This tool tells you what information has been programmed into your beacon. This beacon decode program tool is NOT a means of registering your beacon and will NOT register your beacon. You must ensure that you have properly registered your beacon at www.406registration.com or otherwise with the proper authorities using the hexadecimal identificaiton (Hex ID) of the beacon and up-to-date registration information (such as your name and emergency contact informtion). To register your beacon visit www.406registration.com.
The Hex ID is a 15 hexadecimal character string (valid range: numbers 0 through 9 and letters A through F), referred to as the beacon 15 Hex Identification, or 15 Hex ID. Your beacon's 15 character Hex ID uniquely identifies your 406-MHz beacon and is encoded in the message your beacon transmits to search and rescue services if your beacon is activated. The Hex ID contains a country code that should match the flag of the aircraft or vessel (or residence country in the case of a PLB owner), and may include other identification information for the aircraft or vessel (depending on the protocol that was used when the beacon was electronically programmed). The aircraft or vessel identification included in the Hex ID may also contain the aircraft or vessel registration markings, the aircraft or vessel radio callsign, or other information.
You should find your beacon's Hex ID on a label affixed to the beacon or in the beacon documentation provided by your beacon manufacturer. If you have difficulty locating your beacon Hex ID, contact your beacon manufacturer.
Please follow the steps below to properly use the Beacon Decode Program:
Enter the beacon hexadecimal information in the field provided, ensuring that there are no blank spaces before, after or between the hexadecimal characters.
Select the decode option relating to the number of characters entered.
Press "Process".
If the program issues a warning that a character is out of range, check the data entered to ensure that all digits are hexadecimal characters. For example ensure that the numerical digit "0" was not mistakenly entered as the letter "O"; if all appears correct, then verify that that blank spaces have not been entered either before the first character, after the last character, or in between the characters of the beacon message. Place the cursor before the first character and depress the back-space key until the characters are flush against the left edge of the input box, then place the cursor immediately after the last character and press the delete key (this will remove any blank spaces that were copied into the decode box before or after the beacon message).
The program is offered for use "as is", and might not process newer beacon protocols or recently issued country codes.

The science of sync
Mathematician Steven Strogatz shows how flocks of creatures (like birds, fireflies and fish) manage to synchronize and act as a unit — when no one's giving orders. The powerful tendency extends into the realm of objects, too.

A couple of days ago, I received an email from VPNUK asking whether I could compile the latest openvpn (2.1.1) with save-password enabled and if I could make a setup that would include their pre-configured config files in the config folder.
I accepted the challenge and not only did I build the latest version of openvpn with save-password enabled, I also modified the openvpn-gui application in order to provide the end users the means to set their connections' credentials.
In the beginning I added a new menu item that said "Change credentials…" but later on I decided to modify the build-in "Change password" menu item. The modified version will detect whether or not you have the auth-user-pass in you .ovpn file and if you have it, it will display the following dialogue:
I also modified the installation a little bit in order to fix a couple of bugs (uninstalling while openvpn –gui is running etc) and add a few extra things (reboot at the end of the setup, autostart openvpn-gui etc).
If you are interested in downloading this modified version you can download it from VPNUK's website by clicking here.
By the way, you should totally check out VPNUK.info! They provide cheap, amazingly fast vpn access to hundreds of remote servers all around the world. While testing the application I was able to stream TV episodes from a well know USA channel that only streams inside the US. So if you need to fake your ip and let others think that you are in another country, don't miss VPNUK (you can even ask for a free trial).
PS: This build includes both the x86 and x64 TAP drivers

Just great
We had a fantastic time. Kids loved the garden, and weather was surprisingly perfect for this time of the year, so we even managed to have a barbecue. Sandy beach is nearby if you need this, but beautiful Kent countryside is on your doorstep. Would highly recommend!
Home from home
We had a lovely break here. The cottage is very cosy with beautiful gardens and close to a variety of days out. David and Gilley were very welcoming and perfect hosts. I would recommend to anyone looking for a quiet get away. Great for couples or if you have 1 or 2 little ones. Our little girl has fallen in love with the place and can't wait to go back!
Peaceful cottage in beautiful surroundings
We had a wonderful few days in this lovely cottage. I was really pleased to see it was just as attractive in reality as in the photos! The cottage is set in beautiful, tranquil surroundings, and was very clean and well-equipped. The owners were very helpful, providing detailed directions and information about the local area, and letting us help ourselves to home-grown raspberries! We enjoyed relaxing in the stunning garden. We used the cottage as a base for visiting places including Camber Sands, Battle, Canterbury and Whitstable. We would definitely recommend this cottage to others.
A great week in the Peacock Studio in May
We had a great week in the Peacock Studio . It is a little paradise in the quiet of rural Kent , just the place we were looking for. The garden was very beautiful in May and so were the Blue Bells and Cow Parsley we saw everywhere.
The studio itself was lovely, cosy, very clean and very well-equipped with matching linen and towels, an example of the care with which the studio is furnished by Gilly and David, the very kind and gentle.owners. Even with 4 tall (1.75m - 1.95m) Dutch people , there was plenty room for us.
We walked along the foothpaths, visited Rye, Canterbury, Kingsgate Bay, and several National Trust houses and gardens. There is so much to see, we would like to come again!
Lovely stay
We had a lovely time. Gilly & David were so kind and our children loved the house & garden. The house is very cosy & there are so many great beaches nearby & a brilliant family pool with lots of slides in Ashford if it's raining. Couldn't recommend more highly!
Lovely Cottage - Kent
This lovely cottage is set in Kent, near the sea in a beautiful area. There are many options to go for a walk in the landscape that varies from sea to hills.
We really enjoyed staying here. It's clean and bright and we were able to find everything we needed.
The owners are kind and helpful, they really showed interest in us while we were staying.
We would recommend this cottage to anyone. We had a great time and we loved England!

