Don't Want to Have Sex?
How can I stick to the promise I've made to myself to wait?
I'm a Christian, and I have decided to save myself till marriage. I'm perfectly fine with that. My boyfriend is fine with that too (we've been together a month), and respects my decision. However, like any celibate person would admit, sometimes I get these truly surreal urges for sex: I catch myself thinking that maybe even a little bit of touching while kissing would be fine, or I just think about what it would be like if we ever got married and ended up sleeping together. I have said nothing to my boyfriend, in case he misconstrues it as an invitation, but it has recently been very, very difficult to resist, especially with all these hormones making me want sex. I want to stay true to my decision to stay premaritally celibate, and I will pride myself on not being tempted, however my urges make the battle all the harder sometimes. Any suggestions?
What if I never want or feel ready for sex?
Okay, well here is the thing: I'm a girl and I'm so afraid to be in a relationship for too long, because I think that I'm going to have to have sex. I know that my boyfriend right now wants it, but I really don't. He says he'll wait for me, but I'm still scared. I don't think that I will ever be ready to do it, and so I'm worried. What if I am NEVER ready?!
Comprehensive Sex Ed for the Comprehensively Celibate
As someone who was all but completely celibate throughout high school and this was not at all by conscious choice, I can tell you that I often found it frustrating to deal with the fact that a lot of teenagers were under- or mis-informed about safer sex, that a lot of teenagers were sexually active, and that a lot of politicians and think tanks believed in stanching teenage sexual activity entirely. I was fourteen when I started listening to Loveline (though I didn't always agree with Dr. Drew) and it began my path of sex-pertise (as it were). I was eager to get informed.
He was sweet at first, but then I said no to sex...
I'm a 15 year old virgin and at the beginning of the summer holidays a met this guy through a friend of mine. We got on really well and started dating about a week after we met. The only problem is now we've been going out for a few weeks he's started to change, he's not as sweet and caring anymore and has started to try to get me to do more sexual things with him. He says his last girlfriend and him had sex after two weeks and doesn't understand why I will only do basic things. Up until now I've found it so easy to tell people I don't want to do something, but I've told him I don't think we've been dating long enough to do anything serious and he won't listen. Please give me some advice, I'm worried soon I won't have the guts to stand up to him and I don't want to be rushed into anything I don't want to do.
I wasn't ready for sex, so he opted out of being with me, and now I feel like a loser.
There's this guy I've known for a long time. We were going to pursue a relationship. The problem is he has a high sex drive and I'm a virgin at 22. He's a lot older: he's 28.
The fact I'm a virgin - it's a issue to him. I want to take my time and wait until I'm ready. He can't understand why I'm not ready. Anyway we decided not to take it further. He decided to get back with his ex as she can give him everything he wants and needs. I can't help but feel insecure and inadequate. I keep comparing myself to her. Thanks for your help.
It's Between God and Me
Waiting till marriage.
My girlfriend wants to have sexual intercourse and I'm waiting till marriage. I'm sure she will be the one, but I believe sex should happen after marriage. What do I do?
I feel awful about my previous sex life, but am worried if it's really okay for me to change.
I'm very embarrassed to say that over the last year I have been very promiscuous, as in to having sex with 15 different partners. I have gotten over that phase, and I have sworn to stay celibate for at least six months. My question is whether or not it is possible for me to be tight again? Also, if it would be right for me to make a future boyfriend wait a while, before having sex with him? I mean, I gave it up to someone I just met, why would I make my 'boyfriend' wait? Please help, I feel so horrible with myself. I think that staying celibate will help me regain respect with myself, but, of course, I can never forget it.
Did he break my virginity with dry humping?
I am a 23 year old virgin and have pledged to remain so until marriage. I recently had an intimate moment with one of my guy friends. I sat on his lap while he kissed my neck but he had an erection and I felt his pennis almost at the entrance of my vagina thought I had all my clothes including trousers on. We had agreed from the start that we wouldn't have penetration as that would break my virginity.
At some point he wanted to demonstrate to me the so-called "doggy style" and he did but still with my trousers tight on. However I did feel his erect pennis around my virginal area but no entrance. This was quite a vigorous activity and I did get well stimulated and wet and some bumps up and down!
All through this I did feel his erect pennis round my vagina even with my trousers on but didn't feel any penetration nor had any bleeding or pain afterwards. My concern is that could I have lost my virginity by any chance through this??

UCLA could be woefully thin in the frontcourt to start the season after the school announced Monday that Travis Wear was being treated for appendicitis at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center. It's unknown how much time Wear will miss.
With the start of the season just 10 days away, the Bruins have two healthy big men in David Wear and Tony Parker. Freshman Wanaah Bail is still recovering from knee surgery in late June to repair torn cartilage.
[Related: Eight college basketball programs on the decline]
Travis Wear, a 6-foot-10 senior, was the Bruins third leading scorer (10.9 ppg) and second leading rebounder (5.2 rpg) last season. UCLA has two exhibition games scheduled over the next six days, which should give coach Steve Alford an opportunity to get a feel for how to deal with Wear's absence when the season begins Nov. 8.
The Bruins start the season with three home games over 10 days against Drexel, Oakland and Sacramento State.

North Yankton
State of North Yankton
The street map of Ludendorff, North Yankton
|Grand Theft Auto V
|State of North Yankton
North Yankton is a American state in the HD Universe appearing in Grand Theft Auto V. North Yankton is on the American/Canadian border and contains the town of Ludendorff. North Yankton is based on the real-life state North Dakota. The state is rural and the climate is primarily cold with the state covered in snow in both its appearances in GTA V. A misconception is that North Yankton is covered in snow year round, this however is impossible as there are no Canadian/American border states that are winter year round. The only way this would be possible is if the entire state was located in a high altitude mountain range. However large mountains surround Ludendorff confirming the states is likely sea-level. The states police force is the North Yankton State Patrol.
Events of HD Universe
It is presumed that Amanda and Michael Townley, Trevor Philips, Bradley Snider and Lester Crest lived within the state prior to the 2004 bank robbery that took place in Ludendorff. The bank robbery, however, is foiled after Michael made an agreement with FIB agent Dave Norton to sell out the Trevor and Brad in order to avoid prison. Their getaway car is wrecked after colliding with a train and they attempt to escape on foot. Agent Norton then shoots Brad and Michael. Trevor briefly attempts to rescue them by killing a number of police officers but is forced to flee. He initially holds a woman hostage and later manages to escape in the mist. Brad dies from his injuries but Michael survives. He and Amanda, with their children Jimmy and Tracey, leave the town after Michael's 'funeral' at the towns main church.
In 2013, Trevor finds Michael living in Los Santos and begins working with him once more. Their working relationship, however, sours and Trevor begins thinking about the body buried in Ludendorff in 2004. He later returns and digs up the grave where he finds the decomposed remains of Brad Snider shortly after Michael attempts to convince him not to open the casket. Trevor leaves, returning to San Andreas, while Michael is forced to take on members of the Wei Cheng Triad who eventually manage to kidnap Michael. The Ludendorff page on Lifeinvader is later updated saying that they 'haven't seen anything like this since the bank got robbed 9 years ago'.
North Yankton's climate is cold throughout the year with snow covering the state year round. While San Andreas is shown to be sunny throughout the year with the exception of the Christmas period, Ludendorff is shown to be covered in snow with a "heatwave" of 51 degress farenheit (10.5 degress celsius) causing drivers to keep snow tires on year round.
Mission appearances
- "Yankton" is the name of a real-life town and county in South Dakota, as well as an unincorporated community in Oregon.
- A North Yankton post card can be found on the official GTA V website.
- The player can not explore Ludendorff in either of its two appearances as the mission will fail. The player can also not take pictures in the missions.

