With the lengthy Park Cities YMCA debate over, University Park City Council now have another city controversy on their hands -- parks fees and regulations.
The city's parks and recreation staff have recommended new fees for private coaches, personal trainers and boot camp instructors who use public parks for their private businesses.They've also put forward a list of new rules for groups who reserve the park -- including a ban on amplified music and profanity.
Parks director Gerry Bradley says private instructors and boot camps can clog up the park and keep residents from using their tennis courts. Large group events, such as sports clinics, can also cause congestion and damage parks equipment, picnic tables and trees.
The proposal has launched a counter-movement of at least 500 people, who signed a petition titled "Keep Our Parks Awesome." Petition-signers argue the fees would ultimately be passed on to residents who already support the park through taxes.
If city council approves the proposal, here's a quick summary of what it would change:
-- Require resident permit to reserve tennis courts: To reserve a court, residents would have to register with the city for a permit. The permits would cost $40 for individuals and $10 for youth or seniors.
-- Fine no-shows who make tennis court reservations: Residents who reserve a court would have to show up or cancel at least 24 hours in advance -- or face a $25 fine.
-- Charge annual fee for private tennis instructors, personal trainers and boot camp leaders who use parks: They would be required to register with the city and pay a $1,000 annual permit to use public parks. They would not be allowed to reserve a tennis court, but residents can reserve a court for private lessons.
-- Add rules for boot camps: Groups who use the park would be capped at 15 people. At least 51 percent of participants would have to be University Park residents. The clinic or boot camp would be required to give a roster to city officials. Use of playground equipment, fences, picnic tables, benches would be prohibited. Amplified music, bullhorns and profanity would also be banned.
-- Charge fees for sports clinics: All sports clinics would have to enroll at least 51 percent University Park residents to reserve park space. They would pay a reservation fee of $100 for a half day clinic, $200 for a day-long clinic or $800 for a week-long clinic.
-- Ban food and merchandise sales: No commercial businesses, including food trucks and ice cream vendors, would be allowed to sell food or merchandise in public parks. City council may allow it in certain circumstances.
City council will tackle the proposal at a special meeting on Tuesday at 3 p.m. Council members postponed action at the May 7th council meeting, after several citizens spoke in opposition.

Mon, 11 Nov 2013 02:40:00 GMT —
Veterans Day is approaching and the Knights of Columbus are working to honor America's guardians of freedom.

The monument honors all uniformed service members and is part of the Knights of Columbus' tradition.
The dedication service including retired service men and women and civilians.
"It's not a sense of gratification we get from doing this its almost like a duty to those who so much sacrificed for what we have here in America today," said George Walrath, Knights of Columbus.
The monument is located in the back of the Great Lakes National Cemetery grounds.

The bicyclist struck and killed by a car in Lake Elsinore about
8 p.m. Friday has been identified as a 13-year-old Lake Elsinore
boy, the Riverside County coroner said Saturday in a news
The child, identified as Kayel Smith, was hit on Riverside Drive
a half mile west of Collier Avenue at 7:58 p.m. and died of a major
head injury at 8:10 p.m., authorities said.
The Riverside County Sheriff's Department said in a news release
that the bicyclist was riding westbound on the south shoulder of
the road, the eastbound side, and tried to cross the road when he
was struck by the car.
The driver was cooperating with investigating officers, the
Sheriff's Department said.
Although authorities didn't say whether Kayel was wearing a
helmet or whether his bike had lights, Lake Elsinore police
encourage all bicyclists to wear a helmet that fits properly.
After sunset, bicyclists should have a flashing red light that
faces back and a forward-facing white light on their bikes.

Feed ramp jam

Again, I think we all know people who can indulge in the S.A.D. and still look like the Statue of David. But for the average person, the healthier choice they can make is the paleo/Primal diet (although U.S. News & World Report obviously disagrees, declaring paleo the "worst" diet. Ya know, good "consensus science".) Similarly, some people can consume porn and somehow not be subject of that whole "neurons that fire together wire together" truism.
I knew a woman who consumed a lot of porn with her "toys" and....well....to quote Jimmy Kimmel, "Her vagina played the role of the Batcave in 'Batman Begins'." But I know that something like 90% of porn is consumed by men, so that's a tiny minority.

Giedo van der Garde cites Pablo Sanchez for blame after losing victory at Silverstone.
- Home
- MotoGP
- Championships
- Forums
- CrashTV
- Live
Runaway World Series by Renault championship leader Giedo van der Garde believes traffic cost him the opportunity to score a fourth win in seven races at Silverstone.
Starting the second race of the weekend from the front row of the grid, the Dutchman got a strong start to take a comfortable lead into the opening laps before making his one and only pit-stop on lap ten.
However, while he continued to hold an advantage over second place driver Salvador Duran who pitted at the same time, van der Garde became bottled up behind lapped driver Pablo Sanchez for three laps, costing him time.
It was significant enough for Robert Wickens, who was third in the early stages, to make the most of clear air and pull out a gap big enough to see him pit and return just in front.
Indeed, van der Garde was frustrated to settle for second, speculating that Sanchez's adversity to let him overtake was motivated by his desire for Interwetten Racing team-mate Duran to catch up again.
"For sure it cost me the win," he told Crash.net Radio after the race. "Sanchez cost me three seconds because I was behind him for three laps and he wouldn't let me pass. I don't know why, maybe because he is Salvador's team-mate, It made all the difference."
Despite that, van der Garde still comes away from the weekend with an even larger 44 point advantage over second place, now occupied by Duran. As the only driver to finish all seven races in the points this season, van der Garde admits that he is already looking to protect his lead in the coming rounds.
"It is always important to finish the first race and try and win the second race. Hungary is now coming up and I think we will be strong there."

