your expecting them to come and do housework is very nice at all - why should they? As another poster said, you have to get on with life and you cannot rely on your parents forever - and who on earth would want to?
YABU. You already knew that for whatever reasons, they were reluctant to visit. Yet when they eventually agreed you push things further by mentioning housework.
I think you both need to shift your focus to what you as parents can do to.prepare for the baby. Simple things like cooking double portions and freezing meals every night for the next week or so.
You can't expect unwilling grand parents to help. Reduce your expectations of them.
In my experience i did not want loads of people around my house after i had my children. They got on my nerves and i just wanted to spend hours starring at my lovely baby. Your parents may have very different views on bringing up a baby which might annoy you after a while. I think their plan to wait until baby is around 6 weeks is a good one. You will be in more of a routine and more sure of yourself as a mother. The first few weeks are for you and your partner to bond with the baby. Don't stress about housework. Babies are not too messy at that age.
Honestly from the sounds of it you will be better without them around.
Batch cook now, so there is stuff in the freezer for the first few weeks. Have some tins of soup ready.
Also worth considering breastfeeding and co-sleeping if you haven't already, as mothers who do both get the most sleep in the early months.
There's also a thread for those of us with CFS over in Health if you or your partner wanted some extra support adjusting to being a parent and balancing out the illness at the same time.
I think the OP is getting a hard time. If your child has a baby one day, would you really think sod it, do it all on your own no matter what the circumstances are. Or, do you remember what it was like if you were on your own and struggling yourself and think it might be nice to offer some support and practical help whether it's wanted or needed.
Had to get in with it in my own the first time and it was bloody tough, though my choice to live away and not have my mother come to stay. I've had friends from cultures whose families see it as their job to help the mother recover, they recognise that childbirth can be big thing and it takes it toll.
I was of the mindset that I would ask for help if needed, but certainly wasn´t of the thought that I would need it before I´d even had the baby.
When I was pregnant with my 2nd & they would be 21 months apart, my Mum assumed that I would want her to move in to help??
No I didn´t!
I wanted to wait & see.
At least you know they don't want to help now. Book a cleaner, batch cook and fill your freezer. Get lots of take-away menu's
You will be fine. As others have said, do as much as you can to prepare now. Have you got that nesting-type energy yet?
I found that often, the very little things helped as much as the big things. Could your DP manage holding the baby long enough for you to have a bath, bring you a cold drink whilst BFing (I was going to suggest a nice warm cup of tea but then realised where you live and when you're due!), stroke your achey bits etc?
I agree with someone who said to use the money you would have spent on your parents' fares to pay for help around the house for a few weeks.
I have two children, 10 months and 3.5 years. We have never had any help of any sort. Nobody has ever even made me a cup of tea. You'll cope!
Ooh actually popped back to say that I find this sort of entitled thinking a bit infuriating. I have friends who scarcely look after their own children with one being shipped off to inlaws while the other is left with parents while the mum has endless hours to kill at the beautician having this and that done. That in itself wouldn't wind me up, their life etc but the bit that pisses me off is then moaning and groaning about how hard it all is. I think that some mums are barely full grown themselves and expect everyone to be available to fuss over them and deliver food parcels (extraordinary for full grown adults I think), it's a good idea to remember who is meant to be the adult in this scenario. Fair enough if baby is sick or high needs or mum has PND or there's other difficult circumstances. Other than that mum up!!
YANBU to hope they might help but YABU to expect them to.
T'was nice though when DSIL and DBro came to visit and brought a yummy veggie lasagne with them !
medal for appletarts - you realise that this do it all on your own, no help from family is a fairly modern concept. women used to often get help and support from family. just cause you can and often don't have a choice to have help means that it's ideal to do so.
Blimey appletarts. Did you read the OP where she explained that her partner has chronic fatigue syndrome? Wouldn't it be a nice thing if her mum felt able to go and help them out with their first child? Not because they have a sense of entitlement, but simply because it is reasonable to think that a mum would want to help her daughter out? Isn't one of the benefits of having family is that they are there to support you if you need it? We don't all have to exist in independent bubbles.
But surely all this help was when people lived closer together and it was easier?
Maybe less appliances so housework was harder?
Often now GPs are still working themselves!
Thanks again all. Have been reading all your comments with interest.
I do just want to make it clear that I know the responsibility for looking after our child lies squarely with my DP and I, no-body else. Perhaps I was unclear in my OP; I'm not expecting or wanting to laze around on the couch like the Queen of Sheba while my mum hoovers under my feet and my dad feeds me chocolates. (Although, hey that does sound nice!).
Specifically what I said to my mum is that we were very excited to have them to share the joy of new bubs, and that if they could give us any help while they were here it would be wonderful. It was mum that took that to mean 'do all the housework' for us. That's not what I meant at all, just that we would be tired and focused on baby and not able to spend a lot of time being good hosts. The history here is that they have never been particularly supportive. When we were down at Christmas (and I was seven months pregnant) they let us stay with them which was lovely, but never even offered a cup of tea. They would cook their own meals at night and tell us there wasn't anything for us to eat.
I'm just really excited about this bub and wanted to share that excitement with them too. It was sad not to be able to, but I guess you can't force these things.
I think waiting to see what happens is excellent advice. We may be fine, they may be lovely and either way we will figure it out when the time comes.
My DP will certainly help with holding baby and bringing cups of tea/cool drinks and whatever. We just have to watch that she gets enough rest (haha!) but if she's not too sleep deprived she'll be ok. I've definitely got the nesting instinct although not the energy unfortunately. Our house looks like a bomb's hit it already .
"They would cook their own meals at night and tell us there wasn't anything for us to eat."
That's crazy and so rude.
I'm not expecting or wanting to laze around on the couch like the Queen of Sheba while my mum hoovers under my feet and my dad feeds me chocolates. (Although, hey that does sound nice!)
It does sound nice but it isn't going to happen.
bubs Netmums is that way >>>>>>>>>>>>>

