HOUSTON (CBS Houston) – The child sex abuse scandal coming out of Penn State University involves alleged child sex crimes, one of which may have occurred in Texas when the school's football team was in San Antonio for the Alamo Bowl in 1999.
San Antonio police Sgt. Chris Benavides told the Associated Press Thursday that his department is "looking into the possibility that an offense may have happened" while the football team was in town.
Related: Sandusky Grand Jury Report
Former Penn State coach Jerry Sandusky, who coached at Penn State for more than 30 years, is the accused perpetrator and faces child sex abuse charges in Pennsylvania. A grand jury report says a young boy, who was allegedly molested, was threatened to be sent home if the victim resisted Sandusky's criminal sex acts against him.
Legendary coach Joe Paterno was fired Wednesday for his role in not reporting to police what he knew about Sandusky's alleged crime.
Houston connection: Texans WR Bryant Johnson Discusses His Time At Penn State
Just because ANNA-MEGAN RALEY left the word acts out of the story does not mean you should point it out. Ar least she never leaves out the hyphen in her name.
That's flippin hilarious! Your comment made me laugh after all these horrible stories brought me down.
There is a pimp at every Penn State game.
Jerry's Sandusky's new book, set for release in 2013:
"Touched by Tyrone: From PENN STATE to the STATE PEN"
I always wondered what a "Nittany Lion" is.
Apparently it's like a 'Cougar' except instead of older women liking younger men, it's old Penn State Coaches liking boys….
Nebraska is on it's way to thump you all tomorrow. I will enjoy every minute of it!
Maybe when the feds are done with Penn State they will start looking at all the colleges and what sexual perversion goes on? Rapes not reported to the local police, gay rape, gang rape, pedophelia? Are you absolutely sure your Nebraska is above reproach in all these matters? I think it is just the tip of the iceburg. We will see if the feds have the balls to investigate or at least impose strictor guidelines and have outside investigators look into matters that happen on campuses throught the US.
Ummm, I doubt the Nebraska footbal program had a Jerry Sandusky so what actually is your point?
I don't know about Nebraska, but I can guarantee you that if a Jerry Sandusky was ever to have shown up at Michigan working for our "legendary coach" Bo Schembechler, he would have been fired immediately.
Yeah, because it's all about the game at this point. Stay classy Husker Nation.
let's go corn huskers!
cntrfrk – I'm glad you'll enjoy every minute of Nebraska "thumping" Penn State tomorrow. Good for you. Why don't you show a little more Nebraska-style class and express your genuiine concern for the innocent victimes?
the same way the idiot rioters did? Oh wait.. they rioted because pedoterno the enabler was fired.. not a word about the kids, then send death threats to the guy that spoke up..
I am impressed that you read the comments, Anna-Megan.
From now on they will be known as Pedd State.
Cougar: An older woman who has sex with younger men.
Nittany Lion: An older man who has sex with younger boys.
As a former PSU student I take offense to your 'joke' here. Don't judge the students, alumni, or student athletes by the few who did this. I am all for sending them all to prison. But your immature comments like this do nothing to help anyone ' Mack Daddy'. I would recommend you take your 16 year old self and go get an education to learn the difference between immaturity and being an adult.
Dude, the Pedd State brand name is toast. No one will ever look at your resume the same way again. Did the student body riot when they found out that there had been a disgusting pedophile in their midst? Hell no, they only rioted when the man who hired the man who ass-raped children was fired. JoePa enabled the abuse of those kids. They should just bulldoze the whole university — its over for Pedd State.
If these egrgrious crimes and cover ups can happen at Penn State, they can happen ANYWHERE.
Considering the long chain of PSU students, coaches and administrators who let this happen, any one of whom could have stopped the abuse in its tracks, I think it's safe to make exactly that sort of judgment on the PSU culture, top down.
Name another university where this kind of massive coverup could have taken place.
PSU "Mack Daddy"Obviously you don't get an education to learn the difference between immaturity and being an adult at Pedophile State University. If you did the idiot students wouldn't have rioted and overturned vans .You are right, iImmature comments don't help anyone but neither does the actions of the students.
Pedd State Shota kats
How about Pedophile State University. They don't even have to change their initials-PSU
That'll work, so will Perv State.
The Penn State child sex crimes are not about one pervert, Jerry Sandusky.
This is about a large group of men in a very lucrative business and social community who for years looked the other way because they condoned using young boys for sex or they personally participated in male to male sexual victimizations. How many boys over the age of 18 were also sexually victimized at Penn State the last 40 years?
I bet you will find out it is also not about one isolated college either?
Second Mile has been ASSociated with Sandusky since 1977!!
When asked about the situation, the 2nd mile CEO said, "Jerry has been busting ass for this organization for years!!"
With the "sudden disappearance" of Centre County DA Ray Gricar in 2005, I'm afraid this is going to get even uglier!