Glenn Reynolds discusses the comparative merits of Lowe's and Home Depot.
In my view, neither one can hold a candle to McKnight's Hardware on East Bessemer Street in Greensboro, especially if you've got a tricky home repair project that requires hardware expertise.
Though McKnight's is an old, family-owned hardware store, the staff is very high-tech. Service people walk the floor with little headsets on, and will ask you immediately if they can help you find something. They know EXACTLY where everything is -- or if they don't, they radio someone who does. If you tell them you're just browsing, they'll leave you alone, and if you need advice, they're usually pretty knowledgeable. By now, most of the staff recognize me when I come in.
They also sell Carrhart clothing along with hunting equipment in a corner of the store that is decorated with animal head trophies. It's where I bought my wife's Christmas present this year (a 20-gague shotgun).
It's not a huge store, but they seem to have a lot of stuff -- just not things like lighting, rugs, and major appliances. The only real downside is that they're closed on Sundays, when I like to do most of my hardware-related puttering.

The Best Hardware Store
Posted by David Wharton at Tuesday, April 26, 2005

- joated said...
I do love the smell of a small hardware store! I can go in to buy some nails and end up walking up and down the aisles just browsing like I do in the library. There is always some new gadget or gizmo that I have to pick up and handle.
Usually there's an owner/clerk whith whom you can get into a discussion about the merits of item A versus item B. It's a great way to spend an hour or two. - 4:03 PM
here's an anthem to go with the thread....
East Asheville Hardware by David Wilcox
...Always go to East Asheville Hardware
Before you go to Lowe's
You'll help to keep them open
I'm worried they might close
From the stiff competition
From the national conglomerate
With the full page ad
in the color section of the Sunday paper supplement
and stacks of plastic swimming pools
and seven brands of power tools
and rows and rows of registers
all having nice days
But no, you go, he said to me with light around his face
He said, You go first to that age-old place
To that old wooden door
that you have to close behind you
To the wide-board wooden floor
worn down soft
To the real thing
Good advice, quality at a fair price
And know that they know how deep the frost goes here. - 4:45 PM
David, like Greensboro, Port Orchard, WASHINGTON has a great hardware store that kicks butt when matched up against the big box stores. Mclendon Scott ACE Hardware is not unlike your McKnight's store. What sets them apart from the big box stores is 'CUSTOMER SERVICE". Any store that forgets customer service will be doomed to mediocrity. I love and support my local ACE hardware store.
same for A & A Trading Post in Littleton, CO
There's a TruValue hardware store in Gassaway, West Virginia ... creaky wood floors, dusty bins of things dating back decades. The owner is young lady named Margie who has yet to disappoint in terms of her knowledge of hardware.
One thing I've often wondered ... the cost of the inventory in a hardware store must be astronomical. Some it turns very infrequently. It's a cash flow business ... what's turning rapidly that makes up for the stuff that sits on the shelf for years? - 5:04 PM
I find our local plumbing supply store much preferable to the local Home Despot. Much better selection, knowledgeable employees, happy to help you find what you need and willing to sell even a single washer if that's whatyou need.
Up in New England, the Vermont Alliance of Independent Country Stores has a website that makes it easier to find local general stores. Are there any equivalent organizations and/or websites in other parts of the country?
- Martha Powell said...
In Dallas, Texas, the best hardware store is Elliott's Hardware. Retired guys at the door direct you to the aisle where you find an employee expert who shows you the exact thing you need. And they have terrific items like dental tools and meat grinders and kitchen fairies. Once, a dimwit at Home Depot referred me to Elliott's because he couldn't imagine what kind of drill bit I'd need to drill through ceramic tile. Duh. A masonry bit!
- opine6 said...
Home Depot's customer service (or lack thereof), leaves a lot to be desired.
I purchased a washer/dryer on Dec 9 for my son's Christmas. It was supposed to be free delivery. Turns out, I had to apply for a delivery refund through a third party. Problem is HD didn't send me any paperwork to apply for the refund. After 8 phone calls and one nasty letter, I finally got my refund on the 10th of April-FOUR MONTHS LATER.
My experience with Lowes has been good.
I live in a small town with two hardware stores and I make purchases there also. - 9:26 PM
- Joe Killian said...
Since it didn't strike anyone else as odd I'm going to go ahead and laugh at the fact that you bought your wife a shotgun for Christmas.
I'm assuming she's a hunting enthusiast or something - so good for you - but it just struck me as funny. If my father - a Marine - had ever bought my mother a weapon....oh geez... - 11:05 PM
I purchased a Pella storm door at Lowes last spring. I also paid $88 for installation. The sub who came out to do the installation for Lowes refused to install the storm door because the brick molding around the door casing needed to be fired-out. I offered to pay the guy for the additional labor; however, he still refused. I went to Lowes to get a refund on my $88 labor charge. The manager appeared confused as to why the sub refused to do the install. He offered to send a different sub out. I accepted. The second sub also refused to do the install. Anyway, got the refund. My father- in-law finally ended up installing the storm door in about an hour one Sunday afternoon. So much for Lowe's customer service.

