The Wheel has great pizza but the garlic fingers are my favourite. The best garlic fingers I've ever had. Soooo much cheese!
The Wheel has great pizza but the garlic fingers are my favourite. The best garlic fingers I've ever had. Soooo much cheese!
I visit Antigonish once of twice a year from Edmonton and every time I go I have to have a Wheel donair! What makes these donairs great is the quantity of meat and cheese put in them and their excellent sauce. One donair makes for two meals for me. The restaurant itself definitely isn't fancy but it has the small... More
Same pizza for years. Always make sure to have a pizza when I am in town! Friendly staff and community minded business!
Can't wait to get home and have a slice. By far the best pizza we order as soon as we hit New Glasgow and we always know what we will get!
We tried the donairs and garlic bread. The lady said they make there own donair meat so I was a little weary but they were wonderful !!! Loaded full and the price was amazing. The garlic bread was loaded and I mean loaded with cheese !! Service was fast and friendly. I would recommend this place.
I have lived most of my life in Glace Bay NS. Yes we had many different types of Pizza, and I can say I always had my favorite growing up. I atended a Golf Tourny in Antigonish in 1999 and stayed in the Area overnight. I tried the Wheel Pizza that night and I have never looked back....in fact -... More
Its a great place for pizza. I don't know about anything else, the pizza is all order everytime I pass by antigonish. Great crust and toppings. stop in.
It had loads of toppings, with a nice spice to the sauce, speedy delivery, our whole team enjoyed the pizza.
The Wheel Pizza is the best pizza I have had! When we called with delivery and I knew it was very busy inside, the guy that took our order was polite and patient, and they are honest with delivery time. FIVE STARS
A client for many years and am never disappointed. the owner and all staff work so hard! Always busy. They catered our wedding dance and the guests devoured it!

Also, I do believe this is the weekend that I will make the glorious trip to Starbucks for my first red holiday cup of the year :)

I purchased Crocs Size 8 since it said that this would be relaxed fit. ( I owned about 5 pairs of Crocs: Sandals, crocs, slip on... variety of styles). I normally wear size 8-9 in women. However, this is way too small. I also order size 10 for a friend of mine and was able to fit in it (slightly loose). I will return this shoe at the store and see if I might fit in a 9 in this style.
The shoe is very light, I like it, just wish the size is more accurate.

Way to small.
I ordered one size up as instructed by other reviewers, but when I received my shoes they were extremely small. I normally wear a men's 5, so I ordered a size 6. Well, when I tried putting them on, they barely fit. I had to reorder them at a size 8 in order for them to fit. That was the size instructed by Croc's customer service. That is 3 sizes larger. Yes, I did measure my feet before my initial order. When I inspected them, they seemed like they would be very comfortable, and were well made!

slightly tight
It is slightly smaller comparing to another pair from crocs too. And it feels a little tight when put on. Suggest to have one size bigger than usual.

I like crocs. However, they have the most inconsistent sizing ever. I bought the hover slip -ons with another pair of plastic crocs (both a size10). The hover slip-on barely fits while the plastic ones are so big I walked right out of them. What's so frustrating is that I even measured my foot to make sure the shoes would fit. I could not return the hover slip-ons as I wore them. I wore them around the house and they were tolerable, however, when I wore them the second time, they gave me a blister.

BERLIN (Reuters) - German pharmaceuticals group Bayer keeps benefiting from the weak euro, though the region's deepening debt crisis is beginning to weigh on orders in some sectors, a Swiss newspaper reported, citing the group's chief financial officer.
"As positive as the situation looks at the moment, it is clear that this will not be the case for the long term," Finanz und Wirtschaft quoted Werner Baumann as saying.
"We are noticing more cautious orders in several upstream industries" as consumers are growing cautious amid the financial crisis, he said.
The euro's weakness helped Bayer's first-quarter results, contributing about 90 million euros ($110 million) to company accounts. Germany's largest drugmaker may continue to benefit from the euro's decline for a bit longer, Baumann said.
Pharmaceuticals, Bayer's core business, remains "very stable," though may suffer from growing cuts in government spending, he said.
The CropScience business had a good start to the year, Baumann said, noting the outlook for the division could be raised if the positive development persists.
"The weakening that, for instance, manufacturers of semiconductors or specialty chemicals already feel is something that we will probably also witness in our business, but later," Baumann said.
Bayer does not plan further restructuring measures as an existing cost-cutting program may yield planned savings of 150 million euros by the end of 2012, Baumann said, adding the company has no plans to sell its MaterialScience business.

