Women's World Cup Knockout Stage
Germany 0-1 Japan AET
Japan stunned host nation Germany with an incredible extra-time win to knock the holders out of the Women's World Cup at the quarter-final stage. It is the first time the east Asian country have reached the last four of the tournament.
Unsurprisingly, it was the home side who started brighter, shrugged off an injury to Kim Kulig and almost went ahead through Okoyino Da Mbabi. But she was denied by the outstretched hand of Japanese goalkeeper Ayumi Kaihori.
Germany continued to pressurise with Mbabi and skipper Kerstin Garefrekes spurning chances as Japan struggled to settle for most of the first-half; their best opportunity came on the half-hour mark through Yuki Nagasato.
The second-half delivered no breakthrough despite a late German surge in the dying minutes of normal time and extra-time beckoned as the 23,000-strong crowd in Wolfsburg's VW-Arena watched on nervously.
Unfortunately for the home fans, the extra 30 minutes did not bring the desired result. Three minutes into the second period of extra-time, substitute Karina Maruyama latched onto a long ball and found the corner with an accurate finish to break German hearts.
England 1-1 France AET (France won 4-3 on penalties)
After England and France could not be separated after 120 minutes of football that saw a dramatic 88th minute equaliser from Elise Bussaglia cancel out Jill Scott's opener, the French triumphed on penalties following misses from Claire Rafferty and Faye White during the shoot-out.

West Texas Tattoo Convention: On the Road from San Angelo, Texas
By John After a week-long stay in Austin, Texas (ATX) following the Star of Texas Convention, I jumped in a cargo van and drove out to the West Texas Tattoo Convention in San Angelo. It turned out that a few people from the ATX show also made the scary journey through the west Texas dessert, including Richard Stell, Rock of Ages, Austin Tattoo Co., Electric 13 Tattoo and Triple Crown Tattoo. I'm sure there were others and I apologize for not mentioning you here.Read More »
Star of Texas Tattoo Art Revival: On the Road from Austin, Texas
By John It happened as soon as I landed in Austin, Texas. Not the Star of Texas Tattoo Art Revival– that would start the following day… however it didn't take long to see some friendly faces, deep in the heart of Texas. I was posted up in baggage claim, doing my normal multi-tasking: texting, listening to music, checking e-mails, playing Words With Friends (you know) the usual mindless activities while I waited for the baggage gods to release my personals.Read More »
Crowbar's Kirk Windstein Talks About Tattoos, Rock Music and New Album, Sever The Wicked Hand
By Rose Riot I chat almost daily with my friend and rock aficionado Don creator of, The Great Southern Brainfart blog. He and I met while shooting at a concert in the summer and in a recent conversation he asked if I was going to cover Crowbar. I had heard of them, but didn't know their music. Don proceeds to rattle of an impressive list of adjectives to describe them. While he was still listing Crowbar's attributes, I managed to find and listen to them (thank you technology). Within minutes, I knew that Don was a genius and I wanted to cover them.Read More »
Jason Tyler Grace, On the Road: Part I (Photos)
Last year I decided that I wanted to leave the States and try to travel around the world. I sold pretty much everything I owned and I have been traveling in South America for 11 months now. In the beginning I was traveling with a girl and was not as focused on tattooing as I am now, tattooing was always meant to be a huge part of the trip (the main focus) to see if I could make it around the world, working as I went. But pussy has a strong pull on a man…Read More »
The Geometric Tattoo Wizard – Thomas Hooper Article
Thomas Hooper is one of the most influential artists of our time. His application of sacred geometry and mandala styles, mixed with solid tattoo fundamentals and a virtually all-black palette on large-scale work has help ignite an entire movement in the tattoo world. Below is a short excerpt from Thomas' TAM interview – Thomas Hooper: Something I'm very aware of is that I get to do a lot of work that the client didn't ask for. I get away with doing tattoos on people that might be a good idea from a certain point of view (mine!),but I have to talk them into seeing what I see and make them believe it's going to be great. The amount of self-confidence required for this in any other case, I would consider as arrogance, but it's this firm belief that what I am trying to do will look good that allows me to get my ideas into their skin, so I'm left with the question, what am I? Artist, asshole or both?Read More »
Robert Ryan Article Preview for Tattoo Artist Magazine Issue #23 (Photos)
Initiation: You enter the shop and auditory impressions hit you right away. The tattoo machine is humming it's in a distinct key, the sound you are hearing took a long time for the person who is using the machine to figure out how to perfect. A good tuned machine will resonate perfectly. No chatter or rattle just a smooth sounding electro-harmonic frequency. Years of technical information has been passed down to have this strange awkward device sound the way it does let alone perform such an complex task consistently.Read More »

