I want to watch porn with him
Special Offer
I know my man likes porn, and I enjoy it as well. How do I get him to invite me to watch it with him as part of our foreplay?
Watching porn with a partner can give new meaning to the word "action"! Since you already know that your man is into it, simply suggesting that you view a dirty movie together in bed is sure to score two big thumbs up.
Next time you're at the video store, grab his hand and pull him over to the "Adults Only" section. Take your time to browse the shelves till you find a flick you can both agree on. Besides getting some erotic entertainment for the night, you can tap into your guy's secret desires and fantasies by checking out which movies he chooses. If you'd rather be more discreet and do your porn perusing in private, you can always order online. A couple of good sites to try: Toys in Babeland at babeland.com and Sineplex Entertainment at sineplex.com. Or you can contact your local cable TV company to find out what adult entertainment channels they offer on pay-per-view.
Another way to clue him in to your salacious cinematic leanings? Spring a sexy surprise on him. Invite him over for a private screening at your place -- just don't tell him he'll be attending an XXX premiere. Before he arrives, set the stage by lighting some candles and leaving lube, condoms and any other amorous accoutrements within easy reach. When he arrives, dim the lights, get him cozy on the couch and hit "play." Take your carnal cues from the movie and mimic the moves that turn you both on. Chances are, you'll both be so distracted, you won't find out -- or care -- how the movie ends.

The Jobfather
I need a favor. That is why I have come to you, Jobfather, for you are the only one in this bureaucratic world who can Make Things Happen. But let us dispense with the pleasantries, and get down to business. Are you familiar with Automated Online Job Form? That sleazy, two-bit bum who always seems to be standing between you and what you want, a job? This guy has caused nothing but headaches, dizziness, and carpal tunnel syndrome for millions, and it's high time he took a long walk off a short pier, if you get my meaning (I WANT YOU TO KILL HIM). See, A. O. J. Form knows that everybody, and I mean everybody, needs a job, so he's taken it upon himself to run interference on all these people by charging a fee whenever you want to submit a resume or cover letter to a company via the internet. What kind of fee, you ask? The worst kind. The kind you pay for in units of boredom, frustration, despair, anger, impatience, and contempt, thanks to hours, and I mean hours, of repetitive data entry. The worst part is, A. O. J. Form has set up operations at every major company in the world, but get this: every form is slightly different, so you have to start from scratch every time you apply. Also, A. O. J. Form deliberately uses technologies that are 10+ years old, because he knows the more cumbersome the interface, the less applications the companies he's running protection for will have to deal with. Oh, sure, he claims he's able to export your personal information from an uploaded resume, but he usually only gets around to extracting your first and last name, and for some reason it appears in ALL CAPS. How convenient! As you can see, Jobfather, I have a personal vendetta against this guy, and I would really appreciate it if you could take care of him, if you get my meaning (KILL HIM, KILL THIS GUY, MAKE HIM DEAD). In exchange for your services, I will agree to take a soul-crushing job when you come to me one day, out of the blue, and make me an offer I can't refuse.

Penn State Lushness
Wednesday, May 5, 2010 at 8:00 AM
As of today I have been in Pennsylvania for over a week now. I just can't get over the forests, the countryside, and the lushness all over the state. I just can't wait to move here in June. It will be a great new adventure that I will share with my wife-to-be! After work, I found a nice looking creek flowing through a forest. Lots of greenery!