Walking the Hall at LinuxWorld San Francisco
Linux enthusiasts gathered in San Francisco to learn about new tools, new initiatives, and even a new license.
The usual crowd of vendors, programmers, reporters, and Linux enthusiasts gathered at the Moscone Center in downtown San Francisco for the US West Coast LinuxWorld Conference and Expo. Organizers expected a turnout of around 11,000 visitors with 180 exhibitors on the show floor. Most of the usual companies were in attendance – including HP, IBM, Intel, Novell, Oracle, Red Hat, and Sun, as well as many smaller vendors. Some new names were also in evidence, including interesting tools such as Splunk, a log file management tool, and Black Dog, a tiny Linux device that piggybacks itself onto a host system by pretending to be a CD-ROM drive. Even Microsoft couldn't stay away. Although the Redmond giant kept its head low, Microsoft was around the fringes of the event, handing out invitations and squaring off with Google in a geek trivia game.

I enjoyed part 1 and 3, but 4 was a fetid turd and 2 was downright abysmal. So I can literally say I'm 50/50 on the franchise. I kind of wish the damn thing could get rebooted to something better though, the TMU just doesn't handle any of the characters well and is always too damn focused on humans, much like the IDW series, good stories can be told with the humans, but the best are the ones that focus on the Transformers themselves. Oh well, I guess I have the IDW franchise to keep me warm, hopefully the next movies don't suck like 4 and especially 2. I'm certainly not seeing any more in the theater though.
I would like an origin story, I'd actually like an origin series, focusing on the founding of the Decepticons, the war, and ultimately the fall of Cybertron.