South Philadelphia, nicknamed South Philly, is the section of Philadelphia bounded by South Street to the north, the Delaware River to the east and south, and the Schuylkill River to the west.[1] A diverse community, South Philadelphia is known for its large Italian American population.
South Philadelphia began as a satellite town of Philadelphia, with small townships such as Moyamensing and Southwark.[2] During the Industrial Revolution, the area saw rapid growth, in part due to mass immigration from Ireland. Its urbanized border reached that of Philadelphia. Along with all other jurisdictions in the county, South Philadelphia became part of the City of Philadelphia proper with passage by the Pennsylvania legislature of the city/county Act of Consolidation, 1854. The area continued to grow, becoming a vital part of Philadelphia's large industrial base and attracting immigrants from Italy, Ireland, Poland, and many other countries during the 19th and early 20th centuries, as well as Black American migrants from the southern United States during the Great Migration of the early 20th century. The immigrants and migrants became the basis of South Philadelphia's unique and vibrant culture that developed over the next several decades. Struggling to maintain their Catholic identity in a mostly Protestant city, the Irish built a system of Irish Catholic churches and parochial schools for their children, and added Catholic high schools. The later immigrant populations of Italians and Polish were also Catholic. At first they attended the existing churches but built their own national churches when they could. Ethnic Irish controlled the Catholic clergy and hierarchy for decades in Philadelphia and the region. Despite the dramatic growth in population, the low funding of education by the city resulted in the first public high school not being formed in South Philadelphia until 1934.[3] Attracted to the industrial jobs, the new residents created communities that continued many of their traditions.
While many of the new arrivals were Catholic, neighborhood parishes reflected their national traditions. Monsignor James F. Connelly, the pastor of the Stella Maris Catholic Church and an editor of the 1976 work The History of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia, said in a 2005 Philadelphia Inquirer article that each parish church "offer[s] the immigrants the faith they were familiar with."[4] With the dramatic loss of industrial jobs during mid-20th century restructuring, there were population losses in South Philadelphia as well as other working-class parts of the city, and some neighborhood Catholic schools had to close.
Most of South Philadelphia's communities are largely Italian American. There also continue to be many ethnic Irish Americans and African Americans. An increase in late 20th-century immigration has given South Philadelphia significant populations from Asia: Vietnam, Cambodia, and Thailand; as well as from Russia and Mexico, and smaller groups from dozens of nations across the world. Today, many vendors that work alongside Italian-Americans at the Italian Market are of Asian descent and Mexican descent, and Vietnamese and Thai restaurants are interspersed with historic Italian ones in the Market area. The recent revitalization of Center City Philadelphia and the subsequent gentrification of adjacent neighborhoods has led to dramatic rises in prices of housing in the neighborhoods of historic Queen Village, Bella Vista, and some other parts of South Philadelphia.
Many of the community clubs that create the annual Mummers Parade every New Year's Day have traditionally been from South Philadelphia, especially those located on the largely Irish American S. 2nd Street ("Two Street") in the Pennsport neighborhood.[5][6][7]
Government and infrastructure[edit]
Portions of South Philadelphia are within Philadelphia City Council Districts 1 and 2. As of 2008 Council President Anna C. Verna and Councilman Frank DiCicco represent the two districts.[1]
The Philadelphia Fire Department operates nine fire stations serving South Philadelphia.[8] Most of South Philadelphia resides in Fire Battalion 1, headquartered at 711 South Broad Street. Portions of South Philadelphia reside in Battalion 4, headquartered at North 4th Street and Arch Street, and Battalion 11, headquartered at 43rd Street and Market Street.[1]
