A Downtown Roanoke Bed & Breakfast will soon make its national television debut. Later this spring, The Inn on Campbell will be featured in a new reality series on Retired Living TV. And Friday night, they're asking members of the community to share the spotlight with them.
The Inn's owners, Keith and Cindy Hummer, received a call from the Bed & Breakfast Association of Virginia, saying a reality show production team had reached out to them and asked if there were any inns that would be interested in doing a new series they were working on. The Hummers threw their name in the hat and ultimately made the cut.
The show is called "Second Act" and it tells the stories of people who are recently retired, but are now pursuing other lifelong dreams. The show's host, Paul DiMeo (of "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" fame) then comes in and works with them to help make the most of that dream.
Since they began dating, the Hummers had always talked about opening a Bed & Breakfast. They eventually bit the bullet and opened in the Inn on Campbell in January of 2012. They say they've been pleased with how it's done so far, particularly with out of town guests -- but they admit they could do a much better job attracting local visitors.
"I got a phone call from a lady in Amsterdam, [Netherlands], who said we've heard about your inn, we want to come stay," said Keith Hummer. "And I thought okay, they know about us in Amsterdam, but they don't know us a block and a half away. We have a problem."
In an effort to help them do better locally, the show connected them with a local PR firm, among other things.
They say filming the show was an experience they won't soon forget.
"When they were here -- they were wonderful people and they were a lot of fun -- but they were here from early in the morning until late at night," said Cindy Hummer. "You're living with them."
And the camera crews will be moving back in for one more day. Friday night, they'll be filming one final segment for the show during an open house the Inn is hosting from 5:00pm - 7:00pm. The Hummers say they'd like to have a strong showing from the community for the shoot and invite everyone to come see the Inn.
The Inn on Campbell is located at 118 Campbell Ave (in between 1st and 2nd Streets).
"Second Act" premieres on RLTV in May. The Hummers say the show's producers have not yet told them the exact date their episode will be airing.
SHE SAID: I'm kind of on the fence with "Calvary," between full price and matinee.

This is a story about women who are the survivors of acid attack. There are scores of new acid attack victims arriving every day at the hospital. In addition to disfigurement of the face and body, some have permanent loss of eyesight; some will never be able to eat with their mouth. In most cases the victims are women, whose burn injuries are caused by their intimate partner, spouse, or the person whom they refused to love.
Violence against women is a global phenomenon. In Bangladesh, reports of violence against women are on the rise. Oftentimes, it takes the form of acid attacks.Violence against women is closely linked to the institute of marriage, whereby the woman is considered to be guilty for any family breakup or divorce and living alone is difficult.
According to Acid Survival Foundation(ASF) in Bangladesh, from 1999 to 2011 there were 2539 acid attacks and among them 1084 were women. The ratio between male and female victims indicates the extent of violence and discrimination against women in our society.
I intend to work with women and girls who have survived an acid attack, and are trying to rebuild their lives despite carrying horrific physical scars and mental trauma. I believe the stories of these women will shed light on a very dark corner of human existence. Their story will give voice to individuals who've been silenced by their oppressors. They will tell the world that we need to campaign for women's rights to bring awareness and to stop violence.

Have you ever wanted your favorite cookie to be, well, bigger?
The Big Top Cookie bake set may be the answer to your wish, if it works. The kit comes with two giant red silicone baking molds, an insert for designs, an idea book, and a scribbler for decorating.
In the fast and easy idea guide, there are a bunch of different suggestions from an oatmeal cream cookie to an ice cream cookie sandwich, as well as different styles of cakes. For this test, we keep it basic. We're going with the old fashioned chocolate sandwich cookie.
After the molds get a soap and water bath and fully dry, we placed them on separate cookie sheets and hit them with cooking spray. Then, we mixed cocoa powder with pre-made sugar cookie dough. This took some muscle to mix together. We separated the dough into two balls, pressing them each into the molds spreading evenly to the sides.
They cook in a 350° oven for 20 to 30 minutes. A toothpick test assures we're fully baked after only 20 minutes. We placed the giant cookies in the fridge to cool on wire racks. This ensures the cookies don't break when releasing from the molds.
We allowed 40 minutes of cooling before peeling back the molds to extract the cookies. They came out easily, but with such a large cookie it's tough to support the weight without cracking.
We assembled the pieces with the cream filling in the middle. Just like that, we had a larger-than-life chocolate cookie sandwich!
Time for the taste test.
Jamie Holubik said, "It's really good, a little bit cakey and I like it."
"It's pretty good, but just like an Oreo you need milk with it," added Samuel King.
It passed the taste test, but the cookie crumbled as we made cuts. The molds were also a bit tough to clean. Otherwise, a room full of smiles means the Big Top Cookie gets a "YES" for this week's product test.
The Big Top Cookie Bake Set costs about $5 at a local retailer.