"The graveyards are full of indispensable men."
– Charles de Gaulle
And more than likely it goes back many deacdes….starting when Sandusky was in his twenties.
How many pervert alumni were buying kids from Sandusky? That's the next investigation.
Pedd State is history.
They need to just close it down and start over.
I work at a large engineering shop near Pittsburgh with 12 or so Penn State grads in my department of 100. All of these people are are appalled by this. Many good people went to PSU and want justice for the victims. Please do not paint these people with this heinous brush.
They're just afraid their name will come out.. Pedd State = Ass-Busters.
Technically, former Penn State coach Jerry Sandusky could be spend his final days on Texas death row surrounded by murderers with nothing to lose. A second conviction for the aggravated sexual assault of someone under 14 is eligible for the death penalty. Courts would most likely overturn death penalty for child rape, but living conditions would be miserable while his case works its way through the legal system.
He would never spend a second in Texas. His victims are primarily in Pennsylvania and they're file charges first, have him in custody, and he will serve his time there first (i.e., until he dies).
That's where you're wrong. It doesn't matter where the majority of the crimes were. It matters that any crime happened in Texas. I hope they pull out the electric chair for this child petter!
When seconds count, the police are only minutes away. Or in this case, about 12 years away…..
How many of the team players over the past decades found gratification through Sandusky's kids. Where will this perversion lead?
It looks as though the average mental age of the posters here is less than that of the victims.
I just hope gay marriages can still adopt little boys, after all this.
Nebraska Vs Penn state: Corn Huskers Vs Corn Holers.
Next weeks game: The Butt Guys vs. the Buckeyes
Corruption and the defense of it. Children sacrificed for gain. We watch.
No adult has the right to sexualise any child!
'Below 18 years old' SHOULD mean 'keep your thoughts/desires to yourself'!
Pope J. Paul-2 made it church policy, saying "sexuality MUST be open to precreation"!
Preteens (male & female), and teens, (male) are incapable of pregnancy as a general (biological) fact/rule.
Why is all this such a diffcult idea to concieve of / accept / retain, when one is an educated adult, (like the Penn State Perps), and/or, when one is so 'hyper-educated & mature' that one, (as a condition of 'employment'), tells a billion+ others 'how they MUST conduct their sexuality, or else'?
…As Joseph Ratzinger alleges himself required to do?

I first met David in Medellin a little over a year ago. He wasn't yet in the country much longer than I was, but seemed to know the entire expat scene (in the couple times we hung out he was constantly running into groups of gringos that he knew).
His love for Medellin helped make him the go-to guy for advice on the city, which he shares on his popular Medellin blog. I used him a couple times when I needed fresh ideas for where to take girls on dates.
Right now he's back in Medellin, subsisting on income from his internet properties. He took the time to answer some questions…
1. Can you give us a little background on your age and the type of environment you grew up in? What are some things that influenced you earlier in life that put you into the position you are in now?
I recently turned 34, and by all accounts, grew up in a stable, upper middle class American family. My parents have been married over 35 years. My mom stayed at home with me and my younger brother, while my dad, a businessman, worked hard to provide a comfortable standard of living for us all.
I began listening to punk music very early. By age 10, I can remember owning a Sex Pistols tape. In my early teens, I was listening to bands like The Dead Kennedys and Suicidal Tendencies. By my late teens, I was getting into the California bands like Pennywise and NOFX. Even though I was very introverted and reserved growing up, the lyrics by these bands and others affected my developing attitudes toward how a guy should live his life.
After college graduation, three of my best friends were planning to travel around Europe for the Summer. It seemed like a great opportunity, so despite my parent's protests, I joined them. It was my first time traveling abroad without my parents, and I quickly learned how easy it was to find a place to stay, meet other travelers, and get around. After about 10 days, my friends all wanted to go home due to lack of funds, or girlfriend withdrawal. I thought they were crazy, and since neither problem was an issue for me, I spent the next 6 weeks traveling on my own. Despite some loneliness, I had an amazing time, and was officially hooked on the freedom that backpacking and solo travel afforded.
2. Talk about your ideal girl. What does she look like? Where is she from? What's her personality like?
The more time I spend outside the United States, the more I realize my ideal girl is from a European or Latin American country. I love to travel, and discovering new cultures through relations with women is a lot more exciting than talking to taxi drivers and walking around a city with other backpackers.
Right now, it's safe to say I'm smitten with the women of Colombia, where I'm currently living. Here, my type is the norm: a few inches shorter than me (I'm 5'8″) or equal in heels, with tan skin, long black hair, and a petite body. She doesn't speak English, which forces me to improve my Spanish. That provides a fun, sometimes frustrating dynamic to the dating experience. She's dependable and punctual, which seems to be a rarity in Colombian women, and is pursuing her own passions in life. We absolutely must connect on the dance floor, as it's a big part of the nightlife here, and an activity I can't get enough of after being a wallflower all my life.