(slackware) install options
hello! i never installed linux and i dont know how it works, my friend did it for me, im not talking about making partitions, im talking about install options, for example like in microsoft windows, the things you can choose to install or not. my friend installed kde, and i dont like it, i have so much software that i dont use, why the hell do i have four web browsers?
for what i know the window manager brings lots of software (i think you call it a "desktop" like kde or gnome)... i want to use the simplest windows manager wich i can choose when i install slackware, someone told me about tmw xwinman.org/vtwm.html i like the screenshots... i select that in the slackware installation... is it a good option?
what about the software, does the installation allow me to choose what i want to install or is the window manager that i select that does that?
sorry if you dont understand my question... all i want to do is install slackware with the minimal things i need, i just want to be able so start x and have a internet browser and a file manager that will let me install things.
i will have to download the last version of slackware, 9.1... i can select to install twm, right?
Your best bet is to install everything on the first Slackware disk and then begin to remove stuff that you don't use. TWM is included in the default install and while it is certainly minimal, you'll probably find it's missing too much functionality to be of much use. Check out Fluxbox (which is also in the default Slackware install) or FVWM95 (default install again). Both are simple and are more useful than TWM. During the installation you can select what you want to install: just go with newbie mode so you can read about most of the packages. Finally, welcome to Slack. :)
just to add, to remove any packages you don't want or need you'll use pkgtool as root from a terminal. i'd also like to second Nis, welcome to slack.
Slack installs multiple window managers because different Slackers have different preferences. To easily switch from one to another, just run this from the command line: /usr/X11R6/bin/xwmconfig -- J.W.
Re: (slackware) install options
go here and read up..........gnashley is an LQ Member, so you can thank him for his efforts........
i think i will try to install that version, but i have some questions:
i have two drive's, the big one (d: in microsoft windows) is 300 gigabytes fat32 and has no opperating system, i use it to store all data, then i have my first hard drive (c: in microsoft windows) wich has three partitions, the fat32 for microsoft windows 98, and then the other three wich slackware needs to have, in ext2 i think, i use lilo to boot.
i heard about zipslack wich is a small installer, would be nice for what i want, right? and it installs in a fat32 partition right? but... linux always needs those three partitions for what i know, swap, the root and... ... boot!?
anyway is there any problem installing linux in a fat32 partition? that way i could access the linux drive when im ussing microsoft windows. if that is possible, what boot loader would i use?
sorry im confussed...
about http://home.earthlink.net/~gnashley/...ix8_1howto.htm
i have two ethernet cards, one of them connects to a cable internet connection and the other connects to another computer (wich has netbios enabled over ipx and thats what i use in microsoft windows 98 to trade files and work in network) what packages do i need, to have a internet connection and later i would also like to access the netbios folders in the other computer (if that is possible, in ipx) "Internet Tools and Protocols
"This group includes: inetd, openssl-solibs, pidentd, ppp, tcpip and wget. If you plan to go on the Internet or communicate over a LAN using ppp, then as a bare minimum you will need 'inetd', 'ppp' and 'tcpip'. You may need 'pidentd' and 'openssl-solibs' in order for your ISP to authenticate your connection. 'wget' is a download utility. Some GUI download utilities are just a 'front-end' to 'wget', so you may need this. I haven't yet confirmed if Opera uses it so I include it. 'curl' is another very useful 'downloader' library with advanced functions."
sorry im confussed, i hope you understand my questions, i dont know what version to download, the zipslack? (refering to my first question here)
and also, i will need someone to tell me wich kernel to use and how to update it (or should i just use the stable version of the last slackware version?)
do you at least understand my questions?

Big Story
Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'College Football' started by Edge672, Oct 11, 2012.
Obligatory Nu Metal:
Arizona State is a 23 point favorite
Seriously, when doing the schedule, did anyone really think Colorado would provide for compelling tv? I can say right now I might not even tune in with MLB playoffs on.
No idea man. It makes me happy since I only get to see 4-5 of their games a year.
Colorado GT with nu-metal.....I'll allow it.
I think my liver and Colorado are going to lose this one
If there was ever a GT that needed some nu metal, this is it.
Looks like predicted blowouts for both football options tonight.
One upside for me is that CU will probably wear these uniforms.
I don't think LP has ever released a NuMetal album. Not that I've heard anything past their second album. System of a Down, Limp Bizkit or Disturbed (post debut album) for that matter as well. People just slap NuMetal on anything from the late 90s with at least quasi heavy guitars in it.
From my Galaxy SIII using Tapatalk 2
Hybrid Theory is definitely nu-metal lol.....wait Limp Bizkit not nu-metal?
You absolutely can not have anywhere near even half the amount of rap that is in 'Hybrid Theory' & it be NuMetal. Somehow the definition of NM became bastardized to include Rapcore like Limp Bizkit.
Disturbed's first album, KoRn's first 3 albums, Flymore & pretty much everything I've heard from StainD are actual NM. I've never heard any from Biz Limpkit, SOAD, or LP.
From my Galaxy SIII using Tapatalk 2
Actually I remember hearing a single track by LB that was not typical of them. "The Unquestionable Truth Part I" I think. Sounded very RATM inspired actually. It wasn't Rapcore but I don't remember it well enough to say If it was NM, AM, Hard Rock or what.
From my Galaxy SIII using Tapatalk 2
^That song had promise until Durst started singing, IMO.
If you subtract Durst & insert any other frontman they're suddenly exponentially better. He's the absolute worst I can think of. Rob Zombie is horrible as well.
From my Galaxy SIII using Tapatalk 2
You guys just can't handle Fred Durst's nookie.
Edge's liver has the slight...edge.
It can likely also score on the Buffs defense.
I think I'll be able to start my paper for class by halftime.
Colorado has played 2 Thursday night games on ESPN and won both.
I might start really early pregaming for this here soon.
After I get dragged to the gym again, I will be joining the pregame party
Ah yes, to the WKU thread!
Edge icon bet?
I was trying to be nice.....but yeah.....
The bet should be if they lose is that he gets to keep his icon but if they win somehow he has to wear a colorado icon.
and by they i mean colorado
I would go for that.
I cannot wait for football now. Fuck yes Giants!
No one is beating the Yankees so it doesn't matter.
Probably not. It's still troll championship season.
So the lynx will win the wnba chip this year
Hey now, the Lynx have my favorite WNBA player on them. Also one of the few players who I actually know what team they would be on in the WNBA.
Wait they're actually playing for the chip?
Ya, they beat the Sparks I am pretty sure. The Sparks are the ones who would be the fucking troll team. Their two best players just happened to get pregnant the year Candace Parker was in the draft.
Supposedly tanking in the WNBA is a pretty big problem.
EDIT: Phoenix did it this year in an attempt to get in position to draft Griner next year.
How dare you accuse my team of tanking to get some guy at number one!
You guys just got me looking at wiki pages for the wnba draft....fuck you guys.
Your best player didn't play all season (supposedly), yet was perfectly fine to compete in London. Um ya.
Get out of here with that WNBA ****.
Someone is angry that the Orlando Miracle relocated.
This is now a drunj thread. WNBA happens.
Note: WNBA is used as a synonym of crap in this case.
I guess you could say it put me into an
brb gonna take a WNBA
Don't hate on Diana. She's a goddess.
Lol sure, why not?
My friends want to go to BWW to watch the games so I'm sorry if I dont post all that much
It says a lot to go root for Colorado football in public

