text: While erotic and mainstream gay story sites are showing up more these days, there still isn't enough good ones out there for my tastes. If you're always on the search for good writing, Gay Authors could be a great place to hang out as they offer links to some of the best gay penning on the net. The best way to get access to all this great writing is to sign up at the Forum. Linkable to your left. From there you can check out a whole slew of blogs and other resources. To get to the stories themselves, hit the "Stories" link in the main menu. After signing up I immediately started browsing the huge list of stories. It's interesting to note that some are for adults and some are for kids. However, each tale is labelled accordingly so there are no major suprises. Although surfing is isn't too bad on Gay Authors, at times you may get a bit confused. From what I can see a fair amount of different sites branch out from it. So it's best to just sign up in order to get a better perspective of what this resource features.

3-year-old girl caught in shooting crossfire dies in Stockton
Updated 5:30 pm, Monday, September 26, 2016
A 3-year-old girl riding in a car with her family Sunday in Stockton was killed when they drove into the middle of gunfire in a residential area, police said.
The shooting was reported just before 8:30 p.m. near Commerce and West Jefferson streets. No one in the car was the intended target of the shooting, said Officer Joe Silva, a Stockton police spokesman.
"They were just driving down the street when they encountered gunfire," he said. "Once they realized the girl had been shot, they rushed her to a nearby hospital."
Doctors pronounced the toddler dead at the hospital, police said. The girl's name was not immediately released.
Homicide investigators continued to canvass the neighborhood Monday for evidence and witnesses, Silva said. Police are looking for a vehicle of interest in the incident that they described as a black or dark-colored Chevrolet Monte Carlo or Chevrolet Camaro with tinted windows.
"Anytime there's a loss of life, it's a tragedy," he said. "But when it involves a little girl, that hits all of us hard. What happened on that street last night was a senseless act of violence committed by cowards with guns."
Police urged anyone with information on the shooting to contact investigators at (209) 937-8323. Crime Stoppers, which is offering a $10,000 reward in the case, can be reached at (209) 946-0600.

Tiramisù is a type of food, a dessert made by Humans. Hikaru Sulu described it as "a disgustingly rich dessert made with ladyfingers, espresso, mascarpone cheese, and rum."
Nyota Uhura, Pavel Chekov and Sulu, who were being hunted by assassins, stowed away aboard the partially-disassembled USS Enterprise and tried to coax edible food out of an unfinished food synthesizer. Although none of the meal plates came out right, the machine offered them a fine tiramisù. (TOS novel: Traitor Winds)

How simple to make a SIMPLE front page?
I am considering an e-commerce website for my small business, built with WordPress.
I have NO experience with WordPress; have only ever used Dreamweaver, which is very "from scratch." I am worried that WordPress will be more complicated to customize?
Basically, I need it to have lots of pages, product photos, a shopping cart, and, lastly, a blog component. I don't want the website to have a blog feel at all, EXCEPT on the blog page itself. So, main page: a basic intro photo, links across the top to all the pages of the site, and small description down below to introduce the site.
I want to design my own graphics, link buttons, etc in Illustrator, and customize the website layout exactly how I want.
How hard is it to do this on WordPress, as opposed to, say, Dreamweaver?
Thanks for any advice!

