Emergency Response
Intelligent Security and Fire can normally respond to an emergency call-out within 24 hours and very often the same day if contacted before midday. All of our Security Roller Shutter engineers have a minimum of 5 years experience and are familiar with all of the common manufacturers. All engineers' vans carry a stock of the most common replacement parts including motors, curtain, lath, rocker switches, springs etc, so that often the repair can be completed during a single visit.
If this is not possible, we will provide you with a written accurate parts and labour repair quotation together with correct lead times so that you can make an informed choice and have your gates up and running in the shortest possible time.
Shop shutters can become hard to open and close- normally, this can be remedied with some preventative maintenance. If left without maintenance, however, rust can leave the moving parts of a shutter out of commission. At the worst, this can leave a shutter failing to comply with HSE standards and the standards of your insurer.
Once your system is repaired and you're happy with its operation,
Intelligent Security and Fire
can offer a

Why won't my refrigerator ice dispenser dispense ice?
My in-door dispenses water just fine. My ice maker makes ice just fine. When I press the door dispenser for ice, I can hear the mechanism turning but no ice dispenses. I took the tray out to look behind it and nothing is loose or broken.

New Slate of Board Officers Elected
During the Annual Conference held last November in New Orleans, NAESCO Board of Directors elected new officers to a two-year term. Natasha Shah, Vice President of Southland Energy is the new Chairperson and leads the Board of Directors in oversight of NAESCO's management, communication and outreach initiatives, as well as advocacy efforts. Greg Collins, President of Energy Systems Group serves as Vice Chairman, Charles McGinnis, Senior Director of Energy Solutions for Johnson Controls serves as Corporate Secretary, and Scott Ririe, Managing Partner of Control Technology and Solutions will continue to serve as Treasurer. NAESCO is very appreciative of the hard work and leadership provided by the previous slate of officers which consisted of David Weiss as Chairman, Mike Kearney as Vice Chairman, Natasha Shah as Corporate Secretary, and Scott Ririe as Treasurer.
Accreditation Update
The second round of the Accreditation Program for 2015 culminated in the acceptance by the NAESCO Board of Directors of the recommendations of the NAESCO Accreditation Committee. The Board voted to renew the accreditation of the following companies that were up for renewal:
Congratulations to all of these companies who underwent a rigorous evaluation process by the NAESCO Accreditation Committee which is comprised of an independent body of reviewers.
Accredited Member Spotlight - Climatec
Congratulations to Climatec for recently completing the necessary requirements to become a NAESCO reaccredited company. Founded in 1975, Climatec is a leader in the application of advanced building technologies, delivering workplace comfort and energy efficiency. As a systems integrator, they capture the value of legacy systems and bridge building automation, life safety, security and enterprise energy management into seamless business solutions.
Climatec works in the education, healthcare, government, manufacturing, commercial office, public works, and hospitality sectors. Recent projects include Harrah's Casino in Lake Tahoe, Chase Field in Phoenix, and an ongoing, 53-building project at Edward's Air Force Base.
When asked, why NAESCO Accreditation is important to Climatec, Steve Siverson, President, said "Because NAESCO requires applicants and members undergo a rigorous evaluation of their project history, customer references and energy savings statistics in order to receive and maintain their accreditation, our customers commonly use this accreditation as a pre-qualification or minimum requirement. In doing so, our customers can employ this as a method for both eliminating unqualified ESCOs, and for ensuring respondents will be able to meet the rigorous financial and performance obligations required by traditional energy performance contracting programs. For this and many other reasons, Climatec feels that maintaining our accreditation by NAESCO is one of the best investments we can make in our business."
Climatec recently completed an extensive project for the Hesperia, CA Unified School District for infrastructure improvements and the modernization of heating and cooling systems for 300 classrooms as well as LED lighting retrofits and a computer power management system. Read a case study on this project here.

Ameresco and National Archives and Records Administration Commemorate
Award-Winning Energy Conservation Project
During the past decade, Ameresco has used a combination of federal contract vehicles to assist NARA in achieving their energy and sustainability goals, including the U.S. Department of Energy ESPC IDIQ and GSA Schedules. Energy conservation measures installed include a broad spectrum of high-efficiency and sustainable upgrades, including upgrades to the Energy Management System--a mission-critical system that maintains archival-quality storage of national historic records and artifacts.
Combined, approximately $23 million in improvements have been installed by Ameresco at Archives I in Washington, DC, and Archives II in Maryland. Measures include cool roofs, vegetative green roofs, LED lighting, high-efficiency HVAC, cogeneration, building controls optimization, water conservation, rainwater harvesting, mechanical upgrades, solar, and composting. The compost system at Archives II is producing approximately 1,000 pounds of compost daily which is used on site, thus reducing the need for purchasing mulch and hauling the waste.

NORESCO Provides Services for Eli Lilly Project Named New Jersey Association of
Energy Engineers Energy Project of the Year
Lilly launched an initiative in 2009 to reduce energy intensity at its Branchburg, New Jersey, bio-pharma campus. NORESCO provided an extensive energy audit of the six-building campus, producing a list of more than 70 energy conservation measures for consideration. Highlights of the project include high-efficiency lighting upgrades, building envelope improvements, boiler controls upgrades, process-water system improvements, air flow improvements and installation of a new Carrier high-efficiency chiller.
Lilly completed implementation of the energy conservation measures in 2014 in its 270,000 square-foot manufacturing facility, known as Building BB50. The diverse mix of improvements saves energy in base facility systems and in manufacturing processes. Energy bills reflected energy savings of $700,000 from overall implementation that reduced annual electric use by 4.5 million kilowatt-hours and annual natural gas use by more than 56,000 therms. The $2.1 million construction cost was partially offset by more than $600,000 in incentives through the New Jersey Office of Clean Energy Pay for Performance Program.