The Aikiou Junior is a wonderful puzzle and dish designed for all dog breeds. It slows down dogs that eat to fast thereby preventing digestive problems and providing an entertaining experience for your dog when filled with treats or cut up veggies or fruit. The Aikiou Junior also includes openings to insert treats which block the rotation of the wheel, making the fun last enen longer.
* Made from durable food grade plastic.
* Holds up to 2 cups of wet/dry food or treats.
* Anti-slip base.
* Measures 11" in diameter.
Available in 3 Color Combinations:
- Green & Brown
- Pink & Brown
- Blue & Brown
About Aikiou:
In nature, animals are forced to devote a large part of their days to hunting and foraging for their meals. Dogs in particular are adept at searching and snooping for their food. Their innate problem solving ability is often under exercised in domesticated life, and for some dogs, leads to unwanted behaviors around the home.
With this in mind, the Aikiou (IQ) bowl was developed. Food is hidden inside the bowls many compartments and is accessed by your dog as he or she spins the central wheel. Allowing your dog to exercise his or her problem solving instincts with the Aikiou bowl will be fun and rewarding for both you and your pet, and may deter unwanted behaviors such as unwanted chewing or the digging of holes in your back yard.

He is reported to have trotted onto Yale Field in New Haven, Connecticut when a bunch of soldiers were drilling in preparation for the War. He may, in fact, have been a plant -- a companion dog brought by Corporal Robert Conroy, with whom he quickly became fast friends.
When the troops shipped out, Stubby was hidden on board by Conroy and went to France with the rest of the boys. At Chemin des Dames the soldiers noticed that the artillery fire didn't faze Stubby, but they taught the dog to duck down just the same. In a very little while they noticed the dog ducking before they did -- it turned out that the dog could hear the shells coming long before the men!
One dark night in the trenches, Stubby woke up while the men were sleeping, crept down the trench line and around a corner and found a German spy prowling the trenches in the dark. The soldier let out a howl when the dog bit him hard in the back thigh, and the dog did not let go even after the soldier had been disarmed by Stubby's friends -- they had to pry his jaws off the enemy soldier.
After this bit of service Stubby became famous, and honors were heaped on him by soldiers looking for a bit of humor and story to alleviate the boredom and carnage of trench warfare. At Mandres en Bassigny, Stubby was introduced to President Woodrow Wilson who "shook hands" with him. Stubby received a wound stripe for a grenade splinter he received, and the Marines even made him an honorary Sargent.
After the Armistice was signed, Stubby returned home with Conroy and his popularity seemed to grow. He became a nationally acclaimed hero, and eventually was received by presidents Harding and Coolidge. General John "Black Jack" Pershing, who commanded the American Expeditionary Forces during the war, presented Stubby with a gold medal made by the Humane Society and declared him to be a "hero of the highest caliber." Stubby toured the country leading war parades, and was made an honorary member of the American Red Cross and the American Legion. The YMCA issued him a lifetime membership card good for "three bones a day and a place to sleep."
In 1921, Robert Conroy headed to Georgetown law school and took Stubby along with him.
While at Georgetown Stubby served several terms as mascot to the football team where, between the halves, Stubby would nudge a football around the field, much to the delight of the crowd. Stubby was Georgetown's first canine mascot, and it is his ugly countenance that has somehow been morphed into the English Bulldog emblem of the Hoyas.
Old age finally caught up with Stubby on April 4th, 1926, and he died in Conroy's arms.
Stubby's stuffed body is one of the many artifacts kept by the Smithsonian museum in their vast collection.