Mike Ness: Tattoo Artist Magazine Interview from Social Distortion, Lucero and Frank Turner Fall Tour (Photos)
By Crash At the start of last week I got a call from Jimmy Perlman, a tattooer comrade of mine that some of you probably know as a tour manager for various rock bands. Currently he's working with the band Lucero who, along with Frank Turner are opening up for Social Distortion this fall. It seemed they were coming into Atlanta on Nov. 9 and (as is Jimmy's custom no matter what city he's in) he invited a few tattooers to a fuckin' awesome VIP experience with the bands.Read More »
State of Grace Tattoo Convention, San Francisco: PART II
By Crash To continue with my list of highlights from the SF show… It's always a treat seeing Thom deVita and, as usual, finding him in the hotel lobby every morning by 7a.m. (He and I are commonly the only people stirring at this hour). Sitting with Thom and listening to a few of his stories each morning was a real treat. The first morning I asked him what he was doing…"Are you people-watching?" "Lady-watching," he said, with a wry grin. DeVita also sold some of his art (which we will soon be featuring on the TAM site) and he did several tattoos on some devoted tattooers over the weekend. (It was the first time I'd seen him wear gloves!)Read More »
State of Grace Tattoo Convention, San Francisco: PART I
By Crash: This has long been one of my favorite conventions each year and 2010 was better than ever. A million 'Thanks' to Horitaka and crew for doing such a fine job organizing and promoting the STATE OF GRACE show (as usual) and for taking such good care of TAM and all the attending artists/vendors. On Sunday evening, following the power outage at our hotel (more on that later) and early-ending to the convention, my partner Kent Smith, friend Hunter Spanks and I all shared my usual sushi and sake (cold, unfiltered) celebratory dinner at the very fine Barracuda Japanese Restaurant. During the meal we each discussed our favorite aspects of the weekend. It was an interesting exercise and this blog entry is the result. I hope it proves entertaining to readers.Read More »

The Art of Possession Football
stokes_83 replied to Cleon's topic in Tactics, Training & Strategies DiscussionCheck this out, using the same tactic presneted by Cleon my RB and AMR were able to finish 1 & 2 in average rating in Prem on Crystal Palace on a club that finished 10th. Trippier overlapping on Zivkovic was just a deadly combination all year, with both of them getting 7.5-8.5 ratings commonly every game. The AMR was the key passer, and RB the benficiary of tons of open space on the right wing to deliver great crosses. 12 assists in 28 games in the prem. PPM's played a huge part in their success I think. Zivkovic had cuts inside and tries killer balls often, and Tripper has runs with ball down right and gets forward often. It wouldn't be uncommon to Zivkovic get 10+ key passes in a game.
Can't stop conceding!
stokes_83 replied to AmazingSteve's topic in Tactics, Training & Strategies DiscussionLimited defender and play out of defence are a contradiction. Limited defenders hoof the ball out at each chance, but from the looks of it you are trying to build up possession from the back.
The Art of Possession Football
stokes_83 replied to Cleon's topic in Tactics, Training & Strategies DiscussionI have been having pretty good results with the philosophies from this thread, but the biggest issue I have very poor away form. At Crystal Palace I am 2-2-9 with a -15 GD away from home. I win possession ost of the time, but lose on the scoreboard away from home. I'm chalking it up to my defenders not being high enough quality to keep the ball out of my own net against the better opponents.
Second Season Transfer Budgets - Crazy!
stokes_83 replied to Saint_Lane's topic in Football Manager General DiscussionWas given a transfer budget of 33 million at Crystal Palace after finishing 17th in the league. Yeah right.....
Derby - Moneyball at it's finest
stokes_83 replied to Brick_Tamland's topic in Football Manager General DiscussionI don't know why it happens, I'm not the developer. Just saying that a lot of people are reporting crazy finances and budgets in the first few years. My save at CP I spent 50 million on players in year 3 and my finances are still secure.
Derby - Moneyball at it's finest
stokes_83 replied to Brick_Tamland's topic in Football Manager General DiscussionSorry to burst your bubble but a lot of people are reporting crazy finances and transfer budgets from year 2 on. Its a bug. It's too easy to make money.
Can overachievment take away the fun?
stokes_83 replied to Moose-Stuff-For-Money's topic in Football Manager General DiscussionYes, I've always found that when I acheive success of any kind the save becomes boring. To me all the fun is not doing well and trying to find a way to turn it around.
What determines who becomes icons?
stokes_83 posted a topic in Football Manager General DiscussionMakes no sense to me. I got Zaha at CP, and he is now an icon. He's on my bench and in year 3 is one of the worst players at the club. His career stats are really nothing special. What determines when or how a players becomes an icon at a club?
problem with the 'statistics' layout
stokes_83 replied to Bothan Spy's topic in Football Manager General DiscussionYes!! Annoys the heck out of me too.
Has anyone had huge success with defensive tactics?
stokes_83 posted a topic in Tactics, Training & Strategies DiscussionEvery thread I read about a team finishing far better than predicted have he same thing in common, they use either control or attacking strategy. I've yet to see any screenshots of big success using counter or defensive, non-possession based strategies. Has anyone done it?
FM 16 Unlikely Champions
stokes_83 replied to aditya's topic in Football Manager General DiscussionIn my save Leverkusen win the champions league in year 2. There is just way too many underdog winners being reported for it to be just a one a million type of thing. I get that sometimes there are upsets, but seems to be a common occurance in this version.
Best "Bigish" team to manage?
stokes_83 replied to SportingCP21's topic in Football Manager General DiscussionLiverpool, Napoli, or Dortmund would be my votes.
Is there anything glaring in this 4-2-3-1 I'm missing?
stokes_83 replied to Ghents's topic in Tactics, Training & Strategies DiscussionI'm guessing you are giving up a ton of goals against wiht this setup? The formation and roles may be suitable for a world class team, but with newcastle you are going to lose the possesion battle against top clubs and when you lose the ball think of where you players will be on the pitch. You wing backs could be way up field, the playmaker is going to be out of position, and you forwards will be all up field. Teams are going to break on you with only 3 men back. I've tried an attacking setup like this with a mid to bottom table club as well, and gave up a ton of goals. You simply aren't going to out-score the top teams with this club. You'd be better off getting men behind the ball playing with a standard mentality. The maximum attack roles for that mentality should be 2. You've got 5, and another 2 players that have very attacking roles even though they are on support duty. I'd go back to the drawing board, and remember that you are Newcastle, and not going to boss the play around the field.
Unfamiliarity with tactics at the start
stokes_83 replied to martplfc1's topic in Football Manager General DiscussionTotally agree. I've been fired a couple times due to brutal starts with top teams, and I'm blaming it on this.
Eastside is back
stokes_83 replied to Miles Jacobson's topic in General Questions for Eastside Hockey ManagerThis game is unbelievable. Easily the best hockey sim ever made!!