One of the downsides to Colombian women (who don't have dual citizenship, in say, the USA), is that travel is very difficult and expensive for them. Since traveling and living abroad is extremely important to me and my work, I don't know if I could ever be in a long term relationship with a Colombian girl. In that respect, Western European women (French, Italian, Spanish) become a more attractive option.
3. What type of game do you run? How does your typical bang go down? How do you change your game when you're abroad versus in your home country?
I began reading and practicing game in early 2009. I was a member of the Stylelife Academy for about a year, and was able to connect with other guys in the Washington, DC area to go out with. My game is the antithesis of cocky/funny. If there's such a thing as "sincere" game, that would sum up my approach. Early in conversation, I focus on highlighting my travel experiences and independent lifestyle. Ideally, a first date will be at a salsa club where I can DHV, gauge her attraction via body language, and be in an easy position to go for the first kiss.
In the USA, I find Internet dating to be a waste of time. It requires far too much effort, and offers too little in return. By comparison, in Colombia, I can copy/paste the same message to a hundred attractive women, and get enough results to keep me occupied for months. The interested ones respond back with their phone number or e-mail address, as if to say "let's cut to the chase."
As other interviewees have already mentioned, I've discovered in Colombia that it pays to line up dates via the Internet before you visit a new city. I think this strategy will change how I travel going forward.
4. Describe your travel experiences and strategy. What kind of lodgings do you stay in? How do you approach integrating yourself into a new culture with regard to food, language, local customs, etc.? What do you fill your days with? Do you have a basic strategy for meeting women while you travel?
In November 2007, I resigned from my management job at an insurance company to take a 15-month trip around the world. I visited over 20 countries on 5 continents, staying in a mix of hostel dorms, beach bungalows, cheap hotels, and private homes via Couchsurfing.
When I got to Medellin in early 2009, and decided to stay for 6 months, I spent the first month living in a party hostel which was terrible from a logistical standpoint. Even with a private room for part of the time, I wasn't allowed to have overnight guests. Once I made the switch to renting rooms in apartments, I didn't have to worry about such rules. If I'm traveling to other parts of Colombia, I pay more for private, budget hotel rooms. I do this not only because it makes it easier to bring a girl back if the opportunity arises, but because I'm getting tired of the hostel scene and like to have a quiet, comfortable place to work.
Until I got to Colombia, I put little to no effort into learning other languages because I was always just passing through, and it's easy to rely on English, or simple body language to communicate. In Colombia, I began to learn Spanish, and am being rewarded with more dates as a result. Couchsurfing has been a great way to see cities and cultures from a local's perspective. Trying new foods has become an increasingly important part of my experiences, and I've been greatly influenced by Anthony Bourdain.
While traveling, my days are filled with typical sightseeing activities. During my RTW trip, I spent more time than I expected updating my blog at Go Backpacking. I was earning a few hundred bucks a month from advertising, but that kept me motivated to publish content 6-7 days a week. While living in Medellin, I spend a lot more time blogging/working in my apartment, and fill my free time with the gym, salsa lessons and dancing, movies, and hanging out with friends. In the countries I visited before Colombia, I was always trying to hook up with other travelers, but that changed when I got to Colombia and my attention was focused squarely on the beautiful locals.
5. How do you make a living? How did you get into it? What are some skills you had to learn?
I currently make a living through travel blogging. My primary blog is Go Backpacking, while I began Medellin Living last year to document the expat lifestyle in Colombia. I also launched a membership website, Travel Blog Success, earlier this year to help other people build high quality travel blogs. Most of my income is from selling advertising on the two blogs, though I am beginning to offer private consulting services as well.
After my first trip to Europe in 1998, I returned home and taught myself basic HTML so I could publish my handwritten journal on the Internet. After people actually started reading the thing, and emailing me for advice, I bought the GoBackpacking.com domain and added more content. I even made a few hundred bucks from a Eurorail affiliation at the time. But creating an HTML site wasn't fun or easy, so I went on a 5-year hiatus, before getting into blogging in 2007, ahead of my RTW trip. My friend had convinced me there was money to be made, and he was right. In addition to knowing some HTML, learning how to build websites using WordPress, write effectively for an online audience, and optimize content for the search engines has been important. I've also learned a lot about negotiating with advertisers, leveraging social media to build a brand, and Internet marketing.
6. What are your future goals? How do you see your life playing out in the next 10-20 years?
I'm currently planning to spend New Year's in Tokyo, Japan, and then see a little of the country in early January 2011. Afterward, I'd like to address some business-related needs back in the US, and then return to Medellin for another 6 months. Starting in July 2011, I'd like to see the rest of South America. In terms of my online income, my goal for 2011 is to average $5,000 per month which means I'll need to do more work, and less partying.
