President, Dop Dop Salon, NYC
L'Oreal Professionnel Portfolio Artist
Master Color Artist and Motivational Speaker
Licensed: 1985, Cuyahoga Valley Joint Vocational School, Brecksville, OH
First job: Visible Changes salon in Houston, Texas. I started on July 7, 1985 at a place called Almeda Mall.
Clients per week: 40; average ticket is $294 with retail.
Price point: Cut: $150; single process: $150; Highlights: $350; average ticket: $294 with retail
Why did you choose beauty as a career? At the age of 10, I chose to be a stylist. I spent my summers with my great aunt and great grandmother. My great grandmother never cut her hair and she wore a very tight braided chignon that fell to the floor and no one was allowed to touch her hair. I was fascinated by how particular she was about it and I always wanted to braid it. After many summers of begging and pleading, I was taught how to braid and wrap her hair and that I was to be just the second of only two people allowed to do her hair. She passed when I was 15, and I started beauty school a few months later.
Milestones: Having Paul Mitchell judge and choose my model for a spot on the Visible Changes Artistic Team in 1986; opening Dop Dop Salon in SOHO in 1996; being "knighted" in Paris by Intercoiffure, and I will receive "Personality of the Year" for the US at Intercoiffure in Rome next year.
Big break: Leland Hirsch gave me the opportunity to present at Haircolor USA in 1989 in Miami. He said, "Listen Jo, I am going to give you the stage. It will be up to you to keep it." And I've been performing at shows ever since.
Career advice you've received: "Take the client that is front of you!"—Jerry Gordon speaking at Visible Changes conference when I was 19 years old.
Career advice you've given: Education, education, education! It's a lifelong journey.
Your mentors? Annie Humphries, Tim Hartley, Vidal Sassoon, Luis Llongeras, Reg Laws, Aldo Coppolla, Trevor Sorbie and Leland Hirsch.
You mentor: I will and do mentor every single hairdresser I come in contact with, starting with my own team at Dop Dop and The L'Oreal Portfolio Team.
Are there benefits to being a woman in beauty? We are an industry for women, by women. We support and grow women to sustain our industry.
Are there challenges for women in beauty? When I started in the business, there were many challenges in the industry for women. Men have always run and led the industry. The truth is, no matter if a man is straight or gay, women are fascinated by how men see them. Don't get me wrong, if men are talented, it is an honor to watch them work, but if they are popular because of TV or celebrity, and they are not talented, it gets under my skin. I have worked fiercely for years to make a name for myself and I have seen many brilliant women work just as hard and not get anywhere.

During my Nashville trip I was able to go to a trunk show with Kyah where she was showcasing her new accessory line. The evening was spent sipping wine and eating hors devours with the wife and daughters of the lead singer of Journey, Anastasia Brown–who was one of the judges of Nashville Star, the wife of Big Kenny from Big and Rich, and about 8 other women who are movers and shakers in the Nashville music scene. And then there's me…the random friend in town who became keenly aware of her lack of fringe, cool hair, bling, and social prowess.
I felt like I was sitting in an episode of The Real Housewives…but from Nashville.
It was a little surreal to be in the midst of it all…don't get me wrong, all the women were incredibly nice and interesting, but they live lives that are SO vastly different from mine…I found comfort in shoving crackers and spiced goat cheese down my throat so I could avoid awkward conversation and sneak peaks at diamond rings as big as my head.
Nashville is a mini version of LA (except I actually really like Nashville…LA, not so much). Instead of all the waiters and waitresses being actors, they are all singers or song writers. It's not all honky-tonks and cowboys…this place is pretty hipster. It's definitely fun to have a friend to visit who is involved in celebrity circles, but you know what they say, "Mo money, mo problems." (But I will miss the perk of borrowing a stylist's wardrobe, shoes and accessories).

Big Al Weekley Earns Prestigious Nebraska Music Award
Country music connoisseur and preservationist Big Al Weekley of Overton, Nebraska, will be inducted into the Nebraska Country Music Hall of Fame Saturday, October 19, 2013.
Big Al was nominated by Curt Shoemaker of Iona, Kansas.
Shoemaker is a three time hall of famer, professional steel guitarist, songwriter-entertainer and recording artist. Weekley accompanied Shoemaker back in 2009 in recording Gospel CD "Gathered In His Name," with the song "Peace in the Valley."
Big Al was born in Ravenswood, West Virginia. He picked up his first guitar at age 14 and never looked back. He began playing with various Bluegrass and Country Stars. He has performed Country and Bluegrass acts all across his home state. In 1987, he was approached following a show at Ohio University and was asked if he would be interested in hosting a show on public radio. This was the first break in a career for Weekley and he is now one of the most recognizable Country and Bluegrass radio personalities in the country.
After four years on public radio at Ohio University, driving truck and being the music director for 1360 WMOV AM in Ravenswood, West Virginia, Weekley thought it would be good to expand and moved west. He lived in Colorado for a short time playing with Bluegrass bands. After traveling with a band to Crete, Nebraska, he decided he wanted to be part of the Nebraska music scene because it felt like home, so in 1996 he moved to Nebraska. While playing in Nebraska and surrounding states he taped his syndicated radio show for stations back east and then it was time to hit the airwaves in Nebraska. In 1999 he became part of history with 50,000 watt KRVN Radio Station in Lexington. His Bluegrass and Country shows have been aired on KRVN 880 AM for the last 14 years.
Big Al has interviewed some of the greatest music legends including Stone Wall Jackson, Lynn Anderson, Razzy Bailey, Misty Morgan, Jack Blanchard, and James Marvel of the Band Mercy.
He has also recorded with country legends LeRoy Van Dyke, Dave Dudley and numerous Bluegrass stars.
Just a few of Weekley's accomplishments include being chosen to join Music Professionals in Nashville; he has toured with the number one Christmas group in America, 'The Mannheim Steamrollers' from Omaha; 1999 and 2000 Big Al worked with the Nebraska State Fair Board to produce two Bluegrass and Gospel music festivals in Lincoln; in 2000 he founded the Country/Bluegrass Show in North Platte, along with Don and Donna Menzter, which is still going on after 13 years.
In 2003 Big Al was nominated for 'DJ of the Year' by the International Bluegrass Music Association in Nashville. He finished in the top three along with Eddie Stubbs from the Grand Ole Opry and Terry Herd from Satellite Radio in the U.S. and Canada. He is the only Nebraska DJ to ever be nominated.
In 2003 he recorded and produced the album 'In It For The Long Haul.'
From 2004 to 2006 he has driven truck, worked in radio and hosted music shows around Nebraska and surrounding states. He has received the Hometown Hero Award from KNOP TV and presented the 2006 Nebraska Veteran of Foreign Wars Memorial Highway 83 Award.
Also in 2006 he received a Certificate Award from the Governor of Nebraska honoring him the title of 'State of Nebraska Navy Admiral' commissioned for his promotions for the State of Nebraska.
In 2011 he was contacted and told his song he co-worte with friend Cliff Abbott "Lines On The Highway" would be recorded and released by Bluegrass Legend Larry Sparks. It was release in April on Larry's Album called "Almost Home" recorded by Rounder Records.
In recent years he has also been a judge at many music contests including the Colgate Country Music Showdown and the Galaxy of Stars at the Nebraska State Fair.
Twenty-six years after his start in the music world, Big Al makes a living driving truck for Landmark Implement, broadcasting to his loyal fans on KRVN, he is the owner of a newspaper in Bertrand, Nebraska, he is the chief branding officer for Music Charts Magazine in Nashville and travels throughout Nebraska performing shows at county fairs, benefits and festivals.
Recently he received a special award for his efforts during the 2013 Miles of Memories Country Music Festival September 5-7 in Hastings, Nebraska. Weekley was given the honor during the final set of MusicFest.MusicFest producers say Weekley's "Unending devotion and dedication to the preservation of old-time country music" is what made him the choice for the honor. MusicFest hosts Tex and Mary Schutz told a story during the presentation about Big Al's arrival in Nebraska in the early 90's when he didn't even have a guitar. The couple was able to present him with one during their Prairieland CountryFest.