In an attempt to create a simple office chair, I searched for the problems that exist in current market. During the research phase, I found many office chairs that are bulky and comfortable enough to fall sleep in an unhealthy posture.
My task was to design and build a desk that suits my needs. At the time when I was assigned with this project, I was in need of more storage space; living in a tight New York apartment.
This rooftop bar lounge would fit 150 to 200 people and built in the heart of downtown Los Angeles. It would also have outdoor deck with a swimming pool, low table for drinking and low lighting.
Penkön is a pencil holder made of reclaimed materials, ultimately extending the life of the byproduct. The conical shape of the holder, extends the contents out for ease-of-grab for the designer on the go.
GesChair is a physical interface between the human body and the electronic tablet; meant to support extended hours of use.
While trying to build a structure that could hold my weight, I ended up making a chair. Continuing from this form, I got to make Sensvoid.
Started from a Solidworks class, I began designing one chess piece at a time. I got the shape of the pawn inspired by the Moai, commonly known as The Easter Island Heads.

Pittsburgh/South Side
South Side is a Pittsburgh neighborhood that contains more restaurants and bars than perhaps anywhere else in the city. It is bounded by Station Square on the west and extends 30 or more blocks to the east. On the north its boundary is the Monongahela river and it extends inland many blocks. The central artery is East Carson street on which most of the restaurants and bars are located. Historically the area was home to the millworkers for the steel mills that once lined the river. Since most of these workers came from eastern Europe there is a European feel to it: small homes built right next to each other, dozens of churches of various ethnic persuasions and even more neighborhood bars and small shops all mixed helter skelter together. Today the mills are gone and shopping centers are springing up in their place. The older area is an interesting place to wander and people-watch because it very dense and you can easily walk almost anywhere. There is also a pretty walk along the river that extends for miles where from the woodsy bank you can view the sleek downtown area right across river.

Human brain is the most complex organ of human body which needs deep research and study in order to understand its normal behavior. In the presence of chemical substance or addictive drugs, the mechanism becomes much more complex. That is why previous studies on drug abuse and drug addiction were merely based on misconceptions and addictive behavior of the users.
Today we have much more material and information on the working of human brain in the presence of drug substances and so we can determine the working of brain in a better way. We can tell exactly how a person becomes addictive of substance and how it becomes difficult for him to leave drugs. This information will be useful in saliva drug tests in workplaces and educational institutions.
The Working of Human Brain during the Presence of Drugs:
It is commonly said that drug addiction affects the working of the brain and also indulge in some activities that have negative impacts on the addict's life. Well, drugs does not only affect the brain rather it affects the working of whole organ system of the body.
Drugs directly alters the brain of the addict and affects the natural reward system of human body either willingly or unwillingly and results in euphoric effects on the drug users. These euphoric effects arise from the neurotransmitter named dopamine which controls emotions, motivation, cognition and feelings of pleasure.
Dopamine not only effects the natural behavior of human body but also initiates the cycle which forces the body to repeat the process again. The dopamine fills in the behavior from routine activities like sexual activity and eating in restrictive amount. When euphoric effects are felt inside the body, the brain teaches itself to repeat the same process again and again until it becomes a habit.
The consumption of drugs cause the person to act impulsively whereas the brain's reasoning system delay that particular form of action. This reasoning system is circumvented and hence the resulting actions are undesirable and can have negative effects on the addict's life.
Where some drugs deliver euphoric feelings at times, at other times it causes depression, paranoia and suicidal thoughts. The regular use of drugs causes the natural production of dopamine lower and so the person feels the dire need of use drugs to fulfill the demand of dopamine in human body.

