Women from all over the world feel insecure because of their bust size. Living in a world where image matters very much, it is obviously that anyone would like to appear and feel perfect. Though everyone is unique and beautiful in their own way, the truth is that many women would feel a lot better if they would possess firmer and fuller breasts. They can fulfill their utmost desire by using the miracle cream for breast enhancement, Brestrogen.
What is Brestrogen Enhancement Cream?
Over time, breast can change dramatically. Many different factors can influence bosom shape and size, including hormones, diet, lifestyle and genes. Brestrogen Enhancement Cream has been developed to improve breast size and shape in women who want to achieve bigger, fuller, firmer, uplifted and perkier breasts in a natural, safe and healthy way. The miracle cream for breast enhancement is made of natural ingredients that boost bust size naturally, without causing side effects and without affecting the health of the consumers.
Brestrogen Enhancement Cream is one of the best options of women who wish to get bigger breasts in a natural way. Improving bosom firmness and enhancing the appeal and youth of breast contour in only a few months of treatment, Brestrogen is the miracle cream that will help women fulfill their deepest desire.
Brestrogen ingredients
Brestrogen Enhancement Cream is your best solution to get bigger, firmer and uplifted breasts naturally, at home. This highly effective breast cream contains in its formula only natural compounds carefully chosen for their potency and safety. Scientifically tested in a laboratory and proved to be efficient in boosting breast size and shape, Brestrogen includes in its formula significant amounts of Pueraria Mirifica – the active ingredient, deionized water, Butylene Glycol, Vitamin E, Ethylhexylglycerin, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Polysorbte-80 and excipients.
The ingredients included in this miracle cream will improve the absorption of the cream into the skin in order to deliver quick results. Having a pleasant, perfumed scent, Brestrogen Enhancement Cream will not leave stains on clothing and it will not remain sticky on skin. If it is applied daily for several months, this breast enlargement cream will stimulate the development of bosom and it will improve significantly the appearance, firmness and shape of chest.
What are the benefits of the active ingredient?
Pueraria Mirifica, the main ingredient included in the composition of Brestrogen Cream, is also known as "The Elixir of Youth". This herbal ingredient has a long history in helping humans to restore and improve their general wellbeing. Because it promotes youthfulness in both men and women, this plant is included in many age-defying products. Pueraria Mirifica improves memory functions, reduces wrinkles, delays hair greying, improves eyesight, encourages hair growth and rejuvenates the entire body. Recent studies demonstrated that "The Elixir of Youth" regulates hormone levels, stimulates appetite, increases the libido, enhances breast size, alleviates various bladder problems and offers relief to menstrual and menopausal problems, among many others.
Pueraria Mirifica has in the chemical composition several types of phytoestrogens, substances that imitate the action of the female hormone estrogen. Knowing that this herbal ingredient contains Stigmasterol, Campesterol, Miroestrol, Deoxymiroestrol, Genistein, Puerarin, Genistin, Daidzein, Daidzin, Coumestan, Kwakhurin, Mirificoumestan and Mirificine, it will encourage the development of breast and improve the health of the reproductive system as well. Due to its chemical composition, Pueraria Mirifica is highly estrogenic so it is not a surprise that many scientists and doctors recommend it as the standard "estrogen replacement therapy".
How does Brestrogen work?
Because this miracle cream contains in its potent formula high amounts of Pueraria Mirifica, Brestrogen will stimulate breast tissue growth, it will enhance the estrogen distribution to this area, increase the blood flow and expand the cells in bosom so breasts will gain up to two more cups in only several months of treatment. Brestrogen expands the milk ducts and enlarges the fat cells in chest, while it also improves the shape, firmness and contour of breasts.
Encouraging collagen production and fortifying the ligaments around the breast, Brestrogen will make breasts appear significantly firmer and uplifted. The skin, tissues and cells will be rejuvenated, fibroblasts will be promoted and breasts will become firmer, larger, uplifted, softer and perkier in a natural, healthy and safe way. Being often recommended for women who possess less firm bosom, Brestrogen Cream also enhances the overall health of breasts and the consumers will not put their health at risk.
Side effects caused by Brestrogen Cream
Due to the fact that Brestrogen Enhancement Cream is formulated only with natural compounds extracted from herbs, this miracle cream will not cause any negative or unwanted side effects. Thousands of women have already used Brestrogen and gained two more cups in bosom size without reporting any adverse effects. However, the cream should not be used by women under 21 years old as well as by women who are pregnant or who breastfeed. The cream is not likely to cause allergic responses, but you should inform your doctor prior to using Brestrogen, especially if you know that you have allergies.