I'm wondering if there is a simple way to do a real basic mailing list.
Essentially a list of users, an authorized user emails that list, it goes out. It gets rejected if a non authorized user sends to the address. I'm thinking something to be used for departmental and company wide emails, something that needs control so people don't start spamming all the users.
Has anyone run across something like this? I saw the http://www.zimbra.com/forums/adminis...man-howto.html post, but that is more than I need and mailman is such old tech many of my users don't like to deal with the version we have now. It only needs one way communication, and only a very select few senders, preferably with the option to hold the mail for review first.
I suppose I could just turn the capability to accept mail on and off, but that is a bit of a kludge which I don't want to operate every time a manager wants to send out a department email.

He has some decent teams recruiting him as well. Nice to see ISU getting early commitments like this.

Had interest from Iowa, Vandy, K-State, Boise St and an offer from Western Mich.

EDIT: My bad, Dopey already posted the link.
interesting for sure. wonder why a cali kid has committed well over a year in advance to iowa state.
I believe he is from Iowa originally
Is this ISU's earliest commit ever?
Looks like a pretty good athlete. Runs the 100, 200, 400, and does long jump.
Looks like our 2012 class is quite heavy on QB, and not a single DT on the list yet. We should be recruiting more D line players.
Good news. Another early commitment, someone the staff wants.

Dirty French Opens September 2
The tarte au citron will be made with preserved lemons.
Fans of Team Torrisi who've already visited the Ludlow Hotel's Lobby Bar to sample Thomas Waugh's excellent drinks will be thrilled to learn that Dirty French, the restaurant side of the F&B; operation, will open in one week. We've already had a sneak peek at the frisée aux lardons with giblets and heard all about the table-side oyster service, and now Rich Torrisi has a few tantalizing new details for the Times, including news that the tarte au citron will be a classic rendition save for the fact it's made with North African preserved lemons. The restaurant is now accepting reservations, at 212-254-3000. [NYT, Related]

