So, I am no stranger to using
antibiotics to cure many different things. I have had terrible high blood pressure for
most of my life. Diet and exercise do nothing to regulate it. My doctor prescribed Labetelol to control it. About two weeks after I started, I got so ill I had to
be hospitalized. It turns out that the pharmacy had filled my prescription
incorrectly. Instead of high blood pressure medicine, I was ingesting a
ridiculously high amount of an anti-seizure medicine called Lamictal. I was
hospitalized for a week with something called Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (Great.
I can't even get something with a cool name. Sounds like I picked it up in
Jersey). The recovery was brutal. It permanently burned out my tear ducts as
well as destroyed my skin.
Needless to say, I am much more reticent
to use prescriptions. I am not opposed to them - sometimes they are the only thing that cures what you're fighting.
However, after having kids I have tried to incorporate a more naturalistic
method of treating my daughters before rushing off to the pediatrician's office. (Usually right after I go there, the girls bring something even worse home than what I brought them for!) I have read many different books on
alternatives to conventional medical treatments. This is the best book, hands
down, that I have discovered. I found it last fall on Amazon's Best-Seller list of Children's Health books.
It's called 100 Natural Remedies for
Your Child. The Complete Guide to Safe, Effective Treatments for Childhood's
Most Common Ailments, from Allergies to Weight Loss. It's by Dr. Jared M. Skowron. It's broken down into three
sections: Natural Solutions for your Kids, Top 100 Pediatric Health Conditions
and Safe, Natural Solutions and Body System Remedies.
Part One, Natural Solutions for your
Kids, talks all about the power of food. More and more people are choosing to
cut out processed food, foods with potential toxins/pesticides and other less
healthy food choices. Instead, we are becoming more knowledgeable about the
best types of protein, carbohydrates, fats and sugars to consume. In my house I have been slowly transforming my pantry over
the last 7 years. The first thing I did was to add whole grains. We started
eating much more clean food. We have been slowly eliminating processed foods
from our diets which means I have to freakin' cook more - but it's all worth it
knowing that I am helping keep my children healthy while teaching them how to
eat correctly. We have added more Omegas, probiotics and complex carbohydrates to our daily food consumption. Chapter 1 from Dr. Skowron's book is a great start if you're
looking to make healthy changes for your family and yourself. It's easy to read
and also gives great stories from children who have overcome great health
challenges with changes to their diet instead of solely relying on prescriptions.
The second part, Top 100 Pediatric Health Solutions, is phenomenal because it reads like a
dictionary of illnesses. As soon as my
two year old gets a cold, within 5 days she also is host to a vicious earache. I flip
to the index of 100 Natural Remedies for Your Child and it tells me exactly
where to find the information about ear infections. We know that she doesn't have allergies, so
this is not the cause of the inflammation.
We tried out the herbal eardrops Dr. Skowron suggests. This helped immensely and the infection cleared
up without the need for amoxicillin.
You can find just about any childhood concern addressed in this chapter:
from cradle cap to pink eye to croup.
There are also holistic approaches to more severe illnesses like cystic
fibrosis and diabetes. Each condition
has a description of the symptoms and provides multiple methods of addressing
the issues with diet, vitamins and supplements and naturopathic remedies. He also offers some alternative remedies for
many of the conditions. I highly
recommend trying natural methods before jumping right into an expensive
trip to the pharmacy. It's not your only method of treatment!!!
The last section is about overall recommendations for
healthy living. Two thirds of my hair
fell out after my second pregnancy. I
figured it was just mad at me for having a second kid – but it apparently held
a grudge. I used the information about the Mediterranean Diet to help it slowly get over being a hater and return to my head. I also know that high blood
pressure runs rampant on my side of the family.
So, I have used this chapter to introduce the key foods and naturopathic
remedies into my household to hopefully stave off this condition for the girls
and eliminate it from my life. Also, the back of the book has an index that reveals all natural supplement - drug interactions. This
ia a wonderful section about the different remedies, how much to take of them
as well as possible side effects. It's
critical to know what will interact poorly!
I had a friend that didn't know St. John's Wort can diminish the efficacy
of oral birth control pills. Oops. Nine months later we had a new tiny
Anyway – I hope your child never has one second of
illness. However, should her entire
class become at risk for a lice outbreak, it's good to know you can turn to
this book for some remedies. Same for
ADHD and autism. Before placing your
child on tons of prescription drugs, at least give a natural method a
chance. Or, read it over and implement
small, healthy changes into your kitchen.
It will help everyone – not just the under 18 crowd.
100 Natural Remedies for Your Child. The Complete Guide to
Safe, Effective Treatments for Childhood's Most Common Ailments, from Allergies
to Weight Loss by Dr. Jared Skowron is an easy how
to guide. The only thing I can think of
that he missed from Allergies to Weight Loss is Xenophobia. But, maybe he's just saving that for his next
best seller.
Pick one up today! It's available in paperback and Kindle. Then your friends will start coming to you because you're the cool, crunchy mom that knows what feverfew is and you didn't even go to Hogwarts.