How to use Brestrogen
Women who wish to enhance breast size and shape naturally with Brestrogen should always use it as recommended. This miracle cream has to be applied with proper massage, because the blood flow is encouraged and the lymph drainage is enhanced. By gently pressing the fingers and exerting small circular movements clockwise towards the nipple, the estrogen distribution will be promoted as well and the ingredients will be quickly absorbed into the tissues to offer quick results. Regular massage will improve the prolactin production, which is the hormone that stimulates breast growth during puberty and pregnancy. As a consequence, Brestrogen Enhancement Cream will enlarge breast size, shape and firmness in only a few months, this way supporting the consumers to improve their self-esteem.
Brestrogen reviews
Thousands of women used Brestrogen Enhancement Cream and achieved the results expected within months. Many positive consumer reviews testify the potency and safety of this miracle cream that starts working even from the first few weeks of the treatment. Consumers will experience some tenderness and tingling sensations in bosom, signaling that the blood circulation is enhanced and that estrogen distribution is improved.
According to these consumer reviews, Brestrogen Enhancement Cream boosts bust size with about two cups in a period of 4-6 months. However, knowing that each and every woman is unique, the consumers of Brestrogen should keep in mind that they might not react the same way while following this treatment. They should apply the cream as instructed while considering that breast enlargement will not occur overnight.
Brestrogen Enhancement Cream is a non-invasive, painless and affordable method for breast augmentation. Containing natural ingredients that are quickly absorbed into the skin, this miracle cream will deliver fast, efficient and permanent results in only a few months of treatment. Using this method does not involve any risks, pain or side effects and the consumers can be certain that they will fulfill their dream of achieving bigger and firmer breasts naturally and without damaging their health state.
Besides the fact that Brestrogen offers bigger, uplifted, firmer and more appealing breasts, it will also enhance the overall health of the consumers and boost their self-esteem. Knowing that many women are insecure and even anxious because of their bosom size, Brestrogen will support them to feel better and sexier in their own skin. With two more cups in breast size, they will succeed to enhance their self-esteem and their appearance will be significantly improved.
The manufacturers of Brestrogen Enhancement Cream ensure the safety and efficacy of this miracle cream, reason why they offer a 45 day money back guarantee. You can return the product and request a refund in case if there is any reason why you are not satisfied with Brestrogen. More specifically, you have 45 days available to try this cream and another 15 days to request the refund. Thus the manufacturers want to make sure that you give this cream a shot and, if it does not work for you, you can get your money back.
Brestrogen comes with full instructions about how to use the cream and a professional team will offer support to answer any questions or concerns. If you need to find information about how to apply the cream as well as how often and for how long, all you have to do is write it down and send an email. You can also give a call and within the shortest possible time all your questions will be answered.
The results achieved in 6 months of treatment are permanent. If other breast enhancement options can offer only temporary results, you can be certain that Brestrogen will deliver permanent results. The compounds included in the composition of this powerful cream will expand the fatty cells and enlarge the bosom tissues just like during pregnancy or puberty. Cups will be added to chest size and the results will not disappear once the treatment is completed.
Having a reasonable price and being significantly more affordable than other breast enlargement options, Brestrogen Enhancement Cream can be purchased at a special price. Women who wish to buy 3 boxes will get the 4th Brestrogen Cream for free. Considering the fact that you can get your money back if you are not satisfied by the treatment, this truly is a great offer and you should give Brestrogen a try.
Brestrogen Enhancement Cream can be purchased only on the internet, from the official website. Although some people might consider it a disadvantage, the truth is that it guarantees the fact that the product is original. Other websites might sell a copycat that will not deliver the results expected and which can cause side effects to the consumers. But the original product will enhance breast size with up to two cups in bosom size, while it will also encourage the general wellbeing.
If you wish to achieve quick results, Brestrogen is not your best option. Breast development does not occur overnight and it might take a while until you notice the results of the treatment. But you have 45 days of trial, so use this cream every day and it will give a noticeable boost by the end of this period. In case if you are not happy with the effects achieved, you can just request a refund.

Ford and Carter's Bicentennial, Or, Stop Being Stupid Part 27
While we were all celebrating America's Bicentennial back in 1976, enjoying all sorts of quaint colonial dramas and fireworks displays, historical re-enactments, and even Broadway plays about the Founding Fathers, Gerald Ford and Company were quietly observing their own celebration by corrupting and co-opting and commandeering what was left of our court system.