This Is The True Sex Story Of One Of My Friends Who Happens To Be Local MLA's Wife ....... I Have Changed Names Just To Keep Secrecy Intact........
Akanksha was beautiful; infact she stood out in a crowd and you could not help but notice her. She was a slim, vivacious, with a ringing laugh, and her long hair hung down her slender back crowning her like a golden halo. She also dressed to perfection, her dresses seemed to cling to her shapely form and accentuate her wonderful figure. You would not know her age until you got close and noticed the slightest crinkles at the corners of her sparkling eyes. She walked with an exuberant lively swing-- poetry in motion--which made her stand out in the crowd. Akanksha was not only beautiful she was clever and talented with fluent speech and a quick wit. Her personality was magnetic, men admired and desired her, and women wished they were like her.
She was married to the Local MLA and had two school aged children. They had been in their present encumbrance five years and were spinning merrily along with a thriving congregation in middle class Delhi. Akanksha fitted into all the Temple activities and was a great organizer, she was the perfect ministers wife, a real helpmate who adored her husband. There were womens groups, religious study groups and a youth group to provide help and entertainment for the teenagers in the community. Akanksha helped with everything, and when the young couple who ran the youth group were away she would take it over for a couple of friday evenings.
Now Akanksha was used to handling pushy men who often tried it on with her. If they were married she would reprimand them and tell them it was no way for a married man to behave, and if they were single she would politely remind them that she was a married woman herself. Naturally the men noticed her and when she read the lesson they would be admiring her figure and paying little or no attention to the reading. The sex instinct is far stronger than the religious veneer that merely coats the character, or the gold band that surrounds a finger, it can wreck marriages, destroy lives and is not to be handled lightly.
The youth group was really just a meeting place in the Temple hall where there was a table some music with langar and coffee available. It was confined mainly to those whose parents attended the Temple but friends were sometimes brought in from time to time, but to gain entry you had to have membership or be invited by a member. Members also had to be over sixteen and under twenty five but the place was monitored by at least one adult who was incharge and kept an eye on what went on. The hall opened at 7pm and closed at 10pm.
It was a hot sultry friday evening in July and Akanksha was incharge, she enjoyed chatting to the younger people and kept all the doors and windows open to let in the night air. The music rolled out into the night with the billows of young laughter. Akanksha noticed a new youngman who had just entered with a girl whose mother she knew well. She looked twice at the newcomer she felt sure she had seen him somewhere before. He was a tall dark longlimbed boy very handsome and well dressed, who moved with an easy cat like exuberance as if he walked on springs; he flashed a white toothed smile at Akanksha holding her gaze with passionate eyes.
"This is Pankaj," said his female companion smiling," he has just moved in next door to us."
Pankaj seemed to linger as he held Akankshas outstreched hand and she felt a sort of electricity flow between them: again Akanksha felt as if she knew the boy, but from where and when she trawled her memory with no definite result. When these evenings finished it the hall had to cleared and tidied, and whoever was in-charge had the job of supervising the clear up and locking up for the night. Lots of the youth quickly went off and a few dedicated thoughtful ones were left to finish off.
Everyone had left and Akanksha was just locking the kitchen when she looked around to see Pankaj standing close behind her. She felt herself stiffen Pankaj smiled and slowly came nearer to her,"Your very beautiful Mrs Akanksha please don"t be nervous I just wanted to tell you how lovely you are," and he slipped his arm around her waist pulling her gently towards him, he kissed her passionately on the lips. This was the first time Akanksha had ever responded willingly to such advances since she was a 19year old girl and the memories of that first love affair came flooding back.
Akanksha aged nineteen and very attractive she had met a man who she did not know was married. He was an experienced and forward lover who often cheated on his wife and he had two young children. Infact the man was a heartless romeo and he took advantage of a young girl who was longing for love and fullfillment. This man took her virginity and promised to marry her, she absolutely believed him and was head over heels in love with him. After a while she began to realise something was wrong and she followed him home one dreadful night after a loving tryst and discovered he had a wife and family. Akanksha was devastated: the tears flowed copiously but she did not give him up she hoped he would divorce his wife and marry her. Love often makes us stupid and always blinds us to a true assessment of the love object, but love lives in hope and believes in reform.
When Pankaj kissed her it was as if she was thrown back in an instant into the world of passion and she did not resist athough she knew she should push him away. His strong arms held her as she drank from her lips and he placed his open hands on her bottom pulling her hips into his own thrusting his aroused manhood towards her womanhood.
Now he was kissing her neck and she could feel his hot breath as his hands made towards her fine breasts kneading them whispering," You adorable creature your so lovely I must have you I need you I want every bit of your body."Akanksha could feel herself responding as she never had done for twenty years and she could not stop. Pankaj was working his way down her body he was obsessed with this beautiful mature woman and he wanted to pleasure her with his tongue. He was soon under her skirt and she was raptured as he planted kiss after kiss on her thighs and upper legs she had not know such passion for years and it sent thrills through her body like pulses of electricity.
It was too late now for her to resist she was absorbed in the act and allowed her body to be enjoyed by this sexy young male who was also taken up in the suddenness of the act. They were engulfed in each other, the outside world was eclipsed, only the coming storm mattered now. Akanksha"s fluids flowed profusely and Pankaj drank them like nectar, her soft wetness became his world down there as he felt her rising climaxes ebb and flow.
|Have you seen the announcement yet?
His cock was like a rock and throbbed in his trousers then he heard her moan and say," Give it me I need to be filled please fill me darling fill me."He felt it slide into her as her well prepared sheath drew him in up to the hilt. He paused with his full length locked in her grasping Cunt he could feel himself throbbing inside her no need to move, the joy of being there fully inserted and wrapped in her Vagina was enough, he needed to savour the sensation, and her legs wrapped around his back held him and she moaned a long low song that wavered almost cat like in its intensity. Pankaj had no need of friction he knew that when she was ready she would rock the boat and then and only then would he discharge the complete contents of his brimful sack. He drew her face up towards his and locked his lips and tongue onto hers. They were connected inseparable and the final crisis hit them tearing at their senses, fusing there identities into one being in that supreme moment when time stops and cares are lifted, and nothing else matters.
Afterwards came the guilt and sorrow and Akankshas vow to herself never to do it again. The great trouble with convention is that it gets in the way of enjoyment, as it tries to dictate our behavior. It hardly ever succeeds, the heart always puts pleasure first and so it did with Akanksha, a MLA wife, yet she continued to consort with this youth from the Temple club. It came as a shock when she learnt his name and realized he was the son of the same married man who had led her such a dance before she married.
She knew then "Like father like son" and she knew why she had given in to this womanizer. What would become of her? she dreaded discovery but loved every passionate session more and more, and as he pressed his advantage he lusted more an more after this gorgeous woman. Pankaj like many young men seemed to get a thrill out of the fact that Akanksha was an older married woman, but he new he must be careful and he picked his moments. Everytime he saw her his loins leapt and his young dark eyes gleamed with passionate lustful pleasure for he knew that wonderful body he had conquered it and possessed it, and adored it.
As is usual with these things fate took another twist and the situation was charged with the danger of discovery. Akanksha knew she had no excuse, if all was revealed she would be to blame and the fingers would point and judge her as a shameless hussy. Pankaj had taken to visiting the Temple on monday mornings after the children were at school and MLA was attending to Constituency duties. So as not to be seen he would slip into the back door through the garden and when he had satisfied himself slip out the same way.
Now his older brother Manan had become suspicious and knew that something was going on; the suspicion had turned into determination to find out what Pankaj was up to, so he followed him on this particular monday. Seeing him slip into the garden made Manan very curious and throwing caution to the wind he followed his brother and saw him enter the downstairs back kitchen.
Manan was puzzled and he waited behind the garden shed to see if Pankaj would come out. After awhile he knew he must be up to no good so he crept into the kitchen; all was silent the ground floor seemed to be totally empty. Manan went to the bottom of the stairs and then he thought he heard noises coming from one of the rooms. He ascended slowly his ears pricked, a door in the passage was ajar and he could now clearly hear a rocking sound and gentle low moans. Carefully like a stealthy cat he crept along and peeped through the door. Akanksha was on the bed her rump in the air and mounted on her was Pankaj. Manan watched in shock as his brother who was stark naked slowly sunk his cock into that mature pussy gripping her shoulders and clearly absorbed in fucking the MLAs wife. She for her part appeared to be enjoying every minute and he heard her say,"Oh yes please deeper."
Now the immediate effect of this unexpected discovery on Manan was sexual arousal. His penis stood to attention like a sentry and he was jealous of his younger brothers luck. He had seen Mrs Akanksha and had mentally fucked her many times but like others believed she was a strait-laced MLAs wife and would not respond favorably to an approach. Manan quietly removed his trousers and watching the pair he held his throbbing rod longing for his opportunity to mount that lovely woman and empty his aching balls.The lovers were too wrapped in there own enjoyment to notice him and the naked couple continued to work towards completion.
"I just love fucking that cunt of yours you sexy bitch I"m goint to fill you right up with my hot spunk," and he plunged into her again as Manan watched cock in hand ogling the wonderful sight.
"Ohhhhh,"" she cried in ecstasy and the storm burst as Pankaj clung to her spamming his jets into her buried to the hilt of his cock ejaculating jet after jet of white seed into her vagina. Manan dashed to the bed now stark naked and pulling his exhausted brother off mounted and entered before Akanksha or Pankaj knew what had happened. Pankaj was too shocked to speak as his rampant brother plunged his cock home like a maniac Akanksha just groaned as she felt the fresh hard long cock penetrate and she soon found herself rising again to have a further orgasm.
Thus it was that the two randy young brothers began to enjoy threesomes with the local MLAs wife each stimulating the other to fresh debauchery between them they began to use her when ever the opportunity arose and she enjoyed the attention of these two dirty fuckers. Akanksha knew it could not go on how could she be the dutiful MLAs wife prim and proper, looked up to by all the Temple community and at the same time enjoy such filthy sessions with two young men. She kept saying to herself she must stop, but as you know active sexual enjoyment is not easy to lay aside, after all she had never known such orgasms and she was shocked at her own depravity.