In the next 10 years, I'd like to continue splitting my time between traveling and living abroad in a variety of countries, such as Brazil, Italy, and France. I'd also like to be earning six figures from my web business. Along the way, I'd get married, and maybe have a kid or two.
7. Tell us more about Colombia. Why are you drawn to the country? How are the women like? How is it like to live there? Has the country changed your opinion of America, either the culture or the women?
Colombia as a travel destination first entered my mind in May 2005 when I met a Swiss backpacker in Costa Rica who had been there. He said it was safe, and the women were beautiful (specifically, they had big tits). From that point forward, I was determined to get there to see the women for myself, and also to go somewhere everyone else in the world deemed too dangerous.
In January 2009, I couchsurfed with a cute university student my first week in Bogota, and as she took me around the city, I began to realize most Colombians were normal, well-intentioned people. It helped that I wasn't being shot at or kidnapped either. When I flew the 25 minutes to Medellin, I immediately knew I was in a city I didn't want to leave. Medellin sits in a valley 1,500 meters above sea level, surrounded by big green mountains. A metro system and cheap taxis make getting around the city easy, and the temperatures are Spring-like year round. For a city of 2-million, it has a small village feel to it.
In the 30+ countries I've seen so far, there have always been beautiful women, though some have far more than others (sorry Rwanda and Nepal). For me, the typical Colombian girl is the sexiest. She's very image conscious and thus takes care in her appearance, whether at the gym or a nightclub. She displays a sense of femininity that seems lost in American women. Chances are she has a good sense of rhythm, and can dance well. Unfortunately, they have strong jealous streaks, and are also very flaky, and far less punctual than American women. And while I've come to expect it, I still get annoyed.
8. What's the most important thing you've learned so far in life?
Have the courage to pursue the kind of life you want to live—follow your passions, regardless of what others say, and don't give up. Chances are it will take a lot of hard work, patience, and persistence, but it'll be worth it.

Kissing Customs and Fun Facts
A kiss is the most articulate way of communication. There are people that may confuse you with the way they express their affection, whether is too forward or way laid back. Especially, when you meet someone who comes from a different place on the globe, religion or culture, the first impression will most likely be shocking. This type of nonverbal communication is differently accepted in almost every country or region in the world. In China and Japan you might get in trouble if you try to kiss a local in a public place and you will be warned if you display too much affection also. Times are changing of course, and some Japanese families adopt the western wedding style, but the end kiss is still given on the cheek instead of the mouth. This is absurd if you ask an American couple who gave their wedding vows in Las Vegas, but traditions are traditions. So without further a due, let's see where kissing will get you in trouble and where you will be expected to give big, wet and bewitching smooches.
The Three Kisses Rule
The three kisses greeting is an Arab social gesture, but many other western countries kiss three times also. If you ever visit Turkey for instance, you will be obligated to kiss everyone you meet three times. In the East, this ritual is a sign of good will, friendship and acceptance. Men kiss men, women kiss men only if they are members of the family or really good family friends. Women kiss women three times also, while wishing good fortune or consoling each other. If you want to get really personal, you can put your hand on the other person's shoulder and tap them slightly while you turn cheeks. Sometimes for visiting people, this gesture might get confusing and embarrassing. When you don't want your heads shaking in the middle with your lips popped out, always go for the right cheek first. You should never actually kiss the person on their cheeks and some people don't even touch their cheeks. Instead, you can kiss the air near their ear and make the kissing sound. Elderly, kids and people who you've longed for may be kissed more than three times, as it shows deep affection or admiration. Sometimes, between the three kisses, the greeter might pause to say something about your onset, presence or stay in their home, while shaking your hand firmly or tapping your shoulder. In Eastern European countries like, France, Netherlands, Italy and Belgium people kiss two times instead of three, but the number of kisses almost always depends on the type of circle people are in and their customs.
The three kisses rule is still a practice in Serbia, Slovenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro and Macedonia, as well as Egypt. In these countries, women may kiss men, men may kiss men and all other combinations are acceptable too. In Italy, Belgium as well as Mexico only one kiss is enough to tell somebody hello or goodbye. In Oman, a man might kiss the other man's nose after their friendly handshake, which is usually a sign that their meeting went very well. In all of these countries the kissing ritual is practiced as a way to say hello and goodbye. In some parts of France you might even get four kisses if the host likes you or has been anticipating your arrival. In more conservative places however, when you first meet someone, you might not be a part of the kissing ritual, but they will surely give you a goodbye kiss. If you want to become a citizen of the Netherlands, you will have to pass the integration test called Inburgerings examen, in which you will be shown a picture of two gay men kissing. One question in the test will be how you would react if you see two gay men kissing in a public place.