Industry Pays Attention to Energy Efficiency
ARIA Resort & Casino, a hotel on the Las Vegas Strip, said that it was adding 200,000 square feet of space. The $154 million project by the MGM Resorts International and World Development Corp. will be built to LEED Gold Standard, the company said. MGM last year installed a 6.4 MW solar array to serve The Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Las Vegas, which has the potential to provide 20 percent of its energy. MGM is part of the American Business Act on Climate Pledge and has pledged to reduce its energy consumption by 20 percent by 2020. Part of that initiative will be the conversion of 1.3 million lights to LEDs.
The article cited a study by Arvind Upadhyay and Sushil Mohan - both from the Business School of the University of Brighton, UK - and U.K.-based hotel development and investment consultant Celine Vadam breaking down typical hotel energy usage: 63 percent goes to room heating and hot water; 11 percent to the kitchen; 6 percent to air conditioning; 4 percent to lights, television and radio; 4 percent to laundry; 1 percent to ventilation and 11 percent to miscellaneous uses.
House, Senate Energy Policy Bills Include Provisions to Boost Performance
There has been "substantial progress" on agencies' use of performance-based contracts because of executive initiatives boosting performance contracting over the last few years, according to Gilligan. H.R. 8, passed by the House Dec. 3, and S. 2012, placed on the Senate calendar last September, requires agencies to consider energy savings performance contracting and utility energy services contracting to meet new performance goals related to energy information technology systems. The original bills took a similar approach to making federal buildings more energy efficient by encouraging, but not mandating, agency use of ESPCs and UESCs to meet energy efficiency goals.
They also would require annual reports from agencies updating the status of energy contracts, including their investment value, a comparison of guaranteed energy savings to actual savings achieved in the previous year, and year-ahead projections for new performance-based contracts.
The reports also are to include the rationale for failing to implement previous plans for these contracts. Asking agencies why "they didn't do these projects" could prove to be "really interesting," Gilligan said, particularly in light of the 2009 federal building audits identifying $8 billion to $9 billion in energy cost savings over a 10-year period.
The CBO Scoring requirements, however, were stripped from the House bill
before it went to the floor.
Schafer also said that Senate legislation triggering use of ESPCs is now scored as budget-neutral -- the same approach the administration takes -- under changes in the joint budget resolution passed earlier this year. This allows for the provisions in S. 2012 clarifying ESPC statutory requirements and extending federal energy reduction goals without providing for offsets, she said.
Energy Use by
Federal Agencies Continues to Decline
In FY 2014, energy consumption by the U.S. Department of Defense made up 78% of total federal energy use. Civilian agencies such as the U.S. Postal Service, the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, and the U.S. Department of Energy accounted for the next highest percentages of total federal energy use at 5%, 3%, and 3%, respectively.
The Energy Independence Act of 2007 included energy reduction goals for federal agencies, including targets for reducing energy intensity and fossil fuel consumption in buildings, reducing petroleum consumption in transportation fleets, and increasing the use of alternative fuels. An Executive Order established additional federal government goals to reduce energy consumption and energy-related emissions. Among the goals are:
Renewable and alternative energy sources: A target of 25% of federal building energy use to be sourced from renewable and alternative sources by FY 2025, with an intermediate goal of 10% by FY 2016. In FY 2014, 6.1% of the energy used in federal buildings came from renewables.
Greenhouse gas emissions from vehicle fleets: A 30% decrease in per-mile greenhouse gas emissions from agency fleet vehicles by FY 2025 compared with an FY 2014 baseline. Over the previous five fiscal years, greenhouse gas emissions from the federal fleet have fallen by a total of 3%.
Energy intensity: An annual 2.5% reduction through FY 2025 in federal building energy intensity, measured in Btu per square foot compared to the FY 2015 baseline. From FY 2003 to FY 2014, the federal government reduced building energy intensity an average of 1.9% per year.
Water intensity: A 36% reduction in water intensity in federal buildings, measured in gallons per square foot, by FY 2025 compared with an FY 2007 baseline. Federal agencies have already reduced water intensity by 21% compared with the baseline.
CaliforniaFIRST Program Launches in San Bernardino County
SB 350 Signed into Law Making Great Strides for Energy Efficiency in
Governor Jerry Brown, joined by a diverse group of utilities and industry partners, made history recently by signing into law California's most ambitious climate goals to date. The Clean Energy and Pollution Reduction Act of 2015 (also known as Senate Bill 350) calls for a 50 percent increase in building efficiency by 2030. Adopted in conjunction, Assembly Bill 802 provides the means to meet this goal by changing the way energy savings in buildings are measured. Combined, these two mandates expand the opportunity for Californians to pursue energy efficiency as a key part of reaching the state's overall climate goals.
Using technology to advance energy efficiency
By allowing utilities to pair meter data with data analytics to find and measure savings, Assembly Bill 802 empowers customers to reduce usage in their energy system as a whole, rather than focusing narrowly on replacement of equipment. Customers will be able to better track how they reduce energy waste in commercial buildings, as well as at home, and be incentivized for doing so.
Utilities will play a major role as trusted advisors for customers, leveraging the latest in data analytics, energy modeling, and other technologies. In this role, California utilities will need to:
A case study on meter-based savings
With advanced meter data analytics, PG&E will increasingly be able to tailor recommendations for each and every customer, as well as track the impacts of energy efficiency at the individual building level. Both bills pave the way for PG&E customers to become even more efficient through no-to-low cost operational and behavioral changes.
Building a better California through energy efficiency
SB 350 and AB802 pave the way for utilities to do more to help customers save both energy and money with energy efficiency programs - working together to build a better California for the future.