Meet the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act as summarized by Wikipedia:
The Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act (FSIA) of 1976 is a United States law, codified at Title 28, §§ 1330, 1332, 1391(f), 1441(d), and 1602–1611 of the United States Code, that establishes the limitations as to whether a foreign sovereign nation (or its political subdivisions, agencies, or instrumentalities) may be sued in U.S. courts—federal or state….. It was signed into law by President Gerald Ford on October 21, 1976.
This law makes it very difficult for us to sue them in courts that are ultimately paid for by us. Sweet.
So we pay for the courts and the judges and the police and when the "United States Citizens" or the "citizens of the United States" presume that we are citizens, too, and we are too ignorant or deluded to forcefully dis-abuse them of their presumptions, they can haul us into courts (paid for by us) and hold us accountable to their private law and they can then charge our trust accounts for any violations and can use police forces (paid for by us) to haul us off to jails (paid for by us) — but we cannot use our Common Law or Federal Postal District Courts, according to them, to pay them the same compliment in return.
This is how they always attempt to claim "sovereign immunity".
To stuff this down their throats requires you to know that they are not a sovereign government of any kind with respect to you, but are in fact nothing but one or another species of government corporation (31 USC 9101) engaged in commercial transactions under the guise of operating a lawful court.
It also requires us to remember that we, the people and our states, retained the international land jurisdiction. We didn't ever delegate the international land jurisdiction to "the United States" incorporated, nor did we delegate all of our powers on the sea. These reserved powers are the powers that we must invoke to bring these criminals to justice.
The Clearfield Doctrine was handmade to ratchet open their throats on this issue and basically says that when a government descends to the level of a commercial corporation and operates as such, it is owed no sovereignty and has no special rights or indemnities. It is subject to all the same rules and limits as any other commercial corporation.
If you can't be tried by the JC PENNY CORPORATION COURT, neither can you be tried by the DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA MUNICIPAL CORPORATION DISTRICT COURT. That's your immunity from prosecution in a nutshell, so pay attention.
A few years earlier another "immunities act" was passed— the International Organizations Immunities Act (IOIA) was passed December 29, 1945, during the last gasps of the Second World War.
The overt intent of the law was to exempt some special groups including the United Nations and various foreign-government related organizations from obeying United States law—- a sort of diplomatic immunity applied to whole organizations instead of specific people.
It will no doubt come as a surprise to most of you that your NAME written in all capital letters is being used as the name of an International Organization—- and it is exempted under the IOIA so that "YOU" can engage in all sorts of unsavory and licensed activities.
Great. That explains how "I" — dba "ANNA MARIA RIEZINGER" was supposedly running a rum distillery in Barbados according to the IRS Masterfile attached to "MY" NAME, at the same exact time that I was actually at home in Alaska running an art gallery.
These unspeakable vermin have had "US" out running around the world doing all sorts of criminal and licensed activities for them, and then exempting "US" from the law so that they can benefit from "OUR" bad behavior as drug runners, privateers, arms dealers, booze manufacturers, and all the rest. Obviously, this is a crime syndicate operation in which they are using our good names and our identities to do evil which they benefit from at our expense—and all without our knowledge.
The rats were gearing up that day in December 1945 to rape and pillage the rest of the world in the wake of World War II, and to do it in OUR NAMES so that when and if they got caught, we'd be blamed for it.
NOTICE TO THE REST OF THE WORLD: I have never run a rum distillery in Barbados. I have never even visited Barbados. These criminals have stolen my name and identity for their own profit and have charged against my credit and falsely claimed that my name and estate were standing as surety for their debts. This is your NOTICE that I have been defrauded and because I have been defrauded, so have you. The Masterfile kept on "MY NAME" by the Internal Revenue Service is nothing but hot air, and you can bet that there are at least 390 million other such Masterfiles being kept "in the NAME of" other Americans that are also nothing but hot air.
There is enough Bull Poopy in Washington, District of Columbia, to float battleships down Pennsylvania Avenue, but these false claims against our names and estates are the worst, most venal, most despicable examples of all. It isn't bad enough for these monsters to indebt the current generation, they have to extend their greed and false claims to generations yet unborn, willingly condemning babies to enslavement while toot-tooting about America, the Land of the Free.
They need to be recognized as the traitors and liars and criminals that they are, unmasked, and disgraced, and most of all—- stopped. Anyone with a brain should know that there is no possible basis for these monsters to indebt –and thereby enslave — anyone, much less babies yet to be born.
It is considerably past time that all the victims of these crimes rose up and brought the careers of these would-be slave masters to an end. Also past time that our NAMES and estates were returned to our ownership and control, free and clear of any encumbrance, debt, fee, title, or other imposition from any commercial corporation whatsoever, including the UN Corporation.