The Philadelphia Police Department patrols four districts located within South Philadelphia. The four patrol districts serving South Philadelphia are the 1st, 3rd, 4th, and 17th districts.[9]
According to the United States Census Bureau, South Philadelphia has an area of 9.7 sq. miles, of which none is water. South Philadelphia is located at 39°55′23″N 75°10′31″W / 39.9231°N 75.1753°W.
In 2010, the area's population was 168,782. It is home to a diverse population of Italian Americans, Irish Americans, African Americans, and Mexican Americans, with a growing population of Cambodian Americans, Vietnamese Americans, Chinese Americans, and Central Americans. Many residents have lived in the neighborhood for decades. Many family-owned businesses are found in South Philadelphia.[citation needed]
On January 22, 2010 the Associated Press said "South Philadelphia has been growing more diverse for decades, but the last 20 years have seen the greatest influx of Asian and Hispanic families."[10] David Elesh, a Temple University urban sociologist, said that of the almost 60,000 Philadelphia residents who reported being born in China, many lived in South Philadelphia.[10]
As of the 2010 Census, there are 168,782 people in 78,440 housing units. The population density is 16,771 people per square mile. 46.6% of the population is male, and 53.4% is female. The South Philadelphia area comprises the zip codes of 19145, 19146, 19147, and 19148. Data for the zip codes that make up South Philadelphia as of the Census 2000 Summary File:
Racial demographics[11][12][edit]
- Non-Hispanic White: 87,268 (51.8%)
- African-American: 43,404 (25.7%)
- Asian: 20,926 (12.4%)
- Hispanic or Latino: 12,866 (7.6%)
- Mixed or Other: 10,531 (6.1%)
- American Indian: 656 (0.3%)
I-95 runs north and south through South Philadelphia and, in this area, provides commuters with access to Philadelphia International Airport, I-76, the South Philadelphia Sports Complex, and the Walt Whitman Bridge. The Girard Point Bridge section of I-95 crosses over the mouth of the Schuylkill River, where it merges with the Delaware River.
I-76 becomes the Schuylkill Expressway at Passyunk Avenue in South Philadelphia and allows access between this section of the city and University City, Center City, 30th Street Station, and the western suburbs.
In addition, PA Route 291 serves as a major artery between the area and Delaware County, crossing the Schuylkill River via the Platt Bridge (named for Medal of Honor recipient George C. Platt). Broad Street is part of PA Route 611.
SEPTA's Broad Street Line subway services South Philadelphia and provides quick access to Center City and North Philadelphia. A number of SEPTA bus routes also serve South Philadelphia, ferrying commuters to and from Center City and its immediate suburbs, mostly those in Delaware County.
South Philadelphia is served by bike lanes on many streets going in all directions.[13] Snyder Avenue has bike lanes going East and West. Columbus Boulevard has North and South bike lanes. 22nd Street provides Northward lanes for cyclists. Some streets such as 11th Street have both Bike lanes and Sharrows or Shared lane marking.
In a 2007 Philadelphia Weekly article, the journalist Steve Volk stated that anti-drug activists said that South Philadelphia has secretive recreational drug dealing. More neighborhoods in the region are mixed-income than neighborhoods in some other regions; therefore, many drug dealers hide their activities. As in other parts of the city, drugs have contributed to crime.[14]
Primary and secondary schools[edit]
Public schools[edit]
Residents are with the School District of Philadelphia's South District.[1] Zoned public high schools in South Philadelphia include South Philadelphia High School, Audenried High School, and Furness High School.[15][16][17][18]
The Philadelphia High School for the Creative and Performing Arts (CAPA), a magnet school, is in South Philadelphia.[19]
The Mastery Charter Schools system operates the Thomas School (grades 7-12) in South Philadelphia. It was formerly the district school Thomas Middle School.[20]
Private schools[edit]
Saints John Neumann and Maria Goretti Catholic High School is in South Philadelphia. It is a merger of the former Saint John Neumann High School and the Saint Maria Goretti High School.[21][22][23] Philadelphia Free School is also located in the area.
Public libraries[edit]
