INVOLVED: Nate Anderson & Phoebe Berry
TIME FRAME: Tuesday Morning
LOCATION: Equinox of Downtown LA.
NOTES: It's business as usual at the fitness club where Phoebe works, that is until she sees Nate. After weeks of avoiding each other they're forced to speak.
[Nate pulled his face back from the crook of Phoebe's neck so that he could look her in the eye. He could feel her clench around him, that itself nearly making come. The look on her face, contorted with pleasure, was what brought him over the edge though. His hips shuddered as he finally came, grip weakening on Phoebe's lips. Once he had finished riding out his orgasm, he slowly pulled out and set her back on her feet. Pressing his forehead against hers and breathing in deeply as he came down from his high, he found himself kissing her once more.]
[Phoebe couldn't place the emotion which was surging through her petite frame as Nate dropped her back down onto her feet. His lips meeting hers only this time there was no real rush on either of their parts to break away. Basking in the perfect feeling she sighed blissfully against his lips. Her hand reaching up to delicately cup his jaw. Suddenly she found herself not wanting to leave. Trying not to let those thoughts linger she did her best to ignore them all the while.]
[Nate sped up his thrusts, driving deep inside of her. This felt so much better than he could have imagined, and he wondered to himself why the hell they had never does this before, because he couldn't think of any reason not to have her in his bed constantly.]
Fuck, Phoebe…
[He bit her neck as he felt his release building up. He fucked her harder still, wanting to make her come just as he did.]
[Phoebe dropped her head back against the wall, moaning loudly as Nate fucked her against the wall with reckless abandon. Her legs quivering as the speed of his thrusts began taking his toll on her. Holding on much longer wasn't an option.]
Oh, god. You feel so…so good.
[She gritted out, shuddering violently as he sunk his teeth into her neck. Tugging desperately at the hair she found at the base of his neck. Suddenly, she was clenching around him. His name falling from her lips in a sharp cry as her hips bucked into his weakly, riding out her orgasm.]
[Nate couldn't take his eyes off of Phoebe as she rid herself of the final few layers of clothing. At this point even he couldn't keep up with just teasing her. This whole night they had been teasing each other, and now he just wanted to have her completely. He gripped her waist with one hand, using the other to guide his length inside of Phoebe slowly. He gave her a moment to adjust before speeding the motion of his hips as he thrust into her. He buried his face against her neck as he fucked her, overwhelmed by how much he needed this, needed her right now.]
[Phoebe gasped softly as Nate finally gave her what she was looking for, slipping into her with ease. Adjusting to his generous size, she immediately wrapped her arms around his neck for support as he began fucking her.]
Mm, yes. Harder.
[She encouraged, rolling her hips into his to meet his vigorous thrusts. She'd fantasized about this moment countless times but damn did it feel so much better than she could have ever imagined. She didn't know how she'd be able to keep herself from desperately wanting him after this night.]
[Nate watched as Phoebe worked over his cock expertly with her mouth, so close to coming right then. But there was so much he still wanted to do before coming.]
Fuck, Phoebe… Wait.
[He said, his voice heavy with lust, guiding Phoebe off of his cock.]
I need to fuck you.
[As she got up he spun them around so that her back was against the wall, guiding his cock to rub against her entrance.]
[Phoebe furrowed her brows slightly when she heard Nate speak. Her stomach instantly dropping as she worried he was the one who had finally come to his senses. Her lips parted to speak, profusely apologize before scurrying off.]
Ah, shit…
[She muttered quietly as he pulled her up from her knees, realization dawning on her as the words he followed up with sunk in. Blowing out a breath she quickly got with the picture. Discarding the rest of her clothes clumsily. Softly she whimpered as he teased her relentlessly. Arching her hips against him to feel more of the delicious friction. Sliding her fingers through his hair she gripped roughly as her legs wrapped around his waist.]
Mm, Nate, no more teasing. Please just fuck me already.
[Nate groaned as Phoebe finally sank her mouth down on him. His head thudded lightly against the wall behind him, the warm, wet heat of her mouth shooting spike of pleasure through his body. He looked back down at her after a moment, not wanting to miss the sight. He piled her hair behind her face with one hand as he watched, already embarrassing close to the edge. His hips bucked shallowly into her mouth even as he tried to keep them still. This wasn't at all how he expected their night to go, but he was never one to complain.]
[The sounds she was eliciting from Nate served as the ultimate ego boost. Not to mention a serious turn on. With a half lidded gaze Phoebe continued to stare up at him. Each shallow thrust he gave bringing him deeper into her mouth. Humming around his length, she began to pick up the pace. Meeting each of his thrusts to take him almost completely into her mouth.]
[Nate watched, entranced, as Phoebe began kissing lower and lower down his body. The thought of Phoebe going down on him was something he'd imagined before, and now it was about to become reality. He kept his eyes on her, brushing some of her hair out of the way to get a better view.]
So fucking hot, babe…
[Phoebe had been in this position before. Only whenever she took home an occasional one night stand she knew it was someone she'd likely never see again. In the back of her mind she had to wonder how differently Nate would see her after this. But she couldn't be bothered to care not in the heat of the moment. Smirking upwards at him she finally reached her destination. Hastily she undid the button of his jeans. The zipper drawn downwards a second later. Freeing him from the confines of his underwear, her lips hovered over him for a minute before she finally took him into her mouth. Her determined stare unwavering.]
Hey, a casual affair
That could go anywhere
And only for tonight
Take any moment, any time
A lover on the left
A sinner on the right