What parents are saying
Although I was concerned with the negative reviews I read on some of the "school review websites" out there, I have enrolled my two sons at Millhopper Montessori. After two tours and several interviews with other Millhopper Montessori parents, I am certain that I have made right choice. As an educator myself, I am impressed with the format and rigor of the curriculum. The teacher appear to be committed to providing relevant and engaging information to their students. The facility is bright and clean. The staff are friendly and inviting. I am excited about my decision to enroll my sons, and look forward to what Millhopper Montessori will bring to my children's education. Thank you, Adrienne Provost
Adrienne Provost
Our daughter, Ashlyn, has attended Millhopper Montessori since the age of two (2), starting at "The Little House", advancing through preschool/kindergarten, elementary school and, starting next year, middle school. We are delighted being part of the "MMS family", and have never considered changing schools; our only consideration is finding a high school like MMS, to continue the positive academic and social experience. MMS offers a broad curriculum, resulting in a well balanced education. The academic program is demanding, yet developmentally responsive and within the grasp of each student. The teachers are dedicated, well-trained and strong role models for the children. Ashlyn has developed a close, personal bond with several of them. The environment at the school creates a strong sense of belonging, and activities inside and outside of the classroom are designed to maximize the potential of each child. MMS offers an array of extracurricular activities, from sports to drama, chess (and even cooking). Most of the children enjoy staying at school "after the bell" to play in the school yard, as part of after-care. There is no better proof that the school is succeeding in its mission than to watch one's child develop a sense of responsibility, independence, social artistry and academic success. The children who graduate from MMS flourish in high school and college, a detail which is a surprise to no one. I wholeheartedly recommend Millhopper Montessori to any parent considering a school for their child.

Guild T-100
Despite the fact it was not such a popular model at the time, several variations of the T-100 exist. The earliest model had a single Franz P90 pickup (T-100 SP). A dual pickup (T-100 DP) version followed. In order to compete with Gibson's new models, a version was released as the "Guild Starfire" with two humbuckers.

George McConnell
You might remember this journeyman guitarist from his four-year stint as guitarist for Athens' Widespread Panic. The Mississippi native left that band in 2006 and now has his own band, the Nonchalants. He's been offering his Virtual 45 Series at his Web site. The series is now up to Vol. 6, with each volume a two-track download. With the Sundogs, Chase 56.
8 p.m. April 9. $8-$10. Five Spot, 1123 Euclid Ave., Atlanta. 404-223-1100.
Alan Jackson, Josh Turner, Chris Young
You know what Newnan native Alan Jackson is all about by now. The aw-shucks demeanor that sometimes verges on the stoic, the rail-thin frame topped with a cowboy hat. Most of all, you know that he's a reliable maker of pure country. Jackson's latest, "Freight Train," was released last week, 20 years sand one month after his 1990 debut, "Here in the Real World."
South Carolinian Turner's canyon-deep voice is a stunner, and he began his career in 2003 with "Long Black Train," a godly tune good enough to connect with even the most confirmed sinner. His fourth and most recent album, "Haywire," provided Turner with his third No. 1 country single, "Why Don't We Just Dance." Young was the winner of Season 4 of USA Network's "Nashville Star" talent competition. The Murfreesboro, Tenn., vocalist was also the season's only Southerner. His self-titled debut was one of the better country releases of 2006, led by its gem of a first single, "Drinkin' Me Lonely." He followed that up with his 2009 album, "The Man I Want to Be."
7 p.m. April 10. $25-$64.50. Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre, 2200 Encore Parkway, Alpharetta. 404-733-5010.
JJ Grey and Mofro
Grey's music is soulful, proud, thoughtful and unrepentantly Southern. Despite calling his latest album "Orange Blossoms," his Floridian tales aren't all sunshine and citrus. If you've never thought of Florida as a Southern state, Mofro's music is a convincing corrective — and the perfect accompaniment for a heaping helping of fried catfish and hush puppies.
8:30 p.m. April 10. $18. The Masquerade, 695 North Ave., Atlanta. 404-577-8178.
David Gray
British adult alternative fave crafts beautiful melodies and delivers them in a distinctive voice that conveys a strong emotional attachment to his songs. He returned to recording after a four-year hiatus with the 2009 album, "Draw the Line," which includes duets with Annie Lennox and Jolie Holland.
7:30 p.m. April 10. $38-$53. Boisfeuillet Jones Atlanta Civic Center, 395 Piedmont Ave., Atlanta.404-523-6275.
They were poking holes in rock's cliches long before Jack Black dreamed up Tenacious D., the actor-comedian's parody rock band. Ween is often dismissed as smirky goof-rock, but these deconstructionist jokers always display a remarkable grasp of every style they tackle. They've taken on country, R&B, progressive rock and many other genres so well that the line between homage and parody is never entirely clear in Ween's world.
8 p.m. April 10. $32.50. The Tabernacle, 152 Luckie St. N.W., Atlanta. 404-659-9022.
Manchester Orchestra
Manchester Orchestra has been building a big national fan base, but the Atlanta outfit's loyal local following requires two nights at Variety. The 2009 release "Means Everything to Nothing" is still the band's most recent full-length, but in January, MO joined forces with singer-songwriter Kevin Devine for the two-song "I Could Be the Only One." MO covers Devine's "I Could Be With Anyone," and Devine does the band's "The Only One." Earlier this year, drummer Jeremiah Edmond parted ways with Manchester Orchestra, but it was on the most amicable of terms. He'll still manage Favorite Gentlemen, the label that the band started.
8 p.m. April 14-15. $18.50-$21. Variety Playhouse, 1099 Euclid Ave., Atlanta. 404-524-7354.