NL East for LIFE
Filed Under (Chatter Up, Miami Marlins, new york mets, NL East Chatter, Phillies, Uncategorized) by Brothers verDorn on 30-05-2012
Tagged Under : Braves, Marlins, Mets, MLB, Nationals, NL East, NL East Chatter, Phillies
We've always been fascinated by players that seem to only play on teams in the NL East. That got us thinking– What current players can actually be considered NL East Lifers? You know what we mean…the guys that always pop up against your favorite NLE team, guys you feel like you are always facing, and before you know it they end up logging a stint with your team. In doing a little research we came up with a list of recent guys that are either mainstays of one NLE squad or perpetually resurface within the division. Enjoy this first post in a series of three…
Platinum Grade Lifers
(Current players, 6+ years of service, same team)
You may recognize some of these guys…
-David Wright (Mets)- May not be on this list for much longer, but he better be! The Wilpons might need to find another lucrative ponzi scheme or Flushing could be without their unofficial captain after 2013.
-Mike Pelfrey (Mets)- Now 7 years deep, the Wichita State boy had the best mouthpiece in the bigs, now he's relegated to the DL with Tommy John. Lick that elbow Mike, it couldn't hurt.
-Larry "Chipper" Jones (Braves)- ATL legend. 48 career dongs against the Mets, so he named his son Shea. Sigh. We're sure "LAAAARRRRRY" chants will abound as his video tribute is reluctantly played at Citi Field this year. Hopefully it's followed by a cordial, but subdued, applause for one of the NL East's best players. Stay classy Queens…
-Brian McCann (Braves)- He can't see too well, but doesn't seem to have a problem hitting. This homegrown talent can't be denied recognition.
-Martin Prado (Braves)- Super-utility man has logged 8 years for the Bravos. Searching for a position stunted his growth as an everyday player but when he's in there, he's dangerous.
-Ricky Nolasco (Marlins)- The all time wins leader in Marlins history. Wait, WHAT!?!? Not a typo, nuff said…
-Josh Johnson (Marlins)- Ace-like stuff, body like Tinman. No one wants to face this gunslinger when he's 100%
-Annibal Sanchez (Marlins)- The Floridian version of "The Sanchize" has more no-hitters to his credit than anyone in a Mets jersey…ONE! (can you tell what team we root for yet?)
-Jimmy Rollins (Phillies)- JRoll, originator of the skull cap and perpetual Met nemesis has etched his legacy as the NL East's most consistent SS in the past decade.
-Ryan Howard (Phillies)- The Pedro Cerrano of Philly. An improbable achilles injury during his last AB of 2011 has shelved this power threat for the beginning of 2012. If he comes back healthy, watch out NLE leaderboard.
-Chase Utley (Phillies)- If he gets two artificial knees, he might just be able to play again. Once a 2b fantasy god, because of his power, Chase is looking to resurrect his career in the second half of 2012.
-Cole Hamels (Phillies)- "Fake" tough dude. Plunking phenom Bryce Harper didn't garner many popularity votes for the Philadelphia lefty, but he's on pace for a stellar season.
-Kyle Kendrick (Phillies)- Seemingly traded to Japan, but somehow manages to make the list…in our opinion, he won't make the next one.
-Ryan Zimmerman (Nats)- David Wright's former AAU teammate has superstar potential and numbers, when he's healthy. Caveat being when he's healthy, which is rare. If he stays on the field he could live up to his contract in ways that current NL-Easters Jayson Werth and Jason Bay can't.
This is just one installment of the NL East for Life series, we dig deeper and get dirtier in the next two…stay tuned.
Feel free to respond with your suggestions.
In the meantime, enjoy the the most competitive division in the majors.

Well this has to be one of the coolest things I've ever heard of, an underwater hotel! The people over in Dubai are currently working on making it happen and if it does then the hotel would be the world's first underwater living ground for tourists.
Home to some of the most beautiful and progressive architecture in the entire world, Dubai will soon see the construction of a hotel with submerged, underwater rooms that offer unparalleled views of the Persian Gulf. Conceived by designers Deep Ocean Technology and dubbed the Water Discus Hotel, the building will be the first of several in the emirate and will feature an underwater section of 21 rooms, a dive center and bar up to 10 meters below the sea's surface. A unique lighting system will illuminate the scene outside the submerged rooms' windows while macro photography will also allows guests to zoom in on the surroundings for a better view. With the above-water portions of the hotel suspended high enough to avoid tsunamis and flooding, the underwater disc is engineered to surface in the event of a storm or other danger. _ SOURCE

One Surefire Way to Stand Out in Your Job Search by Louise Fletcher - Feb, 2010 Imagine if employers saw you as not just another job applicant, but as an expert in your field.

Restoring Your Joy in Job Search by Jacqui Barrett-Poindexter - Feb, 2010 Joy was palpable as the oversized airplane plane descended onto the tiny tropical landing strip.

What To Do When You Are Discouraged About Your Job Search by Miriam Salpeter - Feb, 2010 • What do you do when you're really, really, really discouraged about your unsuccessful job search? • How do you overcome the negative aspects of job search?