Under 11's : Crowle Searchers 7-2 Inkberrow Eagles
Crowle 7 - 2 Inkberrow
We started under constant pressure and made some goal line clearances. However on the break Crowle could not match our pace and with 2 fine goals from Dom we went in at half time 2-1 in the lead. However with no subs we soon tired and we could not withstand the constant pressure. Man of the match Will for continuing to encourage his team when heads dropped
And now to the Under 10's...

Under 10's : Welford 1-3 Inkberrow Eagles
A match rearranged, and the coach under work pressure, meant that the team bowled out of the cars at Welford and started the match 5 minutes later. After the initial adjustment to time on a heated seat to playing football at an unfamiliar venue, the team kicked off. Some early forays brought no reward and then an increasingly threatening Welford scored, overlapping and finding a spare man to drill the ball powerfully beyond the Inkberrow keeper. 1-0 to Welford. The team responded, driving forward and forcing a corner. Harry S drove a high inswinging corner into the Welford goal, hitting the inside of the post and ricocheting into the centre of the goalmouth for Ed to poach a simple tap in. Several minutes later, another corner, same side, this time high into the middle of the area was beautifully headed down into the net, again by Ed. And so the team reached half time 2-1 in the lead. Disappointingly for the team the coach had forgotten any form of sweet, biscuit, food and so they had to content themselves with refreshments only. The 2nd half was a similar story. Both sides could have scored, but chances went begging, Welford somehow contriving to miss when the ball bobbled across the area, several near misses with the swing of the boot. And then Inkberrow snatched a third. Increasingly using the wings to cause concern in the Welford defence a low cross was met by Luka, and just as the Welford keeper seemed likely to stop it a faint flick off Ed's boot directed the ball just out of his reached and into the net....the Inkberrow visiting support went wild! And now it was more back to the walls defending, expertly marshalled by Tom, with the confident keeper looming behind adding a reassurance to the teams efforts. And the team saw it out to the final whistle. A great performance and result following several weeks of Easter Eggs and downtime! Man of the match was Ed for his hattrick, although special mention must also go to Harry S for his fantastic corner taking - two wonderful assists!
So, with one game left to play, Inkberrow Eagles are joint second with Broadway Utd Youth, who they now play at home to decide who takes the 2nd place conclusively this Saturday. Come on you Eagles!