An Initiative for the Health of Children
PHILADELPHIA, May 7 /PRNewswire/ -- Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. announced today that it is celebrating its ongoing partnership with the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and their work to eradicate cancer in children. The celebration will be held at the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis, TN, May 12-13, 2008.
The membership of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc., has taken on the awesome responsibility of sponsoring events at the local levels, educating and making citizens aware of the great work of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, and the ongoing need to highlight health/wellness, especially for children who need it most. The fraternity has held various golf tournaments throughout the country to raise funds for St. Jude and in 2007 launched its "Sunday of Hope Project" in partnership with churches across the country, aimed at raising funds that directly impact on the lives of children with cancer who are able to avail themselves of the great services provided by St. Jude Children's Research Center.
This celebration is being sponsored by St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, to better familiarize the leadership and members of Kappa Alpha Psi with their facilities and operations, and to encourage the long-term relationship that is expected to grow with the participation of other Greek-lettered organizations. The entire National Leadership of the fraternity, as well as the Top Ten (10) contributing Churches, and the Top Five (5) Kappa Chapters are expected to attend.
According to Grand Polemarch (president) Dwayne M. Murray, Esq., "Our
St. Jude initiative has exceeded our initial goals, and we are looking
forward to increased emphasis on health/wellness issues and increased

Babalu Sobral, Alden Halpern, Ed Soares, Tracy Lee, Jay Hieron and a few other MMA fighters were also around to see the scuffle.
yes!! we need Renato at ufc !!! lOl
Except he would get absolutely wrecked by Vinny…
Laranja is an attetionwhore trying to get in to the ufc by picking a fight.
Theres a vid where he is all up in Rogans face about getting Rogan to talk to the Fertitas about letting him get into the ufc and yada yada yada. He seems kinda retarded tbh in the vids hes in.
27 time Champ in the Douche Bag Olympics. Guy ruins his legacy ever time he speaks.
@jizlo and @Lolplata you guys are the retards Renato Laranja is not even his real name, he's an actor. He is friend with Joe Rogan and Eddie Bravo, Eddie had the idea to start the Renato Laranja character. He's not 27 time world champion, he's 0 times world champion. It's a joke!
too funny. renato is the best. except no substitute. Vinny doesnt even know who hes messing with. CARAJO!
It's a joke!
It looked like Vinny pushed the other gur 1st
those fools are whack. If either one of those dudes were game to fight in public, someone would have been cracked after the first push. Both dudes were just trying to see who's d#ck was bigger at the time and both dudes looked stupid.
You guys realize that Renato Laranja is not a real person. The persons real name is Rhasaan Orange, an actor and brown belt in 10th planet JJ. it started off as a joke but many people, including everyone who commented on this video think he is a real person and really a 27 time world champion.
Caralho! Really love this character! I saw him once on tv talking to a competitor during a bjj-event. They referred to him as Renato Laranja, 27 time world champion BJJ. To this day i still ask myself if they actually just jumped in on the trolling or if they actually believed what they said!
no its that Renato just likes to troll people, and Vinny was trying to be professional now that he's back in the UFC's good graces, no ego/bigger dick gay s*** that your used to Will.
douge bad olympics? some people open their mouth be4 thinking
That was a joke, right?
he still mad he got punk'd by nate diaz, diaz was going to wreck him bad, laranja is a lil girly bitch sissyfied
You fools!
Tts a running joke. Renato is a comedian/actor. Google him and check out his vids on YouTube. Vinny is in on the joke
Babalu was 2 seconds from owning both of those fools. Believe it.
Yeah google his vid with Ronda Roussey. Hilarious
I don't get it, does Vinny not know he's an actor?
stop this madness! Renato is a character by Rhasaan Orange and he is not even brazilian(just like borat). CARAI..
vinny will whip that dudes ass hands down
Go Renato put on the gi and teach him a lesson!!
thanks for clarifying. i thought that this was a joke but was not a 100% sure. haha.
and jay heiron got my back he dont play that s*** hes from new york lol YESS!!!
Magalhaes was a bitch douche in TUF and he still is.
@den19852–Yes, Vinny knows. He's in on it–the know each other & they've both train @ 10th Planet JJ
I like how so many got trolled by "Renato Laranja". The funniest part is that it was Bruno who trolled you all. Bruno knows exactly who Renato Laranja is.
Way to go Bruno!
+1 prankster
Dont tell people that he is a troll, let them belive it , its more funny like that
they're good mates with vinny, this is staged, its all an act just like the whole renato persona.
staged cooooooooooooome onnnn lol
Watch the video of Nate Diaz punk out this wimp.
Jew Jitsu does not equate into fighting a dangerous man, this guy is a joke, don't let this scum talk his way into a couple losing purses in the UFC…
Laranga won the bjj championships, before they were really official. He should not be bragging so much for beating 2nd tier black belts.
What I love about Laranga is that he is his own trainer and still beats the best guys.He is more deserving of fighting Jon Jones then Sonnen.
you mean the video where nate got punk'd right? how do you punk a troll by taking him serious?
Great entertainment…I love this guys videos!
Staged; like all Laranges videos.
you guys realize its all just a joke right? he is a character…
Lol I thought this was hilarious
you have wonder if its staged when everyone around them is laughing.
Lolplata clearly doesn't get the joke -_-
BIG f***** baby's
Lol, troll masters, Renato is giving Sonnen a run for his money. In REAL LIFE he's a brown belt under Eddie Bravo. Vinny is the real world champ.
Perhaps he's been "smoking the heefer" with Joe Hogan or Honda Housey? Carahlo! Datch guy, he funny!
Marcus Almeida "Buchecha" is the World Champ.
um renato laranja is really rhasaan orange, an actor. he even had parts in Days of our Lives. These two are probably friends. The only fools are the ones who think he is a troll and that this fight is real