There's Always A Reason Not To Do Something In Your Career by Deborah Brown-Volkman - Feb, 2010 As a career coach, people are always talking to me about their careers. We discuss their dreams, wishes, and future plans. But when I ask some of these people how they will implement their plan, their reasons for not moving forward begin to flow. Their reasons vary.

Customer Service as Horror Story - Give It The Boot by Dawn Lennon - Feb, 2010 Ever wonder if really bad customer service is a conspiracy? Or is bad service just about poor leadership?

I would dodge his feet and try again. Well, my luck ran out. Up he went and down he came, digging his hoof into the outside of my le... |
One Big Lesson From The Olympics For Your Job Search by Harry Urschel - Feb, 2010 There have been a few articles I've seen using the Olympics to make a point related to a job search. However, I believe there's one point that's been fascinating to me but lost in many of the other discussions.

Think about that...in any spo... |

One waiter recommends the cheese baked chicken chop with sides of pasta, French fries, and vegetables molded in the shape of Kitty's face.
But it's a disappointment -- the chicken is gray and stringy, the cheese solidified, and tepid spaghetti sauce tastes like it's straight from a can.
Secured with cute Hello Kitty toothpicks, the mini burgers aren't much better, with stale buns and a selection of four bland fillings -- beef, chicken, fish, and tomato and mozzarella.
The Hello Kitty Homemade Ice Cream, on the other hand, provides a tasty end to an otherwise terrible meal. A concoction of fluorescent fruit loops and layers of whipped cream, the ice cream is creamy, refreshing, and actually tastes homemade.
The pink-overload restaurant is extremely popular with families, with plenty of toys for sale and an arts and crafts section full of kids.
When 6-year-old girl Jiang Yichen is asked if she has been excited to come, her mother sheepishly admits that it was her idea to bring the family for lunch as she is quite the Hello Kitty fan herself.

Michael Arrington has reported a rumour that Google "may be in the final stages" of a US$1.6 billion deal for video sharing behemoth YouTube.
If the rumour is true and the deal goes through it could be another coup for Google, though it might yet turn out to be a big headache for the search giant, as YouTube has some significant issues with regards to copyright and content control.
Nonetheless, YouTube is now a real A-list website among the world's internet users and surely it is just a matter of time before the founders accept an offer. The mooted valuation reflects the company's meteoric growth.
Google, for obvious reasons, told us that it couldn't comment on the rumour either way, as is company policy. YouTube is being reported as keeping schtum too.

Gord Hotchkiss, chair of search marketing association SEMPO, is bullish about the industry's prospects, saying 2007 will be a "watershed year" for localised advertising and that various other revenue channels will drive growth.
But in an exclusive interview, he also points to challenges facing the sector, including the lack of transparency over click fraud and an upcoming "showdown" between consumers and advertisers over search data.

More than 50% of Myspace's US visitors are now over 35 years of age, according to a report that shows the site's appeal to older internet users is increasing as its mainstream popularity grows.
The research, by comScore Media Metrix, shows the site's teenage visitors form a much lower percentage of its audience compared to last year, while over four in ten Myspace users are now between the ages of 35 and 54.

Remember last year's sad little Baseball Hall of Fame ceremony, when not a single living person was inducted into the Hall for the first time since 1965?
Good news! It won't be another joyless summer in Cooperstown. Three living, breathing beings -- managers Joe Torre, Tony La Russa and Bobby Cox -- have each had their tickets punched for immortality by the Hall's Expansion Era Committee. All three will no doubt be on hand next July to receive their plaques, and to regale a large crowd with charming anecdotes from their illustrious careers.

Lawyers for Martoma, the former SAC Capital Advisors fund manager, filed excerpts from a May 2012 deposition in which Cohen told attorneys for the Securities and Exchange Commission that he decided to sell SAC's stakes in Wyeth and Elan Corp. based on advice from the head of a different hedge fund. Martoma's insider-trading trial is scheduled to begin next month. His lawyers say the previously undisclosed testimony shows Martoma wasn't involved in Cohen's decisions on the trades.

All three posts are worth reading, with Douthat and Carney holding up the conservative high-end of a discussion that typically consists of two circular questions: Why do conservatives continue to abet racism in their ranks? And why do liberals insist on calling conservatives racist?
Perhaps the most eloquent response is found in Friday's Wall Street Journal, which seems to have inadvertently stumbled into the argument. Like a drunk walking home with a lantern, the paper's review of Timothy N. Thurber's new book, "Republicans and Race," is enlightening if you can follow the staggered trail of logic.