The Other Side Of The Tracks
by Kristi (email@example.com)
and Frederick "Dice" Casden (email@example.com)
In the backstage area of a SmackDown TV taping, the 1950's style
greaser Deuce is admiring the perfect shine on his own 1957 Ford Fairlane
Convertible. Deuce is wearing black jeans, a white t-shirt and black leather
jacket as well as a pair of black sunglasses. Deuce flicks up the collar of
his leather jacket, "This car is unbelievable! OH!" Deuce says as he reaches
into the car to flick the switch for the top of the car to fold back. Deuce
then hops into the driver's seat and turns on the engine, "Now where the heck
is that Bensonhurst flake Domino at... we gotta roll..." Deuce says with a
joking tone as he then turns off the engine and lifts himself up from the
driver's seat in order sit on the headrest of it. He looks around as he takes
off his sunglasses and tosses them onto the dashboard. Deuce looks over
shoulder and sees his strawberry blonde-haired girlfriend Cherry rolling
towards his car on her light pink colored roller skates. Deuce smirks,
"Un-fucking-believable..." Deuce says before calling out, "Hey Cherry...
where's your brother at, we gotta blow this pop stand..."
The adorable roller-skating Diva on SmackDown, Cherry, casually skates over
to the 1957 Ford Fairlane Convertible that her boyfriend Deuce is sitting in.
"Hey Deuce..." Cherry says cutely as she smacks her chewing gum around in her
mouth as she waves at her greaser boyfriend while she cutely bounces on her
light pink roller skates. Cherry skates up the 1957 Convertible and places
her hands sweetly on the top edges of the driver's side door. "Domino said
that he like...needed to take care of some...like you know business..."
Cherry says as she presses her shoulders up into a shrug "He kinda...like you
know got mad...cause...you know someone was lookin' at me.." Cherry says with
a soft smile as she's dressed in a short light pink short and a tight-fitting
light pink top.
Deuce laughs a bit, "Hey... I can't blame him for beating up some piece of
Spam who's trying to check you out..." Deuce says as he slides both of his
hands against his greased up, jet black hair, "Because you're absolutely
perfect baby..." Deuce says as she smiles at his hot, strawberry-blonde
haired girlfriend.
Cherry bites down on her bottom lip and blushes as she smiles softly "Awww
Deuce...you know...I really shouldn't be hangin' around with you bad boys on
the other side of the tracks..." Cherry says as she locks her sweet, innocent
eyes with her greaser boyfriend.
Deuce holds his right hand up, "Whoa, whoa... you know you can hang around
me... me and your brother go back so far it's not even funny..." Deuce says
as he leans down a bit to open the drivers side door so that Cherry can get
into the classic Convertible.
Cherry smiles as she smacks her chewing gum inside of her mouth "Awww...but
Deuce...you know I like the bad boys..." Cherry says with a soft, sweet smile
as she slides into the driver's seat before sliding on over to the passenger
side seat.
Deuce closes the driver's side door and he slips down from the headrest of
the driver's side seat to sit down on it, "Yeah I know you like the bad
boys... and I'm the baddest boy around..." Deuce says with a smirk as he
puts his right arm around Cherry's shoulders to pull her close.
Cherry bites down on her bottom lip "You know Deuce...you know what would be
like...totally cool?" Cherry says with a soft smile as she sweetly glances
over at her greaser boyfriend while continuing to smack her chewing gum
around in her mouth.
Deuce smirks a bit, "No baby I don't... why don't you tell me what would
be totally cool..." Deuce says as he slides his left hand through his
greased-up, jet-black hair.
"Well...if we like...you know...made this classic car rock like we always
do...when we head to the other side of the tracks..." Cherry says as she
presses her soft lips together.
Deuce smirks once again, "Baby-girl... I like how you think...that
idea is so terrific... it needs it's own toll-free number... 1-800
Un-fucking-believable... OH!" Cherry smiles as she scoots a bit closer
towards Deuce as they sit in the front two seats. Cherry reaches down
with her left hand and places her hand gently against the crotch of his
black jeans before she starts to gently rub her left hand against her
greaser boyfriend's crotch.
Deuce leans forward a bit and takes off his black leather jacket, which he
then tosses into the back seat of the 1957 Ford Fairlane. "Mmmm baby... you
know what that does to me... that'll get my power drill working..." Deuce
says as Cherry continues to move her left hand against his jean covered
Cherry glances at Deuce as she cutely smacks her chewing gum around inside
of her hot mouth "I know baby...that's why I'm doing it..." Cherry says with
a soft laugh before she slides her left hand up to Deuce's belt and begins
to unbuckle his belt from around his waist.
Deuce licks his lips, "Damn baby... don't be too shy about what you're
doing..." Deuce laughs as Cherry successfully unbuckles his belt. The
black-haired Greaser pulls off his white t-shirt, revealing his smooth,
toned and tanned upper body, and he tosses his t-shirt into the backseat
of the car along side his jacket. Cherry slides Deuce's belt through the
loops on his black jeans, removing the belt from his waist before she
lowers her left hand back down to the crotch of Deuce's jeans as she starts
to unzip and unbutton his black jeans before she starts to pull them down
from his waist. Deuce lifts himself up a bit from the driver's seat as his
strawberry blond-haired girlfriend pulls down his black jeans from his
waist. Deuce is not wearing any type of boxers, so his large, thick eleven
inch cock pops free from his jeans when Cherry gets them down far enough.
Cherry smiles "Mmmm...ohh Deuce..." Cherry says as she gently wraps her soft
right hand around Deuce's hard, thick eleven inch cock as she cups her left
hand with Deuce's ball sack. The adorable roller-skating Diva begins to
gently rub her boyfriend's ball sack while she strokes his shaft with her
right hand.
Deuce settles himself back down on the driver's seat as Cherry's right hand
moves up and down on his hard, thick eleven inch cock, "Mmmmm ohhh baby...
sometimes when you touch... the honesty is just too much..." Deuce moans as
he feels the palm of Cherry's left hand against his balls as she gently
caresses them with her hand. Cherry smiles as she smacks her chewing gum
around in her mouth before she starts to lower her strawberry-blond haired
head down the cock of the greaser boyfriend. Cherry removes her left hand
from Deuce's ball sack as she presses her soft, wet tongue against the head
of Deuce's cock before she starts to slowly lower her tongue down his long,
hard shaft as she holds his cock steady with her right hand. "Mmmmm... ohhh
baby..." Deuce moans and tilts his head back completely against the headrest
of the driver's seat as he feels Cherry's soft, wet, innocent tongue against
his cock as her warm saliva drips down his stiff, hard prick.
Cherry closes her eyes as she slides her soft, wet tongue down to Deuce's
large ball sack before she starts to slowly slide her tongue back up his
shaft, licking her greaser boyfriend's hard thick cock. Cherry lifts her
head back to the tip of Deuce's cock before she opens her hot mouth and
lowers her head down on his cock. Cherry presses her soft lips around his
shaft and begins to slowly bob her head on her boyfriend's cock, while
keeping the chewing gum in her hot mouth. "Awww... mmmm yea baby... now
that's what I'm diggin... bob ya head on that apple..." Deuce moans as he
places his right hand on the top of Cherry's head as she lifts and lowers
her head on his thick hard cock.
"Mmmm...mmm..." Cherry softly moans around Deuce's cock as she starts to
slightly bob her head on her boyfriend's cock at quicker rate. Cherry presses
her lips tighter around his shaft as she lowers her head further down on his
shaft, taking him deeper into her hot, sweet mouth as her chewing gum begins
to lightly stick against Deuce's shaft.
"Ahhhh hey... hey baby-girl... don't choke while you're down there..."
Deuce moans and laughs a bit as he plays a bit with her cute pony-tail as she
deep throats his cock. Deuce uses his legs and shifts on his seat a bit in
order to get his jeans completely down to his feet where he then pulls his
legs completely out of them. Cherry flicks her soft, wet tongue against
Deuce's shaft as she taps her chewing gum off of his hard, thick shaft before
she starts to smoothly and easily bob her head quickly, up and down, on his
hard, thick greaser cock. The adorable roller-skating Diva twirls her wet
tongue against his shaft as she lowers her head completely down on his cock,
before lightly lifting her head halfway up on his hard shaft.
"Awww... damn baby-girl..." Deuce says with a smirk, "You act sweet... but
when we get on the other side of the tracks... you're really quick to have a
good time..." Deuce says when Cherry sits completely up on the passenger
seat. The jet-black haired greaser then leans over and starts to lift up his
strawberry-blond haired girlfriend's tight-fitting light pink top.
Cherry blushes and bites down on her bottom lip as she raises her arms up
while Deuce removes her light pink tank top to reveal her hot, large and
round tits. Cherry smiles as she leans back a bit in her seat while Deuce
starts to move down towards Cherry's short skirt.
"Mmmm damn baby girl... you are perfect..."Deuce says as he looks at
Cherry's hot, large, round tits as he places his hands on Cherry's short
skirt and begins to slide it down her smooth, lightly tanned legs.
Cherry shyly lowers her head "Awww Deuce...you're such a bad boy..." Cherry
says as she gently smacks her chewing gum around in her mouth while her hot,
smoothly shaven pussy becomes exposed as Deuce slides the skirt down from her
waist and down her smooth, tanned and stunning legs.
Deuce smirks a bit, "Yeah and?" Deuce says with a grin as he completely
removes Cherry's short skirt from her legs and drops it on the floor of the
car. The tanned, black haired greaser puts his arms around Cherry in order
to lift her up and he brings her over to him, and with her facing him he
lowers her smooth, hot pussy down onto his thick hard cock.
Cherry bites down on her bottom lip "Ohhh Deuce.." Cherry softly moans as
she's lowered onto her greaser boyfriend's hard, thick cock. Cherry gently
places her soft hands against his tanned, smoothly toned chest before she
starts to gently rock back and forth on his greaser cock.
"Mmmm yeah baby-girl..." Deuce moans and smirks as he places his hands
underneath Cherry's cute round ass and begins to have the sweet, innocent
sister of Domino lightly bounce on his dick. Deuce shifts back and forth on
driver's seat as he starts to thrust his shaft up into Cherry's warm tight
"Ohhhh...ohhh...Deuce you're bad..." Cherry says with a soft, cute laugh
as she lightly bounces up and down on Deuce's hard, thick cock while she
smoothly rocks back and forth at a gradually increasing rate. "Ohhh Deuce
baby...you're the best!"
Deuce grins as he feels Cherry's hot body come down on his cock, and he
squeezes her ass with his strong hands, "Damn straight I am baby girl...
that's the word from the freakin' bird..." Deuce moans as he agrees with
Cherry's opinion of him.
Cherry locks her soft, sweet eyes with Deuce as she smacks her chewing gum
around in her mouth as she quickly rocks back and forth on Deuce's hard
greaser cock. "Ohhhh Deuce baby! Ohhh yess!" Cherry moans as she starts to
gently slam down on Deuce's cock at a quick rate while she bounces up and
down on his shaft.
Deuce leans his head back against the headrest of the driver's seat as Cherry
rides his cock wildly, "Mmmm... ahhh yea baby girl... pop that clutch cause
I'm gonna razz your berries in a sec..." Deuce moans as he thrusts his cock
up into Cherry's hot pussy.
Cherry grits her teeth as she tilts her head back and closes her eyes "Ohhhh
Deuce!" Cherry moans as she sharply grinds her pussy against his shaft as she
quickly bounces and rocks back and forth on her greaser boyfriend's cock.
Deuce grinds his teeth together as he puts his hands on Cherry's hips and
lifts her off of his thick hard cock, "Mmmm damn baby girl... you got the
most of everything..." Deuce says as puts Cherry back on the passenger side
seat, and positions her on her knees. He then moves himself so that he's
kneeling on the driver's side seat and he pushes Cherry forward slightly so
that she puts her hands on top of the passenger's side door. "Get ready
baby... we're going to crank up the jets..." Deuce says before he slides
his thick, hard cock back into Cherry's warm, tight pussy.
"Ohhhh Deuce...you bad boy..." Cherry moans with soft laugh as she lightly
rocks forward as Deuce slides his hard, thick cock into his girlfriend's
tight, warm pussy. "Mmmm Deuce baby..." Cherry moans as she gently pushes
herself back against Deuce.
Deuce places his hands on Cherry's round, sexy waist as he starts thrusting
his cock in and out of Cherry's warm, tight pussy, "Mmmmm yeah... mmmmm yea
baby-girl..." Deuce moans and grunts as he pulls Cherry back against him so
that her cute round ass hits against his toned waist.
"Ohhhh...mmm yeah Deuce!" Cherry moans as she starts to rock quicker back
and forth on her knees as Deuce thrusts his cock deep into his girlfriend's
tight, warm pussy. Cherry glances over her shoulder and smiles at Deuce as
she quickly rocks back against Deuce's hard cock.
Deuce grins as Cherry looks back at him, "Mmmmm... we're really tearing ass
baby girl..." Deuce groans as sweat drips down his toned hot body. Deuce
quickens the pace of his thrusts and his ball sack swings and smacks against
Cherry's skin as the two of them fuck in the front seats of his 1957 Ford
"Ohhhh...ohhhh Deuce baby!" Cherry moans loudly as she begins to lightly
sweat as she starts to roughly slam back against her greaser boyfriend "Ohhhh
"Ahhhh... mmmm yeah... ahhh yea baby girl..." Deuce groans as he slams his
cock deeply into Cherry's pussy, "Fuck... gonna freakin' pop in ya Cherry..."
Deuce grunts as he keeps Cherry another hard, stuff thrust before his cock
starts to erupt with his warm cum inside of Cherry's pussy.
"Ohhhh...mmm yeah Deuce baby..." Cherry softly moans as she bites down on her
bottom lip as she feels her boyfriend's warm cum spray inside of her tight
Deuce keeps thrusting his cock in and out of Cherry's pussy as he fills her
up with his warm cum, "Mmmm yea..." Deuce moans as he slows his thrusts down
until he stops cumming and then he pulls his dick out of Cherry's pussy.
Cherry presses her soft lips together before she cutely glances back at
Deuce and she smacks her chewing gum around in her mouth "Awww Deuce baby...I
like...you know...like know you're the only one for me..." Cherry says with
a cute smile.
Deuce grins, "I know that baby girl... we're jacketed..." Deuce says as he
pats Cherry's ass with his cum spent cock, "Now... when's Domino getting
here...we gotta split..."