The medicine in the spray is placed directly in the nose to help reduce symptoms and make breathing through the nose easier.How Nasal Corticosteroids Help YouNasal corticosteroid sprays help to reduce swelling and mucus in the nasal passageway and relieve other bothersome nasal symptoms. The sprays work well:For people with allergic rhinitis symptoms, such as congestion, runny nose, sneezing, itching, or swelling of the nasal passageway To treat nasal polyps (benign growths in the lining of the nasal passage)Nasal corticosteroid sprays are different from the sprays you can buy at the store without a prescription. They work best when used every day without stopping. Your doctor will recommend a daily schedule of sprays for each nostril.It may take two weeks or more for your symptoms to improve the most. Be patient. Relieving the symptoms can help you or your child to feel and sleep better and have fewer symptoms during the day.You may also use them on an as-needed basis only, or as-needed along with regular use. Regular use, however, will typically give you better benefit.Starting nasal corticosteroids at the beginning of a pollen season will give you the best results in decreasing symptoms during that season.Several brands of nasal corticosteroids are available, such as Flonase or Nasonex. They all have very similar effects.How to Use Nasal CorticosteroidsMake sure you understand your dosing instructions. Make sure you apply only the prescribed number of sprays in each nostril. You may be asked to use the spray 1 - 2 times per day.Wash your hands. Gently blow your nose to clear the passageway. Shake the container several times. Keep your head upright. Breathe out. Block one nostril closed with your finger. Insert the nasal applicator into the other nostril. Aim the spray toward the outer wall of the nostril. Inhale slowly through the nose and press the spray applicator. Breathe out and repeat to apply the prescribed number of sprays. Repeat the steps for the other nostril. Avoid sneezing or blowing your nose right after spraying.Side EffectsNasal corticosteroid sprays are considered safe for all adults. Specific types are safe for children (over age 2). Pregnant women can safely use nasal corticosteroids.Nasal corticosteroid sprays generally affect only the nasal passageway, where the medicine is deposited, and do not impact other parts of the body. They carry a low risk for widespread side effects unless the drug is used too much.Side effects of nasal steroids may include:Dryness, burning, stinging in the nasal passage. This can be helped by using the nasal corticosteroid after showering or placing your head over a steamy sink or steaming pot for 5 - 10 minutes. Sneezing Throat irritation Headaches and nosebleed (uncommon, but you should report them to your doctor immediately) More likely to have an infection in the nasal passages Rarely, perforation (hole or crack) in the passageway may occur. This occurs more commonly if you do not use the proper technique of spraying away from the middle of your nose.Make sure you, or your child, take the corticosteroid spray exactly as prescribed. This is the best way to avoid side effects. If you, or your child, use the spray regularly, see a doctor periodically for examination of the nasal passages to make sure problems are not developingWhen to Call the DoctorYou have nasal irritation, bleeding or other new nasal symptoms. You have continued allergy symptoms after repeated use of nasal corticosteroids. You have questions or concerns about your symptoms. You are having trouble taking the medication.Related InformationOpen ReferencesReferencesSur DK, Scandale S. Treatment of allergic rhinitis.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
SW:D is a DPS loss. Anecdotal evidence of "I use it and I do more DPS than that other guy" doesn't prove anything. Go read shadowpriest.com or elitist jerks before continuing to spread ignorant misinformation.
The 4-piece bonus is great for Discipline. In that small window of time, a discipline priest can fit in a couple big heals easily with Borrowed Time for some great burst HPS. Also, it's realistic to think that Discipline could keep the buff going throughout a fight.
For holy, it's not useless, but no (good) holy priest is going to be continually throwing around their baby, mana inefficient shields to try to keep the buff rolling.

My husband has been wearing this ring for 5 months now. The black finish is almost all worn off, he does a lot of work with his hands. Instead of being all black, now it is two toned steampunk black and "scratched titanium" with chrome lines on the edges. He likes it still, it matches a rustic watch he has, but its time for another one.
My overall review of the ring is good. As I've said before, love the uniqueness of the cut and style.
i bought this ring cause its durable and just has a sleek quality about it.
I'm pleasantly surprised with the quality of this ring considering the price. I went out on a limb because the price was lower than any other titanium rings I've seen, but it's excellent quality. It has a great look to it, and I would say looked a little better than the image on the website.
Not content at all. Thought it would feel more like titanium but it looked more like a plastic black ring.