It's easy to be cynical about sports. We invest too much in our teams and athletes, and are invariably disappointed when they let us down, on the field and off. There are unseemly spectacles everywhere -- in the NFL's insistence that its game is safe, in the NCAA's exploitation of "student-athletes," in Major League Baseball's overzealous crusade to nail steroid users, in FIFA's willingness to award the greatest tournament in sports to a repressive Middle Eastern regime that treats migrant workers like modern-day slaves. The more cynical we get, the easier it becomes to forget that sports can provide moments that are not only physically awe-inspiring but emotionally moving and culturally transcendent.

Read more »Whatever else you might say about Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren, she has never been reluctant to take on the rich, the powerful or those who've avoided being held accountable for their role in the financial crisis. The latest example: a letter she sent this week to the heads of the six major too-big-to-fail banks asking them to disclose how much they give to think tanks.
As you know, your institutions are free to express your views to lawmakers and regulators through your lobbying efforts and those of the trade associations that represent you. But the law requires that there be transparency around your direct efforts to influence policymaking through lobbying, with disclosure about your lobbying expenditures. Under current law, however, your institutions are permitted to make financial contributions to think tanks without similar public disclosure. This means you can make enormous contributions that threaten both the independence and public credibility of the work of think tanks out of public view.
This is all fine and dandy, though no one should have very high expectations that the banks will voluntarily offer a tally of the money they give to research organizations. That's why Warren should go all-out and press for rule changes so that think tanks disclose how for-profit companies use their checkbooks to influence public policy.
Elisabeth Rosenthal of the New York Times has been writing a fascinating series on why health care costs so much in the U.S. In a recent article, she asks: Why do trips to the emergency room cost thousands of dollars even for the most trivial and routine of emergencies?
"One of the simplest and oldest medical procedures — closing a wound with a needle and thread — typically leads to bills of at least $1,500 and often much more," Rosenthal writes. Her explanation: "Hospitals are the most powerful players in a health care system that has little or no price regulation in the private market."

Solar photovoltaic (PV) technology, uses sunlight to produce electricity. Individual solar cells, each made from semiconductor materials, connect together to form PV modules and produce electricity. These solar modules, in turn, combine and connect to form PV arrays.
The New York Sun Competitive PV Program is part of the New York State RPS Customer-Sited Tier Program. NYSERDA invites proposals for the installation of customer-sited PV projects in New York Independent System Operator (NYISO) load zones A through J. All systems must be greater than 200 kW. Complete proposals that demonstrate project viability and capability will be competitively selected based on their incentive bid in dollars per kilowatt hour ($/kWh). All Projects must be installed within eight (8) months of the award date. For details, see PON 2589 New York Sun Competitive PV Program.
The Standard Offer PV Program offers homeowner incentives to help reduce the installation costs associated with photovoltaic (PV) or solar-electric systems of up to 25 kilowatt (kW) for residential customers and up to 200 kW for commercial customers in most of New York State. A 2 kW PV system provides about 20-30 percent of an average home's energy needs. For details, see Attachment H: NYSERDA Solar PV Program Manual [PDF] from PON 2112: Solar PV Program Financial Incentives.
The Standard Offer PV Funding Balance displays up to date information on the Standard Offer PV Program Incentive Budget.
The Clean Power Estimator uses the data provided to gather information about your utility rates, available sunlight at your site, and all available incentive and tax credits to generate a customized estimate of the costs and savings of installing a PV System using an eligible installer under NYSERDA's PV incentaive program.
Solar thermal technology uses collectors to capture the heat from the sun to produce hot water.
Incentives are available to residential (single and multifamily), commercial, and non-profit customers for new end-use Solar Thermal water heating system. You may be eligible to receive incentives to help fund the installation cost of Solar Thermal (ST) for the production of hot water to displace electrically heated hot water. Systems are capped at $4,000.00 per site/meter for residential systems and $25,000.00 per site/meter for nonresidential applications.

