One of the most anti-intellectual and unrealistic pieces of BULLH*T relationship advice I've ever heard, is the idea that a couple should do whatever they can to refrain from arguing with each other, BUT if they "must" then they need to address the situation as calmly, tactfully and professionally as possible. That is one of the most damaging thought-processes you could ever inflict on a couple, because it fails to address the important NEED for a couple to ARGUE – and YES, there's a DEFINITIVE NEED for arguments to take place. Now, I'm not saying you need to be on some Stevie J/Joseline type vibe and threatening to put paws on a fool anytime your significant other does 'that sh*t you don't like', but if you think repressing your emotions will have a positive affect on your relationship, you are INSANE.
Let's be very clear here: Arguments are a VERY inevitable part of life. We all have arguments with people in different sectors of our lives, because we all hold some passionate viewpoints about certain subjects that we DON'T like being challenged on. These passions define our values and our entire intrinsic beings, and when we feel at odds with someone directly relating to that topic, it's just human nature to react emotionally and NOT fully logically. Where common sense might tell us to walk away, avoid conflict or create a measured response, we sometimes tend to ignore ALL of that and damn near cuss someone's ass out.
The concept that it's possible to not be inflamed by the words and actions of your lover, the person you may hold NEAREST and DEAREST to your heart is patently UNREALISTIC. No two humans on the face of this Earth will agree on everything all the time, and the concept that they should be able to resolve their differences like two countries setting up a trade agreement is complete BS. We argue because we LOVE, and that emotional response is PART of loving someone [as opposed to feeling indifferent about them]. Most "relationship-experts" would tell you that your emotions and actions are completely NEGATIVE things towards the development of your union, but I have a much different view: Because arguing IS a natural and inevitable human response, NOT arguing EVER with your significant other just drives you further apart EMOTIONALLY.
Arguing is actually GOOD for a relationship under ONE very important circumstance: If you address the problem THAT day, either as it's happening or at the next best time to bring it up AND you build a context into your relationship that it's OK to AGREE TO DISAGREE. This reminds me of the phrase "Never go to bed angry" which I don't interpret as "learn to avoid ALL arguments", but see more as "have it out if you must – but don't let it carry over to tomorrow." And it's that carrying-over that is the INEVITABLE part of avoidance. See if you don't get your point of view out EXACTLY as it's phrased in your head, you will carry it over EMOTIONALLY because when arguing, sometimes the emotion behind it is equally as important as the entire point. And if you just avoid arguing altogether and take the "high road" your dispute never really gets settled and it comes up in arguments months later, while your partner is looking at you like "B*tch, why you didn't say that 5 months ago! I don't even remember what the hell you talkin' about!"
As much as people don't want to admit it, there's gonna come a time in your relationship where an issue will arise that you will either A) NEED to communicate to your significant other with the emotion you are feeling or B) SWALLOW that emotion up and let it fester deep inside of you. It's BEAUTIFUL to believe that you can take a second to calm down, and then state it with tact, patience and eloquence – but that's not the reality for MOST people. Expressing your emotions shouldn't be predicated on calmness and measured responses – NOT with the one you LOVE.
Now, I can NOT stress enough that I'm NOT advocating arguing over every little, petty BS issue and I'm NOT advocating making mountains out of molehills. I'm simply stating that when an issue becomes LARGE enough to substantially affect your emotions, containing or hiding how you REALLY feel to your significant other might be the worst relationship-decision you ever make.
The point is, there's nothing WRONG with arguing in your relationship IF you are WILLING to understand that it CAN [and probably will] hit the point where neither side fully agrees BUT respects where each other is coming from, drop it and go to bed and have squirtastic make-up sex. A couple can argue EVERYDAY, but as long as they address it EVERYDAY, they are MILES ahead of the couple that NEVER argues – but allows problems to fester inside of them.
This Is Your Conscience

|[ H+ ] x [ HCO3- ] = k x [ CO2 ] x [ H2O ]
Carbonic acid (H2CO3) is central to our understanding and evaluation of acid-base disturbances. This is because it is so readily and rapidly changed. The dissociation products and the ionization products are normally in equilibrium:
This equation can be simplified because H2CO3 is not of clinical interest, [H2O] is constant in-vivo, and PCO2 is more familiar than [CO2]:
This is the Modified Henderson Equation. It is an example of the Law of Mass Action: the products of the concentrations on one side are proportional to the products on the other.
Pure Respiratory Acidosis (high PCO2) causes molecules of CO2 and water to form carbonic acid which ionizes to increase both [HCO3-] and [H+]. The [H+] changes relatively slightly due to buffering of H+, mostly by hemoglobin. At this raised PCO2, the kidney compensates by eliminating [H+]. To maintain chemical equilibrium the [HCO3-] rises further, i.e., respiratory acidosis raises the bicarbonate level and metabolic compensation raises it further. Try it (Click):
Pure Metabolic Acidosis implies a raised [H+] level with a normal PCO2. To maintain the equilibrium, the high [H+] would merely cause a reciprocal fall in the [HCO3-]. In practice respiratory compensation occurs almost at once and lowers the PCO2, which reduces both the [H+] and the [HCO3-], i.e., metabolic acidosis lowers the bicarbonate level and respiratory compensation lowers it further. Try it (Click):
Bicarbonate is neither an ideal measure of metabolic acidosis nor a measure of respiratory acidosis. This is because both the respiratory and the metabolic components can affect the concentration of bicarbonate ions. The exception to this rule would be when the only results available are from Blood Chemistry analysis and the patient appears to have normal lungs. Here, a bicarbonate change almost certainly indicates a metabolic abnormality.
|Lipid Conduit, Polar Barrier
The Cell Membrane provides a protected environment for the reactions which sustain life. It limits transfer of various substances, particularly those that are polar or ionized. By contrast, water, lipid soluble substances, and dissolved gases pass freely. The composition of the cell depends upon the pH for two reasons: first, as the pH changes so will the degree of ionization and, hence, the concentration of ionized substances; second, if the degree of ionization changes greatly, a substance may cease to be ionized and will, therefore, cross the cell membrane more readily.
The pH varies from one part of the cell to another and probably averages close to 7.0 at 37oC. This is much closer to neutral - which is pH 6.8 at 37oC - than the extracellular fluid. In practice we neither measure, nor directly treat, the pH inside the cell; we treat the extracellular fluid.
|The Cell's "Bath Water"
About 20% of the body water is extracellular fluid - typically 14 liters. This is the environment - the "Bath Water" which provides the cell's nutrition, oxygenation, waste removal, temperature, and alkaline environment. Normal extracellular pH (7.4) is slightly alkaline and represents [H+] = 40 nmol/1. This is about 40% of the [H+] inside the cell, 100 nmol/1 (average pH = approximately 7.0). This concentration gradient favors hydrogen ion elimination from the cell but is counterbalanced by the intracellular potential of -60 mV which tends to attract the hydrogen ion into the cell.
|The Cell's Larger Bath
The "Treatable Volume" is larger than the extracellular fluid. The extracellular fluid is the principal part of the body being treated when alkali (or acid) is administered. If the cell membrane were completely impermeable, the extracellular fluid would be the only part of the body treated. Some equilibration, however, occurs between the cell and the extracellular fluid. It is, therefore, customary to treat a slightly larger volume.
The treatable space is about 30% of the body water - typically about 21 liters. This is a useful approximation for emergency therapy. Over a longer period, however, equilibration continues between the intra- and extra- cellular fluid which further increases the apparent size of the treatable space. In addition, there may be other sources of change during a period of therapy, because the body may be either correcting the abnormality or making it worse.
|pH 7.0 at 37oC (alkaline !)
The intracellular fluid is a complex environment made up specialized regions with different functions. The pH varies from one part to another. It used to be assumed that the intracellular pH was approximately neutral (pH 6.8 at body temperature). However, measurements indicate that the average intracellular pH is slightly on the alkaline side of neutral, about pH 7.0. Sahlin et al (1997) showed that the intracellular pH in muscle in volunteers at rest was about 7.0 with a bicarbonate concentration of about 10.2 mMol/L.
|Our Fuel makes CO2
As fire makes smoke, so metabolism makes acid - CO2 and metabolic acids. The body's own regulators of acid-base balance are the lungs, liver and kidneys which are responsible for excreting and metabolizing these acids. In acid-base disturbances, there is an imbalance between the quantity of acids produced and the body's ability to respond. The usual result is a characteristic, partial compensation (see Acid Production)