Oh, man, this thread has gotten crazy! Oli, your analysis it spot on :D
As for Mr. Bean, I think I owe you an apology. I was joking around; of course it's not true. In fact it is so utterly absurd that I don't think anybody considered it a remote possibility for even a second.
LOL, you got me, NP = nothing personal. Apology accepted. I thought Staff was always serious. It's good to joke sometimes.
Well, good :) Now that Seb, Bean, and I are all OK we can assume that SebLeb is an amazing teacher because he brings people together. Maybe we're not friends, but we can at least be friendly towards one another.
Wow this is marvellous, identity falsification ( allegedly !) multiple identitys, aliases, Rowan Atkinson impersonators ( allegedly !) and the dissapearance of the "great one" himself.
All from a simple ( if flawed ) chess puzzle.
So haven't I got something better to do ? NO !! what can beat fun like this ??? ( ok apologies to the missus lol !)
And yet we are no closer to the identity of the Sebleb !!
Could he be the one ???
Seb if you are there - what is it all about ?, isn't there more to life than this, why do bad things happen to good people ??
Oh and could I please have one of the holy pawns you have played chess with ? I promise to bow to it 777 times a day whilst chanting your most reverend name, erm but if you send me it and tell me to bow 666 times a day I may be worried !
Now come on Seb put us all out of our misery ( erm that would be me then) WHY DO YOU DO IT ??
( that would be continuing to post on here despite shall we say a mixed response )
Oh and if you are "The One" can you give me an ability to play chess greater than Carlsen, but ermm maybe not the chin !
Alright then, Thank you very much Squarology :) I realy appretiate it
Well, if something is funny, it is funny and nothing can be done about it.
This is Chess.com, laughing and having fun are totally fine :)
Oh , in that case : When I said you are a troll with a suspicious identity , I of course was only joking hahahaa . The same joke you pulled on Bean hahahaa . And you fell for it hahahaa . Jez , I'm having fun hahahaa.
You are totally impartial , objective and concise . Just what you expect of a Staff member . You don't try to be among the lads , your are firm above them.
ANOTHER joke , hahahaa . Can't stop hahahahahaha ...
Ofcourse there are other things then this ! :) But I am proud of being the host of these forums and blogs, I love it ! The trick is, if you can get sombody mad, (like bobby) well it is certain that you will get alot of posts. Not meaning that I wanted to get him mad. And make sure that you always awnser peoples questions to get the posts rolling.

Tarkanian, that would be pretty funny :)
In this Chess.com lesson we are going to analyze the amazing case of Sebleb. At first I thought he was a normal person in Canada but then using IP tracers I learned that Sebleb, bobby244, GuineaPig, and bean_Fischer were the SAME person living in a quiet town of Indonesia. +

Mr. Beans holiday ( movie ) lol. ( btw I dont want make confusion again cos its probably not true that they all were the SAME person )
Yeah, I am only one person :)
Thankyou oh great one - you have said " I love it" that is the answer to it all !!
Not had soooo much fun for ages.
Now hows about a "holy pawn" ? even a "holy smelly sock" will do, and my wish was granted I am now a better player than Carlsen, the only problem is you downgraded Carlsen to a rating of Elo 666 - you little devil !
I almost thought you had 4 alter egos ;)
SadLeb answered Olichris in #73 with :
Guys read this well . It's the first time he shows his real intention. The way to not indulge him is simple. STOP POSTING ON THIS THREAD.
And another thing : There are hardly any spell-errors . All of a sudden he can write perfect English.
I'm deleting all my comments adressed to or referring to Seb. If others do this too, he will be left with an empty thread filled with [NO COMMENT]
I can't reason with this arse. The more I reason with him, the more he thought he got the upperhand. sigh....
Don't you think what you said won't get ppl mad? You told ppl what and what not to do. Now you are pretending you were the hosts.
If you want to be a coach and host, go somewhere else. You got ppl mad for nothing. And you love it! What a ........
Ah now the great one has revealed himself !! - and he hasnt even offered to send me a smelly sock !
So is he a manipulative genius ?, a rotten mind bender, a young lad playing games with his elders or " The Great One"
Now we all know his game , that is the one apart from chess, we can play or not play, but maybe not get caught ( up !)
May the Hoary Hosts of Hoggoth be with you all - and if anyone can tell me where that comes from I will send you my newly acquired chin 1
Wasnt that Who I told you I was ?
To take the bait or not to take the bait ?
That is the question ladies and gentlemen lol !
It's not a puzzle if give the answer right away.
Yes, but please note that I clearly said : PLEASE SOLVE BEFORE PLAY

The California man suspected of fatally shooting two Santa Cruz police detectives was convicted of spying on a Portland woman in the shower.
Investigators say Jeremy Goulet, 35, gunned down the detectives who came to his home investigating a reported sexual assault. The barista was arrested last week, accused of making unwanted sexual advances on a co-worker.
Police shot and killed Goulet Tuesday afternoon after shutting down his neighborhood to search for the suspect.
Goulet was released from the Multnomah County Jail in April 2010, following an invasion of privacy conviction.
He was previously convicted of a similar offense in California.
The man who caught Goulet spying on his then-girlfriend said he has two very opposite feelings about Goulet's violent actions and death.
"One of shock and one of not being surprised at all," said Danny Thomas. "The shocking part was that he's coming back into my life and I was hearing his name again. Not being surprised, being him hurting other people, I guess."
Goulet was arrested in October 2007 after Thomas and his then-girlfriend caught Goulet spying on the woman while she showered in their northwest Portland apartment.
"We looked out the window, there was a screen that was taken off and a stick that was poked through the blinds," he recalled.
Thomas confronted Goulet that night, chasing him into a nearby dog park. Two weeks later, he saw the man outside their apartment building again.
"I told him, 'Hey, I told you not to come back.' Right when I said that, he grabbed for his pocket," Thomas said. "I didn't really wait, I just grabbed him and we started fighting."
Thomas said he thought Goulet was reaching for a knife, but instead pulled out a gun. The gun went off twice during their fight, in which Thomas bit off part of Goulet's ear.
The following year, a Multnomah County jury convicted Goulet of invasion of privacy and illegal possession of a firearm, both misdemeanors. He was acquitted of more serious charge of attempted murder.
"I just think, man, if we were able to stop him at that time, maybe things could be different," said Thomas.
Goulet was originally sentenced to probation and a sex offender treatment program, but was sentenced to two years in jail after he violated his parole. At the time, a judge gave Goulet the option of continuing the treatment program and spending up to 90 days in jail, but he chose the longer sentence.
Thomas said he tried to keep tabs on Goulet after his release from jail, searching his name on the internet every two months. He moved out of the neighborhood where he lived in 2007, worried Goulet would return.
He did not know the man had returned to California.
While he is relieved he no longer has to worry about Goulet, his thoughts are with the California families now dealing with tragedy.
"I just really feel for the people that lost family members on both sides of it," he said. "It's just a really tragic story."

