|Irken Technology
|First Appearance
|Bad, Bad Rubber Piggy
The Hunter-Destroyer Machine is an Irken Military Robot that, as its title suggests, is designed to relentlessly hunt a target, and try to destroy it.
Sitting upon two dual tank-treads, the main body of the Hunter-Destroyer is composed of a relatively round torso, with a 'block' for a head and a single blue 'eye' or type of weapon. To the sides are its two arms below two similarly blue lights, possibly eyes again or weapons, with the arms ending in two jointed claws, with no thumbs. Atop the shoulders of the machine are dual rocket pods, and on the right shoulder there is an additional unknown weapon.
Known Uses
Zim attempted to use this robot in "Bad, Bad Rubber Piggy" as another plan to get rid of Dib - this time by killing him in the past via a temporal object replacement device. Zim planned to send the Hunter-Destroyer into the past to destroy Dib before he became a threat to his plans (which, like most of his plans, made little to no sense, as Zim could simply destroy him with this robot in the present just as easily). However, this would create a time travel paradox, as GIR tried and failed to explain. He stated that if the mech destroyed Dib, then he would never have been Zim's enemy, so then the Irken wouldn't have had to send the mech to destroy Dib in the past, but Dib would be his enemy and the machine would be sent; GIR's head exploded shortly after, due to not comprehending what he just said.
Paradoxes aside, the robot eventually proved to be incompatible with the timeline anyway, and was ejected from the time vortex and into a wall, so GIR's toy rubber piggies had to be used instead.
- Based on the time travel theme observed in the episode, it is reasonable to assume that the Hunter-Destroyer is a parody of the Hunter-Killer from the Terminator films.
- The Hunter-Destroyer is not seen in any other episode, and it is not known what Zim did with it afterward.

A Randomised Phase III Trial of Highly Conformal Hypofractionated Image Guided ("Stereotactic") Radiotherapy (HypoRT) Versus Conventionally Fractionated Radiotherapy (ConRT) for Inoperable Early Stage I Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (CHISEL)
This is a multicentre randomised phase III trial comparing hypo-fractionated
("stereotactic') radiotherapy with conventional radiotherapy with or without chemotherapy in
patients with inoperable stage 1 peripherally located non-small cell lung cancer.
The accepted standard of care for stage 1 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), that is, T1 or
T2 tumors that have not metastasised to the regional lymph nodes, is surgical resection.
However, many patients with lung cancer have significant cardiovascular and respiratory co
morbidities which render them unfit for an operation. For these patients, the standard of
care is radiotherapy - conventional fractionation (ConRT) which is administered as 20-30
fractions over a period of four to six weeks. This reduces the likelihood of long term
damage to incidentally irradiated normal tissues compared with non-fractionated treatment.
Local failure for this method, varies considerably between reports ranging from 6-70% with a
median value of 40% using a current best practice for inoperable NSCLC dose of about 60 Gy.
Concomitant chemotherapy in addition to CF improves local progression free survival by 16%
at two years compared with radiotherapy alone.
Highly conformal hypo-fractionated image guided radiotherapy is an emerging technically
complex method for precision irradiation of stage 1 NSCLC using doses with a higher
biological effect than can be achieved with standard treatment techniques. Although rates of
local control using hypo-fractionation appear greater, there are risks with serious late
toxicity. However, there is recent evidence that 54-57Gy delivered in 3 fractions can be
delivered safely with no excessive toxicity, provided the tumour has a peripheral location,
the chest wall is not included in the high dose volume and the treatment plan is highly
conformal. Although hypo-fractionation under the above conditions appears to be tolerable,
and is associated with high levels of local control, the results of a small number of phase
II trials cannot be regarded as sufficient evidence to recommend it as the standard of care
for inoperable stage I NSCLC.
This randomised phase III trial tests whether highly conformal hypo-fractionated image
guided radiotherapy for peripherally located inoperable T1 and T2a NSCLC using a dose of 54
Gy in three fractions results in superior control of disease at the primary site compared
with standard care consisting of conventionally fractionated radiotherapy with or without
concomitant chemotherapy.
Treatment summary: Investigational arm - radical radiotherapy to a total dose of 54 Gy in 3
fractions of 18 Gy each, delivered weekly on days 0, 7 and 14 with a maximum deviation of
+/- 2 days from the specified time allowed. Conventional arm - radical radiotherapy to a
total dose of 60-66 Gy in 30-33 daily 2 Gy fractions over 6 weeks, with or without
chemotherapy consisting of weekly carboplatin at an AUC of 2 and paclitaxel 45 mg/m2.
Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment
Time to Local Failure
Completion of the two year follow up period for all patients.