Album Notes
Come 2005, the evidence showed that '90s rock radio darlings Bush had been put into carbon freeze -- the group hadn't released a new album since 2001's Golden State, while leader Gavin Rossdale had launched a new group, Institute. So the time would be right for a career-spanning "best of" set, correct? Not quite. You do get the group's hits on the 2005 double-disc Zen X Four, but only as videos on the set's DVD portion (which also includes some behind-the-scenes footage). The audio portion, on the other hand, collects live and acoustic versions of most of the group's best-known early tracks. However, since these are not the versions that ruled MTV during the mid- to late '90s, it cannot be considered a true set of hits. From the perspective of longtime fans looking for the uncommon, Zen X Four works much better. After all, several of the tracks are included more than once, and only hardcore fans will be interested in the "acoustic versions" (which aren't really acoustic -- the volume on their Marshall stacks is just lowered a bit). But one thing's for certain, Rossdale certainly has his Cobain-isms down pat on such tracks as "Everything Zen" and "Machinehead." ~ Greg Prato

Going to Nevada: Rubio gathers endorsements, Cruz plays defense
Elko, Nevada — Marco Rubio amassed increasing support for his candidacy while Ted Cruz's campaign showed signs of struggle as Republican presidential candidates crisscrossed Nevada on Monday on the final day of campaigning ahead of the state's GOP caucuses.
Cruz told reporters Monday he has asked his campaign spokesman, Rick Tyler, to resign for tweeting a story that falsely alleged Rubio insulted the Bible.
"We are not a campaign that is going to question the faith of another candidate for president," he said, calling Tyler "a good man" and noting that he deleted the tweet once he discovered it was false.
Tyler did not return telephone, text or email messages left by The Associated Press seeking comment.
It's not the first time that Cruz's campaign has been accused by rivals of using questionable tactics. Cruz apologized to GOP hopeful Ben Carson earlier this month after his campaign promoted a news story suggesting that Carson was getting out of the race. Cruz's campaign has also acknowledged creating a website that used a computer program to create a fake picture of Rubio shaking hands with President Barack Obama.
Speaking during a campaign stop in Elko, Nevada, earlier Monday, Rubio criticized Cruz for the incident and asked whether Cruz would fire anyone involved.
"It's every single day something comes out of the Cruz campaign that's deceptive and untrue, and in this case goes after my faith," Rubio told reporters when asked about the incident. "I guess one of their spokespersons apologized, and I accept their apology."
Republican front-runner Donald Trump lashed out at Cruz over Twitter on Monday, saying that Cruz "has now apologized to Marco Rubio and Ben Carson for fraud and dirty tricks. No wonder he has lost Evangelical support!" He reiterated his calls for disqualifying Cruz because of "his fraudulent win in Iowa."
Trump's campaign manager Corey Lewandowski said Monday that the billionaire businessman has been seeking advice from former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani as he gradually expands his tight inner circle.
Meanwhile, establishment heavyweights continued to back Rubio, with many saying they see him as the candidate who can unite a disharmonious Republican Party. Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson and Utah Sen. Orrin Hatch were the latest to endorse Rubio. South Florida's three Cuban-American members of Congress also said that they shifted their support to Rubio, having previously supported for former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush's now defunct bid.
Former Sen. Bob Dole told ABC News on Monday that he too had been backing Bush, but he's now supporting Rubio because "he wants to grow the party as opposed to Cruz. I don't know what he wants to grow."
Since Friday, Rubio has added 12 new Congressional or gubernatorial endorsements, while Trump and Cruz have added none.
While five men officially remain in the race for the Republican nomination, House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy billed it as a two-man contest between Trump and Rubio. Speaking to MSNBC's "Morning Joe" Monday, McCarthy said Trump's victory and Rubio's second-place finish in Saturday's South Carolina primary dealt a blow to Cruz's strategy to win the nomination. The California congressman predicted voters in Florida, Rubio's home state, would determine whether Rubio continues or Trump easily rolls on to the nomination.
Cruz on Saturday characterized a two-man contest as well – between him and Trump. But Rubio, who campaigned in South Carolina alongside the state's GOP Gov. Nikki Haley, has continued to capitalize on the momentum from his second-place finish.
As the Associated Press reported:
With Jeb Bush gone from the race, Rubio was hoping to pick off past donors to the Bush campaign and looking to benefit as well from a cessation in the millions of dollars in negative ads run by the Bush campaign and its allies.
Rubio also suggested it was only a matter of time before Ohio Gov. John Kasich and retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson folded as well. He hinted it would be better to get that winnowing over with, saying, "the sooner we can coalesce, the better we're going to be as a party in general."
"It's going to happen one way or another," he said.
Not so fast, Governor Kasich countered. "We're getting big crowds everywhere we go," he insisted, listing Vermont, Massachusetts, and Virginia as places he can shine.
Across the country, Ohio Gov. John Kasich turned his attention to Virginia, which is among the dozen states voting on March 1.
Kasich, who finished second in New Hampshire's Republican primary, won the endorsement of Tom Ridge, a former Homeland Security secretary and Pennsylvania governor.
Ridge had supported Bush for president since early 2015 and campaigned with him in South Carolina. Bush quit the race Saturday after a disappointing finish in the Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina primaries.
Kasich's campaign says Ridge is signing on as a national co-chairman.
Democratic presidential hopefuls coming off a tight battle for Nevada kicked off the week on opposite ends of the country Monday. Hillary Clinton was fundraising in northern California, while Bernie Sanders held a rally in Massachusetts, another Super Tuesday state. South Carolina votes in the next Democratic primary on Saturday.
Riccardi reported from Las Vegas. Associated Press writers Vivian Salama in Washington, Scott Bauer in Madison, Wisconsin; David Eggert in Michigan, Andrew Demillo in Little Rock, Arkansas; and Alanna Durkin, Michael Blood and Matthew Barakat in Virginia contributed to this report.