Wannabe football star hopes to emulate his Ivorian namesake
9:00am Sunday 22nd September 2013 in Other Football By Tim Ashton
Mitcham's wannabe football star Mory Kone is hoping to emulate his name sake's goal scoring ability as he attempts to win a professional football contract.
Striker Mory, 19, an Ivorian by birth, has entered Samsung's Win A Pro Contract competition in the hope of signing for either Swindon Town, Leyton Orient or Wycombe Wanderers.
Mory, who plays for Croydon College, said: "Arouna Kone is a great role model for our country. He has won the FA Cup with Wigan and now plays for a top club with Everton.
"Playing in the Ivory Coast is not as organised as it is here but there is a lot of talent there and many people dream of making it.
"My family came from the Ivory Coast to London to be together and have a better life and the next step for me is to win a professional football contract and represent my country, just like Arouna."
For the first time since Win A Pro Contract was launched in 2010, there are three professional contracts on offer as Wycombe Wanderers join Samsung's existing partnerships with Swindon Town and Leyton Orient.
Hopefuls will be tested at regional skills trials and 11-a-side matches as they bid to kick-start their dreams of becoming a professional footballer.

Before Nike became a global sports shoe and apparel superpower, founders Bill Bowerman and Phil Knight were just college track buddies experimenting with shoe sole inventions for better traction on their school's track surface. Their innovative shoe solutions soon lead to the birth of the Nike brand in 1972.
Aptly named after the Greek goddess of victory, the Oregon-based company grew into a forerunning sports outfitter for both world-class athletes and the active everyman.
Their early "word-of-foot" advertising helped catapult their high-performance athletic shoes into infectious popularity. Nike's running, cross-training and casual sports shoes have remained favorites for active men and women. Strategic cushioning and stabilizing technology are just some of the performance-enhancing features on which athletes know they can count.
Men's and women's outdoor fitness apparel are another Nike crowd-pleaser. Nike clothing designs blend classically streamlined athletic looks and compression support. And with features like quick-drying, moisture-wicking and sun-protective fabrics, Nike athletic pants, shorts, shirts, jackets and underwear are a fine match for any running, multisport or outdoor/indoor workout.
Nike also likes to help even the youngest athletes feel like their athletic star dreams are within reach. Nike kids' athletic pants, shorts, jackets, shirts and shoes offer the same classic appeal and performance-enhancing features.
Nike further decks out their athletes for success with accessories like workout headbands and the Nike+ sport kit, which syncs with your iPod to track your workout progress.
At REI, you'll find top-rated and top-selling sports shoes, clothing and accessories from Nike, plus plenty of sale and clearance bargains.

- " We had a perfect week over there. But you need to have a car. THIS IS TRUE OAHU. We hated Waikiki Beach and Honolulu after we were used to the Hawaiian way of life. Within more or less one hour you will reach every spot on the island. Breakfast is AWESOME directly from the organic farm never tasted such good bananas and pineapples. We got invited to Thanksgiving-Dinner by the staff - Thanks again for this it was an awesome experiences. "
- 26 Nov 2013 Matthias Germany
- " The staff is very hoslitable. .everyone smiles. I didnt encpunter anyone that was grumpy. The location is far enough from the main road yet just a brief drive to the uncrowded beaches. Breakfast had a nice variety with fresh fruit appreciates. I hope to stay here again in a few months. This was my second stay this year. Thank you! "
- 29 Oct 2013 Heidi USA
- " This is a quiet farm located in a gorgeous setting. But it is far away from most tourist attractions, about an hour or more to the Honolulu/Waikiki area. There are nice beaches near by and they aren't very crowded. If you're looking for a relaxing, low-key environment, this is your place. The place is clean, the free breakfast is great, and the staff are so nice. I love the place! "
- 24 Apr 2013 Christopher USA
- " Kahumana is out in the country, very peaceful and relaxing. If you don't mind being woken up by the roosters crowing, birds chirping, blowing breezes or Da Bus going by this is the best value for the money. No frills here. If your looking for Waikiki, maid service, kitchen and a private bathroom this is not the place for you. My daughter and I had a terrific time here and would definitely come back again. Mahalo Kahumana! "