In 2008, USAA served as a haven for its 6.8 million members, many under economic pressure, who expressed their confidence in USAA as their trusted financial advisor - not just their insurer
San Antonio, TX (PRWEB) April 8, 2009
In a year rocked by the implosion of the financial markets and a record number of natural disasters, USAA increased its net worth, maintained strong liquidity and profitability and paid out $857 million in dividends, distributions, bank rebates and rewards.
In addition, the company remained one of only two property and casualty insurers to retain the highest possible financial strength ratings from all three national rating agencies: A.M. Best, Moody's and Standard & Poor's.
The details are provided in USAA's just-published annual report, available at http://www.usaa.com/ReportToMembers.
In announcing its 2008 financial results, USAA - among the leading providers of financial services to the military community - said it had:
- Increased net worth by 1.4 percent, to $14.6 billion
- Achieved net income of $423 million
- Grew owned assets to a record $68 billion
- Returned $857 million to members in the form of dividends, distributions, bank rebates and rewards
- Increased membership by 385,000 to 6.8 million members
- Cut non-essential expenses while increasing employee productivity by 11 percent.
USAA credits the company's strong 2008 performance to the caliber of its members, its dedicated, mission-focused employees and a tradition of conservative fiscal management.
"In a very difficult year, USAA grew market share, maintained and enhanced our financial strength and net worth, and for the third year in a row, we were in the top two of Business Week's 'Customer Service Champ' awards," said USAA President and CEO Gen. Joe Robles, USA (Ret.).
"Our association is strong and growing, built on lifelong relationships with our members, conservative financial management and a culture of service," he said. "It's a business approach that's designed to endure the current challenges, and to achieve even greater success when economic conditions improve."
Customer service
USAA's focus on customer service combines a highly motivated workforce with extensive training and industry-leading technology platforms. USAA primarily engages its customers through its vast call center operations and robust online capabilities, including a new mobile web platform that has experienced phenomenal growth in adoption rates, with some 5.5 million logins in 2008.
While the company handled a record number of catastrophe claims in 2008, it significantly reduced the time to resolve them through streamlined claims, call center and self-service processes. These and other customer service initiatives resulted in USAA maintaining an overall 94 percent customer satisfaction rating and 96 percent customer retention for the year.
USAA also launched an aggressive cross-training program to deliver better service with fewer transferred calls, and flexibility to meet evolving needs, such as ramping up in the event of a natural disaster. In addition, a focused military recruiting program resulted in hiring 472 employees with military experience, representing 21 percent of all new hires in 2008.
"In 2008, USAA served as a haven for its 6.8 million members, many under economic pressure, who expressed their confidence in USAA as their trusted financial advisor - not just their insurer," said Robles. "We are better-positioned than most in our industry to weather the current economic downturn while continuing to deliver the highest quality service and solid financial performance that our members expect."
About USAA
USAA, a diversified financial services group of companies, is among the leading providers of financial planning, insurance, investments, and banking products to members of the U.S. military and their families. For the past three years, BusinessWeek magazine ranked USAA among the top two "Customer Service Champs," highlighting our legendary commitment of providing highly competitive financial products for 6.8 million members.

Agency: Adam and Eve
Client: John LewisJohn Lewis is launching its biggest ever TV advertising campaign to drive awareness of its 'Never Knowingly Undersold' proposition.
The six week campaign, costing £6m, is the first time the retailer has dedicated a TV and press campaign to its commitment to quality, price and service.
Created by Adam & Eve, the TV ad features a female character and the way in which she interacts with the brand throughout her life, starting as a young child through to becoming a grandparent.
The campaign reinforces the idea that John Lewis has made a lifelong commitment to give great quality, fair prices and excellent service to its customers.
"The key message the campaign conveys is that John Lewis is always there for you, whether you are setting up your first home, having a baby or just love shopping with us. We are there for all the important times, big or small." said Craig Inglis, Director of Marketing at John Lewis.
"For a long time Never Knowingly Undersold has been perceived as just a price promise, but it's more than that: it's about the total value we offer our customers, about the quality of the products we sell and the added value customers receive with the service our Partners offer."
He added, "This is unique to John Lewis and our customers have told us time and time again how important this is to them - now seems the perfect moment to reinforce this message."
The campaign, which consists of one 90-second, one 60-second and four 10-second TV ads, also features two John Lewis Partners (staff) - delivery drivers Brian Rees and Noel Breen - who appear in the TV ad delivering a sofa to the main female character when she moves into her first apartment.
With executions in national press supporting the TV, the campaign aims to build on previous print advertising for Never Knowingly Undersold which launched last Autumn.
The music for the ad is a track by Fyfe Dangerfield of The Guillemots - titled 'She's Always a Woman', it was originally recorded by Billy Joel.

Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit 2
Review by devilsminion
"EA's thriller racer ports over to gamecube, is it fast?"
EA's biggest racing series is by far the Need for Speed series the name say's it all. This classic has now been ported to the GameCube causing some very excited racing fans to be excited. The game is a racer with an added touch of being chased by police. It has several modes available being the police is one and racing without them another and multi player. Sad to say it does not allow one player to be the cop the other the racer for some reason.
Graphics :
It is with much dismay that I have to say that the game is full of poor quality graphics. It is well known that poor graphics don't mean a poor game but I will elaborate more on that later. The cars are beautiful but that's the only eye candy you will see. The scenery is ok nothing special what really hurts this game is the frame rate. This game suffers from the worst frame rate as low as 15 never higher than 30 frames per second what happens is you lose all sense of speed and feel as though you are going very slow and causing you to miss short cuts altogether as they are gone by before you see them. Besides the cars themselves this game severely lacks in this department. Another disappointment is the fact the cars do not suffer damage why this is one can only guess since other games with similar cars do show damage.
I would give this a 5/10
Sound :
The sound is done fairly well. The music tracks are very good with a nice variety. The police broadcast over there cb's with you able to hear them a nice touch. The sirens are done well same with the sounds of the cars themselves. The tires squealing to the crashes the sounds give you a sense of realism.
I give this 8/10
Game play :
This game offers several modes of play. Allowing for different races with or without police. You can either go in tournament mode single race multi player. With these different modes it adds quite a bit of variety for a racer. The only complaint is the poor frame rate again not giving any sense of speed. You can become a cop chasing down the speeder you can call for back up, or maybe a road block. Getting tough well maybe you should call in the Helicopter or a spike strip. The option of this really adds to the police mode giving a sense of realism.
I give this a 8/10
Re playability :
The options of different modes of play really make this game excel in the replay value. With the option of multi player to races with or without police presence adds much. This is no a simple just try and beat the other guy racing game. Trying to stay ahead of the cops and staying ahead of the competition can be a challenge. This game offers some un lockable features which you can open buy building up credits from winning races. There is a wide selection of vehicles to choose from.
I give this 8/10
Over All :
This could have been the best racing game to date for the cube if it wasn't so poorly ported. To have a game that suffers from this with the power of the cube is very sad. The game is full of jaggies even though the cube has anti aliasing built in. The people who ported this are guilty of being lazy and not doing a good job. It's a shame that a series known for it's sense of speed and adrenaline really can make you feel as though you are crawling.
Over all 7/10
Overall I would say rent this game first you may really regret making it a buy just on the name alone.

When You Think about Succession…
NPO Conversation on December 9 at GMA Foundations
We invite leaders of nonprofit organizations to join us each quarter for a brown-bag lunch discussion about issues, ideas, and concerns in the nonprofit and philanthropic community. The meetings are a time for us to move beyond the usual conversation between foundations and nonprofit organizations.
Each session focuses on a particular topic, and reservations are required. Guests will learn a little more about GMA and a lot about their peers' perspectives on important issues.
Topic for Conversation: Succession and Sustainability
The pressures on leadership of nonprofit organizations are well known. Passionate about solving some of society's greatest challenges, these executives are frequently faced with a shortage of funds, time and compensation, even if they possess abundant talent. How then does an Executive Director who works to build a strong organization ensure its successful continuity?

So a guy I'm dating and I were flirting around, and his shirt was off and he said "ur the only one that I let see my shirt off" after talking getting a tattoo on his chest.
Do you think this means that he wants to be exclusive?
We've been going out for about 2 weeks now. It may be kinda soon to be boyfriend/girlfriend but I think I'd like to be exclusive in the sense that we both aren't dating other people. We've spent almost every other day together, and he's made comments about buying me a nice dinner, and going places, and how he thinks i'm beautiful (while just normal).
Should I wait for him to bring it up, or should I come out and ask? I don't want to scare him off because I really like him.

Was diagnosed with Cushings and is being treated and looks awesome! just look at her photos...!!!! Her Cushings meds is not high dosage. She takes a pill every other day. Foster mom puts them in 1/2 a pill pocket and Contessa's eyes light up. She thinks they are just wonderful treats. A box of the cushings meds cost about $60.00 which lasts her 2 months. She also has borderline dry eye. SHe only needs a drop each morning in the one eye. So a bottle lasts about 2 months. Lastly she has a heart murmer. She is a go with the flow little girl. She likes all dogs and cats, She is good with people and kids that are calm. She loves to wear clothes. Makes her feel like a Princess. She will go outside in snow or rain to potty, she is a little trooper. She is very calm and very good. She would love more than anything to have a home of her own.
One picture is when she first arrived at the shelter.
Contessa is in foster care so please complete an application before meeting her. Completing an application does not obligate you to adopt; however, it is required. Applications are processed in the order received in an effort to find the best match possible for both the dog and the adopter.