Read More Articles About: The Training of a Secretary
An Ancient Profession
( Originally Published 1922 )
Someone ought to rise and make remarks about the Secretary. Nobody seems to have done it, at least in a connected way, there-fore, I will attempt it, but briefly withal, and as impersonally as may be possible. I have searched the catalogue of one of the largest libraries of the United States with-out finding a line about the secretary or his duties. This is all the more strange as the vocation is not without honor, and the position is an ancient one. Perhaps it goes too far back to require comment. I look upon it as a dignified profession, ennobled by service, and I shall prove it so, beyond peradventure.
Secretary, which in French is secrétaire and in Italian, Spanish and Portuguese,
secretario, is derived from the Latin word secretarius, which comes from the noun secretam, a secret. Originally a secretary was a confidant, a person who was entrusted with secrets; from which it appears that the first quality to be desired in a secretary is the power to keep to himself such information as may come within his knowledge. No secretary can be successful, can fulfil his task adequately, who does not possess the golden gift of silence.
As I have said, the position goes back to the early days of civilization. Long before Rome ruled the world, or the Latin tongue was spoken, secretaries were doing their work in much the same manner as at present. Nebuchadnezzar had a score or more of them in Babylon, about 600 B. C. He called them Scribes. Tablets are in existence containing their minutes. How entrancing to see and have someone else read the records of a meeting on a clay tablet about as big as a bath-mitt or a shredded wheat biscuit, and somewhat resembling those useful articles!
For example take the meeting between the king and " the magicians, astrologers, sorcerers, and the Chaldeans", the day after Nebuchadnezzar's dream. O king live forever!" would occur many times, and all the proceedings, including the failure of the Chaldeans to remember the dream for the king and to interpret it, as well as Daniel's success in doing both would not fill more space than the palm of a lady's hand; quite different from some minutes I know of.
There is a superb description of a secretary in the reign of Jehoiakim the, son of Josiah, king of Judah, in the thirty-sixth chapter of Jeremiah.
Then Jeremiah called Baruch the son. of Neriah; and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the Lord, which he had spoken unto him, upon a roll of a book.
Therefore go thou, and read in the roll, which thou hast written from my mouth, the words of the Lord in the ears of the people in the Lord's house upon the fasting day: and also thou shalt read them in the ears of all Judah that come out of their cities.
And Baruch the son of Neriah did according to all that Jeremiah the prophet commanded him, reading in the book the words of the Lord in the Lord's house.
Then he went down into the king's house, into the scribe's chamber and, lo, all the princes sat there, even Elishama the scribe, and Delaiah the son of Shemaiah, and Elnathan the son of Achbor, Gemariah the son of Shaphan, Zedekiah the son of Hananiah, and all the princes.
And they said unto him, Sit down now, and read it in our ears, So Baruch read it in their ears.
And they asked Baruch, saying, Tell us now, How didst thou write all these words at his mouth?
Then Baruch answered them, He pronounced all these words unto me with his mouth, and I wrote them with ink in the book.
News of Baruch's readings naturally reached the ears of the king. The roll was taken to the chamber of Elishama the scribe whence it was fetched by Jehudi who read it to the king; and because of statements there-in which were displeasing to him, he did a most reprehensible thing, as you shall see.
Now the king sat at the winterhouse in the ninth month: and there was a fire on the hearth burning before him.
And it came to pass, that when Jehudi had read three or four leaves, he cut it with the pen-knife, and cast it into the fire that was on the hearth, until all the roll was consumed in the fire that was on the hearth.
Then took Jeremiah another roll, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neriah; who wrote therein from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the book which Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire.
I submit that this is a feat which not many presiding officers or secretaries of today would care to undertake. Perhaps they had fewer things to think of in the time of Jehoiakim king of Judah, than at present, and therefore, they did them more thoroughly.
The last six magnificent chapters of the Proverbs were saved to the world by scribes. Chapter XXV begins
These are also proverbs of Solomon, which the men of Hezekiah, king of Judah, copied out.