In Memoriam: Naomi Wulf, 1964-2012
Naomi Wulf's many American friends were deeply saddened to learn of her death on April 17, 2012, after her courageous, decade-long struggle with cancer. Naomi was a key figure in the American Studies community in France and throughout Europe. Born in 1964 of mixed Franco-American parentage, Naomi promoted a broader and deeper understanding of her two countries through her scholarship and her warm personal connections with fellow scholars.
Naomi completed her PhD. under the mentorship of the distinguished Americanist Elise Marienstras at Université Paris Diderot-Paris 7 and first taught at Paris-12, now the Université Paris-Est Créteil; in 2007, she was named professor of American History at the Universit? Sorbonne Nouvelle-Paris 3. At the time of her death Naomi was revising her prize-winning doctoral dissertation for publication as a book, "Democracy in America": Orestes Brownson, American Critic of Jacksonian America. Naomi was convinced that this brilliant and eccentric preacher, social reformer and Catholic convert offered an illuminating counterpoint to Alexis de Tocqueville's famous contemporaneous account of the new nation's political culture in his classic Democracy in America. Naomi worked on her project for many years, exploring Brownson's Jeffersonian roots as a fellow at the Robert H. Smith International Center for Jefferson Studies (Monticello) in the Fall of 2010.
Naomi had a genius for collaboration and conference-organizing. Co-author of two monographs with her mentor Elise Marienstras, Naomi also edited volumes of conference proceedings and special issues of journals with Marienstras, Marie-Jeanne Rossignol, and Nathalie Caron. With Caron, her dear friend and now professor at Paris-Est Créteil, Naomi published "Les Lumières américaines: continuitiés et renouveau" in the on-line journal Transatlantica in 2009. This important essay was awarded the David Thelen Prize for the best foreign-language article on American history at the April meeting of the Organization of American Historians in Milwaukee and will be appear in English translation in The Journal of American History in 2013.
Naomi Wulf will be sorely missed by everyone who had the privilege of knowing her.