The Tangipahoa Parish School Board and plaintiffs in the system's 46-year-old desegregation lawsuit officially filed a compromise Tuesday in federal court more than six weeks after coming to an agreement, according to court documents.
The two parties in the suit reached a verbal agreement July 7, which they discussed with U.S. District Judge Ivan L.R. Lemelle in a conference July 8, court documents show.
Lemelle gave the parties 30 days to file a compromise, but the defendants asked for a two-week extension in a motion for a continuance. The judge granted the motion, but ordered the motion be filed by Wednesday at 9 a.m.
The compromise contains several elements negotiated by the parties in the aftermath of the failure of four school-tax proposals in the April 30 election.
Three new elementary schools will be built: one each in the Hammond/Natalbany area, between Amite and Loranger, and west of Interstate 55 near Hammond and Ponchatoula, according to the motion.
Kentwood High School will undergo renovation in order to become a career education center, the agreement says.
The funding for the construction will come from a 1-cent sales tax voters renewed in 2007, the motion says.
The compromise dismisses an earlier plaintiffs' motion to sanction the School Board and superintendent and a motion by the plaintiffs asking the court to order the board to impose the proposed taxes despite their rejection by voters.
One part of the compromise establishes a $5,000 fine for contempt of court and $1,000 for each day that the violation would continue.
The compromise also:
• Orders the Tangipahoa Parish School System to hire retired teacher Joyce Richardson.
• Grants conditional unitary status in the area of extracurricular activities.
• Orders the school system to expand the multipurpose building at O.W. Dillon Elementary School in Kentwood.
• Clarifies the process for resolving disputes between the school system and the court-appointed desegregation compliance officer.
• Orders the school system to make more explicit the role of the system's chief desegregation implementation officer.
School Board members voted 6-3 Monday to approve the bulk of the agreement and give their attorney, Charles Patin, authority to negotiate the few remaining sticking points.
Board members Sandra Bailey-Simmons, Andy Anderson and Brett Duncan voted against the compromise.
Duncan said that the plan "would further erode the power of this board" and objected to the penalties for contempt of court.
Bailey-Simmons and Anderson both objected to the plan as a whole, asserting it would do irreparable damage to the Loranger community because it calls for busing more than 500 children to the new elementary schools.

Madi's Favorite Green Beans
READY IN: 15mins
Recipe by birdie 3 andrea
Eating plain steamed green beans gets old after a while, so I decided to add some flavor. I found that my daughter really enjoys these too. That makes them even more awesome! They are pretty simple to make.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 396.89 g fresh green beans (rinsed, trimmed and cut in half) or 396.89 g frozen green beans
- 59.14 ml water
- 29.58 ml butter
- 0.25 ml garlic powder
- 0.25 ml salt
- 0.25 ml pepper
Directions See How It's Made
- Add green beans to a non-stick pan with a lid.
- Set burner to medium-low.
- Add water (you can add more if needed).
- You want to cover and steam till your green beans are soft and to your liking. Check every so often, maybe do a taste test.
- Once they are cooked, remove most of the water, a little water left over is okay.
- Add butter and garlic powder to taste. i think it is safe to say about 1/4 a teaspoon is a good measurement not over-doing it.
- Cook until desired doneness. you can just cook them in butter till it coats them well or sauté them a little.
- Add desired amount of salt and pepper. Don't over-do it! You can always add more salt or pepper, even garlic powder when it is on your plate.

All quotes by Anderson
(4621 quotes found)
"I am responsible. Although I may not be able to prevent the worst from happening, I am responsible for my attitude toward the inevitable misfortunes that darken life. Bad things do happen; how I respond to them defines my character and the quality of my life. I can choose to sit in perpetual sadness, immobilized by the gravity of my loss, or I can choose to rise from the pain and treasure the most precious gift I have – life itself."
"Well, it seems to me that the best relationships - the ones that last - are frequently the ones that are rooted in friendship. You know, one day you look at the person and you see something more than you did the night before. Like a switch has been flicked somewhere. And the person who was just a friend is... suddenly the only person you can ever imagine yourself with"
"We're never so vulnerable than when we trust someone - but paradoxically, if we cannot trust, neither can we find love or joy"
"When love is gone, there's always justice. And when justice is gone, there's always force. And when force is gone, there's always Mom. Hi, Mom!"
"The relationships we have with the world are largely determined by the relationships we have with ourselves"
"Our lives improve only when we take chances and the first and most difficult risk we can take is to be honest with ourselves."
"Blessed are those to whom Easter is not a hunt...but a find; not a greeting...but a proclamation; not an outward fashion...but inward grace; not a day...but an eternity."
"Just remember, you can do anything you set your mind to, but it takes action, perseverance, and facing your fears."