I was 15 years old the summer that this story takes place. My best friend was away at NCC camp, and I was one lonely girl.
But I had my cousin, and his family's pool. Kamal and I used to have a lot of fun in the pool. We used to wrestle --- that is, we did, until we started to mature. That hot summer day he brought out some iced tea for me, and for some reason made a pig point of telling me that his folks were both at work that day.
It was around noon, and soon we would have something for lunch, and then sit around and watch a couple of Movies, just like we always did. He stood over me as I lay on the chaise, leaning forward to sip my tea. As I looked up, my face was right in his crotch. He was wearing one of those little bikini-bottom types of things, and I could clearly see the outline of the head of his cock.
It Seemed to take his balls and bunch them together, leaving a pretty clear outline of his dick. I had never actually noticed before how big my cousin Kamal was. I sipped my tea, staring at the close-up dick show in front of me. Slowly, I looked up at his face.
He was looking down at me. I averted my gaze, and looked back at his dick. I could see that it was bigger now, and suddenly, it jerked. I could tell he was trying to make it move.
And he was getting a hard-on. I took a deep breath and Exhaled, and I could see the little hairs around his navel flutter from my breath as I breathed out, I was that close to him. "Oh, that felt good," he said. "Yeah?" I said with a somewhat choked voice. I decided to take a chance, just to see what he would say. "How do you make it move like that?" I asked. "Muscle control," he said with a laugh. "I can do all kinds of things with it." Suddenly, the bulge expanded again and again.
He now had a full-on erection, and the head of it was completely visible under the thin material. "I bet you can," I said. My voice sounded far away to me, like I was talking in a tunnel, my ears were ringing. He just stood there, his dick moving just under the surface of the thin material covering it, inches away from my lips. "Can you make it dance?" I asked with a smile, trying to look unconcerned. He nodded. I could plainly see the shape of the bulbous head of it, separate from the swollen shaft now.
Maybe the fabric emphasized it, and made it just so big. "You wanna see it dance?" he asked. I swallowed. Slowly, my face turned red, but I nodded. "It can't really do it under my trunks. You'll have to pull them down, you know?" I stared at him for a moment, then with shaking hands, very nervously, I reached up and hooked my thumbs in the elastic band of his trunks and pulled them down slowly.
My eyes were greeted first by a little thicket of black, curly hair. Then, I could see the base of his cock as its head was thrust forward, towards me, by the release of the material. Then, it broke free from the fabric, and shot straight up in the air and audibly slapped against his stomach. I couldn't keep my eyes off the pink head!
It was shaped like a mushroom, almost, and it throbbed like a heartbeat. It was flared at the bottom and looked sort of like a helmet. It was split into two parts, sort of, with a big line dividing the head, right up to the little hole at the top of it. His balls were pink and nearly hairless, full of wrinkles and veins. I could see his two orbs inside, weighting down the skin. I watched in amazement as they slowly tightened, probably because of the cooler air outside his trunks.
Then, they moved! He could move his balls, too! They moved up, and then down again. I couldn't believe it!
Then he made his cock dance. It got larger, and then a little smaller, dropping down a little, pointing at me. Then, it swung back up into the air again, bouncing. I leaned toward it, looking more closely at it.
I reached out and touched the very tip of it, where a little drop of crystal clear fluid rested on the tip over the tiny crack in the end. "You can play with it, if you like," he said.
I was so curious now that I almost forgot to be nervous and reached up and wrapped my fingers around it, feeling it throb beneath my touch.
It was warmand hard, yet the skin was so soft and smooth.

|1 and 2 link pretty easily. It's counter-intuitive, but clip the anchor with a short runner as you go by. It doesn't really add to the drag, but positions the rope well for the second pitch.