Karessa "Bug" Sweeney made an adjustment in the batter's box near the end of the regular season, and that change sparked the junior's offense and helped fuel Wheeler's run to the Class 2A regional title.
Sweeney, who was batting around the .100-mark for portions of the season, went back to a process she had used earlier in her career called "slugging." When slugging, she squares around as though to bunt before pulling the bat back to get into hitting position.
"It's pretty much a right-handed slap," Sweeney said. "It helps me to hit the ball better. I was dipping my shoulder. I tried a lot of stuff in the cage nothing really worked."
Since she made the adjustment, Sweeney has raised her batting average to .292 from .240 at the end of the regular season. She is 7-for-14 with a home run and six RBIs in the postseason.
"It allows her to keep her head locked in and see the pitch with both eyes," Wheeler coach Marc Bruner said. "It has paid off for her."
In the regional championship at Winamac, Sweeney had three hits, including a two-run home run. She finished Wheeler's 10-0 win with three hits, three RBIs and three runs.
"It's the middle of the order pop now that we are really starting to get," Bruner said. "Angelise Vukan is our No. 4 hitter, Bug's our No. 5 and Kayla Aytes is our No. 6 hitter. The three of them have really stepped it up here in the postseason."
Sweeney delivered the game-winning single in the seventh inning of Wheeler's 2-1 victory over Whiting in the sectional championship game.
Not only did Sweeney make a change at the plate, but she also changed positions in the field during the season.
After starting the year at shortstop, Sweeney swapped positions with Kylie Horn near the end of the regular season and moved to second base.
"We made the switch in the middle of the Boone Grove game, and we haven't looked back since," Bruner said. "It's that kind of maturity out of a kid that we really think is valuable. She has a great attitude about everything all the time.
"I think we could put her at any spot and she would flourish because she's just a softball player."
Bruner said the Wheeler defense has seemed more comfortable since the switch happened.
"I was a little iffy about it at first, but it helped the team a lot and I like it," Sweeney said.

Warner Music has just announced that it has signed up to offer music videos, live shows and interviews of its artists on the popular online video site Hulu.
This is interesting as Warner Music is the only one of the so-called big four major music companies that hasn't signed up to put its music on Vevo, the premium music video site jointly owned by Universal Music Group, Sony Music Entertainment and Abu Dhabi Media Company. Vevo is built on the technology platform of YouTube. Warner and YouTube have recently fallen out then settled over licensing terms.
Ultimately, this is about business for Warner. As the only publicly traded music company, Warner Music Group seems keen to occasionally go a different route from its other major label rivals as its executives will argue they have shareholders to answer to.
But are people going to go to Hulu for music videos? That remains to be seen. Warner exec Michael Nash said in the press release that Hulu offers its artists a "customized and flexible approach to marketing and monetizing their music".
Warner artists like Muse, Jason Mraz and Paramore will be among those to feature in the deal. The news comes after EMI signed up with Hulu in Nov. EMI also signed up put its artists videos on Vevo, though it is not an equity partner.