Welcome to my Muscle Walk Personal Fundraising page!
Our family is excited to participate in our local MDA Muscle Walk for the second time. Duchenne's Muscular Dystrophy first touched my life over 20 years ago, when some close family friends had their son diagnosed at just 8 years old. Patrick will celebrate his 29th birthday just a few weeks before the event. I have been inspired seeing his extended family step up and offer their support, from his cousins volunteering as camp counselors in their youth to fundraising and even serving as team captain at their local Muscle Walk.
Many years later, this devastating disease entered another friend's life when their son was diagnosed. We attend church together and have watched their strength and struggle over the past several years as Brendan's disease has progressed.
For these boys, their families, and so many like them, our family is asking for you to join us in raising funds to further treatment research and open the opportunity to attend MDA camp to more families.
Make a Muscle. Make a Difference.®
Achieved: $165.00

There's a first time for Everything
You look down at both your intertwined hands and can't help but smile to yourself. You still can't believe that your boyfriend is Josh Hutcherson - also, he's your first boyfriend.
You two haven't been dating for long, only a good week or so. You've never kissed him before, or any boy to be truthful. You're actually sort of afraid that you won't know what to do when he leans in and kisses you. And thanks to Jen who so kindly hinted around; he plans on kissing you today. You're really nervous and you have no idea what to do when the time comes.
You two go back to your house after your walk around the neighborhood on this beautiful summer day. Once you get on the porch, you turn to Josh and smile, your cheeks blushing a bit.
Josh rests one hand on your waist and he tucks a piece of hair behind your ear before resting the other hand on one side of your face. You slowly wrap your arms around his warm neck and smile a bit. Well, I have to go see the director for a movie I have coming up but … I'll see you later?" he asks hopefully, smiling a bit. You nod and add, "Yeah see you later!" Josh remains there and your heart stops.
This is it your first kiss is finally going to happen. You feel as if you can't breathe and Josh slowly moves in, tilting his head a bit and closing his eyes. You just remain there as Josh continues leaning in and you have absolutely no idea what to do.
Do you close your eyes or wait until he's actually kissing you? Are you supposed to lean in as well or? A soft warm pair of lips pressing gently against your own interrupts your thoughts. You feel as if the whole world stops and your heart finally feels like it's beating again.
His lips feel soft against yours and it feels right - the perfect fit. As if on instinct, you close your eyes and kiss him back - not even knowing what your doing. Your lips are moving as one and the kiss is amazing! His warm lips tingle against yours and you wish they'd never leave.
You feel him apply more pressure with his lips; kissing you deeper than before. You find yourself doing the same and running your fingers through his hair, sucking gently on his bottom lip. Josh pulls his lips away slowly, gently pulling on your bottom lip before pulling away but pecks them softly once more before resting his forehead against yours, grinning the biggest smile you've ever seen him have.
Your cheeks redden and Josh grins even more which you didn't even think was possible. Your first kiss is already over, but it was perfect. "I'll see you later [Y/N]," he smiles and pecks your cheek softly before pulling away. He waves at you before hoping into the car.
You didn't even notice Jen and Liam staring from the car - you didn't even know his ride was already there! You were too caught in the amazing kiss.
After the car is gone, you smile and slowly slide down against the door, grinning like a big idiot and biting on your lip; trying to make the smile not seem too big. That kiss is the only thing on your mind for the rest of the day.
"Come on we should get off the bed," your boyfriend of five months, Josh, says. "Nooooo," you reply, intertwining your legs with his. "Let's stay!" You do your cute pout thing that Josh almost always falls for. He looks at you and groans trying to shield his eyes, which makes you giggle.
"That's what you said five minutes ago [Y/N]," he chuckles but pulls you closer anyways. You smile and rest your head in his warm chest, playing with his fingers. You've fallen hard for Josh in the past five months and you love him - much more than you even thought was possible. You don't know what you'd do without this boy; he's basically your life. You love him so much.
Josh starts lifting up but you stop him and look up into his eyes. "We could … you knooow," you say in a singsong voice, pecking his lips softly. Josh's been sort of hinting that he wants to have sex.
He tries not to make it obvious but the boners didn't help much and let's just say you two never went swimming anymore or else Josh wouldn't be able to deal which you find hilarious. It's so cute to see him all flustered and upset that he can't do anything about it so he grumbles to himself under his breath while pacing around. It's really quite a sight to watch.
You want to take the next step with him and make love, you're just so afraid - you're a virgin. You're afraid you won't be good in bed and also … you're really self conscious about your body; being curvy and all.
Josh says he adores your curves and he says, quote: "There's more to cuddle with." but you hate it anyways. You don't like your curves with clothes on, with clothes off? You're afraid Josh won't like what's in front of him. You don't want him to cringe whenever he thinks of having sex after you do the first time. You want it to be perfect - with him having more experience than you.
"Don't joke about that [Y/N]," Josh groans, already getting a little bump in his lower region. You may have joked about it in the past before to tease him and make fun of his boner. Truth is, you said that so he could stay lying down but you actually do want to have sex with him. You feel as if you're finally ready - whether your body agrees with you or not. "I'm not joking Josh," you say softly, your voice trembling a bit. He looks down into your eyes and his eyes go huge. He grins and says, "Are you sure about this? I don't want to rush anything."
You nod and smile. "No I'm sure, I'm ready." Josh smiles and leans down, pecking your lips softly. You kiss him back and let yourself drown into the kiss, deepening it ever-so-slowly. He pulls you closer and you sit down on his lap; your legs on either side of him. His tongue licks your lower lip gently and you smile, loving the feeling of his tongue against your lower lip. You part your mouth and let him in.
He tugs gently on your bottom shirt and you freeze into the kiss and wince; your reflex kicking in. Josh notices and sighs, pulling away. He runs a hand through his black hair and looks deep into your eyes, making your heart skip a beat.
"[Y/N] it's fine, we can still cuddle on the bed for a good half an hour if that's what you want. I just don't want you doing this other than for yourself," he tells you, intertwining his hand with yours. You wince and close your eyes, feeling so scared and vulnerable. Your cheeks turn red and you feel as if you can't breathe; you have to tell him what's been taunting your mind for a while now.
You quickly just let it out and say, "I'mafraidIwon'tbegoodinbedandyouwon'tlikemycurves." Josh doesn't say anything and you peek your eyes open. Josh looks like a lost puppy as he tries to revise on what you said in one breath. You bite your lip to keep from smiling and shut your eyes again; embarrassed that you just confused him. He looks so cute though when he's lost - it's one of the most adorable things he does. "Ohh," Josh mutters, finally understanding.
"[Y/N], please look at me beautiful." You slowly open your eyes and he cups your jaw with both his hands, warming up your jaw with his warm hands and looking deeply into your eyes. You feel your heart melt slowly from his intense staring and you love being this close to him.
"It's not possible for someone to not be good while making love hun. Pleasure is pleasure and it will always feel good. We'll take things super slow and go easy, I won't do anything to hurt you on purpose. And [Y/N] sweetheart, you know I love your curves! They make you unique and there's more to cuddle to. I love it beautiful and most of all; I love you! It's not too late to back out of this sweetie."
You're so touched and shocked by everything Josh just told you. You wrap your arms around his neck and kiss him deeply and passionately on the lips. Josh seems shocked but he kisses you back deeply, resting his hands on your waist.
You feel him smile into the kiss, which makes you smile. You pull away and slowly press your lips against his ear. You breathe lightly and say, "I'm 100% sure I want to do this." Josh grins and presses his lips back down on yours, kissing you deeply. You smile and kiss him back, enjoying the feel of his lips on yours. He gently licks your bottom lip and starts taking off your pants.
You ignore your heartbeat speeding up and just focus on Josh's tongue running over yours. You run you're hands down to the bottom of Josh's black V-neck shirt and pull it off - detaching your lips from his for a few seconds while you pull it over his head.
You're about to press your lips back on his but he tugs gently on your shirt before slowly lifting it up. You bite down on your lip nervously as the top fully comes off and hits the ground.
Josh eyes what he can already see and you feel his boner increase against your bum. You giggle and surprisingly Josh blushes just a bit. His warm hands run up your stomach to the ending of your bra. You start chewing on your bottom lip and look at Josh.