With ten pounds of paddlefish to smoke, I was quickly running out of options. The Sportsman's Cannery in Emeryville closed long ago. The phone at Scandinavian Smokehouse in San Francisco has been disconnected. Red River Smoke House in Princeton-by-the-sea is no longer, although Blue Ocean may take its place. Which left Creekside Smokehouse in El Granada by Half Moon Bay.
Located next to a small creek with an inviting lawn, the smokehouse is run by Dave and Teri, who are extremely friendly and knowledgeable. In addition to custom smoking, they offer a variety of items. Cold smoked salmon is their most popular product. A sample of their "rich jerky strips", made from boneless rib-meat that was brined and then cured with brown sugar, was decadently rich, and dripped with salmon oil. Teri called it "velvet fog" and Dave suggested dipping it in chocolate. As much as I enjoyed the jerky, I'm not sure I would enjoy that combination.
Besides salmon, they also offer sturgeon, yellowfin tuna, halibut, and albacore—Teri's favorite, since she enjoys its meaty texture. Their sturgeon is another meaty choice. Teri said that smoked sturgeon is a favorite of their Russian customers. Another favorite is their crab dip, which is available only during the holidays. Nothing smoked, just quality ingredients highlighted by Dungeness crab. I can't wait to try it. They also sell smoked trout and eel, but these are processed elsewhere. Flat bread and crackers are also available.
Besides seafood, they smoke a variety of dairy products, including cheese and butter. The butter is a new product, and I tried two varieties. One was intensely smokey, and would be perfect to finish a sauce or a dish. The other was milder, and could be used more liberally. Both were unique and delicious. I sampled a number of the cheeses, and decided on the Parmesan (DiGiorno). I grated the cheese over a plate of spaghetti, and enriched with a tab of smoked butter, the combination was simple and terrific.
The paddlefish, both cold and hot-smoked, was amazing. Alongside a Greek salad, Irish brown bread, Russian-style sour cream, and a glass of kvas, the fish was the star of a satisfying, multicultural meal. It's good to live in the Richmond District.

I created a parent image gallery that will eventually contain dozens of child image galleries. Each one of the child image galleries will contain hundreds of pictures.
I am trying to find an easy way to post the child image galleries that are under the parent as a list. I cannot see that as an option in the image gallery widget or content area. I have also thought of posting each image gallery to its own blog post, then I could use the blog widget to show the list of blogs. Each blog post would contain all of the images on the specific child gallery. I found a forum post on how to do that, but several users said it didn't work.
Can anyone help me out? From the size of the galleries, I do not want to see hundreds of thumbnails on the first page.
For an end result, I'm looking to see a list of hyperlinks to each gallery from a content block. I'd like it to look exactly they way a list of blog entries looks using the blog widget, list view.
Thank you.

Excellent hostel that felt safe and welcoming. The beautiful Spanish girl on reception is wonderfully kind and helpful and made a great impression on us. Room was small and cosy. Breakfast ( which is included ) is outstanding. The location, just 200 metres from the underground, is ideal. I would certainly stay here again.

A wonderful place with exceptionally helpful and friendly staff situated on a very quiet street at the end of the long Mariahilfer Str. Well worth the uphill walk, and a perfect place to walk to the beautiful Schonbrunn palace. Couldnt recommend this place more.

It's looking a lot improved to me... There are still numerous places where it needs s/Slony/Slony-I/g because there is more than one thing out there called "Slony," only one of which is the single-master-to-multiple-subscribers-asynchronous replication system... <http://momjian.us/main/writings/pgsql/sgml/query-broadcast-load-balancing.html> "This can be complex to set up because functions like random() and CURRENT_TIMESTAMP will have different values on different servers, and sequences should be consistent across servers." It doesn't make sense to call this "complex to set up." This problem isn't about complexity of setup; it is about whether updates are processed identically on different hosts. Perhaps better: "Query broadcasting can break down such that servers fall out of sync if the queries have nondeterministic behavior. For instance, functions like random(), CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, and nextval('some_sequence') will take on different values on different servers. Care must be taken at the application level to make sure that queries are all fully deterministic and that they either COMMIT or ABORT on all servers." <http://momjian.us/main/writings/pgsql/sgml/clustering-for-load-balancing.html> "24.6. Clustering For Load Balancing In clustering, each server can accept write requests, and these write requests are broadcast from the original server to all other servers before each transaction commits. Under heavy load, this can cause excessive locking and performance degradation. It is implemented by Oracle in their RAC product. PostgreSQL does not offer this type of load balancing, though PostgreSQL two-phase commit can be used to implement this in application code or middleware." Something doesn't feel entirely right here... How about... "24.6. Multimaster Replication For Load Balancing In this scenario, each server can accept write requests, which are broadcast from the original server to all other servers before each transaction commits in order to ensure consistency. Unfortunately, under heavy load, the cost of distributing locks across servers can lead to substantial performance degradation. It is implemented by Oracle in their RAC product. PostgreSQL does not offer this type of load balancing, though PostgreSQL two-phase commit using <xref linkend="sql-prepare-transaction-title"> and <xref linkend= "sql-commit-prepared-title"> may be used to implement this in application code or middleware. The communications costs involved in distributing locks and writes have the result that write operations are considerably more expensive than they would be on a single server. In general, the cost of distributed locking means that this clustering approach is only usable across a cluster of servers at a local site. There will only be a performance "win" if the cluster mostly processes read-only traffic that the cluster can distribute across a larger number of database servers. Write performance generally degrades a fair bit as compared to using a single database server. Reliability should be enhanced since the cluster should be able to continue work even if some of the members of the cluster should fail." <http://momjian.us/main/writings/pgsql/sgml/clustering-for-parallel-query-execution.html> "24.7. Clustering For Parallel Query Execution This allows multiple servers to work on a single query. One possible way this could work is for the data to be split among servers and for each server to execute its part of the query and results sent to a central server to be combined and returned to the user. There currently is no PostgreSQL open source solution for this." This seems a bit thin. "24.7. Clustering For Parallel Query Execution This allows multiple servers to work concurrently on a single query, analagous to the way RAID permits multiple disk drives to respond concurrently to disk I/O requests. One way this could work is for the data to be partitioned across the servers, where each server executes its part of the query, submitting results to a central server to be combined and returned to the user.