Free Library of Philadelphia operates six branches in South Philadelphia: Charles Santore, Fumo Family, Queen Memorial, South Philadelphia, Thomas F. Donatucci, Sr. and Whitman.[24] Prior to its 1999 reopening in a new building, the Fumo Branch was known as the Ritner Children's Branch.[25]
Places of note[edit]
Perhaps the most famous landmark in South Philadelphia is the South Philadelphia Sports Complex at the corner of Broad Street and Pattison Avenue. Here, the Philadelphia Phillies (professional baseball), Philadelphia Eagles (professional football), Philadelphia 76ers (professional basketball), Philadelphia Flyers (professional ice hockey), Philadelphia Wings (professional lacrosse), Philadelphia Soul (professional arena football), Temple Owls (college football) and the annual Wing Bowl (an event sponsored by the sports talk radio station, 610-WIP) make their home in the massive state-of-the-art sports arenas surrounding the well-known intersection: Citizens Bank Park, Lincoln Financial Field, and the Wells Fargo Center.
The sports complex was once home to Veterans Stadium (The Vet) which stood from 1971 to 2004; JFK Stadium, which stood from 1925 to 1992; and the Spectrum, which was in use from 1967 to 2009 and was demolished in 2011. The NovaCare Complex, located on Pattison Avenue just west of the stadium area, serves as the practice facility of the Philadelphia Eagles. They now play at Lincoln Financial Field.
The intersection of 9th Street and Passyunk Avenue is home to the regionally famous Geno's Steaks and Pat's King of Steaks cheesesteak shops, fierce competitors in the local deli market for decades. Also, nearby is the city's open-air Italian Market, specializing in fresh produce, meats, and other foods. It is lined by specialty shops, such as butchers, bakeries and cheese/grocery stores, as well as one for kitchen goods, and new cafes and coffee houses. The area was featured in the film Rocky and its sequels. This is the heart of an annual street festival celebrating the neighborhood's food.
South Street has long been considered the border between South Philadelphia proper and Center City. It originally ran east and west (although traffic is now routed east one-way). Many bars, nightspots, shops, tattoo parlors, and restaurants are located along this neon-lit hotspot, with occasional live music venues (including the TLA) along the way.
The American Swedish Historical Museum is located in Franklin Delano Roosevelt Park. One of Philadelphia's last pre-World War I rowhouse synagogues, Congregation Shivtei Yeshuron-Ezras Israel, remains active in Philadelphia.
The Philadelphia Naval Shipyard, location of the alleged Philadelphia Experiment, is located in this section of town along the Delaware River. For decades during the World Wars and after, the shipyard was a major employer, whose craftsmen built new ships and repaired and maintained existing ones. With the decline in the military uses, the area is being redeveloped by the Navy and city for a variety of business and industrial uses.
The Sunoco oil corporation bases its headquarters along South Philadelphia's Passyunk Avenue. This is a short drive from the wide collection of car dealerships known as the "Philadelphia Auto Mall".
A refurbished area of South Philadelphia alongside Columbus Boulevard/Delaware Avenue (near the Walt Whitman Bridge) provides big box shopping at a Best Buy and an Ikea for thousands of shoppers. There are also many new chain restaurants and fast food establishments along this stretch, including Longhorn Steakhouse, Famous Dave's Bar-B-Que Pit, and Chick-fil-A just to name a few. This new shopping area goes by the name Columbus Commons.
Washington Avenue, between 16th St. on the west and Front St. on the east, is home to many Asian businesses, including Vietnamese, Chinese and Korean. Among these are restaurants of all types, two large Asian supermarkets, jewelers and a wide variety of specialty shops.
Passyunk Avenue, running on a diagonal from Broad Street to South Street, is a formerly thriving consumer district currently undergoing revitalization efforts. Within the past few years, several coffeeshops, restaurants and bars have opened which appeal to the younger population beginning to live in the area. In addition, a farmers' market is held on Wednesday nights at one of the squares.
The Arena (better known as the ECW Arena) at the corner of Swanson Street and Ritner Street is a venue known for hosting boxing and professional wrestling events.