Thus saith the Lord God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob
Thus say I unto thee and this Nation in as far as the devolved Assembly of Northern Ireland is concerned and in as far as one of its parties seeking to aid the UK government that, that party along with all the others should seek to get their own house in order before seeking to aid anyone else in getting their house in order even that of the present UK government. For how can a party that is and has been so divisive and intransigent in its attitude towards other parties in Northern Ireland and being unwilling to compromise on power sharing and healing the divisions between the Northern Irish Parties so that the Northern Irish Assembly can get back to fulfilling its mandate and duty to the people of Northern Island as its MP's have been elected and entrusted by the people of Northern Ireland on their behalf to responsibly governing that Nation, help the UK's government to get its house in order?
This is the Word of the Lord God to thee
from the prophet of the Lord

History of sugar Whereas sugar had been around in minute quantities for several thousand years, it was practically unknown and formed an insignificant part of the average diet in the Classical civilizations of Egypt, Greece and Rome. The side effects from natural remedies are usually less profound and there are no known addictions. The archeologist can go on to create modern duplicates of the tools and try to use those duplicates in various ways, in order to make hypotheses about what the tools were used for in the past. The most important thing to remember is size.

You would think that flying off the handle and belting out coarse language would be bad for for your health, but according to new research, it's the other way around.
In his recently published study, Dr. Michael Phillip, a psychologist and lecturer at New Zealand's Massey University, argues that swearing out loud can provide relief from "short-term social distress." This is defined, he says, by things such as lovers quarrels or minor social situations that result in stress.
Dr. Phillips tested his theory on 70 participants that were split into two different groups, then tested for feelings of social pain and sensitivity to physical pain. After they had written either about an inclusive or a distressing social event to induce corresponding emotions, they were randomly assigned to either swear aloud or say a non-swear word aloud.
RELATED: Here's why rocking a "Dad Bod" could be more deadly than you think
"The results suggest that socially distressed participants who swore out loud experienced less social pain than those who did not," he said, adding that the practice also helped to soften physical pain felt by the subjects. "Previous research suggests that social stressors, like rejection and ostracism, not only feel painful but also increase peoples' sensitivity to physical pain…social distress feels painful because both social and physical pain is biologically coupled."
In layman's terms, swearing alleviated both physical and social pain by diluting the intensity of that pain and distracting the person from it. But Dr. Phillips warns that swearing won't offer much help to people under more serious emotional distress.
So the next time you turn into the incredible Hulk and let loose with the "F" bombs, you can take comfort in the knowledge that you're actually doing yourself some good.