Platypus Installer Tutorial
This short tutorial will demonstrate the process of creating a GUI installer using a shell script and Platypus.
Once you have defined the name of your installer and set an appropriate icon, you'll probably want to set Output as "Progress Bar" to indicate to the end user that some activity is taking place. The install may also take some time, depending on what you're installing.
If your installer needs to install files in protected locations on the file system (i.e. in places where your end user will typically not have write-privileges), you'll need to click "Show advanced options" and check the "Requires Adminstrator privileges" checkbox.
We now want to define the files that our installer will actually install. We add files to the file list by pressing the "+" button to the right until we have specified all the files we want.
These files will be copied into the Resources folder of the application.
Now it's time to look at the script that will actually do the installing. As can be seen in the image above, I've added two files: MyApp.app and MyFramework.framework. To install these two, I use the following script:
cp -R "$1/Contents/Resources/MyApp.app" "/Applications/"
cp -R "$1/Contents/Resources/MyFramework.framework" "/Library/Frameworks/"
Of course, you may want to modify permissions using
or do extra things like open the application (a simple "
open /Applications/MyApp.app
With a script such as this and the above-mentioned settings we are ready to go -- press the Create button and you'll have a fully-functioning installer.

Miami Hurricanes vs. Notre Dame Fighting Irish Pick-Odds-Prediction 2/19/14
Notre Dame Fighting Irish (14-12) at Miami Hurricanes (12-13)
College Basketball: Wednesday, February 19, 2014 at 9:00 pm (BankUnited Center)
The Line: Miami Hurricanes -3.5 -- Over/Under: See the Latest Odds
TV: ESPN Full Court
The Notre Dame Fighting Irish travel to Miami to play the Hurricanes on Wednesday night.
Notre Dame improved to 14-12, 5-8 ACC after beating Boston College 73-69 on the road Sunday. On the season, Garrick Sherman leads the Irish with 14.3 points and 7.9 rebounds per game, both are team-highs. Eric Atkins is averaging 14 points and a team-high 4.9 assists per game. Notre Dame is averaging 73.6 points per game while shooting a decent 45.7% from the field as a team this season. The Irish are an average rebounding team, pulling down 35.5 boards per game. The Irish have struggled in ACC play this season and they have lost five out of their last eight games overall. To make matters worse, Notre Dame will head out for their second of three straight road games; the Irish are 1-6 on the road this season.
Phil Sears-USA TODAY Sports
The Miami Hurricanes dropped to 12-13, 3-9 ACC after losing at Virginia Tech 52-45 on Saturday. On the season, Rion Brown leads the Hurricanes in scoring, averaging 14.3 points per game, the only player averaging in double-figures for Miami this season. Brown is also averaging a team-high 6.1 rebounds per game. Garrius Adams is averaging a second-best 9.8 points per game while averaging a team-high 2.8 assists per contest. The Hurricanes are only averaging 61.3 points per game while shooting 41.7% from the field, both rank near the bottom in the country. Miami is an average rebounding team and they are awful when it comes to distributing the basketball on the offensive end of the floor. After losing two straight games the Hurricanes bounced back with a win on the road last week, but then went right back to their losing ways on the weekend. Miami will be at home where they have lost their last five conference games.
Neither one of these teams is going to make any noise come conference tournament time. Notre Dame has not played well on the road, while Miami has struggled at home against conference opponents. I think this will be a close, low scoring game, so I'm going to take the points with Notre Dame.

Your inquiry of Abraham Mogridge that I found on World Connect is as follows: Abraham christened 15 March 1795 at Cheriton Fitzpaine, Devon.His parents were William (14 Feb 1766) and Grace (18 Aug 1767). These were also christening dates.William's parents were Thomas (est. 1730) and Sarah Row (est. 1730).They were married Jan. 24 1763. You may have already acquired this info but I saw no response to your message I did.This is the first time I have done this but I have received a lot of info from others have helped me so I'm returning the favor.Good luck in your further inquiries.