Where: Petco Park
Did you know: Before Saturday's game at Petco Park, former Padres closer Trevor Hoffman was inducted into the team's Hall of Fame. Hoffman is currently a roving pitching instructor in the Padres' farm system. He is the ninth member of the Padres Hall of Fame, joining Ray Kroc, Buzzie Bavasi, Nate Colbert, Jerry Coleman, Tony Gwynn, Dick Williams, Dave Winfield and Randy Jones.
The Dodgers will activate Ryu from the DL today in order to start him against the Padres. Ryu has been on the DL for two weeks because of a strained gluteal muscle in his right side. Before going on the DL, Ryu had a 2.33 ERA in his previous six starts with the Dodgers winning five of those six games. He has dominated the Padres during his first two big-league seasons, holding to just two runs on 17 hits in 251/3 innings over four starts.
Vs. Padres: 3-0, 0.71 ERA
At Petco Park: 1-0, 0.69 ERA
Loves to face: Rene Rivera, 0 for 7, 2 strikeouts
Hates to face: Tommy Medica, 2 for 5 (.400), 1 double
The former Dodger entered August with a 5.22 ERA but has pitched well this month. In his past five starts, he is 3-1 with a 2.43 ERA, holding opponents to two runs or fewer in four of those starts and four hits or less three times. Since starting the season 2-8 with a 5.79 ERA in his first 14 starts, Stults has made some adjustments in his delivery. Padres pitching coach Darren Balsley suggested a higher leg kick to create more momentum towards the plate. The change has resulted in a better second half for Stults.
Vs. Dodgers: 2-4, 3.70 ERA
At Petco Park: 14-10, 3.49 ERA
Loves to face: Andre Ethier, 2 for 15 (.133), 2 strikeouts
Hates to face: Darwin Barney, 6 for 14 (.429), 4 doubles, 1 home run

My wife and I and my brother-in-law and sister-in-law stayed at Pedro's apartment for 9 days recently, and we loved this apartment ! Unfortunately we did not get to meet Pedro, as he was in New York on business, but I did speak to him before and during our visit and he was very accommodating each time I spoke to him. Maribel was at the apartment to greet us when we arrived and she was also available for anything that we might require during our stay. Pedro and Maribel are very nice people to deal with and they really do make you feel at home right away. The area is very nice and very safe, the property is beautiful and I would highly recommend this apartment to anyone visiting this area of Puerto Rico. We all had a wonderful vacation at Pedro's Paradise ! Pedro, the only thing I will mention is that you might want to replace the lock for the slider doors to the apartment because the lock / door was a bit challenging at times - but - with some patience, we were able to make it all work. Thanks for the great hospitality Pedro and if we are ever back in Puerto Rico - we would love to meet you and to stay at your place again !

I stayed at this beautiful house and it was just what the doctor ordered! The house was amazing, the pool was beautiful. We had privacy, but yet didn't feel closed off from the rest of the town.
Pete the home owner was gracious and very accommodating to not only myself, but the guests I had come to visit! I would recommend this home to anyone visiting Puerto Rico, and I will definitely be staying there again!
excellent This house was fully equipped and clean My family stay there in the month of april 2011 and enjoyed with it. The owner is a very cooperative and friendly.We want to go back there every time that we cant. WIFI at our disposal and air conditioning in perfect conditions
Just got back from my stay here. I never leave reviews anywhere, but this location and owner definitely deserved getting an excellent review! This is my first time renting an home for vacation instead of going the hotel route. I was nervous because of the many scams out there, but this is not it. The home is exactly as pictured and everything is as described. We happened to be in Isabela during Tropical Storm/Hurricane Irene and endured the storm in this home. The owner Pedro was super attentive and even brought us DVD's to keep us sane. He was always available and hospitable when we needed him and was easy going. He was nice enough to give 2 of my stranded guests a ride into town. I almost choked them, but he was super cool about it :-) Thank you Peter, you are salt of the earth.
The pool is a HUGE plus...We definitely appreciated this perk! Clean and inviting :-)
Oh, beware of the amazing bakery up the street! You will be addicted after one look. Great neighborhood, good spot for visiting various areas in northwest PR. Would definitely stay here again!
I stayed here with my family July 2011.
house is located in great area, very quiet and private, nice breeze all day long, AC's work great.
has a great pool and back yard, had a great time at family gathering.
Pete (owner) made sure we felt right at home.
thanks Pete for all your help.