<really long rant>
This post is for all my friends and colleagues who work in digital. We used to call it the IT industry, but now we just call it digital, and if this industry wouldn't mind, I would like to ask it to slow the fuck down. I never thought I would miss the Web 2.0 days, but in all honesty, I would do anything to turn back technological time. I wish cell phones were just cell phones again and I wish no one ever invented the cloud.
Now, we build websites and apps. We design software user interfaces and digital marketing campaigns. We create content for more social media networks than I can keep up with, and we have to make sure everything we do works on a bazillion different permutations of operating systems, browsers, devices and screen sizes, not to mention all the audiences, personas and strategies. There are no less than ten competing varieties of every kind of platform and technology, and vendors are popping up every day selling all kinds of different services which are all supposed to provide some kind of marketing miracle for all the poor shmucks who make a living sell things or helping people sell things.
And I am one of those poor shmucks.
Now, we have to figure out how to design and build all sorts of digital things so they work on all sorts of devices and, in the agency world, we have to do that with clients of all kinds breathing down our necks.
I remember when the VP of Creative Services came back from the Internet Retailer Conference one year and said, "If I hear the phrase 'Web 2.0' one more time, I'm going to kill someone." But as a project manager, the Web 2.0 days made me giddy. Finally, finally, we could create in code, almost anything a designer could imagine. We could create rounded corners using CSS and if the designer got too crazy we could always call the flash guys. Finally, I didn't have to explain to designers (and clients) why we couldn't do things because coding technology had finally caught up with Photoshop. And this progress was happening in parallel with the platform-ization of the digital landscape. And platforms were great, platforms got installed and customized instead of built from scratch. And if you didn't get too crazy with the design, you could leverage the platform and limit most of the heavy lifting to CSS. And CSS, we never really thanked that technology thoroughly because we were getting caught up in all the other progress.
But at this point, I really do just want to turn back time. Because how the hell are we all supposed to keep up? I used to joke that this wasn't rocket science, but I'm tired of keeping up and responsive website design didn't turn out to be the godsend it seemed like it was going to be. I remember being in the let's-let-flash-die camp, but now, I can hardly remember why. Oh, right, it was the smart phone. That's why we needed flash to die. Because those two technologies couldn't play nice together, or at least that's what I remember after so much technological water under the bridge.
It's hard to pinpoint exactly what point in time I would like to turn us back to, but it was somewhere around the advent of the smart phone. But those early days of the smart phone weren't too bad. All of a sudden we had all these new projects. Suddenly, companies didn't need one website, they needed two websites. And no one expected the mobile website to be nearly as cool as the regular website, so it wasn't so hard. No one minded, the use of really janky "wrapper" technology and those were the glory days of web services and custom API development. Yes, we had problems with data synching and the mobile websites we were cranking out were kind of clunky. But everyone felt so cool with their new smart phones it took them a minute to get hyper-entitled about usability and page load times. Things were starting to get complicated, but at least back then we could easily justify separate, additional budgets for the development and maintenance of mobile properties. And really, the expectations were relatively low, both on the client side and on the user side.
But now, everyone wants everything. They want the website and the iOS app and the android app and they want the strategy for the website and the app. And they want the social media campaign and the search engine optimization, and they want the social media campaign to work miracles while the paid media campaign has a zero dollar budget. They want viral video and cartwheeling menu buttons which all work seamlessly across any device you can think of. They want data of all kinds and they want everything to be integrated with backend systems even if those backend systems are dangerously out of date because the parts of the website no one can see never get any of the budgetary love. Everyone wants to lower their overall cost of ownership, but no one wants to face the pink elephant in the room which is a digital ecosystem which was been taped together over the years by a revolving string of marketing and technology resources who were all just doing the best they could with what they had that month all while racing to keep up.
If you're lucky, you work at a company which survives by nibbling on one or two relatively isolated slices of the digital marketing budget pie. If you're kind of lucky, you work client-side where you have to worry about the totality of the digital landscape, but only for one brand. But if you're not lucky, you work at an agency, that does everything.
Regardless of how lucky you may or may not be, my job and the jobs of my friends and colleagues are appreciably harder than they were eight years ago and the budgets are tighter than ever due to the continued slicing of the marketing budget pies. But there comes a point when marketing professionals must admit that a pie sliced into too many pieces is no longer edible.
And really, people want everything. People want websites that are the most awesome things ever no matter what they are trying to sell. The website needs to work miracles and drive engagement like no one has ever seen. The website needs to look perfect even on the marketing director's nephew's android phone when he turns it sideways at dinner to show her something. The website needs to be easy to update and the website needs to look as awesome on your iphone as it does at on your work computer. Never mind that your work computer is running IE8 on Windows XP because the giant corporation you work for hasn't updated, or can't update, their software due to some other old technology dependency. Oh, and that website which is all responsive and shit which really does look so awesome on your iphone, the same one that needs to work on your work computer with IE8, it also has to be ADA compliant so a blind person can use it on their ipad, in portrait mode. Oh, and that website, it also has to fit the design sensibility of someone's boss, whose design sensibilities are stuck in the Web 2.0 days. And worse, the design of that website is going to be performed by committee, and we all know that is never good.
And of course, everyone wants everything yesterday and it's not just users who want everything. Industry professionals who are well aware of the exponentially complicated nature of what we do, are genuinely surprised when a website built two years ago for less than market value doesn't work on a first generation kindle fire in portrait mode.
Later today, I will reapply my happy face and I will not let progress get the best of me. But sometimes, I really do wish I could turn back the digital clock to the good old Web 2.0 days.

New York Giants: Odds on Home-Field Advantage, Playoff Seeds & MoreNovember 5, 2012
After a brutal loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday, the Giants record stands at 6-3, good enough for a commanding two-game lead over the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC East (pending the result of Monday night's game).
Despite a division title looking probable, due mainly to the ineptness of the rest of the division, home-field advantage throughout the NFC playoffs appears to be a long shot for Big Blue. Below are the current NFC playoff teams as it stands on Nov. 5:
- Atlanta Falcons (8-0)
- Chicago Bears (7-1)
- San Francisco 49ers (6-2)
- New York Giants (6-3)
- Green Bay Packers (6-3)
- Seattle Seahawks (5-4)*
*Wins tiebreaker over the Minnesota Vikings based on head-to-head win percentage
The first problem for the Giants in grabbing the No. 1 seed is the fact that they have to leapfrog three teams to do so. It is difficult to expect the Falcons, Bears and 49ers, who are a combined 21-3, all to lose enough games down the stretch to allow the Giants to pass them.
Another problem is that the undefeated Falcons have a really easy schedule the rest of the way. Atlanta only plays one team in its final eight games with a winning record, which happens to be the Giants at home in Week 15. The Falcons seem destined for 13 wins at worst, which means the Giants would have to go undefeated over their last seven games to match them.
This brings up a final reason why home-field advantage for the Giants appears improbable—they simply haven't been playing well lately. If the Redskins had covered Victor Cruz properly on the 77-yard game-winning touchdown pass two weeks ago and Dez Bryant had landed butt first in the end zone last week, New York would be riding a three-game losing streak right now. Expecting them to win 12 or 13 games at this point seems ridiculous when they are playing more like a .500 team.
Current odds for the Giants to claim the No. 1 seed and home-field advantage: 10 percent
So if the Giants aren't going to finish No. 1 in the NFC, where will they ultimately be seeded? Last week I predicted that the Giants would finish 11-5. Standing by this prognostication, I think that will be good enough for the No. 4 seed.
The 49ers should hold off the Giants for the No. 3 seed despite New York possessing the tiebreaker due to its victory over San Francisco in Week 6, because they have a manageable schedule in the second half. The Bears also look to have only two or three losses left based on their remaining slate of games.
Here are my full projections for the NFC playoff teams and seedings:
- Falcons (14-2)
- Bears (13-3)
- 49ers (12-4)
- Giants (11-5)
- Packers (11-5)
- Bucs (9-7)
If my projections pan out, then the Giants would have a difficult wild-card-round matchup against the Packers. They would be much better off as the No. 3 seed facing the Bucs or other potential No. 6 seeds like the Seahawks, Vikings or Lions.
Where the Giants are seeded and who they face in the playoffs is secondary, though, to how they are playing entering the postseason. The Giants need to have Eli Manning and the passing attack at peak form if they are going to repeat as champions.
They also must prevent opposing offenses from consistently shredding them on the ground or through the air. The Giants have allowed either 150 yards rushing or 275 yards passing by the opposition in five of their last six games.
If New York can fix these issues come the first week of January then they will be the team to beat in the NFC, even as a No. 4 seed.

