I had been canvassing Palm Springs all morning passing out free
samples, but now with the sun high in the sky it was becoming dangerously
hot. But just acoss the street was a large apartment complex where I could
get rid of a lot samples and I pressed on. As I was wrapping the plastic
container of cereal around the doornob of the first apartment, the door
opened and a young slim black man appeared. He was naked except for thin
grey sweatpants and my eyes became riveted on a huge bulge at his crotch.
Surprised and flustered I stammered I was passing out free cereal samples
and handed him a package. He smiled showing perfectly even white teeth and
said, If I accept this generous offer, you must reciprocate with one of my
ice cold Margaritas.
He noticed my eyes locked on his groin and casually
stroked himself. Its really hot out, you look thirsty, come on in and wait
for the sun to go down some before you continue. I hesitated, looked up at
the blistering sun, then looked at his swelling crotch and as my heart
began to pound in fear and anticipation, I stepped inside.
Sensing my nervousness he told me to take a shower while he prepared
the drinks; he said he would wash and dry my clothes and promised to relax
me with a massage. The warm water felt soothing and when I left the shower
I did feel refreshed from the heat. I walked back out in the living room,
where he handed me a drink and said, You look even better in a towel than
you do in a tee shirt and jeans, but I bet youd look even better without
the towel.
He laughed as I blushed and drained my drink. Then he said, Im
in training for the hurdles and normally dont drink but this looks like
its going to be a very special occasion. The drink and his charming way
loosened me up and I laughed. I kept staring at the swelling in his sweats
which had become so pronounced it pushed the elastic away from his trimly
tapered waist I think I need another drink, I told him and he laughed.
Sure he said pouring me another which again I put quickly away. He put
his hand on my white hairless chest and I flinched. Relax he said, Im
about to give you a totally relaxing massage and he led me to his bedroom as my head spun from the drinks. We paused before a full length mirror.
Thats quite the contrast!, he said and it was. Two slender physically fit young men, one very dark, one very light.
Lie down on your stomach he said softly and from his night table he
took a bottle of baby oil. He sat on my ass and I could feel the heat from
his loins through his sweats as he slowly applied the baby oil to my
His fingertips danced and pinched lightly. As they moved slowly
down my back, I sighed in contentment even as he rolled his loins
rythmically on my ass. Thats it, relax he whispered softly in my ear, and
then he moved his loins slowly down my legs to my calfs. He slowly untied
the knot of my towel. exposing my buttocks. Whew! he exclaimed softly,
smearing his palms with baby oil, and slowly began kneading my buns. Over
and over, more and more insistently he rubbed, and then he spread my
cheeks and bent down and started running his tongue ever so slowly down my
crack. When he got to my anus his tongue drew ever smaller circles. I let
out a loud Oh! and raised my ass up to meet his tongue. His right hand
went from my hip and slowly worked its way to my crotch. He lightly ran
his fingertips along the tip of my cock, and it avidly rose to meet his
fingers. At the same time he tried to pry open my anus with his tongue.
slowly tickling the head of my swollen cock with his fingers, he was
slowly able to get his tongue past my sphincter. I was now groaning
loudly, but he suddenly stopped, disengaged, and pulled me to my feet.
This is going to be incredible, he said staring lustily into my eyes,
I have some dynamite pot that should completely lower your inhibitions.
Theres only a couple of hits left but if we pass the smoke back and forth
between us, it should get us ready for anything,and he once again stroked
the crack of my ass. He fired up the bong, deeply inhaled, put his mouth
over mine, and exhaled slowly, all the while caressing the tip of my
tongue with his. I felt a real rush to my brain. I was already very high
and I sent back the smoke taking care not to lose contact with his tongue.
After several more hits we both had a warm glow, and he put his arms
around me to keep me from falling and also to once again explore my anus
with his finger.