Suppose I have $n=100$ observations of ordinal data and get threshold coefficients $b_1, \dots, b_3$ and probit slope $b_4$. I want to test the hypothesis $H_{0}: \frac{b_{3}}{b_{4}} = \frac{1}{2}$ vs. $H_a: \frac{b_{3}}{b_{4}} \neq \frac{1}{2}$. So I want to count the proportion of times we fail to reject the null hypothesis. To do this, would we just keep sampling 100 observations similar to the previous ones and return the proportion of p-values greater than $0.05$?

What a difference a year makes. Last September, Parenthood faced a shortened 15-episode season after three years of high critical praise but lukewarm ratings. But thanks in no small part to Kristina's heartbreaking battle with breast cancer, the tearjerker family drama transformed from bubble show to buzz show. Now the NBC series returns for a full 22-episode season on a brand new night, Thursdays at 10/9c.

Last year was a tough season for Parenthood, on-screen and off-screen.

With the success of reality series such as Teen Mom and High School Moms, TV is no stranger to teen pregnancy. However, it's still widely the exception rather than the rule that a scripted character — on a network show no less — will have an abortion. But after riding a wave of critical and commercial success thanks to its honest-to-life depictions of breast cancer and post-traumatic stress disorder, among others, Parenthood tackled the issue head-on in last week's episode. One minute, Drew (Miles Heizer) was worrying about college acceptance letters and the next, he was watching his girlfriend walk through the door at Planned Parenthood to take care of the unwelcome surprise. "We attempted to tell the story in a way that was balanced and would be fair to people watching the show who might have different points of view," showrunner Jason Katims tells TVGuide.com. "We've really been able to tackle difficult subjects in a way that is very honest and that's what we really were trying to do."
With just two episodes left in Parenthood's fourth season (Tuesday at 10/9c on NBC), Katims discussed the decision behind the shocking plot point, Sarah's (Lauren Graham) big decision between Mark (Jason Ritter) and Hank (Ray Romano), why there's hope for Amber (Mae Whitman) and Ryan (Matt Lauria) and previews one of his favorite scenes from... read more

It's funny how styles come back. The Austrian drapery treatment looks so pretty. My curtains are the same dusty mauve. They are very long and I plan on putting them back on my closet. First I have to find the right curtains or blinds for the window. It's fun to think, plan and design. :)

Warbird Obsession
It's an addiction. Admitting you have it is the first step.
- By Rebecca Maksel
- AirSpaceMag.com, December 03, 2008
John M. Dibbs / The Plane Picture Co.
The plucky Curtiss P-40 first flew in 1938. The single-engine, all-metal aircraft remained in service throughout World War II, and by December 1944, when production ceased, some 13,737 had been built.
When the United States entered the war, P-40s equipped many of the Army Air Forces' fighter units, especially in the China-Burma-India Theater, most famously with the American Volunteer Group, or the Flying Tigers. The unit, the first real opposition the Japanese military encountered, destroyed 115 Japanese aircraft, losing only 11 airplanes in air-to-air combat.
In 1945, when 22-year-old Donald Lopez began instructing newly arrived pilots destined for China, he discovered some resistance to the aircraft. "Some of the students who had trained on P-51s took a dim view of having to fly the old P-40s," Lopez, the late deputy director of the National Air and Space Museum, wrote in his memoir Into the Teeth of the Tiger. "They acted as though the P-40s were relics of World War I and never flew them enough to learn them as we did. They were not as fast as the newer fighters, but they were rugged, maneuverable, steady workhorses."
The Curtiss P-40M pictured is part of the Fighter Collection based in Duxford, UK.

