Congw. Ching Plaza as Department of Tourism Secretary?
Mindanaoan Congw. Ching Plaza from Butuan is very much qualified for the position of Department of Tourism Secretary.
She was the house committee chairperson for Tourism in the 8th, 9th and 10th congress. Her experience and drive would bring our country's tourism to new heights.
She is also a Brigadier General of the Philippine Air Force Reserve and a Doctor of Philosophy in Peace and Security Administration, Public Administration, Ecclesiastical Law and Humanities.
PDP-LABAN Vice President for Mindanao...
She is an achiever who would also be a great female addition to the envisioned gender-sensitive cabinet of President-Elect Rodrigo Duterte.
Read the Philippine Daily Inquirer article of Cris Panganiban for more information and let us know what you think...

People's Freedom Wall for President Duterte
Photo Credit: Friends of Rody Duterte
President Rodrigo Duterte is not God, but he could grant many (not all) of our prayers. He is not a Genie but he could make many (not all) of our wishes come true. He is not a mind reader either, so it is best to let him know about our prayers and wishes.
But, keep in mind that he is also not a magician who could make things appear out of thin air. So, don't expect to get everything your way. President Duterte now has a mandate given to him by over 16million Filipinos. This gives him the power to make things happen when his predecessors just dreamed of or talked about them.
He is a man of action that needs no further proof. He is decisive but with compassion. He is not a politician but a public servant. He is also not a hero but an ordinary man with extraordinary achievements.
"I don't care if I burn in hell for as long as the people I serve live in paradise." -RRD
This is the People's Freedom Wall for President Duterte. We cannot force him to read all of your comments everyday while he runs a country but we will definitely do our best to let him read once in a while.
Feel FREE to write any constructive comments, suggestions and criticisms! But keep in mind before writing that complaining without suggesting a better alternative is called whining.

Seda Hotel Centrio joins our Soap for Hope™ Livelihood Project
Thank so much to Seda Hotel Centrio represented by Mr. Noel Barrameda - Hotel Manager for joining our Soap for Hope™ Livelihood Project at Barangay 17.
Thank you also to my lovely wife, Michelle, for donating and distributing slippers to 80 happy kids at Barangay 17, Cagayan de Oro City.
Soap for Hope™ Livelihood Project is a trademark jointly undertaken by www.ElmerFrancisco.org and Sealed Air / Diversey Corporation represented by my good friend, Mr. Stefan Phang. We had been doing this project in multiple locations with different beneficiaries for quite some time now, 5 years if I'm not mistaken. Thank you so much Stefan for the all out support. I really admire your energy, brother!
Protection of children and their welfare is a cause very close to our hearts. Actually, even our livelihood projects were born out of our aim to protect children in a sense that their parents would have means to support them and would not even think of selling them to human traffickers which is very rampant in some ASEAN countires. Moreover, Soap for Hope and Linens for Life projects also help save our environment as we recycle soaps and linens from partner hotels that would otherwise end-up in dump sites or clog our drainage systems.

something wrong!!
Posted by Reviewer1897629 on Apr 05, 2012
This new bottle I purchased tastes horrible - sort of chemically altered so I read the ingredients & compared them to the old bottle. I noticed that they switched from orange juice to orange juice flavor. I also noticed that the new bottle does not say no presevatives like the old one. I'm switching to a different brand now. Tomorrow I'll be calling iHerb & Country Life because my husband is having a weird reaction to it... I'm really not pleased!!