Game 17: January 18, 2007
USC (13-5, 3-2 Pac-10) vs. Arizona (13-3, 4-2 Pac-10)
Arena: Galen Center
Capacity: 10,258
It's never easy to lose a game at the buzzer but losing one to your rival makes the taste in your mouth extra bitter. USC will look to erase the memories of last Saturday with a victory tonight over visiting Arizona.
The Trojans are led by Gabriel Pruitt, Nick Young and the ever improving Lodrick Stewart on the perimeter. On the inside, the play of freshman Taj Gibson has been a pleasant surprise this early in his career.
Gibson will most likely get the start tonight at center and will be called upon to use his athleticism and quickness to contain Arizona's versatile center, Ivan Radenovic, who can score outside just as efficiently as he can score inside.
For Arizona, the challenge is even more difficult as the Wildcats will look to stay in contention for a conference title by winning games in Los Angeles – easily the most difficult road trip in the Pac-10 this season. The Wildcats follow up tonight's game with a short trip across town to Pauley Pavilion where the UCLA Bruins lie in wait.
Arizona can't afford to look ahead though as the men of Troy are eager to get another shot and knocking down a ranked opponent. USC is 3-2 against Top 25 teams thus far.
The always heated game between the Trojans and the Wildcats when played in Los Angeles just got a little hotter in recent days as rumors have surfaced that USC's ticket office has been attempting to prevent Arizona fans from gobbling up remaining seats. Rumor or not, it was enough to get the attention of Arizona's coaching staff which means it has most likely found the ears of Wildcats players.
The game, as always, should be a great one. Last year USC won 77-70 in the nearby Sports Arena. How will tonight's game fair? Keep reading and find out how I think things will play out:
Arizona is missing the "ense" in offense lately and has been just plain "off." The ebb and flow they displayed during their 12-game winning streak has not been there in the last three games. Do everything freshman Budinger admittedly is a bit tired in his first season at the D-I level, McClellan has been inconsistent from the perimeter of late, Shakur has had one too many turnovers of late because the team just isn't clicking, and Radenovic, at times, has been way to hesitant. Still, the Wildcats are averaging over 84 points per game and shooting an impressive 51.2 percent of their shots which is good enough for sixth in the country. Fortunately for the Wildcats all these problems are easily correctible as most have to do with getting their timing back. Unfortunately, the learning curve must be a short one because USC's defense allows offenses little room for error as the Trojans are holding opponents to a woeful 35.2 percent which is good enough for second in the country.
USC has three players averaging more than 10 points a game. The good news for the Trojans is that one player is a guard (Stewart), another is a forward (Young) and the last is their center (Gibson). That's nice balance. They are also getting steady production from Pruitt whose now back from early season suspension and younger players such as Lewis and Hackett. Hackett is a tough and gritty point guard who frees up Stewart to do his thing at his more natural two spot. As a result, Stewart has seen his point production from the perimeter go up (14.2 PPG), which has freed USC's slashing forwards to attack the basket more. It has also allowed Gibson, a natural back-to-the-basket post player, to operate down low against few double teams.
Arizona is due to break out of their slump and tonight could be the night. It may not be pretty like the Washington game but I expect the Wildcats to play much more aggressively in an effort to match USC's defensive intensity. If they do, expect players like Williams and Budinger to get to the basket as Arizona will use Radenovic to draw Gibson and Wilkinson away from the basket. Conversely, if they come out soft it will undoubtedly be a long night for Arizona. Hackett will try and fluster Shakur but I'll be shocked if he's successful. Shakur looks like he's on a mission right now and although Arizona's offense has dropped a step in recent weeks it's surely night because of Shakur. The senior guard repeatedly finds open teammates who are in a position to score. Right now the open shots aren't falling. If McClellan and Radenovic can hit a few early expect Arizona to look much smoother on offense than they have in games against Wazzu, Oregon State and Oregon.
I have defended Arizona's defense all season but truth be told, the effort just hasn't been there in the past four games. Arizona has used a variety of zone defenses to confuse opponents all season and it has mostly worked. However, against Wazzu and Oregon, the Cougars and Ducks were patient enough to distribute the ball long enough to free up their very good spot shooters. Oregon made 15 of 30 three point field goals against Arizona in a two point win. If just one of those rims out, Arizona gets the victory. While I don't think USC will be as patient as either of these two teams I do think that the Trojans have enough perimeter scorers (Steward, Young, Pruitt) to make the Wildcats pay for not closing out on shooters.
I've seen several of USC's games this year and they're just nasty on defense. I thought Wazzu looked tough but their intensity pales in comparison to the defensive effort the Trojans put forth night in and night out. If Arizona expects to score, they will certainly have to do so by going over and through the Trojans because very few baskets will come easily. What oftentimes gets overlooked by fans watching NBA games is just how good NBA players are on defense. Sure, they do nothing for three and half quarters but when an NBA team needs a stop in a crucial game situation watch how effective the pro teams rotate and provide support. I mention this because Tim Floyd coached in the NBA and although his stint was nothing to write home about he proved one thing – he can coach defense on any level.
USC will not be afraid to go man against the Wildcats. USC is almost as tall and long as Arizona is at all five starting spots and is as quick if not quicker. The Trojans will definitely mix in some zone and may stick with it if Arizona remains cold from the perimeter. I do expect to see Arizona get after it much more tonight than in their last four games and I do expect them to be effective. Their zone defenses will provide constant support down low for Radenovic in defending Gibson and a more fleet of foot Budinger should be a bit more active in closing out on the perimeter. Regardless, holding teams to 35.2 percent shooting for the season is nothing to bat an eye at so USC gets the edge here.
Arizona is doing a fine job on the boards despite their scoring woes. Williams has seriously stepped up his play in all statistical categories, but especially rebounding. He had 12 boards against Oregon and is now averaging a 7.4 per game. Although Radenovic has been slumping in point production, his rebounding has also increased. He had 13 rebounds against the Ducks and for the season he's now averaging 7.9 per game. The small problem is that Shakur, Budinger and McClellan have all taken a step backward in this category and without the steady play of Brielmaier off the bench Arizona is getting no consistent inside presence from their reserves. Tonight reserve forward Hill may find himself on the floor in an environment that is more suited for his game. The Trojans are solid on defense but do play a bit on the edge, unlike the more disciplined Cougars and the more experienced Ducks. This may give him a chance to cut loose a bit and just be aggressive.
Gibson is clearly the chairman of the boards when it comes to rebounding for USC. The freshman is averaging 9.2 per game and is doing so with a ferociousness that is very appealing to a defensive-minded coach such as Floyd. USC does not get much support from any other player but as a team they are effective. One reason opponents' field goal shooting percentage is so low is that USC just doesn't give teams many second chance points.
Tonight's game should be interesting in that USC is a very good defensive rebounding team while Arizona is a better than average offensive rebounding team. If the Trojans can keep Arizona off the offensive boards, they may be able to limit Arizona's possessions and keep this game in the low 60s. USC also has a pretty effective early offense that they'll employ if they determine that their opponent is not getting back on defense. Arizona struggled in their transition defense against Oregon and this could be an area of weakness that USC can exploit if the Wildcats have yet to see the error of their ways.
On paper it would appear that USC will look to slow this game down while Arizona will try to do everything in their power to speed the game up. In reality, it's just the opposite.
This season, the reason Arizona is scoring so many points is because they are running their offense as effective as ever. The result is that they are getting very good looks at the basket and unlike in years past, this year they have the players to make those shots whether they're in the lane or behind the arc.
Hence, Arizona is not afraid of teams who want to play in the half court.
USC on the other hand thrives on anarchy. They are looking to disrupt the flow of the game every time they step on the floor. They are explosive and quick, but are just a bit too young right now to effectively and consistently score against an opponents set defense.
Tonight, if Arizona is taking quick shots they'll be playing right into USC's hands. Similarly, if USC tries to slow things down and bait the Wildcats into a possession game whether they know it or not, they'll be playing into the hands of the more experienced team who is looking for structure in their offensive sets to return them to their usually efficient ways.
While I like USC, I do think Arizona's experience will carry them through what will be their most difficult road game to date this season.

