Learning to suck cock is just like learning to ride a bike...for the most part. You either get it or you don\'t. One cutie who learned her dick licking lessons very well is Nicole Ray. You\'ve probably never seen her face before, but after this blowjob scene, her 18-year-old face will be burned into your brain so that she\'s all you see when you close your eyes and start to jerk your cock tonight. Nicole doesn\'t just suck cock, she inhales it. She keeps her mouth moving a mile a minute while she looks up at you with those big, brown eyes. You can tell she\'s just waiting for you to give her a sweet load of milk and when the little minx tells you, \\'I want your cum\\', you finally give her the monster load she deserves.
How did we find such a cute cock-sucker?

Public road law in Oregon was first created by the Territorial Act of 1848 and has gone through many changes over the years. The most significant change occurred in the late 1930's, when the Work Project Administrator, under the supervision of the County Engineer, prepared an Official Map of the Roads of Marion County showing and numbering all Market Roads and County Roads in Marion County. On March 22, 1939, Circuit Court Judge J. C. Siegmund and the County Commissioners decreed, "Any road not designated on said map as a County or Market Road shall not be considered a County Road until accepted or re-established by order of this Court and the County Engineer hereby is directed to perform or have performed no work on any road which is not designated on said map as a County Road." This decree established the road system designations being used today. County Roads can come about by dedication, grant, eminent domain, statutory proceedings, etc. Oregon Revised Statutes detail the requirements for establishing a County Road under current law.
The Marion County Public Works Department uses the following definitions:
Right-of-Way - refers to a strip of land given to the public for specific uses including roadways, bridge structures, public utilities, etc. Right-of-ways are available for use by the public at large and are administered by the jurisdiction (City, State or County) in which they lie. The most common County right-of-way is an easement for roadway purposes granted to the County by a private landowner.
County Road - is a public right-of-way that has been formally accepted by the County Commissioners as a County Road. Marion County Public Works Department maintains all County Roads, but generally is prohibited from spending road funds on any road that is not an officially designated County Road.Easement - see Private Road
Local Access Road - also referred to as a Non-County Road by the Marion County Public Works Department, is any roadway constructed in a public right-of-way that has not been accepted by the Marion County Commissioners as a County Road. This includes privately constructed roads, abandoned roads, etc. Maintenance of these roads is the responsibility of the local property owners.Non-County Road (NCR) - see Local Access Road
Private Road - any road constructed on private property or in a private easement. Maintenance of these roads is the responsibility of the owner of the property where it is located.
For information on specific roads contact the Marion County Department of Public Works, 5155 Silverton Road NE, Salem, Oregon, 97305 or call 503-588-5036. Two important questions to ask are: A. "What is the legal status of the property where the road is located?" (The most common are: 1. Privately owned with an easement to the public; 2. Dedicated to the public, as in a subdivision; and 3. Privately owned with a private easement.); and B.Who has responsibility to maintain the physical structure of the road?" (A government agency, in the case of a County Road, City Street, or State Highway; the owner in the case of a Private Road; the users in the case of a Local Access or Non-County Road; or no one in the case of unopened Right-of-Way.)

Very good recipe. Cake is moist and rich. One thing the recipe does not mention which novice bakers, like myself, may not realize is to grease the pan. Other than that, delicious!
I followed the recipe exactly and the cake was a dissapointment. I will try again, but leave out the chocolate chips in the batter. I'll make more topping for the middle of the cake and the top.

This was absolutely amazing. Last week my huge Sams Club sized Sour cream expired. I didn't want to throw it out so I looked up some recipes. I added an extra scoop of sour cream trying to reduce the amount I had left. I also added in a pinch of cinnamon and pumpkin pie because I read it was kinda bland.
So the cake was very moist. The chocolate chips went to the bottom so I flipped the piece of cake so the melted chips were like frosting but on the inside.
Will be making it many times!!
This cake was very moist and tasty. I prepared mine in the 8x8 inch pan and had to increase the cooking time as the middle of the cake was not completely cooked after 45 minutes. I also made extra topping which gave the cake a little extra crunch. Will make this again.
This was really good as cupcakes for my kids. I misread and though it would be a chocolate batter with chocolate chips so when I got all of my ingredients out I realized it wasn't. I didn't want to look for another recipe so I added 1/2 cup cocoa powder and about another 1/3 cup of sour cream. Mine turned out nice and light and chocolatley and not crumbly like alot of cakes. I did not do the topper on here either. Since it was cupcakes I made a cream cheese icing. Was sooooo yummy with the icing.
My family thoroughly enjoyed this cake. Very moist and easy to put together. I made a double recipe and used my large loaf pans.
I haven't tasted this cake yet, but wanted to advise that this recipe should not be baked in a 8x8 pan. It's far too small and the middle of my cake is nearly raw and the edges super crisp after baking for 65 minutes. Next time I will try a 9x9.
I followed the recipe exactly and it was AMAZING! I made it in the 8x8 pan. So yummy and moist!

It's a fall Saturday afternoon on the PSU campus, and a Big Ten rival is in town...in Central PA, there's NOWHERE else to be! Nittany Lions Football at Beaver Stadium...there's nothing like it. Like all prints in photographer Rob Arra's Everlasting Images series, this one features a razor-sharp view of every detail as the home defense looks to stop a Wisconsin Badgers drive, and as you pan across the image you feel like you are actually there. You can read the scoreboards, see the players on the sideline and on the field, see the cheerleaders, the marching band, and the 100,000+ mass of humanity that has gathered for another big game! From the decisive 18-6 victory on September 23, 2001, one of the first games at the newly expanded Beaver Stadium. If you've been to a Penn State home game, or even if you're an armchair fan, you'll love this piece - just looking at it makes you feel like you're there on gameday. Worthy of a nice frame and a central location on your sports wall-of-fame! Note: this poster is now out-of-print; limited quantity remains in our warehouse.