Glacier Fluctuations Since the Last Glacial Maximum in Southwest Alaska part of Vignettes:Vignette Collection
Glacier fluctuations since the last glacial maximum in southwest Alaska Introduction During the last glacial maximum (LGM), alpine glaciers in the western cordillera expanded, coalesced, and flowed onto newly-emergent continental shelves (Figure 1). During and after deglaciation, rising seas again submerged these shelves, obscuring the deposits left in the termination zones of these glaciers. Luckily for geologists, outlet glaciers also flowed into unglaciated lowlands on the landward side of the cordillera. The deposits associated with these land-terminating glaciers are relatively well-preserved, and can be used to reconstruct the extent of glaciation during the LGM, as well as the timing and style of deglaciation. Ongoing research in southwest Alaska provides an excellent learning example of the use of these geomorphic records to reconstruct landscape history. Geomorphic evidence of the last glacial maximum in southwest Alaska The Alaska Range is a rugged mountain range in south-central Alaska, home to Mt. McKinley (Denali), the highest peak in North America (6194 m). It is also the northernmost extent of the Cordilleran Ice Sheet, a continuous ice cap that formed along the Pacific coast of North America during the LGM. The western flank of the Alaska Range is an area of ongoing study of glacier dynamics during and following the LGM. Well-preserved moraines and associated glacial deposits record and permit reconstruction of the events that occurred there. The most prominent depositional glacial landforms in the area are the terminal moraines emplaced by piedmont glaciers during their late Wisconsin maximum extent. Over many hundreds of years, glacial till melting out of the ablation zone of the glaciers accumulated at their snouts to form broad, 1- to 2-km-wide hummocky ridges. Melting of ice blocks buried within the moraine resulted in the formation of hundreds of small kettle lakes on this landform. These moraines are visible in elevation data and satellite imagery and can be traced for hundreds of miles along the western flank of the Alaska Range (Figures 2, 3). Upstream from the terminal moraine, a series of similar landforms are present. These are recessional moraines, recording the long process of retreat following the LGM. These moraines were built by glaciers that either temporarily readvanced during overall retreat, or simply paused long enough to build a significant moraine. In many locations in southwest Alaska, at least four recessional moraine-building events, or stades, are recognized, often correlatable from valley to valley. Determining the age of glacial landforms How can we constrain the ages of the LGM and subsequent recessional stades? Because very little vegetation was present during the last glacial maximum, radiocarbon is rarely able to produce more than broadly-defined minimum and maximum ages. Optically-stimulated luminescence has the advantage of not requiring organic matter–it dates sand grains directly. However, OSL has not been thoroughly tested on glacial deposits in Alaska, and it only works on those grains that were sufficiently exposed to sunlight before deposition. Cosmogenic radionuclide (CRN) dating is a tool that is well-suited to determining the age of a glacial moraine. By measuring the levels of cosmogenic isotopes (isotopes produced by the interaction of high-energy particles from space with minerals on earth) in boulders on the crest of a moraine, geologists can determine how long the boulder has been exposed. However, workers must be careful to select only those boulders that appear to be relatively stable. Boulders that have shifted or rolled since deposition will have received less cosmogenic radiation, resulting in ages younger than the age of the landform. An additional source of uncertainty is shielding of cosmic rays by seasonal snowcover. This source of uncertainty can be reduced by sampling only those boulders that protrude well above the surrounding moraine surface. CRN Samples taken from boulders on the LGM terminal moraine on the western flank of the Alaska Range suggest that the moraine stabilized between 19-23 ka. The actual age of the LGM is likely toward the older end of this range, because the moraine boulders were probably subject to shifting for several hundred years after deposition. The recessional moraines are as yet undated. However, other forms of evidence provide insight. Radiocarbon dates from the base of cores taken from several kettle lakes along the shores of Lake Clark indicates that the glacier front had retreated into mountain valleys by 15 ka. Deglaciation was probably complete in southwest Alaska by around 11 ka. Neoglaciation Temperatures were at or above modern levels during the earliest Holocene, a period dubbed the Holocene Thermal Maxmimum. Most glaciers were probably smaller during this period than they are today. By the mid-Holocene (~5 ka), global temperatures were once again dropping, causing glaciers to advance beyond their early Holocene minima. This renewed glacial activity is referred to neoglaciation. On the western flank of the Alaska Range, 2-4 moraines of probable mid- to late-Holocene age are present. These relatively small moraines are overwhelmed and partially buried by a much larger, more voluminous moraine immediately downvalley of modern glacier termini (Figure 4) This younger moraine is often sharp-crested, unvegetated, and up to 100 m high. Field observations indicate that it is ice-cored, suggesting that its apparent volume may be transient. Dating of the older neoglacial moraines could best be accomplished with cosmogenic radionuclides. However, CRNs are not as effective for the younger, ice-cored moraine. Instead, its age is best constrained with lichenometry. Lichenometry is a method wherein the age of a moraine is estimated by comparing the largest lichens growing on moraine boulders with a known lichen growth rate. Though this method is somewhat imprecise (uncertainty ~ +/- 20%), lichen sizes on the youngest, ice-cored moraines suggest that they date to the culmination of the Little Ice Age (LIA) toward the end of the 19th century.
Arroyo Cutting in the Southwestern U.S. part of Vignettes:Vignette Collection
Introduction In the semiarid southwestern United States, water is extremely important. However, most streams in the region are ephemeral, meaning that they are dry for much of the year and flow only during flash floods and/or spring snowmelt. Many of these streams are confined to deep, steep-walled channels entrenched into alluvial valley bottoms. These channels are called arroyos, and can be found in drylands throughout the world (Figure 1). Most arroyos in the Southwest were cut between 1880 and 1910 AD. Prior to this historic episode of arroyo-cutting, settlers characterized valley bottoms as marshy wetlands or grasslands with shallow channels. During arroyo-cutting, observers described the upstream migration of steep headcuts during successive floods. This incision and subsequent widening of channels led to the loss of thousands of acres of farmland; destruction of roads, dams, and canals; and ultimately the abandonment of several communities. Figure 2 shows the striking example of Kanab, UT, where a ~30 m deep arroyo now runs along the town's western edge. Hypothesized causes of arroyo cutting For almost a century, geologists have debated the cause of historic arroyo cutting. Most hypotheses fit into one of three categories: (1) Intensive grazing and floodplain alteration associated with Anglo settlement led to increased runoff during storms, causing more erosive floods; (2) Arroyo cutting was the result of climate change. A wide range of climatic mechanisms have been suggested, ranging from fluctuations in groundwater levels to episodes of catastrophic flooding; and (3) Arroyo cutting and filling is an inherent behavior of semiarid drainage systems, wherein pulses of incision followed by widening and eventually aggradation migrate upstream in response to local slope anomalies. This last hypothesis is known as the 'complex response' hypothesis. In reality, each of the above hypotheses likely played some role in arroyo cutting. Despite the complex interactions of these possible driving mechanisms, the regional synchronicity of historic arroyo cutting has led many recent workers to conclude that the dominant driving mechanism must be one that operates across a whole region rather than on individual watersheds. As a result, much attention has been focused on the various climatic drivers proposed in hypothesis (2). Stratigraphic evidence Cutbanks along modern arroyos provide 'windows' into the hydrologic history (paleohydrology) of a stream. Alluvial deposits and stratigraphic relations exposed in these windows reveal that many cycles of arroyo cutting and filling have occurred throughout the Holocene (~10,000 BC-present). Evidence of these cycles lies in the form of aggradational sequences overlying and truncated by paleochannels (e.g. Figure 3). Usually, the aggradational "packages" represent the filling of an arroyo with sediment, and the paleochannels represent periods of arroyo cutting. Geologists initially relied on the relation of these aggradational packages to cultural artifacts of known age in order to establish their ages. Radiocarbon dating played a major role where no cultural features could be associated with alluvial deposits. Now, geologists are using optically-stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating where no cultural features or organic material can be found. All of the above tools can be used to constrain the timing of past arroyo cycles in order to establish their relation to hydrological and environmental changes. Regional Correlations Such chronostratigraphic studies have identified at least one other arroyo cutting event that was synchronously manifested in many drainages of the Southwest. This pre-historic arroyo cutting occurred around 1200 AD. The fact that this event took place in the absence of intensive grazing and floodplain modification suggests that it was driven by climatic changes. Interestingly, the pre-historic arroyo cutting also coincides roughly with the great Puebloan abandonment–when seeming successful, growing Puebloan cultures suddenly disappeared from the southern Colorado Plateau. Was prehistoric arroyo cutting related to this major cultural transition? It certainly seems plausible, as archeological evidence suggests that these burgeoning cultures relied on floodwater farming. If arroyos rapidly cut into the floodplains they were farming, irrigation would have become very difficult. These two major arroyo cutting events bound a period of channel aggradation from around 1300-1880 AD. Valley-fills of this age have been correlated across the Southwest (Figure 4). Hack (1942) dubbed this alluvial fill the 'Naha' alluvium. It generally fills arroyos that were cut into an older alluvial fill known as the 'Tsegi' alluvium, which encompasses several aggradational sequences that occurred before 1200 AD. Ongoing research is focused on identifying the timing of these older arroyo cutting-and-filling cycles. Some studies have identified upwards of 10 alluvial fills that predate the "Naha' alluvium, though existing age control is limited. Hypothesis Testing If arroyo cutting events are climate-driven, what specific mechanism(s) are at play? Many have suggested that episodes of frequent, high-magnitude flooding were the causal mechanism. How can we test this hypothesis? One way would be to examine the flood record for a stream for which an arroyo cut-and-fill record is known. Because stream gages have existed for only a short period of time, geologists use paleoflood hydrology to characterize pre-instrumental floods. Evidence of floods can be depositional (e.g. flood deposits, driftwood) or erosional (e.g. truncated alluvial fans, scour lines). Such evidence acts as a proxy for flood stage, which, combined with detailed surveying, can be used to calculate the paleodischarge. Additionally, the same geochronological tools described above can be used to determine the age of the flood. These tools allow construction of the flood history of a stream. If the reconstructed flood history for a stream suggests that arroyo cutting events coincide with episodes of frequent, high-magnitude flooding, it would suggest that that these episodes are the primary drivers of prehistoric and historic arroyo cutting events. If not, then geologists must come up with alternative explanations for these regionally synchronous channel changes.