In 1980, Jimmy Carter oversaw the transfer of our Birth Certificates to the International Monetary Fund as security backing the debts of THE UNITED STATES, INC. In this way we became the "presumed chattel" of the UN Corp.
Jimmy didn't care that every single document was executed under conditions of fraud and non-disclosure and against the interests of little babies in their cradles. He was content that they should all be enslaved and defrauded and made to pay the debts of THE UNITED STATES, INC. —- a private, mostly foreign-owned corporation in the business of providing governmental services.
Jimmy Carter could have provided housing for the entire known world on a fraction of what he spent against future generations of Americans while he was in office. That puts his work in behalf of Habitat for Humanity in perspective, doesn't it?
This now completes the circle and tells you how it is that we now have "UN" personnel guarding our Southern Border. They aren't talking about the United Nations chartered in 1945. They are talking about the UN Corporation— a different beast entirely.

Voinovich School Graduate Receives Prestigious Award
Hannah Ticoras
November 22, 2013
Cara Dingus Brook, OHIO Executive Master of Public Administration graduate of the Voinovich School of Leadership and Public Affairs and the president/CEO of the Foundation for Appalachian Ohio, recently received Philanthropy Ohio's "Emerging Ohio Philanthropist" award. The award, debuted this year, recognizes "an individual who has -- regardless of age -- engaged in philanthropy for the first time during the last few years, either in a career path or as a private individual, and shows amazing potential."
The Foundation for Appalachian Ohio has a simple, but hearty mission: "enrich the current and future quality of life in the 32 counties of Appalachian Ohio by fostering access to opportunity." Through programs such as I'm a Child of Appalachia ™, a campaign to instill pride in decedents of Appalachia, the Foundation works to create a better region for all.
Although the award recognizes an individual who is new to the philanthropic world, Brook's involvement with the Foundation for Appalachian Ohio is substantive. She began working at the Foundation as an Undergraduate Research Scholar at the Voinovich School. In an interview given to the Voinovich School previously, Brook explained that working for the Foundation was her first exposure to philanthropy. As an English major in the Honors Tutorial College, Brook's experience was life-changing.
"[Working with the Voinovich School and the Foundation] gave me the opportunity to see how I could apply my creative abilities to service the world ... I had dreamed of doing this one day."
Being the first individual to receive an award is a great honor, and the Voinovich School congratulates Cara Dingus Brook for her continued efforts with the Foundation for Appalachian Ohio.

What sweat and Angel's left behind, the wind took away today. That little bit left on the plate after you lick it clean was removed completely by the desert wind. In the place of BS, sand was left. Today was filled with discovering the beautiful things Mother Nature does with wind, water, sand, time and pressure. The Antelope Canyons are breathtakingly beautiful. You simply cannot take a bad picture in there. Walking up to the Horseshoe Bend is a spectacular surprise. As you walk along this sand trail you can see this wonderful landscape off in the distance and then you suddenly find yourself on the edge of a cliff with a view like no other. The wind picked up while on that trail and did not slow until I set foot in my Airbnb home for the night.
I found a final hike for the day along the rim of the city. You can see for miles and miles. With the wind at my back pushing me along, I giggled while chatting out loud. Luckily no one was around. These trips allow me to fully say whatever needs to be said, and I get to be all the people I need at once: Mother Bear, true friend, perfect mate, and wise loving teacher.
I understand that the advice we give to others is really the advice we need to hear. So today I received a few interesting messages. 1. be so in love with the woman you are that you protect her, finally! 2. Trust the process; you will know when it is right! So relax. 3. Allow the Universe to bring you exactly what and whom you need when you need it. Hell, yesterday a smiling Canadian showed up, today a lovely couple took you in at Antelope Canyon, and a kind Native American man told you all about the area's hidden hikes which lead you to the Rim Trail. Oh, and you were invited to join four Park Rangers for lunch. All is good and the details don't really matter. Just let the BS go, PLEASE.
Every time I started going down the rabbit hole of the past, the wind seemed to pick up speed in order to carry it away and dump sand in my bra. Almost as to say, "Stop it!" So I stopped, stayed present, and let the wind sandblast my skin to produce a youthful glow.
Tomorrow I head to Flagstaff. It might be a day of rest, or maybe not. I trust that whatever shows up will be amazing!

Waikato Times
Last updated 21:48, March 11 2016
The area around Hole in the Wall, off Coromandel, lies in the busy shipping route between the ports of Auckland and Tauranga.
The incident, through an area called Hole in the Wall off Coromandel, which lies in the busy shipping route between the ports of Auckland and Tauranga, came to light thanks to a coastal navigation safety review carried out by Maritime NZ.