Thai Fish Soup
Recipe by Aunt Cookie
From Moosewood. I think this is a really tasty soup, well worth hunting down the dried galanga. If you can find fresh lemon grass (lucky you!), feel free to substitute it for the dried. This would probably be good with some broccoli added, too.
Top Review by Peter J
This was outstanding. I used around double the amount of fish (Trevalla) but that was only to bulk it up a bit because I was making as a light meal, it wouldn't have affected the overall taste so original quantity would also be fanstastic when used as a starter. Flavour was really well balanced and the last time I had a comparable Thai soup was in a very good Thai restaurant, but even then I think this was just a little better.
See Discussion:2 Reviews
Ingredients Nutrition
- 59.14 ml dried lemon grass
- 4 slice dried galanga root
- 709.77 ml fish stock or 709.77 ml vegetable stock
- 2 (793.78 g) can coconut milk
- 3-6 small red chilies, cut into rounds
- 3 scallions, minced
- 29.58 ml fresh cilantro, chopped
- 340.19 g white fish fillet, cut into bite-sized chunks
- 2 limes, juice of
- 44.37 ml fish sauce
Directions See How It's Made

- In a large saucepan, simmer the coconut milk and 2 remaining cups of stock, uncovered, for 5 minutes.
- Add the chiles, scallions, cilantro, and fish.
- Strain the lemongrass and laos mixture and add that liquid to the pot (you can toss out the herbs).
- Simmer, uncovered, until the fish is just cooked. Remove from heat.

ITT, for many years a key player in the electronic warfare (EW) sector, continues to reinforce its position by continual developments. On display in model form here at Paris is the latest iteration of the state-of-the-art ALQ-211 electronic countermeasures system (ECS), now packaged into a stand- alone pod.
The ALQ-211 was developed as a family of jamming systems that saw its initial application in helicopters. The ALQ-211(V)1 is installed in AH-64D Apache Longbows, and was followed by the (V)2 for the V-22 Osprey and (V)3 for the cancelled RAH-66 Comanche. Other rotary-wing applications are the NH90/(V)5, MH-47/(V)6 and MH-60/(V)7, while the (V)8 is a large-aircraft application as recently installed in a Boeing BBJ for an unspecified customer.
ITT's watchwords are "modular and scaleable," and the ALQ-211 system has proved adaptable for a variety of platforms. The ALQ-211(V)4 AIDEWS version was tailored to the F-16 and has been included in export sales of the Fighting Falcon to Chile, Oman, Poland and, most recently, Pakistan. Success in this field led ITT to develop a podded version–the ALQ-211(V)9. It is packaged into the pod used by the ALQ-131 jammer, a system that is in widespread use but that has been around since the 1970s. Using the ALQ-131's existing pod not only saves greatly on the need for new flight trials, but also provides a considerable amount of vacant space for future growth. Like the -131, it will be carried on the centerline or on a wing pylon that has been wired to carry jammers. Unlike previous podded jammers, the removal and replacement of component LRUs is possible while still on the aircraft.
A podded system has significant potential for the upgrade market, as a cost-effective means of upgrading a fighter's EW suite to current technology levels without the need to integrate distributed sensors and new wiring. ITT already has a customer for the podded ALQ-211, although it has not yet made a formal announcement. It is, however, for application on the F-16, and air tests have already been undertaken. Of course, the podded nature of the system allows it to be carried by a number of types.
ITT is now in full-rate production of its ALQ-214 IDECM system for the US Navy's F/A-18E/F Super Hornet and has also been chosen for the Royal Australian Air Force's recent order for 24 Super Hornets.
Development directions
For future systems ITT is working on a number of programs and improvements. There is much interest in increasing the bandwidth of digital receivers, while a key emerging technology is the use of RF energy for electronic attack. ITT is working on risk-reduction and development programs concerned with array technology.
Traditionally a company dealing in the RF (radio frequency) spectrum, ITT is also looking to expand with a move into the infrared spectrum, and has air-tested a development infrared jamming head that is expected to lead to an IRCM system being offered in the near future. Other work is being undertaken in the field of radar-assisted instrument landing systems (RAILS), and technologies to counter IEDs (improvised explosive devices).

Day 3 continued.
We sat in the same position on the couch, but his dick wasn't visible. We often looked at the tank, still conversing. '...what should we do now?' He asked, cluelessly. I answered cluelessly also, not knowing what his answer would be 'lemme suck your dick...' was the question. 'hahaha... Funny...' I just stared blankly at him. 'are you serious?' I nodded slowly. 'well fuck, then, might as well for all the help.' I smiled, a little to enthusiastic,making me feel weird.. He pulled his b-ball shorts down slowly until his 12 inch dick plopped out. It was completely hard, and it looked sooo delicious. I moved closer and closer slowly, my tongue went first, my tongue lightly touched the tip of his head when, the door lock started twisting and the door opened. He pulled his shorts up swiftly and I pulled back. It was his parents, coming back from shopping all day. It was quiet when his parents entered the living room, we just stAred atvthem, and I excused myself to go home. I said goodbye and scurried home.
Day 4
I didn't expect to go over so when I woke up, I turned onthe tv. But to my surprise the doorbell rang. It was jay, going to invite me over. I went over, waiting for what was in store. 'my parents are going to be at work all day today.' we entered his house and went to his room, his boxers were allover along with swears and jeans, not thAt he wore them much. He pulled off his tee shirt and his sweats ony to be in boxers, with a bulge in them that looked like it wanted to be freed; suffocating. I was astonished, but normal at the same time. I did the same, pulling off my belt then my jeans, and shirt. We were both in our boxers, then I grabbed his boxers and pulled them down slowly. His dick plopped out, looking even more scrumptious. I went faster, trying to avoid interuptions. He was completely stiff, his head was huge, just to take into my mouth. But I did it anyway. I slowly went up an down on his dick swallowing it slowly, I put my hands on his ass and carressed it as he put his hands on my head and forced me to take more and faster. His ass was so smooth, shaved as well as his dick and balls. Finally I reached his whole 12 inch into my mouth, without gagging myself. It was pure bliss. He was enjoying all of it, I could tell. He pulled me away.
'let me fuck you, we've already got this far,' he winked. I smiled 'okay!' he didn't have Any lube, so he jacked off for a little, until I heard him groan real loud. I figured that was my cue, so I pulled off my boxers and bent over, letting his hot cum spray allover my asshole. He I felt his hands squeezing my ass. Then, I felt a tongue touch my ass, licking, and spreading the cum. He was licking at my cunt, Which opened up to his tongue, it felt so delightful. The tongue pulled away, but something much bigger, his dick. The head was lying there as he spoke. 'prepare yourself!' he warned. I simply said, mmhmm, as if I were in lalaland. I felt his dick pushin rapidly and i moaned in pain. I felt his head slither down my ass, it hurt excruciatingly, but felt good at the same time, each thrust of his hips was more of his dick until it was all in. At this time it was heaven. All of it felt great. He grabbed, and squeezed as he pulverized my ass. All I know is, I will never forget this neighbor.