Countries Not Very Fond of Kissing
Islamic countries do not allow any public display of love, and you can really get in trouble if you kiss someone is the middle of the street. Those who follow the path of Muhammad are not allowed to kiss a member of the opposite sex until they get married. Even then, kissing in public may ruin your reputation or earn you a fine in some parts of the world. Prince William and Kate didn't kiss at the end of their wedding ceremony inside the Westminster Abbey church, to preserve the holiness of the moment. In Majorca, public kissing was banned by law in 1969. When 30 love couples protested they were all arrested and forced to pay around 200 dollars in order to be released. Russia tried to ban public kissing in 2003, but young people were outraged and showed their dissatisfaction with the new regulation. They were kissing strangers on the streets just to prove their point and the ban failed. On the opposite, if you ever travel with public busses in some Balkan countries, you can see posters in the window announcing that kissing is allowed. In Germany, kissing is not very favored. Instead of a smooch, you will get a handshake or a simple head nod. But if you are a lady, a gentleman may kiss the top of your hand. In American states such as Indiana and Connecticut, there are very bizarre anti-kissing laws. If you have mustaches in Indiana you are not allowed to kiss people habitually and a Hartford man is not allowed to kiss his wife on Sunday.
How the letter X Became a Kissing Symbol
Nowadays we send virtual kisses in online chats, text messages and private mails. We use the letter X and we think it's because it's shorter and more convenient. But X's were used as kisses since medieval times. In those days not everyone was educated and knew how to read or write. But they still had to send packages, letters and documents and seal them somehow. Every delivery was done in front of witnesses as to avoid misplacement and the letter X was inserted on the package. That letter made the package legal as it was a sacred symbol for truth. The sender had to kiss the X in order to show sincerity and respect for the assignee. Later, people send virtual kisses in their correspondences. They wrote the letter X somewhere in their note and kissed it, so that the acceptor would know where the sender kissed it. There is another origin of the X letter. The papal slippers were made from red silk and satin, with ruby embroidered with golden tread to them in the form of a cross. When pilgrims were visiting the pope, they had to kneel before him and kiss the cross on the slippers or his ring as a sign of faith.
Kissing Customs throughout History
The Romans were the first civilization who spread the kissing ritual. If a Roman kissed you, that meant that you are worthy of his respect. Their kiss was the ultimate symbol of friendship and affection, so enemies didn't get the chance to be smooched. Romans kissed each other on the mouth after a won battle and being kissed on the mouth in that time was a high social status indicator. If you were not very important to them or they didn't like you very much, you would still get a kiss but on the hand, cloth or ring. As Christianity spread out through the world, the Roman church became concerned about this custom and how it encourages people on sinful lifestyles, so the mouth fixation slowly started waning. In the 16th century one kiss could give you the death penalty. And a stolen kiss would bring you to the Roman court, where you would have to pay a fine, depending on the injured party social status and rank. Knights kissed each other after their sparring tournaments and they were always kissed by the lord they protected. That was a way to say "thank you for your service". Greeks kissed each other 7 or 8 centuries BC. King Priam was the ruler of Troy. Achilles killed his son during a jousting, took his body and dragged it to the Greek encampment outside of Troy. When he decided to give him back in favor of a proper funeral, king Priam kisses his hands in order to thank him. Egyptians, however, refused to kiss Greeks because they were feeding on their holy animal, the cow. Evidences support the fact that Egyptians did not actually kiss on the mouth or cheeks. Instead, just like Eskimos, they rubbed noses together.
There are large bulks of poetry from the New Kingdom, where you can see that sharing love was an important part of the Egyptian life, but kissing is mentioned nowhere. They were cuddling and sniffing each other without the western mouth to mouth fixation. Mouth to mouth pictures can be seen in ancient depictions from Amarna, but only mother to daughter or son, which is probably the way mothers feed their children in those times. Even though kissing the feet is a tradition reserved for ancient kings, in some parts of Africa you can still see tribe members kissing their chief's feet or the ground he walked on. In the Old and New Testament, kissing is mentioned many times. There is a passage that says a man wants to divorce a woman because she did not kiss his feet once since they were married. Kisses were not shared at liberty between the sexes in the bible. A man can kiss his children, his wife or a friend, but it was not tolerable for women to kiss strangers or friends of the opposite sex. The first time when kissing is demonstrated as a contact that arouses sexual and sensual pleasure is in the Indian book, Kama Sutra. There is a whole chapter there that explains more than 30 different ways of kissing, when they are used and instructions on how to bring them into play to make your partner feel your affection. Most people consider French kissing to be the ultimate endearment, but this book dating from before our century will place the final curtain in your family, couples and sex life.
Kissing Traditions
If you have troubles persuading the ladies, kissing the Blarney Stone in Ireland will give you the power to speak what's on your mind. Winston Churchill kissed this stone and he is known as one of the greatest orators of all times. The story behind this magical stone is as follows: a woman was about to drown, but the king saved her life, so she wanted to thank him. Because the king already had everything, she how to bring them into play to make your partner feel your affection.