I think chili is one of those things in which we all expect something slightly different. I think that this is a really good recipe, or at least the the base to a really great chili. I have made it at least 3 times now. I made it in a slow cooker/crockpot for the first time yesterday....came out thinner than in my soup pot, so keep that in mind(nonetheless, I thought it was my best tasting batch yet). I like a little more beans so I bought a bigger can of pinto beans. I also put a small can of diced tomatoes for chili in the pot(my husband doesn't like chunks of tomatoes). If I have any tomato products that I want to clean out of my fridge(ex. salsa, chili sauce, etc.), I throw those in too. I also use 3 tablespoons of brown sugar instead of the white. And I am usually doubling the spices(except for the chili powder and I haven't tried cayenne pepper yet). I really don't think you can go wrong with this. I get compliments everytime. Since I am new to making chili, I keep referring to this one to make sure I get at least the basics in. Try it. Taste it. And if you need to...modify to your taste. That's what I do. Then I usually put it on top of some macaroni noodles and top that with sharp cheddar, chopped onion, and Fritos....YUM!!!
This was a very bland recipe. It wasn't bad, but nothing too exciting either. I suppose its a decent base, however if there is a next time I'm planning on REALLY playing with spices

This Chili was very hearty and tasty. The only change I made was to use the canned tomatoes in their own juices in lieu of the tomato juice. I believe this helped with this chili turning out more hearty rather than liquidly. Will definitely make again!
I've been searching for a chili recipe that would catch my eye for a long time now. I saw this one and what caught my eye was the # of reviews, so I printed it up and tried it out. I got rave reviews on my chili yesterday, so much so that my husband brought some to his mom to try; she's Italian and she even liked it! I made a few changes as well - I replaced the tomato juice with 2 cans of plum tomatoes that I diced myself, I used dry kidney and pinto beans and soaked them in water the night before. I bought a can of chipotle peppers in tomato sauce and added two of the peppers from the can. I slow cooked overnight for 10 hours - the smell was divine, the taste - out of this world! The chipotle peppers gave the chili a slight smokey taste and an extra zing that was well recieved. This is definitely MY new chili recipe and will be going into our annual family cookbook!
Decided to try "homemade" chili and glad I choose this recipe.... Absolutely delicious! Didn't have regular chili powder, so I subbed New Mexico red chili powder - don't know if it made a difference, but it turned out fabulous. Thanks George!!!
I have entered this in my church chili cookoff, and finally with this I won!!! I added chopped garlic. i also used bloodymary mix instead of tomatojuice, and used only half of what was called for with that. Really tastey, not too hot, if you want hot add some more cayenne pepper.
Chili is a hard thing to rate/make/read suggestions and comments about. Its just one of those things that can be made SOOO different and be SOO good many different ways!! I thought this chili was good, and especially good for a base chili and then you modify to make it suit your tastes. I followed others suggestions and cut out the tomato juice all together and used 2 cans tomato sauce and 2 cans of diced tomatoes. Next time I will only use 1 can tomato sauce. It seemed too thick but once it started heating up it was a little more liquidy than I liked. It was good though. My boyfriend rated it a 3.5. Me a 4 and our friend who was over a 5! So... anyways all in all I thought this was good especially for a beginner Chili Maker! Oh, I also forgot to mention I browned my meat beforehand w/garlic cloves and onion and then put everything in the crock pot!
This chili was delicious! I made it in my Crockpot. I don't like green peppers, so I omitted them. I also used two cans of stewed tomatoes instead of tomato juice. Grocery didn't have pinto beans so I doubled the amount of kidney beans. Here is a note: follow the directions and do not let the chili cook for more than ten hours in the pot! Otherwise, the meat will become very mushy (mine had the consistency of corned beef hash). Still, I'll definitely make this recipe again. Next time, I think I'll add some garlic. Thanks for such a great recipe!