Truck driver booked for selling tyres worth ` 12 lakh
The Kalamboli police have booked a truck driver for allegedly selling tyres worth Rs 12 lakh he was transporting from Madurai and then ran away leaving behind the vehicle in their area.
According to the police, the suspect transported the tyres from Tamil Nadul to deliver to a shop in Kalamboli.
However, instead of delivering them to the shop he sold the tyres to some other people and then went into hiding. He is yet to be arrested.
His employer approached the police when the tyres were not delivered to the shop even after nine days.
"The suspect left Madurai on January 7. However, he did not reach the shop in Kalamboli even after nine days. His employer then enquired the matter and realised that shop did not receive the tyres till January 16," said a police officer from Kalamboli police station.
"He then approached us. We later found the abandoned truck at a truck terminal in our area," he added.
"We have registered a first information report (FIR) under sections 407 (criminal breach of trust by carrier) of the Indian Penal Code ( IPC) against the driver. We have no idea whether he sold the tyres in Navi Mumbai or somewhere else. We are now investigating the matter and hope to arrest the driver soon," he added. THE POLICE SAID THE SUSPECT TRANSPORTED THE TYRES FROM TAMIL NADUL TO DELIVER TO A SHOP IN KALAMBOLI. INSTEAD, HE SOLD THE TYRES