Nice photo and info about the P38.
My Mother's youngest brother was a photographer in the US Army, stationed in Australia during WWII. He was killed along with the other crew while on a recon mission over New Guinea in a P38 in late 1942. The wreckage was not found until 1961 and the remains, identified by dog-tags, are buried in Arlington National Cemetery.

Saw a Spitfire fly in Owls Head ,Maine in the late 1970s. I heard the owners last name was Rockefeller,and it was WONDERFUL to HEAR that engine going at "full chat" at about 500 ft with a pilot who was driving it like he stole it! I still have the photos of that great plane from that great day on my desk, 30 years after... The magic of that day has allowed the smells,sounds, and SIGHTs to remain with me. It was a very good day!
Posted by Brian Beauregard on August 31,2009 | 09:21 PM
In 1955 I was just back from learning to fly an Aeronca when our little remote grass field on a hilltop was buzzed by a F-51 from the New York National Guard. (This happened several times that summer.) That was it and my obsession continues. The gathering of mustangs in Ohio was sensory overload. My Air Force duty just pacified my need to be near aircraft but B-47's just didn't do it. Went to an air show once and 3 Mustangs in a tight formation picture pass with Merlins wide open, Wow! said to my adult son "damn that's better than sex", he did give me a strange look but I could see he also understood. My dream even at 71 is to someday take a ride in Crazy Horse down in Kissimmee, Fl. My finger prints are on her as she was at Ohio.

Warbird aviation is an addiction that gets inside almost everyone because it stimulates all of your senses thouroughly!-"How can you not appreciate and marvel at what history has given to us as pilots,to fly or engage in at some level as crew or spectators"!
Posted by Kent Carlomagno on January 2,2010 | 12:33 PM
I bought this book for my son Jacob, who immediately spotted that his favorite aircraft of the period, the B-29, was not included. In such a comprehensive survey, one wonders why?
Posted by sam Engelstad on April 17,2010 | 11:33 AM
The P-47N model could hold two 1,000 pound bombs, one 500 pound bomb, eight .50 caliber guns, and ten HVAR rockets.

I consider myself very fortunate, I am a Docent at the Flying Heritage Collection in Everett. I get to watch these planes fly from Memorial Day until September. This is Paul Allen's private collection.

There are a lot of places in Colorado that sell household and kitchen appliances. From large corporations to small locally owned and operated appliance stores there are many different places that sell all sorts of appliances from dishwashers and ovens and stoves to refrigerators and washing and drying machines. If you are looking for a new household appliance it can often be difficult to know where to start the process. Luckily for the residents of Denver, Colorado there is a great appliance store that can help them find the new refrigerator or stove or oven that is right for them. This store is the Lynn Cunningham Appliance store and they have been serving the appliance needs of the people in Denver, Colorado for many years, since 1973 in fact. This is a company that cares about the work that they are doing and they care about selling only the highest quality and top of the line brands of all different types of household and kitchen appliances. The Lynn Cunningham Appliance store in Denver, Colorado and all of its employees are completely dedicated to the products that they sell and are committed to helping people find the kitchen or household appliance that they need and that is going to work best for them. These are people and a company that know that, not only a lot about household appliances, but also about how to treat the people that come to them looking for appliances and parts and who have questions about these items.
The Lynn Cunningham Appliance store is one that is so different from the other appliance stores in the city of Denver and in the state of Colorado because they really know what to do when it comes to selling high quality appliances for your home and they really know how to treat their customers. This is not an appliance store that is going to pressure you into buying the most expensive or newest model that they offer or that is out there on the market, but rather, these are customer service representatives that are going to make sure that they are working with you so that you get the appliance that you need and that is going to function the most productively in your household. This is an appliance company with people that know that your time, not to mention your money, is valuable and they want to make sure that they are helping you in any way possible. No matter what you are looking for when it comes to a new household appliance or any appliance parts that you may need for your current appliance these are the people and this is the company that is going to be there for you when you need them. Yes, there are a lot of different appliance stores in Denver, Colorado and all over the country, and you may not think that the one that you shop at matters. In the end, though, it does matter because you and your appliances are valuable and you are going to want to make sure you get the service and products that you deserve.