SI units | |
1×10−3 m | 0.1 cm |
US customary / Imperial units | |
3.2808×10 −3 ft | 39.370×10 −3 in |
The millimetre (International spelling as used by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures) or millimeter (American spelling) (SI unit symbol mm) is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to one thousandth of a metre, which is the SI base unit of length.
It is equal to 1,000 micrometres and 1,000,000 nanometres. There are 25.4 mm in one inch, so a millimetre is equal to 5⁄127 of an inch.
Since 1983, the metre has been defined as "the length of the path travelled by light in vacuum during a time interval of 1299,792,458 of a second."[1] A millimetre, 11000 of a metre, is therefore the time travelled by light in one 1299,792,458,000 of a second.
Unicode symbols[edit]
For the purposes of compatibility with Chinese, Japanese and Korean (CJK) characters, Unicode has symbols for:
- millimetre (㎜) - code U+339C[2]
- square millimetre (㎟) - code U+339F[2]
- cubic millimetre (㎣) - code U+33A3[2]
On a metric ruler, the smallest measurements are normally millimetres.[3] Digital Vernier callipers are commonly capable of reading increments as small as 0.01mm.[4]
Microwaves with a frequency of 300Ghz have a wavelength of 1mm. Using wavelengths between 30 and 300 Ghz for data transmission, in contrast to the 300Mhz to 3Ghz normally used in mobile devices, has the potential to allow data transfer rates of 10 Gigabits per second.[5]
The smallest distances the human eye can resolve is around 0.02 to 0.04mm, approximately the width of a human hair.[6] A sheet of paper is typically between 0.07 and 0.18mm thick, with ordinary printer paper or copy paper approximately a tenth of a millimetre thick.[7] The thinnest phone as of 2013[update] is the Huawei Ascend P6, at 6.2mm thick.[8]

Biography (Critical Survey of Poetry: British, Irish, & Commonwealth Poets)
Born Thomson William Gunn, Thom Gunn grew up in the London suburb of Hampstead Heath, "forever grateful" that he was "raised in no religion at all." During the Blitz, he read John Keats, Alfred, Lord Tennyson, and George Meredith, who have all influenced his verse in various ways. His parents—both journalists, although his mother had stopped working before his birth—were divorced when he was eight or nine. After two years in the British army, Gunn went to Paris to work in the offices of the Metro. He attended Trinity College, University of Cambridge, during the early 1950's; there he attended the lectures of F. R. Leavis and began to write poetry in earnest, publishing his first book, Fighting Terms, in 1954, while still an undergraduate. He worked briefly on the magazine Granta and, as president of the English Club, met and introduced Angus Wilson, Henry Green, Dylan Thomas, and William Empson, among others. Here he also became a pacifist, flirted with socialism, hitchhiked through France during a summer vacation, and met Mike Kitay, his American companion, who influenced his decision to move to the United States.
After graduation, Gunn spent a brief period in Rome and Paris. At the suggestion of the American poet Donald Hall, Gunn applied for and won a creative writing fellowship to Stanford University, where he studied with the formalist poet and critic Yvor Winters. After a short teaching stint in San Antonio, Texas,...

Biography (Magill's Survey of World Literature, Revised Edition)
Thomson William Gunn was born on August 29, 1929, at Gravesend, a small town in Kent on the Thames. His father, Herbert Gunn, was a successful journalist, and Thom Gunn had a privileged middle-class upbringing that was marred by the divorce of his parents and the death of his mother, Ann Charlotte Thomson Gunn, when Thom was twelve. The family had moved earlier to fashionable Hampstead, nearer London, and Gunn attended University College preparatory school. Gunn did not go immediately to a university after completing secondary school because he was drafted into the British army, in which he served for the required two years. He then entered Cambridge University in 1950, where he read English literature and began writing the poems that would make his reputation. The dominant figure at Cambridge during that period was F. R. Leavis, a critic who stressed the necessity of following tradition; he may have had some influence upon Gunn, but the rule of tradition was alien to Gunn's exploratory and innovative poetry. Gunn consistently broke away from the mainstream of received critical opinion.
After Cambridge, Gunn went to Stanford University on a creative writing fellowship. At Stanford, he studied under the American poet and critic Yvor Winters. Winters had a great influence upon Gunn, especially in his belief that poetry is made up of logical propositions and...