Someone on YouTube asked me what I thought of STD's and general ways to prevent them.
Obviously- the key is not get them in the first place.
A quick search on Google revealed the same generic "advice" and nothing that most of us don't already know.
Of the three, only #3 is practical for our lifestyle.
Obviously advice like-
"Stay at home. In fact- wrap yourself in plastic wrap and foil any time you answer the door,"
is essentially useless to us.
Hopefully this quick post and video sheds some light on STD's and gives unique emergency way to prevent them if you think you've been infected.
Unless you are fucking pigs or mosquitoes that carry viruses,* selecting your partners wisely (or at least trying to) will certainly play a factor in avoid disease, after all- it takes two to share a disease.
Sexually Transmitted Diseases; Non-Mainstream Emergency Prevention, How To Screen Girls for STD's
For the record, as of June 2013, I have not have contracted any STD's.
The two times that I had a "scare" (my screening method was iffy and I was really drunk), I immediately went through most of the emergency procedure I talk about in the video. There's not guarantee that my little method worked but it certainly didn't hurt.
For the record, as of June 2013, I have not impregnated any women.
Other than literally 2 or 3 times, I have always used a condom with new partners. These days, I take it as seriously if not more seriously.
The times that the condom split- I made sure the girl grabbed the morning after pill, often I accompanied her to get it the following morning. It's about $40 at a pharmacy and it's free in Los Angeles at those planned parenthood clinics.
To me, and others with a brain, if you don't want to make a child - WRAP UP YOUR DICK.
I've always known that and taken it seriously, maybe because of where (and how) I was raised - having illegitimate children was just about my worst fear.
(in a high school case of about 600-700 students, there was maybe 2 girls who got pregnant)
You were trash if you had a kid before age 21.
Long Discussion With Myself On Why I Wasn't Concerned that My Girls Had STD's
long random video, for guys that really want to know where I'm coming from.
All this recent discussion on STD's is somewhat new to me (as you can see, I really have to think about stuff), to be honest- I was never super concerned.
For one, I always have condoms with me (yeah 2 of them, in my wallet) and my partners just aren't the types that don't care about get pregnant or STD's. Because of their obsession with their "careers" and social status, they just aren't the types that usually have STD's. That might sound totally naive but that's how I've viewed it for years.
While it's IMPOSSIBLE to stereotype every girl I've been with, or even the "type" of girl I hook up with- the girls I've slept with never struck me as irresponsible. Maybe that is wishful thinking, but I've never had an STD's and hopefully won't ever get one.
College girls might get wild, but they aren't usually irresponsible when it comes to their sexual health. Neither are these 'higher status' LA babes. It's not "okay" to them if a random guy like myself cums in them and sends them home.
to download the video goto: http://www.keepvid.com
For what my opinion is worth-
(and again, it's my opinion you are free to disagree and judge)
Even those I've gotten down with girls very quickly, sometimes in less than 30 minutes, I don't think the vast majority of the girls were "trashy" and wouldn't have cared if I didn't wear a condom.
I'm not into trashy girls.
These girls would probably strike you as popular "high [social] status" girls.
(I describe these girls in the "Swag Factor" article)
There's a difference between a girl who looks (and dresses up) sexy and a girl that is straight up trashy.
Admittedly, Hollywood has blurred this line.
The majority of girls don't look like "sluts" and their experience levels widely varies.
Obviously, I don't really get to know the girl unless they become my fuckbuddy for a month or so, but the majority of the girls I end up with are fairly ambitious (or at least somewhat driven) women.
They don't want to get pregnant.
Their friends aren't single mothers.
They are from at least middle class families and don't want to live on the state (a lot of them have rich parents, for some reason).
They think girls that get pregnant or infected are irresponsible white trash (there, I said it.).
Their social reputation alone discourages them from practicing anything but safe sex.
They are usually college girls or [try to play the role of] career-minded individuals, even though by most standards- their 'career' choices (actress, model, entertainment, singer, MILF in training, fitness girl, whatever) are considered quite superficial.
Again, ambitious/driven girls- that doesn't necessarily mean "smart" (raw intelligence) or "desk job".
Take hot college girls for example, at major universities (not the ones at community colleges that with poor high school grades and test scores, work a part-time job and don't have a social circle)- they want to party, they want to be popular, they want to have sex and experiment with their bodies (and drugs and alcohol)- but VERY FEW of them are willing to jeopardize their future (and social standing) by getting pregnant, getting a disease or getting a drug habit.
Does that make sense?
I'm trying to give you guys an idea of who these girls are.
These women wouldn't strike you as irresponsible sluts. In fact, I [like to] think they are pretty selective about who they sleep with.
The best way to describe it because I was quite like this myself- these girls are simply in the 'party stage' of their lives but that doesn't mean they are completely irresponsible. Just because they are out drinking and partying at age 22, doesn't mean they are going to be doing the same thing in 5 or 10 years, or even a year from now (they general begin the serious career/boyfriend search at age 23-24). Just because they are party girls, hungry for attention, doesn't mean they don't have a brain and wouldn't panic (and call their parents) if a random guy were to cum in them.
Though it seems like a paradox- "responsible party girls," that's how I'm going I'm going to sum it up.
Maybe "not irresponsible party girls" is better. Those are women that made it into my bed in the past 4.5 years.
Again, this is my opinion. It is IMPOSSIBLE to stereotype or generalize all the women I've been with. And That's not even because I've "been with soooooo many," it's because it's a stereotype, while true for the most- lend themselves to obvious exceptions. Certainly there were some girls that even struck me as "trashy" but I've also ended up with virgins that have never had a boyfriend.
(related post: "Aggressiveness Only Gets Sluts?")
(emergency method, in addition to condom use)
This post and especially this sub-topic is subject to our medical disclaimer.
This is NOT a substitute for safe sex and condom use.
This method is not proven to prevent the exchange of sexually transmitted diseases.
Ask your doctor about this method or he has any other 'do-it-yourself' methods that you can do in addition to practicing safe sex.
This is my emergency method to prevent STD's, I've used it in-full 2 times and in-part a few more times.
Based on the clinical studies I gathered (and also the vote of confidence from a medical professional) it should significantly reduce the chances of being infected by an STD's (assuming is remains alive on the surface on your genital region).
Like I mention in the video, I always use condoms and though it's wishful thinking- I highly doubt my most of my partners have/have been exposed to STD's. To put it in perspective, I don't get real kinky with 1st time partners. It takes a little while to build trust to experiment with girls.
I also have "screening" methods that I mention in the video that seem to shed light on if they have been exposed to any STD's.
This routine might be overkill but it beats getting Herpes or HIV (right?)
1. Prior to sex/getting naked, put Purell/Hand Sanitizer on your dick and rub it in.
This kills 99% of bacteria and might be helpful to defend against any viruses that someone end up on the inside of the condom.
2. Before going down on a girl or putting your dick in her, spray a liberal amount of PJUR MED (not an affiliate link) on her pussy and your dick.
This formula doesn't have alcohol and the active ingredient 'Chloroxylenol' is clinically proven to kill Herpes, HIV and potentially other STDs. You can spray it in your mouth and her pussy. It tastes like sugar water.
I actually keep a bottle of it in my car and slip it in my pocket if I end up at the girl's place.
If you know me though- you'll know that I end up at MY PLACE 98% of the time. I'm HUGE on having ideal logistics where I can control EVERYTHING.
(in the video I talk about 'what to do' if you are uncomfortable about spraying the girl with this stuff)
*** Put on a condom now ***
Condoms with spermacide may kill various virus strains and bacteria cultures as well.
A nurse I used to see at UCLA Hospital told me this. It certainly couldn't hurt.
3. After sex, especially if you've gone down on a girl, go into the bathroom is begin to rinse your mouth with Listerine mouthwash.
Listerine is clinically proven to kill Herpes Simplex among other virus/bacteria. Rinse your mouth for 60-75 seconds if you can. I can't, it's way too strong. I dilute it with water and just try my best to hit 60 seconds. Listerine makes a 'sensitive gums' formula (the purple one) that one is a little easier to use.
4. While rinsing your mouth with Listerine, just like in step number #1 apply Purell back on your ENTIRE crotch region, rub it in until it goes away.
5. After you dick is dry - spray PJUR on it once again, spray it until it's REALLY wet. You can spray it in your penis hole and I recommend that you do. Don't worry- it doesn't hurt.
6. While it's wet, pour and/or rub 99% Rubbing Alcohol on your dick (91% isopropyl alcohol will probably suffice), rub it ALL AROUND your genital area. Rub it around vigorously.
Isopropyl Alcohol kills HIV, Hepatitis and Herpes ON CONTACT and is likely the most effective compound to kill STDs that may remain on the surface. This is probably the MOST IMPORTANT step.
7. Dry your dick off with a towel.
*8. Spray your crotch AGAIN with PJUR, again make it REALLY WET. (optional)
*9. While it's soaking wet, spray Lysol on your dick. It won't hurt or irritate your region because you've diluted the area with Pjur. (optional)
You can use the the Lysol sanitizing wipes as a replacement. Make sure whatever you are using has "Benzalkonium Chloride".
This might seem crazy but Lysol (benzalkonium chloride) kills Herpes, HIV and potentially other STDs (gonorrhea that is still topical) that the Purell, alcohol and Pjur might not have a killed.
*10. Leave the Lysol on, since you sprayed the area with Pjur (which has a water base), it shouldn't irritate your skin. It's never irritated mine.
*11. If the condom is in the trash, spray it with Lysol too.
You've thought about it long enough.
Hello my good friends please do not see this strange cause it my life story about my healing, i was having HIV for good 6yrs. Things were not working fine for me due to my health status i know longer have friends know lover it even takes time before my family co-operate with me due to this i tried all possible means i can to get this devilish sickness out of my body i went to hospitals hierarchies and other heath organization but all remains the same still yet i never gave up cos i was not born with this illness so i decided to take it over to the internet to see if i could get remedy, on my search i saw a testimony of a woman, she said she was also having a terrible sickness for over 3yrs but now she is healed i was surprise at first when i saw her test so she wrote a name dr EHIAGHE and also gave his email id so i mailed them which is (firstname.lastname@example.com) i told them about my problem and after the processes he told me that am healed but i never believed he told me to go and confirm it from the hospital were i have been taking treatment still i never believed also although he gave me evidence that the sickness was gone.
Finally i decided to go for check up and to my surprise my doctor said the sickness was know longer there with thought of joy i started shearing tears.
My friends today am now married bless with 2kids, so if you have any sickness kindly email (email@example.com) sir i will forever remain in you debt.
Thank you sir am grateful.
Just a quick comment from an RN. You mentioned using 91% isopropyl alcohol. What you should actually use in this case is 70% or something close to that. There's a reason that all the hand sanitizers are around that 70% mark, and it's because, for whatever reason, the 70% concentration is actually MORE effective at killing organisms than the higher concentrations. Weird I know, but studies have proved it.
its depends man.. its hard to stereotype all sexually-active girls as 'sluts'. the majority of girls Ive hooked up with wouldnt be down to raw dog it
Chrisss this is some of first unsound logic I heard from you in awhile!
90%+ girls are trashy! (by trashy I mean willing to have sex the first night and do not request a condom to be worn) I'm 22 senior in college at SUNY Albany and have had sex with over 100 girls (variety nerdy, sorority, athletes, freshman, seniors, high school(while in HS!), milfs etc). Probably have used a condom 20% of the time, probably get asked to use one 5% of the time (roughly 75 on the first night) I am friends with other alphas who express similar feelings about most girls being skanks if the time is right! Sounds like I am a slut basher but I am not, I love women, and I love the rare case when they make me wait. Wish there were more good ones out there. Luckily I have never experienced a pregnancy or have had an std. I think I a lot of this due to not cuming in girls. Think about it, the main way of transmission is through the urethra, when is the urethra most open-cumming? Another tip. If a female has an std it is most present in her ejaculatory fluids so if possible I like to cum first and finish them off with my fingers (often the easiest way). Having said all this I am living very dangerously and agree with you about condoms, I also use a similar disinfectant technique though yours seems a bit overkill! Also very hard to screen std's besides obvious warnings. Most of them don't know they have them.
Ps I'm only a few months into the site, but I share a lot of your views and have made many similar discovers as you in the past (I've also learned a lot from you). This is the first time I've been way off from your views, when it comes down to the nitty gritty the majority of girls are sluts! A lot of this thread is wishful thinking on girls! Whatever helps you sleep at night. No one wants std's buttt even the "good girl" has the one exception night where he hooks up with good looking stranger who's fucked a 1000 girls. Whoever he's fucked you might being fucking as the saying goes so watch out! Excuse the poor grammar feeling lazy and just trying to get a point across. Chris If you weren't already wearing one, the majority of girls wouldn't insist more then once or twice to put a condom on. Truth
hey it looks like this was a video that I lost in the youtube incident.
in short- a lot of the girls I've slept with are popular, pretty, social status obsessed White girls in Hollywood - despite perception - these aren't the types that really have STDs. They are working on their careers, networking, etc. they aren't the type that are really that "easy" as people seem to think. Same is true for hot college girls - people seem to think that college girls all have 2 or 3 STDs and that they don't care if they catch HIV or something. It's not true at all. With all that said - I've always tried to practive safe sex and suggest that you guys do too.
Honestly man, I don't know what I was thinking not wearing condoms. I've had sex with under 20 girls but have only used a condom 2 or 3 times. It's not as pleasurable but I don't really care. It's a lot more pleasurable wearing a condom and not getting a girl pregnant than not wearing one and having to deal with all of the trouble that brings. Same goes for getting an STD. I will now always wear one with random pulls and even my f buddies.
Thanks for knocking sense into me
The vid's are lost.
Excellent info about the dermashield mousse. I was at my wits end as liquid bandages don't work well as they stiffen up and matt hairs Non sting liquid bandages are bloody expensive as well. I have used anti viral hand mousse (boots own brand uk) on my genital region which has a biocide. I was worried about it coming off with rubbing so may improve things by putting this on first then the dermashield then anti viral mousse.
Another rule of thumb, DO NOT have sex while you've been drinking, you tend to do stupid things that can make you not feel very proud of yourself the next day, it sucks having to worry for 6 weeks to hope you didn't catch something.
Awesome man! I appreciate it very much!! Seriously.
Keep it rockin
I didn't think the "Get Hung" guide would have girls eyeing my bulge. It did.
I didn't think that your exercise and diet advice would have girls checking me out. It did.
I DEFINITELY didn't think that your hair-loss prevention would fix my hairline. Not in a billion years. It mother fucking did. You saved me a crazy amount of time, a ton of money, unnecessary pain, and destroyed my #1 source of anxiety. DESTROYED IT.
Kratom is next!