That feels so good. Im sooo high , I panted. Good! , he excaimed,
Now I can tell you my name. Im Captain Kirk and Im about to go boldly
where no man has gone before! We laughed and I pushed back at that ever
insistent finger probing my ass. Heres my first order. Ever since I saw
your slim blond bony body across the street , Ive had this severe swelling
between my legs, can you try to fix it? He let go my ass and started
rubbing my nipple and kissed me deeply. I looked down and once again saw
the incredible bulge in his sweats. I looked at him and he kissed me
softly, then I slowly slid down to my knees. I reached out and touched
the pulsing head through the sweats. How big it was! How warm it was! I
hooked my hands in the waistband of his sweats and slowly pulled them
His dick sprang out and up ramrod straight. I gasped. It must have
been 12 inches and over 2 inches across. I flinched in fear. I felt this
hand stroking my hair and he said, Pretend your in a hot desert and very
thirsty, there is a large black faucet and if you can open it, you will
quench your thirst. He then pulled my head gently forward till my mouth
was right at the tip of his cock. I began to lick the very tip of his cock
and some clear liquid came out of his slit. I licked it up slowly. The
salty taste and his low groans emboldened me, and I licked the whole head
while running my fingers along his broad long shaft much like I was
playing a flute. I put one ball in each hand playfully stroking and
squeezing. This caused the head to swell and throb.
I ran the tip of my
tongue down the underside of his cock
until I pushed it between his balls all the while caressing and squeezing
his balls with my hands. I looked down to see my own cock was now rock
hard and knew that I had passed an important threshold. I was aroused and
excited about what I was doing to this massive cock. I retraced my tongue
along the underside of his cock until I got to the head and once again was
rewarded with another taste of salty fluid. I then pursed my lips into an
O and pushed them against the head of his cock.
I rocked back and forth
over his head all the while licking his underside and stroking his balls.
His pulsing head swelled ever larger as it slowly pushed into my mouth. I
thought I was going to suffocate but I eagerly sucked, and sucked, and
He groaned and slowly disengaged my head from his cock. He raised me
up to his face and kissed me fully. I was really aroused, and kissed back
fully all the while running my hands possessively along his throbbing
prize. Were going to have to try something else, he said with a smile, The
swelling just isnt going down. He lit the bong and we both had another
incredible rush. I swooned and quickly knelt down and licked the tip of
his dick and was again rewarded with a salty drink of fluid.
He raised me
up and said Are you ready for something new?. I was so high and so horny
I moaned, Oh anything, anything! He moved around behind me and reached
under my ass and tickled my balls. Spread your legs a little he whispered
as he caressed my buns with his other hand. I then felt him press his cock
against the crack in my ass and slowly rub it up and down till he got to
my anus. He felt me tense and said, Relax, Im going to fuck you the way
you were sucking me, slowly and carefully, but deeply and thoroughly. He
then reached over to his bureau and got a gob of vaseline with his index
finger. He pushed this finger against my anus rubbing the edges until it
was slippery. He then slowly pushed his finger in to the first knuckle,
but my sphincter locked on him. This is going to be heaven, he exclaimed
and reached under my ass with his other hand and tickled my balls. He
then kissed me passionately and implored me to let myself go.
He slowly
inserted a second well lubricated finger, waited till I had accepted it,
and then started wagging them back and forth all the while pushing in.
They got past my sphincter and then he began to twist them back and forth
like a washing machine. As he tried to pull them out, My sphincter
tightened, and he slowly pushed them in and out till finally the sphincter
relaxed.When my ass began to eagerly move against those vibrating fingers
he bade me to rub vaseline all over his cock in an aroused urgent voice.
It was great holding that throbbing cock once again and I began twisting
his engorged head as he was twisting his fingers inside my ass. He pulled