Product Details
After crewcuts designer Jenny Cooper asked her 10-year-old-son, Walker, "What's the one word you would want to wear on a shirt?" she transformed his response into this spectacular tee in our famously soft slub cotton—what boy doesn't want to feel strong, powerful and invincible? There's something so natural, unchecked (and completely spot-on) about Walker's suggestion of "Undefeatable," so we chose a bold, almost-defiant color story to match.

This allows us to more easily bolt libtool build machinery onto packages that have unusual(ly crappy) build systems that rely on installing libraries to some common build directory after they're built. We do this by adding a "buildlibdir" variable to the uninstalled libtool archive that points to the build directory of the archive.

How the Rich and Powerful Control America
I recently watched the documentary "Hot Coffee" on HBO Demand about Tort Reform in the U.S. One case that was highlighted in the documentary was about Stella Liebeck, a 79-year-old woman from Albuquerque, New Mexico who burned herself by spilling hot coffee on her lap purchased from a McDonald's drive-through restaurant (1992). As a result, she sued McDonalds and was awarded over $2.86 million (later reduced to $640,000). The media reported the news as our legal system running amuck. Many people demanded Tort Reform to get rid off these frivolous lawsuits. I recall hearing about the lawsuit and thought it was crazy that someone would be awarded that kind of money for spilling coffee in their lap.
However, when I learned the details I understand why the jury awarded the money to the plaintiff. This woman suffered 3rd degree burns on both her inner thighs requiring painful skin graphs. Initially, she only wanted McDonalds to pay her medical bills and loss of income ($20,000) but McDonalds refused and only offered $800. Additionally, it was discovered that about 700 McDonald's customers reported being burned by hot coffee and the company did nothing to resolve the problem. McDonald restaurants kept the coffee at 180 degree Fahrenheit which caused serious burns.
The documentary is about how Tort Reform was pushed by big business to limit payout in lawsuits and how big business used the media to manipulate society in believing that Tort Reform would benefit everyone. When it reality it only benefited big businesses. As an example, Tort Reform was sold in Texas as reducing healthcare cost by reducing awards in malpractice suits. However, since Tort Reform was enacted in Texas in 2003 healthcare costs has skyrocketed.
The documentary had me thinking about 2 things; the first is how people are easily misled by the media and the second is how the rich and powerful really run the United States although we are suppose to be a democracy.
Fact: People are quick to judge which makes it easy for the media to mislead and manipulate them.
The recent not guilty verdict in the Casey Anthony case is an example of how people are quick to judge without having all the information. People blasted the jury for finding Casey Anthony not guilty in the death of her child. However, many of these people don't know all the details. They were not sitting, listening and reviewing all the information the jury was presented with. They heard snippets of news from the media and jumped to conclusions. When in reality, if they were on the jury they may have reached the same decision.
Another example was when Shirley Sherrod, a USDA official, was quickly fired for a speech she gave at a NAACP event. A blogger took her speech, edited it and made Shirley Sherrod sound as if she was a racist. The media jumped on the story, people were outraged, even the President couldn't believe it and as a result she was immediately fired. However, as soon the entire speech was viewed, everyone discover they were duped. Shirley Sherrod was not a racist and she was immediately offered her job back.
As I've grown older and wiser, I've learned to not jump to conclusion without knowing the full story. Whenever I see political commercials giving snippets of information about a political candidate I've learned to not believe any of it. Most of the information is "half-truths" or downright lies. However, I've often wondered what percentage of the American public realizes that these commercials are not factual. I've often believed that these commercials should be banned from being aired. Politicians should not get elected by spewing false information about their opponents. Isn't that just plain common sense!
Research has proven that these commercials are effective at manipulating elections. The candidate who can afford to show the most negative ads about this competitor wins 90% of the time. This is extremely unfortunate.
As a result, the rich and powerful use the media to influence elections. The biggest threat to the rich and powerful is the fact that the common man has 1 vote just like them. The common man can band together to elect people to represent them and their interests. However, the reality is that the rich and powerful use the media to influence the common man to vote for things that only benefits the rich and powerful.
And it's Getting Worse
Last year the Supreme Court decision to roll back campaign contributions by companies is simply wrong. This just hands control of elections to big business and the rich. The people who can afford to use the media to manipulate society wins. I'm certain the founding fathers of the United States didn't intend for only the rich and powerful to control the country.

Good post! I agree that its shameful that big businesses back politicians with huge sums of money. The supreme court is clearly wrong! But then again, big business was involved with getting these conservative supreme court judges appointed.

Actually the Founding Fathers did not want the masses to have the final say in determining the government which is why they created the Electoral College.
However, in recent times, the political system has been hijacked by the rich and powerful due to the influence of television ads and lobbyists influence on politicians. Thanks to the short attention span of too much of the electorate, we are living in an era of soundbite politics. Another factor involved in the dumbing down of the political process are the adage that "If you repeat a lie long enough and loud enough, it will become the truth."
Unfortunately, the only ways to change the system are to enact Election Finance Reform legislation or to have the "huddled masses" start a revolution. The first is unlikely to happens since those in power would have to lead this effort. And the second is increasingly unlikely in the short term since the power brokers through the system of nuevo indentured servitude and the the distracting use of the media keep us otherwise occupied or divided to recognize and address the larger problem.

Yes, sometimes the media and those political commercials seriously annoy me because I feel like they are insulting my intelligence. Unfortunately, the masses fall for these tactics. Weird though, because it sometimes it seems really obvious!