CLNS Tonight: Gary Washburn on Rasheed Wallace and More!
- Updated: August 9, 2010
We have some very exciting news to announce! Celtics 24/7, Celtics Late Night Show, and Ginos Jungle are teaming up to bring you weekly podcasts! Last week, CLNS was nice enough to have me on their show as a guest and after some good Celtics talk we decided to partner up and bring their podcasts to Celtics 24/7. We will be posting their shows on here weekly so be sure to tune in and join the discussion! They have special guests almost every week, and tonight Gary Washburn will be on to discuss the news of Rasheed Wallace retiring, Shaq, and all things Celtics. Enjoy!
The Celtics Late Night Show will be live tonight!
9PM EST on Blog Talk Radio and CelticsLateNightShow.com
Tonight's special guest will be Gary Washburn from The Boston Globe!
Earlier today Gary broke the story that Rasheed Wallace WILL be retiring, according to his agent. Washburn is kind enough to join us and discuss the story live. We will be going in-depth with possible ways the Celtics can get rid of Sheed's contract.
Following Washburn's depature from the show we will be going in-depth on the topic that took over Celtics Nation during the past week. That being the newest addition, "The Big Shamrock", Shaquille O'Neal. We want to hear YOUR opinion on the Shaq signing. The toll free call-in number is 1-877-245-6136. We expect the call lines to be over flooding with excited (or pissed off) Celtics fans. No opinion will be shut down (just try to keep it clean).
CLNS is also proud to announce that tonight's show will be the first show in partnership with Celtics 24/7. CLNS is now the "official podcast" of Celtics 24/7 and we will soon be hosting their forums live on the CLNS page. This will give listeners a chance to discuss all things Celtics when we are not on air. Tune in tonight for more details about the partnership with Celtics 24/7.

Product Description
Here, unfortunately, is a simple-minded greatest hits collection from a band known for concept albums, not singles. This Arista collection will please fans of the group's best known tracks: "Carry On My Wayward Son," "Dust in the Wind," "Point of Know Return," and the maudlin 1982 hit "Play the Game Tonight." But the digital remixes of "The Wall" and "Wayward Son" from 1976's Leftoverture are superfluous (the originals sounded warmer) and the absence of any tracks from the band's self-titled debut and the excellent Masque is inexcusable, albeit commercially safe. The song sequence also leaves a lot to be desired: the jump from 1975's Genesis-like "Song for America" to the corporate pop of 1984's "Perfect Lover" is jarring at best, and does little to make the case that Kansas deserves any more than the belittled reputation they've unfortunately inherited. --James Rotondi --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Now, personally, I know some people who own one of these albums, maybe even two. They're good people -- culturally famished, obviously; lacking in taste, unquestionably -- but not necessarily people you'd cross the street to avoid. But people who own ALL FIVE of these albums? I must admit, it's difficult to visualize the sort of person whose record collection includes Styx, Foreigner, Boston, Kansas, and Journey. I suppose they would have a bit of Bad Company, Survivor, REO Speedwagon, and Meatloaf thrown in for the sake of variety. The walls would no doubt be adorned by posters of Molly Hatchet and black velvet unicorns. X-Men comics would litter the closet floor; a few faded photos of Heather Locklear would be tucked beneath the mattress.
While it is tempting to gather these sad misfits and lock them away from civilized society, we must -- MUST -- hold out some hope for their redemption. Find these people, my friends, find them SOON. Buy them a Clash album, some early R.E.M., some Replacements. Offer them moderate doses of the Velvet Underground and Sonic Youth and Pavement. With care and nurturing, we CAN redeem them. Onward!
firstname.lastname@example.com from Yakima, Washington , September 17, 1998 Kerry Livgren's departure from Kansas was a disapointment to all die-hard Kansas fans, however we all saw it coming as he and Steve Walsh drifted apart both musically and philosophically. Livgren's Kansas lyrics read like a road map of his search, literally, for life's meaning. We didn't have to wait too long, however, to see what this guitar virtuoso would come up with. On this, his first solo effort, Livgren has gathered together some phenomenal musicians(Ronnie James Dio of Black Sabbath, Barrimore Barlow of Jethro Tull, David Pack of Ambrosia, Paul Goddard of Atlanta Rhythym Section and many others including Dave Hope of Kansas) and he's finally done things "his" way. The result is an inspiring and musically powerful collection of songs. It is a departure from the Kansas sound but his Christian perspective is encouraging and his use of great back-up musicians and guests produces a very good recording for anyone who appreciates Kerry Livgren's awesome guitar and keyboard work as well as some deep and thought-provoking lyrics. Go get it (if you can find it).
I guess the guys from Stryper were too busy to help out.
Before publishing the final verdict, maybe he should also consult with other Amazon Customers who bought titles by Kansas (and) also bought titles by these artists:
Kerry Livgren Rush Boston Journey ..... Foreigner
Surely there must be a Star Trek convention coming to Indianapolis soon, and these alleged customers shouldn't be hard to find there. But in the meantime, from this stellar list I would vote for Styx, with Journey a close second, for overall scatology.
p.s. who the heck is kerry livgren? Is he/she in the Chieftains?