WAYNESBURG – Dr. Sut Sakchutchawan, associate professor of international business and director of the international studies program at Waynesburg University, recently presented a research paper at an international conference in Thailand from June 15 to 17.
The International Academy of Business and Economics conference took place at the Centara Convention Center at Central World in Bangkok, Thailand.
The theme of the conference was "Research/Teaching Excellence in Business and Economics."
Sakchutchawan's research paper, "The Impact of Governance and Complexity of Uniform Customs and Technology on Operations Management: Third Party Logistics Case Studies," discusses the superior capacity of third party logistics providers utilized by international firms to maintain their high efficiency in operations management. Key success factors of superior services were illustrated in terms of case studies.
The International Academy of Business and Economics is a leading global organization of academic scholars, business executives, students and public policy makers in business, economics and related fields.
The objective of IABE is to promote international exchange of state-of-the-art knowledge and ideas in teaching, research and managerial best practices to help improve nations' productivity and competitiveness.
"The conference provided the most innovative business teaching and research to faculty and education leaders worldwide," said Sakchutchawan. In addition to a post doctorate in management from the University of Toledo, Sakchutchawan holds a Ph.D. from Union Institute and University.
He earned a bachelor of arts degree from Ramkhamhaeng State University, a master of arts degree from Thammasat State University and a master of business administration from National University.

1. Graphene Sheets from worm-like graphite
Tsinghua University researchers have made high quality graphene sheets have been prepared by a facile liquid phase exfoliation of worm-like graphite (WEG). This approach combining with the advances in large scale industry manufacturing of WEG could potentially lead to the development of new and more effective graphene products.
Supplemental information is here
2. Etching of Graphene Devices with a Helium Ion Beam
We report on the etching of graphene devices with a helium ion beam, including in situ electrical measurement during lithography. The etching process can be used to nanostructure and electrically isolate different regions in a graphene device, as demonstrated by etching a channel in a suspended graphene device with etched gaps down to about 10nm. Graphene devices on SiO2 substrates etch with lower He ion doses and are found to have a residual conductivity after etching, which we attribute to contamination by hydrocarbons.

In a previous post we looked at a few pieces from the Superprototype exhibition as part of 100% Design Tokyo but there was one I left out that I just want to post as is…
unction: Hanger
size: W360 x H230 x T5mm
material: Acrylic / Polycarbonate
On a rainy day
I was going to go to cinema, but I decided not to.
Rainy weather lose my energy to go out so I was just looking outside without thinking.
I can see a Taps hanging on the pole in the garden, getting all wet
I took a long look at the "Taps", see the rain comes down, through the hunger and dripping from the end of the taps.
!drip again and again!
looking at it makes depressed rainy day a little happier.
Explanatory note
"Taps" is a open air hunger shaped as tap.
Hunger itself is inclining gently so the water run through it slowly to the end of the tap and drip a rain drop.
Washing is not hanging on a rainy day but the hunger is always hanging outside.
Using that ordinary state, give a little change to the hunger makes the depressed rainy weather day can be a smiley rainy day.

Potential Dam Failure for Blyllesby/Buck Hydroelectric Dams
The National Weather Service in Blacksburg has issued a Flash Flood Watch for Wythe County, specifically the areas of Ivanhoe and Austinville. The watch was issued in response to a notification from American Electric Power (AEP) regarding developing problems at the Byllesby/Buck Hydroelectric Dams on the New River.
Residents of Ivanhoe, Austinville and those in low lying areas along the New River are advised to monitor local forecasts and be prepared to take action should flash flood warnings be issued. The watch will remain in effect through the morning of Friday, February 1, 2013.
The state of the dams is currently a Condition B, which means that there is a potential dam failure at one or both of the dams. An imminent failure is not expected at this time, but the dam operators have been unable to access the dam due to flooding in the area.
The New River is already in flood conditions due to the extremely heavy rains from January 30. A failure of either of these dams would increase flows on the New River but how much is uncertain at this time.
Wythe County is working to ensure the safety of the residents of these communities and the eastern portion of the County by taking necessary precautions. More information will be relayed to residents as it is made available to County Administration.

Dallas Cowboys alum Emmitt Smith is a little disappointed he didn't make it to the "Dancing with the Stars: All-Stars" finals, but he goes home from the show knowing he did his absolute best.
"At the end of the day, I have to look myself in the mirror and I did this morning. And I did last night. And I asked myself one question: Did I give it my all? Did I cheat her — [my partner, Cheryl Burke] — in any way? And my answer is, 'No,'" Emmitt told Access Hollywood backstage after his Tuesday elimination. "I gave it my all. I came in with the right attitude and I pushed, she pushed. And I pushed myself to a limit that I thought I couldn't go to and that part I'm proud of."
Emmitt and Cheryl were eliminated on the same night as Apolo Anton Ohno and Karina Smirnoff.
Cheryl, who won the mirrorball with Emmitt in Season 3, leaves the competition with no regrets.
"I think we did everything we could do and it's all up to everyone at home to vote and unfortunately we didn't make it, but, we'll move on," she said. "Life goes on. It's not that big of a deal.
"Emmitt did such a great job," she continued. "I'm so proud of his determination and what he went through. I mean, we worked so hard and we couldn't have done it any better."
With no competition to prepare for next week, Emmitt will indulge in family time over the Thanksgiving holiday.
"[I heard Cheryl] say she's going back to spend some time with her family, and I'm going to do the same thing in Texas and go cook my kids some deep fried turkey and sit back on the couch and watch some football because I really haven't had the chance to do it," he said.
He'll also let his tootsies take a break.
"Rest that toe of yours," Cheryl said of Emmitt's injured foot.
"Oh my big toe. Got to let that mother calm down," he added, with a laugh.
The "DWTS: All-Stars" finals kick off on Monday at 8/7c on ABC.

County Maps Showing Potential Environmental Justice Areas
As established in DEC Commissioner Policy 29 on Environmental Justice and Permitting (CP-29), Potential EJ Areas are 2000 U.S. Census block groups of 250 to 500 households each that, in the 2000 Census, had populations that met or exceeded at least one of the following statistical thresholds:
- At least 51.1% of the population in an urban area reported themselves to be members of minority groups; or
- At least 33.8% of the population in a rural area reported themselves to be members of minority groups; or
- At least 23.59% of the population in an urban or rural area had household incomes below the federal poverty level.
Urban and rural designations for census block groups were established by the U.S. Census Bureau. See CP-29 for more information.
The Office of Environmental Justice has replaced the original county maps of Potential Environmental Justice Areas (PEJAs) with new interactive PDF maps that have improved clarity and detail. To view PEJAs in greater detail and see them with other spatial information, download the GIS layer of PEJAs in KMZ format for Google Earth (TM).