his fingers out and placed his cock against my anus. Push against it, he
said huskily and he put one hand on my cock and the other rubbed my
nipple. Slowly, slowly I felt my anus being stretched open as he pushed
back and forth against it, urgently pleading with me to let myself go as
he tweaked my nipple and brushed my cock with his fingertips. As his
cockhead became engorged, he grabbed me with both hands on my hips and
pushed in. I cried out in pain; bathed in sweat I begged him to let me go.
Oh! what a tight ass he moaned. But he stopped and began to slowly massage
my cock. Look in the mirror he exclaimed. A strange thrill went through
me when I saw this massive black cock poised to plunder my ass. He was
going to have his way with me and there was nothing I could do about it.
My vulnerability made me shudder in anticipation..
Oh this feels so good, youve tightening down so hard on my dick, but Im
going to fill your ass with my cock., he shouted.
He was becoming more
excited, and he made me bend over, and he started rolling his hips around
a little faster. He started kneading my buns firmly pushing them against
his shaft all the while probing further and further and exhorting me to
push back. Then he let out a low whistle as he firmly grasped my hips and
started to thrust in and out faster and faster in short strokes. Look in
the mirror he yelled only 2 more inches before your beautiful tight ass is
mine. Get down on your hands and knees, I,m going to ride it home.
that he wrapped his arms tightly around my chest for his final push. Push
back! Give me it all! he yelled as he pushed down on me. and then he
For several minutes he slowly caressed and kissed my back. I felt no
pain, but enormous pressure in my ass. I couldnt believe I felt his balls
against my ass. I had absorbed his whole cock. He then reached up and
brought down a little bottle and unscrewed the cap. This is amyl nitrate,
inhale it. It will completely relax you. he whispered. I took a deep
whiff and my head expoded. He embraced me with both arms tightly around my
chest, and said, here we go. He slowly started pulling his cock out and it
felt like my guts were being pulled out with it. He then pushed slowly
back in all the way and ground his hips around.
He pulled further out,
and then pushed back in harder. Out and in; out and in. I picked up his
rhythm and pushed my ass back to greet his plunges. Thats it! take
another hit of amyl. he said. Once more my head exploded but now the only
thing I cared about was his hot cock fucking and fucking me. He pulled out
to the edge of my ass and when Id
push my ass back to keep him from pulling out, he would drive his cock
back up my ass to the hilt. Again and again, he delivered those long hard
My continuous loud moaning seemed to really turn him on.
He started to
yell, give me that ass and then he would grunt like a wild beast while he
thrust in as deep as he could.
He then stopped and pulled completely out. A loud plopping noise
and my loud groan reinforced in him his complete mastery over me and he
pulled me to my feet. Id have liked to stay in there forever . he said as
he pinched my buttock, but Ive got practice. However Ive got such a load
of pudding that even in this heat youll never be thirsty again With his
massive cock standing straight out, he reached for the bong. As he watched
me stare at his cock in disbelief, he smiled and said, Its all ready, and
its all yours.
We passed the smoke between our mouths, and I sank to my
knees. There it was. The swollen head an inch from my lips and the veins
protruding along the shaft. I flicked my tongue at the tip of his slit and
his cock jumped. My hands cupped his balls. They were so big and hard and
full; he began to moan loudly as I stroked and pinched them. I was so
turned on. My own cock began throbbing, and I began to stroke myself
feverishly as I nipped and licked the head of his cock.
I opened my mouth
wide, the head was so engorged that it barely fit. As I slowly sucked and
licked the head, his
cock began to throb uncontrollably, and I redoubled the effort on my own
cock. His legs started to shake spasmodically, and he started to groan
louder and louder. My own seed shot into the air just as a torrent of
cream filled my mouth. I swallowed again and again until at last it
subsided. I licked the tip of his cock one last time. That black faucet
worked fine and my thirst was slaked, but a different kind of thirst had
replaced it.