Craftsman compressor Reed Valve Problem
Replacement-the next step?
By: Rob, from Alabama
Thanks for your great website. I have really been scratching my head about my compressor. A few minutes at the site has been a great help in narrowing down the problem.
I have a small Craftsman 921.153101--3 gal. 1.5hp unit. It will build pressure. I can hear it leaking--only when it is running. Your reed valve article sent me to check the intake filter assembly. When it is running, I can feel a steady stream of air pouring OUT of the intake.
I tore down the cylinder assembly and the reed valves are not damaged. Is there any easy to to assure that they're seated properly? Do I need to replace the assembly? Just the reeds and the valve plates? I've looked at the parts and (as you once again so wonderfully pointed out) it is not cost effective to send this out to the Sears repair service. The P&L would be as much or more than the unit. Thanks again for all you're doing. Keep up the great work!
My response: Great picture Rob, and thanks for the kind words. I expect that the reed valves are not working. Nope, I don't know the check for proper valve seating? Anyone else have any thoughts?
Comments: Check valve - by: Anthony
Had the same issue with my 5 hp belair. Turns out the check valve at the tank had failed and pressure pushing back into the compressor motor.
Comments: Craftsman 15310 - by: Kenney Yale. Rob I have the exact same compressor and am having issues with it building pressure. The gaskets look ok and are sealed tight, to my knowledge. There is oil. The only air I feel seems to be coming from the generator. I don't know even what the reed set up is supposed to be. Is it one reed per slot??? I have 2 reeds and 2 slots. It looks like they both fit in one slot. What did yours look like?
New Question about Emglo compressor does not build full pressure? By: al, US
My Emglo k15a-8p turns on but does not seem like it is running full speed. it builds pressure slowly and only up to around 80psi. I think it is setup as constant run as when it is full of air, it still runs, but something happens and it runs much quieter. Now the compressor runs in this "quiet" state all the time. any ideas?
My response about Emglo compressor Constant run compressors have valves that control the intake. When the pressure in the tank reaches cut-out pressure, then that valve opens, unloads the compressor, and the electric motor can run with almost no load, saving wear, tear and energy cost. If your compressor only runs "unloaded", then likely you've got a problem with the unloader circuit.
Can you refer to your manual, or contact the manufacturer? If not, it's off to your local Repair shop. See the Repairs page to see if a local repair shop has contact info for you.
New Question about Craftsman compressor won't build pressure? By: kenny Maldonado, colorado springs
I have a A craftsman 5 gallon 1 horse direct drive oil lubricated cast cylinder air compressor. I tried using two coil roofing nail guns on this compressor and now the thing doesn't even build any pressure, I've checked the release valve it's closed, exhaust seems to work right. what are your thoughts?
My Response: Why would you use two coil roofing nail guns on your poor compressor? What did it ever do to you? :-)
Am I to understand that you have connected two air guns from the compressor discharge coupling, and neither will run?
There are many reasons why a compressor will run yet not build pressure in the tank. And if there's no pressure in the tank, then the nail guns can't run. When the compressor shuts off (assuming it does) does air bleed out from the unloader valve constantly? That being the case, see the page www.about-air-compressors.com/pressureswitch.html. On the other hand, if your compressor is running continuously and not gathering any pressure in the tank, then it won't ever reach cut out, and your unloader valve won't ever open, so you have a different problem. See the page www.about-air-compressors.com/troubleshooting-your-compressor.htm, and see the link to pages about why an air compressor will not build air pressure.
Comments about Craftsman compressor won't build pressure?Apr 17, 2011 - Check your gaskets - by: Anonymous
If your air compressor builds pressure to a point, and then won't go any higher, check your gaskets. If you take the compressor apart, be prepared to replace the gaskets as they are brittle after use and most likely will tear.
Check the gasket that divides the chambers by the air intake. Make sure that there is no part of the divider gasket missing. Even a small gap can cause pressure to cease building. You can buy replacement gaskets for most brands, or you can buy a sheet of gasket material at an auto parts store for under $10 and cut your own. Try to keep the old gaskets in tact as much as possible to use them as a template.
New Question about Hitachi air tank won't fill, compressor motor runs great?? By: Joseph Schneider, Duluth,Mn.USA
I have a Hitachi 2 HP 4 Gallon Oil-Lubricated Air Compressor Model # EC12.
The motor sounds strong, but I'm getting hardly any air in my tanks. I check the oil and and looked at the gasket and it seems to look ok. Air is coming out of the top of motor. Don't know if that is normal.
My Response about Hitachi air tank won't fill Hello Joseph. No, air isn't supposed to come out of the top of the motor. This symptom makes me think that you have a valve failure, and what may be happening (since air follows the path of least resistance) is that the air that's being ingested by the compressor piston is being blown right back out the same inlet port since it's easier for the air to flow that way, than down past a check valve into the tank.
Why won't your compressor build air pressure? There are a list of reasons found at www.about-air-compressors.com/compressor-why-not-build-pressure.html, though I suspect it's the reed valve that is causing your compressor problems.
Comments about Hitachi air tank won't fill Nov 18, 2009 - Hi bill - by: JosephIs the reed valve the cylinder shape by the gages that you can pull to release the air?
My Response No, that's the PRV, Joseph. The reed valves are located inside the intake hole (usually there is an intake filter screwed into the intake port) and they control the air in, and stop the air out, so that the air can be forced into the tank.

I agree that this is the best out of them all. Just the transition of Skywalker is just epic and so tragic. I felt full of rage and hate at how naive he was. Man, the battle scene was just awesome! The best out of them all! To think that young little boy from the first episode would turn into the legendary infamous dark lord we all love. 5/5

IMO, the only good prequel of the bunch. Alone, a very good film, afterall, it's Faust, is it not? But as part of the SW saga, the last twenty minutes were incredible as it offered wonderful insights into the beloved Chapters 4,5, and 6. Now when I consider the Star Wars saga I say; Revenge, Star Wars, Empire, and Jedi.

I never really been a star wars fan, Hayden Christensen is one of my favorite actors so i gave it a try. I really liked the movie no joke, the obi wan kenobi vs anakin skywalker fight was as epic and dramatic as you're gone get in a fight scene. Hayden went all out in this movie and played the "evil angry and confussed " role perfect. 10/10 movie was craaaaaaaazy.

This was really very sad. I just feel bad for Anakin, he's been through so much pain that I can't really blame him for becoming dark.
|Posted by Joshboii171 7 years, 6 months ago
When I asked the reviewer sitting next to me to sum up Revenge of the Sith, he simply said "great!" That seemed to basically be the consensus of virtually everyone in attendance at an advance press screening of the final chapter in the Star Wars saga. There was an exuberant mood leaving the theater, as if everyone was in collective agreement that Lucas had finally done it. That he had gone out on top, with a stunning, rock-solid coup de grace. And from all the feedback I've heard from that screening, my sense of that collective mood was right. There are no real spoilers in ROTS. Everyone basically knows what happens in Episode 4: A New Hope. We all know Anakin becomes Vader. We know Obi Wan lives and we know Luke and Leia are born. What we don't know is how Lucas weaves those story lines into the large, six-part opus and better yet, why? No, it's not a perfect movie. There are those moments that make us cringe. Bad dialog and High School drama class acting make for a few awkward moments where you can hear audible moans and giggles in the audience, but we have come to expect this from modern Star Wars films. The upside is that these moments are rare in Episode III. OK, get ready. Take a deep breath. No Jar Jar! Yes, you read that right. You can let out that deep breath now. Fortunately, we have one savior to rely on for stellar acting. Mr. Ian McDiarmid as Supreme Chancellor Palpatine. McDiarmid brings the elegance of an Alec Guiness back to the franchise in a knockout performance that leaves the audience riveted and exhausted. He is the lifeblood of the film. As someone who saw the original 30 times in it's first month of release at the age of 13, I currently consider myself a Star Wars moderate. I don't have volumes of SW merchandise, nor can I debate whether or not carbonite contains enough oxygen to make it float. All I know is that magical feeling Star Wars gave me in the original 1977 release and that I'm happy to say, after a disappointing pair of prequels, has been finally restored and reinvigorated. Here's to Mr. Lucas for giving us all something spectacular to remember for our entire lives that embodies the whole point of going to the movies in the first place, to escape and lose ourselves in another world. 7.8/10 Stars

The best movie of the prequels. The emotion, action, plotlines... They all culminate to the events portrayed in this movie, events that define the stories told in the first movies of the series. Absolutely great, the ending drew tears from my eyes. The music in it is also unbelievaly wonderful.
|Posted by Maggotleader 6 years ago
Quite possibly the most epic story to ever be told. This chapter is the most tragic and combined with powerful music makes even the strongest people struggle to hold back tears. No matter how much Lucas has sold out... you can't deny the story was a stroke of genius on his part.