ACM Interactive Surfaces and Spaces (ACM ISS 2017), formerly known as the ACM International Conference on Interactive Tabletops and Surfaces (ITS), is the premier venue for research in the design, development and use of new and emerging interactive surface technologies and interactive spaces.
ACM ISS 2017 welcomes original, high-quality research and industry contributions that advance the state-of-the-art in the area of interactive surfaces, interactive spaces and novel interface technologies. Beyond the traditional scope of the conference – i.e., interactive tabletops, large displays, mobile and mini devices – we also encourage submissions exploring approaches that use the space and technology around us to bridge the gap between our digital and everyday life, such as interactive 3D spaces, on-body sensors or interactive architecture. We embrace innovations in a wide variety of areas including design, software, hardware, understanding of use, and applications or deployments of such interactive systems.
The conference welcomes contributions that deal with a variety of interactive surfaces including tabletops, interactive wall displays, portable and micro devices, and deformable surfaces. We encourage submissions on (but not limited to) the following topic areas as they relate to interactive surfaces:
We invite paper submissions of papers with variable length (from 4 pages to a max. of 10 pages including references) of two possible types: academic and application (read on for an explanation of the difference). Paper length must be based on the weight of the contribution. A new idea presented in a compact format is more likely to be accepted than the same idea in a long format.
All papers must be submitted as a single PDF file in the ACM SIGCHI format (2014 version) through the submission system. Please note, that all paper submissions must be made in the 2014 version of the SIGCHI papers format (This format utilizes the "Lastname, F.M." author-name reference style, not the more recent "Firstname M. Lastname" convention.). When appropriate, authors are also highly encouraged to submit supplementary materials such as video or data.
Papers will undergo a high-quality peer-review process by a committee of recognized experts in order to be presented at the ISS conference, be included in the conference proceedings, and be archived in the ACM Digital Library. ACM ISS is ranked as an A conference according to the CORE Conference Ranking. ISS does not accept submissions that were published previously in formally reviewed publications or that are currently submitted elsewhere. Both full length and shorter papers go through the same review process.
For more details on academic and application papers see: Academic Papers and Application Papers.
Academic papers must present original, innovative, and forward-looking research. This kind of paper corresponds to the standard scientific track of most HCI conferences. In addition to innovative systems, interaction techniques and studies, we are also open to surveys and other work that discuss the philosophy, trends and community aspects of academic research in interactive surfaces and spaces.
Application papers are open to industrial and academic authors, and will successfully demonstrate how spatial interaction has been applied to real world problems and usage contexts beyond research labs, but without necessarily including original software, hardware, interaction techniques, or a formal study. For example, industry members can submit papers to share customer outcomes and iterative improvements over next-best alternatives. For application papers, reviewers will emphasize the connection between the real-world domain and the technology used. This connection may for instance concern a challenging domain, features of a system crucial for the real-world use context, a special design process, practical issues in implementation or deployment, or new business opportunities.
Application papers are published in the same format as academic papers (will be presented during the main conference program, will be archived in the ACM Digital Library which provides free access through its AuthorIzer service, and are free to publish), although they are reviewed through a slightly different process based on the following rubric:
Real-world Application: The paper clearly describes a concrete application of interactive surface technologies to a real-world domain. The domain is richly described and there is a clear fit between the application and its real-world context. The paper demonstrates a clear understanding of the audience and their needs / values / priorities.
Value Hypothesis: The paper clearly describes the goals of the design or application and how the features work together to enable users to accomplish their tasks.
Design Process and Principles: The design presented in the paper best exemplifies relevant patterns, principles and practices that have been proven in ITS community research. The links between research and application are clearly explained. Each iteration of the design process is clearly described; logical reasoning behind feature changes is articulated.
Next Best Alternative: The paper helps the reader understand the competitive design space, and what needs the application fills within that space.
First-time submitters in the application track are encouraged to apply for paper guidance well in advance of the submission deadline if deemed necessary (write to firstname.lastname@example.com).
ISS 2017 will have a "Best of ISS" awards program, in accordance with SIGCHI guidelines. We will hand out an award for the best long paper and best note, as well as for the best application paper. In addition, we will continue to award the paper from the Tabletop Workshop 2008 with a 10-year impact award.
All papers will be reviewed by at least two external reviewers and a member of the program committee. After the review cycle a submission will receive either a "Conditional Accept" or "Reject" decision. Some papers might be invited to do significant revisions. Please do not submit extended abstracts or incomplete papers. As in the past, submit the paper that you would like to have published. Incomplete, off-topic, or otherwise non-competitive submissions will be desk-rejected without review.
Submissions should use the format shown in the conference template. Submissions should be converted to PDF and uploaded to the Precision Conference system at https://new.precisionconference.com/sigchi by 10:00 p.m. Pacific Daylight Time on July 4, 2017. Abstracts have to be submitted one week earlier on June 28, 2017 using Precision Conference system.
Please note that we are using the new PCS 2.0 for paper submissions. To aid SIGCHI in the process of paper submission and management, this system and hence its interface is still in development. You are encouraged to report PCS 2.0 problems or to make interface suggestions to firstname.lastname@example.com.
When appropriate (such as for submissions introducing applications, novel systems, or interaction techniques), authors are encouraged to submit a supplementary video file (not to exceed 3 minutes in length and 50 MB in size).
All submissions should be anonymized for double-blind review. This means that your paper and any supplementary video materials should have authors' names and affiliations removed and should avoid obvious identifying features. Citations to your own relevant work should not be anonymous, but please cite such work without identifying yourself as the author. For example, say "Prior work by Smith et al. [1]" instead of "In my prior work".
Confidentiality of submitted material will be maintained. Upon acceptance, the titles, authorship, and abstracts of papers will be published online in the advance program. Submissions should contain no information or material that will be proprietary or confidential at the time of publication, and should cite no publication that will be proprietary or confidential at that time. Final versions of accepted papers must be formatted according to the instructions we provide. Copyright release forms must be signed for inclusion in the proceedings and in the ACM Digital Library.
For each accepted paper, at least one author is expected to register for the conference and to present the work.
Please also consider submissions to further ISS 2017 submission categories with later deadlines and separate calls including:

Problem with HTML fields?Asked by ChrisLinx on June 07, 2013 at 12:50 AM
Are there currently any known issues with HTML fields please?
When selecting a command such as font size on the formatting toolbar there is no drop-list & the the text disappears.
It returns after closing & re-opening the field but no formatting has taken place.
This appears to be a new problem as previously it worked OK. The only change here that could be relevant is installing IE10!! (but the formatting commands on this support form work fine).

Like how do you stop feeling this way.. :(
What do you do when you feel like The Ugliest Human Being on this Earth?
Have an opinion?
What Guys Said 9
I remember your face, you ain't ugly at all, I guess you are not feeling ugly, you are just bored form the way that you look because you want something new, so maybe change your hairstyle, but new clothes and you know? Do things like that which will make you look different than the way you look everyday, I guess this will end your feelings, but then again, I can ensure you that you are not ugly, and I'm being honest here.22|00|1
to me, i go to starbucks, thats my "go to" place for whenever im in that rock bottom spot. have me about 2 strawberry banana latte, and the 3rd to go. and even tho i feel like the ugliest person on the planet, i still manage to be giving compliments to women wh i think should get them. even tho i never get one back. most of the time that dont work on making me feel better, but still... at least i know i have a pure heart. then i would go to a place that over looks the valley, and just look at the street lights that are on and the signal lights turning colors, and that is was really makes me feel more calm.11|00|0
Just wait for it to pass and have faith in yourelf then your confidence will come back11|00|0
hope u r not talkin about yerself coz u r definetely not ugly... :D
but generally-speakin... i'd try to improve my mental-skills instead.. ok i know i'll never get laid being so ugly... so i'd try to contribute in some other way and not feel like trash00|00|0
Yeah, I was talking about myself. And you aren't ugly, don't say that..
i said generally speakin
Oh sorry.. Never mind..
Just think positive that's all you can do ,11|00|0