Getting Here
You can drive, fly, or take the bus to get to Provincetown. And, from mid May until mid October you can take a passenger ferry from Boston.
Inn at The Moors
59 Provincelands Road
Provincetown, MA 02657
Driving from Boston to Provincetown (120 miles) takes about 2.5 hours unless you hit traffic getting out of Boston or get stuck in a bottleneck crossing the Cape Cod Canal. The absolute worst traffic comes on Friday evenings and Saturday afternoons on holiday and summer weekends. Otherwise, it's an easy ride on good roads and there are plenty of places to stop along the way for gas and food.
From Boston by Car
Take I-93 South to Route 3 South to the Sagamore Bridge and onto Cape Cod, where it becomes Route 6 East (aka the Mid-Cape Highway).
From New York, Connecticut, and Rhode Island by Car
Take I-95 North to I-195 North to Cape Cod over the Bourne Bridge to Route 6 East.
Once You've Reached Provincetown
Resist the temptation to turn into town. Be patient until you see the brown National Park sign for Province Lands; look for it on the right after about three miles. The road ahead bears left for 3/4 of a mile. At the intersection of route 6A, do not turn left; continue straight a short distance to find the "Inn at The Moors" on your left and the waterside on your right.
From Boston by Ferry
There are two competing services, the Bay State Cruise Co. and Boston Harbor Cruises that cost about the same price ($70 roundtrip for the fast ferry). The fast ferry only takes 90 minutes, but the slower ferry (only offered by Bay State Cruises) only costs about $33 round-trip. Once at Provincetown's MacMillan Wharf, you'll catch the shuttle bus or take a taxi to Inn at The Moors
From Boston by Bus
Plymouth and Brockton buses depart from South Station (Red Line). It's a nice ride but it takes about 3.5 hours and makes a lot of stops; approximate cost is $60 round-trip.
From Boston by Air
Cape Air (with 12-seater planes) from Logan International Airport costs about $200 round trip and takes about 20 minutes. Taxis from the airport cost about $5 per person.
Getting Around in Provincetown
It's easy because Provincetown is only three miles long. The summertime shuttle bus only costs $1 and you can flag it down anywhere on Bradford Street or at MacMillian Wharf. It goes right by our door and to Herring Cove Beach. For $4 per person you can take a taxi anywhere in town. Bicycling is also a popular means of transport and rentals are available nearby.
Leaving Cape Cod
Traffic is a nightmare after holiday weekends and on Sundays in July and August. Leave in the early morning or late afternoon to avoid back-ups at the bridges. Or better yet, stay an extra night.