Biography (Magill's Survey of World Literature, Revised Edition)
The publication of Collected Poems established Thom Gunn as a major English poet. He wrote with great skill and precision in traditional and experimental styles. Moreover, he refused to be fixed in one poetic mode or subject. He constantly explored and found new styles and subjects for his poetry. His unique accomplishment was to retain the grace and force of tradition while transcending its thematic confines.
(The entire section is 66 words.)
Biography (Cyclopedia of World Authors, Fourth Revised Edition)
Despite Thom Gunn's assertion that "my life contains no events," his career is of the greatest interest to students of modern poetry, since it mirrors significant cultural movements from an Anglo-American perspective. His work, likewise, reflects a fusion of the best in the modern poetic traditions of Britain and the United States.
Thomson William Gunn's parents were of Scottish origins, both journalists with socialist sympathies. His father became editor of the Daily Sketch, a popular national newspaper. Gunn's early years were spent moving with his father's job until the family settled in Hampstead, London. His parents divorced in 1938; his mother died when he was fifteen. After graduating from University College School, he did compulsory National Service for two years before proceeding to Trinity College, Cambridge University, in 1950.
While there, he met a group of young poets and became committed to poetry as a vocation. He was particularly influenced by the lectures of F. R. Leavis, a brilliant teacher and critic. Gunn's first volume of poetry, Fighting Terms, consists of poetry written at this time and demonstrates the technical mastery of a wide range of verse forms typical of all of his poetry. After graduating in 1953, he received a creative writing fellowship at Stanford University in California and,...

Biography (Poetry for Students)
Thompson William Gunn was born in Gravesend, Kent, England, on August 29, 1929. His parents, both journalists, relocated to the London suburb of Hempstead Heath, where they outlasted the Blitz and the rigors of the war. His late teens saw a stint in the British Army and a brief period living and working in Paris. It was there that Gunn made his first serious foray into writing, reading the French masters and trying his hand at fiction. In the early 1950s, he attended Trinity College at Cambridge and published his first collection of verse, Fighting Terms, while still an undergraduate. A creative writing fellowship at Stanford University brought him to the San Francisco Bay Area in 1954. In 1958, Gunn accepted an offer to teach at the University of California at Berkeley, all the time keeping one ear tuned to the sexual and cultural revolution sweeping through San Francisco and the nation. After a year in London, Gunn gave up the university post in 1966, teaching briefly at Princeton University and immersing himself in the rhythms of New York City's bohemian enclave, Greenwich Village.
Despite the move to the East Coast, Gunn would not stray from San Francisco for long. His more than thirty books of poetry and prose bear witness to an ever-evolving style of clarity and emotional honesty. Gunn could be best described as an Anglo-American poet, known for his interest in both traditional and free verse and the facility with which he moves between the...

June is the month for dolphin fishing offshore. The big dolphin of the spring are starting to fade away, but the new schools of mahi-mahi are forming up offshore and making their way up our coast. The June dolphin are the smaller sized dolphin, 3-5 pound fish or "schoolies" as we call them. They don't last too long out there swimming around by themselves, so they school up into big congregations of fish, sometimes as many as hundreds of fish in a single school. They can be tough to find out there, as they are always moving around and it is a very big ocean. The majority of the fish this time of year are 10-14 miles offshore. I like to run out there about 10 miles offshore and start trolling. For dolphin, you just have to put in your miles 'till you find something. Keep a constant eye out for weedlines, current edges, slicks (which could indicate blood and fish oils rising to the top from fish feeding), flying fish getting chased up by something other than the boat, any kind of birds especially frigate birds, and any kind of debris you find floating. Finding something to fish to, and covering a lot of ground is the key to finding dolphin schools. Find one school, and you can load the box with fish! When you find your school of fish, pull out the 20 pound spinning tackle and bail them. Keep one dolphin fish hooked up and in the water out there, and the whole school of fish will stay nearby so that you can bail them on the light gear.
Dolphin fishing is fun in the summer months, especially June, but you do need a full day 8 hour charter to give it a real shot at dolphin fishing. If you've only got a half day to go fishing, stay in on the reef and go trolling for bonitos and kingfish. They action is great trolling the reef, you'll hardly ever not be hooked up. To catch the bigger kingfish, blackfin tuna and wahoo on the reef, slow trolling live baits is very effective, especially from the downrigger. The biggest fish seem to stay deeper in the summertime, perhaps to stay in the cooler water column. The downrigger can put a live bait right in front of their face, an offer they can't refuse. Wreck fishing can also be fun this month. Black groupers are biting good on the 80-260ft deep shipwrecks. Also barracuda, jacks, mutton snappers and sometimes cobia bite good this month live baiting around the wrecks. Good luck out there fishing everyone. Tight Lines and Good Fishing!