79 - No. 9
September 2008
Another Ask the Pastor Question–Animals in heaven?
The next "Ask the Pastor" sermon will be Sunday, Oct. 5, but I selected a question to address in this month's Messenger.
Will our pets be with us in heaven? This is a frequently asked question. I suspect the most frequent answer among clergy is "No, because animals don't have immortal souls." Those who have looked deeply into the eyes of a beloved dog or cat may not find such an answer satisfying–because in those eyes there is something akin to a soul! Something that relates, communicates, and connects with us humans.
For the Christian, however, we look for answers, not in our animals' eyes, but in the Holy Scriptures. Scripture never directly addresses the question of whether animals have souls or not. It does say that we humans are made in the image of God (Genesis 1:28)–a privilege no animal enjoys. However, the Bible also indicates that God cares about animals–the story of Noah's Ark, for instance, where God provides for the animals to be saved from the flood. The story of Jonah, too, shows God's care for animals–God sends Jonah to proclaim impending judgement on Ninevah, so that the city may be saved; and God explains Jonah's mission in these words:
And should I not be concerned about Ninevah, that great city, in which there are
more than a hundred and twenty thousand persons who do not know their right
hand from their left, and also many animals? (Jonah 4:11).
So God cared about the animals of Ninevah as well as the people. Jesus also reminds us:
Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them falls to the ground
apart from your Father. (Matthew 10:29)
Animals are given great dignity when they are used to symbolize Jesus the Saviour. He is the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world (John 1:35). He is the great Lion of Judah (Revelation 5:5). He compares Himself to a chicken who shields its young from danger (Luke 13:34). God is likened to a bear who ferociously protects her cubs (Hosea 13:8). The Holy Spirit appears in the form of a dove (Mark 1:10). Outside of the Scriptures, Christian art envisions Christ as a pelican who feeds her children with her own blood (an image found in many older Lutheran churches), and the risen Lord as a butterfly. So animals have a very positive role in Christianity.
Instead of asking, "Do they have souls?" I prefer to ask "Do animals have a future?" I look at a passage like this from the prophet Isaiah, where he describes the harmony in nature after Christ's return:
The wolf shall live with the lamb, the leopard shall lie down with the kid, the calf
and the lion at the fatling together. (Isaiah11:6)
Since most of our pets are either cats or dogs, it's interesting to note that this passage includes both the ultimate canine (the wolf) and the ultimate feline (the lion). So maybe cats and dogs have a place in God's future after all! (It would be hard to understand if he created them merely to discard them eternally). One could, however, argue that the language in Isaiah is symbolic. There is, however, a clearly non-symbolic passage indicating that all creation somehow has a role in the future God has planned for us:
The creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God...the
creation itself will be set from its bondage to decay and share in the glorious liberty
of the sons of God. (Romans 8:19,21).
It seems, then, that God has some kind of future in store for the animals in His creation.
A lady once said to Billy Graham, "If my cat Fluffy isn't in heaven with me, then I won't be happy there." And Dr. Graham replied: "If Fluffy is absolutely necessary for your happiness in heaven, then Fluffy will be there." A wise response–heaven is a place of perfect happiness, and whatever we need for our happiness will be there. What Dr. Graham left unsaid in his sensitive and caring response to the lady is that the only thing we absolutely need for happiness is God. I do not absolutely need my dogs or my cats–all I really need is God.
But I love my dogs and cats, and if I have them in heaven, then I will be delighted. Looking into those eyes, I see something that I cannot imagine vanishing eternally. If it turns out that it does vanish eternally, then I will accept it as part of God's plan, cherish my animals' memory, and enjoy the vision of God forever. But I think both Scripture and the desire of our hearts give us hope that our animal friends have a continuing role in the future God has planned for us. It's not the kind of certainty that we have about our own future with God–the Scriptural evidence isn't strong enough for certainty. But it's a reasonable hope, based on God's love for His creation–why would He create such beauty only to allow it to pass away eternally?
There is, by the way, a marvelous passage in C. S. Lewis' The Problem of Pain that deals with this question. He takes the issue seriously and offers some interesting speculation, and I refer you to his work for further illumination.
And I end by pointing out that every creature testifies to the greatness of God. The dog, the cat, the rabbit, the hamster, the lizard–in their complexity and beauty, they point to a great and wise creator. And that creator has shared His very self with us in Jesus Christ, the true Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world.
God loves you and so do I!

I remember watching the musical Oliver and the child sings this song "where is love?" and it is really heart-wrenching song, the production I saw had written as a sign on the workhouse wall the words "GOD IS LOVE", as the work houses at that time were very proud of their Christianity, but showed no little love for the people they served.
This is so at odds with the words of Jesus who said "by this all people will know you are my disciples that you love one another" and "Love one another as I have loved you", "Love your neighbour as yourself".
John the apostle writes in his first letter "God is love and those who live in love, live in God and God lives in them".
Paul says "If I do not have love I am a clanging gong or a resounding symbol…" and ends by saying "If I have not love I am nothing", talking about all the great and worthy things we can do in acts of service but if they are not rooted and grounded in love they are worth nothing at all.
Yet, why do our Churches often feel so unloving?
Philip Yancey's quoted a young man wrestling with his sexuality in one of his books and he said "Sometimes it is easier to get sex on the streets than a hug in a "Christian Church".
I know love can be expressed in different ways, but I wonder whether the people in our Church and our fellowships feel loved? Do they feel loved by us?
Perhaps there is something you can do to bless someone who needs to feel that loving touch of God?
Perhaps too, you can be part of re-writing a churches DNA, and living out a different life that loves and is gracious even when it really really tough.
For me, there are people I struggle to love in my Churches, and sometimes I find it almost impossible to give them communion, but when I feel like this I need to be reminded of how much God loves me -and I know I screw up and let him down loads-, which enables me to pass them the bread and the wine, knowing that (to quote George Herbert) "It is love that bade us welcome"…