FIX: Index Tuning Wizard Fails to Remove Hypothetical Clustered Indexes
Article ID: 290414 - View products that this article applies to.
This article was previously published under Q290414
After successfully running the Index Tuning Wizard, the hypothetical clustered indexes, whose names start with "hind", may be left behind in the database.
To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for SQL Server 2000. For more information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
(http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290211/ )How to obtain the latest SQL Server 2000 service pack
To work around this behavior:
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in SQL Server 2000. This problem was first corrected in SQL Server 2000 Service Pack 1.
The query optimizer will not use the hypothetical indexes that are left behind. Therefore, these hypothetical indexes will not cause you to obtain a bad query plan.
However,if you leave the hypothetical indexes behind, the statement or procedure might recompile several times and affect performance. Additionally, leaving the hypothetical indexes may negatively affect the quality of recommendations from later runs of the Index Tuning Wizard because there is a limit to the number of hypothetical indexes that can be created per table. Therefore, you must drop these hypothetical indexes.

Betty, the White - In a tribute to one of her all-time favorite movie series, Betty White has been working on her Gandalf beard all month. Here we caught a photo of her reenacting one of the best scenes from the movie as Betty, the White.
In honor of election day, we snapped a picture of First Lady Michelle Obama rocking the First Fu-Man-Chu. Inside sources say the style was chosen to aid relations with China as well as to appeal to the Asian vote.
Erin Andrews has never let being a woman stop her from doing what she loves - talking about football. This November she clearly intends to send the same message, refusing to let her second X chromosome stop her from growing her beard out with the players.

So over the years I have gotten a lot of questions about how someone becomes a moderator of the sex chat room. Well it's quite a process as far as the backend administration goes, and there is a lot involved in being a moderator here as well.
If someone really wants to consider becoming a mod, I suggest you think about this:
Imagine for a moment that you have complete moderator abilities – you can kick and permanently ban anyone on the site. Now think of the three things that piss you off the most (that you see happen on the site). Think it about, see it happen. See that text come across the screen. Those three things happen, all in a row, from three different people.
Now, If one of those things were spamming for a commercial site, and another was saying they were not yet eighteen years old – then throw those out of this exercise. Now focus on the things that those people just did in the chat room.
do you click the name and click "kick" – do you click the name and click "ban"?
If you did, then you are not going to like the rules that the moderators must follow. You would also most likely not keep moderator status for very long if you got it in the first place. The ability to kick and ban users is rarely allowed by the site admins if the user is doing anything other than spamming for a commercial site or is projecting themselves as being not yet 18 years old.
A majority of the moderation is spent educating users about the rules and not kicking people – even when the majority of users would like to see that person kicked.
Becoming a mod – how it happens
There is the consideration process that the would-be-mod must go through. Before someone can become a moderator, then have to read and completely understand the etiquette rules, the site's terms of service, and the 30 or so pages of moderators procedures and mod notes / mod discussion area. There is a lot of reading involved, (I think one of our newer moderators said it took about 4 hours to read all the mod discussion area? and because of that it was about a week before they could take it all in and consider further) and it's quite a lot to understand and agree to.
The mod rules are strict, and keep the mods from kicking for 99% of the things that piss you off – if you can't handle that – then the job is not for you.
For the administration portion of becoming a moderator, once someone is being considered, we put their name up in the mod discussion area for votes from our current mods. If any one of the mods chimes in with some reason that someone should not be a moderator, then they are out. Basically it only takes one black ball from one of the current mods and someone it takes out of the running. If someone makes it through that discussion and voting process and everyone gives a thumbs up, then we may grant temporary moderator status, like a 30 day trial to see how things go, and how things are handled, and if we get an any complaints. Then we go from there.
Sometimes moderators choose to resign the position, as it is a lot of work, and takes away from the fun. Sometimes we revoke a mods status for various reasons as well.
If reading this and the comments below here have not scared you enough already, and you would like to further consider volunteering for the moderating position, then you could send an email to me (site admin / Nash) at firstname.lastname@example.com – In the email you send, please include the following:
- Screen name(s) you use in the chat
- the general time window that you get in the chat (and whether your times are in EST or GMT, etc)
- The city / state / country you are in
- Approximately how long have you been using the chat rooms here? (weeks, months, etc?)
- Which chat rooms within our systems do you frequent?
- Names of any enemies you have made in the room
- Names of any friends (don't list more than 5 please)
- any moderating, internet or real world experience in policing, refereeing, etc you may have
- an agreement that if you are given access to the mods only discussion area, that you will keep ALL info contained within completely confidential – not to be shared with anyone, copied, saved, or used in any way outside of this web site, ever, or with anyone aside from current moderators and site admins.
I may post some of the info you send in the email to the password protected-moderators-only-discussion area in order to get feedback from the other moderators. If you send some details in the email that you would be uncomfortable with me sharing with the other moderators please mention this in the email. I normally will not share an entire email anyway, but it does help to point out some things like times and groups of friends and stuff so the other mods can get an idea of who we are talking about that is up for consideration to become a new mod.