Chicago Cubs pitcher Carlos Silva cleared the air about his scuffle with third baseman Aramis Ramirez during a Wednesday's spring training game.
The Cubs, who have made nine errors in the first three games, made three more during a six-run first inning in Silva's start.
Silva returned to the dugout and made an off-handed remark about the team's defense, which Ramirez took personally. The two had to be separated in the dugout.
Silva claims he didn't know about the team's defensive problems.
"In spring training, it's a little harder because we don't watch every single game," Silva said. "I didn't even know my team had made that many errors either. That was a very hard inning, not only for my team or for my coaches, but for me. I was trying to do something here, and I gave up those two homers, and I came to the dugout, I tried to take it easy, to relax, to let it go.
"The only thing I said was 'we have to start making plays here.' He took it personally. I know it was my mistake. It was my fault because you don't say anything. But he took it personally and that's what happened. We argued in the dugout, and everything stayed there.
Silva may be feeling the heat. He is competing for a spot in the rotation, one that he doesn't think he has too.
"I told myself, I don't feel like that was me who was pitching that day," he said. "I was carrying so much on me. I was thinking, 'I've got to do good, I've got to show them I can pitch.' There was too much going on in my mind. What happened in that game, then my comment (in the dugout) and 'boom,' a big explosion."
Cubs manager Mike Quade said Silva was very professional in his apology.

Not too bad
I am not sure i would call this a real rockin remix of the Outset Isle theme from Zelda Wind Waker but i did think it was catchy with it's upbeat tempo and cheerful style though the quality didn't sound too good so some things need some tweaking but overall it was a nice remix.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
love it reminds me of just going to outset just to hear this song and chase pigs a ride around on the boat that sells stuff lol
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Good! Sounds nothing like Outset Island, though, cause Outset Island was supposed to be a peaceful place, but this doesn't interfere at all! They should make a game simillar to Wind Waker for the Wii and use this for the island you start off (almost nobody could tell the difference!) on!
Rated 5 / 5 stars
it sound like link runing around a island until night for no reason.
Rated 4 / 5 stars
Nice, although....just a bit fuzzy.
That's about the only thing I can find wrong with this, and a person could completely ignore it. You did great! I can just imagine it....Link hits a small pink pig, and shilloette of a big black pig shows up behind him. 0_0 ' He then gets chase around the island until nightfall. Heh heh heh....

The CD146 antigen, also known as melanoma cell adhesion molecule (MCAM) and MUC18, is an integral membrane glycoprotein belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily. CD146 contains the characteristic immunoglobulin-like domains (V-V-C2-C2-C2), a transmembrane region and a short cytoplasmic tail. The CD146 expression is detected in endothelial cells in vascular tissue throughout the body, and plays a role in cell adhesion, as well as in cohesion of the endothelial monolayer at intercellular junctions in vascular tissue. As a Ca2+-independent cell adhesion molecule involved in heterophilic cell to cell interactions and a surface receptor, CD146 triggers tyrosine phosphorylation of FYN and PTK2 and subsequently induced signal transduction, proteolysis, or immune recognition. This protein is also expressed predominantly on metastatic lesions and advanced primary tumours, and thus has been suggested to play an important role in tumour progression and the development of metastasis in certain human carcinomas.