He gives you a look asking to continue, you slowly nod and watch him. He brings his hands to the back of your bra and gently unhooks it, slowly taking it off. The minute the bra leaves you, you feel overexposed. Your immediate reflex is to cover your arms over your breasts - which you do. Josh takes your arms in his hands and slowly moves them away, never taking his eyes off you. "You're beautiful [Y/N] and you have no reason to be insecure. I don't love you for your shape, I love you for your heart and personality," he says firmly.
You smile and feel your cheeks redden just the slightest. Josh slowly lowers his eyes until they land on your breasts. Your cheeks turn a deep shade of red and you feel Josh's boner increase even more - making you happy that it excites him. His hands start on your stomach and slowly make their way up to your breasts. Once he gets there, he slowly outlines the breasts with his fingertips; giving you shivers. His hands run gently over your breasts and you gasp from the contact.
He traces his hands gently all around; giving you tingles all over your body. Josh starts massaging your breasts; gently pulling and squeezing all over. His thumbs touch your nipples and you half-gasp-half-moan. Josh smirks and starts pulling on the small little buds gently. You sigh and tilt your head back, slowly closing your eyes.
Josh's hands continue roaming gently all over, rubbing all around. You feel so wet and you bite your lip to keep from smiling from the pleasure. He runs his hands down past your stomach and traces the waistband of your underwear. You start to feel uncertain but you shrug it off and take off his pants. Seeing his hard-on practically poke out of his boxers gives you butterflies in the stomach.
Josh starts tugging gently on your underwear and your head pops up quickly, your eyes as big as golf balls. You can't help but be nervous about this. Josh looks up and notices, he leans in and kisses you softly on the lips. You sigh and kiss him back gently, relaxing a bit.
"We can stop here baby," he whispers against your lips. You shake your head and pull away; wanting to continue. Josh smiles and goes back to his position. He gently runs his hands up to the waistband and slowly pulls it off. He then throws them gently on the ground and you shut your eyes; not wanting to see Josh's reaction to when he first looks at it.
His hands caress your inner thighs and he gently brings them closer. He finally gets to your sensitive region and he delicately runs his hands over. You shiver and keep your eyes shut; wondering what he'll do next. Josh brings an index finger over to your clit and gently starts rubbing. Your body jumps from the pleasure and you find yourself wanting to moan. He pecks your clit softly with his warm, soft mouth before running the finger down to your entrance slowly. He gently pushes the finger in and you groan, tilting your head back. He starts pushing the finger in and out of you.
You moan and the pleasure feels so good - it's not like you've never done this to yourself before anyways, so it doesn't hurt. Josh begins gently pumping the finger faster and faster inside of you. You forget your shyness and start to buck your hips into him. "Josh," you whimper, feeling yourself getting close. He curves the finger against your g-spot and your whole body jerks forward. He continues pumping the finger inside of you and now curves into your g-spot every time. You begin to buck your hips even harder and you start panting, super close to your orgasm. You bucking your hips more makes him slam even deeper against your g-spot. You let out another moan and whimper his name. He goes at maximum speed to drive you over the edge and you tilt your head back, mouth wide open. He curves deeply against your g-spot at his maximum speed and you let out your orgasm, feeling relieved and unclenching.
Josh pulls his finger out and licks it. You cringe, not knowing whether he'd like it or not. Josh pulls out a clean finger and smiles, leaning back over to you. "It's sweet, just like you," he grins sheepishly. You smile and giggle a bit. He slowly comes closer; eyeing your lips. You kiss him back softly and slowly run your fingers down his chest. You get to the beginning of his boxers and your heart rate speeds up. You slowly pull them down and pull away from his lips. Josh sits down and his dick slaps up against his stomach. Your eyes go wide - this being the first dick you've ever seen live, right in front of you.
You have absolutely no idea what to do and Josh can tell. "I told you love, you can't suck at this. It will feel good no matter what. Have more confidence in yourself beautiful," he says sweetly and smiles. You nod and go on your knees, slowly approaching him. You grab the shaft in both hands and start gliding your fingers around; exploring. Josh grips the sheets and you smile and realize he's right. Your confidence boosts up a bit and you start gliding your hands up and down the shaft. Josh whimpers and you notice the head is getting red from the lack of attention. One hand leaves his shaft and grabs the head, rubbing all over and using the thumb to circle the outline. "Oh my g- [Y/N]," he moans. You smile - glad that you're pleasuring him so much - and start rubbing quicker to the point where you're actually jerking him off.
Josh's moans become continuous and he whimpers your name. You can tell he's close and his moans get more and more high pitch. You feel the head of his dick twitch and you stop immediately; not ready to go for that yet.
Josh opens his eyes and you're super fragile and upset, hoping he's not mad at you for that. Josh sees that and his face goes all worried. He pulls you into his arms and rocks you slowly, kissing your forehead. "It's okay baby, I understand. I don't expect you to do anything more. It's okay and I'll go super slow and hurt you as less as possible," he whispers softly, twirling your hair with his index finger. You smile and rest your head in his chest for a second, just taking in your surroundings.
You pull away a few seconds later and Josh reaches into his wallet to grab a condom. You lay down on the bed and take a deep breath; trying not to hyperventilate. Josh puts it on and hovers over you, putting his hands on either side of you to hold him up. You sigh and look deeply into his crystal clear bluey-gray eyes.
"This will hurt a bit love but it will get better, do you trust me?" he asks seriously. You nod softly and he smiles. He brings his face closer to yours and eyes your lips. "Just think of me okay? Forget about the pain and just focus on me, our first kiss," he tells you. You gulp and nod, worry filling in your eyes. Josh slowly pushes himself in and you gasp. This isn't too bad actu- oh god! Josh pushes in deeper and continues; seeming like it'll never end. Tears gather in your eyes and the pain is practically unbearable. You yelp a cry of pain and wince, shutting your eyes. Josh presses his lips down on yours deeply and your mind takes you back to the first week you two were dating.
A soft warm pair of lips pressing gently against your own interrupts your thoughts. You feel as if the whole world stops and your heart finally feels like it's beating again. His lips feel soft against yours and it feels right - the perfect fit. As if on instinct, you close your eyes and kiss him back - not even knowing what your doing. Your lips are moving as one and the kiss is amazing! His warm lips tingle against yours and you wish they'd never leave. You feel him apply more pressure with his lips; kissing you deeper than before. You find yourself doing the same and running your fingers through his hair, sucking gently on his bottom lip. Josh pulls his lips away slowly, gently pulling on your bottom lip before pulling away but pecks them softly once more before resting his forehead against yours, grinning the biggest smile you've ever seen him have. Your cheeks redden and Josh grins even more which you didn't even think was possible. Your first kiss is already over, but it was perfect.
The pain goes away surprisingly and you're shocked. Suddenly, the pleasure hits you - hard. "You're so tight love," he whimpers, pecking your lips softly. You groan and beg for him to go faster. You pull his body onto yours and buck yourself into him; kissing him deeply whilst running your fingers through his soft black hair. Josh goes faster and he begins to slam passionately against your g-spot. You can feel every inch of him on you and the pleasure is so amazing. His tongue slips gently inside your mouth and you greet his with yours. You feel him deeply inside of you and it feels like you don't even him leave. He slams deeply into you, groping your hips gently.
The pleasure is too much to handle and you know you're close. You whimper for him to go faster against his lips. Josh follows the orders and the constant slamming against your g-spot brings you over the edge. You pull away from his lips and yell out, "Ahh Josh!" You let your orgasm and feel so relieved.
Josh stops inside of you and his dick twitches. He cums inside of the condom and slowly pulls out, taking the condom off and throwing it away.
Once he comes back to the bed, he has a huge blue soft blanket in his hands. He lays it down on the bed and goes to the middle of it, pulling you close in his chest. He wraps the blanket around the both of you and you then wrap your arms around his. "As promised; we'll cuddle in bed and here's a bonus - we can cuddle for as long as you want. You're the judge of when you've had enough cuddling you deserved it beautiful. You were so brave and sweet, plus you're a natural," he chuckles.
You giggle and just sigh softly; loving your boyfriend so much. One of his hands play with your hair and you feel yourself smiling; closing your eyes in pure relaxation. He pecks your cheek softly and whispers, "I love you."
You smile and say it back. Your thoughts are brought back to your first kiss. Your first kiss and your first time now both have something in common: it was absolutely perfect