I would love to help with the site
Hey guys,
Ok, so fairly new user here, but I would just like to put out that I think annabel ® ™ would make an amazing moderator, even now when there are no mods around and users violate the rules (inclusive of myself *sighs* yes I know !!) she steers them in a friendly but stern way towards the light.
It is the tone that makes the music my mother always tells me and Annabel possesses the tone needed to moderate these rooms I believe. She is always kind to everyone, never fans the flames and always seems to be the voice of reason for everyone.
Anyway, I really hope you will consider her for I think she would be an asset to your team

Thank you,
Really considering being a mod now, especially since the past few days/week there have been a lot of people breaking the rules and haven't seen many mods lately. I would just like to try and keep it peaceful when there aren't any other mods available.

Hello, I would like an opportunity to reapply to be a mod on this site. I enjoy coming to this site; I have alot of friends here and i have no enemies here at all.
I feel I could be an asset to this site in the position of moderator. I have helped several different mods here being another set of eyes, calling their attention to minors, spammers, etc.
I know I have been told perhaps that "I am too nice" but honestly, I feel that I would certainly be able to handle myself in a respectful and dignified manner as a mod. I am also available to be a mod at times when no mods are present, early mornings and afternoons (NY time).
Please consider my reapplication to join the hard-working team of mods on this site.
Thank you,
I want to fuck you
consider my name for moderator
sir i posted my wish to become as moderator but it seems to be removed may i know why it has been deleted?
sir consider my name for admin !
I would like to point out, to many of you that wish to be a Mod. I have been a Mod in 50+ websites, and Several of my own for personal reasons. Youcannt be biased, and you cannt play favourites. You need to really sit down and think. " HM. Am I going to give up looking cool, and not kick him/her because of MY RULES?" Or.." I'm going to kick him because my friend's are going to peer pressure me."Infact, you can do neither.It's unsightly when Mods lose their sense of responsibilties ( None of which I have seen here, many other websites however.) And do what they dang well please! It's bad. It's a lot of rules, and a lot of learning. And hard work! You need to be able to commit yourself to it, and stick with it. I would also like to thank Jenny BBW and BigTex™©(Str8-M-55): For their very generous contribution to knowlede forme to futher myself in becomming a Sex Chat Mod. Thank you!
I agreee..
I would like to recommend that Al, known as Canadian23m-Literate Chatters Only, become a Moderator. I believe he would be the next great addition to the website. He spends several hours chatting and as far as I have noticed, he has followed all rules and even helps to spread them when no one else is around. I, with all my heart, believe that he would be fair and help to improve the site from spammers, rule-breakers, and offensive posts. I please ask that you consider him for the position. I would not take the time out of my day to recommend someone like this if I did not believe it would be beneficial to the masses. Thank you for your consideration.
i read all the rule and agreed with them……i will follow all the rules and perform my duty well…..and i think i will be the best because i use this site more than 8 hours……so plzzz can i be the moderator of this site…..plzzz
i agree…………
i would like to become a mod , i have read the rules and i studied them and i have though about it and i made up my mind on it.
Hi i would like to become a site moderator and i have read and understood the rules, i often come on the site practically everyday and there are many things that annoy me in which annoys a lot of other people even the other mods as i have seen them kick and ban the people who deserve to be so i know exactly what to do in the lesbian chat room and when to do it.
I would like to become a mod i am very experienced and i also read ur rules and i know what to do
So, I have been comming here for a long time. I have thought long and hard about being a mod, and i think it is something i really want to do. I would love to be more involved with the site, and I know that the rooms i frequently go to need a perma-mod. The issues that could be resolved from having a mod in there at all times would be amazing. I would love the chance if it will be given to me.
i would like to be a Admin please
i would like to be a Mod please
I also want to be a moderator.
After much careful consideration I would like the opportunity to apply as one of your mods. I am on more hours than I care to admit but see alot of underage and cam requests when other mods are finally taking a much needed break. I really enjoy your sight and am looking forward to hearing from you.
Want to register for the post of mod.
i would like to be a moderater