But during a follow-up with him this past weekend, he said that another team jumped onto his visits list after we had talked--the Jacksonville Jaguars. He squeezed them in between his trip to the Jets and the Saints.
With Adam being such an intense competitor, I had to ask him if he thought his style would matchup well with Jaguars head coach Jack Del Rio's since he also has a pretty intense style. He said that he felt they would do well together, but clearly saw Del Rio as the more intense individual.
"When I looked at him, he's got those intense eyes and even when I looked away it was like I could feel him staring at me," he said. "I could feel the eyes like burning a hole in me."Adam got great feedback from all the teams he visited, and Scout.com subscribers will be able to listen to an audio feature that will be available at Scout.com on Thursday where he recalls his experiences with the most recent six-teams he visited and where they see him fitting into their defensive schemes. Don't miss it!
The Real Deal
|(Photo:Brian Kanof/UTEP)
Higgins is expected to be a first-day pick, and he told me in this interview that was published today for Scout.com subscribers that he was nicknamed "The Real Deal" in high school.
"I had a coach in high school named Coach Price, and we had a game and we did this left flanker delay screen," he said. And I basically ran from side-to-side up the field, escaping everybody and scored a 78-yard touchdown in my first varsity game. He was just like 'yeah, he's the real deal.'"
Longhorns Trio in New York
On the same day that Adam Carriker and Arkansas cornerback Chris Houston were in in town to visit the Jets, the team also hosted three University of Texas players.
I had previously reported that defensive end Tim Crowder had visited with New York, but safety Michael Griffin and defensive end Brian Robison rounded out an impressive group of talented players who were evaluated by Jets officials that day. All but Robison, who is projected anywhere from a second-day pick to a priority free agent, are likely to be first-round picks.
Chiefs host running back
Looking for a second-day value to provide more depth at their running back position, the Kansas City Chiefs hosted Marshall RB Ahmad Bradshaw for a visit last Wednesday the 18th according to one of my NFL sources.
Scout.com NFL Expert Tom Marino projects Bradshaw, who rushed for 1,523 yards and 19 TDs as a junior before declaring for the draft, to be a 5th- or 6th-round selection this weekend. But with the recent rumblings out of Kansas City, the team might also have to spend a higher pick on the position as well. Nick Athan at our Chiefs site is reporting that Kansas City has shopped disgruntled running back Larry Johnson to at least four NFL teams.

I just returned yesterday with my wife from a trip that included La Selva, Cerro de la Muerte, and Manuel Antonio. I have not been to any of these places since 2007 and I have to say that overall, Manuel Antonio has grown for the worse. It is too busy with too little real infrastructure and WAY overpriced for what you receive. However, that said, there is a hidden gem on the road from Quepos leading to the MA national park and that is Didi's Bed and Breakfast. Situated between Quepos and Manuel Antonio with a nearby bus station it is perfectly situated to avoid the crowds yet easy distance from the beach and all the craziness on either side. Additionally, the Proprietor Ezio is an amazing host, friendly, charming, and always willing to help. His two companions (Lou and Ulysses, a poodle and a labrador) are also very friendly. His prices are very reasonable and he is an amazing chef. If you are staying for more than one night I would highly recommend that you partake in his optional dinner which will be less expensive than the surrounding restaurants, includes a bottle of wine or a couple of beers, and is real authentic northern Italian cuisine. I wold definitely stay with him again if I found myself in that neck of the woods.

American Icons: Uncle Tom, John Henry, & "Kind of Blue"
3 segments
"Uncle Tom's Cabin" 13 min
John Henry 10 min
"Kind of Blue" 19 min
This week we bring you three American Icons, stories from our series on works of art that changed the way we think about America. In myth and song, John Henry was a railroad worker who raced the machine that was going to steal his job. He won the race, but it killed him. What does that say about the American work ethic? Harriet Beecher Stowe's novel "Uncle Tom's Cabin" spurred the abolitionist movement — but the title character is now a vicious slur used against African-Americans. How did that happen? And we find out why Miles Davis's "Kind of Blue" became the one jazz record that even non-jazz fans own.