Administration Considering Social Security for Mexican Workers
December 20, 2002
The White House is exploring a possible agreement with Mexico that would add thousands of Mexicans working legally in the U.S. to our Social Security system -- making them eligible for millions of dollars in benefits.
- The U.S. already has existing Social Security pacts with 20 other countries -- ranging from Canada to South Korea.
- The Social Security Administration pays 994,022 beneficiaries from other countries an average of $162 a month -- for a total of $184 million a year.
- An agreement with Mexico could add 162,000 beneficiaries in the first five years -- for a total cost of as much as $1 billion a year.
- Nearly 46 million people currently receive $372 billion per year in Social Security benefits.
Concern is reportedly growing on Capitol Hill that any agreement with Mexico would add a huge burden to the system, which is already facing huge shortfalls in the next 15 to 20 years.

I Agree
I Disagree (explain?)
This is somewhat poorly written, but I think I'll get my point across: The Bnet community is a wild place, it has a lot of awesome people, some really awesome people, and a fair amount of trolls and grumps. What helped me a lot when I first joined were obvious titles. Simply by skimming a group of responses, I could see how the "cool kids" (AKA Mythics) behaved and what was deemed appropriate on this website. The titles I saw denoted good behavior and dedication, and my little nooblet heart wanted nothing more than to be like them. I know this has been addressed, and that we will get a revamped title system with the release of Destiny. But something that concerns me is that next-to-name titles might depend on in-game actions. [b]I don't want a new member to take the advice of some douche who's simply good at videogames, when an obviously superior community member has nothing but the little year tag hidden away on their profile. [/b] Being able to imitate members like Hylebos and Spawn guaranteed I never landed a ban (short of that hilarious bug incident, lel). So, in my own opinion, it is imperative that you bring back titles as our population grows (I mean bring them back BEFORE Destiny is released). This city needs symbols, blah blah, etc. And it is also important that in-game actions do not dictate superiority as a community member, as noobs will listen to whoever they perceive as being the highest ranking person in the room.

We agree. What we want to do is install a system that rewards people for deeds and actions that represent a positive influence on the community. You should select your symbols, blah, blah, etc. Previously, they were selected by an algorithm that identified people who posted a lot, but didn't get banned. Can we aspire to loftier heights than hanging out and not getting into trouble? Let's shift this conversation away from what we're not getting (yet), and talk in vague and general terms about what sort of person you think should be an illuminated pillar of this community.

[quote]The titles I saw denoted good behavior and dedication[/quote] I shit posted on B.old just as much as I do now and I'm a Fabled Mythic Member.
I like the sound of what you're proposing, OP. The question, is, though... if these more helpful members are to get anything, what do they get?
Very nice thread Progo, you'll be an "Illuminated Pillar" in no time, but you've smacked the bees nest with this. Speaking of bees, thats sort of how i see this community. On one hand we have the workers delivering the nectar (opinions) to the nest, and then some that decide to sting everything in defence of it. The Queen Bee is of course DeeJ, Queen DeeJ… In all seriousness though, my opinion is that the Mythic members of the community came here largely for Halo, but things have changed and Bungie has moved on to Destiny. With a new IP comes a new wave of fans (including myself), some of which have the potential to become legend and be as recognised as some of the more grizzled beasts on here today. My point is, let the new wave of fans in the community flourish along with the old. Give them a chance, hear them out, rather than concentrating on who's been here the longest, giving people titles for lengths of time like some kind of jail sentence shouldn't be a 'thing'. Of course trust is essential, so don't take it away, just put the spotlight on the guys that work the hardest and bring the most nectar back to the nest. Implementing things such as a 'Thread of the Week'? or 'PvP Hero' for the month, and basically providing a platform to stand on for members who work hard in game AND on the forums would be rewarding. Everyone likes a nice little badge or trophy for their profile too, showing off and proving how skilled or knowledgable they are, along with length of time on the frontline. Maybe I'm just ranting, maybe you guys agree, let me know. :)
Edited by Callbuscus: 1/5/2014 10:59:30 AM
I agree with this completely. It gives people more accountability and reasons to act properly which seems to be lacking so much these days. B.next seems so much like the wild west where everyone just does whatever they want without consequence. If there was something to work for/towards I would imagine it would help to keep people honest and hopefully cut down on the 1,000,000 alts around here. Seriously, are there more alts these days than actual members? But I guess if I have anything to add to this idea/discussion it would be that we shouldn't be given titles for negative behavior as I am sure there would be people trying to get as much negative attention as possible to obtain them. Instead maybe reset their title back to the beginning? It is nice to see such a civil discussion around here as they seem to be sorely lacking these days. Cheers!
shut up we dont need those youre wrong bear with me im a genius
Bring them back!
This is my first time on this website since September, so I don't know much about what's going on, but I agree with you. I don't care that my mythic is gone, but I'd rather have it not there at all than have it be based on ingame stuff.
As much as I like the current format, re-integrating Titles would be a great addition. Besides, I miss them a bit.
I will admit that it's a little silly that my first post on these forums was as an Honourable Member, but I miss titles.
Edited by GrandmasterNinja: 1/5/2014 8:02:09 PMI agree, I want my blue hat back.
Plz bungie, plz.
I feel like I am after the french revolution and I'm voting for Napoleon...
Edited by Mumz Opt: 1/5/2014 6:44:23 PMThere is a lot of truth here. Newbies tend to follow the loudest, not realizing 'why' they are loud (sadly the mainstream of folks are like sheep ...). It would be awesome to have some respect visibly standing as the community gets more wound for the game. And so Deej's question does stand ... how to determine such things within a huge and growing community ... ? I'll ponder that and be back.
I'm not sure what this website needs maybe it needs titles or maybe we just need Destiny to come out. At least for me this place is getting more stale as the days go by. Most of the threads in the main page are either collapsed (My own view) or something that I have no interest in. If it weren't for the support forum I'd probably not come here as often.
Good explanation and I agree with you.
The new title algorithm should take into account age, the frequency and/or number of their bans, the number of "question"-type threads they have gotten the "best answer" for, perhaps their number of followers if it is to also track popularity, and probably a few more bits of data that I can't think up right now.
+1, with the exception that Hyleblas is someone to laugh at rather than imitate. >.>
I just agree because it's a needed system, however just cause Mythic have some years on this community doesn't mean they all deserve recognitions. This post make it harder to achieve the goal. It's immature to expect some blue for years. We should be titled for years but for actions we perform. Not just because you're ancient to the cause. You blue glowing post need to be earned not given for set achievements. This is also the answer to a Mythic further down. I just wanted to make sure this was seen and added on to by everyone.
I keep reading "titties"...
#Illuminati #Anonymous We are anonymous We do not forgive We do not forget Expect us 2014
I don't demand a lot. Just a simple potato would be sufficient for me. As long as I'm the only potato.