Chinese Leader's Tomb Unearthed
Monday, June 24, 2013
BEIJING, CHINA—Last summer, construction workers clearing land outside Beijing came across a lavish tomb. Archaeologists have since excavated the site, and found a gravestone that names the owner of the tomb as Liu Ji, a Tang Dynasty (A.D. 618-907) military governor of what is today Beijing. Liu, who was born in A.D. 757, was an important figure during a period marked by a weak central government, but died at the age of 53 after being poisoned by one of his sons. In addition to funerary inscriptions for Liu and his wife, a stone coffin bed and a number of frescoes were also discovered.

Or his voice actor. Mark Meer, who voiced the male Commander Shepard in all three Mass Effect games, sat down with filmmaker group Sneaky Zebra to create this dramatic reading of the opening lines to Miracle of Sound's famous Commander Shepard theme. Now, when can we expect to hear Jennifer Hale's version? I don't wanna seem ungrateful, but that would really put some icing on an already pretty fantastic cake.

This is a divisional of application Ser. No. 07/766,497, filed on Sep. 26, 1991, now U.S. Pat. No. 5,162,408, issued on Nov. 10, 1992, which is a divisional of application Ser. No. 07/515,013, filed on Apr. 24, 1990, now U.S. Pat. No. 5,081,300, issued on Jan. 14, 1992.
This invention pertains to N-alkenyl substituted amine-N-oxide compounds found to be very effective process stabilizers for polymeric systems, especially those processed at elevated temperatures, as well as for lubricant compositions.
Organic polymeric materials such as plastics and resins are subject to thermal, oxidative and/or photodegradation. A great variety of stabilizers are known in the art for stabilizing a diversity of substrates. Their effectiveness varies depending upon the causes of degradation and the substrate to be stabilized. In general, it is difficult to predict which stabilizers will be most effective and most economical for any one area of stabilization. For example, stabilizer effectiveness in reducing volatility may depend upon preventing bond scission in the substrate molecule. Limiting embrittlement and retaining elasticity in a polymer or rubber may require prevention of excessive crosslinking and/or chain scission. Prevention of discoloration may require inhibiting reactions which yield new chromophores or color bodies in the substrate or stabilizer. Problems of process stability and incompatibility must also be considered.
Saturated tertiary amine N-oxides are known as non-ionic surfactants. The oxidation and rearrangement of selected N-alkenyl(allyl) tertiary amine N-oxides to the corresponding O-alkenyl(allyl) hydroxylamines are taught by A. C. Cope et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 71, 3423 (1949); R. F. Kleinschmidt and A. C. Cope, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 66, 1929 (1944); S. Inoue et al., Chem. Letters, 1986, 2035; and Y. Inouye et al., J. Org. Chem. 41, 300 (1976). The use of N-alkenyl-N-oxides of tertiary amines as stabilizers for organic substrates is not taught in the prior art.
One object of the instant invention is to provide a stabilized composition of (a) an organic material subject to oxidative, thermal or actinic-induced degradation, and (b) an N-alkenyl substituted amine-N-oxide as a stabilizer.
Another object of this invention is to provide selected N-alkenyl substituted amine-N-oxide compounds having efficacious process stabilization properties not processed by the O-substituted hydroxylamines of the prior art.
Still another object of this invention is to provide lubricating oil compositions stabilized against oxidation, sludge formation and viscosity increases by the presence of the N-alkenyl substituted amine-N-oxide compounds of this invention.
Another object of this invention is to provide novel N-alkenyl amine-N-oxide compounds.
The compounds of this invention possess excellent and surprisingly superior properties compared to the closest compounds of the prior art in several important facets. These are:
(1) they exhibit superior polymer stabilization properties during the processing of polymers at elevated temperatures;
(2) they provide resistance to color development during processing especially when used in conjunction with a phenolic antioxidant;
(3) they are less prone to oxidation by ambient air during storage or in handling;
(4) they do not interact with polymerization catalysts such as the sulfonic acid catalysts used during the curing of aminoplast resin systems;
(5) they are more soluble in typical organic solvents and are more compatible with the polymeric substrates being stabilized;
(6) they resist moisture pickup and provide low water carry-over properties; and
(7) they inhibit sludge formation in and control viscosity increase of motor oil formulations during use.
The instant invention pertains to stabilized compositions which comprise
(a) an organic material subject to oxidative, thermal or actinic induced degradation, and