Chicago, Illinois – (The Hosting News) – April 7, 2006 – Web hosting company, Hostway, advises general domain registration in order to protect brand identity rather than risk losing domain names to other companies or cybersquatters.
Hostway releases this advisory after the
land rush for the new .eu domain name on April 7, 2006 at 11am in London. Neil Barton, Director of Hostway explained, "The .eu land rush has now begun, and registration for the .eu domain name is now open to all individuals and companies, regardless of whether or not they have a valid claim to it. It's crucial that companies realise just how important it is to register for their .eu domain name if they wish to take advantage of this opportunity now or in the future.'
Mr. Barton continued, "As the largest top-level domain name release for several years, companies are faced with both an opportunity and a challenge – anyone who hasn't yet registered shouldn't waste any more time – acquiring a .eu address is as easy as picking up the phone. The cost is minimal especially when you compare it to the cost of not registering. Companies who don't register for their domain name are effectively gambling with their brand identity, and they could be risking expensive and unnecessary cybersquatting cases."
A recent survey from Hostway found that the new .eu domain name is set to be as big as .com. According to the survey, nearly two thirds of businesses (64%) feel that the new domain name will be important to their business operations in Europe. The .eu domain name is available to all of the twenty five nations, and the 450 million people that make up the European community.
Mr. Barton concluded, "People do need to beware of unofficial vendors offering registrations as they could miss out, or be ripped off. This is a great opportunity for people to establish their presence as a pan-European entity, but as with any transaction online, people need to make sure that the supplier on the other end is authentic."
Hostway Corporation provides web hosting services with eight locations in the US, Canada, the UK, the Netherlands, Germany, Korea, and Australia with managed hosting services such simple shared plans, to complete dedicated server and VPS solutions to now over 350,000 customers worldwide.

yes, the chinese are not backward in coming forward to demonstrate their displeasure at the negative side of air travel.
there have been few incidents reported lately.
Well, at least we know it's relatively hard to break through the doors once they're shut.
Perhaps this is where we should send all complaining passengers, they can spit the dummy and it appears not get arrested either. Security guys just stand and watch
What is scarier is that an individual like this is a member of the government's 'top level advisory board" sheeesh !
What is even scarier is to see security officers watching without intervening!
Perhaps they were waiting for him to destroy everything first with nothing left to attack them with, then move in.
Just waiting for the "never ever fly Chinese Airways...." topic to appear on here in due course....
Well, at least we know it's relatively hard to break through the doors once they're shut.
Just as well.35 years ago a passenger who missed his flight at glasgow rushed out of the door and accross the apron,straight into the propellor of a Dan-Air HS748.He was spread all over the terminal building and the side of the aircraft.
Very upsetting for all concerned.
When he next flies I really hope he gets his bread roll with his meal :-)
Wonder if he got an upgrade.

I am going to order one of Bruce Rittel's tanning videos from WASCO this week, and I can't decide which one. There are 3 seminar videos: Troubleshooting Tanning for Taxidermists, Tanning Techniques for Taxidermists, and Tanning for the Taxidermist. Has anyone seen these?
I am looking for the video that would be the most in depth, NOT the most beginner one. I am looking to improve the tans I get in my studio setup (not commercial).
Is there one or more of these, and/or another tanning video out there that someone could recommend?
Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge!

Christina,I have the last two videos you mentioned-very informative well worth the money.

One of the hottest rock bands of the boomer generation, The Cars, is reuniting after 23 years, says Billboard.com.
Ric Ocasek, Cars' front man, and the rest of the band are recording a new album. Billboard says it confirmed the band is back together from veteran engineer Paul Orofino in posts on the Pro Sound online message board that have since been deleted. Plus, the Cars have revealed a 73-second snippet of a new song, "Blue Tip," on their Facebook page.
The new version of the once Boston-based band reportedly features Ocasek, guitarist Elliot Easton, keyboardist Greg Hawkes and drummer David Robinson. The Cars original bassist, Benjamin Orr, who died of cancer in 2000.
The Cars had a long list of hits, including Just What I Needed, Best Friend's Girl, Shake It Up and Let's Go. Billboard says they split in 1988.