well where to begin. today I asked Tasty Temptress about becoming a Mod and she directed me to this link and after reading the main section and all the comments I never relized how involved it was to be an admin… I've been coming to this sight for over 6 months give or take now and I've had a blast meeting new people and having fun ;). but my hat comes off to the admins and Mods you all do a great job keeping everything flowing in the chat rooms. I myself thought I'd throw my name in the hat, sorta speak, to be a mod but after reading this I think I'll refrain till a much later date as I don't think I'm ready to submit myself for such a trying task. I've done some mod/admin work in a Call Of Duty Clan but this is much, much more intricate. as it stands I will be content to be a friend to ya'll in the chat and hope to see ya'll in there at some time or another.
best regards,
P.S. keep up the good work ya'll
Hello everyone,
I love that we have a spot to send people if they are curious to know how one becomes a moderator. Its very difficult to explain in a one on one conversation while you are also moderating the room. So kudos on having a page for it.
I have been a moderator for this room for over a year now. I love being a moderator here. Not because I have been given "the power" as so many seem to enjoy calling it. I enjoy it because I know the work that I do for this site, and the feedback that I give, is appreciated by most of its users, and the site administration. I find it very challenging, but rewarding just the same.
I would definately say that if you are not fond of change, not fond of providing well thought out input, not fond of structure, not fond of a team approach, if you are ill tempered, very opinionated, etc…This will not be something you enjoy. And if you cannot enjoy doing it, there really is no point in going any further than this link.
I am excited to see all the improvements and discussions that have taken place over the last year and have never regretted my decision to accept the moderator position. I am happy to have such a great community to belong to. And thanks to Nash and my fellow moderators. I am always impressed with the ideas and feedback you provide.
Tasty Temptress
Hello Nash, I have made a comment on the rule and etiquette site. I would like to add something on this site, since you posted me the link to get here and were pondering who could put up with the crazy admin and the rules and so on…. – smiles – .
I would like to compliment the current mods in the free sexchat. On my opinion they are doing a fantastic job. I value what they do and how they do it. When they are on.