What's for dinner? SPECIAL TURKEY DAY EDITION! #117 [old]
I know, I know. At this point, while you are slaving away in your respective kitchens for tomorrow, this is probably the last thing you want to talk about.
Or maybe you can't wait to share the bounty?
We've been invited to spend Thanksgiving with Costa Rican friends, so I am hoping for some non-traditional stuff. Oh, there will be turkey (otherwise I'd be rather disappointed), but apart from that -- pork roast, and lots and lots of huge question marks! Mmmmmm question marks....
I'm bringing over a Brussels sprouts gratin sorta based on my potato gratin, my man is making chocolate pie. Guess I'm the bad cop in this scenario.
And yinzes?
Mmmm. I envy your Costa Rican Thanksgiving. I've been told that the folks coming to the dinner tomorrow are expecting pretty traditional fare. I just finished making a walnut tart for dessert (fast becoming my go-to dessert, but seems especially appropriate for this autumn holiday). I also prepped the sausages in puff pastry, to be baked tomorrow for an appetizer, along with phyllo triangles stuffed with pumpkin and topped with toasted hazelnuts. I'm planning a fig, ginger, and mustard dip for the sausage appetizer. At the last minute I'll be making green beans with shallots and pancetta, and Brussels sprouts with lemon and almonds. Mr. NS is making potatoes and helping with the turkey. Can't wait to hear what everyone else is doing!
re: L.Nightshade
Nightshade, you absolutely MUST post the recipe for the fig, ginger, and mustard dip - THREE of my favorites all in one dip? ::::Saying "lawsy mercy" as I'm fanning myself::::
re: LindaWhit
It's just a bit of a cheating thing... no fresh figs around...
So I mixed fig jam, a plop of whole grain mustard, some finely grated ginger, and a shot of balsamic vinegar. Heated it briefly for the flavors to blend, and cooled. It worked nicely with the sausage in pastry
re: L.Nightshade
THIS is brilliant. I have fig jam as well, sounds like a great appetizer - thanks!
re: L.Nightshade
+1 on the dip and please-please post a recipe or a link to that walnut tart!
re: herby
Walnut Tart Recipe, as requested:
This recipe was given to me by a woman who learned it in a class she took from Madeleine Kamman. It's very easy, and it is always a big hit.
The glaze makes for an icing type topping, that people seem to like. I made it once with a very thin version of the glaze, just enough to stick the pastry leaves on. I think I like it that way better. Photo of thinly glazed tart is in this link:
The photo below is the one I made yesterday with the glaze as called for. It suffered a bit in transporting across town.
1 cup flour
½ t salt
6 T butter
3 T cold water
Mix flour, salt, butter in FP for 6 seconds or until butter is crumbly. While machine running add 3 T cold water. Process until held together in ball. Flatten into small round, chill for at least 30 minutes.
1 stick sweet butter
1 1/3 c walnuts
¾ c sugar
2 large eggs
1/3 t salt
3 T strong coffee (or scant t instant espresso in 3 T water
)Completely cream butter. Add walnuts, sugar, eggs, salt, and coffee. Process until completely smooth
1 cup conf sugar
1 t vanilla
2 T strong coffee or espresso as above
Mix conf sugar, vanilla, coffee (adding more sugar as necessary for thick glaze).
Walnut halves or
Pastry leaves to garnish
Roll pastry to fit tart tin with removable bottom, making sides a bit thicker than bottom. Cut off excess by rolling pin over top. Chill. Prick bottom with fork.
Fill tart with walnut mixture. Bake at 375 for 25 – 30 minutes. Turn for even browning. Puncture bubbles if needed. Cool completely before glazing.
Garnish with walnuts and/or pastry leaves.
re: L.Nightshade
Beautiful! A work of art.
re: karykat
Why, thank you karykat!
re: L.Nightshade
Agreed! Beautiful :)
re: ChristinaMason
Thanks Christina!
Traditional fare, mostly here as well. We have been brining 2 turkeys since yesterday, and they will be roasted. Mashed potatoes and gravy, dressing, broccoli casserole, sweet potatoes, scalloped oysters, my husband's home made bead, homemade cranberry sauce, and my sister-in-law, who is from Macedonia is bringing a few of her homemade dishes as well, cabbage rolls, baked beans, and baklava. I also made crumb topped apple pies and a pumpkin cheesecake for desserts.
Tonight was linguafood's heavenly steamed tofu with spicy oyster-sesame sauce and scallions, and a chopped soba noodle salad with green bell pepper, carrots, lettuce, jalapeno, shredded red cabbage, roasted peanuts, scallions, and peanut dressing. A nice, fresh contrast of textures and flavors---and very quick, too. Tomorrow (really today!) is the big cooking day!
re: ChristinaMason
Whatcha think of the tofu? Did it please your.... palettes? bwaahahahaahaha.
re: linguafood
Giggle. It was great. We dug it, despite my initial skepticism (I trust you lingua, I trust you).
Seriously? You all cooked last night? It was all I could do to stop for Chines take-out before I left the city and headed North. Which, by the way, is my newly imposed tradition for the night before Tday. We are anticipating an entire long weekend of cooking, so last night I had no interest.
Today I'll bring the gravy to my folks, along with whole wheat rolls, an apple pie and a Meyer lemon tart. A bottle of wine or two and maybe some Mt. Tam will round out our contribution.
Tomorrow is another story, not my idea, but I will be a faithful prep cook. A 13 lb. turkey will dry brine overnight, and be roasted for our three day, food-eating extravaganza. Some rosemary focaccia is being turned into stuffing, sweet potatoes AND mashed potatoes will be on offer (have I mentioned there are only two of us?) and green beans or brussel sprouts will keep us regular. Thank goodness the gravy is already made -used legs, wings and backs this year, came out pretty good!
A pumpkin pie has been promised and I have plenty of fresh cream and eggnog. I think a sparkling wine will be popped somewhere along the way. Oh, and the pigs in a blanket I was going to trek to the East Bay will likely stay home today and sustain us tomorrow while we watch movies, listen to carols and perhaps, go through some boxes of holiday decorations.
Hair will be pulled back, the fireplace will be lit and thank goodness the boy likes me in my soft pants.
Happy Thanksgiving All!
Gobble, gobble.
re: rabaja
"Hair will be pulled back, the fireplace will be lit and thank goodness the boy likes me in my soft pants."
Isn't that the BEST, rabaja? My beau also doesn't mind when I wear my "comfy clothes". Gotta love him. :-)
re: rabaja
Mt. Tam is so lovely.
re: twodales
It really is. Cowgirl Creamery rocks. Too bad that cheese is a little on the $$ side for my budget.
re: twodales
Ditto on that--love the Cowgirl cheeses, but as Christina notes, they cost a small fortune--even more down here.
re: nomadchowwoman
Yes, I only pony-up for it occasionally. In this case it was a gift from a fridge clean-out at work. Super score! Sharing it with others helps me to enjoy it even more, it being on the rich side and all.
LOL! on the "Mmmm....question marks..." linguafood! :-)
Well, at my place, the party's over and the family has been fed and sent on their way about an hour ago with care packages of roast turkey, gravy, mashed potatoes, maple butternut squash, glazed carrots, green beans with almonds, and cranberry-orange relish (I didn't make the roasted Brussels sprouts as I just didn't have time!). And PIE. Apple and Pumpkin PIE. *Really* good PIE. Per my BIL: "That was DAMN fine pie!" (I love my granite countertops to roll out the pie crust dough!)
Sister got to play interior decorator as I had hoped she would, with pictures as yet unhung. Some suggestions are spot on, some will be taken under advisement, and some were dismissed out of hand. But she had more hits than misses. BIL got a chance to chat with me and Mom and relaxed to ward off an impending cluster headache, which I think went away. And after dinner, he was the Dishwasher Extraordinaire since his SIL has a wrapped forefinger she can't fit in a rubber glove to keep dry due to the Thanksgiving Knife Incident of 2011.
What is the Thanksgiving Knife Incident of 2011, you ask? Well, it is the first injury of the holiday season...I was chopping herbs for the birdy's butter rub early this morning and I chopped down on half of my left forefinger. OWWW! Bled like a stuck pig (but we weren't *having* pork!) but like any professional chef would do, I managed to bandage it well enough to get the bird in the oven. Showered with a Ziploc bag rubberbanded around my wrist. And I called in for reinforcements...Mom showed up early to help prep veggies. And boy, am I glad I called her!
When I went to take off the jury-rigged bandage to re-bandage it, it had stuck to the fingernail. I ended up sitting on my desk chair in the bathroom to try and soak it off in barely lukewarm water...until I broke into a cold sweat and had to ask her to MOVE FAST so I could get to my bed and lie down with my head hanging over the edge. Finally recovered enough to get the old Band-aids off and a new cotton bandage on with lots of Neosporin on the nail bed and then wrapped with a paper towel that is masking-taped to my finger. :-) A huge *thank you* to my Mom!
Close call, but THERE'S NO FAINTING ON THANKSGIVING!!! I feel so Top Chef-like. :-)
And do you know how hard it is to type without a forefinger when you're a fast touch typist? Gah. This nail is a goner, and it's going to be painful for awhile. Not the first time I've sliced into it and won't be the last, I'm sure. But this is most definitely the WORST I've ever done...half of it is gone. :-(
Logan the Big Black Dog got to schnuffle in all corners of a new house, got tossed some turkey bits during the humans' dinner, and chose to remove one of the "inside-the-birdie" nummies from his food bowl that Auntie Linda had cooked *especially* for him and drop it on the tan carpeting vs. the hardwood floor his bowl was sitting on. :-/ Dumb but lovable dog.
All in all, a great day. Except for the Thanksgiving Knife Incident of 2011. ;-)
re: LindaWhit
I'm feeling a little light headed with you knife injury description. Sounds like a great night otherwise.
re: LindaWhit
Yikes, LW, that is some oweee you did to yourself! You came through like a trooper!
re: LindaWhit
A little blood makes every family holiday better :-)
re: LindaWhit
oh no LW! sorry to hear that! sounds painful, but kudos to you for soldiering on, unlike that TC chic last year that went to the hospital mid-episode! you're made of heartier stuff!
your table looks wonderful, by the way....
have the beau kiss that finger for you - make it aaallll better.
re: LindaWhit
Your dinner sounds lovely, but your injury sounds somewhat harrowing. But don't call it the Thanksgiving Knife Incident of 2011! That suggests you have to distinguish it from the one in 2012, or future incidents. Let this be the last!
re: LindaWhit
Ow! Glad to hear you survived, and dinner looks wonderful.
re: LindaWhit
Beautiful spread--sorry about the bloodletting, but it looks like it was worth it. :)