Sexton back in the groove as Leinster run riot
Jonathan Sexton made a winning return as Leinster dominated Guinness PRO12 strugglers Zebre in a facile 70-6 bonus point victory.
Sexton's first match since Ireland's November defeat to New Zealand, following hamstring problems, went very much according to plan.
The fly-half converted first-half tries from Sean O'Brien, Hayden Triggs, Luke McGrath, Cian Healy and Rory O'Loughlin, leaving the Italians, who mustered two Edoardo Padovani penalties, trailing 35-6.
Sexton, who finished with 12 points, added the extras to Garry Ringrose's 47th-minute effort before his departure and in a rampant final 15 minutes, Leo Cullen's men added four more tries through O'Loughlin, who notched a hat-trick, man-of-the-match Ringrose and Jamie Heaslip on a rare appearance as a replacement.
Leinster quickly exploited the visitors' soft centre at the start of this 10-try thrashing, which was a PRO12 record win for the Irish province. Robbie Henshaw and Ringrose did some damage in midfield before McGrath scooped a long pass out to the right for O'Brien to run over unopposed in the fourth minute.
Sexton converted before his opposite number Padovani almost finished off a breakaway try from Lloyd Greeff's chip and chase. Unfortunately, the Italy international's contact with the bouncing ball was too heavy.
Normal service was resumed by the end of the first quarter as New Zealander Triggs powered over after an initial lineout maul had been stopped. Sexton converted for a 14-3 lead.
A combination of handling errors and scrappy penalties would have frustrated Cullen and his fellow coaches, O'Brien's latest infringement allowing Padovani to cut the gap to eight points.
However, Sexton's excellent restart was gobbled up by Devin Toner, Zebre switching off as they allowed Zane Kirchner to sprint through and pass for scrum-half McGrath to finish off by the posts.
The bonus-point score arrived as early as the 29th minute, prop Healy showing impressive strength to drive over from close range.
Lively winger O'Loughlin added his fifth try in as many games just before referee Dan Jones' half-time whistle, the 22-year-old racing up the left touchline after McGrath's snappy break from a late scrum.
Excellent work by Healy and James Tracy almost teed up Dan Leavy for a try in the left corner on the resumption, the score eventually coming when Ringrose struck from a few metres out having burst onto Sexton's short pass.
Amid a lull either side of the hour mark, young centre Ringrose continued to look sharp with ball in hand while also nailing some textbook tackles. Indeed, he provided the scoring passes for O'Loughlin's next two tries, the Academy starlet using his momentum in a tackle to twist over and complete his hat-trick in the 71st minute.
Zebre then lost replacement prop Guillermo Roan to the sin-bin for a tip tackle on Toner, and quick ball from a scrum allowed Ringrose to scamper in from close range.
There was still time for Heaslip to be freed up on the left wing for a final try, with young replacement Ross Byrne expertly landing all four of his conversion kicks to make it a perfect 10 for Leinster.