Why fixed indexed annuities don't tie up your money
By Karlan Tucker
Tucker Advisors
The objection I've heard most often in my 5,000 plus interviews is, "I don't like annuities because they tie my money up." I am now going to tell you one of the most effective ways I have ever found to convince my prospects beyond a shadow of doubt that liquidity is not a problem.
This method comes from my many experiences sitting across the table from annuity prospects. These ideas have been proven over and over. They work! I did not read them in a book. I did not overhear them in a conversation. They are the result of thinking on my feet during thousands of interviews.
Annuity terms typically range from five to 16 years. The perception by the public is that you would be tying up their money for up to 16 years. To begin with, let's clarify a few things. The kind of money that is appropriate for annuities is nest egg money, the retirement savings that need to be there for as long as they live. A top priority for nest egg money should not include the need for it to be 100 percent liquid 100 percent of the time. If that were the case, everyone would need to have their nest eggs in money market accounts or something similar. You can't keep pace with inflation with your money there; so, you lose purchasing power, which erodes your standard of living.
Can you think of any account that would ever be 100 percent liquid, offer significant growth opportunities, grow tax-free, provide an income stream that can never run out during your lifetime and impose no market risk on the account holder? I can. It's a fixed indexed annuity after surrenders are up. Who wouldn't want this type of account? During surrenders, the only thing that changes is that temporarily, it's not 100 percent liquid. We have already determined that if nest egg funds are being used, that is not an issue. However, let's look at just how liquid FIAs are during the surrender period.
Ten percent free withdrawals annually are pretty much standard across the industry. Using the example of $100,000 in principal, a 10 percent withdrawal would be $10,000. If you withdrew $10,000 annually, in approximately 10 years, you would deplete all your nest egg. Ask: "Do you have a plan in place to spend all your life savings/nest egg in the next 10 years?" Ask: "Have you ever withdrawn 20 percent, 30 percent, 40 percent or more from your savings?" Nobody does this. The one-in-a-million scenario where you would need to deplete most or all of your savings never materializes because there is only a one-in-a-million percent chance of it happening. And if an event like this happens, the least of your problems is that some of your money is under surrender charges. Early withdrawals of CDs at the bank will also be penalized. For stock funds, you should ask: "Will the market be up or down on the day this unlikely emergency happens?" If it's down, to liquidate would also have major costs. The problem is not that money may have penalties on it. The problem is you just had a one-in-a-million disaster.
So, liquidity is not a problem for your prospects when...
- nest egg funds are used
- they are unwilling to spend all their nest egg in 10 years
- they seldom, if ever, have taken 10 percent annually before you met
- they need their savings to last a lifetime
- Their current advisor is telling them that prudent investors don't take more than three percent to five percent annually, so as not to run out of money before they run out of life
- in five to 16 years, the account will be 100 percent liquid for the rest of their life and the lives of their beneficiaries
It's a free country; you don't have to have surrender charges. I ask if you could have an account that:
- Is totally safe from market risk
- Offers great growth opportunities
- Grows tax free and as a Roth comes out tax free
- Generates an income/pension you can't outlive
- Limits liquidity to spending 100 percent of the account in about 10 years
Every investment has to juggle:
- Risk
- Liquidity
- Tax treatment
- Growth potential
- Income potential
Let me give you one last example...
Ask them:
- Have you ever had a 12 percent loss in the market? According to the formula above, 12 percent is the worst-case scenario, and you can know about that up front. If the mutual fund prospectus said you may incur charges of 30 percent, 40 percent, 50 percent or even greater, would you have bought the fund?
- Are you penalizing me for full disclosure up front with a maximum charge of 12 percent to access 100 percent of your funds, which you would only need to do if the one-in-a-million emergency arises? Otherwise you can blow through the funds in about 10 years without any penalties. Additionally, the 12 percent charge is totally voluntary. It won't happen unless you make it happen to yourself. Ask them, "Have you ever suffered a loss in the market of 12 percent or greater?" They always say yes. Then say, "Was that voluntary or involuntary? The FIA gives you complete control over your money -- this may be the first time you have ever experienced this."
- Do you like this account?
- 100 percent liquid
- May lose most or all of the account to risk
- May credit significant gains that will be taken back if you can't time the market
- Cannot generate lifetime income that will never run out regardless of market performance
- Requires you to sell a portion or all of the account before it is of any value to you
- Requires you to buy when the news is bad and sell when the news is good in order to make money
- May spend 10 years or more of your life with no gains left in the account by the 10th year, despite the fact you made no withdrawals
- The broker who sold you the account is assured of making money every year you leave the account with him or her, even though you are offered no guarantees of any profitability and may not make any money over the ten years
- Offers no guarantees
- 100 percent liquid