Preferably the instant compounds of formula I are those where
R1 and R2 are independently straight or branched chain alkyl of 1 to 20 carbon atoms, alkyl of 1 to 18 carbon atoms terminated by a group --OR8, --NR9 R10, --SR11, --COOR12 or --CONR13 R14 or interrupted by phenylene, --O--, --S--, --SO--, --SO2 --, --COO--, --OCO--, --CONR15 --, --NR15 CO-- or --NR16 --, where R8, R9, R10, R11, R12, R13, R14, R15 and R16 are independently hydrogen or alkyl of 1 to 18 carbon atoms; or R1 and R2 are independently cycloalkyl of 5 to 7 carbon atoms, benzyl, benzyl substituted on the phenyl ring by alkyl of 1 to 12 carbon atoms or by α-cumyl; aryl of 6 to 14 carbon atoms or said aryl substituted by one or two alkyl of 1 to 24 carbon atoms,
R3 is hydrogen or alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms,
R4 is hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms or phenyl,
R5 and R6 are independently hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 9 carbon atoms or a group of formula II, and
R7 is hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 9 carbon atoms or phenyl.
Most preferably the instant compounds of formula I are those where
R1 and R2 are independently alkyl of 8 to 18 carbon atoms, cyclohexyl, benzyl, phenyl, 1-naphthyl, or said phenyl or said naphthyl substituted by one or two alkyl of 4 to 12 carbon atoms,
R3 is hydrogen,
R4 is hydrogen or methyl,
R5 and R6 are independently hydrogen or a group of formula II, and