Sounds like Swaim Hardware in Paris, TX. If they don't have it, it's not available. I'd sure hate to do an inventory of that place, though.

And don't forget Greensboro's Holliday Hardware, on Spring Garden Street just west of Chapman. A great store with wonderful personal service and a vast collection of hardware in a tiny place. And you used to be able to walk through the world's narrowest door, into the store next door (which was Holliday Shoe Repair).
Pleasant's Hardware in Richmond, Virginia. These folks have seen it all and can finish your sentences for you. Great knowledge, service, and inventory. And nice folks too.
- Rusty Sheridan said...
Lowe's all the way, baby. There's a saleswoman that works in the flooring department at the Lowe's on Battleground that is H-O-T. Smokin' hot. Her name is Rachel, and I think I love her.
- Rob said...
Reading this post (and ALL the comments) reminded me of the hardware store of my child hood. It was an ACE dealer with asile of bind fill of nut, bolts, screws and any manner of fastener required.
The best hardware store (and the only one I'm aware of) on the North side of Asheboro, NC is Hammerhead's. I've been in once so far and they had exactly what I wanted (Dry Gas treatment) and showed me every size available. I was in and out in about 5 mins total. Can't get that at Home Despot or SLowe's. - 11:22 AM

At the start of the season, The Independent conducted an exclusive interview with Liverpool striker Luis Suarez.
In it, he told Pete Jenson: "If you saw me a few years ago you would know that I have improved a lot but I know I still have some way to go. I am 25 years old, I know I don't need to do the things I used to do any more because it makes things worse for me and for the team."
At the weekend, Suarez returned to the headlines for all the wrong reasons after he bit the arm of Chelsea defender Branislav Ivanovic.
Suarez's words, and his explanation for his on pitch demeanour, provide a fascinating insight into the mind of the striker.

It is nearly 3:15am, I have been awake for an hour and a half and instead of working on my vast number of Christmas projects, I have been sitting in front of the computer playing a game. I just want to sleep and I cannot. We had snow yesterday evening that is supposed to be followed by freezing rain and sleet. Nice. Anyway, they have been scraping the streets for hours and I guess that is what woke me. Every time I tried to go back to sleep I would begin to think about Christmas gifts that I have not yet purchased, sewing projects that are half finished and quilts that need to AT LEAST be pieced by Christmas.
Half asleep, I am afraid to sew as I would probably run a needle over my finger. I don't want to cut because only goodness knows what kind of damage I might do with a rotary cutter.
And so, I sit in front of the computer like a zombie. Accomplishing nothing. And just now, I rubbed the side of my nose and a piece of clear, rubbery plastic flew off my glasses and they don't sit correctly on my face.

My sympathy coming your way. I went through a couple of months of the no-sleep blues a while back. I read a lot of books during that time-the sewing machine makes too much noise in my small house.
The tree looks really beautiful and the doll clothes are darling. Hope you get some good rest soon.

"Murphy was an optimist!"
Oh Dem Picky Eaters December 28, 2008 5:42 pm
Posted by Doug McCaughan in : Daily Life, Family, Of Being DadOn days like today, I wish the kids would just let me buy mass quantities (anyone remember mass quantities?) from Taco Bell. Oh thing is I'd end up eating it all myself and they'd starve. Of course, if I do homemade tacos most of them will eat.
I really want to bring some variety to the table but am torn between going with the safe bet and getting food into them versus working hard on a new dish to have noses upturned while everyone turns to Ramen. I'll end up doing one experimental dish every week or two just because I'm motivated to get away from the same ol' same old. Think I need to run to the store and at least buy tea.

Great climb, and as of right now, my most favorite at Dixon. Good Exposure, definitely rated R if you choose to lead. Lots and lots of trash and graffiti. I think the amount of broken glass should up the rating of this climb. Perhaps a clean up needs to be organized.... |

Very fun Climb to warm up on and you can't get a better view of Escondido. Hope this helps you find and climb this route. |

As in Portland (2010) and Lisbon (2011), the last day of the USK Syposium in Santo Domingo coincided with a World Wide Sketchcrawl. About 100 urban sketchers, including 5 from Texas, converged on the lively Parque Colon to capture impressions of the place and people. I completed this sketch of the plaza, which was later bought at the USK silent auction by Shari Blaukopf (the sketch, not the plaza). Make plans now for next summer's symposium. Details are yet to be announced, but a memorable time is guaranteed.

Alcazar de Colón (1510-1512) - Santo Domingo - DR
Built by Christopher Columbus's son Diego. Was the center of the Spanish court in the Americas. The Palace hosted the legenday Spanish explorers Hernan Cortés, Francisco Pizarro and Ponce de León.

The "common" pencil. Common as -- well, perhaps not common as dirt. But certainly common as a No. 2 yellow school pencil, right?
Pen and ink are experiencing a well-deserved resurgence among sketchers and visual journalists, and the lowly pencil has taken a back seat. But it certainly wasn't always that way.
In the latest article in my "Tools of the Trade" series, I explore the history (and adventures) of the unpretentious pencil. And, if you'd like to know more about it's connection to Napoleon, or it's role in exploring the American West please feel free to give it a read. Tools of the Trade #2 - Plumbago, Napoleon and a No. 2 Pencil
Fordson Tractor, Stehekin, WA, USA
Oh, and as to where the "common" No. 2 yellow school pencil originated -- it was originated in the late 19th century by the Koh-I-Noor Hardtmuth company of Czechoslovakia to distinguish their use of the finest premium grade of graphite in the world, which was imported at great expense from China. (Yellow was an imperial color in Mandarin China.)
So, is the pencil "under-appreciated"? Yes. "Unassuming"? I'll go along with that. "Common"? I don't think so. How about you?