Note: 1
These maps should be used as a general representation only. Where uncertainty exists, staff should contact the Office of Environmental Justice to obtain a detailed map of the geographic area of interest.
Note: 2
The maps are based on data from the 2000 U.S. Census. Occasionally the mapped potential environmental justice areas (PEJAs) will conflict with what is known or what is expected for a geographic area. This is commonly due to minor discrepancies in the 2000 U.S. Census demographic data, the GIS application used to create the maps, or some other discrepancy. For instance, some cemeteries, parks or other open space areas with little or no residential population may appear as PEJAs; and, although rare, sometimes a census block group with a low number of racial or ethnic minorities or a high average income level will appear as a PEJA. Also, prisons or other institutions with a high minority population may weight the census block group, causing it to appear as a PEJA on the map.
To address these apparent discrepancies, ground truthing is performed where the map appears to conflict with what is known or what is expected for a geographic area. Ground truthing refers to the collection of reference material used to verify the demographic data. Ground truthing may be accomplished through a variety of methods, including: a review of the census data, a site visit, the application of personal or institutional knowledge, or the collection of field or other data.

Still Charting Memory's Depths
The New York Times:
MONTREAL — In many ways, the Obama administration's new plan to map the human brain has its origins in the work of Brenda Milner, the neuropsychologist whose detailed observations of an amnesia patient in the 1950s showed how memory is rooted in specific regions of the brain.
"Prior to Brenda Milner's discoveries, many behaviorists and some cognitive psychologists followed the lead of Freud and Skinner in abandoning biology as a useful guide to the study of memory," the Nobel laureate Dr. Eric Kandel wrote in his memoir, "In Search of Memory." "Milner's work changed all that."
The amnesia patient, Henry Molaison (known during his lifetime only as H.M., to protect his privacy), died at 82 in 2008; his brain is now being dissected and digitally mapped in exquisite detail.
But Dr. Milner is still very much alive. Two months short of her 95th birthday, she puts in full days at the Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital, where she is studying left/right brain differences.

Finally, some news to soothe the millennial jitters. Not. The odds are higher than you might expect that before Y3K, an asteroid will plunge into the ocean and trigger a powerful surge of water called a tsunami that inundates shorelines somewhere, researchers say.
The odds are vanishingly small that an asteroid will strike a particular spot on Earth. However, after any impact, collateral damage can range far and wide due to fires, dust clouds, and tsunamis, which can travel thousands of kilometers from impacts in the sea. Tsunamis are composed of a series of broad waves, causing repeated floods far inland, so even a 2-meter-tall tsunami, a mere pup, can damage low-lying areas far more extensively than normal storm waves. Researchers have used computer models to show that tsunamis from rare kilometer-sized asteroids could wipe out entire coasts, but no one had studied the hazards posed by smaller impacts.
A new analysis by geophysicist Steven Ward and planetary scientist Erik Asphaug of the University of California, Santa Cruz, concludes that the biggest tsunami hazard arises from asteroids between 30 and a few hundred meters across, which may strike the ocean every 1000 to 100,000 years. The team assessed many factors that determine risk, from impact rates to wave size and how energetic a wave remains after traversing the ocean. Their results, to appear in the journal Icarus, show that a typical coastal site facing a broad expanse of ocean has a 1 in 14 chance of experiencing a 2-meter-tall tsunami in the next 1000 years. The chances fall to 1 in 35 for 5-meter tsunamis and 1 in 345 for devastating 25-meter waves. Ward and Asphaug also assessed the specific hazards for six major cities. For instance, Tokyo has a 1 in 24 chance of a 5-meter tsunami in the next millennium, while New York City faces 1 in 47 odds of similar waves.
"This is a more realistic assessment than any I have seen," says planetary scientist Alan Hildebrand of the University of Calgary in Alberta, Canada. He notes that certain coastal and seafloor shapes can amplify tsunamis, increasing the hazard at some sites. However, planetary scientist David Crawford of Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque, New Mexico, cautions that his own supercomputer calculations of ocean impacts produce tsunamis up to 10 times smaller than those in Ward and Asphaug's analysis. "We've agreed to disagree," Crawford says.

Perrysburg PTO treasurer accused of theft has prior arrest history
Tue, 29 May 2012 23:17:22 GMT —
On Tuesday, Perrysburg Police arrested the treasurer of the Toth Parent Club 35-year-old Kiki Lorann.
Lorann has now been charged with one count of theft and two counts of grand theft but has faced similar charges before.
Authorities say the most recent charges stem from an investigation launched after the Perrysburg Elementary Parents Association (PEPA) contacted police to report financial discrepancies in their records.
In addition to PEPAâ??s estimated $48,727.73 in losses, two other organizations are also claiming to have found financial discrepancies.
According to a Perrysburg Police press release, the Toth Parent Club is also reporting a loss of $43,792.67 and the Perrysburg Sting traveling baseball discovered $3,067.21 was unaccounted for.
WNWO has learned that despite a 2001 arrest for theft and a 2009 indictment for passing bad checks, Lorann was named to at least 2 officer positions for the Toth Parent Club, was in charge of financials for PEPA and was named as the manager of the Perrysburg Sting.
Sheâ??s now accused of stealing almost $100,000 dollars from all 3 groups.
Investigators say that at this time it appears Junior High and High School organizations were not affected.
Lorann is due to appear in count, on the charges, on Wednesday.

Redline synth oil is the best! Used it from day one in my FXD and no issues at 20K miles. One thing I'll mention is that the FXD only uses 3 QTs. for a change w/oil filter so buying a gallon (4 QTs.) means measuring rather than just pouring in 3 QTs.

New Performance -Based Weathering Standards
The new documents, which have been available since 1997 and which received minor revisions in 1999, were created by a task group of Subcommittee G03.03 on Simulated and Controlled Exposure Tests in Committee G-3 on Weathering and Durability.
"The intention was to change the documents from being specific to a particular hardware configuration or particular test apparatus to a performance-based approach, where instead of describing a piece of hardware, we describe what the device must do," said Patrick Brennan of Q-Panel Lab Products, Ohio, who co-chairs the task group with Warren Ketola of 3M.