When any of the aforementioned groups are alkyl, they are, for example, methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, sec-butyl, tert-butyl, isoamyl, tert-amyl, n-hexyl, 2-ethylhexyl, isooctyl, n-octyl, nonyl decyl, undecyl, lauryl, tridecyl, tetradecyl, hexadecyl, heptadecyl, octadecyl, eicosyl, tricontyl and branched isomers thereof.
Cycloalkyl of 5 to 12 carbon atoms includes, for example, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, cycloheptyl, cyclooctyl and cyclododecyl.
Phenylalkyl of 7 to 15 carbon atoms includes, for example, benzyl, phenethyl, α-methylbenzyl and β-methyphenethyl.
Aryl of 6 to 14 carbon atoms includes, for example, phenyl, 1-naphthyl, 2-naphthyl, xenyl, anthracyl and phenanthryl.
Aryl substituted by alkyl is, for example, tolyl, xylyl, mesityl, ethylphenyl, tert-butylphenyl, tert-octylphenyl, tert-dodecylphenyl, tert-butylnaphthyl or tert-octylnaphthyl.
The starting materials from making the instant compounds of formula I are largely items of commerce and can be made by known methods.
The instant compounds of formula I are conveniently prepared the allylation of a secondary amine using an alkenyl (allyl) halide by the method taught by A. W. Weston et al, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 65, 674 (1943) followed by oxidation of the N-alkenyl(allyl) tertiary amine to the corresponding N-alkenyl(allyl) amine-N-oxide.
A preferred embodiment of the instant compounds is derived from hydrogenated tallow amine which is a mixture of secondary amines of the general formula
where the typical distribution of the alkyl substituents is as follows:
______________________________________T1 T2 %______________________________________C16 C14 1.9C16 C16 12.4C16 C17 2.8C16 C18 36.0C17 C18 3.9C18 C18 39.0other 4.0______________________________________
It is clear that the di(hydrogenated tallow)amine originating from animal sources may well vary somethat in the specific distribution of the alkyl substituents, but the di(hydrogenated tallow)amine contains major amounts of N,N-dihexadecylamine, N,N-dioctadecylamine and N-hexadecyl-N-octadecylamine. The individual components of the mixture can be separated by distillation under high vacuum.
However, for the purposes of this invention, there is no need to carry out such a separation and the hydroxylamine prepared from the di(hydrogenated tallow)amine represents a preferred starting material for making the N-alkenyl compounds of this invention.
The compositions where component (a) is a synthetic polymer are especially part of this invention, most particularly when the synthetic polymer is a polyolefin such as polypropylene.
The instant compounds are effective stabilizers for organic materials or compositions of matter comprising organic matter in that they reduce degradation resulting from long term oxidative and/or thermal aging and effectively protect said materials from actinic radiation.
In addition, the instant compounds show little tendency to evaporate or sublime from the organic compositions during thermal processing. Thus, the instant compounds are effective process stabilizers for organic polymers processed at elevated temperatures.
In still another end-use application, the instant compounds of formula I, especially those where R1 and R2 are aryl, are useful in stabilizing, by inhibiting oxidation, industrial lubricants such as lubricating oils, turbine oils, transformer oils, transmission fluids, glass-annealing oils, greases, steam turbine oils, gasoline engine oils, diesel engine oils, jet engine oils, metal working fluids and the like. They are also effective in stabilizing waxes, heating oil, bunker and residual oils, asphalt, gasoline and jet engine fuel.
Still another aspect of the instant invention are the novel compounds of formula I ##STR4## wherein R1 and R2 are independently alkyl of 8 to 36 carbon atoms, benzyl, benzyl substituted on the phenyl ring by alkyl of 1 to 18 carbon atoms or by α-cumyl, aryl of 6 to 14 carbon atoms or said aryl substituted by one or two alkyl of 1 to 24 carbon atoms,
R3 and R4 are independently hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 9 carbon atoms, alkenyl of 3 to 6 carbon atoms or aryl of 6 to 10 carbon atoms, and
R5, R6 and R7 are independently hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 9 carbon atoms, alkenyl of 3 to 6 carbon atoms, aryl of 6 to 10 carbon atoms or a group of formula II ##STR5##
The most preferred novel compounds of the instant invention are those where
R1 and R2 are independently alkyl of 8 to 18 carbon atoms, benzyl, phenyl, 1-naphthyl, or said phenyl or said naphthyl substituted by one or two alkyl of 4 to 12 carbon atoms,
R3 is hydrogen,
R4 is hydrogen or methyl,
R5 and R6 are independently hydrogen or a group of formula II, and
R7 is hydrogen.