@TohruAdachi: Hah! I'm flattered! S'all good, I check this page like every hour or so during school to read your guys' replies, so I'm equally stalkerish.
@TohruAdachi: Ahahaha! It's fine man, don't worry about it.Yessss, I wanna see you use Kill Rush on a human.Somehow Yosuke sounds homophobic and homosexual at the same time.Queue Naoki, "MYYY SISTER IS DEAAAD!"You mean my scooter isn't serious business..?!Smooshes? Have you been watching Jersey Shore again?!I have like three girlfriends, speak for yourself.Can we not talk about things dripping from our bodies?Or we can just show them our superpowers. If that doesn't work, we can show them our weapons.He's going to bear it all and get charged for sexual harassment.Sounds like the type of emergency that Adachi should be investigating.Thaaaaat isn't creepy at all...Ahahah! AHAHAHAHAHA! Good for you, man.And then Adachi offered us his long, slippery meat from the supermarket.DON'T YOU CALL NANAKO A WHORE.Wha... what is this, a re-run?NEXT TIME: WE CRASH A BIKE BECAUSE WE DIDN'T PUT ANY EFFORT INTO THIS TEST!
The colours look better..? Huh, maybe it was just your TV or something. Well anyway, I'll be following this thread. Good luck!
I think I'm gonna go and replay Catherine again, thanks to this discussion. Such an amazing game.Yosuke's all psyched for sleeping with Kanji.Doesn't matter to Yosuke! Kanji, run! RUNNNN!Yes Yosuke, that's how water works.Oh crap, I can't remember...Then the VN mechanics save the day.Oh hey, nice to meet y-OHHHHHHH YOU IN SOME SERIOUS TROUBLE NOW, BOY.Well that was a waste of an entire night. Thanks.But I share all my hard answers with Yukiko...Oh man, Mr. Kondo reads minds.Me? Smart? That's the biggest lie since Persona 5.Wait, what? What are you even talking about?Oh. OHHHH HELL YEAH, OKINA CITY MOTHERFUCKER!Not the first time that I've heard that.NEXT TIME ON PERSONA 4: WE STOMP THE SHIT OUT OF A BIKER GANG.
@TohruAdachi said:@Jeric: I support them if the DVDs didn't cost so much money,on the other hand,already watched it,I'd give it 6/10 rating. And I totally hear you on relating to practically every character,the thing I love about Atlus,they can really relate to real life problems,and watching Catherine gameplay was super interesting,so that too.Heh, I actually could've bought the DVD as it was right in front of me at some point, but hey - once you go blu-ray, you never go... regular-ray. So I just couldn't. And I friggin' love Catherine. If you like puzzlers and you haven't played it yet, you totes should man.Though I'd never have the balls to play the game on Hard or finish all the challenges to get the, y'know, "special" cutscene. I've only ever finished Altar.
@TohruAdachi: I do sort of relate to Teddie too, though - his is a bit of a fantastical example if looked at with a literal sense, but if you think about it, it's really just about the sort of pessimism that can hit a person if they live optimistically for so long. His Shadow experience was sort of relative to a feeling that someone has when they start to think, "I'm really not all that great." Of course - like Teddie does, we all do have valuable qualities that help us recover from that sort of thing. So I bet his situation relates to more people than we think. In a way, I can relate to pretty much all of them - at least in different points in my life - just not to such extremities. They really did a great job of making realistic, human characters.And I'd totally stream the anime, but nawww bro, gotta support them! Also I have a feeling that my brother ordered in the blu-ray for me for Christmas. So let's hope that's true.
@TohruAdachi said:@Jeric: I have to agree with you on Yukiko,I think she had one of the dumbest darkest secrets. The best in my opinion Brosuke."Yeah, I guess I do kind of hate everything."The sad part was -- after seeing his revelation in The Animation (which I have not been keeping up with since I can't find the friggin' Volume 1 Blu-Ray anywhere in the city and I refuse to stream it in anything less than the best quality), I realized that I relate to his Shadow the most. Deep.
@selfconfessedcynic Oh man - I'll leave that up to the readers' imaginationsI have this problem every day, brother.Oh I remember it alright.
@TohruAdachi: Yeahhh I probably won't use any more time bumping up the crops. Since I'm not trying to do a perfect, one-day-save run, the SP veggies aren't really important (I haven't even used the ones I already have). The Hiranya are sort of unnecessary and the chest keys are easy to get.Anyway, here's today's update. Also, these are all being uploaded straight to GiantBomb - do they have a file limit? Because I'm pushing 300ish pictures and, even though there's a Quest for 1000 uploads, I can't help but think that there's some sort of limit.Today's update's mostly about Kanji, and it's littered in homophobic humour. As a disclaimer, I have nothing against guys who like other guys. Blargh.I dunno man, I've been sleeping just fine.It's okay, man - I wanted to see Naoto again, too. Errr, because I know she's female already. Agh that sounded homosexual. AGH THIS SOUNDS HOMOPHOBIC.Hey, hey! YOU DON'T KNOW THATSexism, ho! Also, I'LL TAKE A SCREENSHOT OF ANY DAMN SCREEN I WANT.Yeah that'll end well. You either like girls or you like dudes, dude.SO YOU LIKE TO PLAY CASTLEVANIA!?Awww someone hug him. Err, Yosuke, you go hug him.You ARE a pretty cool guy. Just, y'know walk in front of me on the way down.Yosuke's all curious about Kanji's size.Shadow Kanji knew about ALL the times people came.We ain't playin' at all! This is some serious shit here.Hmm - can you... beat things with a folding chair to the point of complete disintegration?Wait, Yukiko - THE special headquarters, or OUR special headquarters..?One of my favourite lines in the game. So glad they gave Vincent equally awesome lines in Catherine (Fucking blocks, I'm gonna climb the shit outta you!"If you listen carefully enough, you can HEAR his manhood.
@selfconfessedcynic: Ay thanks man. I try.Now for today's post...Why do you make so many trips to and from the NOT SOLVING MURDERS DEPARTMENT?!Nanako don't mess around. This lady is friggin' fierce.So many times I've said something along these lines. It's okay, Ryotaro-san-senpai-sensei-sama. At least you're a cool detective and not just a lazy high school student who doesn't deserve to be loved.This is pretty much coming out of my mouth, after that last comment.Because apparently this vegetable thing takes until midnight. Great, thanks to Kanji, I can't increase the crop size.Yes, you've already saved Kanji. Are you happy now?! Now that we'll have LESS Soul Tomatoes and we'll have to pay that stupid fox even MORE of all our yens?OK, I guess I'm glad I didn't go out to vegetable-ize my inventory.The Tanaka theme song is going to give us AIDsI don't know why this option is even here. Maybe he doesn't eat food because HE FEEDS UPON THE SOULS OF HIS VICTIMS."And then we'll crush the killer and send him to hell!"Psssh, don't sell yourself short, man. You don't go for knockouts, you go straight for the kill!GRANDMADACHI!"I keep telling them about how my grandson is a real lady killer!"What, you don't like free food? Your stomach must be killing you...We could've grown more if the FUCKING MIDNIGHT CHANNEL didn't prevent from improving the FUCKING CROPS!