Charlottenburg Palace today is the largest residence of the Hohenzollern in Berlin. Originally built by Elector Frederick III as a summer residence for his wife Sophie Charlotte in 1699, the palace was later extended into a stately building with a cours d'honneur. The magnificent palace is surrounded by a baroque garden, in which diverse architectures melt into a unique ensemble. The entire palace presents itself with majestically equipped rooms and saloons and with top-class art collections that offer outstanding masterpieces: For example, one of the largest collections of French paintings of the 18th century outside of France. The ensemble of rooms and saloons – artistically as well as historically impressive – is a living testimonial of courtly culture and life from baroque times until the early 20th century.

Is there any plan to release a "Figureheads" set for the paras? I have two para jeeps being driven by guys with clearly non-para headgear*, and I would like to bring them up to spec, but I don't want to have to chop up two perfectly good para figures just to get their heads.
*I'm not sure why my para jeeps came with non-para drivers, maybe that's the real root of the problem.

This two-year strategic plan gives specific direction to Pima Community College as we respond to the needs of our community and prepare for future challenges and opportunities. The College is committed to meeting the changing needs of our diverse student population, local employers, and the government. The five initiatives that constitute this plan were designed to respond to the current and upcoming needs of those constituencies through focused strategies and specific actions. In addition, initiative content includes actions specifically intended to address and build upon feedback from the Fall 2010 reaccreditation visit by the Higher Learning Commission (HLC) of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools.
Overall, four of the five initiatives are related to student success and increased opportunities for students. The first of these is centered on developmental education. As the College has recognized in previous plans, developmental education is a challenge for institutions nationwide. The initiative in this plan aims to overhaul the developmental education system to better serve students. The second initiative continues the College's ongoing effort to improve student success and help students achieve their educational goals. The third initiative focuses on improvements to the way courses are provided and delivered at the College. The fourth initiative seeks to expand educational and workforce opportunities for students and deepen the College's relationship with the community. This involves developing partnerships and programs that help students transition after completing their goals at the College.
The fifth and final initiative focuses on internal College challenges and opportunities. Through its various strategies, this initiative is designed to improve the decision-making process at the College, ensure that the hiring process effectively recruits quality employees, improve communication within and between College entities, and effectively prepare the College for external funding opportunities.
Identified through the comprehensive planning process, all of these initiatives and their underlying strategies address current and upcoming College challenges, build upon existing College strengths, re-evaluate current College processes, and respond to the wide spectrum of community needs.

Oral in the Woods
I was traveling to various natural (and au naturel) hot springs in the woods. On one stop, there were several other people there, so I joined them in their open nakedness. Later, another man joined us. After about an hour, everyone but this new man and I left. We both stayed and enjoyed the hot, relaxing, natural spring water that soaked our naked bodies. He had a six-pack of beer and drank them while he soaked. When I decided to leave, I stood up on the rocks of the natural pool and dried myself off. The man came over, stood next to me, and watched me dry myself. As I reached over to grab my bikini briefs to put them on, he reached out and lightly touched my package. I was shocked but curious. I asked him if he wanted to do something. He said yes quietly and reached out again to fondle me. I immediately became excited and put my towel down. I turned to face him as he began giving me oral sex. I then sat down to relax as he did himself as he did me. Man, did this guy really enjoy oral sex. After several delicious minutes of naked ecstasy, he finished me off. He smiled, looked up at me and said, "I never do this unless I'm drunk." I said, "Well, I've never done this at all." After putting on my bikini briefs and dressing, it was time to leave. Before I left, I told him I had never had another man give me oral but that I really did enjoy it. I don't know if anything like this will happen again, but it sure was a turn on.