The following examples are presented for the purpose of illustration only and are not to be construed to limit the nature or scope of the instant invention in any manner whatsoever.
Into a cooled solution of 5.0 g (9 mmol) of N-allyl-N,N-dioctadecylamine in 50 ml of chloroform at 0� C. under a nitrogen atmosphere is added dropwise with stirring a solution of 2.82 g (9 mmol) of 55% active m-chloroperbenzoic acid in 25 ml of chloroform. After the addition is complete (approximately 10 minutes), the resultant solution is allowed to warm to ambient temperature (about 22�-24� C.). The reaction is complete after about 2 hours when TLC analysis (silica gel, 19:1 v/v ethyl acetate:methanol)indicates the starting material has completely reacted. The reaction mixture is passed through a short column of basic alumina using chloroform as an eluent to give 5.2 g (quantitative yield) of the title compound as a white solid melting at 59�-64� C.
TLC and 1 HNMR analyses confirm the structure of the title compound.
Following the general procedure of Example 1 and using an equivalent amount of N-allyl-N,N-bis(hydrogenated tallow)amine in place of N-allyl-N,N-dioctadecylamine the title compound is prepared.
Following the general procedure of Example 1, the title compound is prepared starting with N-allyl-N,N-dibenzylamine as starting material.
The title compound is prepared following the general procedure of Example 1 starting from N-allyl-N,N-dioctylamine.
The title compound is prepared starting with N-allyl-N-N-diphenylamine using the general procedure of Example 1.
The title compound is prepared following the general procedure of Example 1 starting with N,N'-but-2-en-1,4-diyl-bis(N,N-dibenzylamine).
The title compound is prepared following the general procedure of Example starting with N,N'-but-2-en-1,4-diyl-bis(N,N-diphenylamine).
The test stabilizers are solvent blended using methylene chloride into unstabilized polypropylene (PROFAX 6501 Himont) which already contains 0.1% by weight of calcium stearate. After removal of solvent by evaporation under reduced pressure, the resin is extruded using an MPM one-inch single screw extruder under the following extruder conditions:
______________________________________Screw RPM 80Cylinder #1 heater zone 243� C.Cylinder #2 heater zone 268� C.Cylinder #3 heater zone 279� C.Gate, adapter die 282� C.Melt Temperature 280-283� C.Residence Time seconds 45______________________________________
After the first and fifth extrusions, the melt flow rate (MFR) is determined by the ASTM method 1238 condition L. The MFR with polypropylene varies inversely with molecular weight. The higher is the MFR, the lower is the molecular weight. A relative change in MFR between the first and fifth extrusion values indicates that the relative effectiveness of the test stabilizer in protecting the polypropylene from degradation during processing at the elevated temperature. The MFR data for a number of test stabilizers are given in the table below.
______________________________________ Additive MFR (g/10 min)Additive* Concentration After ExtrusionCompound of (% by weight) 1 5______________________________________AO A 0.1 17.9 25.6AO A plus 0.1Example 1 0.05 8.6 12.5______________________________________ *AO A is neopentanetetrayl tetrakis(3,5di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyhydrocinnamate). **Base resin contains 0.1% by weight of calcium stearate.
The instant N-allyl N-oxide compound provides good process stabilization to polypropylene.
This example illustrates the color stabilizing effectiveness of the instant compounds in combination with a phenolic antioxidant.
When pellets obtained after the fifth extrusion as described in Example 8 are compression molded into 125 mil (3.2 mm) thick plaques at 193� C., the yellowness index (YI) values on said plaques are determined according to ASTM test method D1925. The results are given below.
______________________________________ AdditiveAdditive* Concentration YellownessCompound of (% by weight) Index______________________________________AO A 0.1 17.7AO A plus 0.1Example 1 0.05 13.5______________________________________
The plaque containing both the instant compound and the phenolic antioxidant develops far less color than the plaque with the phenolic antioxidant alone.
The antioxidant effectiveness of the instant stabilizers in engine oils is evaluated by the ASTM test method, D4742. A 1.5 gram test sample of 10W-30 engine oil, formulated to meet SD/CC quality level containing 0.5% by weight of the test compound is placed in the test apparatus. The test is then completed according to the standard method procedure and the oxidation induction time, in minutes, is recorded. A longer induction time indicates greater oxidation stability. The compound of Example 5 is an effective antioxidant for engine oils.
When using the test procedure of Example 10 the N-alkenyl N-oxide compound of Example 5 is replaced by the instant compound of Example 7, the compound of Example 7 is also shown to be an effective antioxidant for engine oils.

Old Frankoma Bud Vase - Unusual Blue
This pretty little vase was made by the Frankoma Potteries of Oklahoma. It appears to have been produced between 1951 and 1975. In the 1951 catalog one of the colors it was offered in was Turquoise Blue. This appears a grayish, more subdued blue and might be the Clay Blue glaze that was used between 1953 & 1961. It is a hard color to identify and photograph. It is made of the red Sapulpa clay. The Frankoma name and design number- 32 on the bottom.
It measures almost 4 1/2" tall and is in very good condition with minimal wear and no damage.