The Queen was surprise guest at Manchester wedding
Uninvited guests are not normally welcome at weddings, but John and Frances Canning decided to make an exception when one turned up on their big day… because it was the Queen.
The royal wedding-chasher -- who had been attending a Diamond Jubilee event with the Lord Mayor at Manchester Town Hall -- decided to pop in and see the wedding which was taking place in the same venue.
When John and Frances had booked the venue, they didn't know the Royals (Prince Phillip was there too) would be there, but when they found out they wrote a letter to Buckingham Palace.
However, after the lady in waiting replied thanking him for the invitation and saying that unfortunately the Queen would not be able to attend, they didn't expect to see her.
So the duo were overjoyed when she popped in with Frances saying: "It was a bit scary but lovely.
"She was so nice and gracious. She was beautiful a really nice woman, and wished us all the best."
"She was so nice and gracious. She was beautiful a really nice woman, and wished us all the best."

June Yamashita
Department of Energy
Capitol Hill, Office of Senator Mark Hatfield (R-OR)
Hawaii – Mathematics
Her favorite memories of her Fellowship year include her crusade to persuade other Senate offices to support legislation to fund the Einstein Fellowship and unsuccessful efforts to get the bill onto the Senate floor. She also values being able to accompany Senator Hatfield to national meetings of education groups where she would introduce him before his keynote speeches and inform the audience of the Einstein Fellowship. She greatly values experiencing the incredible camaraderie among all staffers in a well-led Congressional office, and sharing the intense loyalty to the Senator and his legislative program. At the end of her Fellowship year, June joined the Senate Appropriations Staff and later became a meetings coordinator assistant for the American Bar Association Tax Session. She is now retired, happy to be grandma to two teenaged grandsons. She says, "I value my continuing friendship with the Senator, his legislative director, and some of his clerical staffers. Developing familiarity with the Capitol buildings, legislative processes and historical perspectives made the federal government come to life for me. I valued and admired the amazing efforts of the Triangle Coalition staff to help me make contacts and to advise me of alternative strategies to develop constituencies for the Senator's agenda, including but not limited to the Einstein program."

Two New Bern Alderman are competing in a runoff election for mayor and we gave the candidates one last chance to address their voters before they cast their ballots.
Leading up to the election, Dana Outlaw and Sabrina Bengel spoke and answered questions in three different forums in front of the people of New Bern.
Now It's crunch time and we asked them one last question Monday: What is the most important issue that New Bern is facing right now, and as mayor, how would you address it.
Outlaw says, "Econ 101 is a scarcity of money. It doesn't matter if it's Wall Street or the city of New Bern and we as a city need to make sure we have and can forecast the projected revenues what our expenses are going to be. And the most important thing probably is to make sure that the employees of New Bern feel comfortable that we're not going to go into their co-pays and we're not going to furlough in the future before we do other things that we can do with the same amount of money."
Bengel says, "The most important issue that I'd like to dwell on is the coming together of all neighborhoods and all the citizens . We are a fabulous community. We have so many great things going on but we have lots of challenges so the first thing I'd like to do when I become mayor is get out into the neighborhoods and talk to the citizens and get my list of what the priorities are. I know the aldermen are working in those neighborhoods and they know what their neighborhoods need, but we're going to bring it together. I want to bring together this community like you've never seen it before."
Both candidates seemed pretty confident when we spoke to them, while at the same time, relieved that campaigning is coming to an end.