What Girls Said 11
There is more to life then looks. If you have a good career, are a good person and are a good mother when you have children - nobody will care that you are ugly in respectable society.22|00|0
Yea^ and then masturbate or cry it all out.
I go do something nice for someone else like help them clean their messy house. It takes the focus off of physical self image and redirects it to developing a beautiful character.11|00|0
i often feel like this too... i just deal with it..11|00|0
They're are times when you feel like that..
And then there are times when you feel like the prettiest.11|00|0
by stopping feeling so sorry for yourself. have a drink, wash your face and work out what you're gunna do about the way you feel.11|00|0
That's because things seems impossible to get.11|00|0
Let's see when I was 16, I just read books, listen to music, or do other things to get past those feelings?
You feel ugly? I've seen your picture, honestly you're one of the prettiest girl I've ever seen.11|00|0
Yeah.. I feel very ugly even though I know I'm not ugly (not the prettiest girl like you said :P but okay looking)
Don't know why.. :(
I feel like that too sometimes. Then I just try to stop focusing on my flaws and pampers myself, it works everytime xD
I get a makeover and buy new clothes. Or draw, write... or study astronomy22|00|1
listen to music, watch stand up comedy videos on youtube, see a movie, or watch a documentary11|00|0

Natural History of Virginia, Fig 1 Mixed Media Bird Art
A pileated woodpecker perches on a birch tree, layered over diverse textual screenprinting, in this mixed media artwork dedicated to Virginia's ecosystem.
*Title: Natural History of VA, Fig. 1
*Medium: acrylic + silkscreen on wood
*Size: 26.75" x 18"
*prints available upon request
"A Pileated Woodpecker climbs an old loblolly pine tree in southern Virginia. In the background, the words and text are from a few books I found in an abandoned house in western Virginia. The book was about the civil war and the children had written their names in the book, replacing their first names with important civil war generals. The cream corn colored symbol on the bottom left is an image I found in an old newspaper from West Virginia and then screen printed on the background. The symbol depicts a lion fighting a unicorn, an apt analogy for the way I often view man's interaction with mother nature: brute force fighting with something beautiful and rare."

Patriots Release New CD of Classic Recordings
Jimmy Carter was President in October of 1980 when the Bluegrass Patriots played their first gig in Fort Collins, Colorado.

Patriots to Play 2015/2016 Reunion Shows
The Bluegrass Patriots, one of the very, very few working bands in the bluegrass world to have testimony from the father himself. In history and tradition, for 35 years the Bluegrass Patriots, from Fort Collins, Colorado, have faithfully represented the unbroken circle that is bluegrass. But longevity is a reward reserved for those bands with the talent, drive, and class to sustain the highest levels of musicianship and entertainment. And like an old instrument, their sounds have grown sweeter through the years. Present as always in their show are the stunning lead and harmony vocals by all five members, the bluesy and punchy picking, well-penned originals, and folksy charm on stage. Slowed, they have not. Try to catch them if you can somewhere between California and Ireland.

Top Review by rosie316
I just made this to take on our extended cabin trip this coming weekend (I'm hoping it keeps beyond the 3 days). Hubby already tasted it and said it would be great on a gourmet camp-fire burger. I'm waiting for the flavors to meld and see if any additional seasoning is needed, but it already has a kick. Personally do not care for relish, but so far, so good. Quite a pretty condiment (I wish I could up-load pics from my camera phone). I have it in a jar, ready to go. I will let you know the over-all consensus after our trip. Thanks for posting.

Strawberry Coconut Muffins
READY IN: 25mins
Recipe by OceanIvy
Very easy to make!
Top Review by the6-sranch
These were good, but a little on the bland side of things. The recipe worked well, but it just needs "something" to make them more special. They weren't sweet enough for my tastes, but I know some people prefer muffins to be that way. My 8-year-old said they were "very satisfying," :) but my other two kids didn't think so.

If you have been charged with Assault and Battery by Means of a Dangerous Weapon (ABDW) you should know that it is a felony in Massachusetts with a potential penalty of imprisonment in the state prison for up to 10 years or in the house of correction for up to 2.5 years, or by a fine of not more than $5,000, or by both such fine and imprisonment.
For you to be convicted of ABDW the prosecutor must prove that 1.) that you touched the person of another, no matter how slight, without a right or an excuse to do so, 2.) that you intended to touch the other person, and 3.) that is was done so with a dangerous weapon.
What might be of some surprise to you is that any item can become a dangerous weapon. Over my years practicing criminal law I have seen some extreme and not so obvious items used to charge a person with ABDW. The law just provides that the item has to be used in a dangerous manner that could cause serious injury.
Criminal defense Criminal charges Felony crime Crimes against persons Criminal charges for assault and battery Domestic violence and criminal charges Criminal charges for kidnapping Defenses for criminal charges Criminal conviction Violent crime Prohibited weapons

Bernie accused of paying bribe.