text: jjread 0 Posted March 26, 2018 Hello All, I am hoping to get some suggestions from people that know a lot more about this stuff than I do... so that likely means almost anyone on this board. There are some 8 year Heaven Hill cask maturing in Scotland. This is not as uncommon as it might sound, given the reliance of the Scotch Whisky Industry upon ex-Bourbon casks. The story goes that an order for the casks had been placed and so all of the the casks have been emptied into a tank. Subsequently, the client had canceled the order, so the whiskey was refilled into casks previously holding the whiskey for eight years... so now all of the casks are essentially the same. Now for the question. When I sampled the whisky last summer it had an ABV of 63.1% and was fairly light in color and intensity. It is clearly a balanced Bourbon, but the darker color and deep caramel, vanilla notes that one might expect from an 8 year Kentucky Bourbon are not quite there. I have assumed that this lightness is due to the cask maturing in the much more mild climate of Scotland rather than varying extremes of Kentucky over the years. In order to deepen the whisky's color and intensity, I was considering suggesting that it be put into a new virgin oak cask for a few years... but I don't want to make anything to extreme or out of balance. Some are thinking of putting it in an ex-Islay whisky cask or a sherry cask and while that could make for something fun, I am trying to suggest something that would keep it more traditional (or as traditional as one can while aging in Scotland). I understand that this is all conjecture, but I would be curious to know peoples thoughts. Thanks much! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Graphic Design Studio Updates
This petition had 182 supporters
The Graphic Design studio classrooms of Iowa State's College of Design are in need of updating. They have not received renovations or updates for at least 5 years. The existing studios are unsuitable for the students and faculty of the Graphic Design program. There are a number of problems including lack workspace, cluttered studios, lack of resources, and a lack of accessibility to studios after class. That makes the studios unsuitable for effective use by students and faculty in the Graphic Design Department.
Graphic Design, out of all the design programs at the College of Design, is the program with the least amount of space per student out of all the programs within the College of Design. The space that the students of Graphic are provided creates distraction, doesn't provide adequate space for personal or collaborative work, and is rarely accessible to students outside of classroom time. Faculty frequently express that Graphic Design is more than a relationship with a computer, however our studios do not reflect that belief what so ever. Our tables are small and provide minimal space to work upon and class time often feels suffocating due to the close quarters we are required to work in. There are frequently not enough chairs in our studios for everyone to even sit. The hanging electrical outlets are distracting and some do not work properly or even at all. Our studios are also constantly cluttered with items that are not needed or utilized including previous projects, miscellaneous objects, etc.
This means that the little space that we are given is further reduced, meaning that the estimated square footage of space for each graphic student (approximately 82 sq ft) is less than the already low estimation. Graphic Design studios are also frequently locked after hours and students are rarely provided with the codes to enter them. Graphic Design students are frequently locked out of the only workspaces dedicated to them.
Architecture, Industrial Design, Interior Design, and Landscape Architecture all have studios with greater amounts of table space as well as environments that encourage collaboration. These programs have at least one year of studio where the studio classes are all taught within a single room that is divided up by class. This not only encourages collaboration, but it strengthens the community of the program as well. The Graphic Design program, however, does not have a single dedicated space that allows all of the students within a graduating class of Graphic to work simultaneously. The largest Graphic studio still only holds on average 25 working students at a time, which is less than a third of Graphic Design graduating classes. On top of already low estimates for space per Graphic Design student, one of the four studios dedicated to Graphic Design undergraduates is now being used for Landscape Architecture classes.
The College of Design lacks an adequate space for Graphic Design students to properly learn fundamental photography skills. The University of Minnesota provides their graphic design students with a photo imaging lab, a specific studio set up for taking professional photography as well as video. The school of Journalism at Iowa State has a more complete photography studio space than what is provided to Graphic Design students. The College of Design has a technology lab that allows students to rent out equipment that is necessary or useful for class and projects however, there is not sufficient equipment to support the entirety of the College of Design and it is often difficult for students to rent equipment needed to complete class project. Much of the available equipment is either damaged or out of date. This means that faculty have to often risk their own equipment in order to provide their students with resources they are learning and need to utilize. This is unfair to faculty as well as students.
Renovated studio spaces for the Graphic Design program would inspire creativity, spark collaboration, as well as facilitate productivity. Not only would improving studio spaces benefit current students, it would also make Iowa State's Graphic Design program more desirable to prospective students, resulting in a more competitive program. Providing work spaces that have ample table space, working and non-distracting outlets would increase productivity and encourage collaboration within class as well as outside. Providing more resources, such as a photography studio, would better prepare students for the professional world and give them the opportunity to learn fundamental skills that are expected upon entering a career.
We, the undersigned, petition the administration of the College of Design at Iowa State University to support our request for updating the Graphic Design Studios, facilities, and resources. The current studios limit students' learning environment and productive work time, therefore restrict current as well as future opportunities. They have not been updated for at least 5 years.
The few studios dedicated to the undergraduate Graphic Design program:
- Inaccessible outside of class, which discourages students from working collaboratively as well as inhibits the well-being of the Graphic Design community as a whole.
- Lack workable table space, which creates distraction, inhibits productivity, and discourages students from attending class.
- Lack working outlets that do not distract from class, causing difficulty to be productive during valuable class time.
- Lack a space and required equipment to learn fundamental photography skills, inhibiting potential career opportunities.
These are all basic aspects of studio that should be a priority in order to provide students the proper education they are paying for. Graphic Design students should be provided facilities and resources to properly learn fundamental skills such as photography and printing. Proper photography and printing facilities and resources are only provided to graphic design students upon enrollment of classes through the Integrated Studio Arts program. The 'photography lab' provided to Graphic students on the fifth floor of Design is equivalent in quality to any of the other graphic design studios.
We, the undersigned, request the following updates to be completed by the Spring semester of 2019:
- Studios that are made accessible to students outside of class.
- Larger tables or desks that allow adequate work space for students to individually or collaboratively work.
- Properly functioning electrical outlets that do not cause distraction during class time.
- Properly functioning photography equipment that is necessary for fundamental skills learned in photography studios required for a completion of a Graphic Design degree,
Updating the Graphic Design studios, resources, and facilities will not only improve the educational well-being of current students, but will also make the College of Design at Iowa State a better option for prospective students considering Graphic Design. Providing students with adequate work spaces will inspire creativity, spark collaboration, and facilitate productivity, all of which are essential to the success of any designer.

Honda cuts prices on Civic models
* 900 off Type S * 1000 off five-door versions * Haggle more discounts...
Honda is cutting the prices on a range of Honda Civic models.
From January 1, the sporty-looking 1.4 Type S Civic comes with a list price of 14,495.
We reckon with a determined bit of haggling buyers can get that price down to below 14,000.
Offers on five-door Civics
Honda is also taking around 1000 off the five-door 1.4 Si and 1.8 Si versions.
That takes the list price of the 1.4 model down to 15,495 and the 1.8 to 16,495.
Like the Type S model, buyers of the five-door versions can haggle further discounts. Keep an eye on our Target Price for the latest information.
Honda is offering on these models with either a two-year 0% Hire Purchase agreement with 35% deposit, or a three year 5.9% Personal Contract Plan with deposit of 10%.