NFL 2011 Season – Week Five Preview
The NFL enters week five of its 2011 season — its first bye week — with just two unbeaten teams: the defending Super Bowl champion Green Bay Packers and the upstart Detroit Lions. Both teams

The leading names of the Bluegrass genre gathered on Thursday for the 22nd annual International Bluegrass Music Association Awards, handing out honors to legends (including Del McCoury, who entered the Bluegrass Hall of Fame) and "newer" artists like Steve Martin, who took home the Entertainer of the Year award for his second full-length album of bluegrass instrumentals.
It was a record-setting week for several players, and the Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions are the only remaining unbeaten teams after week four of the NFL's 2011 season. Here'
The 2011 NFL season has been unpredictable thus far. After three weeks, a team that missed the playoffs in 2010 is at the top, or tied for the lead, in every division in both the AFC and NFC
Week Three of the 2011 NFL schedule kicks off the first weekend of fall. Two games feature undefeated teams pitted against each other, while several, key intra-divisional rivalries meet for the first time this season. Meanwhile, winless teams are scrambling to save their 2011 season before it's too late.
You already know Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood are going to return for another round as hosts when the 45th annual CMA Awards roll around this year. But with the gala ceremony looming on the calendar, we still don't know which performers will be joining them on stage.
Well, the night's full lineup is still a closely guarded secret, but the first few names have been announced and it looks like viewers are in for another year of top-notch entertainment.
'Modern Family' ruled the 2011 Emmys — the ABC comedy took home the first four awards of the evening, including Outstanding Supporting Actor and Actress in a Comedy Series and, later in the night, winning Outstanding Comedy Series.
The stars of the small screen turned out for the 2011 Emmy Awards in Los Angeles Sunday evening, dressed to the nines for television's big night. Taking a cue from the carpet's hue, starlets like Lea Michele ('Glee'), Nina Dobrev ('The Vampire Diaries') and Kate Winslet ('Mildred Pierce') showed up in red gowns and trains were in too, with actresses including Kristen Wiig ('Saturday Night Live'), Christina Hendricks ('Mad Men') and Cobie Smulders ('How I Met Your Mother') sporting floor-sweeping hemlines.
With three nominated shows, NBC leads the pack for this category. Our money's on ABC, though, for a repeat from last year's winner 'Modern Family,' but NBC's critical darling 'Parks and Recreation' could pull an upset. Here are all the nominees:

After players used week one of the 2011 NFL season to reward the football faithful with NFL records for passing yards, special-team return touchdowns and sacks, week two brings several early season games that could be future playoff, or, perhaps, conference championship previews. With temperatures turning fall-like in the east, fans will likely be treated to great football in near-perfect football weather.
The Canadian country music scene is arguably best known as the breeding ground for Shania Twain's early work, but there's a lot more to it than that — and the Canadian Country Music Awards have been working to get that message across since they were founded in 1976.
This year's crop of CCMA winners were announced Sunday night, in a ceremony that included appearances from Ronnie Dunn and Derric Rutan, as well as performances from Luke Bryan and Johnny Reid.

Mr. McGOVERN. Madam Speaker, here we go again. Another day in the House of Representatives and another day without a jobs bill. It's almost March, and my Republican colleagues who control this House still have not put a meaningful jobs bill on the floor. In fact, their best chance of passing a jobs bill could have been the highway reauthorization bill, but they screwed that up so badly that they had to yank it off the floor before an embarrassing bipartisan defeat.
So what are we doing today? Well, Madam Speaker, today, we're considering a bill targeting Department of Education regulations defining credit hours and setting minimum requirements that all higher education institutions must meet to be considered authorized by a State. We're targeting Department of Education regulations. We're not considering a jobs bill. There's no new, bipartisan highway bill. There's no bill that helps put cops, firefighters, and librarians back to work. And there's no new bill that helps train workers for the future.
The economy may be inching along, recovering slowly, but it still needs some help. We need a real, comprehensive jobs package. Instead, we just get a bill to dismantle a few regulations with no attempt to make our education system better. This is no way to run the House of Representatives.
Let's look at where we've been. They started off the new Congress with their health care repeal and replace, but we're still waiting on the replace part. To be clear, Republicans voted to take away health protections for seniors, they voted to take away health care protections for young people under 26, and they voted to take away health care protections for those with preexisting conditions, but they haven't proposed anything to replace those important provisions.
Since then, the Republican leadership has played legislative Russian roulette with our economy by holding the debt limit discussions hostage, by holding up the payroll tax cut and unemployment insurance extensions multiple times, and, most recently, by proposing the most partisan highway reauthorization bill I think in the history of this Congress.
On top of that, the Republican leadership has wasted our time by debating resolutions to defund National Public Radio and Planned Parenthood. We have debated resolutions making it easier for unsafe people to carry concealed weapons across State lines. We've spent a good period of time on this House floor debating a bill to reaffirm our national motto. And soon we'll probably vote on a bill to restrict contraception, another attack on women's health by this Republican-controlled House.
Madam Speaker, there are more important things we should be doing, and, yes, education should be something we debate. I'm all for bills improving our education system. In fact, I'd welcome the opportunity to act in a bipartisan way to improve our school systems across the board. What we should be talking about today is college affordability. What we should be talking about today are ways to ensure that every single American student has access to a quality education. And despite what Republican Senator Rick Santorum might think, it's not snobby to try to make sure our students have access to the best education possible.
What we should be considering on the floor of the House today is legislation to extend the tax deduction for tuition and fees that families across this country rely on to help bear the incredible burden of rising tuition costs. This deduction, Madam Speaker, of up to
$4,000 expired at the end of last year, and congressional action is required to extend this tax benefit past the 2011 tax year. But that is not what we are considering today on the House floor.
We should also be considering legislation to prevent the looming increase in subsidized Stafford student loan rates--from 3.4 percent to 6.8 percent--that will occur if Congress does not act before July 1, 2012. These need-based loans are critical for students who might otherwise be unable to attend college, and we should act now on legislation to stop the doubling of their interest rates. But, Madam Speaker, that is not what we are doing today.
Republican Governors, including the head of the Republican Governors Association, Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell, overwhelmingly support President Obama's college education agenda. But in the House of Representatives, all we see is an effort to attack and dismantle the President's initiatives and no attempt to actually make college more accessible and more affordable.
Madam Speaker, this is just another squandered opportunity by this Republican Congress. I issue poscan't say I'm surprised, but I am disappointed. It is time for us to work in a bipartisan way to focus on how to get this economy moving again and to focus on jobs. And when we focus on education, let's focus on issues that will make a real difference in the lives of our young people.
I reserve the balance of my time.

I have an old car and the car wouldn't shift gears and was making an awful awful loud noise. The mechanic said the transmission is dead. Did this ever happen to you? Ah it's so bad.
Most Helpful Guy
We have had a car transmission give trouble before. However, the brand of car that is famous for having its transmissions die is anything that is made by Audi. Audi cars have a name for their transmission dying.00|00|0
That's not true.
- Show AllShow Less
@MaybeNot1 you are the one that can't have a conversation because you won't accept that German cars have a bad reputation in my country. You were also being rude. It is rude to laugh at someone just because you don't agree with them. I have had enough with this you won't listen anyway, you are the one killing the conversation not me. I never said your car was unreliable all I said is German cars have a bad name for reliability in my country because they do. You just don't want to accept they have a bad name here among a lot of people. You also avoided my question. So you are the one that can't have the conversation.
@MaybeNot1 Like I have told you already I have seen countless German cars giving problems. You also might want to take a look at the car reliability study it also says German cars are among the most unreliable.
Most Helpful Girl
Luckily enough no, that has never happened to me. You can either get that replaced (will probably cost you a couple of grand) or sell the car for scrap.00|00|0

While current netbooks are already rapidly capturing the attention and credit cards of savvy travelers, the addition of multi-touch support in Windows 7 could be the spark that sets off a firestorm of netbook purchases later this year. The cost of adding capacitive touch-screen functionality to diminutive screens will be much less than with laptop and desktop monitors with their relatively large surfaces. The Touch feature set is only available with Windows 7 Home Premium and higher Windows editions, which adds to the overall cost; however people buy netbooks as much for portability as for price. People purchasing based on size and features and will be willing to spend the extra $100 or so for significantly improved usability.