New Zealand Mossie back to life, with a little flight with some friends, a Spit and a Vampire. In order to get the shots, they were flying pretty slow, the low throttle indicators were going off a lot. Looks good full screen. Nice way to spend an afternoon.... from Gavin Conroy's channel.

The US Military and Darpa are working on a replacement for the Harpoon anti-ship missile. The intention is a active and passive equipped airborne cruise missile that will go after any target anywhere, without being dependent on communications with home base or GPS. It is also necessary to survive entry into the target area, and also be able to decide for itself where the most lethal point of the target is, and then hit it.
The Harpoon is around 40 years old now, but is no slouch. Originally developed as an open sea anti-ship weapon, it can now be fired from ship, sub or aircraft, at land or sea targets as a surgical strike weapon. It's newest variant, the SLAM ER, for 'Standoff Land Attack Missile, Expanded Response', adds a man in the loop and makes the missile reprogrammable in flight.
The Harpoon's survivability in the current climate of sophisticated ship defenses depends on being networked, being able to see GPS and other overhead targeting satellites and drones. Multiple missile launches are also necessary to ensure one gets through to the target. This is what DARPA wants to solve.
The newest project, the LRASM, 'Long Range Anti-Ship Missile, aims to do away with any dependence on communications, or any outside guidance at all. The missile will be using AI and computer algorithms to guide itself to the target, and choose where to hit it, with no outside interference, especially from the target's assets. A supersonic version was dropped to concentrate on the subsonic version. The sensor packages provided by Lockheed Martin and BAE have been tested, and the airframe should fly early in 2013.
The Horsfall Monster Gun
- Details
- Created on Saturday, 19 January 2013 22:04
Iron guns were reaching their limits in the 1850's, even though the Americans and Brits pushed on with them into the 1870's. The answer to their problem, defeating armor plate, was still in the future with higher velocity steel guns, but during the Crimean and the American Civil Wars, wrought and cast iron were the order of the day, and the major arms makers were pushing those frontiers as far as they would go.
One big gun built by the Mersey Steel and Iron Company was known as the "Monster Gun" in 1856. It was larger by a foot in diameter of the largest forging they ever made, and it took seven weeks to place bars of iron around the center core and beat them into shape with a 15 ton hammer. After the gun took shape, the trunnions affixed to a large hoop was shrunk around the gun, adding strength. Such huge forgings were said, by the common wisdom of the time, to be weaker than cast iron due to the length of time the metal was in contact with heat, but Mr. Horsfall persisted and the gun was bored to 13 inches, and weighed 25 tons.
Boring the gun took a couple of weeks, where several flaws in the iron were found and patched up, and after four months the gun was ready. 2 proof rounds were fired, a service shell filled with lead and 45 pounds of gunpowder, which the gun survived. The next test was against a floating battery, an armored ship full of guns, but not much else. With 25 pounds of powder and a 280 pound shot, it blasted its way though the battery's wrought iron armor easily.
The gun was donated to the Government, but with the war over the British Admiralty hemmed and hawed around and not much was done with the gun. It was tested again in 1862 against another giant pile of armor plate, which it duly splintered. It was obvious the Mersey Works could build a gun. They had previously built a smaller 12 inch wrought iron gun for the US Navy, for use on the USS Princeton, who had also installed another similar gun built by an American company. In a demonstration, the American gun burst, killing the US Secretaries of State and the Navy. A Mersey gun is in the Washington Navy Yard today.
The passing of the Browning 9mm
- Details
- Created on Saturday, 12 January 2013 14:30
As reported in the Telegraph, British troops are beginning to phase out the venerable Browning 9mm handgun in favor of the Glock 17. The new handguns are better in every way but I for one will miss the old Browning
The Browning High Power, picture by Wikimedia contributor Rama
The Glock is lighter. Half of it is plastic, and some of the fire control parts are small, light twisted pieces of metal buried in the plastic lower half. On first inspection this doesn't seem very robust, however, the Glock is very reliable, and the 17 is famous for having 200,000 rounds run through it without much of a failure. Hard to argue with that.
The trigger is safer. Much to be said about the Glock trigger. The gun won't fire unless a physical finger is on the trigger, much simpler in use than the Browning, which is a single action pistol. In order to bring the Browning into action, either the slide must be drawn back chambering a round, or the pistol is carried with the hammer back and the safety on, which must be thumbed off to fire. With the Glock loaded and a round in the chamber, you merely draw the gun and fire.
Glock 17, picture by Wikimedia contributor Hrd10
The Glock is a striker fired weapon, and the Browning uses a hammer. If I had to choose, I'd take a hammer. Strikers are allright for a rifle. (That should start something.) The operation of the two pistols are similar, as the Glock is based on the Browning's barrel camming operation. The Glock's external coatings are pretty good, protecting it from the elements and the shooter, and the Browning's are the traditional blueing and parkerizing.
Finally, although there is much more that can be said, you can hang everything and it's brother on the Glock, from tactical lasers to wild sights. The same thing can be done with the Browning, but is clumsy. The Glock holds more ammunition. The Glock is more modern in every way. The Glock is cool. (They say.)
The British Army has used the High Power since the 50's. You can say that they have been well served. But now the Browning is entering the history books as another weapon that had served the British well, and it is in good company.
Tsunami Bomb
- Details
- Created on Saturday, 05 January 2013 14:17
Total war, such as WW2, pushes weapon development along all sorts of paths. The atomic bomb was the ultimate development which overshadowed all others. One discontinued path was the Tsunami Bomb.
During the war, a US Navy officer noticed wave actions created by blasting through coral reefs, a wartime expedient that would horrify environmentalists today. In 1944, the US teamed up with New Zealand at the University of Auckland to study the effects and possibly recommend a course of action. It was found to be feasible, but the amount of explosives necessary to create a modest tsunami could just as well have been dropped on the coastal city in question doing more damage than any tsunami.
The idea of a Tsunami bomb still thrills conspiracy theorists, who contend that an evil consortium of India, US and Israel detonated a nuclear bomb underwater causing the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami. With all the nuclear watchdog stuff going on around the globe, this does seem highly unlikely, and no sane nation would embark on such a path. However, just cruising the headlines, sanity seems to be in short supply.