- [Voiceover] Hi. I'm James Williamson, Senior Author at Lynda.com, and I want to welcome you to CSS Core Concepts. If you're brand-new to CSS or feel like maybe you've missed some of the important concepts along the way, then this course is for you. I've designed it to teach the basic core concept of CSS that authors will need before moving on to more specific projects. We'll start by focusing on the basics of CSS, such as syntax, learning how to set properties, and exploring the relationship between style sheets and HTML.
From there, we'll turn our attention to properly targeting page content, how to properly prevent and resolve conflicts between styles, controlling basic site topography, mastering the box model, and how to properly define color. So, grab a refreshing beverage, fire up your favorite code editor, and let's get started.

It's finally warm, and Columbia noticed. Yesterday was filled with Powwow, the continuation of the Divest protest, and outdoor merriment on the lawns. Birkenstocks abound, sunglasses were everywhere, and some people even broke out their rompers. We get it, Columbia. You haven't seen sun since last semester (or maybe since Bacchanal, but who can remember that). And we're right there with ya… which is why we're having our meeting outside today! See you on the lawns at 7pm sharp to talk pitches, posts, and PrezBo. (Just kidding. As much as we love the sun, we'll be in Lerner 505 again. As usual.)

In an in-depth analysis of Zayn's new single, we've discovered that he may have been singing about none other than Bwog itself. See for yourself.
Climb on (the executive) board. We'll go slow (with the pitches, so you can keep up).
So we'll piss off the neighbors (aka everyone else in SGO, because we're always louder than their club meetings are).
The place to lose your fears (of pitching risky articles, because we always love them)
Yeah, reckless behavior (see also: DWB)
A place that is so pure, so dirty and raw (this line just speaks for itself, if we're being honest)
It's a paradise and it's a war zone (never has a more accurate description of Bwog been articulated, thank you, Zayn).
In all seriousness, come through tonight! See you at 7pm in SGO, Lerner 505.

Bwog's second meeting of the semester is tonight! You might be thinking to yourself, What's so special about the second meeting? It's not the first, so what's the big deal? Also, how has a week of the semester already gone by? Also, why is time passing so quickly? How is it that my life seems to be passing me by? Why is time so fleeting? Will I ever find true happiness?
Now, please, take a break from your mini existential crisis, and return your attention to this post. In the words of that annoying kid who sang nursery rhymes, "First is the worst, second is the best!" For once, that kid tells the truth. The first meeting of the semester was the worst, because it didn't have YOU in it! That's right, readers, tonight is your chance to join Bwog and see what all the fuss is about. Tonight is the first open meeting of two! So if you reeeeeeeeally can't make it tonight, come next Sunday! For all those who missed the first Bwog recruitment post… you should really just go read that because it will tell you But if you're really to lazy to go back and read it, here are the logistics – what we're looking for and what you need to know:
Aaaaaaand for all those current Bwoggers out there: bring your friends, bring your kids, bring your wife! We'll be in Lerner 505 at 7pm on the dot, waiting with snacks and open arms for our new friends.

Well, folks, this is it. The last meeting of the semester. Someone bring the Kleenex. But it's not all bad news. This means Winter Break, and going home for the holidays, and time spent with friends and family! We'll miss you all, but Bwog will still be here when you return.
Be sure to come to Lerner 505 at 7pm tonight to say your goodbyes. We'll be the ones crying into our laptops. Time to invest in a keyboard protector.

Lately it seems as though every Facebook event has been advertised as a study break:
"Insomnia cookie study break!"
"Yoga relaxation session for finals"
"Panhellenic study break"
"Take a break, watch the debate!"
Well, here's one more for you: Take a study break with Bwog tonight! Put down that textbook for an hour. Turn off that computer. And come to Lerner 505 at 7pm tonight, for jokes, snacks, and absolutely no talk of tests. We promise that we won't discuss finals, imminent as they may be.