*gasps loudl-I'm not surprised.
20th July 2011, 4:49 at 4:49 am
I don't think this is something new, I've heard about this before.
Of course, he's been "formally accused", this must be around for quite some time. Well, corruption is all around us; it's just a question of the justice catches them. Let's hope they do.
20th July 2011, 7:42 at 7:42 amParticipant
The news in that article is a. that Gribowsky has been formally accused only now (after a long period of the prosecution/police preparing that step) and it officially mentioned Bernie E. as the one paying the bribe (indicating he might be accused of paying bribes in the future).
It was expected that this step was prepared a few days back and timed by the prosecution right before the German GP to get maximum coverage in the media.
20th July 2011, 9:35 at 9:35 am
The level of corruption in the governing of F1 is just ridiculous.
20th July 2011, 10:01 at 10:01 amParticipant
The level of corruption in the governing of F1 is just ridiculous.
Actually, this is the first formal accusation of corruption in the sport. Ever. Everything else that has come beforehand has just been fans disagreeing with the way the sport is run.
20th July 2011, 10:22 at 10:22 am
To be honest this isn't the first time there have been accusations thrown at the credibility of the sport's management.
Bernie admitted that he charged Mclaren 100 million in spygate fines only due to a personal bias against Ron Dennis. Renault was accused of the same thing next year, and no action was taken against Bernie's buddy Flavio.
We have seen time and again the influence that Ferrari has had in bending, or changing, the rules as well. Getting team orders legalised, or banning innovations of their competitors has become really common.
I guess the point is that a bribe is not the only metric for measuring corruption in a sport. There have been enough scandals over the past 2 or 3 decades for us to know that the governing of the sport is unethical and corrupt.
20th July 2011, 11:16 at 11:16 amParticipant
To be honest this isn't the first time there have been accusations thrown at the credibility of the sport's management.
Credibility, yes. Corruption, no. Some fans are entirely too quick and too eager to throw the word "corruption" around simply because they don't like decisions that have been made. It's a very dangerous accusation to make if it's true, and all the moreso if it isn't. Just look at the USF1 saga – the team was quite clearly mis-managed, but a lot of people claimed that it was some kind of scam. Accusations of criminal misconduct or activity are not to be taken lightly, but some people cry foul the moment the FIA does something they disagree with and for no other reason than that they disagree with it.
20th July 2011, 11:47 at 11:47 amParticipant
Bernie had nothing to do with the FIA's handling of spygate, nor crashgate.
20th July 2011, 12:05 at 12:05 pm
@PM. I guess it depends on both our definitions of corruption. For me a bribe is only the 'caught red handed' version of corruption. I consider all the other decisions made by the sports management to serve their personal interest, rather than the sport's interest, a form of corruption.
20th July 2011, 12:10 at 12:10 pm
@alonsowdc. Bernie has a say, and a way, in everything regarding F1