Here, you can let out your anger, duel with friends, and train for greatness.
Here, you will learn the art of combat both with and without weapons.
Here, there are only 3 rules:
•Absolutely NO killing or severing limbs
•Ignorance of basic protocols will be met with an adequate response
•Should you face difficulties, I am open to giving private lessons and individual attention. If you need help, ask
Syllabus for Year 1:
• Week 1: Get to know your strengths
• Week 2: Training according to strengths
• Week 3: Throwing weapons
• Week 4: Handheld weapons
• Week 5: Explosives
• Week 6: Kenpo arts (Empty hands)
• Week 7: Firearms
• Week 8: Duelling week
• Week 9: Finals (Intensive Individual Training)
Here is the plan for your years here at camp.
(please keep in mind that this may change over time, but this is as I plan it will go)
•Year 1: An introduction and kind of feeling out what it is like to fight
•Year 2: Mostly Individual training with a wide array of weapons as well as no weapon combat
•Year 3: More training with sharp weapons and more actual "destruction" (inanimate targets of course)
•Year 4: Mostly controlled dueling and one-on one combat
•Year 5: Focus on Battle in large numbers
•Year 6: In-depth techniques in all weapons
•Year 7: Army strategy
•Year 8: Team training
•Year 9: Disabled training (blindfolded or you are not allowed to use your right arm or something to that effect)
Should you have any questions or wish to tell me something, you can contact me at email@example.com
Good luck to all students!

A discussion on square crops got me into a geometric frame of mind, recalling the forms of architecture
built around a shared measurement. This composition came out of that; loosely, a circle of radius X, set in a square
field 3X by 3X, above a rectangle of 1X by 3X. It is actually the bowl of a martini glass (viewed into the bowl)
on the blue drape of the tent, the drape's edge ending on the tabletop where the spotlights cast shadows and light.

The Justice Department has filed a lawsuit against Alabama's new controversial immigration law, essentially fighting Alabama on grounds similar to its legal battle with Arizona over that state's controversial law.
In both cases, the Justice Department argues that the states are overstepping their authority by wading into something that is a strictly federal responsibility: immigration enforcement.
Gov. Robert Bentley signed the Alabama law in June, but it's not set to take effect until Sept. 1. The law makes it a crime to be an undocumented immigrant in Alabama and allows law enforcement to detain individuals they have a "reasonable suspicion" of being in the country illegally. The law also makes it illegal to give undocumented immigrants rides and requires school districts to check on the immigration status of students who enroll.

In 2002, the HyShot supersonic flight experiment was successfully launched and allowed to access experimental flight data for supersonic combustion. Ground based testing performed in the High Enthalpy Shock Tunnel (HEG) of the German Aerospace Center (DLR) allowed to reproduce the Mach 7.8 flight conditions. The present numerical work focuses on the computation of the experiments in HEG considering flows with and without combustion and fuel injection. Further, variations of the equivalence ratio and the resulting influence on the flow topology are studied.

Experience Warrior from the eyes of one of the most loved characters in Seventeen…
The Order of the Three Spears. Founded at the turn of the ninth century by the Lotus-Born Second Buddha and inspired by the most powerful immortal warrior who ever lived, this secret buddhist society has kept the existence of immortals hidden from ordinary humans and maintained peace between the races for twelve hundred years.
When news of an ancient enemy reaches them from the West, the Order sends its best and most unorthodox field agent to investigate.
In the course of his mission, Brother Yonten crosses paths with an immortal operative also tasked with hunting the Order's deadly opponent. The astounding truths he uncovers will determine not just his own fate, but that of the immortal societies and the entire human race.
The Warrior Monk is a short story set in AD Starrling's award-winning action thriller series Seventeen