Winston Churchill kissed this stone and he is known as one of the greatest orators of all times. The story behind this magical stone is as follows: a woman was about to drown, but the king saved her life, so she wanted to thank him. Because the king already had everything, she casts a spell on the stone and tells him to kiss it every time he wants to turn into a sweet talker. Since then, he has been able to convince anyone into anything.
Kissing under the mistletoe is another ancient custom. This plant was placed upon the heads of the bride and groom during their wedding ceremony, because of its many powers. Mistletoe was used as protection from the evil eye, as a booster for fertility, a natural aphrodisiac and immortality. If a man and woman found themselves standing under this plant, it was a sign they had to get married. It wasn't until the 18th century that this plant was used as a Christmas decoration and until today, you have to kiss the person you meet standing under the mistletoe.
The New Year's kiss is practiced everywhere. In some parts of the world is a custom to kiss as many people in the room as you can. If you don't kiss anyone at midnight, the superstition says you have brought a year of loneliness upon yourself.
There are some scary kissing customs as well. The kiss of death remind many of Judas betraying Jesus right after he kissed him but if you know any mafia members and you get a surprise kiss from them, you better lock your doors. The name of this smooch is IL bacio Della morte and it may be a cultural meme, of course. This type of kiss is a sign that the person who got smooched has to be executed, usually after revealing some secret about the mafia family.
Unless you got the last one, all types of kisses will make your day. We spend more than 20,000 hours of our lives practicing the science of philematology (kissing), but studies showed you'll be happier if you kiss more. So you better learn and rehearse them all if you want to train your kissing muscles and break the thirty one hour world record in kissing.

Dubai in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) is a global city and the business hub of the Middle East, which surprised the entire world through its fast evolution and construction. The city has many records and nicknames, including "the shopping capital of the Middle East", thanks to over 70 shopping centres. The "City of Gold" was once a fishing village that became a trade Gulf port, exporting pearls. Oil and trade became the main economic supplier of the city and, in the last decades, tourism started to flourish, thanks to the modern structures. Study abroad in Dubai and you will discover the lifestyle that the revelation of the United Arab Emirates (U.A.E.) has to offer. International students experience the Arabic teaching system of the universities in Dubai and socialise in the city's Knowledge Village. The accredited degree programme of your choice is waiting for you in one of the worldwide known universities of Dubai.
Dubai's economy is constantly and quickly growing, thanks to oil production, tourism and trade. China and India are among the most important international trading partners of Dubai, followed by the United States, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Germany, Switzerland, Japan and the U.K.
Some of the active industries are IT and finance. Among the companies that have offices in Dubai there are Hewlett-Packard, Oracle Corporation, Microsoft, Dell, EMC Corporation, IBM, MBC, BBC, Sky News, Reuters and AP.
Dubai is the city of superlatives and, in the same time, the area where man created even 200 islands, in different shapes. In weekend and after classes Dubai always has the sites to surprise you with, even if we are talking about skyscrapers, malls, desert surroundings or beaches.
In Dubai you may see camels on the street, as well as a seven-stars hotel or even Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world and twice as tall as the Empire State Building from New York. Shopping is a common activity in Dubai, which is also rich in commercial centres. The world's largest centre of its kind is the Dubai Mall and includes an aquarium and underwater zoo, an ice rink and an indoor theme park.
After you see the city's wonders, you should also admire the Creek that crosses Dubai, Deira commercial centre, the Bur Dubai historic district, Sheikh Zayed Road with its stunning buildings and, of course, the Southwest of the city, where the Dubai Marina and other new structures stand. Jumeira and Satwa are core areas of culture and socialization.
Dubai also hosts events such as the annual Dubai Shopping Festival and famous movies were set in Dubai. Beach parties, VIP clubs and lounges are the most common places where students and young people enjoy nightlife.
Dubai is a global city. Therefore, 85% of the city's residents are foreigners and the rate is constantly growing. Among them, the South Asians are the most spread expats, followed by people from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and the Philippines.
The official language of the U.A.E. is Arabic. Yet, English is widely spoken, along with Hindi, Urdu, Bengali, Persian, Chinese and many other languages.
Climate in Dubai is, basically, warm, humid and windy, due to the desert surrounding areas. In winter, the average temperature is around 24°C (75°F) and summers have 30°C (86°F).
Pioneering British education in Dubai, with highly acclaimed degree programmes that meet the specific demands of local business and industry.
Established in 1991 and part of the Emirates Group, the Emirates Aviation University was awarded university status in December 2010 by the UAE Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research.

A good night's rest can make your day while lack of sleep weight gain
can totally break it. It is important to choose the best dietary supplement for sleep and the quality bed. For example, MelaLuna, and sealy thurloe plush mattress.