For some reason, whenever you search for anything free online, you are inundated with sites created solely for collecting email addresses or for selling a product. This is especially true when it comes to sites on the Internet that offer free piano lessons. Unfortunately, almost 90 percent of the websites with "free piano lessons" in the title only offer one or two very basic lessons.
Ultimately, they want you to sign up for paid full-length piano lessons. Thankfully, there really are legitimate websites out there that do offer legitimate, free piano lessons. MakeUseOf has always offered some of the best resources for music lessons, such as Laurence's list of essential free guitar playing online tools Essential FREE Tools to Learn Guitar Playing Online Essential FREE Tools to Learn Guitar Playing Online Read More . Focusing on piano music, I offer MUO readers the following list of the top 5 free piano lesson websites online.
The Top 5 Websites for Learning Piano Online
This year, we are signing my youngest daughter up for piano lessons. In order to get her through the summer before lessons start, I decided to scour the web for free piano lessons. The problem, I quickly discovered, is that it's extremely difficult to find legitimate free piano lessons. However, after spending several days sifting through most of the online offerings, I came up with a list of five of the most useful and educational piano lessons around. My criteria for classifying a website with piano lessons as useful and "top-ranking" was the following.
- The quality and skill level of the website author's music expertise
- The "intent" of the website – does it only exist to sell you something or to actually teach you about playing piano?
- The technology – are there flash or java applications that let you actually play music based on the lesson at hand?
Using these criteria, I was able to isolate five very useful and high-quality piano lesson websites that anyone could use to teach themselves how to play piano.
Zebra Keys: Everything You Need on One Site
Zebra Keys is probably one of the best sites for piano lessons. Each of the lessons are professionally written and cleanly laid out so that they're very easy to follow. Best of all, an interactive piano keyboard is built right into the lesson articles so that you can practice what you're learning directly on the lesson page.
Each key is clearly laid out, and the letter of each note shows up just underneath the key – making it much easier to learn which note goes with each piano key. Once you've progressed through a few lessons and you want to try your hand at playing a song – Zebra Keys offers Z-Board V1.0, a virtual keyboard with all notes and chords displayed on it.
This makes it far easier to play music at the beginning, because you aren't struggling so hard to remember where the correct notes are. While this feature is definitely fun to use, probably the most useful and effective resource at the Zebra Keys website are the list of "trainer" tools that can help piano students with certain aspects of understanding music.
The example above is the interactive "note trainer," but other web applications available include the keyboard trainer, interval ear trainer, scale ear trainer, and a chord ear trainer.
PianoNanny: Better Than the Real Thing
One of the best sites for learning piano online is PianoNanny. This is one of those rare sites that offers the most detailed, expert piano lessons for absolutely free. Just reading through the lessons, you get the sense that you're sitting beside an actual piano teacher who really knows their stuff. Each session includes text, keyboard images to help you visualize what the teacher is talking about, and even mini-apps like a "student note pad" to take notes.
Another cool mini-app that you'll find in the middle of some of these lessons is a "12 note companion" where you can try the lesson that you just learned.
As you press each piano key, the note is automatically displayed. This approach forces you to try to remember where each note is, which of course encourages better memorization and faster learning than the approach ZebraKeys uses. Featuring 13 starter, 11 intermediate and 10 advanced lessons, PianoNanny is the most thorough of all the piano lesson websites listed in this article.
Plern Online Piano Teacher and Composer
The Plern Piano is easily one of the most addictive and, believe it or not, fun online tools that you can use to learn how to play piano. The Plern Piano tool has dual uses; music composers can create a song from scratch, or piano students can import music from a MIDI file to learn how to play a song. Plern Piano plays through the song and as it scrolls across the music sheet, it provides you with a graphical representation of which key you need to press as well as the duration of the note. Think Tetris in musical form.
BerkleeShares – Free Piano Lessons From the Berklee College of Music
Starting in 2003, the Berklee College of Music started offering free music lessons online. The lessons include guitar, brass, bass and even DJ & turntable training. When you click on the "keyboards" section, you'll find a list of 12 lessons in either YouTube video format or as a PDF document. The videos are about one to two minutes, and the PDF documents are an average of about 2 pages with embedded music clips.
For the most part, these lessons are very short, and feature a lot of promotion for the paid Berklee online certificate programs. However, they do offer excellent tips and useful content. This website is a good supplement, but don't count on teaching yourself how to play piano by using these very short and simple lessons alone.
Ricci Adams' MusicTheory Teaches You… Music Theory
MusicTheory is another very useful (and free) website that can teach you to play the piano. This website has 37 lessons, 10 "trainer" applications and 3 music utilities. The trainer applications on this website are exactly identical to those available at the Zebra Keys website but there are many more of them offered here. Best of all, the lessons are very thorough and offer a small keyboard app so that you can test some of the techniques you learn in each lesson.
The lessons are reminiscent of a Powerpoint presentation and you step through them in much the same way – by clicking an arrow on the screen. The lessons are clearly written by an expert and after going through these 37 piano lessons you're sure to advance in your piano playing with a very thorough awareness of music theory.