This message originated from http://www.balidiscovery.com/ Find it online at http://www.balidiscovery.com/messages/message.asp?Id=10711 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
(6/9/2014) Three students from the University of Surabaya in East Java might be suspected of having ambitions to putting hundreds of traditional dancers in Bali out of work.
The three young men, all students in the electrical technical faculty, have designed small robots able to be programmed to perform traditional Balinese dances.
The State News Agency Antara reports that the dancing robots have already mastered the Anoman and Legong Keraton dance.
One of the students, Okky Andriansyah, said: "The two dancing robots have been given the name of 'Niniteus' - inspired by 'nini' a word used to summon an adult female in Bali; 'teus' from the 'Teknik Electro' faculty at the University of Surabaya."
Together with fellow designers, Hamdi Fawazal and Bagus Olifianto, Okky claims Niniteus can be programmed to do any dance.
After programming the robots to do the Anoman and Legong Keraton dances, the student outfitted their inventions in traditional Balinese costumes and implanted voice activation that reacts to the accompanying music.
Niniteus can perform a number of movements. It can look to the right or left; move forward or in reverse; and crouch down – all done in response to specific sounds.
The robots perform a maximum dance routine of four minutes before pausing for a battery recharge.
The dancing Niniteus robots recently won honors at a national robotics contest.

Sigourney Weaver Claims PROMETHEUS Was Her Idea!
Sigourney Weaver's Ellen Ripley character will not be in Ridley Scott's Prometheus, but that does not mean she did not have something to do with the film. According to The Independent (via Blastr), Weaver claims that Prometheus was her idea!
The Alien franchise played a major role in Weaver's career. Here is what she had to say about the franchise and the clashes that she had with 20th Century Fox:
Fox and I disagreed on how the franchise should continue. But I'm glad it's Ridley doing it, and I'll be as curious as anyone, or maybe more curious, to see it. I think he took my suggestion. Fox wanted to go to Earth, and I said: 'That's so boring. Who wants to see aliens on earth?' I said, 'Go back to the planet'.
The concept for the fifth film was to go back to the planet, but that movie never got made. Scott has been friends with Weaver for a number of years, so it is possible that the Prometheus' script was taken in part from Weaver's concept. It is also possible that Scott and Damon Lindelof came up with the concept on their own.
What are your thoughts on this news? Do you think Weaver had a hand in creating Prometheus' concept?
No author bio. End of line.

Briton Rivière was taught by his father William Rivière, and studied drawing and painting at Oxford, where, incidentally, his father had persuaded the University to introduce the study of art for undergraduates. Exhibiting at the Royal Academy from 1858 he also made some mark as an illustrator, producing work for Punch. Elected an Associate of the Royal Academy in 1878, and R.A. in 1881, he received the degree of DCL at Oxford in 1891. He was only narrowly defeated in the election for President of the Royal Academy in 1896.
Rivière produced a mix of contemporary genre, classical and animal subjects, building a reputation as a fine colourist. Following in the footsteps of Sir Edwin Landseer, Briton Rivière successfully combined narrative drama with a close study of animals, painting pictures of wonderful pathos and exquisite beauty, of which the present lot is a good example.

"Trying to work out a date and place was a long and somewhat frustrating experience (which occurred after the cloud 9 booking). The actual lesson was much better---wish there was more wind. Our instructor was friendly and knowledgeable, and even shared some delicious watermelon. He had to take an occassional phone call during the lesson, which is understandable because he runs the show, but I felt it was unprofessional. The hill we practiced on was very small, and I would have preferred a more accelerated learning pace (which the small hill and little wind did not lend itself too). Although I generally enjoyed the experience, I would not recommend it without the caveat of the above situations."
"Great experience, excellent instructor, friendly staff to coordinate!"

The hotel is a beautifully, restored family home. It's in a wonderful, countryside location. The owners were very hospitable and went way out of their way to accomodate us! You will need to use your room phone to keep in touch, since there is no cell service.