With the exception of Kobe Bryant's three-game 40-point run — his middle finger to Father Time — Ricky Rubio going all "Pistolero" on the NBA and The Jeremy Lin Experience (Have you ever really been experienced?), this truncated NBA season hasn't provided a the range of exquisite flavors an 82-game season does.
As opposed to the grind of a full season (which I don't mind because it allows players, teams and story lines to develop), this lockout-truncated season has been more meat grinder. It has been more about what's missing. First, it was the league itself. Now, it's the players' health. By the end, it may be their sanity because squeezing 66 games into just under 130 days is plain crazy.
That's not to say there haven't been sublime NBA moments this season. Considering these are The Stinkface Chronicles, you'll note that I take note of those that have been above the rim. Here are the five I've enjoyed most so far.
DeAndre Jordan on Andrew Bynum and Pau Gasol, Dec. 19, 2011
This one happened during the preseason in December, which just goes to show you how weird this season has been. But this flush on the Lakers' formidable frontline not only provided a glimpse into the denizens of Lob City (ironic, though it was a bounce pass off a pick-and-roll) but also harkened back to another preseason perpetration of Staples-on-Staples crime and the first entry in The Stinkface Chronicles. The Clippers' bench — and Lakers haters — took great glee in this one, though Lakers' fans could counter that the Clips should have been whistled for a technical foul for having 12 men on the court after Jordan's flush.
4. Vince Carter on Emeka Okafor, Jan. 7, 2012
It's vintage Vince, the greatest in-game dunker in NBA history and it's beautiful. Also, that's the fastest Brendan Haywood has moved in quite some time, even with Delonte West riding shotgun.
3. Dwyane Wade on Landry Fields, Jan. 27, 2012
Wade shows Fields the ball, loops it around Fields' noggin and then slams said ball on said noggin'. Euro-steppin'.
2. LeBron James on/over John Lucas III, Jan. 29, 2012
Here's a little bit of trivia for you: who was the announcer when Vince Carter unleashed "Le Dunk du Morte"? On the US broadcast, it was Mike Breen, who had a similar reaction to Bron's dunk as Doug Collins' did to Vince's. Breen chuckles a little like Santa Claus — "Hohohoho" — as he should because these two dunks were the best gifts any dunk connoisseur could receive. (An aside, when I saw LeBron's slam, all I could think of was Collins' "he jumped over his heeeeaaad" commentary.)
1. Blake Griffin on Kendrick Perkins, Jan. 30, 2012
I rate this slightly ahead of LeBron's dunk because Lucas didn't see it coming while Perkins knew full well what he was getting into. Perkins' act of engagement (and aiding his rise by graciously providing his chest as a step stool) helped make this the dunk* of the season … thus far. So, we thank you, Kendrick.
As for Griffin's full-fledged assault on Perkins' puss, we can't call it the greatest dunk of all-time. That belongs to Vince in 2000. I'll also argue it doesn't belong in the Top 10* on two points: One, it had a precedent, specifically Griffin's throwdown on Timofey Mozgov in the 2010-11 season; and, two: neither were technically dunks as Griffin threw both into the rim instead of grabbing the rim. While I won't be too much of a Grinch to give the plays their due, I can't put either into the greatest of all time because of it. What follows is a list of my favorite all-time dunks in an NBA game. Make it yours, because, really, you can't go wrong when you reference them.
Amar'e Stoudemire on Michael Olowokandi
This dunk is the genesis of The Stinkface Chronicles. We thank thee, Amar'e and you as well, Starbury. Your expression speaks volumes. (For more Amar'e, check out a similar destruction of Anthony Tolliver.)
Dwyane Wade on Kendrick Perkins
Now, this is a dunk on Kendrick Perkins.
John Starks on Michael Jordan*
OK, it technically wasn't on Jordan, but he was in the picture and I just wanted to remind everyone about that.
Dominique Wilkins on Larry Bird
Bird looks like he was shot out of the sky.
Baron Davis on Andrei Kirilenko
Isn't it amazing what Baron Davis can do when he's in shape and interested?
Tom Chambers on Mark Jackson
This dunk has the Chris Webber seal of approval.
Shawn Kemp on the Knicks
While most people will give Kemp props for his destruction of Alton Lister, I prefer this one because of the degree of difficulty. A double-pump reverse on two defenders? Get the hell outta here /NewYorkvoice. (It's No. 3 in this compilation which includes classics such as Chris Gatling giving the Reignman his props and Kemp putting a knee into Bill Laimbeer's onions.)
Julius Erving on Michael Cooper
From the cradle to the crowd rising, like the crest of a wave, as Dr. J skims across the Spectrum floor to Chick Hearn's call of the cradle ("Way … he rocks the baby to sleep…") to Michael Cooper going into the fetal position to Beard Dude, everything about this is cool.
Vince Carter on Alonzo Mourning
Carter, the greatest in-game dunker in NBA history, (I need to trademark that), has more than his share of show-stoppers, but Carter goes chest-to-chest with Zo, one of the more feared shotblockers in NBA history, and destroys him. I had this saved on my DVR for more than two years. I wish I still had it.
Michael Jordan on Patrick Ewing
Oh, no, Jordan's trapped in the corner by two Knicks. Wait, no he isn't. But, oh no, there's no way he's going to the make it to the hoop. Ewing is there to block it … Never mind. A seven-foot obstacle is no impediment. After Jordan stares down Ewing, you can hear Cliff Livingston go, "Wooohoohoo!" as he mock sprints from the scene of the crime. Or, later in the highlight, Walt "Clyde" Frazier noted that Jordan was gyratin' and vibratin' and manages to get a Diet Pepsi commercial all in one comment.
This one play may encapsulate Michael Jordan's gifts better than any play in his career: the improvisation, the athleticism, the competitiveness. Of all the great dunks in Jordan's career, this one rises above the rest.

If you spend most of your day staring at a computer screen, you no doubt have suffered from an achy back, tension headaches, wrist pain or sluggishness. Banish stress and exhaustion with this simple trick from Ole. "To fight stress throughout the day, I get up from my workspace and stretch," says Ole. One of his favorite ways to relax can be done without getting out of your office chair.
Begin by sitting tall in your office chair. Close your eyes and take a deep inhale as you raise your arms up over your head so that your finger tips point towards the ceiling. As you exhale fold forward and touch your palms to the floor. Focus on constricting your stomach muscles while continuing to breathe steadily. Hold this position for a minute, then keeping your back flat, bring yourself to an upright position as you inhale and reach your fingertips towards the ceiling
It's also a good idea to have something green on your desk to bring the peaceful outdoors into your office. "Bamboo is a wonderful choice, because it's beautiful, sculptural, and grows in any kind of light, or lack thereof," he says. If the weather is nice, skip your afternoon coffee fix and take a walk outside your workplace for some fresh, energizing air. Sometimes nature is the best cure for workplace stress.

OK so I recently scouted out a possible spot not far from Enumclaw. There's a Sno-Park east of Greenwater on Hwy 410. Should be free of snow and people in the summer. Eastern and Southern vistas should be reasonable I am guessing. Anyone try out this spot?
I went a few days after Christmas and the place was thick with snow mobiles and the road was covered in ice. At least I found out it existed. A couple of my students suggested Greenwater as a possible location.
never spent much time down in that area. It may be worth a peek in warmer temps(when we seem to have better sky on this side )

Got a minute?
Got a minute?
Back on February 12 of this year in a post titled, "Loopholes, Lawyers and Obama's Executive Compensation Cap," I wrote that President Obama was considering an executive compensation cap of $500,000, at least for financial institutions that received Trouble Asset Relief Program (TARP) money. I wondered what the actual effects of the cap would be, especially with the workarounds of clever Wall Street lawyers, and I couldn't help but worry that a compensation cap might dampen efforts to rebuild these institutions.
Well, it turns out that all that worry wasn't necessary because no cap is coming – at least not for now.
Here are some of the details, according to another AP article, "Administration Seeks Ways to Tame Corporate Pay":
I was glad to hear Timothy Geithner quoted by the AP as saying, "We do not believe it's appropriate for the government to set caps in compensation." That's comforting. It's reasonable to try to influence corporations in a more cautious direction, but forcing them to comply with a specific compensation plan seems unrealistic and too invasive.
Hopefully, the era of "I win big or at least I don't lose anything" will end for American execs. That's not how life works for most everyone else and I think that "everyone else" is tired of paying to give a few people such a rare privilege.

Hey Everyone,
After upgrading my Ubuntu Dapper Drake 6.0.6 LTS server from 4.0.2 to 4.5.1 now I see the following in replied messages:
"Sent: Monday, February 12, 2007 8:41:01 AM (GMT-0600) America/Mexico_City"
Before the upgrade Zimbra would append "GMT-0600 US/Central" instead. Now, I realize the GMT offset is the same, but I would like the correct timezone nonetheless. The server's timezone is central time as it has always been, how do I fix the Zimbra timezone? Thanks.