(HealthDay News) -- Few things are more frightening for young children and their parents than a true dental emergency.
The American Dental Association suggests how to handle common examples:
If your child's tooth is knocked out, place it back in the mouth without touching the root. Otherwise, keep it moist by placing it between your child's cheek and gum or in some milk. Call the dentist without delay.
If your child's tooth is cracked, rinse the mouth using warm water, and apply a cold compress to the face to minimize swelling.
For a bitten lip or tongue, carefully clean the wound.
If your child complains of a toothache, rinse the mouth with warm water and carefully floss to remove any lodged food. Never give a child aspirin.
If your child has an object lodged in the mouth, gently floss to remove it. However, do not use any sharp instrument.

There is also the possibility that Colin starts the game and does as well if not better and the 49ers light up the Saints in route to a big win. In this case Coach looks like a genius the comparisons of all the great QBs to shine after getting an opportunity will be made. With this Alex goes the way of Drew Bledsoe and finds himself a forgotten man.
Should Alex get the start in this game the only way he can erase the controversy is to play lights out and win this game, a poor performance would be Armageddon with those outside and some inside. Alex has played in all kinds of games and has the experience to handle the crowd and go toe to toe with Drew. A win by Alex will allow Colin to go back to his role and prepare to take over down the road and give the team confidence that should he be needed he can do the job.
No matter whom starts one thing for sure is the 49ers should be able to run the ball on what is a very porous defense. Both QBs will have no problem handing the ball off to Frank Gore and Kendall Hunter. The true key to this game is keeping Drew Brees on the sidelines as long as possible while putting touchdowns on the board.
Coach Harbaugh has done a masterful job of keeping the Saints in the dark as to who will start. Preparing for two totally different styles of Qbs will be more than enough work to keep the Saints busy and give the 49ers the best chance to win. With a win in this game it won't knock the Saints out of the playoffs but it puts them in a very big hole. Given the opportunity to keep a very dangerous team down whoever the QB is playing well and winning will keep Armageddon at bay.