But check out the super cute Witch's Hat!! I too, was going to make this to wear, and I bought a plastic headband... but that didn't look too cute... so I opted to use it as a luminary instead!
I used my newest favorite cartridge Artiste, and cut the hat at 7" the biggest it would cut... I didn't fill in the stars, so it made it perfect to put a battery operated candle on the inside... I used a black boa and hot glued around the edges, and then a cute bow using my Bow Dabra and placed a little black crow in the middle of it. I kept thinking it needed something else... but I thought maybe this once, I would go simple... What do you think??
I love to read your comments!! Hint, hint!!
|All lit up!
|Inside of hat... my hubby thought the inside was better than the outside??

I didn't like what I saw in beta at all. Most likely this has to do with the fatigue system, the guildleve cooldown, or SE not putting in an AH! I decided I needed the attention, so I am posting another thread despite there being dozens already. I even will use the same reasons, just restated in my own words. Heck, I probably could have just copied and pasted from one of the posts already here.
Even though I flat out say that I'm going to cancel my preorder, I'm going to take offense if someone responds to this bidding me good-bye. I don't want to insult people who genuinely like this game, but seriously people, are you just going to like a game I don't like just because it says "Final Fantasy" on it? I bet you liked Final Fantasy 13 as well, as only foolish fanboys would have liked playing 13.
Now here's why I don't want to play:
1. Thing that's missing. I mean, seriously, I can go into any game store and find any POS game and it will have this. I hate game developers that try new things, because trying new things is breaking away from the "it works" rut. I mean, obviously, if it ain't broken, don't fix it right? Just ignore that there were people that didn't like how this thing that's missing in beta was implemented in other games.
2. Game mechanic I don't like. The game developers should be catering to how people want to play, developing a system that would encourage people to play parts of the game they don't want to play before trying it. If I ever got into a D&D game and didn't get to play the way I got to, but had to follow the story outline my DM designed, I'd just throw a huge hissy fit and leave. Heck, I eat only junk food and drink only high sugar energy drinks because when I was younger I screamed so much about my parents trying to expand my palate that they finally caved and let me do as I wish.
3. ....
That was fun.

Food quality
Room quality
Twin room
We had a spacious twin room on the third floor.
It was clean and surprisingly quiet, considering there was a club opposite. The hotel isn't far from The Lanes car park which was convenient, and close to a number of restaurants. We usually stay at another hotel on the front but will return to this one in future. The buffet breakfast was good too. We didn't have time to use the Spa so can't comment on that.

Room comments
Great rooms with lovely views.
The adjoining room was rather sparsely furnished (side lights would have been nice). But it was a lovely big room and perfectly adequate.

Queens Hotel and Spa
The hotel it's ok.
But the first day they give us a room were a night club guest on the other side of the road from us, we cod not slept until 03:30 was too noisy, but after we complain they put us in a better room. After that was much better.

A little disappointing
Lovely setting on the seafront and parking very close by.
The staff were very friendly and helpful over the phone. The room was a little disappointing. The view was lovely but the carpets were extremely stained and the furniture was tired and worn. The foot of the bed had white marks on and there was something splattered up the wall in the bathroom. The back of the curtains were very stained. The bathroom sinks were marked. The jacuzzi bath was nice. It needed to be as we had a very disturbed night and early morning with all the noise from outside. Shouting, laughing, arguing, and lorries throughout the night and then workmen right under our bedroom window before 8am loading wheelbarrows into their digger so I gave up on a lie in and had a bath to try and calm down.
Unfortunately after all of that we had a luke warm cooked breakfast. When we left the hotel we were not asked how our stay had been. I am assuming the staff could have had several complaints so maybe didn't want to ask.
In general the hotel is in a great position for exploring Brighton and has great potential. We felt the hotel requires some tlc. We would stay again if the rooms were updated as the hotel is handy for shopping and seeing shows etc. We wouldn't recommend the hotel as it is now.
Read More Less
The hotel was in a perfect location for the lanes, restaurants, bars, shops, pier and sea front.
The staff were all very friendly and helpful. We only eat breakfast in the hotel, which has plenty of choice. My only comment would be carpets in the hallway and the paintwork needs an update.