Hope I get the chance to be a Mod
Thanks again
For starters, I have to applaud the administration. I've been a regular member of the Sex Chat for a little over two years and in that time I've seen what they've had to endure. There is an insurmountable amount of discipline, patience, and responsibility to keeping the chat running as smoothly as it does. Along with those traits, a moderator also has to understand the diversity of individuals that do and may frequent the chat. They must know that no one person will be the same and each culture has a different way of conversing with others. By this, I mean that our words and how we portray them in text, may mean something different from what another may perceive it to mean. This alone has been a culprit in many flamed arguments among the chat patrons.
There is no one-place perfect, especially when it's frequented by so many individuals from all over the globe. However, the administration has done a fantastic job in keeping it as free as possible from the worst possible offenders. It's not an easy job and it's a constant one, and personally, I'd like to commend Steve (Nash) and his administration for doing a wonderful job that is not at all an easy one to do. Well done!!
Thanks Sweet Debs:), hugs
Hugs to you!
hi…i wanna be a mod…n m ready 2 tak ujp dis job…can any 1 help me out??
Well, I gave up on being a mod a while back, I have many enemies and I am the unintentional source of a lot of lobby drama, but I would just like to say that I appreciate all the help I myself have recieved from moderators, and that I think it is great that they all stepped up to the plate. Thanks alot guys.
Wow!! loved reading the comments and advice given above, especially from Ms.Interrupted, and of course Boots and last but by no means least Huggin Mikey, who i have come to know and indeed respect over the past few months.
It is evident that one must have a balanced point of view – and indeed it must be difficult at times to "swallow" rather than kick as i understand fully that the site requires clients/members to survive the same really as any business.
I believe that the current Moderators are going about their business in a very professional manner and are so very helpful and understanding to all clients, even though at times they are pushed to the limit, and even beyond it.
I certainly have a better understanding as to how Moderators work, their pressures, patience and attitudes and the contribution they make to ensure this site is run on a professional basis.
Thank you for your information and contribution.
I love having hot talks
I think to be considered someone 1) must have been a site visitor for a minimum of 3 months or longer, 2) must have followed all the etiquette rules and not have been kicked for any reason, 3) should not have been involved in any lobby "flame wars" or fanned any in anyway, 4) someone who is mature, respectful AND respectable, kind, caring, considerate, and thick-skinned…as you said Nash sometimes you got to bite the bullet. It's kind of like being a cop in addition to the qualities Boots listed in her comments.
Hi all,
Like Nash and probably all the mods I get ask questions of what it is like being a mod and so on, so I will do my best to answer them, by the way always feel free to question me.
The questions I usually get asked are. 1) How do I become a mod? When asked that I will give the contact address of the site and asked that the person sends a email to Nash. 2) Do you get paid? No, it is all done voluntary. 3) What does it detail? Lots of hard work, you also have to put your emotions and personal feelings to one side which can be hard at times, no denying that. 4) Do you feel powerful for kicking someone? No I only kick when necessary I would rather not kick and educate when possible.
So I did I want to become a mod? Since I join sexchat, in late May 2010, I have been made very welcome by the people here, it is like a second family to me, and I like helping.
In finishing modding can be hard, but so rewarding.
Heyyy thankzz a went thru all the mods i liked urs the most n lol u gamve me the link also wld like to talk wid u sum day properly to get more tips for being a mod
Just to add another uplifting note on modding, being a mod means being an unpaid concierge, mediator, counselor, interpreter, judge, jury and all to be done with maturity, respect and politeness. And you have to have patience and willingness to repeat yourself 1000 times. But I wouldn't trade it for the world. Having a repertoire with the larger population of users also helps, personally having nearly 5 years on this site has been a huge advantage.
As I think the newest mod on the site at the moment, the process is very fresh in my mind. Yes, there is a lot of reading to do, and a lot of information to process. It is a steep learning curve. And yes it is hard work. The biggest changes to my life online so far would have to be:
1. I now cannot ignore/block any users (so I have to read pretty much everything that is posted despite how some of it makes me feel). And wow, do you ever miss that ignore/block feature sometimes!
2. I need to keep the people arriving/leaving option on so I can quickly identify any users logging on that may be an issue (ie with cam or underage reference in their name). This makes the room move very, very fast and can really make your head spin!
3. I can no longer just "hang out" in the lobby where I am most comfortable, I need to visit other rooms that I would normally never go into, and sometimes spend time in them, just chatting to users to try and help them fit in on the site. Sometimes I read things in these rooms that make me feel really uncomfortable, but I can't judge.
4. I spend a lot of time now talking with people "behind the scenes" trying to help them adjust to life on sexchat if they are new. This includes helping them understand the site rules, etiquette, how to upload an avatar ….. even giving them some personal advice on how best to perhaps integrate into the community faster. This process can take up a lot of time, so naturally it decreases the amount of time I spend talking with my "friends" and participating in general lobby banter.
5. I've had to really stop and think often "how would Steve / Sex Chat Admin" handle this situation. Some of the rules and guidelines we have to follow I might not always agree with. I certainly do have the opportunity to express those concerns on the moderator forums, but you really have to leave your personal judgement on some topics at the door. And the rules and guidelines and warnings change, so you have to keep up with all of that and be willing to spend the time to learn them and adapt.
6. I'm happy to say I have not once been tempted yet to abuse my mod "powers". However, I can see that it would be very, very tempting. And it's something you have to think about. Every single action you take as a mod, whether it is a warning, a kick or a ban has got to be able to be justified and you have to be accountable for it. There are also legal issues involved, along with privacy issues. So say for example a friend asks you to kick someone, or you're online and heaps of people tell you "kick this person because they're being vile" ….. you can't just say sure and do it. You have to keep calm and go along with the mod guidelines. And it also doesn't give you any super sexiness powers I might add …….. sure there will always be users who would like to add a mod as a notch to their belt (and yes someone did use those words to me), but at the end of the day you are still you. Sadly, being a mod doesn't instantly turn you into a sex god/goddess! In fact, sometimes the opposite can be true, it can cut down on the amount of interaction you have with potential "friends". So you need to consider that and work out how to handle it.
Now …….. these things all sound kind of negative, so I want to balance that out a bit. On the positive side, you get to be part of a community which I have loved from day 1, quirks and all, good and bad! You get to be able to assist in shaping and influencing that community, try and keep it a fun place, because let's face it, most of us come here for time out from our real lives. You also have the opportunity to chime in with suggestions and feedback about the site and once again possibly influence the community. The other mods are amazing and welcoming and are always available to help you ……. and boy have I asked some "newbie" questions, and still will. And lastly, Steve, the guy who at the end of the day decides yay or nay, and whether you stay or go …….. well, he's a really decent guy and will always, always help out, clarify things, listen to complaints or suggestions, and it's because of his amazing site and his support of me in the past that I agreed to become a mod, and why I'm enjoying the experience so far very much. MI (Ms.Interrupted)

One word came to mind while working out the NHL power rankings for week 12, and that was logjam. The league has really started to divide itself into the are nots, could bes and the ares. It has more or less worked itself into a three-tiered system, with several really bad teams tanking while squads jostle for position in the middle of the pack.
Nothing makes cleaning up the power rankings easier than a nice winning streak. Four or five wins in a row, and a team can comfortably slide on up the ladder. There haven't been very many "hot" teams recently though, and only six teams have winning streaks longer than a single game currently.
With so much congestion, ironing out who beat who and where that should place them took some time, but the results were gratifying.
As usual, no team can move up or down more than five spots in any given week. So if a team was in 10th place last week they can't jump higher than fifth or lower than 15th. This prevents any massive knee-jerk reactions, while forcing teams to play solid hockey for a few weeks running to make any real progress.

Peter Nowak to Coach in… Delaware?
It appears Peter Nowak has found a new coaching gig – Saturday mornings at Kirkwood Soccer Club in New Castle, Delaware. An email sent by the club states:
Psst… It hasn't been announced yet, but Peter Nowak from the Philadelphia Union will be calling KSC his home. Peter will be running his camp series exclusively at Kirkwood along with other programs beginning as early as this Spring. More information will be coming soon, stay tuned…
Nowak has experience coaching youths, most notably serving as the United States U-23 head coach before taking the job in Philadelphia. He also served as head coach of DC United from 2004-06. Nowak managed the Union in 2010-12 before being fired and replaced by then-assistant and current-manager John Hackworth.