The Oregon Department of Human Services (DHS) Child Welfare Program announced today that three counties are beginning the statewide rollout of a new child protection system designed to keep more children safely at home, rather than enter state foster care.
The system is called Differential Response and implementation has started in Lane, Lake and Klamath counties.
"Differential Response (DR) is an evolution of Oregon Child Welfare System that will provide for more than one path for intervention with families where child safety is at issue, usually because of neglect or threat of harm," said DHS Child Welfare Director Lois Ann Day. "Just as every family is unique, our approach will be flexible enough to serve each family's needs - some through a Traditional Response, and others though an Alternative Response."
The Differential Response program is a redesign of the child welfare system's initial response for families with a screened in report of abuse or neglect. In the new system, all families involved with child welfare will continue to receive a comprehensive child safety assessment by child welfare staff.
However, some families, where they are able to keep their children safe, will be offered services without opening a case with child welfare.
DHS Child Welfare will work with families to keep their children safely in their care if they can:
- act immediately and decisively to deal with threats to their child's safety;
- assist in adequate safety planning to manage threats to a child's safety;
- be supported by family, community partners, and others who can help them when they can't do it alone.
Governor Kitzhaber and the Oregon Legislature approved the following investments during the 2013 legislative session: $23.7 million in total funds for statewide implementation of Strengthening, Preserving and Reunifying Families programs to provide an array of services designed to support families and keep children safely with their families; nearly $11 million for 113 positions to address the workload of child welfare staff, increasing staffing level to 75% and increasing our ability to successfully implement Differential Response; and just under $1 million for nine additional positions to improve state compliance with the federal Indian Child Welfare Act through active efforts to keep children at home or shorten their stay in foster care.