7 Segment Displays
7 segment LEDs or 7 segment displays are a type of electronic display device used for displaying decimal numbers in place of the more complicated dot matrix displays. 7 segment LEDs are used in a number of applications such as electronic meters, digital clocks and other such electronic devices.
As the name suggests, these electronic components are made up from 7 segments that are used for displaying each of the numerals from 0 to 9. The segments are arranged in a rectangular pattern with two vertical segments placed on each side and a horizontal segment placed on top and bottom. In addition, another segment is placed bisecting the rectangle horizontally. This way, the figure obtained is of the number '8'. The segments are identified by lower case letters "a" to "g", that begin with "a" on the top and going clockwise, with the center segment being "g".
In some 7 segment LEDs, an additional segment is used to denote a decimal point and is referred to as DP. In some LEDs an extra triangle is also included to turn this decimal point in to a comma, which improves the readability of larger numbers. Most of the 7 segment displays are slanted to make the numbers look like they were written in italics. This allows for one digit to be placed upside down along with another digit, such that the two decimal points appear like a colon between the digits. This arrangement of these electronic component devices is widely used in digital clock displays.

To Laugh or to Cry? Daughter's Obituary for Dad Called 'Delightful,' 'Obit of the Year'Meredith Carroll
Laughter just doesn't seem appropriate on the occasion of someone's death. But Amanda Lewis' obituary of her dad Harry Stamps in the Sun Herald has elicited more than just a few giggles nonetheless.
Stamps died last week at the age of 80 and is described as his daughter as a ladies' man, natty dresser and a hater of cilantro (amen!). She describes in great detail precisely how he liked his bacon and tomato sandwiches and his regret at not seeing "his girl," Hillary Clinton, elected president.
He never lost a game of "competitive sickness" and had a life-long love affair with deviled eggs. He despised grape leaves, the word "veranda" and every variety of "Law and Order."
USA Today calls the obituary "delightful" and Slate.com named it the obit of the year, despite the fact that it's only March. It's hard to argue with either assessment after you read it in full:
Harry Weathersby Stamps
December 19, 1932 — March 9, 2013
Long Beach
Harry Weathersby Stamps, ladies' man, foodie, natty dresser, and accomplished traveler, died on Saturday, March 9, 2013.
Harry was locally sourcing his food years before chefs in California starting using cilantro and arugula (both of which he hated). For his signature bacon and tomato sandwich, he procured 100% all white Bunny Bread from Georgia, Blue Plate mayonnaise from New Orleans, Sauer's black pepper from Virginia, home grown tomatoes from outside Oxford, and Tennessee's Benton bacon from his bacon-of-the-month subscription. As a point of pride, he purported to remember every meal he had eaten in his 80 years of life.
The women in his life were numerous. He particularly fancied smart women. He loved his mom Wilma Hartzog (deceased), who with the help of her sisters and cousins in New Hebron reared Harry after his father Walter's death when Harry was 12. He worshipped his older sister Lynn Stamps Garner (deceased), a character in her own right, and her daughter Lynda Lightsey of Hattiesburg. He married his main squeeze Ann Moore, a home economics teacher, almost 50 years ago, with whom they had two girls Amanda Lewis of Dallas, and Alison of Starkville. He taught them to fish, to select a quality hammer, to love nature, and to just be thankful. He took great pride in stocking their tool boxes. One of his regrets was not seeing his girl, Hillary Clinton, elected President.
He had a life-long love affair with deviled eggs, Lane cakes, boiled peanuts, Vienna [Vi-e-na] sausages on saltines, his homemade canned fig preserves, pork chops, turnip greens, and buttermilk served in martini glasses garnished with cornbread.
He excelled at growing camellias, rebuilding houses after hurricanes, rocking, eradicating mole crickets from his front yard, composting pine needles, living within his means, outsmarting squirrels, never losing a game of competitive sickness, and reading any history book he could get his hands on. He loved to use his oversized "old man" remote control, which thankfully survived Hurricane Katrina, to flip between watching The Barefoot Contessa and anything on The History Channel. He took extreme pride in his two grandchildren Harper Lewis (8) and William Stamps Lewis (6) of Dallas for whom he would crow like a rooster on their phone calls. As a former government and sociology professor for Gulf Coast Community College, Harry was thoroughly interested in politics and religion and enjoyed watching politicians act like preachers and preachers act like politicians. He was fond of saying a phrase he coined "I am not running for political office or trying to get married" when he was "speaking the truth." He also took pride in his service during the Korean conflict, serving the rank of corporal–just like Napolean, as he would say.
Harry took fashion cues from no one. His signature every day look was all his: a plain pocketed T-shirt designed by the fashion house Fruit of the Loom, his black-label elastic waist shorts worn above the navel and sold exclusively at the Sam's on Highway 49, and a pair of old school Wallabees (who can even remember where he got those?) that were always paired with a grass-stained MSU baseball cap.
Harry traveled extensively. He only stayed in the finest quality AAA-rated campgrounds, his favorite being Indian Creek outside Cherokee, North Carolina. He always spent the extra money to upgrade to a creek view for his tent. Many years later he purchased a used pop-up camper for his family to travel in style, which spoiled his daughters for life.
He despised phonies, his 1969 Volvo (which he also loved), know-it-all Yankees, Southerners who used the words "veranda" and "porte cochere" to put on airs, eating grape leaves, Law and Order (all franchises), cats, and Martha Stewart. In reverse order. He particularly hated Day Light Saving Time, which he referred to as The Devil's Time. It is not lost on his family that he died the very day that he would have had to spring his clock forward. This can only be viewed as his final protest.
Because of his irrational fear that his family would throw him a golf-themed funeral despite his hatred for the sport, his family will hold a private, family only service free of any type of "theme." Visitation will be held at Bradford-O'Keefe Funeral Home, 15th Street, Gulfport on Monday, March 11, 2013 from 6-8 p.m.