Camillus West Genesee High School officials have confirmed a bomb threat has been called into the school.
Students were evacuated from the school around lunch after a bomb threat was reported to the school, superintendent Chris Brown said. Students were evacuated from the school as a precaution and were left outside for "about five minutes," Brown said. They were then taken to warm buses as attendance was taken and police began sweeping the school.
Parents waited in nearby Lowe's parking lot for their children to be released from school. Any student who walked or drove to school were released. Students are expected to be allowed back in the school for personal belongings, like car keys or coats, once police finish sweeping the school to determine if there are any hazards.
The school's 1,650 students were all released early. After-school and evening activities were also cancelled. Brown said staff plan for events like these. He immediately posted information to Twitter. Emails to people signed up on the School News Notifier and the Camillus Police Nixle page were also sent out.
Camillus Police, Fairmount Fire Department, the Onondaga County Sheriff's Office, New York State Police and Syracuse Police's K-9 units responded to the school.
"We are doing a criminal investigation to determine who is responsible for the bomb threat," said Camillus Police Chief Tom Winn. "We are using all of resources at the Camillus Police Department to locate and apprehend the person because of the disruption caused to students, faculty and the community."
Because of the ongoing criminal investigation, Winn will not comment on how the district or police learned of the apparent threat.
"Look at the volume of resources we are using to make sure the building is safe and to apprehend the person responsible," Winn said.
The district does have security cameras in the high school.

Fairfax County Police are looking for the suspect who assaulted a 17-year-old girl in a highly unusual place, a public library in Falls Church.
It happened just before 9 p.m. Tuesday as the staff was preparing to close the Thomas Jefferson Library for the day.
Investigators say the girl had been at the library for most of the day studying and noticed a guy staring at her. On her way out of the library, the girl told police the man followed her, so she ducked into the women's bathroom instead of going out in the parking lot alone.
"This person followed her into the bathroom and assaulted her," said Lucy Caldwell, spokesperson for Fairfax County Police. "She kicked him and screamed and he fled."
Library employees heard the girl scream when the man touched and pushed her.
Anna Villagomez, who also had been studying at the library all day, says she sometimes worried about being in the parking lot at night, but never imagined something like that happening inside the library.
"Usually it's really safe, but there are sometimes people who you need to watch out for occasionally," Villagomez says.
Emily Palacios had just left the library minutes before the attack.
"I'm not going to go to the bathroom now, and I'll make sure I have my cell phone or something," says Palacios.
Police say library employees have seen the man there before, but never had any trouble from him. They are hoping someone who recognizes his description will give detectives a call.
"This person is 5'7" to 5'10", African American, has a shaved, bald head," says Caldwell.
At the time of the attack, the suspect was wearing a pale green, long-sleeved button-up shirt and khaki pants. He was also carrying a tan, soft leather briefcase.
If you think you know this man, you are urged to call Fairfax Police at 1-866-411-TIPS (8477).

So our two-month adventure has begun. We're two days into our Hawaiian sabbatical and we've already experienced a hiccup in our trip. Our car was towed after parking it in front of my sister's building for a bit too long. So we're out $200, which is a big dent in our budget. But what I love about the situation is that while both my husband and I were seriously irritated at the situation – we never got angry or blamed each other. We just chalked it up to a mistake, and once we paid the tow fee we both agreed to let go and not dwell on our initial bad luck.
It's moments like these that make me so happy that I have a fantastic travel partner. It also gave our kids an opportunity to see how mom and dad deal with stress.
Otherwise, our flight to Hawaii went pretty smoothly. The baby was perfect – he barely made a peep. My oldest son kept himself busy by reading the crash landing manual. It was actually my 4-year-old son who got squirmy in the middle of the trip. My husband pretty much just kept him busy with video games and snacks. We do whatever we need to survive a plane trip.
Once we landed, we checked into our hotel in Waikiki. Now I pretty much grew up in Waikiki (surfing at Canoe's during all of high school and attending various dances and proms at local hotels), but returning after more than 10 years away has made me realize that I'm way too old and impatient for it. I used to love the crowds and all the sights. Now the busy streets seem too dangerous to walk with 3 kids in tow. And the parking, OH THE PARKING! It's ridiculous. And it just seems more touristy than I remember. But I could just be getting old and cranky.
The one plus is the proximity to the beach and beautiful Kapiolani Park, where my sons climbed banyan trees and ran around chasing pigeons. The only thing this park needs is a playground.
Luckily, we move to a new vacation rental tomorrow that's a house, not a condo. We'll have ample parking, more space, and a pool that we share with just 2 other units, not a whole building.
We did manage to drive to Kailua beach today to pick up a couple of surfboards to use on our trip. I've forgotten how beautiful and laid back it was in Kailua. I highly recommend staying out there to anyone traveling to Oahu. I may change our plans to stay out there for our last week in Hawaii.
And as far as adjusting to Hawaiian time, we're doing great now. The boys woke up at 4:30 am the first morning – thank goodness my husband woke up with them. I would have been a walking zombie. But after a long nap, they seem to be back on track.