Departure 4pm, 7pm, 8pm...sketch
As you already know Santo Domingo was a huge success and loads of fun. Getting out of town...not so much. The upside of delayed flights is sketching in the departure area. The lady in this sketch on the left with the droopy hair had a friend who arrived after this sketch. Her friend pulled a pint of rum and some chocolates out of her purse and they quietly had a nice visit and a few shots using the cap of the bottle for a shot glass. You see all kinds of things when you sit and observe.

Another great Urban Sketchers Symposium!
Urban Sketchers Texas had 5 representatives at the 3rd International Urban Sketchers Symposium in Santo Domingo...that's got to be some kind of record. The schedule was grueling, but had plenty of opportunities for exploring and socializing. The workshops consistently pushed us beyond our limits to new heights. As an example, compare my sketch of the Parque Colon made before the symposium, and the one made during the "Improvising with Lines and Colors" workshop by Inma Serrano and Orling Dominguez. I think the results speak for themselves.

Sketchcrawl in the Heights
Yesterday was the first little bit of dry weather we've had in days, but with my sketching friends away in Santo Domingo I was on my own. This little Victorian cottage has always intrigued me and it's only a short distance from my house.

the bonfires of Sant John. Alacant. Spain
My last sketches in Spain.
One of the many monumets who are called Bonfires (Hogueras or Fogueres). They made of wood, cardboard, mud, paintings and nowadays of cork and polyurethane too. Burned in a very beautiful and emotive act called "La crema" (The burning), marks the end of the festival.

Back from South America
Patti and I have just returned from our 3-week tour of Brazil and Peru, visiting world class cities, cultural sites and iconic works of landscape architecture. It was a unforgettable experience; I'll be posting images over the next few weeks.
The Kombi vans, featuring all manner of refreshments, are a ubiquitous site across southeastern Brazil. I was particularly taken by the happy coconut drinks atop this one. |
This was drawn from my hotel window in Petropolis, Brazil, in the mountain highlands north of Rio de Janeiro. |

Texas sketcher in España
D and I recently returned from our 20th anniversary trip to Spain. Thanks to Thomas (fellow TX sketcher and Madrileños) for getting a little sketch group together in Madrid. A couple of days after we arrived it was off to sketch. What a great way to start off a trip with local "friends". Thomas even arranged for me to join a group in Barcelona the next week. I'll post more images as time permits but I do have to catch up on the work I missed while traveling. Luckily the light mist (the rain in Spain) didn't last long and we sketched from a park across from the cathedral.

Alcohol Awareness Month: Avoid OWI, DUI, and DWI's
You may not have heard, but April is National Alcohol Awareness Month. During the month of April the National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence (the NCADD, for short) is promoting programs that are aimed at increasing the awareness of the general public of facts and figures related to alcohol, alcohol abuse, and alcoholism. By building awareness, NCADD hopes to curb much of the negative behavior associated with alcohol consumption such as drinking and driving. But this month is about more than avoiding OWI's, DUI's, and DWI's.
Why it's Important to Support Alcohol Awareness Month
According to NCADD, alcohol is the most dangerous controlled substance to young people, due largely to its widespread use and ease of accessibility. They report that each year roughly 6,500 people under the age of 21 die from alcohol-related accidents and even more are seriously injured. They also stress that alcohol use by young people is directly related to higher rates of traffic fatalities, deaths, suicides, violence, and educational failure, among other serious issues.
While it seems like a lot of alcohol related issues affect only the drinker, there a number of studies and a broad set of data to illustrate that underage drinking, alcohol abuse, and alcoholism all affect society in a much broader sense. Improper alcohol use has been shown to directly affect public (and personal) safety and has even been linked to an increased financial burden on tax payers in terms of prosecuting DUI's, OWI's, and DWI's. That cost, combined with the cost of repairing damaged public property, DUI, OWI, and DWI safety checkpoints, and costs associated with probation enforcement (such as ignition interlock devices and electronic monitoring ankle bands) has been show to reach as much as $114 billion per year. Costs associated with underage drinking rack up an additional $62 billion, according to the NCADD website.
In addition to helping prevent underage drinking, helping young people remain safe, and curbing the development of alcoholism, promoting alcohol awareness month can also help bring these costs down and reduce the tax burden on tax payers. By helping others, we help ourselves.
Alcohol Awareness Month Goes Beyond Young Adults and Teens
Alcoholism can affect people of any age, but some studies have found that teens who take their first drink before they are 15 are four times more likely to develop alcoholism and other alcohol-related disorders. Alcohol Awareness Month aims to help recovering alcoholics as well as prevent teens and young adults from developing the disease through campaigns aimed at raising awareness of the signs of alcoholism, resources available to combat the disease, and tips for helping loved ones who may be struggling with alcoholism themselves.
Information about Alcohol Awareness Month
As we've said, there's more to it than preventing an OWI, DUI, or DWI—though that's an important part of it. Alcohol Awareness Month is about getting involved in your community as well as with your friends and family. It's about getting properly educated about alcohol use and safety. So where can you go to get the information you need to talk to someone you love, be it a friend, husband, wife, or child, about alcohol use? We've pulled together some of the best online resources to help you out.
Alcohol Education, Abuse Prevention, and Community Organization Resources
Do you need to talk with someone about their use of alcohol? Whether you need to confront someone about potential alcoholism, or whether you need to talk to your teen about alcohol use, these sites will steer you in the right direction.
- Madd.org – the home of Mothers Against Drunk Driving. Resources for talking to teens about alcohol use and drunk driving. Also provides victim services and resources.
- NCADD.org—National Council for Alcohol and Drug Dependence. Resources for all kinds of substance addiction, sections for both parents and teens, and a section of the site dedicated specifically to alcohol use.
- Responsibility.org – The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility, funded by distillers, offers information on drunk driving statistics by state.
- NIAAA – the National Institute on Alcoholism and Alcohol Abuse. A site full of studies and research relating to alcohol use and abuse.