"They were amazed at His teaching,
because His message had authority."
--Luke 4:32
"When they saw the courage of Peter and John…
they were astonished and they took note
that these men had been with Jesus."
--Acts 4:13
"I have given you authority…
to overcome all the power of the enemy;
nothing will harm you."
--Luke 10:19
These passages tell us of Jesus' power, authority, courage and boldness being handed down to His disciples.
Where have these qualities gone today?
Is God's arm too short? Has He lost His power? His authority? Where are His courage and His boldness? Did Jesus abdicate the throne? Does He no longer possess these attributes?
Or is something wrong in us; in those who claim to belong to Christ? Is there something missing in those of us who call ourselves believers in Christ? Something that prevents us from seeing the power, authority, courage and boldness of Jesus from being fulfilled as He promised?
Perhaps we have become as the teachers of the law were in Jesus' day. Living by creeds, curriculums, plans, programs, systems, principles, and precepts, instead of by the power of the Spirit of God changing us into the strong, courageous, bold character of Jesus Christ, Lord of all.
Today many of our pastors, leaders and teachers are "reeds swayed by the wind"…men "dressed in fine clothes"…not prophets and power-filled messengers of God's Word. --Luke 7:24-26. And those of us who inhabit the pews, well, we are worse. We sit and soak, and savor the aroma of the Word of God without tasting the meat, and without standing to speak in boldness of what Christ shows us.
Jesus tells us that those who truly follow Him will do what He is doing, and more. That the Spirit will dwell in them with power. That they will boldly proclaim the Truth, even if it means shaking the foundations of religious institutions and worldly traditions. That they will be empowered to do the things Jesus did, including showing His love to all those around us.
Brethren, Jesus waits on us. Are we waiting on Him? Are we in constant prayer as the early Church was—praying to receive the power of the Spirit that we may do God's work in His Way?
The promises have never changed.
"Jesus Christ is the same—yesterday and today and forever." --Heb. 13:8
What in our churches today requires or waits upon the power of God? What in our daily lives today as Christians requires or waits upon the power of God? Our church, business and personal lives almost completely rely on our own power and our own authority.
God knows we live and move and do all things in our own power and authority. We're not fooling Him.
The world knows we live and move and do all things in our own power and authority. They see our weakness and dependence on worldly things. We're not fooling them.
Brethren, I say with sadness, and knowledge of my own failings, that we often live as the pagans do. There is very little difference. The proof is this: we depend upon, worry about, and act upon all things around us in the same manner and order in which the pagans depend on them, worry about them, and act upon them. We worry about jobs, money, homes, cars, possessions, getting ahead, having the good things, fitting in, being respected, being popular, having toys, building bigger and better churches, political issues, sports, music, the latest technology, everything.
Often nothing in our lives as "Christians" differs from the world except the fact that we say we believe in Jesus, and participate in our church activities!
We are religious. But we don't shake the world by the power of God's Spirit.
As Jesus went about His Father's business, He shook things up. He caused problems. Things were never status quo with Jesus around. He shook up the pagan world, and He shook up the religious world. Jesus made people uncomfortable. He spoke Truth where falsehood abounded. He called out sin when He saw it. He reached out to help everyone hurting or hungry or thirsty, and spent His time with those in need.
To the religious leaders of His day Jesus said, "Are you not in error because you do no know the Scriptures or the power of God?" --Mark 12:24
He so troubled the waters of the conventional seas that the religious leaders hated Him. They challenged His authority continually.
"By what authority are you doing these things?" they asked. "And who gave you authority to do this?" --Mark 11:28
Who challenges our authority today? Whom do we threaten? Whose pagan or religious ways do we shake up? Whose waters do we trouble? Where is the mighty
today that challenges the power and authority of Satan's hold upon people and the world? Kingdom of God
To all of us in the ekklesia of God—the Body of Christ—I say: We must seek the Lord God and the power of His Spirit.
We must wait upon Him, hear His Word and obey it, leaving modern worldly or 'Christian' convention behind and being willing to live as the Church should live, empowered to speak and act boldly on Jesus' Truth.
Brethren, we must obey God rather than men!
Do we doubt that Jesus is the ultimate "mover and shaker" of all things? Do we doubt that Jesus is the enemy of religious convention, and comfortable apostasy?
Or do we really down deep, just doubt God completely, and doubt that Jesus will have His Way?
"As He was leaving the temple, one of His disciples said to Him, 'Look, Teacher! What massive stones! What magnificent buildings!' 'Do you see all these great buildings?' replied Jesus. 'Not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.' " --Mark 13:1,2
The power and authority of Jesus will throw down every monument we build to religion, and every false god we serve. He is Lord of all, and is over all, and though the world and the religious don't recognize it, His Kingdom and His Lordship have already begun. Either we are members of that world-shaking Kingdom, or we are not. This is what Scripture teaches. If we are, then we have His authority and His power within us, and we will live humbly as His servants in love, overcoming all the difficulties and trials in His Name together! And when He comes for us, we will be ready to receive Him, our lamps lit, dressed, and already rejoicing.

AT&T took to the CES stage today to take the wraps off of a handful of 4G LTE-enabled Android devices, but the carrier also took the opportunity to unveil a new LTE Windows Phone. Dubbed the HTC Titan II, the new handset features a 4.7-inch WVGA display, 1.5GHz Snapdragon processor, 16-megapixel camera, 720p video capture, 1.3-megapixel front-facing shooter, and AT&T 4G LTE connectivity. Expect it to hit shelves in the coming months.
The Titan II may not be a completely new handset when compared to the original Titan — which just came out under two months ago — the new model does pack in 4G LTE connectivity and that 16-megapixel shooter, features that could be pretty droolworthy for some. Of course, any photography nerd will tell you that megapixels don't tell the whole tale of how a camera will perform, so we'll have to wait until we can get our hands on the Titan II and put it through its paces before making any final judgments about it or its shooter. What do you all make of the Titan II? Could it be your next device, or will you wait to see what Nokia trots out on stage later today before making any commitments?