Beautiful pics Sam.
Between your HOT little trail and your lovely big nuts I am SO fucking boned.......
Oh dude, great pics, nice body and nice to see soft and hard dick! Good job!
Wonderful pics Sam. You certainly know how to please us here!! (*8*)
Fantastic pix again Sam! Why someone isn't sucking you 24 hrs a day is beyond me.
It sure shows how great Italy effected you, Sam. What a beautiful set of pics...from start to finish... Thanks!
Sam, you must travel abroad more often!
Attachment 920725
What can I say? As always, I'm impressed!
I really like your pics, you are hoot! :) Can u post some more pics of your dick when its soft?:) And maybe some pics of ure feet if u are ok with that ;)
Haha! :D
Well, actually I'm travelling a lot. A LOT. Since I was about six months old my parents used to take me almost everywhere. The pics from my very first post where taken in Bali, Indonesia. So, there's always been a lot of moving around the globe, not only for vacation purposes but for job/work as well.
I tell you something: I'm going on a relaxing, sunny cruise ship tour to the Caribbean in March/April. I just can't wait to get a nice tan, haha. ;)
WOW you are so hot!
Sam! :wave:
I sincerely hope you Truly appreciate what an Incredibly LUCKY Guy you are! (!) (!w!)
There is NO doubt that you owe your parents, and DNA pool, a tremendous debt of Gratitude! (As do WE, too!) :=D: ..|
And, I'm not just talking about that Awesomely HOT Body that you've gotten to inhabit, but also all of the Experiences, and Adventures, that they've provided you! :hurray: :biggrin:
One of my (minor) regrets is that I didn't really know how fortunate I was, at the time. And, YOU have me beat, hands down! \:/
Enjoy your Life to it's Fullest, Young Bud! (group)
(And that includes taking Many, MANY, more pics of YOU! :drool: :-< )
Keep smilin'!! :kiss: (*8*)
Chaz :luv:
OMG!!! I just noticed... is that cum on your chest???
I'm still very curious what your girlfriend thought of your posted pictures. What led you to start taking nude pictures and what prompted you to give it a go after your girlfriend's suggestion?
Damn dude your dick is huge! I'm actually a little jealous. :P
She's still okay with it. She checks this site here (my thread) once in a while and loves to read your comments. Right now I've got a lot of stuff to do for college and she as well, so there isn't that much "spice" right now. But we a have a good fuck every now and then. ;)
Just click to the beginning of this thread. There's my "statement" ;)
I can't get over how amazing your body is!!
Hi Chaz!
I just read your entry and I had to reply to it. Thanks a damn lot for your kind words.
Yeah, you're right I owe my parents a lot. They support me whatever I do or whatever I want to achieve.
Sometimes it is hard not to get used to the possibilities andvantages you have and to ground yourself and think about others that a have much less than you. But I think that I'm good a that and friends keep me grounded.
I enjoy life, I promise you I do!
Thanks again man, Sam :-)
Sam, you have the hottest bod here on JUB and your package is simply to die for. Keep the updates coming through - I can say with all my heart that we are ALL enjoying them. Thanks soooo much!!!!
And, THAT, my Young Friend, is the Most important thing, no matter your circumstances! (!) (!w!)
To the best of your abilities, Cherish those around you. Take full measure of your surroundings, wherever that may be. And, take Pleasure in being YOU! \:/ ..|
Staying 'grounded' is critical, too. Butt, also realizing how Awesome being YOU is will have a positive impact on Everyone you come in contact with! (Like all of "Us", for instance!) (group)
Keep smilin'!! :kiss: (*8*)
Chaz :luv:
Hey guys! I know it's been a while...
And I just noted how many 19 year olds started posting in the 'showcase' the few weeks I've not been here. I guess that's great for you, eh!? ;) (!) Haha. :D
Anyways... telling you I've been busy wouldn't be anything new, but that's just how it is. :)
I'm getting ready for the written exams at uni and man... it's so much stuff to stuff into your brain... btw (because many of you keep asking): I've been in the UK for the last year, after summer I went back to Germany and continued my study here.
No recent pic today, that's an old one from Bali:
Attachment 927607
Gonna post some new stuff soon, stay tuned,
Sam :D
Thank you for the updates Sam. Hearing from you is always a pleasure. And seeing you is always exciting! Study hard and good luck on your exams!!!
Sam -
Lookin' HOT as ever!!!
Hey Sam, have you been doing some "manscaping" downstairs as you look to have less pubes in the pic above than some of the others? The tan line is very obvious.

Attachment 928495
Sam :biggrin:
Hi man!
Yeah, less pubes than in most of the other pics, that's true. My girl and me were pretty busy in Bali so we had more than enough time and fun to "manscape" ;)
Just browse through the thread, I bet there are some pics where I ahve less pubes. I think I'm gonna shave some time soon. Haven't done that in a good while... (2 or 3 months just little trimming)
hot black trunks!!
ABSolutely the quickest update ever ;)
Just back from the gym and now lying in bed, getting enough rest for the next exam tomorrow.
Talk to you soon guys!
^ Pity someone isn't licking up and down your hot trail....... :p :p ........not that your nips should suffer from lack of attention........ (!)
Great looking pic Sam.
That'd be the fastest replies I ever got seven2 and Billy. Thanks guys! :D
I truly appreciate all your comments and thoughts and I enjoy talking to all of you. :-)
Now I'll really get some sleep. I promise... you know I'm good guy ... ;)
It is always a pleasure to see you, Sam! :D

What our Customers Say about our Service |
"To all the Customer service team at Gift Basket
A BIG THANK YOU ! for making the day of my mom . I have called her just now and she has received both the bouquet of flowers as well as the Gift Basket this afternoon.
This is the 1st time I am using the service of Gift Basket and your professionalism and great Customer service support has impressed me GOOD JOB Ladies ! I definitely come back more for your services.
Thank you for always being so responsive, polite and helpful..it was our error for indicating the wrong address and you have managed to assist me to re-route the delivery and ensuring my mom received the gift.
We are sorry for causing any inconvenience at your end. A big thank you again to all who have been following and responding to me.
Thanks: we will definitely come back for more of your services
Mrs Ling Walters" Mrs Ling Walters - Singapore - Sep 24, 2013 "I am so impressed with the service. Was punctual and they did everything they could to make it on time. They even went out of their way when the phone number was not working to try other means to contact the recipient. Will always use this company for my international and local gifts. I strongly recommend this company to everyone I know that is looking for gift delivery or any other service they provide." Ben Mason - New York, NY - Jan 7, 2013 "My parents live in Israel. My dad did not feel well recently so I decided to send him a gift basket. It was a bit tricky finding a company that delivers to Israel, as I did not want to send just flowers and chocolates. I recently had a bad experience on Valentine's day with another service my boyfriend used, so I took care to do ample research on the net. I found giftbasketoverseas.com and chose the luxury wine and cheese basket. They were so professional and called me within a few hours to verify that I indeed put in the order. My parents got the basket right on time, and were basically knocked off their feet by it's beauty and luxury. So worth it! I will always use this company for future orders. It's so important when it's a gift for you loved ones! Highly recommend this experience for anyone who want to send a gift basket. The variety is also amazing with regards to options on their website. " Oranit - USA - Mar 11, 2010 "I had some problems with the delivery but not because of the company or your service: the phone of my grandmother was not working but I sincerely appreciate doing your very best to deliver on Saturday, 8pm and very prompt communication during the process. Thank you very much for such a great service that allows to reach the loved ones from overseas. I will certainly use your service again!

Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr. today announced that Wilfredo Pagan has been appointed as the borough's representative to the Panel for Educational Policy (PEP), which holds approval power over the actions of the New York City Department of Education.
"Wilfredo Pagan is a strong advocate for the children of the Bronx, and he will make us proud in his new role on the PEP. I look forward to working with Mr. Pagan to advance a strong agenda on education for the parents, children and families of the Bronx and the entire City," said Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr.
"Every child has a voice, and I am deeply honored to be able to represent that voice on behalf of parents, families and the Bronx community. I am thankful to Borough President Diaz for this opportunity, and I look forward to working with his office on the critical education issues that face our borough and our City," said Wilfredo Pagan.
Pagan, a resident of West Farms, was born on September 14, 1971, in the Bronx, where he has resided his entire life. He is the youngest of seven siblings, all of whom have graduated from the New York City public school system. He is the father of six children—four girls and two boys—each of whom have also attended New York City public schools. His three youngest are currently enrolled in the very school he has volunteered in for the last six years, P.S. 50/The Clara Barton Elementary School, also located in West Farms.
As the President of the parents' association at P.S. 50 and president of the District 12 President's Council, Mr. Pagan has represented the parent community in different educational forums that range from Chancellor's Parent Advisory Councils, public educational hearings, the Citywide Council on High Schools, educational space planning meetings and other activities.
Pagan replaces Monica Major, who currently serves as Borough President Diaz's director of education and youth policy.

She likewise said that there is a quick need to send a solid message in the public arena that attackers won't be excused and that they will be honored the death penalty for the terrible wrongdoing. "It is critical that Nirbhaya's attackers, as well as each individual who is conferring an assault, should be given a capital punishment. There should be an extremely solid message in the framework that we will no more endure assaults," she said.
She rebuked the framework for further defrauding ladies who face assault and said, "I had met Nirbhaya's mom as of late and she let me know that in spite of the way that Nirbhaya is dead, even now such embarrassing inquiries are being asked in court that it's verging on like I feel great that my girl is dead and she doesn't need to confront these mortifying inquiries in the matter of how was she touched, did she really go into… she needed to get assaulted?
It is exceptionally pitiful this is going on. The courts need to take comprehension and promptly we have to make a move," Maliwal included. Vinay Sharma, one of the four convicts sentenced to death for the assault and murder of Nirbhaya in a moving transport in Delhi in December 2012, endeavored suicide by hanging himself on Wednesday in Tihar Jail.
He is admitted to the Deen Dayal Upadhyay Hospital, where he is as of now recuperating. His dad Hari Ram Sharma, additionally, asserted that there is some "scheme" and that his child could have never endeavored suicide. He asserted that it was a disappointment of the correctional facility organization and staff to give sufficient security to his child.
Police said Sharma seemed to have expended a few pills before utilizing a towel to hang himself. In March 2013, Ram Singh, another denounced for the situation, conferred suicide by hanging in his cell, uncovering the wretched condition of peace inside the Tihar Jail. Vinay, in 2013, had asserted that he was whipped by different detainees and had requested additional security.

Happy Easter!
Long Friday and peace in the house, baking Easter bread and my long-time-favourite, French lemon pie. Slow cooking on a slow day.
Slow Cooking - something I feel strongly about, and found a kindred spirit in a Swedish author Lena Katarina Swanberg. |
I found her book Långsam mat och lugnare livet from Gothenburg, Sweden in an old-books-store Röda Ormen. |
Making Slow Food takes time but the rest is very simple. |
Good ingredients, wooden stove, cast iron pots and pans, wooden ladles, candle holders... |
And if you feel tired, you just make a cup and read the paper. Ps. My true servant from DDR, the orange wondermixer, almost 40 years old... |
No to-dos. The rest can wait. It was not me who decided I have to hurry. |
Light the candle, gather the dear near, enjoy. The sweet is good for the soul. |
Ps. the Easter bonfire of Rumar village is lit on the Pellas field at 7.30 p.m. tomorrow - take your own sausages & soda, wellies and warm to wear, wellcome!