I recently attempted to use selenium RC's GetAttribute method but immediately ran into a challenge. I tried to execute a very simple
selenium.GetAttribute("//a/@href") but the code threw a SeleniumException with the message "ERROR: Could not find element attribute: //a/@href".
By substituting
selenium.GetText("//a[@href]") in place of the GetAttribute call, I confirmed that an element was definitely present, as this statement properly returned the text of the link.
I then tried:
- pointing to a different web page with a different protocol (file:/// vs http://) -- same problem.
- using a different xpath locator pointing to a different attribute -- same problem.
- using a DOM locator
selenium.GetAttribute("document.getElementsByTagName('a')[0].getAttribute('href')")-- same problem; slightly different error message (and the error message is missing the final parenthesis): "ERROR: Element document.getElementsByTagName('a')[0].getAttribute('href' not found". Note that this exact expression works correctly in Firebug's console.
- using absolute instead of relative xpath addressing, with
selenium.GetText("xpath=/html/body/a[@href]")to confirm the existence and then
selenium.GetAttribute("xpath=/html/body/a/@href")to get the attribute -- and it worked!
While the manual clearly states that relative xpath locators do not need an explicit locator type (i.e. the "xpath=" prefix) it is silent about absolute xpath locators; I interpret from this that the prefix is required. But out of curiousity, I went back to my relative expression and added the explicit prefix--changing
selenium.GetAttribute("//a/@href") to
selenium.GetAttribute("xpath=//a/@href") -- and this also worked!
Finally, my experiments with the very handy Find button in Selenium IDE show that it does fine with elements but fails with attributes. I can understand that it is not meaningful to highlight an attribute since attributes are not visible page elements, but why not highlight the element containing the attribute, and make it in a different color? Perhaps not a trivial task...
My questions:
I distilled the results of the above experiments down to these questions; this is the whole purpose of my posting here! Each of these seems like a bug to me but let me know if you think my usage is incorrect or there is a workaround:
- Why does GetAttribute with an XPath locator type uniquely require an explicit locator type when other methods (e.g. GetText) do not?
- Why did the DOM locator fail with a 'not found' error? (The manual also clearly states that DOM locators do not require an explicit locator type prefix, but I nevertheless tried adding "dom=" as a prefix on the DOM test; it still failed.)
- Why does Selenium IDE not fail more gracefully when attempting to highlight (Find) an attribute? With the same
"xpath=//a/@href"locator, pressing the Find button yields this ugly message: "[error] locator not found: xpath=//a/@href, error = [Exception... "Could not convert JavaScript argument arg 0 [inIFlasher.scrollElementIntoView]" nsresult: "0x80570009 (NS_ERROR_XPC_BAD_CONVERT_JS)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://selenium-ide/content/selenium-runner.js :: showElement :: line 386" data: no]"
Your input is also requested for the following: The pattern I wanted for each test here was (A) GetText(locator-for-element-with-attribute) to confirm the presence of the element then (B) GetAttribute(locator-for-attribute-itself). Of the 6 slots in the table below I solved 3 of them successfully as just detailed, and a 4th seems to be a bug. Are there solutions for the remaining two slots?
Type GetText GetAttribute XPath //a[@href] xpath=//a/@href CSS css=a[href] ?? DOM ?? document.getElementsByTagName('a')[0].getAttribute('href')
(Details: Selenium RC version 1.0.3, Browser: Firefox 3.6.13, My target code in C#)

Writing is my third career. As a wife and mother of four sons, I did all the traditional things: driving my sons to baseball games and swimming meets, car pooling, acting as den mother, going to PTA meetings, until the family moved to Jerusalem for two and a half years while my husband, a biochemist, did research.
They say that you cannot go to Jerusalem without changing your life. The mystique of Jerusalem is overwhelming. It is the focal point of three major religions. Simple people who have never seen running water before walk along the same street as Nobel Prize winners. The dazzling architecture looks like a movie set and everyone seems to be dressed in costume. You can't dig in your garden or plant a daffodil without finding a bit of a Roman column, an ancient Judean bowl.
So when my family returned to the U.S., I went back to school to study anthropology and archaeology. After my husband died, with the help of fellowships from the Danforth Foundation and the National Science Foundation, I was able to receive a Ph.D. in archaeology/ anthropology.
I taught for twenty years in the Department of Anthropology at California State University, Fullerton. Many years of archaeological fieldwork took me all over the world, but especially to the Middle East, where I spent a year at the American School of Oriental Research in Jerusalem as an NEH scholar, and director of the overseas campus of California State Universities at the Hebrew University.
After I retired from Cal State, I taught a few classes in the extension at the University of California at Irvine, where they encourage instructors to take classes in other departments. I opted for writing classes in the extension, since Irvine has a distinguished writing program.
There, they told me to stop everything and start writing. They told me I had a voice, even though I can't sing a note. They told me to "Write what you know." And what did I know? I knew archaeology.
For the short story writing class, I wrote a short story, PETRIE'S HEAD which was published in a literary magazine called ZYZZYVA, and earned fifty dollars and a tee shirt. For the mystery class, I started a mystery, A FLY HAS A HUNDRED EYES, about an archaeologist, Lily Sampson who plunges into a labyrinth of intrigue and danger after the murder of the director of her excavation in British mandated Palestine in 1938. It won first place in the mystery category at both the Pikes Peak Writers conference and the SouthWest Writers Conference. It was subsequently published by Academy Chicago, and favorably reviewed in all the right places, including The New York Times.
My second novel in the Lily Sampson series, THE TORCH OF TANGIER, published by Poisoned Pen Press, takes place in Morocco during WWII when Lily is recruited into the OSS to work on the preparations for the Allied invasion of North Africa, Operation Torch. It, too, received favorable reviews in all the right places (but not, alas, The New York Times).
My third mystery, THE GOLD OF THRACE, came out in August 2007 from Poisoned Pen Press. It is a tale of danger and deceit in the antiquities trade.
When the first member of the staff of her Turkish excavation is murdered and a mosaic floor disappears overnight from her site, archaeologist Tamar Saticoy plunges into the shady world of the antiquities trade in her quest to discover who is responsible for the theft of artifacts from archaeological sites. She traces the mosaic floor to Switzerland, where she soon finds herself enmeshed in a tangle of deceit, theft, and forgery. Surrounded by fraud and jeopardy, she discovers that no one is who they seem to be. Two more members of her excavation staff are killed, and Tamar herself becomes the next target for murder.

Ok, whats the difference between a burner and a duplicator? looking at DVD burners and saw the other catagory too. Aren't they both the same application?
"You must try to generate happiness within yourself. If you aren't happy in one place, chances are you won't be happy anyplace." -- Ernie Banks
Duplicators are stand-alone products that can duplicate discs whereas the bruner refers to the drive-bay solution in your tower.

Usually a duplicator is a stand alone device, while a burner is something you either have to plug in externally or install inside your machine.

No injuries in helicopter crash landing at Fourchon
Published: Thursday, December 5, 2013 at 11:27 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, December 5, 2013 at 7:20 p.m.
No injuries were reported when a helicopter made a hard landing at Port Fourchon Thursday morning.
The chopper, which was headed offshore and operated by port tenant MYU Helicopters, failed in its takeoff from around 16th Street at the port and crash-landed a few hundred yards away, said Chett Chiasson, Greater Lafourche Port Commission executive director.
The chopper was in the process of taking off and was not more than 30 or 40 feet from the ground when it crashed, said Harbor Police Chief Jon Callais.
The helicopter landed near some housing trailers at the port, but none of the nine people on board were injured, and no buildings were damaged, Chiasson said.
There was a small fuel spill that Chiasson said was contained and being cleaned.
Chiasson said it's unclear exactly what caused the botched takeoff.
"They were very lucky, I can tell you that," Chiasson said.