Log files contain information similar to that on the "Log" tab of a trading terminal, e.g. info about starting the terminal, opening and closing orders, errors, installation of indicators and advisors, the server connection, etc. This information may be helpful when analyzing order execution, so customer service specialists often ask traders to provide it.
In MetaTrader 4 you can find the log files by going to File → Open Data Folder → "logs" folder. Log file names look like this: "20150101.log", i.e. each day has its own file. You can save the required part of a log file to a new file or copy the entire file and send it to customer support specialists via email (email@example.com), Live Chat or upload it in the "Feedback" section of your Personal Area.
Please note that information about actions performed by advisors is stored in separate log files that you can find by going to File→ Open Data Folder→ "MQL4" folder → "Logs" folder.
If you need to send one or more lines from your terminal logs, you can copy them directly from MetaTrader 4. To do so, sign in to your trading terminal and go to the "Experts" tab or "Log" tab (depending on the type of logs you need). Right-click on the desired line and click "Copy". You can select several lines by pressing Ctrl+Shift on the keyboard. You can find the desired line by right-clicking on any line and selecting "Browse". A log-file browser window will then open. You can copy the desired lines from there.
How to find log files for a mobile terminal on the Android operating system
On mobile devices with the Android operating system, log files can be accessed through "Explorer" or "File Manager". Go to your phone's internal memory → Android → data → net.metaquotes.metatrader4 → files → logs. You can select the desired file directly on your phone and send it in an email, or connect your phone to a computer and copy the file to the computer to then send it via email, Live Chat or a support request in your Personal Area.

Does anyone know how to block gmail at the firewall? I do NOT want to block Google, though. I know there are content filters that I could purchase, but we are not there yet. I just want an IP address or set of addresses.

Hi Brece,
What makes blocking Gmail so difficult is the fact that users can access it through HTTPS. I've searched some on this and the best advice I have found is blocking the IP addresses which means watching the logs.
You could try a proxy, you may gain the result you are looking for though it is doubtful.
Perhaps someone else has some ideas?
Oct 16, 2007 at 1:25 UTC
Yes, I have actually blocked some IP addresses for other site, but my problem is that there are many IP addresses usually, and I cannot block google.com. I had a suspicion that it couldn't be done, but I thought I'd ask just in case someone had already been able to do it.
Oct 16, 2007 at 1:45 UTC
Websense will work, schools are best known for using it.
Oct 16, 2007 at 1:54 UTC
Yes, I looked into websense. The folks with the purse-strings did not want to pay for it just to be able to block a few sites.
Honestly, I didn't want to push it either, because that means espn.com gets blocked too ; )
Oct 16, 2007 at 2:21 UTC
I understand, but blocking IP addresses is a huge uphill battle and will get tedious with fact that there are at least 10 new proxy sites a day that will get them around the filter.
Oct 16, 2007 at 3:48 UTC
While exceedingly tedious, you can use the QoS feature on some routers to block access. In this article from Cisco, they show how to block the Code Red virus.
You could apply the same techniques to look for mail.google or gmail in the data portion of the request.
Oct 16, 2007 at 4:17 UTC
I agree, utilizing NBAR is a great solution.
Jun 2, 2011 at 6:07 UTC
Have you block the CNAME records for mail.google.com and gmail.com?? http:/
It should work in any firewal rule ;)
Jun 2, 2011 at 9:47 UTC
Nah, I tried myself to block by CNAME mail.google.com network but it fails... I think the easier way would be by content filter...
Jun 29, 2011 at 12:50 UTC
euhm, and why not in your dns? of course if thy know the ip adress they could acces that, but thats unlikely. make a record for mail.google.com and gmail.google.com and you nail all ip's behind that...
it will stop most users.
check logs for the url or proxy's, and talk to the offenders.
not perfect, but a start.
Jul 1, 2011 at 10:43 UTC
i work in nonprofits mostly, until i can convince the powers of the purse to get me sonicwalls for their infastructure i tend to use a combination of pfsense for firewall and opendns for filtering. both free. pfsense is a BSD based firewall package you can deploy on an old PC and administer thru a handy web interface. and opendns is a free (or paid) content filtering dns service. opendns is pretty robust even in its free form for filtering use and i am pretty sure i have blocked webmail access like gmail at some sites using it before. the only downside is since it is by nature an external service, you have to set global settings and route around if you want to get unrestricted access for your work.
Jul 13, 2011 at 5:28 UTC
surely http(s)://mail.google.com and maybe http(s)://www.googlemail.com would block it?
you'd also have to find the email client addresses too - imap/smtp/pop3.gmail.com i think are the mail servers, but they maybe more..
Jul 13, 2011 at 10:21 UTC
I'll second the OpenDNS suggestion.