You guys, it's the brand-new vegan brunch at Donut Farm and it's off the chain! You need to eat it NOW. You get one plate option, or you can choose a sandwich or pancakes (blueberry or plain). The plate option this week was tofu scramble with tomatoes, mushrooms, and spinach, hash browns, toast with housemade vegan butter. Coffee was good and strong! Everything is organic and at $8 for a giant plate, you're getting a deal. It's Saturday and Sunday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. and you'll be very happy that you went. Trust! I love brunch. I love it so much. That is all.

Bad news for fans of The White Stripes . Ex-frontman Jack White tells NME.com that there's "absolutely no chance" that he would reunite with former band mate Meg White anytime in the future.
"I couldn't see any reason to ever [reform the band]," explained White. "I'm not the kind of person that would retire from baseball and come out of retirement the next year. I mean, if we went to all the trouble of telling people we're done, we meant it you know?" says White.
White adds that the only way a reunion tour would occur is if he wound up in a dire financial situation. "If we were forced to change our mind about that, I can only imagine the reason being if we went bankrupt or really needed the cash, which would be a really sad thing," said White. "I would probably be issuing an apology along with the announcement of the show dates."
The singer also noted that it was necessary for him to end The White Stripes before he could make a solo album. "I wanted Meg to come to a decision with me and officially put an end to [The White Stripes]," revealed White. "I said eventually -- I had no plans at the time -- but eventually I'm going to record by myself under my name, and I don't really feel like going through the dumb perception battle of people who couldn't be broad-minded enough to understand the difference between Jack White and The White Stripes."
You'll be able to experience the difference for yourself when White's debut solo album Blunderbuss hits stores on April 24.

What a boost to come to work and be greeted by such beautiful roses and lilies. Our library has experienced a landscape renewal in the past couple of years that has added more color to our environment. Though the roses are simply beautiful, we have yet to identify the variety pictured here. Perhaps you can tell us what they are?
Read more
Yes, many orchids are easy to grow! Like any living thing, they have a few requirements: light, food, and water. They need as much bright, indirect light as you can give them. I learned not to put them in direct sunlight, as they will develop black spots on the blooms and leaves. As for food and water, orchids need consistency. During the winter, water them thoroughly each week, and in the summer, they may require water every other day. I feed year-round with a diluted mix. I also recommend potting them in an orchid bark mix as it allows the roots to breathe.
Looking out my front door, across the grassy field in the shade of the trees, I saw a tall, shimmering, orange flower that stood above all the tall grasses. Curious, I went over to see it. I knew it was a lily, but had no idea what kind. At this time, I knew nothing about wildflowers beyond dandelions and Queen Ann's Lace. I had never seen this beautiful flower. On another occasion, I found a pretty purple flower and wondered what it might be.
Have you ever noticed that the petals and leaves on your rose bushes are curling up and turning brown? What could cause this problem? Check out our gardening section at the Liberty Branch. There are many great resources on how to care for your roses.
The roses in front of the Dearborn Branch have done just great this year. I am amazed, after the harsh weather this last year. Last winter, we would come to work in the morning and the plants would be drifted almost out of sight with snow. They also thrived with just occasional watering during the worst heat of the summer.
Are you hungry for spring to get here? If you join us at the Camden Point Branch on Saturday, February 26, you will go home with a little bit of spring's possibilities in your hands.
The program, Wildflower Seedballs, will be presented at 2:00 p.m. by Larry O'Donnell from the Little Blue River Watershed Coalition. We will learn about native plants and how they help the land. Each participant will make a wildflower seedball to take home and plant in the garden.
"If of thy mortal goods thou art bereft, and from thy slender store two loaves alone to thee are left, Sell one, and with the dole Buy hyacinths to feed thy soul" ~ Moslih Eddin Saadi (1184 – 1283/1291?)
This past weekend was a teaser for Spring with temperatures in the 70's. As I did my grocery shopping, hyacinths were on sale in the flower department. I'd forgotten what a treat they are in color, form, and smell.
The weatherman says it is meteorological spring, but still I put on my jacket each morning. One night this week, I was compelled to bring my new basket of pansies inside, just in case. To temper my spring fever, I have been reading books about container gardening.
Flowers are not only beautiful to look at and fun to grow, we can also eat them!
My husband, an avid gardener, enjoys growing irises because of their striking foliage, reblooming capability, and scents.

He assures goondas and lumpen elements(and his own police force) that they are free to go on a killing and burning spree for full three days ... and thereafter stop it, he tells them. With a lopsided mindset, he should be the beloved PM of those on his side. Not to worry about the other side as they can be taken care of by Modi. This time he order the para military forces and even Armed Forces to annihilate certain people. After all his hero Hitler had massacred 60 laks using govt machinery. So why not him?
He has been branded as a persona -non -grata by some countires including USA where his entry is banned.