Rainbows make me feel depressed, as does sunshine.
A rainbow with a keystone. So that's how they're made.
WOW! My Mia loved this image, she is so in love with rainbows. Once, we were on our way back from Kyneton having visited my cousin and we followed a rainbow. I know people say you cannot ever get to the end of one, but we were truly following the end of one...no pot of god was found :(
You are too black for your own good Reuben.Ha Brian, it does look a bit like that. The little people did it.And if it is a full rainbow Cazzie, are there two pots of gold, one at each end. I have been very close to the end of a rainbow, but obviously not quite there.
Imperfect it may be but at least you managed to achieve a stitch. Well done.
Ah, I have done some perfect stitches Victor, but the rainbow was really hard and rushed. Thanks.
Love it, Andrew!
Ta Jayne.
No pot of gold, a rainbow doesn't have an end, if the earth wasn't in the way of the photo it would be a complete circle.
I bet you blabbed to your sister that Santa Claus wasn't real either Jahteh.

Has Matt Damon eaten his shoe yet over his 'never been in a public school' claim about the Bush family?
Tweet |
**Written by Doug Powers
In a recent sole-searching interview with CNN's Jake Tapper, public school advocate Matt Damon tried to explain why he sends his kids to private school. His answer was Jay Carney-worthy: "…the private school that I send my kids to is the thing closest to the public school that I went to that I could find." Damon also claimed that the public schools in Los Angeles aren't progressive enough (pause for laughter).
Tapper asked Damon about Jeb Bush calling out his opposition to school choice while sending his kids to private schools, and Damon said "I'd eat my shoe if he [Jeb Bush] could name a Bush that ever even walked into a public school."
Prepare to start chomping on those loafers, Matt:
@charliespiering Both Jeb and George went to public elementary schools, right? Think Jeb also graduated from University of Texas.
— Byron York (@ByronYork) November 15, 2013
@charliespiering Laura Bush was a public school librarian. W twins went to public high school in Texas. Damon should eat more than one shoe
— omid moghadam (@omidmoghadam) November 15, 2013
Protip for Damon: Rockports please the palate with beef bouillon-esque flavor, and putting pasta sauce on the laces will make it easier to pretend it's spaghetti.
At about the 1:05 mark of the video is an epic "homina homina homina" moment of hypocrisy spin glory:

The other day, my daughter was snoozing away in her crib and typically there is no way to tell what she, or anybody else for that matter, is dreaming about. However, this go around it was quite evident. Before I woke her up she was mumbling in her sleep which she does from time to time. Usually when she talks it is nothing more than a bunch of gibberish followed by one or two intelligible words. I did the same thing when I was learning French. Before she woke up she produced a sentence of gibberish followed by, "Cookies...Mmmmm." There was little doubt as to what she was dreaming about.
Yes, I gave her a cookie when she woke up.