The Mistress Files(7)By: Tiffany Reisz
"It hurt more than I expected. In the books there's always just this quick stab of pain and then ecstasy."
"Well, it's the writer's way of throwing in some drama to an otherwise simple and natural act. But too much pain and drama, and it turns into a horror story."
Sheridan grinned and lifted her hips. Another good sign. Sheridan couldn't seem to stop moving her lower body. That meant she was feeling something in the right spot.
"It wasn't a horror story. Definitely. It just really burned going in. I was wet and excited but not ready. Not really. The next time was a lot better."
"Can you remember your favorite time with him? The best sex? The best orgasm?"
"Yes. Like it was yesterday."
"Tell me about it. I'm going to start touching your clit, by the way, while you tell me about the best sex you ever had. Don't argue with me about it."
"I wouldn't." She shook her head and took a quick, deep breath. "I was eighteen, just turned eighteen...about to leave Chicago and move to New York. I'd done some commercials and got an agent. My dreams were coming true. But..."
"But you had to leave Rex behind."
"Right. I didn't want him to know I was going. If he tried to talk me out of it, he might have. So I knew it would be our last time for a few months at least. I went to his house one evening. He wasn't expecting me. My flight left the very next morning, but I didn't tell him that."
"What did he do?"
"He opened the door and saw him standing on the stoop. And he pulled me inside and without saying anything he kissed me."
"Very nice."
"I loved when he did that. Every time I showed up on his doorstep, I was afraid I'd make him mad. Maybe he'd have company over or something and wish I hadn't shown up. I wasn't even his mistress. I was just his dirty secret. But every time I went over there...yeah, just like that."
"And then?"
"And then he was all over me...right in the foyer. I had on a plaid skirt—"
"How very Catholic schoolgirl of you."
"Episcopal actually."
"Don't kill my lady-boner. I'm pretending it was Catholic. Go on. He was all over you how?"
"Hands everywhere. Mouth everywhere. He liked to bite when he kissed me. My lips and tongue and neck and ears. He'd dig under my skirt and shove his hand into my panties."
"You wore panties around him? Such a waste of time."
"Only because I loved hearing him grunt with frustration when he had to drag them off of me."
"I like your style. And I'm about to touch your clit and vagina. Continue."
Sheridan stiffened but kept talking.
"So yes...plaid skirt," Sheridan said and inhaled right as The Mistress put her fingertip gently to her clitoris. Her whole body tensed but The Mistress did nothing and said nothing, merely waited. Sheridan continued. "And there was this table in the foyer—fancy table. His housekeeper always kept fresh flowers on it."
"How nice." The Mistress gently kneaded Sheridan's clitoris with one finger. The attentions The Mistress had paid to Sheridan's breasts had sent the blood flowing in the right direction. Sheridan's labia had started to open and her clitoris had swollen slightly.
"Those poor flowers never knew what hit them. Everything on that table hit the floor when Rex bent me over it."
"That devil," The Mistress said as she lightly increased the pressure on Sheridan's clitoris, increased the speed of her movements.
"He was."
"Tell me what you remember feeling. Tell me in detail. And while you're talking, try to remember every sensation he aroused in you...." The Mistress ran a single finger up and down the seam of Sheridan's vagina. "While you remember, imagine yourself getting wetter and wetter, think of all the blood rushing to your labia and your vagina opening...."
Sheridan inhaled slowly and nodded her head. "Yes, Mistress."
"Now keep talking. I might go inside you soon."
The Mistress watched Sheridan's thin fingers dig into the silk of the cushions. But she raised no protest.
"So Rex bent me over this table in the foyer. I remember the cool slick wood under my right cheek. I held onto the sides as he dragged my panties down my legs."
Again and again, The Mistress ran her finger up and down Sheridan's slit and felt it grow wetter and warmer to the touch.
"And once he had my panties off, he shoved my legs open. Practically kicked them open."
"Wicked man. You must have loved it."