You can't call yourself a hot rodder if you don't know who Mickey Thompson was, what he accomplished in his life, and what he meant to the racing and automotive world in general—if you aren't aware of specifics, Google him. Mickey was everywhere in racing—from the international glory of Indianapolis, to the relative obscurity of Bonneville and Baja. One of his only unfinished projects was the Challenger II Streamliner, also known as the Autolite Special since it was financed by Ford Motor Company. It was a land-speed race car with twin Ford SOHC engines (one of which was supercharged) and four-wheel drive.
The Challenger II was a high-tech follow up to Challenger I, which ran 406 mph in 1960 with four Pontiac engines (you can see that car at the Wally Parks NHRA Museum in Pomona, California). Challenger I broke on the return run and the salt was in too bad of a shape the next year to get the record, so Mickey tucked the car away. But in 1965, when the Summers Brothers went 409 mph for the record, it lit a fire in Mickey to go after them and he designed a new car—Challenger II.
The car made it to the salt in 1968 and made some promising test passes, but then the rains came and flooded the lakebed. Mickey planned to go back the next year, but that's when the automakers (including his main backer, Ford) pulled out of racing, leaving him with no financing to continue. So he put the car in a trailer, where it basically sat until 1988 when he got the bug again and got with his son Danny (an accomplished racer in his own right and president of the Mickey Thompson Entertainment Group) to make another run at the record.
In your Google search on Mickey, you'll learn that he and his wife Trudy were murdered in their driveway that same year. That obviously took the thrill out of it for Danny, and he closed the trailer back up and essentially forgot about the car. But in 2010, on the 50th anniversary of Challenger I's 406-mph pass, Danny pulled the car out of the trailer and has had a narrowly focused, single-minded obsession to get the car back to the salt, working on it nonstop in a small Huntington Beach, California, shop. He and a skeleton crew are modifying the car to today's safety standards and changing some things in an attempt to have the world's fastest, piston-powered, wheel-driven car. As his website (ThompsonLSR.com) points out, it probably would have been easier to start over from scratch, but that wasn't the point behind this project. We sat down with Danny to find out what that point is, and how it's coming so far.
What made you take your dad's project on?
DT] My dad came to me in 1988 and said, 'I want to run that car again, but I'm not going to drive it. Will you drive it? You work on it, and I'll find all the sponsorship and run all the front-end.' Of course, [I knew] he'd run everything else anyway, so I was pumped. Three weeks after we put the deal together, my dad got murdered, and I didn't have the heart to come back out and run it again. About 10 years ago, I started seriously thinking, 'I need to finish this.' My dad finished just about everything he did and was relatively successful at all of it, but he never finished this, and it was always a burning desire for him to come back. We were going to do it as a father-son deal, and that's what made it so cool. I want to finish his unfinished business, and in the process I get to go fast—it's a win-win deal. I can't wait. I've given up everything I have in the world to do this, and when they finally lower that canopy down and say it's time to go…it gives me goose bumps, I want to do it so bad. But mostly I can finish something that he didn't, and that's cool.
What kind of shape was the car in when you pulled it out of the trailer four years ago?
DT] It was in good shape, because he'd done a deal with somebody to buy it, and they took it all apart and repainted it and so forth. But they didn't pay for it, so it went back in the trailer. It never got run or anything.
What has been changed on the car since your dad originally built it?
DT] Everything. Engines, transmissions, the basic frame is the same, and the aerodynamics package is almost identical—except for the way we're bringing the air in. [My dad] brought air in through NACA ducts in the front and rear, which didn't work very well, so Tim Gibson has changed all that around, and then Terry Hegman has built some real nice little things, aerodynamic-wise, that shouldn't add any frontal area to the car but should work really well. The engine combination is certainly the biggest thing, from SOHC Fords to 500ci Hemis. And we run B&J Transmission three-speeds, where my dad ran B&M two-speed automatics. The [differentials] are the same, but the steering is probably the single hardest thing to capture. He had wagon wheel steering, where the whole [differential] turned like a wagon, and that's illegal at Bonneville now. We might have been able to push and get it grandfathered in—but I didn't like it anyway—so we changed all that. Gibson designed it, and it's phenomenal. We have five degrees of steering now, which is almost unheard of. And this is really cool, stuff my dad came up with in 1968—the way we turn it at the other end for an FIA meet, where you have to turn it around really fast [to make a backup run for an FIA record]. We have four air jacks: we jack the car straight up, and we have a Lazy Susan that goes right under the driver's butt; we let the air jacks up, spin it around, and line it back up, put the air jacks back down, pull the Lazy Susan out, and you're ready to go. It takes probably two minutes to turn the car around, which means a lot because you have to add 60 gallons of fuel, redo the parachutes, all that stuff. And instead of repacking the 'chutes (which will be wet from dragging in the salt), we built canisters so we can slide a brand-new one in place much quicker than repacking 'chutes.
Tell us about the engines.
DT] Jerry Darien laid them out and did the cylinder heads and top-end stuff, and Richard Catton at RC Performance did the bottom ends. Darien's a regular A/Fuel guy. He sent all of the Force girls through his school, and he's a good guy—I can go to him with stupid questions, especially on this drag-race [nitromethane] stuff. I haven't been in drag racing in 25 or 30 years, and it's changed so much. I think this thing has 42 fuel lines! There are four nozzles per cylinder, you got bypasses, and bypasses for bypasses…it's complicated, so he's going to go with us. But horsepower shouldn't be an issue— traction is always the issue, trying to make the power get to the ground.
Speaking of that, your dad's old company Mickey Thompson Wheels and Tires is involved in the project with the tires. What are they?
DT] Yeah, Mickey Thompson did the tires, and they're the smallest of the three they offer, the 24-inch-tall tire. That's what the car was designed around originally; before Mickey Thompson even made tires, it was designed around a 23.5-inch Goodyear. We just got through building four new wheels, and they're so pretty—ooh they're so nice! We're building 12 more because you don't have time to change tires at Bonneville. There are 30 fasteners in the wheels, so unbolting all of those 3⁄8-inch bolts to change tires, and rebalancing, there's just not enough time. I want enough wheels set up so if you smoke a couple tires, I'll have them ready to go in the corner. Tires are always a serious deal. It's your last link.

text: Savage Wanted To 'F*** The S*** Out of Rick Santorum' Print article Send a Tip by Ben Shapiro 29 Apr 2012 post a comment The White House's favorite bully, Dan Savage, is the author of the syndicated column "Savage Love." But he's also a massively offensive bully on the political scene. Google Rick Santorum's name, and you'll get a vile, disgusting definition, which we won't reprint here. That's because Savage, militant anti-religious author of the sex column "Savage Love," coined the definition and Google-bombed it in order to slander Santorum for Santorum's opposition to gay marriage. This campaign was so successful in slandering Santorum that Savage has now threatened to change the definition of Rick to something similarly disgusting. As if that weren't enough, Savage also appeared on RealTime with Bill Maher stating that he wanted to "f*** the s*** out of [Santorum]." More to come ...