A Permanent Base
A built-in cement bed base is perfect for those who don't like to move furniture around. But before you do build one, you obviously have to ensure that you do so in the right position, else you'll have to demolish it and start from scratch. Here's how to build this king-sized bed base: build a frame of two rows of bricks 1.6m (measured from the outside) wide and 1.8m long. The top base, which overhangs by 20cm, consists of 2m-long concrete lintels that rest on the brick base. Complete the project by plastering, skimming and painting in the color of your choice. This base was painted with Earthcote Peinture Texture and the artwork above the bed is from Smart Art.
Classic Cabin
The walls of this wooden house form the perfect headboard – the interior decorator, Tina Muller, painted it white with Plascon Velvaglo. If you love the look of a wooden house but have to make do with brick or cement walls, consider cladding an entire wall with wood. A textured wall such as this also means that you do not need a headboard.
Beach-house Charm
A built-in headboard works well when a bed is placed in a bay window or between two walls. If your storage space is limited you could even consider making a 'lid' for the headboard so that you can use it for storage. If built-in cupboards don't appeal, try using a secondhand armoire for storage and hanging space – it will add loads of character to the room.
Old World Elegance
The bed, with its traditional wooden headboard and footboard, is an heirloom that comes into its own in the old-world atmosphere of this bedroom. The addition of favorite items used in unusual ways create an individual style: an old bookshelf is now a linen shelf; Indian saris form romantic curtains; old suitcases provide extra storage space and a ladder has become a towel rail.
Bohemian Rhapsody
Boho chic allows you to experiment to your heart's content. Here, for example, a stable door becomes the perfect headboard. If you prefer sleeping close to the floor a futon is ideal, as it's important to have sufficient airflow for your mattress. Note that a bed on the floor is not ideal for rooms that are damp or do not have proper ventilation. The fairy lights, sandstone cross, and heart help to create an intimate, peaceful atmosphere.
Rural Classic
If your bedroom has doors that lead outside, the most obvious position for your bed is one from which you can best enjoy a view of the garden. Earthy and natural colors such as green work here as they form a link between the interior and exterior. Avoid too much bright light in the bedroom by using a throw to soften the light, as the interior designer did here. This also creates the illusion of a four-poster bed; the rich texture of coarsely woven linen creates an interesting contrast with the metal detail of the bed.
The Cool Mediterranean
The afocal wall in a bright color, such as this one in 'Wedgewinkle' (A30-5) from Plascon, is a good alternative to a headboard. Blue evokes water and therefore creates a peaceful atmosphere; it can also help to make a warm bedroom feel cooler. However, if your room is cold or if you prefer warm colors, red – the color of passion and romance -may be the thing for you. An old suitcase has been used as a bedside table along with a book and a storage container.
Contemporary Chic
The bed always forms the focal point in a bedroom, so add to its effect by hanging a large, dramatic artwork above the bed. Black and white is a timeless combination that works extremely well in this contemporary bedroom. Mirrors on the cupboard doors, while functional, also help to make the bedroom appear larger – and the soothing white of the en-suite bathroom links perfectly with the bedroom.
Bedtime Basics
Crisp, quality linen makes the difference – buy the best bedlinen you can afford. Surround yourself with your favorite things such as photos of loved ones, books, music or candles and turn your bedroom into your personal oasis.
Flawless Floors
The calming elegant feel of this bedroom is enhanced by light wooden floorboards. To achieve this look, try painting the floor white with one coat of a deep white and then with a paler shade, then sand it lightly afterward – try a white Polvin from Plascon. For the character, any scratches and dents will add to the beauty of the distressed look. If you prefer something more hardwearing, enamel paint will be more durable and scratch-resistant; try Plascon's Floor paint.

August is here, and with it came big news! we just found a house available to rent starting on September in the exact neighbourhood we wanted.
But of course, before moving out, I wanted to get some images as proof of what became of our first house in Eindhoven.
Ill start first with the Living area, my favourite of this house. The old wooden floor makes it super cozy and gives a nice warm feeling to our mostly black & white interiors.
And with the help of our sleek Wire Base & Pot and my beautiful fern, we were able to get some green indoors raising the level of coziness even higher.
As an added touch, the Bell Lamps by Simon Legald give a slight industrial feel to the scene.
In a corner I have my little work space which is extremely useful, especially when I need to work and be a mom at the same time. With a couple of Dots from Muuto iI can leave purse and backpack everytime I get home.
Sometimes I feel i might have a problem with light and lamps, I never seem to have enough!....
For the living room I choose a Franklin Chandelier, and our kids' lego corner got a bright yellow Unfold Lamp from Muuto which I've been crazy about for a very long time.
Behind our second hand couch from IKEA we set up 2 mini stacked shelves, where we put some of our nicest accessories.
I brought the FUWL Cage Table to my house for the photo shoot but, as much as I love it, I think we need something bigger and more stable, my kids like to dance and tend to get on top of anything they have closeby. ; )
And last but not least, Lucas' Lego corner. He loves to put his favourite creations in his black String Pocket.
I'm going to miss this nice living area, but I'm sure the next one can be even nicer.