Lisa Kisiel, a case worker for the ASPCA's Cruelty Intervention Advocacy (CIA) program, first saw the two tiny kittens whose eyes were sealed shut. Just days old, they lay with their mother and three siblings atop a ragged cardboard box and empty bags of Meow Mix, confined to a filthy closet with another nursing feline and her brood of five.
Throughout the squalid apartment, 75 other cats, ranging in age from six months to 14 years, suffered from upper respiratory infections and intestinal parasites. They competed for kibble that was scattered on top of dirty linoleum flooring. They breathed in the stench of urine and feces 24/7.
"It was a very toxic environment," says Lisa. Following up on a neighbor's complaint, she assessed the situation and moved the case to the top of her priority list. She and the team removed the nursing mothers and kittens first, and the remaining cats on two other occasions.
"When they're so little, the chances of them coming out of such compromised surroundings and recovering are slim," Lisa says. "But I knew if we pulled them immediately, they would at least have a chance."
For four months, Puccini and Pierre, as they became known, and 13 others from the case were cared for by the Anti-Cruelty staff at the ASPCA Animal Hospital. According to Dr. Bonnie Wong, medical supervisor of the Anti-Cruelty group, they were treated for upper respiratory infections, ear mites, exposure to parasites and anemia, and kitten diarrhea. Warm compresses were applied to their sealed, swollen eyes and heat to their tiny bodies. Then, during Valentine's Day week, they were adopted by Suzanne G., a Manhattan attorney whose two senior cats passed away in 2013.
These days, Puccini and Pierre run on three speeds: "eating, sleeping or running," according to Suzanne.
Since 2010, CIA has intervened in more than 150 hoarding cases in the five boroughs, helping more than 4,000 animals. The team also links hoarders to social service agencies and other resources that provide appropriate human services.
"Building strong personal relationships so that we can do these interventions is key," says social worker Carrie Jedlicka, whose background, like that of her colleagues, is conducive to nurturing clients' trust. In this case, the client also received medical attention.
"What keeps us going is seeing the animals we rescue go on to happy endings like this," adds Lisa, who initially was not sure the fragile felines would survive. "We see them at their worst, and it's rewarding to see them at their best."

Improving the Passenger Experience is our core business!
Passenger Experience (PaxEx) seems to evoke a lot of comment. There's a lot written, blogged, tweeted and commented in the press about the topic. Most of the positive press has been dedicated to the business/first class passenger amenities. Many extol the virtues of their experiences, which seems to be based on premium travel. Airlines, airports and other service providers focus their strategies, determine their KPI's and measure their results and pay their staff on KPI performance.
And yet, from the ordinary passenger's perspective, there has not been much positive change. We're still lined up continuously, hassled at security, herded in airports, spammed with retail offers and pay higher prices for food and beverages. We're still made to wait, kept in the dark about flight changes and sit in cramped, fully-loaded planes. We're still in immigration queues that seem endless, wait for baggage that seems to take as long as a short-haul flight and wait for taxis or buses in yet another line. All this the Passenger endures because they want to fly somewhere. Today's passenger feels hassled and neglected! We have a problem if we're trying to make the Passenger Experience better!
The Passenger Journey Graphic
The passeneger journey comprises several discrete travel elements - it is not just one continuum. The passenger views their journey in exactly these terms. To our point, we offer a guest blog on their passenger journey and their less than perfect trip. Trip changes due to unforeseen circumstances are always understandable, but it is the customer service that is ultimately the downfall resulting in a very poor Passenger Experience.
Passengers (we call them customers) operate in real-time. They are increasingly mobile and always connected. They are also more demanding and educated, which will influence the way in which airlines, airports and other service providers need to interact with them. Customers are focused entirely on their own personal activities, demanding these service providers meet their specific TLC needs (time, location and context). To better engage with their customers during their journey, the service providers need to identify the customers and establish a dialogue with them, beyond what is available with current mobile apps or customer rewards programs. Essentially, what's needed is an Integrated Customer Engagement strategy.
Passengers don't want to be part of a "one size fits all" process. Instead they want personalisation - relevant to them and packaged to fit their needs. Deploying effective customer engagement enables service providers to transform customer data into intelligent communication and avoiding spam (unwanted/irrelevant messages).
Making A Difference
Utilizing mobile apps and customer engagement programs, connected passengers yield a rich source of data for digital analytics. Properly used, the resulting business intelligence enables service providers to understand the needs of their passengers as customers, their preferences, the choices they make, the products and services they buy, and the activities and destinations they choose. Applying this knowledge affords our clients the opportunity to improve both their financial performance and the passenger service and experience delivered.