Of the five shows that are being launched this quarter, non-fiction shows outweigh the soaps. Not surprising as reality shows have always been Sony's forte but it is fiction that the channel has been struggling with for the longest. Despite several new soaps launched in the last one year, including Krishnaben Khakrawala, Chajje Chajje Ka Pyar and Saas Bina Sasural, the channel hasn't been able to make a dent in the fiction space, which is the mainstay of any General Entertainment Channel (GEC). With Bade Acche.. Sony is hoping to change that. As Sneha Rajani, Senior EVP and Business Head, Sony, said at the launch, "Fiction is the foundation for any General Entertainment Channel and I am committed to work with finest creative minds to bring alive fictional characters. Bade Acche Laggte Hai.. produced by Balaji Telefilms is the first attempt in this direction and I am very confident that the character of Priya will bring a lot of women to the channel during primetime."
The channel has pulled out all stops in promoting Bade Acche Laggte Hai that has Ram, best remembered as Jai Walia of Kasamh Se... and Sakshi,who essayed the iconic Parvati in Kahaani Ghar Ghar Kii, playing out a mature love story. Its lavish launch at Agra against the backdrop of the historic monument Taj Mahal - this when the serial is based in Mumbai and has nothing to do with the symbol of love - was testimony to the channel's determination to deliver a refreshing serial. If it succeeds, the serial will be a path-breaker not only for the channel but also in the programming space. Currently, television is dominated by fresh young faces with established actors being relegated to character roles. Bade Acche.. will be the first serial in a long time to have a 30 plus heroine and a 40- year-old hero. The serial based on the premise of an arranged marriage, with the married couple falling in love with each other after tying the knot, mirrors Indian society or at least 90 per cent of it. Obviously, Sony is hoping that the majority of the women identify with the concept and flock to the serial.
Sakshi also finds her character Priya extremely relatable. A happy-go-lucky woman, Priya is content fulfilling the wishes of her siblings. "Priya is a beautiful person at heart and mind," says Sakshi, revealing that the role was offered to her within four months of Kahaani Ghar Ghar Kii shutting down. "I had been working for eight years and wanted to take a break, which is why I refused it then," says the actress. But Ekta, who had conceived the story keeping Ram and Sakshi in mind, refused to make it with any other actor.
Interestingly, the two actors who catapulted to fame with Ekta's shows have never worked together. Says Ram, who plays a ruthless enterpreneur, "This show is about two strangers getting to know each other after marriage and we share a different kind of chemistry." Promos of the show featuring the two are already on air and the channel is planning to market it aggressively in the coming days. A 360 degree campaign involving TV, radio and print with outdoor activity in 22 cities is underway. Closer to the launch there will be 'Below The Line' activity which is yet to be finalised. The promotions will continue even after the launch. Says Danish Khan, Vice-President and Marketing Head, Sony, "This is one property that has the power of sustenance as we are expecting a good number of women audience."
Since women form a large chunk of the TV audience, Sony undoubtedly is banking on the soap to take it to the top. While it was with KBC4 hosted by Amitabh Bachchan last year that the channel came back into the reckoning, Madhuri Dixit and Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa consolidated their position. Consequently, the channel's GRPs increased and is currently delivering 150 GRPs on an average. As NP Singh, COO, Multi-Screen Media Network which owns Sony, SAB, PIX and MAX, said, "Sony had a wonderful last year. With a new leadership and a robust roll out for both fiction and non-fiction slated right across the year, 2011 promises to be an exciting year as well."
Like they say, on paper, the channel has a promising line-up. But the question is ,will it deliver?

My reflections on filming and watching The Out List (which airs tomorrow night on HBO) in the wake of DOMA, GENDA, VRA and many more battles won and lost.
I posted this on FB and thought I'd share publicly:
The burden of living in a "time on two crosses" (Bayard Rustin)…Some of us are dealing with bittersweet complexities today as trans and queer people of color, whom applaud the monumental victory of DOMA being struck down yet go home to communities of color who must continue to deal with the blatant racism of our voting process, upheld by the SCOTUS ruling against the Voting Rights Act.
In struggle + solidarity, always,
I was the sole woman, trans person, and individual of color during this panel discussion on MSNBC/Google+ about DOMA, PROP 8 and marriage equality. I pointed this out on air because it needs to be said.
Yes, Chris Hayes, Zach Wahls, Carter Gibson and Eddie Outlaw were wonderful. Yet the lack of diversity in media is very much obvious, even in these discussions about equality and community (it was called, "Changing Your Community").
We need to ensure that the voices are representative of our communities.

With the draft just around the corner and the Buffalo Bills in desperate need of a Quarterback and a Wide Receiver, there is a lot of speculation as to who the Bills will draft as well as what they are going to do with their pick. Are they going to trade back or take a chance on a player by taking one earlier than projected?
With a lot still up in the air, we do know one thing. We know who will be attending the Draft later this month. Will the Bills draft someone that is in attendance? Two Quarterbacks that Buffalo has worked out privately will be in attendance, E.J. Manuel and Geno Smith. The more likely of the two would be Geno Smith at this point.
Here is a complete list of who will be at the draft:
- Barkevious Mingo, Defensive End/Outside Linebacker, LSU
- Bjoern Werner, Defensive End, Florida State
- Chance Warmack, Guard, Alabama
- Cordarrelle Patterson, Wide Receiver, Tennessee
- Dee Milliner, Cornerback, Alabama
- DJ Fluker, Offensive Tackle, Alabama
- EJ Manuel, Quarterback, Florida State
- Eric Fisher, Offensive Tackle, Central Michigan
- Ezekial Ansah, Defensive End, BYU
- Geno Smith, Quarterback, West Virginia
- Jonathan Cooper, Guard, North Carolina
- Kenny Vaccaro, Safety, Texas
- Lane Johnson, Offensive Tackle, Oklahoma
- Luke Joeckel, Offensive Tackle, Texas A&M
- Margus Hunt, Defensive End, SMU
- Menelik Watson, Offensive Tackle, Florida State
- Sharrif Floyd, Defensive Tackle, Florida
- Tavon Austin, Wide Receiver, West Virginia
- Xavier Rhodes, Cornerback, Florida State

This school was horrible. One of the teacher's kept screaming in class and could be heard from other classrooms. My daughter was bullied, a neighbor's daughter was cut by students with razorblades, and staff did not punish the girls that did it. BEWARE! Not good for white students.
Horrible my son got bullied constantly and nothing was done about it. I called the police and since my son wasn't sent to the hospital in critical condition there wasn't much they could do about it. And all South point did was protect the bully! I asked and begged to meet with the stupid dumb bully and his dumb ignorant parents me and my husband wanted that so bad and they wouldn't do it. They wouldn't even release the bullies name protected him the whole time! My son did not advance at that school what so ever! Stay away from this school please
My student's school is perfect for her. She is learning and South Pointe is doing a great job teaching and making changes to create a positive team. My daughter is making a lot of progress in her learning and her behavior. I am thankful for everything the teachers and staff do. Thanks Griffins!
Good school. The children are surprisingly respectful. I was worried about enrolling my son. in this school but now I'm glad I did.
My daughter attends the 7th grade. Her grades have improved draumatically (A+ student) and the instructors are ready and willing to assist students and parents with any problems, questions etc. The programs they have after school are excellent. I never thought I would ever hear my daughter say (I love School), but she did and continues to do so.
1st Parent: At first it was a scary thought to move my child schools after all she had been in her previous school for 7 years, but I decided any change is better than leaving her where she was. (Former school Cesar Chavez Elementary School) Moving my daughter schools was one of the best things I have done for her education! I really don t know where to begin. 2nd The Students: are friendly, have good manners, and not judgmental as you know there is all ways at least one, but for the most they are caring and thoughtful of others. 3rd The Teachers: are more on top of their students than I have seen in a long time, I really like the fact they let other students help the ones that just didn t quite get it. The stay after school to tutor the kids pretty much every day and give them times they can come in and get caught up or need help. Let s face it lots of students out their need the extra help coming from Schools that had failing scores for years with lots of teacher that just didn t want to take the time to help them. 4th Principal: A big factor to me was is she available when she is needed? Every time I have had an issue no mater how small or large she was their to help and get it taken care of fairly. She has a great attitude about teaching the kids respect, it is not just taught in class. It HAS to be used by the students at all times. Over all I have not seen a more caring and attentive principal in the 20 years I have has children in schools.
I think this school is the best! unlike gilbert school district this school cares about the kids not the money!. Amen to this school! please keep up the excellent work! your making a difference! your the best!
Procoppio is the most awesome principle I've ever heard about. He is beyond helpful, caring, and everything else above. If I could only choose my family members he would be the first to pick. We think he's the best.