Thanks for reading!
And thanks Poeijerstraat, it has been real!

This is most probably a guerilla campaign, where stickers are attached to peoples parking cars side mirrors. The images show wild terrain where only a Jeep could go. Great idea and beautiful excecution.
But is it allowed to stick on the mirrors. Won't that piss off the car owners.
Be good!
I wonder if they had any kind of mirror shape.
I agree. Nice idea, but very dangerous. I'd hate to be making a quick lane change, look in my mirror and see an advertisement. People already think we work for the devil, no need to endanger their lives for the sake of our craft.
Probably a scam done just for awards. How many different shape and sizes of car mirrors can you do?
Nice execution..
Cool idea. I wonder if it was a real execution though.

I am one happy puppycat!
Today is National Scrapbooking Day and in honor of it, my friend and I made a sojourn out to Steinbach to visit The Scrapbook Cottage to make a few purchases! I had been saving my roubles for just such an occasion as I am normally very frugal when it comes to purchasing scrap stuff. and I spent more money than I had intended but shhh, don't tell.
Recently, I have been coveting some items from the Jenni Bowlin Studio and I was tickled pink to find the Cottage had a wide variety of items from said collection!! I picked up this:
and this which I am *so* thrilled about:
And okay, should I mention my Maya Road purchase? Well, all right, I will, since you insist:
These stamps are going to be perfect for using in my Project 365 album! I also got the Sheers: A Year to Remember - Brown and Cream.
Some other purchases include stuff from 7 Gypsies, Tim Holtz (the Grunge King), Scenic Route and a few others. If you need more specifics, let me know but until then, Happy Scrapping!

We have created some instructional videos which we hope will help to answer any questions about these new metrics.
Our district's goal is to double the number of vital congregations we have. To set a baseline, we had to determine what makes a vital congregation. We decided to look at a variety of metrics that measure various parts of a vital congregation. In addition, our Operations Team has some helpful videos to explain why these metrics are important.

If you're involved with managing safety and worker protection, you know personal protection equipment is one area that can't be sacrificed. Specifically, when it comes to hand protection and cut resistance, standard test methods are needed to guarantee workers are receiving the best protection possible.
Whether you're located in the U.S. or across the globe, industries usually rely on one of two predominate level cut resistance classification systems; ANSI/ISEA 105 or EN388. ANSI/ISEA 105 is used primarily in the U.S. while EN388 is common across Europe and other markets adhering to the CE certification process. Need to brush up on these standards? Ansell has developed a guide to everything you need to know about the standards and how changes could impact interpretation of cut protection in the future. Check out the following for more information on the standards and how they could impact your worker's safety: http://www.ansell.com/en/Campaigns/HyFlex-Intercept-Point/INTERCEPT...

Air Fryer Salmon with Maple Soy Glaze
Wholesome Air Fryer Salmon with Maple Soy Glaze is scrumptious, and prepared in minutes!
Air Fryer Salmon
I'm obsessive about this air fryer salmon as a result of it really is so fast and scrumptious! The Skinnytaste by Vremi air fryer has changed my oven for making salmon as a result of it comes out completely juicy in minutes. One other salmon recipe I like within the air fryer that's on fixed rotation in my home is that this Basil Parmesan Salmon.
This recipe is a good instance of how you can prepare dinner simple, wholesome dishes with out sacrificing taste. The maple soy glaze is scrumptious, made with simply four substances; pure maple syrup, sriracha, soy sauce and garlic. I prefer to serve it with Brussels sprouts, broccoli or brown rice. One of the best half, this couldn't be simpler, let the fish marinate 15 to 20 minutes then air fry for six to eight minutes. Whereas it's within the air fryer, take the marinade and cut back it right into a glaze that you simply pour over the fish – DELISH!
How do know if salmon is cooked?
To know if salmon is prepared, the fish will change from translucent (pink or uncooked) to opaque (pink) because it cooks. Examine for doneness after 6 to eight minutes of cooking, by peeking into the thickest half with a pointy knife or fork. It ought to flake, however nonetheless has somewhat translucency within the heart when it's performed.
Is salmon good within the air fryer?

Setting Sprays
Setting sprays, or fixing sprays are liquids that you spray onto the skin after you've finished your makeup look to add extra lasting power. Often used by makeup artists for clients that need that extra oomph to help their makeup last through a long day.
Setting sprays work by using temperature control technology. This basically works by covering the area, in this case your face in a thin film that slowly releases ingredients over 16 hours to keep your makeup from budging.
"The time-release evaporation retains moisture longer while also drawing heat away from the skin as it slowly evaporates through the day."
The act of drawing heat away from the skin means less melting and moving of products.
My favourite is M.A.C.'s Fix+ (A$27), especially in summer I'll keep it in the fridge and spray a bit on my face and as if like magic it boosts my makeup and keeps it going for the whole day.