Queens Hotel Brighton
Good value hotel, especially with a Sea View room.
Some of the bedroom furniture is a little tired but not a problem. Buffet breakfast also okay and eggs - other than the awful pre-made scrambled variety - are available if you ask.

A home from home,great atmosphere and easy fellow guests. Got more than I expected.Location location
Thanks to all the staff who gave us the opportunity to relax.
Although it was only one day. I will not hesitate to recommend the Queens hotel.
Until the next time. Nick& Jo

Perfect for a last minuet stay by the sea
Great view from the room of pier and beach, frendly and helpful staff, didn't get to use pool but looked good, only down side was the over subscribed breakfast, ended up going elsewhere but Brighton has excellent places to eat so wasn't a proble, will be back again soon
Queens Hotel and Spa
I thought the hotel and location were lovely, the room was great however it might have been better if the bed was a kingsize and for the money charged it would have been nice to have robes to wear to the pool and maybe a few more of the luxury items in the room , the breakfast was terrific probably one of the best I have had.
Excellent hotel
Although the exterior of the hotel requires a little tender, loving care, tthe friendly and curteous staff, the high level of cleanliness throughout and good selection of breakfast choices far exceed the importance of the external appearance.

Big News Of The WeekEdit
Class Balance Concerns Are Back With A Vengence
Remember those heady days of controversy in WoW, way back in 2005 when warlocks could single-handedly take out entire parties of other players in PvP, and feral druids and paladins were laughed out of town? Well, a sense of nostalgia for class imbalance controversy has overtaken the entire World of Warcraft recently, and this last week saw an eruption in unusually high volume to the shouting. What's all the shouting about?
Here's the pre-nerf/buff chart of DPS ranges we discussed in this segment:
Rumors And ScuttlebuttEdit
Blizzard Returns With Dev Twitter Chat Part 2: The ReckoningEdit
J. Allen Brack and Greg "Ghostcrawler" Street face the World of Warcraft again this evening on Twitter. Since we're recording a few hours before their public chat – it's happening today, Friday, January 15, at 5:00 p.m. PST – we could only speculate. Here is a link to the archived chat.
Mandatory Authentication Feels Kinda FunnyEdit
Nick Kolan over at IGN ran an article last week that began with this quote: Rumors spread on Friday of Blizzard Entertainment's plans to make their authenticators mandatory, in an apparent attempt to stem the plague of compromised accounts that have Blizzard's customer service backlogged for days. As of yet there has been no confirmation of the legitimacy of these rumors, but if true, it may prove to be a larger hurdle than most people think." The rumor was indeed widespread, and talk of mandatory multi-factor security for WoW was all the rage over this past weekend.
Town CryerEdit
Lau D. writes: Just wondering your take on this. I am in a great guild and I love it. I do not use add-ons because I don't want to deal with the risk of using them or the unpleasantness that can result from trying to get an issue resolved with the game because an Add on messed something up. I don't think there is anything wrong with playing the game as it was made, but it has come up in my guild that some members feel that certain mods and ventrillo should be a requirement for raiding. While I love vent and I understand why people would want mods, I don't feel this should be the case. It seems wrong to me to require ppl to use add ons. It should be a personal choice, they are suppliments to the game, not part of it. How do you guys feel about this? I know you use a ton so I thought it would be interesting to know.
Drop Of The WeekEdit
Poseurs In The Armory!Edit
Blizzard updated the WoW Armory this week with some features that you may want to look into. Specifically, there is now an interactive 3D model viewer built into the WoW Armory. You can see any character in the gear he or she was wearing at logout, complete with correct face, hairstyle and colorings, and get this – you can pose your own character however you like for others to see. The new features include the ability to cycle through animations for your character and see her doing what she does in game, and thoughtfully includes embed code so you can take your character elsewhere on the web!