It's the summer tour season, when there are multiple live music concerts worth seeing every week, sometimes on the same day. Money, as well as the fact that matter cannot occupy two spaces at the same time, may prevent fans from seeing every act they'd like. But here's a short list for some good entertainment.
Black Francis: Still best known for fronting one of the seminal college rock bands, The Pixies, Black Francis has continued pumping out albums first with The Catholics and on his solo career. His latest, Abbabubba, shows he still brings the jagged riffs and singing / screeching skills he's known for. He's at Spaceland Ballroom on May 15. Information: 203-288-6400 or www.manicproductions.org.
Brad Paisley: Hartford's Comcast Theatre is always a big summer stop for country acts, and Brad Paisley is one of the top performers to come around every year. His upbeat and infections songs will fill the amphitheater May 18. Paisley's latest, "Wheelhouse," just premiered at number 2 on the Billboard Top 200. No word on whether the concert will feature an appearance by LL Cool J for the ridiculous track "Accidental Racist" (probably not). Information: www.livenation.com
Hot Jam 2013: One of two major annual concerts put on by hip hop station 93.7, the summertime Hot Jam always brings some of the biggest acts de jour to the area. This year has Kendrick Lamar headlining, a return appearance by J. Cole (who was on last year's bill), plus Ace Hood, Kat Dahlia, and many more. This year's concert moves indoors to the XL Center on May 31. Information: 860-249-6333 or www.xlcenter.com.
Ariel Pink: There are two distinct camps when it comes to Ariel Pink. Either you believe the artist is part of the eclectic wave that broke down musical concepts and ushered in a new generation of haunting lo-fi and psych-sampling music, or you think it's a dude acting weird and pushing buttons in front of kids wearing American Apparel scarves and sweaters in the summer. Either way, Ariel Pink is at the Pearl Street Clubroom on June 8. Information: www.iheg.com.
The Eagles: Glenn Frey, Don Henley, Joe Walsh, and Timothy Schmit are coming to Mohegan Sun on their "History Of The Eagles" Tour. A documentary seems like a weird thing to tour in support of, even if it was at Sundance. But whatever. It's the Eagles, they can do what they want. The Uncasville concert on July 18 is only one of 11 announced tour dates for the band. Information: 860-862-7163 or www.mohegansun.com.
AmericanaramA Festival: Bob Dylan, Wilco, and My Morning Jacket have all performed in the Connecticut area at some point over the last year. However this one tour brings together all three titans of folk, roots, and, well, rock. Ryan Bingham also plays the new festival when it comes to the Ball Park at Harbor Yard in Bridgeport on July 19. This is the baseball venue's first live music in a long time, and who wouldn't want to see a concert outside at a ball park? Information: 203-210-2583 or www.bridgeportbluefish.com
Gathering of the Vibes: The biggest attractions at Vibes are always the remaining Grateful Dead side projects, this year including Phil Lesh, John Medeski, and Joe Russo. Of course it's not all hemp and hacky sacks, as this year features Black Crowes, Tedeschi Trucks Band, The Roots, and a DJ set by James Murphy of LCD Sound System. All kinds of weekend and camping passes are still available for the festival July 25-28 at Bridgeport's Seaside Park. Information: www.gatheringofthevibes.com.
Lil' Wayne: After a serious health scare last month launched rumors of the rapper on his death bed, Lil Wayne seems to have made a recovery. Weezy attributes the scare, as well as his frequent seizures, to epilepsy. He hits the road on tour again in July and comes to Hartford's Comcast Theatre July 31. Hopefully this time around his backup dancers stay out of trouble if they decide to go to P.F. Chang's. Information: www.livenation.com.
Beyonce: As one-half of the most powerful music couple in the world, there is no question that Beyonce's world tour will be one of the biggest, intricately choreographed concerts of the season. She did perform at the last Super Bowl, after all. Conspiracy theorists will want to keep an eye out for subtle flashes of Illuminati symbols when Beyonce performs at Mohegan Sun on Aug. 2. Information: 860-862-7163 or www.mohegansun.com
John Mayer: It's been a rough couple of years for John Mayer. Just before last year's the release of "Born And Raised," The Fairfield native had serious vocal issues that required surgery and regular Botox injections. Making a full recovery, Mayer is finally touring in support of his 2012 album. His Aug. 16 concert at the Comcast Theatre in Hartford also features American Idol winner Phillip Phillips opening.