The Moms Club Revisited
John and Zack were sitting in Zack's room watching a Mom porn flick. "Hey Zack "I'll bet your mom would look great doing one of these". "For sure dude but she's been the most uptight bitch in the world these days". "Probably need a whole lot of cock". I'm sure, since my dads never home she does nothing but bitch at me all the time".
Zack's mother Jennifer was an olive skin beauty; she was small 5 and 115lbs. She had 34c breasts with large very sensitive nipples. Short blond hair and she wore clothes which accentuated her best assets. When she entered a room John and all his friends were squirming because she gave everyone a hard on.
John dad was a pilot and was gone most of the time so she and John were alone most of the weekends and many nights.
"How about we get her stoned and fucking her"? The idea was good but there were many things to work out. They heard a car in the driveway and saw Jennifer get out.
"Better turn the movie off before she comes in and catches us". I'm already working on it".
Jennifer came in the kitchen and yelled for her son and both boys came down. "Get the packages out of the car and bring them in here! One out of here being able to hear Zack turned to John "God what a fucken bitch". "You are so right".
Once the packages were in the kitchen Zack left and John headed back to his room. He was watching as Jennifer poured vodka in water glass and took a pain pill out of her bags looked quickly to be sure her son was not watching and swallowed. She went about putting things away and after about 15 minutes started humming softly.
John now had the makings of a plan, he called Zack and laid out how he was going to precede the call ended with "I'll either call in the morning or send pictures to you later".
John came down and sat at the table, "You seem in a good mood mom"? "Do I"? "I have no idea why your father is taking the Rome to Tokyo flight". "The money is great but he'll be gone over week".
This would be the ideal time to put the plan into motion. "Zack is coming over after dinner to study with me, ok"? "Yes" John went upstairs and told Zack to stop by Jerome's before he came over and get five ecstasy's pills. The first part of the plan was working, now he watched as Jennifer poured another water glass full of Vodka and went about preparing dinner.
All John had to do was to figure out hoe to get the ecstasy into her, with any luck there will be an opportunity soon. As they ate John attempted to make small talk about his day and what she had done. No sooner had they finished the Zack showed up. "Hi Mrs. R how are you"? "Oh hi Zack, you're looking good". "Thanks, you ready john"?
They went up to John room and started the second part of the plan. The plan was simple wait about a half hour then go into the den to watch TV with her and offer to get her a drink, then they would see of the X worked.
"Are you ready Zack"? "Let's get this started John". The guys went down stairs and there was Jennifer in a chair watching the news. The boys entered the room and sat on the floor. "Zack want a drink"? "Yes please and maybe your mom would like one as well". "Mom you want something"? "Yes matter of fact I'd like a vodka and cranberry". "I'm on it".
In the kitchen John took a crushed X and mixed it in with the vodka and cranberry got two sodas for him and Zack and returned to the TV.
The guys smiled at each other as Jennifer took a large swallow and kept watching TV. Both boys kept exchanging glances to see if the drug was having an effect, and within fifteen minutes or so they both realized she would rub her tit or slip her hand between her legs.
They both got up and headed to the kitchen, "Where you guys going"? Jennifer asked. "The kitchen for a snack" john replied. "Well I was keeping company with two very handsome men and they just left me flat. "No way Mrs. R but well be upstairs studying for a bit then we will back down".
They grabbed a few brownies and headed for John bedroom but left the door open a crack. It took ten minutes before Jennifer crept upstairs to eavesdrop on the conversation. John nodded to Zack she was at the top of the stairs so they could start the conversation.
"Well Zack how are you doing with the contest"? "Well three moms have given pictures and they are hot but we need at least one more before we decide". "John what about your mom"? "No she a prude, she would never let us take sexy pictures of her for the contest". "Well ok but if you asked her, it's a contest and the winner gets $100 bucks".
Jennifer got up and made noise as she got to the door knocked and opened it. Smiling she asked "So what are you guys doing, watching porn"? Zack spoke up "Not yet were discussing a contest were having". "What kind of contest"? "Hot moms posing in underwear in sexy poses contest". "Really, sounds like fun, John do you think I've got what it take to be a hot mom"? "You definitely do, you'll probably win hands down". "Why don't we go to my room and while I shower you guys put an outfit on the bed for me to wear". "Wait in Johns room with cameras ready and I'll been in for my photo shoot".
They headed to her room and she opened a draw and told them get me something and headed to the bathroom wiggling her ass a lot more then she should have. Showered and trim my pubic area, hair and some makeup and they'll be rock hard when I enter the room. She giggled as she thought if they can see through my panties they'll realize I'm a brunette. Back in her room she was feeling really horny; the outfit on the bed was a very sexy outfit. They had chosen a pink bra and matching thong with black stockings and heels. Wow not much to the imagination her.
She entered the room and both boys just looked at her with there mouths open. "Is this the desired look"? "Damn right it is", was John's response. For the next five minutes they shot pictures of her in very sexy poses. Finally she sat in the chair laughed, "I guess these are jerk off pictures right"? They sure are was Zack's response.
"Tell me honestly do you guys watch a lot of porn in here"? John smiled at Zack, "Daily mom why"? "Well I like porn perhaps we could watch a video some time".