We often talk about the ills caused by the horse moving on the forehand, and we dissect and analyze movement in an effort to understand.
The idea here isn't to cause guilt and doom and gloom; instead, we should learn all we can and take steps to avoid known problems.
What does being on the forehand really mean, from the horse's perspective? Here are a few thoughts:
1. Lack of balance.
First and foremost, from the moment we get on the horse's back, we are messing around with the horse's balance. Horses that are naturally balanced have to negotiate movement with the weight and (dis-) equilibrium of the rider. Horses that are naturally unbalanced have to negotiate gravity with not only their own tendencies toward unhealthy movement, but then also with the extra weight of the rider.
2. Heavy on the front feet.
Have you ever heard a horse banging his feet heavily down on the arena footing? If you've ever wondered if that foot pounding might hurt the horse, you'd be right.
3. Pain in the hooves, joints and tendons of the front feet.
Travel long enough on the forehand, and you will create a perfect recipe for eventual lameness. The front legs were not designed to carry most of the horse and rider's weight for extended periods of time.
4. Hollow-backed.
A horse that is heavy on the front end often has to compensate in other parts of his body. So don't be surprised to discover that the horse has to drop his back, or become more "sway-backed." By hollowing out the "bridge" that carries the rider, the horse is counterbalancing the weight that is on the front end. This way, he doesn't actually fall head-first to the ground.
5. Braced neck to counteract gravity.
Similar to having to drop the back, the horse sometimes has to drop the base of his neck and lift his head. This will help him keep going although there is a lot of weight on the front end.
6. Restricted hind-end action and ability.
When the neck is dropped and the back is hollow, the hind end simply cannot support the body. There is no room for the legs to reach forward and under the body, which is where they need to be to receive the bulk of the weight.
7. Short strides.
The strides shorten because the horse becomes more earth-bound. In order to maintain the forehand balance, the horse has to scramble to keep from falling forward. Both the front and hind legs shorten in stride and often speed up in tempo.
8. Trips and stumbles.
Although we like to blame trips and stumbles on external problems such as foot trims, footing and tack, if you watch and analyze carefully, you might notice that the way of going of the horse is often responsible for his regular missteps and occasional falls to the knees.
9. Reins pulling on the mouth.
The rider often feels the imbalance (although might not know who or how it is being caused) and therefore to help correct that awkward feeling, will take up the reins in an effort to hold himself up in the saddle.
10. Body-wide tension.
You know the horse that seems forever off but you can't tell exactly what is wrong? It might be caused by the tension in the muscles. A horse that is heavy on the forehand needs to become tense in order to counteract the balance on the front end.
11. Short and shallow breath.
When the horse is tight and tense in the body, he has more trouble breathing. If you can hear deep, strong breaths, and occasional long-winded, body-shaking snorts, then you know you are on your way to allowing the horse to move comfortably underneath you.
12. Mental insecurities.
Unbalanced movement often causes mental strife as well. Horses that have to regularly counteract gravity tend to lose confidence in their riders and sometimes display irritated behaviors such as tail-swishes, pinned ears, bucks and kicks.
If this list makes you cringe, and think that riding on the forehand is the root of all evil, you are beginning to see the point.
There's no two ways about it: being ridden on the forehand causes the horse much difficulty and possibly even physical harm. Always remember that the horse has no choice in the decisions we make as riders.
Therefore, it falls to us - the people who want to enjoy the amazing experience of riding horses - to continually work on our education, improve our skills and regularly challenge ourselves to learn how we can not only NOT cause damage with our riding, but even improve the horse's physical and mental well-being through riding.
If you want some ideas on where to begin, check out the links below. But always, always, look to your own instructor to develop your riding skills and resolve your horse training questions.

Donaji & the Magical Poncho
This is the story of a fearless girl and her encounter with the wicked cold wind god
4.29 / 5.00 3,954 Views**holy--- holy crap i - i am getting a heart attack here... this cant be true, the FRONT PAGE!!
thx you guys! yesterday i thought I couldnt make it, but as i saw this blue dragon in the front page, i thought: "OMG!!" THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!**
Hi Guys, this is my third flash at all.
The second one was about Kid Icarus, trying to initiate you to the story of Kid Icarus.
There was also a "Tablet Scene" which was quite succesfull, I guess, because some of you liked it.
Thats why I created a Flash, with the same background as in that scene, and let Pit fight again.
But this time, not only against a bunch of Tablets, no...
This time, you'll see much more than just tablets ;)
Including 2 Special Guests, hope you can recognize them!
Have fun!
nice one
that was a pretty cool animation. i haven't seen anything based on Kid Icarus in a real long time, so that made this one fairly original and it was quite entertaining as well. i also notice that you have a kid icarus series in the makings with a Part I animation.... i'm going to have to check that out.
anyways, good job on this one.
i thank every single one, who appreciates my animation...
i put a huge weight on animation, and i think it requires a lot of time and patience to do an frame-by-frame animation. i believe that frame-by-frame is sth special, and thats why i dont like to use sprites, or "tweened" motion of bodyparts.
i wish i could read more reviews like yours, and i hope some will recognize the weight of animation in my, and even other flashes, because i respect every frame-by-frame animator (e.g. demon slayers diary)
A bit short.
Well, it was nicely done, but a bit short.
And in response to robro's comment, that was not a dragon. That was a snake.
no it was a dragon.
it is the boss of the second castle ^^
i just noticed
crap, this is about that game way back when right , by the way uv probibly herd this alot but his name is pit, if your going to do somthing make shour its right dude. this one was kinda boring though you could have done somthing with it , running through a forest or somthing. just so u know i think im being real nice cuase its an old game i liked.