Business Opportunity MLM – What's the Reality?
Business Opportunity MLM- Picking the Right One
Nowadays many of us are out of work, many middle aged and older folks have been fired with no hope of getting other employment, while younger folk have no experience, and zip to show for a university education but a bunch of debt.
Despite all the doom and gloom those folks should notice that those that are employed spend billions on products and services each day, and it may be you promoting those products and earning a great living doing it, the business venture – MLM.
Business Opportunity MLM Works Just Like Most Other Companies
In any business there are folk at the bottom who earn the least and do all the work, and there's the people at the very top who earn the most and frequently do the least. MLM is no different, but as a business venture MULTI-LEVEL MARKETING is a far more level playing field than the business world.
In most firms, if you are fortunate, you'll get a couple of dollars a year as a pay raise if you get one at all, and it potentially won't be based on how hard you work. Gigantic business sticks to stringent pay scales, but successful network marketers can work hard and begin to earn enormous checks fast.
Once you have cracked the key to finding yourself good qualified leads and masses of them the sky's the limit earnings-wise.
But I Know Nothing about Managing a Business
The costs of buying into a good M.L.M business venture will rely wholly on the business, some start out extraordinarily low, others can cost thousands.
It'll still cost considerably less than a bricks and mortar business or a good franchise. Both of these kinds of business require large capital and continuing costs like rent, payroll, operating expenses, advertizing for example. If you are brooding about affiliate marketing, it isn't as straightforward as the so-called experts tell people. Affiliate payments can be particularly little and your life will be spent driving traffic to your web sites, creating articles, and trying to get your site on page 1 of Google.
To earn large quantities of money you'll have to outsource a lot of the work, which involves coordinating with outsourcers and paying them – there aren't enough hours in a week to run more than about ten affiliate websites correctly without help.
Choosing the Best Business Opportunity MLM
Selecting an MLM opportunity ought to be done with great care and plenty of research. Understand that if your business is going to successful it will be far better if you choose something you want to do or have experience with. With over four thousand MLM business opportunities now available, you've got a far better choice than if you were searching for another job! If you have had a job that you enjoyed and you've been laid off likelihood is you will be in a position to find an MLM business opportunity related to what you used to do.
Remember thinking that you might run your boss's company a lot better than he could well here's your chance. So many kids are leaving school these days with enormous debt to pay back and no hope for a good job. They too should look at all the MLM opportunities related to their field of study.
Work from home moms, retirees, businessmen and hobbyists shouldn't have any problem finding something they will love to earn a living doing. All it needs is the correct choice and an entrepreneurial attitude and you will succeed.
The Empower Network is an effortless means to get started online. This process allows you to have instant access to online advertising, and split-second access to your commissions. If you are wanting to find out how to market online, make a ton of money, and create a load of leads, then you must join the Empower Network today!

For St. Patrick's Day this year, I'm offering a little flash story. It involves two characters from my Journey Series (available at SpankingRomance.com). People seem to really like this couple, and I hope you will too. Be sure to leave a comment (right sidebar) in order to be entered into the draws.
Lucky in Love
Gabby made her way through the field slowly, enjoying the green grass dotted with patches of white-flowered clover as she headed toward the pecan grove. It was St. Patrick's Day and, later, there would be a little garden party to celebrate. It was a good time to take a moment of quiet before all the guests started arriving.
The grove was cool, sunlight shafting through the leaves like yellow prisms.
"I thought I'd find you here, l'il girl."
Her husband's deep voice startled her out of her reverie and she turned sharply. "Ace! You surprised me!" Her heart was beating fast, but it was as much due to his nearness as the momentary shock of seeing him. He really was the sexiest man.
Ace's moustache turned up at the corners as he stalked her, a predatory gleam in his eye. Gabby backed up against a tree, nervous excitement skittering along her limbs.
"You shouldn't ought to be out here all alone, darlin'. Anyone could come by and take advantage of you."
"I know I'm far from the house and stables, Ace," she said softly. "I wanted a walk."
He nodded and pressed her body to the tree as he leaned an arm above her head and bent toward her. "Happy St. Paddy's Day."
She smiled and licked her lips, staring at his mouth. His chest was warm against her breasts. "You're not wearing green."
"No, ma'am," he said, his Texas drawl greatly pronounced as it often was when he was excited. He bent toward her and inhaled deeply, smelling the scent of her floral shampoo.
Warm ribbons unfurled in Gabby's belly. She might smell like roses, but he smelled like leather and soap and, best of all, Ace.
"I could pinch you," she whispered. "That's the tradition."
"If you pinch me, I'll spank you, li'l girl. Make your sweet bottom all hot and tender."
Now it was Gabby's turn to smile. As she reached for the back of his hand, her fingers poised to grasp a bit of skin, she wriggled against him. That four-leaf clover had been lucky after all!
Ace and Gabby first make their appearance in Liv's Journey, but then they have their very own book, Ace-High Flush. They're also featured in the third Journey book, Spanking Her Highness. All the Journey books are M/F, contemporary, erotic, spanking romances. Links and excerpts are available here on my site, and the books are published by SpankingRomance.com (a division of Blushing Books). Blushing Books will release them to the general public (no membership required) later this year. If you like spanking stories with sexy romance themes, check out SpankingRomance.com for details.

I don't even think we have to be this detailed to know that Adelina did not deserve gold. But it's interesting and it just makes the cheating case even stronger. You're doing a really great analysis on this.Here is the clearest video you can get online of Sotnikova's performance: http://skatingvideoclips.com/getfile...9&sid=f69801fb
This link is best for viewing the performance with the least amount of commentary, though: http://www.speedyshare.com/GWRmH/Ade...OlympicsLP.wmv
Gkelly and I had three areas of disagreement it seems:
How can this count as a choctaw when she is on two feet? There isn't a step from one foot to the other here, there's a curve on two feet and then she changes edge and foot.
It doesn't come out on a RBO edge, the turn is to an inside edge and then it slides over to an outside edge.
And here, she has lost the inside edge before she turns, so it's a rocker.
And then one rule that needs to be clarified:
Edge changes have to be on a full curve to count as a step, though. Otherwise it's just fiddling back and forth on the edge and doesn't count for anything towards the level. She only does changes of edge on a curve in the clockwise direction.

Organization: Powell County Museum and Arts Foundation
Exhibition: "A Stitch In Time": Quilting throughout America
Date of Exhibition: April 27, 2017 – October 2018
Time of Exhibition:
Location of Exhibition: PEN Art Gallery
Cost: Free
Contact Person: Melanie Sanchez, Curator
Contact Info: (406)-846-3111 www.pcmaf.org – firstname.lastname@example.com

The museum Curator will be present to meet with the visitors, complimentary wine and hors d' oeuvres will be served.
The event will be free to the public. We hope to see you there!
Summary of Exhibition:
The Powell County Museum and Arts Foundation in Deer Lodge, MT is proud to present the upcoming exhibition "A Stitch in Time". The exhibition, consisting of a series of quilts from across America and time. As well as antique furniture, handmade sewing items, and antique accessories. The Powell County Museum and Arts Foundation is proud to present this exhibition by a generous contributor from Montana.
Quilts are beautiful pieces of art as well as extremely valuable historical artifacts because they traditionally have been made by women, which is how women left behind their history. Unlike men women left behind fewer written records. Now scholars can study quilts to trace changing cultural values, aesthetics, and technologies, thereby giving women their proper place in this story of Americas past.
Quilting traditions are particularly prominent in the United States, where the necessity of creating warm bedding met the paucity of local fabrics in the early days of the colonies. Imported fabric was very expensive, and local homespun fabric was labor-intensive to create and tended to wear out sooner than commercial fabric. It was essential for most families to use and preserve textiles efficiently. Saving or salvaging small scraps of fabric was a part of life for all households. Small pieces of fabric were joined together to make larger pieces, in units called "blocks." Creativity could be expressed in the block designs, or simple "utility quilts," with minimal decorative value, could be produced. Crib quilts for infants were needed in the cold of winter, but even early examples of beautiful baby quilts indicate the efforts that women made to welcome a new baby.
(Cr. 1885 Crazy Quilt)
PCMAF is a local, non-profit membership organization in Deer Lodge which operates the Old Montana Prison as a museum. PCMAF also oversees and operates the Montana Auto Museum, the Frontier Montana Museum, Yesterday's Playthings, Cottonwood City, the Powell County Museum and the PEN Art Gallery as part of the Old Prison Complex.