The product is derived from technology developed for Linn's award-winning flagship KLIMAX Kontrol pre-amplifier, so exceptional results come as standard.
EXOTIK, Linn's latest pre -amplifier development, is available to order now. EXOTIK is a new multi -channel audio pre -amplifier product that offers purist audio performance and access to and control of the new generation of multi -channel sound formats without compromise. The product is derived from technology developed for Linn's award -winning flagship KLIMAX Kontrol pre -amplifier, so exceptional results come as standard.
The EXOTIK offers superb audio performance from both two and multi -channel source material. This flexibility makes EXOTIK an extremely attractive proposition for the high -fidelity music enthusiast. For pure 2 -channel performance, EXOTIK will consistently exceed expectations. For the audio enthusiast who is tempted by the latest multi -channel audio formats, such as SACD and DVD -Audio, EXOTIK partners a multi -format source product perfectly.
Combined with a Linn UNIDISK player, the maximum performance possible can be extracted from the latest multi -channel formats including SACD and DVD -Audio. In addition, an RS232 link enables automatic pre -selection of the most appropriate decoding algorithm or analogue channels determined by the disc type being played when used with a UNIDISK, making it an ideal partner product.
The EXOTIK pre -amplifier is extremely flexible to accommodate different speaker set -ups, providing optimum performance, supporting bass redirect, stereo sub algorithm and LoRo analog 5.1 to stereo downmixes.
A digital variant of the product is planned for September 2004, the EXOTIK+DA.

This means movies or music available only in stereo can be enjoyed in the latest multi -channel surround formats for an authentic cinematic sound experience.
The EXOTIK+DA product has on -board processing capabilities to enable those who already own a two -channel source product (e.g. a GENKI or IKEMI CD player) to enjoy their existing CD collection in a multi -channel surround format, without upgrading to a multi -channel source product. A digital audio module will be available as an upgrade to enable EXOTIK owners to access EXOTIK+DA product functionality at a later date.
Both versions of the EXOTIK pre -amplifier feature RC5 input and output sockets for direct integration with other Linn products and incorporate a proprietary user interface, for fast and simple set -up and ease of control. Integrated KNEKT Line Driver and Line Receiver functionality enable both EXOTIK products to be seamlessly introduced into a new or existing KNEKT multi -user, multi -room audio distribution system.
The EXOTIK pre -amplifier exemplifies Linn's commitment to delivering new products which exploit the full potential of the latest technology and audio formats whilst continuing to support existing Linn customers with improved performance and superb value.

Finding time for yourself.
Posted by + Show Post
With my 9mo son's father barely in the picture, I have him all the time. I'm sure there may be some other ladies like this on here. I work a few nights a week as a server and my mother or my best friend watches him during my shifts. Even though I'm getting time away from baby, it's still not great because I'm still "at work". I want a little time to myself. A girls night or a dinner out or even bowling. But I don't have anyone else that can babysit and I would feel bad asking my mom or friend to babysit another time. Any advice?
Replies (21-22):
Unfortunately my son doesn't sleep through the night yet :( so I'd just feel terrible if my mom had to get up with him late when she has to work early in the morning. I will find a way though soon! That's for sure.
Posted on CafeMom Mobile
Everyone needs Me Time!!! I hope you can find it. I know some places have babysitting swaps in the mom's clubs - maybe you could try to join a play group or mom's club and then see if there is some sort of exchange program. The best part is you get to know the parent(s) by spending time in the groups and then you can see if there are other members that you feel comfortable with, then you each give the other a night out. Good luck, this is the most difficult part of being a mom I think!