Sebra Key have a few usefull idéas. I think you can start of to thinking in different "paths" on the Improvisation site: See Arpeggio Chord Pattern, Broken Chord Pattern, Double Chord Pattern and Chord Inversion. It is a bit square, so don't just copy them, but try to use the idéa itself when you play on your own. Patterns.
The Dilemma.
Yes, Piano Nanny offers the most detailed piano lessons when it comes to the theory, such as the staff, time signatures, clefs, the staff, notes etc, etc, but the problem with Piano Nanny is the same as with all other "piano" sites whit the object to "learn" you play piano for free! - it doesn't teach you play piano! Other than the one finger waltz. Half hearted shit! Because playing piano is so much more then the theory.
Ok, everything is not darkness because you can still take advance of the site, learn yourself the basic stuff from Piano Nanny (mentioned above) but then you sit there again, scratching your head bloody and have to move on, searching other places. To learn yourself PLAY piano! So....you go on, doing like Larry Laffer - (the dude in the PC game Leisure Suit Larry), searching several wrong places and just find the same old F***** shit! Some shit is to simple to take note of, other things is to advanced for you on that terrible poor level you are after you finished Piano Nanny! And then it recycle, staring from square 1 again, and again, and again and................
That's the big problem try to teach yourself play piano! Especially from sites which are free.
( And i doubt pay sites is better. They only want your money!!) In the end it can only come to one thing, FRUSTRATION, and you give up!
In the end you may be glad to learn something.
Unfortunately ALL these sites are what you complained about - traps to get money!!!
Are there ANY webistes out there that arent full of flash videos and demands for money?
I'm surprised you have not included Hoffman Academy which is superb !
Hoffman Academy is paid. This article is for free versions.
Hello, any idea what happened to Piano Nanny? I started using it a few days ago and really liked it. Now the links I had saved cannot be found, and it looks like some other site has taken it over and completely bungled it up! The layout is different, it's covered with ads, and just generally much lower quality and less user friendly then the version that was up a few days ago.
The piano lessons sites I've seen want to teach jazz or pop once things start getting advanced,. i'm interested in picking up classical where I left off after about six plus years at age 14. Suggestions?
Thank you for sharing the information which I find very useful. I hope to learn to the piano to accompany my singing for family get-togethers!
I can finally play piano now thanks to the website PianoLearning.info - I have literally tried everything I found online to learn and I was considering giving the piano away to a friend when fortunately I found these lessons. I'm still quite a beginner but the learning instructions on PianoLearning.info are so easy to follow and feel I improve daily! The piano learning tips there are liberating, simple to grasp, and laid out in an easy to follow format. It got me playing in NO TIME! I have to admit that my husband was very skeptical when I told him I want to learn the piano, but now he is pretty darn impressed with the piano skills I've developed in such a short amount of time. I highly recommend it if you want to learn piano :) Best of luck!

I can't get this to work with wordpress.comAsked by rebeccasaniga on July 23, 2015 at 10:04 AM
I can't get thid to work with wordpress.com. I paste the code but when I publish and view the page it is blank. When I go back to edit, the code is gone.
This is a re-post of a comment on How to Embed a Form to Wordpress.com
You have to put the code in the "text" tab of your particular page.
This would also be the page/tab with the coding tab.
AS replied in the thread by jotitz, you need to paste the code in the text tab of the page you want to publish.
This allows the HTML code you paste to be processed correctly and will not be removed accidentally.
Thanks for the responses but I am switching from the visual tab to the text tab and pasting the code and then clicking publish. But when i view the page there is nothing there. Then when i go back to edit the page, the text is no longer in the text tab. It is blank.
JotForm Support
You have to paste the "Form URL" instead of the embed codes. For Wordpress.com hosted website, you don't need to embed the form, they do it for you automatically. Just paste the form URL and that's it.
I was able to do it. Here's a sample page: https://welvin.wordpress.com/contact/.