Recipe by BURYGOLD
"A very light and fluffy pancake that requires fresh buttermilk, but it's the best I've ever made!"
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

3 cups
all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons
white sugar
3 teaspoons
baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons
baking soda
3/4 teaspoon
3 cups
1/2 cup
1/3 cup
butter, melted
These have become my default pancakes. I made them again this morning. Use the old baker's tricks of letting your buttermilk, milk and eggs sit out for an hour before baking to get to room tempurature and you'll get increased fluff on these. And don't overmix. Be sure to leave small lumps of flour that break open when pouring out the mix on the griddle. I used blueberries today and they turned out great - coat any fruit you want to add in a bit of the flour mixture first and you'll find they don't all drop to the bottom. Great recipe. Thanks.
We made these pancakes last weekend. We were interested in trying them based on all the reviews, but they were disappointing. They weren't fluffy, they were thick and we were unimpressed. The extra sugar in the batter isn't necessary for buttermilk pancakes, but we like a lot of buttermilk flavor. We had been making Mom's Buttermilk Pancakes for months now. They're super easy to make and they're delicious!

It took a little tweaking and A LOT of time, but these did come out wonderful in the end. Like other reviewers, this made WAY more than the listed 12 five inch pancakes!! I could easily have fed my 5 family members with just 1/3 of the batter. The first batch I made (exactly as the recipe is written) weren't stellar. I found them to be heavy and strikingly like French Toast. (They DID make pretty good waffles as I had a TON of batter leftover.)
On my next batch (scaled down to 1/3) I added one extra teaspoon of sugar and one teaspoon of lemon juice. My trick for getting these nice and fluffy was to let the batter sit for a day or two in the refrigerator. The oxidation of the lemon juice and baking soda really caused the batter to swell with all those wonderful air bubbles that make a nice, tender and fluffy pancake. Making this on Sunday night and using it during the week has made this recipe a staple in my home. My family can't get enough of them!!
Yum! I was out of buttermilk so I put about 1 tsp of vinegar (or you can use lemon juice) in the one cup measuring cup and then filled with milk. By the time I was ready to mix the two together, I had "buttermilk". I scaled the recipe for "4" rather than "12" because I was alone but I barely ate half of them. I didn't even use a fork, I just poured the syrup on a plate and dipped! Piggy, don't you think? :) I am saving the rest for tomorrow and will just toast them in the toaster-oven. Can't wait!
These were delicious! They were so light and fluffy. The first time I made these I stirred the batter too much and they came out flat and slightly tough but the second time I barely mixed it and they turned out very tender and fluffy.
These were pretty good. Thank heaven for another reviewer's suggestion for using whole milk, because I only had 2 cups of buttermilk! I would, however, make one tiny suggestion: When adding all the wet ingredients together, make sure the butter has cooled somewhat, so as not to "cook" the eggs in the batter. You'll wind up with super lumpy pancake batter! You could also add the butter to the milk first, mix, then add the eggs, but DO NOT ADD THE BUTTER RIGHT OFF THE STOVE if you've already added the eggs! I also added some vanilla for extra flavor. Light, fluffy, and yummy!
I wish I could give this ten stars!! This is the best pancake recipe ever! I made the whole recipe, and froze the left overs, putting a square of waxed paper between each pancake. Then, just put them on a plate, zap in the microwave for 1 minute (for two pancakes), and you have a hot breakfast in no time! I'll never use a box mix again! Thank you!
My family just loves these pancakes! I always put alittle more milk in to thin the batter some. The only down side to these wonderful pancakes-- I can never seem to cook them fast enough for my boys!
You can successfully freeze unused buttermilk in the freezer. (milk too) Which is great, that way I always have buttermilk on hand.

Your doctor will ask about your medical history. A physical exam will be done. The diagnosis of BPH is obvious if you have the typical symptoms and you are an older male. At this point, the primary concern is that you do not have prostate cancer.
Certain tests will be done to confirm the diagnosis of BPH and to rule out prostate cancer. . The first test is a digital rectal exam. For this exam, your doctor inserts a gloved finger into the rectum. From here, your doctor can feel the surface of the prostate. The size of your prostate will be estimated and your doctor will look for anal diseases, and possibly identify a cancer.
Further testing will likely be done to check for cancer, determine the need for treatment, and to select the best treatment. Testing may include the following:
General tests —These may include renal function tests with measuring of blood creatinine and a urinalysis, which is usually done with a dipstick.
Prostate specific antigen (PSA) —PSA is a protein made by the prostate gland. PSA levels may increase when prostate cancer is present, but other noncancerous conditions like BPH can also cause an increase in PSA. Your doctor may use these test results in conjunction with other tests to determine if your symptoms are caused by a cancer or BPH.
Residual urine determination —This is a means of measuring the amount of urine left in your bladder after you have urinated. The amount of urine you cannot pass is important because it can lead to an infection or other kidney problems. For this test, your doctor will usually perform an abdominal ultrasound to determine the volume of remaining urine in your bladder. Alternatively, if a precise determination of the volume is indicated for clinical reasons, a tube called a catheter may need to be inserted into your bladder after you have urinated.
Urine flow study —This involves testing to determine how easily and rapidly your urine flows and how much pressure the bladder generates to empty itself. This will likely be done by a urologist who specializes in diseases of the urinary tract.
Cystoscopic examination —A cystoscope is a long, thin instrument that is inserted through the penis and into the bladder. This test is usually done in patients in whom the diagnosis of BPH is in doubt. The cystoscope has a lens and light that allow the urologist to see the urethra, prostate, and bladder. Certain procedures can also be performed while under anesthesia using this instrument, such as opening up the passageway through the prostate.
Cystometrogram —This test measures urine flow and bladder pressure. It is usually done in those patients who fail drug treatment or are being considered for a surgical procedure.
Transrectal ultrasound —An ultrasound is a safe way to visualize internal organs. The closer the probe is to the target organ, the better the pictures. Therefore, the ultrasound probe is inserted into the rectum to take photos of the prostate, which is just millimeters away. Cancers of the prostate can be detected this way.