Personally I really really don't care about homosexuals or what is happening to them, but I can see that more and more people are attacking gay people and i really don't understand why? Most of them are religious, I can see that, and I can't stand them. But from a free thinker position, why do you think they should be mocked? let me explain you my point of view better. I'm walking on the park and I see a couple kissing and i don't care, I see a gay couple kissing*I don't care*(unless they are lesbians, than my uhmm... moral will em... rise) but any way, If I see a girl dress like a man, there would be no problem, if i see a man dressed like a girl than my cringe will have a cringe.
- We should attack them!8%(1)6%(1)Vote0%(0)
- We shouldn't care.54%(7)53%(9)Vote50%(2)
- We should defend them.38%(5)41%(7)Vote50%(2)
Most Helpful Girl
A combination of the last two. They're just people. What gender they love shouldn't matter. And like any wrongdoing, we should help build them up when others are tearing them down.21|10|0
Most Helpful Guy
We should defend them because ehm what's worse a guy dressed as girl but behaving himself, or someone who robs people with violence?11|00|0
That's not an explanation, what has a guy who robs people with violence doing here? It's like you responding to :"Should we eat apples of should we not?" with "We should because I hate peaches" There is no context to it, and no connection.
I'm just saying that I don't see why we shouldn't defend them. They're just people. Homosexual... it's their choice. But I think we should defend them. I mean, why shouldn't we? They do nothing wrong, compared to robbers and all that. That's what I'm trying to say
Yes you are right, they did nothing wrong for just being gay, but if there are people who want to harm them, they should manage themselves like any other person. I bet that if no one will give a fuck about them anymore, there will be less and less anti-gay people. I feel like the media doesn't help, they are showing them too much. Personally I don't care if someone is gay, or a different race or sex, if you are nice to me i will be nice to you.

Kick Pick Of The Week: Air Jordan III "Black Flip"
There's no denying the iconic status of the Air Jordan III. Originally released way back in 1988, the kick possessed two firsts which would later become staples for Brand Jordan in the form of a visible air-sole unit in the heel, and elephant print on the heel and toe panels. The shoe was designed by then Nike upstart, now venerated Nike legend Tinker Hatfield and combined aesthetic beauty with technological savvy to create one of the most storied sneakers in history. Today, we see brand new addition to the Jordan III family in the form of the Air Jordan III "Black Flip." While the legendary silhouette has been maintained, the print blocking has been flipped from the original with the body of the kick receiving the all-over elephant treatment. The hell and toe panels are laced in pebbled leather for a striking overall look. This one receives Kick Pick Of The Week status for taking a bold stab at a classic kick. Be on the lookout for a release soon, and expect the release to come with a requisite amount of chagrin from Jordan Brand purists.

A Frenchman who works for his native government in China is accused of spying after it emerges that he has told his Chinese lover top secret information. As if that wasn't enough of a shock for him, he then discovers his lover is not actually a woman but a man.
In 1986 a Frenchman was convicted of espionage, having blurted state secrets to his Mata Hari-like Chinese lover, a former opera singer. The unusual aspect of the story was that the seductive spy sustained a lengthy and intimate relationship without ever revealing to the duped diplomat that "she" was actually a man.
Chinese-American writer David Henry Hwang fictionalised the story as the basis for his successful play, which David Cronenberg has now translated into a blankly peculiar film. Jeremy Irons manages to be convincingly haunted and obsessed, tentative enough in his marriage and job as a spymaster to suggest an identity on the point of collapse. But John Lone, who gives a marvellous performance, is let down by his face, almost always suggesting a man in drag rather than true androgyny.
In focusing intently on the central relationship, the film loses its grip on everything else. Secondary characters such as Irons' wife (Sukowa) disappear without trace, and major historical events are hurried over in single unresonant scenes. By ignoring the espionage angle in favour of the impossible love, we wind up with a movie which explains how Irons can fall for a woman who is really a man but never answers the question of how he could betray his country. The end result, while not entirely unrewarding, is another step away from the singular vision Cronenberg once expressed even in his marginal works.
Although the puzzling relationship between Irons and Lone does deserve much attention, the film is set in an important historical period and yet several events are just skipped over as if they don't even register. Irons gives a strong performance while it's a shame Lone didn't more androgynous.