By Faye Higbee, Uncle Sam's Misguided Children:
The days of confusion related to driving across state lines with a firearm
Senate Republicans introduced S618 on March 14th. It's a bill to amend "chapter 44 of title 18, United States Code, to more comprehensively address the interstate transportation of firearms or ammunition."
The purpose of the bill is to protect law abiding gun owners from arrest while traveling in another jurisdiction that doesn't have the same gun laws as their state. This is a recurring problem in the United States.
For example, a woman was arrested on her way to another state, but in her state it was legal to carry her gun in the car. She was stopped by the police and arrested for the 'gun violation'. Eventually the charges was dismissed, but she spent time in jail, and weeks of emotional distress over the charge hanging over her head.
American Military news reported,
On Tuesday, Senate Republicans presented a bill which would revise current U.S. laws, making it a simpler process for those who want to conduct interstate travel with firearms. The makers of S.618 believe this bill would protect law abiding gun owners from the current complexities that are required by state and local laws.

News Worth Reporting
My company has been in the news a lot recently, for all the wrong reasons. Here's something worth talking about:
My company has been in the news a lot recently, for all the wrong reasons. Here's something worth talking about:
For those of you digging through the GenCon event catalog today, this is the official game I'm running:
Back to Basics
8/16/2012 9:00 – 8/16/2012 12:00
Come check out what this old school thing is all about with red-book Basic D&D, circa 1981. Elf is a class, thouls lurk in the dark, and brave adventurers search forgotten dungeons for lost riches.
I have no idea why it does not list my name as the GM. This is a separate game from the one I will be running Friday night which purposefully not listed in the event catalog.
Last week we finally used the hex map for real. I'm quite pleased with it. Here's a nice bit of play it generated:
In a previous session the players had a random wilderness encounter with some hill giants. After the battle they decided to track the giants back to where they came from (nice use of the Ranger's tracking skill there). On the fly I created a larger in-lair giant encounter, complete with pet grizzly bear and small circle of giant huts. The players managed to kill the giants and their pet, and now use the huts as their safe house while delving a nearby dungeon. As part of the in-lair random treasure, I ended up with treasure map. I proceeded to roll randomly for x and y coordinates on the map to decide where the map pointed to. It landed on a hex just on the edge of the "Gloom Wood", a part of the elven forest that the elves abandoned after losses in an ancient war, and now has a generally spooky tone. Suddenly I have the nugget for a whole new dungeon — an ancient abandoned (and likely haunted) elven outpost. Sweet!
Sandbox style continues to keep me very engaged in this game, which is really the draw of it for me. In the past my campaigns have always petered out after the players dealt with the major plot lines or explored everything I had pre-planned. This campaign has been going on for over two years now, and I continue to be excited to see what new stuff will show up in the setting.
Here's another example, though it has little to do with the hex map:
In the dungeon the players were delving near the giant huts, they encountered a high level spell-caster turned vampire. Actually, this whole dungeon is a one-page dungeon contest winner I dropped into place on a whim when the players asked a sage to research locations of "magical items of power". My favorite thing about this dungeon is not only did it fit the need (lair of a long dead wizard is sure to have lots of crazy magic stuff in it), but the encounters and treasures are all pretty vaguely described, and I made a conscious choice not to fill them in until at the table as we were playing. Yeah, that's right, the vampire was an improvisation made on the spot.
Anyway, the players were in over their heads, encountering her when they were already low on resources and unprepared for just how nasty she was. What's more, after they finally beat her down into turning gaseous they only retreated a couple rooms where they stopped and rested. Well, guess who regenerated all her lost wounds and decided to make a reappearance? Again she pounded them soundly, and although they managed to get her down to gaseous again, only three of the original 7 were still standing. The henchman was dead (actually he died before they even met the vampire), one party member was charmed and then held by his own party, two more were held by the vampire, and finally the halfling thief got polymorphed into a piglet. Amazingly the party managed to get out of there with all characters in tow, and even brought back their favorite henchman with their one and only raise dead scroll.
After a few days recuperating at the ex-giant village, the party hex-crawled back to town (taking their frustrations out on a random goblin village they encountered along the way). Now they are there researching ways to kill a vampire, and contemplating exploring the location of their treasure map to maybe gain a level or two before going back for the vampire.
In the meantime, I'm sitting here trying to decide what a vampire that was almost killed twice and then left alone for several weeks does in that time. Honestly, I can't wait for the party to go after her again. It's going to be good!
For now though, I'd better get to drawing up a map for an abandoned elven outpost.