Brad Pitt has been quite the busy man recently. The typically private actor has been traveling all over the world promoting his upcoming film, "World War Z," in theaters June 21st, creating a media blitz all on his own.
But he hasn't been traveling alone! Pitt recently took his 9-year-old son Pax to Seoul, South Korea, to join him for a stop on his press whirlwind. When the 49-year-old talked to "omg! Insider" at the film's red carpet premiere on Monday night in New York City, he told us why he has decided this promotion is a family affair. "You've ever had special trips with your parents when you're young? You know, we want to create those memorable moments too. Hey, it's just more fun for dad."
Check out this vid to see how the dedicated father of five spent Father's Day. And for more of the latest in entertainment news, tune in to "omg! Insider" on television tonight!

Circuit Length:
4.361 Km
Lap Record:
1:13.622 = 213.246 km/h - R. Barrichello (Ferrari) 2004
2011 Results
Pole Position:
Sebastian Vettel (Red Bull Renault); 1:13.014 = 215.021 km/h
Jenson Button (McLaren Mercedes) 4:04.39.537
Sebastian Vettel (Red Bull Renault), 2.709s behind
Mark Webber (Red Bull Renault) 13.828s behind
Fastest Lap:
Jenson Button (McLaren Mercedes); 1:16.956 = 204.007 km/h on Lap 69
The first point to remember this time round is that 2012 marks the 30th anniversary of the great Gilles Villeneuve's death. The circuit is named after the six-time Grand Prix winner, the first of whose victories came right here on its introduction to the calendar in 1978. Gilles, perhaps the most-loved driver in F1 history, died in qualifying for the Belgian Grand Prix at Zolder on May 8, 1982.
The Circuit Gilles Villeneuve may well be the hardest test of all for an F1 car's brakes; while it is technically a street circuit it has four decent straights where speeds reach around 300 km/h, each followed by a tight corner or chicane. Not only that, its kerbs are notorious too, the drivers using them to slingshot the cars out of corners, while the low grip means the tyres slide and tyre wear is high. Pirelli will once again offer their Soft and Supersoft combination, as in Monaco, but…
"… the contrasts between Monaco and Montreal couldn't be greater," says Lewis Hamilton, whose first Grand Prix victory was here in 2007. "Although they're both races that take place in the middle of a city," adds the McLaren star, "the circuits are very different and each has its own unique personality." Montreal's has a lot to do with the warm welcome the French-Canadian metropolis gives F1, which is one of the reasons why Caterham's Heikki Kovalainen calls this "a very cool track".
There's just one DRS zone this year, on the long straight before the final chicane, with that and Turn 10 – the hairpin – offering the best chances to overtake. Average lap speed will nudge the 200 km/h mark. It's also got the famous (infamous?) 'Wall of Champions', on the drivers' right out of that final right-left flick, where some of the sport's greatest names have come to grief.
It's easy to focus on the front-runners and forget the guys who toil around at the back, rarely scrapping for points but still giving everything they've got. Among the unsung heroes, HRT have especially fond memories of Montreal as it was here they recorded their best finish so far in F1. It may only have been 13th for Tonio Liuzzi last year, but it meant a great deal – and the little Spanish outfit comes to Montreal off its best result of 2012, 15th for Narain Karthikeyan in Monaco. "Our weakest point is quick corners – and there aren't many here!" says team principal Luis-Pérez-Sala.
One team keen to get back to front-running will be Lotus, whose Monaco weekend was undistinguished, to say the least. Rumour has it that Kimi Raikkonen is not endearing himself to those other unsung heroes of motor racing, the guys who actually prepare the cars – he asked for a new steering-system for Monaco then rejected it after a single lap. Teammate Romain Grosjean, meanwhile, has to break the habit of getting caught up in start-line incidents, as he did again in Monaco. "After a difficult day like that you want to jump straight back into the cart and have a proper race," says the Frenchman, for whom this will be his Montreal debut.
Regular front-runners who have never crossed the Canadian line in front are Red Bull. The double World Champions of the last two years have managed just three podiums in their six previous visits. That doesn't mean they don't like the place. "I would say Montreal is one of the top five Grands Prix of the year," says Mark Webber, "because it's a sensational atmosphere. It's a really, really good venue and always produces an interesting Grand Prix, for whatever reason."
It certainly did last year: Jenson Button came from last to first to win the longest Grand Prix in World Championship history, a rain-interrupted, rain-delayed 4-hour 4-minute marathon in which the Safety Car was the leader for long spells. "It's the perfect place to go racing," insists the McLaren ace, who last year made six visits to the pits, one of them a drive-through penalty, en route to his most extraordinary Grand Prix success so far.
After Monaco Fernando Alonso leads the title race by just three points from Red Bull partners Sebastian Vettel and Mark Webber, but the Spaniard will be aware that his Ferrari team hasn't won here since 2004. That was Michael Schumacher's seventh victory in Montreal, by the way. Only four other men – our own Alan Jones, Nelson Piquet, Ayrton Senna and Lewis Hamilton – have won more than once on the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve.
A warm welcome, did we say? Usually – but watch out for some possible disruptions this year as students in dispute with the Quebec government use the high-profile presence of a Formula 1 race to publicise their grievances…

I would like to introduce more map-based props (figures, terrain, obstacles, etc.) into my game. In particular, I'd like to be able to use a 3D printer to make props specific to whatever encounters a game session demands.