Well folks, midterms are finally upon us. No, wait. Midterms were upon us last week. And the week before. Some of us even had midterms the week before that. What's the deal with midterms, anyway? They seem to last forever.
Why they're still called "midterms," we'll never know. Spoiler alert: midterms are really just tests. So, in the wise words of man/myth/legend Jesse McCartney, "Don't stress, don't stress, don't stress. You deserve nothin' but the best." And what could be better than Bwog? Bring your pitches to the meeting tonight at 7pm in Lerner 505 – there'll be snacks, laughs, and at least a few fellow Jesse fans. After all, who can forget that beautiful soul? Or, more importantly, that beautiful face?

We know it's been family weekend these past couple of days. Hope y'all had some good, clean, wholesome fun! Because now it's time for Bwog. And you know us, we tend to get a little unseemly. So maybe don't tell your parents to tag along tonight? If you're lucky, they've already kissed you goodbye and headed off in a taxi, back to that hometown you miss so much. If you're already missing those 'rents, we're here as a shoulder to cry on. Or if, on the other hand, you couldn't wait to see them go, you're in good company. Come on over to Lerner 505 tonight at 7pm. We'll provide the snacks, and although they may not taste like Mom's home cooked meals, we'll do our best.

You used to come to Bwog on Sunday's.
Late night when you need our snacks.
Come to Bwog on Sunday's.
Late night when you need our jokes.
And we know that come 7pm, you'll slide into our DMs.
You'll show up in Lerner 505, what a time to be alive.
Ever since the meetings started you
Been wanting to come hang out
Everybody knows and you feel left out
Don't get us down, don't get us stressed out.

Nicki Minaj has consistently expressed her desire for young adults – for young women in particular – to stay in school. What she hasn't yet expressed is her desire for you to come to the Bwog Meeting tonight. But make no mistake, we know she wants you to. She'd obviously encourage it; after all, why wouldn't she want you to come? Good people, good snacks, good jokes. If you don't want to miss out on an event that the queen of rap would approve of, come to Lerner 505 at 7pm sharp. And we do mean sharp. Sharp like Nicki's winged eyeliner.

"LOVELY PORTSMOUTH - HISTORIC SEAPORT TOWN" Top 5 Page for this destination Portsmouth by LoriPori
Portsmouth Travel Guide: 284 reviews and 1,389 photos
Friday, Saturday and Sunday - September 21, 22 & 23, 2007
New Hampshire's oldest community, PORTSMOUTH was first given the name Strawberry Banke because of the abundant wild strawberries growing beside the Pistaqua River. It was incorporated as a town in 1653. A historic seaport and popular tourist destination, Portsmouth offers many attractions such as: USS Albacore Museum Strawberry Banks Museum, Fort Constitution, Harbor Cruises and many shops and restaurants.
For this reason, Portsmouth was chosen by the lovely Miss Em (Emilienoelle) as the site for a weekend VT Meet. Attended by members, some with their families, a great time was had by all.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank Emily for all her hard work in organizing this wonderful meet. It was awesome!

Lori, fabulous Portsmouth with oustanding photos here. I espeically like the "Alcatraz of the East". Oh I didn't know that you once had such a big VT meeting without me in Portsmouth. ;-)
Wow, a hideout for notorious pirates, that seems mouthwatering! All those historical houses look exciting!
Looks like a fine place for a VT meeting -- almost as good as Karlsruhe, LOL. Interesting tips on the historic houses.
Lots of interesting sites, history and good times wrapped up in this page. I regret that we didn't have time to stop in Portsmouth when we passed through there on our way to Maine. Maybe next time.
Great looking buildings and lighthouses. Great looking VTers too. Cheers, SL :)
What a fabulous meeting you had! BTW, I love lighthouses maybe because we haven't got any in Switzerland ;)
What a wonderful VT-meeting you had there. I wish we would be able to gether such a compain here in Russia. The Portsmouth Naval Prison looks really like a castle! Thanks Lori for sharing!
I've only driven through Portsmouth on my way from Maine to points further south, and never knew there was so much to see there. The VT meet looks like a lot of fun.
Hi Lori, you have some great piccies too. We must do that again sometimes!
Great page, thanks for sharing. Also thank you for signing the postcard from the Portsmouth meet, great addition to my collection:) Greetings from Bulgaria