Sell It While It's Hot!
Accessories and add-ons boost profits and retain customers
Integrators need to look at security systems the way their daughters look at their Barbie dolls. Having a Barbie is nice but having all of Barbie's stuff (and Ken's, too) is the icing on the cake.
No matter the season, there always are accessories and add-ons that are hot sellers. Just as Barbie cannot live without her Malibu beach house or convertible, integrators should be able to entice customers with accessories and add-ons that build business and keep the client content and up-to-date with current convenience and technologies.
Focus on enhanced business value
"Dealers have to show they are capable of taking management of security outside and beyond the home or small business," said John M. Brady, president, TRG Associates, Old Saybrook, Conn. "You've got to be able to offer the 'whiz-bang' options on a plug-and-play basis, even if the customer does not buy them on the first sales call."
"Offering an alarm/contact one door is not a good security program," he added. Rather, a dealer has to offer mobile software applications to customers old and new. While the younger generation is more technology savvy, all customers are aware of the many threats to their safety-threats beyond burglary.
"The big attraction is interactive services. That's where we are getting good play. The time is here, the technology is here and the customers are ready," said Bill Graham, vice president of Sales and Marketing, Guardian Protection Services, Warrendale, Pa. He noted that members of Gen X and Gen Y not only want the newer technologies, but they expect it to be in their homes.
He said if security companies do not migrate to upgraded, accessorized systems they soon will be out of business.
"Security dealers need to offer a broader lifestyle package," agreed Mark Fell, director of Sales, Ocenture, Jacksonville, Fla. "Lifestyle security needs to encompass new consumer behavior and activities." He confirmed there are 1.2 billion people who have Web-enabled devices ranging from iPads to smartphones. But last year there were 71 million new virus signatures and over one million new spyware signatures unleashed upon the market.
Identity protection a great add-on
"Their main target is identity theft," said Fell. He added that many traditional alarm companies are missing the opportunity. There are 34 million users of identity theft protection services, spending $3 billion a year and growing at a 20 percent rate. His answer is what the company terms an 'ASAP' strategy: Acquire more customers; Sell more to each customer; Attrition reduction; and sustain Pricing.
Brady concurred there is a huge potential market for security integrators. "On the whole, we have low penetration as an industry," he said. "A lot of people don't even have home security."
Many forward-thinking companies are delving into other areas of the accessory market. Guardian is getting ready to roll out interactive cameras and thermostat controls. Lighting control will be the third step in their plans. Lighting, Graham explained, is more difficult since an electrician must be involved for offerings beyond lamp modules. He said Guardian is working on sales models that will permit the customer to buy a system that Guardian programs or one in which they subcontract the work to an electrical contractor if necessary.
Whichever direction the business goes, "the days of just installing a standard alarm system are gone," Graham confirmed.
Fire detection in the interactive fold
"For residential customers, text message control of systems and fire detection is a hot seller right now," said Jonathan Frase, president, Frase Protection, Memphis, Tenn. "Homeowners want to feel connected to their homes while away," he pointed out, adding that no matter where one lives or travels, people realize that fire is a real threat.
Frase sells service plans that take effect when the warranty expires. "Our customers need to budget for system maintenance and service and they are receptive to deferring the expense until the warranty period ends," he said.

The main problem with this model is rust. The car requres very thorough examination. The rust occurs in body panels and structurally. Front suspension spring perches can shear off. Be very wary indeed of any W210 that has just been painted.

Junior Mary Kate Hardy finished 29th in 1-Meter Diving on Thursday at NCAA Diving Zones.
March 13, 2014
1-Meter Results | NCAA Diving Zones Preview
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — Four members of the Colorado State diving team opened up NCAA Diving Zones on Thursday with 1-Meter Springboards.
Junior Mary Kate Hardy had the Rams' strongest score of the day, finishing 29th, with 243.24 points. After just missing the qualifying score for Zones during her first two collegiate seasons, the team-high score was hard-fought recognition for her work this season.
"I thought she did well," head diving coach Kevin Witt said. "She definitely was the most consistent, and that is key to a meet like this. There are a lot of really good divers here, and even really good dives are scored more difficultly."
Melissa Bollig (35th, 230.70), Ariana Milone (47th, 216.25) and Paige Greely (50th, 202.95) each had solid starts to the day, but small mistakes cost each athlete spots in the finals.
"I think five out of six of their dives were pretty good and consistent, but each one of them had one dive in their round that was just a miss," Witt said. "One missed dive cost each of them quite a few spots."
The Rams will continue their efforts competition Friday, with Bollig, Greely and Milone will competing on the 3-Meter Springobards. Fans can follow live results here.
"3-Meter is stronger for a couple of our girls," Witt said. "How they perform tomorrow is going to come down to all the same stuff as today. It's a long meet, and it's hard to stay warm and lose or get into any kind of rhythm. Hopefully they can come back strong. They just have to be consistent and avoid those mistakes that can drop them so many spots."
CSU's four representatives at NCAA Diving Zones is the most by the Rams in more than a decade, and tied for the second-most in the Mountain West.

Rob Delaney may not yet have the name recognition of comedians like Louis C. K., Aziz Ansari or Jim Gaffigan. But with the help of his large and loyal Internet following, he is hoping he can take a page from his accomplished industry colleagues, and start creating material for and selling it directly online.
On Sept. 4, Mr. Delaney will release an original standup comedy special, "Live at the Bowery Ballroom," which will be available at his Web site, robdelaney.com, and sold as a $5 download.
It's an online experiment that's previously been tried by performers like Louis C. K., Mr. Ansari and Mr. Gaffigan after they had been prominent for several years and produced traditional standup specials that were shown on TV and sold on home video.
For Mr. Delaney, who has been a standup comedian for roughly a decade but only recently built himself an army of 555,000 Twitter followers and counting, the project is "Phase 2 of the test," he said in a recent telephone interview.
Phase 1, he said, was parlaying his online success into his current standup tour, which will take him to San Francisco, Austin, Dallas and San Diego prior to several sold-out dates in London.
Now, Mr. Delaney said, "I'm going to try to step up a level and see if that works out. All signs point towards this being a good decision, and we will soon find out if it is. There's no way to fail. What's bad? I have to go do more standup to make more money? Great. There's nothing I'd rather do." Read more…