Hello all!
So this is my first post on here. Still kind of a newbie. A friend and myself will be going to Tijuana the end of the month and really was able to gain a lot of information from reading other threads, but still had a few questions. I have been to Tijuana a few times but after reading on here feel I may be missing out.
1. With a room at the Cascadas hotel above Hong Kong can you take girls to your room from bars that are owned by the same people (Chavelas, tropical)?
And are street girls allowed to go into your room?
2. I see some talk about gfe. Really just looking for bbbj. Does anyone have they best way to get this down at the clubs? Is there a particular way that you have found success or to ask.
Thanks for any help and look forward to giving a full trip report!
Forums » General » International Action » Tijuana trip end of the month
Hello all!
Since: Jul '15
1. All clubs other than Adelitas are owned by Hong Kong. Tropical, Chavelas, and few others. All will go to Cascadas hotel. Just mention before to them before you strike a deal. Some may not prefer walking across in those club clothes... Mostly will.
Street girls hanging outside of Cascadas will come to Cascadas. Some may decline that stand outside other hotels.
Adelitas girls will not come to Cascadas strictly.
2. GFE/BBBJ - YMMV there on your talks, your looks and your chemistry with the girl....All is possible with right amount of money and right amount of attitude that you show. Good thing about bar girls over escorts is - bar girls choose services that they are comfortable with. They can be flexible and vary with one client to another. Buy them drinks and talk through what you want. Look good, smell good. Talk good. Then sky is limit (not suggesting BBFS here, lol). Many times I got BBBJ without mentioning it with girl. Sometimes I got lame BBBJ with specifically mention of it. What I like about bargirls over escorts is that you can establish connection that guarantees good time in club itself than in room.
Will look forward to your trip report.
Awesome! Thanks for all the info I will now try to put it to good use down there.

It is not the activity of the wicked that will destroy, but rather the inactivity of the righteous...
There is a problem within the American church of all denominations that has been festering for years. The church carries a heavy responsibility of evangelizing the lost, preaching against social injustice and sin in society, dealing with divisions over issues of doctrine, same-sex marriage in the church, etc. In all of this, though, something important has been overlooked.
There is an alarming number of sexual molesters and offenders in churches across the nation that are currently targeting a child in their care. In addition, there are youth being allowed to consume media that is presenting a warped view of sexuality, thus priming them to fall into sexual sin. All the while, there are sermons and teachings about holiness and separation from the world. Many people wonder why as many as 80% of the children that grow up in church end up leaving the faith by college age. It is clear that there is an internal problem. Many Christians are on the outer battlefields, but many times there is neglect in "staying by the supplies"(1 Sam. 30:24), so to speak.
Our vision at Child Refuge is to address these issues eating away at the church in order to save the future of the church. That is our motto - saving our future, one life at a time. In children's ministry there is a saying…the church is always one generation away from extinction. If our children are leaving in droves once they're old enough to make their own choices, it is a dire sign. Are we to let molesters stop our future?
To educate and empower the church, we have strived to fill the pages of this site with helpful information about the various kinds of sexual molestation and abuse that can happen within the church and even society at large at the hands of offenders. We continue to develop a mentoring program for at risk youth and a way to connect victims with counselors. We have a prayer line available to those who have been victimized, to parents of victims, to those who see the warning signs of an abuser. We believe that prayer changes things and faith moves mountains. Simple prayers of faith can heal and save lives. In all that we do, we try to build upon the foundation of the Holy Bible. The Word is alive, and it's truth brings life.

Forsyth: Retirement would age me
Sir Bruce Forsyth has said he can never imagine retiring because he loves performing so much.
The 85-year-old TV presenter told the Mirror it is performing that keeps him feeling young as he hit back at the reports he slowed down filming of the first Strictly Come Dancing live show this year by being tired and confused.
Bruce defended himself saying: "It was so ludicrous I had to laugh when I read I was largely responsible for the show taking so long to record. If it was true I'd be fired by the BBC, if I hadn't already quit.
"I'd have needed carrying out on a stretcher because I'd have lost the plot.
"What slowed it up was filming from a new studio at Elstree for the first time.
"We were all exhausted by the end of it, though. Who wouldn't be after five hours in the studio? I wasn't so much tired as fed up we weren't out two hours earlier."
The veteran entertainer also insisted he had mispronounced the names of some of the foreign dancers on purpose as a joke, that had been scripted as part of the show. He also said he had told the audience to "shut up" as a joke because they were laughing at his pronunciation. And when had turned his back on the audience during filming it was choreographed, as a body double was set to jump in and do a back flip.
Bruce revealed: "I think people expect me to be going senile. I realise I'm probably the only 85-year-old man on TV doing live shows several hours a week for weeks on end but I'm still sharp. I've not lost my marbles at all. I do play marbles every morning, though, and I did lose one the other day under the bed. I had to get it using one of my golf clubs.
"If I'd retired earlier I'd have aged quicker and who knows where I'd be? Every year for 10 years I've been retiring from Strictly but it hasn't happened yet.
"I'll probably open a golf shop if I do, but I don't want to do nothing. I can't ever imagine stopping because performing is the thing I love the most."

Lark Books, 1996 - Crafts & Hobbies - 144 pages
It's a well-known fact that beads have been an integral part of societies for millennia. But did you know that certain beadweaving stitches have existed since the Egyptians? All of the classic stitches for the craft are explained here: peyote, brick, square, right-angle weave, African helix, netting, and chevron chain. Illustrations and detailed explanations make each one astonishingly simple to master. Go beyond the traditional to create three-dimensional objects--bowls, baskets, and figures--in addition to jewelry and accessories. See how to attach fringe, work the outside edge, and add spacer beads. Apply the techniques to 20 projects, ranging from simple brick-stitch "Ear Rings" of Saturn, to a handsome peyote-weave basket, to a gorgeous Maui Evening Bag in gold, ivory, and teal. A gallery of 100 color photos displays some of the best work done by contemporary bead artists, from a funky, richly colored cuffed basket to a fabulously beautiful gilded cage. Packed with information and inspiration, it's sure to become the beadwork bible. 144 pages, 150 color illus., 250 b/w illus., 8 1/2 x 10. NEW IN PAPERBACK