What you need to know about the Anti-Discrimination Bill
Note: Read a revised and updated version of this post on Esquire Philippines.
Several Anti-Discrimination Bills were re-filed this 17th Congress by tireless champions and LGBT allies in the House of Representatives and the Senate. Here's a snapshot of the bills and what you need to know about them:
- The Anti-Discrimination bill was first filed during the 11th Congress by then Akbayan Rep. Etta Rosales in the House of Representatives and by Miriam Defensor-Santiago in the Senate, which means that this initiative has been pending in Congress for 17 years now. The bill itself was a direct policy proposal from the Lesbian and Gay Legislative Advocacy Network or LAGABLAB, the first LGBT policy advocacy network in the Philippines, as a response to LGBT-related bills filed by some legislators that did not necessarily reflect the priorities of the community. LAGABLAB was recently revived as a community platform to advance SOGIE and human rights in the area of policies and legislation.

The war against poor Filipinos
No one, as far as I recall, died from tanim-bala in NAIA, and yet it infuriated many of us,and we were angered by an apparent scam condoned or perhaps even operated by airport officials. Many were mad at President Aquino, too, for gaffes made by some government officials and by government inaction that was affecting Filipino travellers and migrant workers. But since July, hundreds have already been killed due to the so-called war on drugs and crime, with most deaths appearing on TV or our FB timelines in the same sickening narrative: killed by hitmen, their bodies wrapped in garbage bags or paper with a cardboard that says the victim is a drug offender, or killed by policemen in a buy-bust operation or inside police stations, where the police had to fire and kill them because they were fighting back or because they tried to grab arms from the police while in custody.

The missing faces of Manila Pride
I was enjoying the Manila Pride vicariously through photos posted by friends online, and was happy to see the turnout, when I realized what was disturbing about the pictures: the absence of familiar faces, of gay friends who passed away, most of whom gone because of an epidemic gnawing away our rainbow.
It's always good to remember them surrounded by colors, instead of being reminded of how they were suddenly gone. There was that boy who borrowed a shirt, and never returned it; he was last seen wearing the shirt at a Pride March, right before he disappeared, his name resurfacing on RIP posts flooding your timeline. Then friends who led dual lives, had two Facebook accounts, one with pictures of Pride parades, the other with words as solid and heavy as their closets. Friends who bravely marched with boa feathers, with rainbow flags, only to disappear in silence, muffled by AIDS, their second closet.
Thousands marched in Manila Pride this year. #LetLoveIn, that was the theme, and many responded by going to Luneta, proudly, holding their partner's hand, kissing in public. Let love in, and may pride may also bestow upon us the courage to fight against HIV, and not let the epidemic push us back into new closets.

What to do when Catholic Bishops offer an insincere statement on Orlando
You give it back, instantly.
I made the mistake of reading the statement once, twice, several times, and like the good Catholic boy that I was, tried to understand the wrath and anger I felt inside, to muffle it with compassion, to believe in good faith. I read it again today, and still it didn't measure to the pain and outrage that Orlando has seared into our collective soul. In this time of grief, reading it felt like swallowing a burning piece of coal. Continue reading "What to do when Catholic Bishops offer an insincere statement on Orlando"
I know Omar Mateen
I know Omar Mateen. I have seen him before.
He was that classmate who constantly joked that I am into kissing boys, who sniggered behind my back and called me gay. First to push me in the school hallway, first to throw a punch when I was already down.
He was the father who never hesitated to teach his son that liking boys is wrong, after beating him senselessly for being too sissy, for being too weak. Continue reading "I know Omar Mateen"

Wrapping Things Up
So as you can see, arginine supplements are available in a number of different forms depending on how the amino acid has been manufactured. With this in mind it is important to pay attention to the ingredients used to ensure you are receiving the best possible quality.
If you have never used an arginine supplement before then you can probably get by on a simple L-Arginine Hydrochloride product, but if you are a little more experienced or you don't mind spending a little extra and you certainly won't regret investing in a supplement like Cellucor NO3 Chrome.
The only other factor that you need to consider is whether you want the convenience of arginine capsules or if you don't mind having to mix a free-flowing powder into water before each of your workouts.