"Mrs. R that would be great want to do it now"? "I sure do".
They got a Mom video on the screen and hit play. Jennifer looked over at they giggling and said, "Hay if I'm in my underwear both of you should be too". Both boys were down to there shorts quickly. Just about the time the video had the mom sucking two large cocks Jennifer noticed both guys had tents in there boxers.
"Can I ask you two a personal question"? In unison they relied "Yes" "When was the last time you jerked off"? Zack replied first, "Three days ago", John response was the same. Jennifer smiled, "So you're both telling me your ball are full to overflowing at this moment"? In unison they replied right! "Would like me to leave so you can relive yourselves"? "Or I can stay and you can relieve yourselves as the on screen they already are".
Jennifer's intentions seem clear so John spoke up, "Mom we would love you to stay you can watch and participate if you like". "We would both love to see your tits if you stay". "Well that can be arranged "Zack unhook my bra". As the bra fell away it was apparent she was horny as hell as her nipples were standing straight out. "Wow mom you're really hot" honey that's for sure".
The boys walked over and each one started sucking on a nipple, all she could do was moan with pure pleasure. Zack's hand moved into her panties and found her clit; he started rubbing it slowly in a circular motion which was driving her crazy. There was a fire starting to burn between her legs. Standing up from the chair she grabbed each boys cock, "First close the door, secondly what happens in this room stays in this room". Both boys grinned yes was the response. "Now lets go over to johns bed and get comfortable.
Zack looked at her "Mrs. R., she held up a finger in here I'm Jen, got it"! "Yes Jen would you take off your panties for us"? "My pleasure" she hooked her thumbs in the waistband and pulled them off. "Now is that better and where were we".
They started rubbing her clit and sucking her nipples, the fire between her legs was growing, "I would really like a cock now, please". Zack got between her legs and started rubbing the head of his 7 inch cock on her pussy lips. A guttural moan escaped from her. The head slipped in, "Jen you have a really tight pussy", thanks honey put it in deeper please". John climbed up on her chest and put his cock head on her lips, she opened her mouth in went the head and she was sucking hungrily.
Jen knew she was going to climax and took her sons entire cock down her throat as she has a very intense orgasm. Slowly she let it slip out to her lips as her pussy spasms were milking the cock in her intensely. John cock twitched and she knew he was about to cum. The first splash of cum shot so far into her mouth it went down her throat quickly his cock continued to splash cum in her mouth for at least five of six splashes as she swallowed twice to get the load down. Zack was now pounding her tight pussy, John rolled off her completely spent she was pushing her pussy up hard as she could to meet his downward pushing. The fire between her legs was incontrollable. The orgasm would be gigantic, she pulled Zack's head and shoulder down on her dug her finger into his back, put her mouth in the crook of his neck and felt a wave of lustful pleasure sweep over her. Zack grabbed her ass and gave one deep push and she felt hot cum filling her pussy canal. "Oh yes fuck me baby pump your load in me, yes, yes, yes, she was moaning.
It took several minutes for her breathing to return to normal. "Jen that is one great tight pussy you have there". "Thank you Zack you have a very nice cock as well", "For the record my very tight pussy is very wet and sloppy at the moment".
John smiles,"Mom I'd really be up for sloppy seconds". Looking over there was her son with a very hard cock. "Ok baby but it's not going to be a tight for you". "Not a problem". John got between her legs his cock slid easily between her pussy lips and he pushed in until there pubic mounds met. Zack climbed on her chest and she kissed the head of his cock before swallowing it. My god there both hard again so soon. John took up a slow deep pumping motion which was causing her to feel the fire building to build between her legs again as she sucked lovingly on the cock that had just given her the best orgasm of her life. They were in no hurry as both boys had drained a good portion of there balls in her so the fucking went on for a good long time.
Zack stiffen and pulled his cock to her lips as the cum started to splash out of his cock, he filled her mouth twice. Looking into his eyes she showed him his second load of cum and swallowed. "All gone she muttered". John pace was now in high and she grabbed him close to her, "come on baby shot a load in me. They both grunted here orgasm was great and the flow of cum going into her pussy felt beyond belief.
After several moments with there breathing back to normal, she asked them. "Would you guys like to go into my bed, it's bigger". All three got up and headed for the master bedroom. As she walked she was making squishing noises from her sloppy pussy. The boys jumped on the bed and at that moment s blob of cum popped out of her. Scooping it up with her finger she placed it on her tongue winked at them and swallowed.
"Come to bed mom" she did.
She woke up the next morning unable to believe what she had done. Both boys were still asleep on either side of her. Shaking the cobwebs out she wondered how many times they fucked me last night. Now what to do? They opened there eyes and she was almost instantly greeted but two hard cocks.
"Jen how about a good morning blow job"? For an instant she was infuriated but realized this was the cock that had given her the best orgasm of her life, she wasn't prepared to loose it. "If that's what my guys need I'm up for it", "I just hope cum isn't fattening".
She was in the kitchen making coffee when they came down dressed for school. "I hope you have a good day guys". We'll try was a unified response. They headed for the door. "Zack honey would you please come home with John to study"? "You want me too"? "Very much". "Then I'll see you this afternoon Jen".