(Bloomberg) - William Frels and Mark Henneman, who run the $2.5 billion Mairs & Power Growth Fund, were named domestic stock-fund managers of the year by Morningstar Inc.
The top honor for international stock funds went to the $1.3 billion Virtus Foreign Opportunities Fund and the $6.8 billion Virtus Emerging Markets Opportunities Fund, both run by Rajiv Jain, Chicago-based Morningstar said in a statement today. The fixed-income winner was Mark Kiesel, manager of the $10.2 billion Pimco Investment Grade Corporate Bond Fund.
The six-member team that runs the $1.8 billion TFS Market Neutral Fund won in the alternatives category. David Giroux of the $13.7 billion T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation Fund was named allocation fund manager of the year. Both are new categories for the research firms awards.
The Mairs & Power Growth Fund returned an average of 5.6 percent annually over the past five years, better than 89 percent of peers, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Last year it returned 22 percent, topping 95 percent of rivals. Of the funds largest 25 holdings, 18 were bought in the 1990s and 17 have been in the portfolio for at least 10 years, Morningstar said in the statement.
Virtus Emerging Markets Opportunities Fund gained 3.8 percent annually for the past five years, better than 94 percent of competitors. The fund returned 20 percent in 2012, besting 58 percent of peers, according to the data.
Kiesels Pimco fund outperformed 91 percent of similar funds over the past five years, returning 10 percent annually. The fund, which topped 77 percent of rivals in 2012, had 17 percent of its money in bank debt as of Sept. 30.
Market Neutral
TFS Market Neutral Fund gained 4.5 percent annually for the past five years, better than 97 percent of peers. The teams 7.8 return last year topped 84 percent of rivals, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Morningstar defines alternative investments as those that dont fit neatly into traditional stock or fixed-income categories.
T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation gained 6 percent a year for the past five years, ahead of 95 percent of rivals. Its largest holding was Waltham, Massachusetts-based Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. as of Sept. 30, the data show. Girouxs 15 percent return in 2012 beat 82 percent of the competition.

Wye Oak are an indie folk rock duo from Baltimore, Maryland, USA, composed of Andy Stack (drums, keyboards, backup vocals) and Jenn Wasner (vocals, guitars). Their sound has been described as "earnest folk-influenced indie rock with touches of noise and dream pop". Wasner sings lead vocals and plays electric or acoustic guitar, while Stack plays both drums and keyboards, playing the drums with his feet and right hand, and the bass line with his left hand. The band was formed as Monarch in mid-2006, before changing their name to Wye Oak, a reference to the former state tree of their home state of Maryland. They released their first album If Children independently in 2007 and subsequently signed to Merge Records in 2008. The label re-released If Children that year, and a second album, The Knot, followed in 2009. Their new album Civilian was released in March 2011 via Merge Records in the US and City Slang in Europe. An edited version of the title track was featured in the trailer for the second season of The Walking Dead.

The Community of Disc Golfers and About All Things Disc Golf
Innova introduces the Dominator and Mamba discs.
Both were PDGA Approved as of 1-22-2012.
Anyone hear anything about these??
Views: 1781
any info on flight characteristics yet?
Let me guess, it's a mix between a Teebird, a Sidewinder and a Destroyer. I am a bit skeptical anymore of Innova and all of their new discs that they release. Different shades of the same thing at some point. Call me skeptical I guess.
im wondreing where all these new names of disc are going.
I guess this is what happens when so many freaked out after the Wahoo came out. Which is really a bad-ass-hour-long-fight-to-land-one fish. Now I wonder if so many people will complain about the Dominator that Innova will name all their discs something neutral like Ion, Vector, Axis. Oh wait....
Dave has stated that the Mamba is the biggest turning disc to date. With that speed number of 11, it should stable it up a little bit. I know, all you super arms will proclaim it the next great roller before you've even seen it.
The best news is that they aren't going to have the anhyzer (Vulcan) top on them. They should be unique unto themselves. Usually end up with a better disc that way historically with Innova.
This was taken from the Clearwater Disc Store:
The Mamba is a speed 11 finesse driver for players looking for more turn out of their drives. It excels at giving more distance even when not thrown perfectly. The Dominator is a speed 13 driver that falls between the Katana and the Boss. The Dominator has great glide and displays a predictable finish.
The Mamba was designed to give maximum distance for minimal effort. The Mamba has more high speed turn than any of our long range drivers, so throwing into a headwind is not recommended. For those with less driving speed, it will add distance. For the medium armed crowd, it will shape long lines for turnovers and straight shots, as well as hyzer flips and even big rolls. Initial tests indicate flight numbers at [11|5|-5|1].
Coming Soon!
The Dominator is a speed 13 plus distance driver designed to give the best of control and long line shaping for higher power players. Similar to the Katana, with more high speed stability, the Dominator has the glide to maximize distance with a predicable turn. Lower power players will be able to use the Dominator in weights down to the mid 130s in Blizzard Champion plastic. Dominator tests show [13|5|-1|2] as the potential flight numbers.
I have no interest in the Mamba but I definitely want to try the Dominator