Eric Pickles may not have the most glamorous job in Westminster, but he has delivered an early Christmas present for civil liberties campaigners.
The last Labour Government changed the law to give local authorities powers, originally intended for the Environment Agency to tackle serious fly-tipping, to go through people's bins. Now the Secretary of State for Local Government has announced that no longer will council inspectors have the right to enter your property and rifle through your bin.
This power of entry, along with a few others (including the suspicion of unregulated hypnotists and the sale of German property) were scrapped as part of the Protection of Freedoms Act.
It's no surprise to Big Brother Watch that the Secretary of State for Local Government is leading the charge against these excessive and unaccountable powers, hundreds of which were introduced by the last Government. Earlier in the year he wrote the foreword to our report 'A legacy of surveillance' saying:
"It is important that the public can have faith that surveillance powers are being used only in those situations where serious crimes are taking place and when there are no less intrusive alternative routes of investigation. That's why we need robust accountability of all state bodies, not just local authorities, to ensure these state powers are not used without proper justification, and I welcome Big Brother Watch's continuing scrutiny and challenge."
In March, Home Office minister James Brokenshire told Parliament in the two years following the election 19 new powers of entry had been "created or amended" by the Coalition. That's on top of the roughly 1400 powers already on the statute book. There are an estimated 20,000 officials, many working for councils and quangos, who are able to use the powers.
There is much more to do – and the Home Office's review of these powers is not due to report until 2014, hardly the sign of an urgent review – but credit is due for at least making a start.
The Coalition is rightly taking action and this is an important first step. We hope other ministers join Eric Pickles in pressing ahead with these important changes to protect our privacy and liberty at home.

Unexpected Challenges of Studying Abroad
As a college student, there are times you may be presented with the opportunity to study abroad. It is always said that studying abroad is something students should experience if they ever can. If you ever study abroad, you'd want to be prepared for the trip. This may include anything from currency conversion to luggage weight limits. Naturally, one cannot be prepared for everything, so here are some unexpected challenges of studying abroad.
If you are traveling outside of the country, you will need a passport. Sometimes passports can take quite a bit to be ordered and mailed to you. Even though you applied for a passport early, there could be the unexpected challenge of it not being mailed to you on time. No one expects delays, but they do happen.
There is a possibility you could experience issues with exchanging currency, especially if you decide to do it at airport stations. This can cause a problem for the remainder of your study abroad trip, because you may not have the proper currency to buy things in a certain country.
Another unexpected challenge of studying abroad is not bringing enough money. Sometimes items are more expensive than we anticipate. Other times, we may want to purchase more or participate in more activities that we were unaware of beforehand. Not having enough money can put a damper on the trip, if you want to do everything that your travel partners are doing.
Luggage policies
Another unexpected challenge is luggage policies for flights. You have to check the airport and see what specifics they say you can and can't bring on the plane. There are also specifications for liquids that are permissible. If you don't read carefully or read the wrong lists, there is a possibility that you can be detained and not let on the plane because you didn't follow the policies.
In the same way, you could be hit unexpectedly with charges because your luggage is over the weight limit or even forced to leave a bag behind. If you weighed your luggage, but used a faulty scale, or assumed you were not over the limit, this could happen to you.
Travel delays
Traffic delays can certainly be an unexpected challenge of studying abroad. Whether the delay is while you are trying to get to the airport or if the flight is delayed, it can be a challenge. It is always best to get to your destination very early, but as a traveler, you cannot predict everything that will happen.
There is also the challenge of unexpectedly getting hurt in a foreign country. Unless your trip secured international health insurance, this can be very expensive. No one really expects to get hurt on a trip, but it can happen anywhere at any time.
Another unexpected challenge of studying abroad is the possibility of being pick-pocketed in another country. This can be an unexpected challenge because it can really set you back depending on what the person got away with. Sometimes pick-pocketers steal a lot of money from you.
Communication factors
When you study abroad, there could be the unexpected challenge of a larger language barrier than you anticipated. Some people just study a few words before they leave and others expect that there will be an interpreter. However, this is not the case all the time. It is said that one of the best ways to learn a new language is through immersion, but this can be overwhelming, especially when you are trying to communicate something very important and can't properly get your point across.
Another language challenge you may face is accidentally saying or gesturing something offensive. You could unknowingly offend someone by the way you move your hand. In some countries, it is offensive to tip at a restaurant. Some hand gestures that are accepted in the United States can be very crass in other places of the world. It is best that you read up on some of these customs before you study abroad, but it is a possibility that you won't learn or remember everything.
Oftentimes, students who study abroad are given little information on what is proper apparel or attire in another country. However, again, you cannot predict everything. In this case, you could be in a situation where what you are wearing is considered offensive in a country. This can be a challenge because you could end up being embarrassed or feeling bad about what you have on.
In addition to proper attire, you can check and recheck the weather all you want. There is always a chance the weather can change in an instant because it is so unpredictable. In this case, you could run into the issue of being too hot or too cold, or of not wearing the proper shoes in inclement weather.
In spite of the challenges you may face, do not let this deter you from studying abroad. All you can do is try to be prepared the best way you can. If any of these do happen to you, remember to stay positive and try to continue to enjoy your study abroad trip.