Not a bad effort. Some grammar problems but a reading before posting will solve that. Even though she was drugged the sex was too quick and too short. More descriptions please. I'm sure part two will be much better.

Land Raider
The Land Raider (originally known as Land's Raider) is a heavy tank and transport used primarily by the Space Marines and Chaos Space Marines, but also by the Adeptus Mechanicus[9b], Inquisition[4a] and even especially influential Rogue Traders.[11a] It is capable of operating in virtually any kind of planetary environment. Its hull fully isolates its occupants from the environment and provides life support functions, allowing operation on inhospitable and airless planets from complete vacuum to on ocean floor.[11b]
The Land Raider is designed to move at a good speed while still carrying heavy armaments as well as a number of warriors within its armoured hull. It is a Standard Template Construct vehicle, like many others in the armouries of Imperial forces and has been modified several times since its rediscovery. The standard modern pattern of Land Raider however is known as the Land Raider Phobos[9a] which provided with non the less standard M32 "Cyclops" class battle cogitator.[11b]
The Land Raider has its origins in the Dark Age of Technology, when humankind expanded out of its home system. Its construction method was incorporated into the great STC system, allowing it to be built locally by colonists even if they lacked any great technical knowledge. With the widespread breakdown of human civilization during the Age of Strife, production of the vehicle ceased.[4a]
During the Great Crusade the Land Raider STC design was rediscovered, allowing their manufacture. The discoverer is commonly believed to be the Techno-archaeologist Magos Arkhan Land who, at the very birth of the Imperium, is said to have rediscovered the STC designs hidden beneath the surface of Mars. These vehicles were incorporated into the arsenals of the Imperium's forces, used by both the Space Marine Legions and the Imperial Army. Such was the demand for the Land Raider that an entire Forge World, Anvilus 9, was devoted entirely to Land Raider production, supplying thousands upon thousands of Land Raiders to the Emperor's holy forces.[4a]
However, at the outset of the Horus Heresy, Anvilus 9 along with other Forge Worlds were seized by the Dark Mechanicum aligned with Horus, while others chose to secede from the Imperium and remain neutral. This would prove to be a terrible blow to the Loyalists as their supply of Land Raiders began to dry up, especially since, in sufficient numbers, Land Raiders can take on and destroy even Titans.[4a] With the dark clouds of the rebellion drawing closer to Terra, the Emperor ordered that all Land Raiders still in loyalist service were to be transferred and used exclusively by the Legiones Astartes, who were at the forefront of the fighting. The Emperor was never able to annul the order, and consequently, even after the Heresy, the use of the Land Raider remained exclusive to the Space Marines.[2]
The Land Raider in the 41st millennium
Land Raiders are used by Space Marines as well as by their counterparts in the Traitor Legions, who have continued to employ the vehicle after their defeat and exile.[Needs Citation]
Since its rediscovery over ten thousand years ago, newly discovered STC information and modifications to the original design have produced different marks and variants. Most of these variants have been recognised by the Priesthood of Mars. Some of these are the Land Raider Crusader, Land Raider Helios, Land Raider Prometheus, Land Raider Ares, Land Raider Redeemer[Needs Citation] and Land Raider Terminus Ultra.[11b]
According to the organizational guidelines laid down by the Codex Astartes, the Land Raider is only used by the 1st Company of a Space Marine chapter. However, some less orthodox chapters are known to use it more widely. The Salamanders chapter uses an altered version of the Codex Astartes with 12 squads in the 1st company instead of 10, increasing the maximum number of Land Raiders available to 12.[Needs Citation]
Land Raiders may also be formed into Armoured Spearheads, designed to punch holes through enemy lines and allow penetration into their rear areas.[Needs Citation]
The Land Raider is armed with a hull-mounted twin-linked heavy bolter and two side sponsons each with twin-linked lascannons. It may also be fitted with a pintle mounted storm bolter. Sponson weapons are controlled through a slaved remote targeting system, and aimed through multi-spectral optic periscopes located around the turret rings. The lascannons are of the Godhammer Kz9.76 design, requiring replacement barrels after 2000 shots.[4d]
The Land Raider uses a composite armour created by bonding layers in huge, high-pressure cookers, giving it a level of protection incomparable to most other Imperial vehicles. The first armour layer, in addition to structural supports, is constructed of adamantine. The second is a titanium/plasteel composite used to reinforce strategic locations, such as the assault ramp, front glacis and hatch doors. The next is a thermo-plas fibre mesh to absorb and dissipate high-energy laser weapons, followed by the first of two ceramite layers, designed to ablate against extreme heat and melta weapons.[4a] When combined, this armouring makes the Land Raider virtually immune to heavy artillery like Battle Cannons.[5]
Power for the Land Raider is provided for by a Mars pattern adaptable thermic combustor reaction engine, situated in the rear of the vehicle. It is kept cool by a nitro-ammonium cooling system, and protected from malfunction and Daemonic possession by Adeptus Mechanicus manufacturing sigils and purity seals. The engine provides power for all of the Land Raider's systems and can propel it up to an on-road speed of 55km/h.[4a]
Every Land Raider is equipped with automatic control systems known as a Machine Spirit. The Machine Spirit assists the crew in operating the tank and, in extreme circumstances, can operate the vehicle on its own.[4a] Perhaps the most famous example of this was Rynn's Might which, despite lacking any crew, proceeded to kill an Ork Warboss and his followers before eventually being destroyed.[Needs Citation]
The Land Raider is hermetically sealed, allowing it to operate in outer space or at the bottom of an ocean.[1] It also includes atmospheric sampling equipment, an air filtration and purification unit, and rad-counters for operation in hazardous environments. Each Land Raider also contains significant command and control equipment. The commander is able to monitor his unit's bio-status and other information through Individual squad status screens, using information transmitted by their power armour through the vehicle's communications dish. The commander also has access to a holographic tactical display and can directly interface with the Machine Spirit.[4a]
For security purposes, all controls are gene-coded to prevent their unauthorized use by the enemy.[4a] Other standard equipment includes a Searchlight and Smoke Launchers. Additional upgrades include Dozer Blades, Extra Armour, a Hunter-killer Missile, and a Multi-Melta.[Needs Citation]
Also the distinctive feature common to many patterns of Land Raider is the consecrated 'aquila' track links. The twelve consecutive track links standing for the twelve High Lords of the Imperium and the thirteenth bears the double-headed eagle symbol, that represents the Emperor himself. So during the campaigns of the Space Marines a planet's surface is repeatedly stamped with the authority of the Emperor as if he himself marched there.[11c]
The Land Raider has an impressive carrying capacity, either 10 Space Marines in Power Armour or 5 in Terminator Armour.[10] Since it is hermetically sealed, the Land Raider has no fire ports for the embarked troops to use. The Space Marines can exit from three access points, two hatches located on both sides of the vehicle or a special front assault ramp for disembarking troops straight into combat.[4d]

The Land Raiders in the service of the Traitor Legions are ten thousand year old machines, the same Land Raiders the Legions took with them when they fled into the Eye of Terror following the defeat of their rebellion. In place of the Machine Spirit is a daemonic force which assumes control of the movement of the vehicle in the event the crew are in some way disabled, as well as assisting in the operation of the weapon systems.[3]
Named Land Raiders
- Cestus (Iron Hands)[4c]
- Eagle's Claw - of the Red Talons, fought with Traitors during the Battle of Amion[11b]
- Maximus (Ultramarines)[8a]
- Metallus Gravus (Iron Hands)[4c]
- Phraetus - of the Raptors. Fought in the Origo Blockade[4g]
- Rynn's Might (Crimson Fists)[8b]
- Voltar - of the Space Wolves[4h]
- The Land Raider strongly resembles the first tanks ever created which were designed and fielded by the British in World War I.
- The standard Land Raider (Phobos) armed with Twin-linked Lascannons and Heavy Bolters is sometimes referred to as the Land Raider Godhammer. It is so named for the Lascannons it mounts, which are known as the Godhammer pattern. This name is used mostly on online forums. In-universe, it is never referred to as such.