It highlighted specific risk areas in Hauraki Gulf, Colville Channel off Coromandel, and Cook Strait, which it described as "one of the more unpredictable waters in the world".
It was prompted by an expected increase in the number of ships visiting New Zealand, a trend toward larger ships, and technology changes in navigational aids, Maritime NZ said.
It found coastal shipping was largely well-managed and there was a "sound framework in place to manage the movement of ships around the New Zealand coast, with procedures in place to assess risk and adjust safety measures if required".
The Hole in the Wall, off Coromandel between "Sunk Rock" and "Old Man Rock", is identified by Maritime NZ and Environment Waikato as being unsafe for vessels weighing more than 500 gross tonnes.
But a "large" cruise ship in 2014 tracked through the gap.
While the ship's name or weight is not in the report, large cruise ships visiting New Zealand have been more than 120,000 tonnes – more than 24 times the recommended safe limit.
"There may be a temptation for cruise ships to take this route to enhance the tourist experience," the report said.
The decision to use the unsafe gap prompted a letter from Maritime NZ to the shipping company, which responded that it would not take the passage again "except in strict compliance with local requirements".
Maritime NZ spokesman Steve Rendle said the ship came within 500 metres of rocks on one side and 600m on the other. While it was an "unusual" route fo the ship to take, it was not a breach of rules.
"It is fair to say the vessel was not in danger at any time," Rendle said.
Coromandel MP Scott Simpson welcomed the focus on the area, especially in light of the Rena grounding.
"There's an obvious concern following the Rena, which highlights concerns about coastal navigation in large vessels," Simpson said.
The report also highlighted an issue on a Panama-flagged bulk carrier that came from Fiji to Wellington, where it was found in 2013 to have a compasss eight degrees out. Maritime rules allow a deviation of up to five degrees.
It highlighted three areas of New Zealand which needed monitoring to see if more needed to be done to lessen risks.
Cook Strait, which had gale force winds 107 days per year and heavy swells, had New Zealand's highest volume of traffic when passenger ferries were included.
Yet, the Colville area – which the Hole in the Wall was in – is identified in a graph of risk as about twice as dangerous as Cook Strait, which came second.
Port representatives around New Zealand were "unanimous in their concern about logging ships", the report said.
"At one port it was observed that recently a log ship headed out into a storm when most of the crew must have been exhausted from lashing logs."
A change to maritime rules, which comes into effect in March next year, means Maritime NZ will have more power in stopping tired crew from leaving port.
Shipping Federation executive director Annabel Young said a growing economy as well as increasing numbers of cruise ships were the reasons shipping was forecast to increase.
"The report paints a picture of exhausted workers on international voyages making mistakes as they move around the New Zealand coast, going from port to port."
The report made it clear that some foreign ships may not have "working radios, an accurate compass, up-to date charts or up to date navigational information", she said.

|Proposed Gothenburg cordon
2. In a dense urban core, more road space is needed to increase usage of other modes (public transport, cycling and walking).
3. Enable the Gothenburg region to pay for major investments in public transport, rail and road. This is to implement costly but important infrastructure investments earlier than it would otherwise have been able to "regular" tax funding.

I feel as if I've hit something of a bloggy speed bump.
Or wall. Or what have you.
I can't seem to take the time to document larger events (Annelise's birthday, my recent road trip with the girls, etc.) yet I don't have much trouble tossing together a mishmash of random tidbits.
As you shall see in this post.
01.) We, the family, posed for a self-portrait before we went into Fuddrucker's last night for no good reason (the photo op, not the Fudds, we were were hungry) except I like documenting random, ordinary, daily happenings (no, we don't eat there everyday). I got the turkey burger MINUS the bun, which is how I've been ordering it for quite a while and I pile on lots of lettuce, onion, pico de gallo, jalapeños and pickles to help me forget the whole missing bun thing as I eat my burger (patty) with a knife and fork. I also always get their sweet potato fries, because what's a burger (patty) without some sort of fries? Lonely and sad, that's what. I do drink a Diet Coke (usually with lime or cherry vanilla) and dip my fries in their jalapeño cheese sauce, so I might be negating the whole skipping the bun thing, but...maybe not.
02.) I'm so glad the Bravermen's are back. (!!) I've missed them terribly. (!!)
(Y'all do watch Parenthood, don't you? Don't you?!?!) I may even have a bit of a crush on Ray Romano's crabby character and am hoping he has a long story arc with Sarah (aka Lauren Graham's character but who shall forever be known as Lorelei Gilmore), but I'm worried about Kristina. I wasn't prepared for the end of last week's episode and think I had better keep the Kleenex handy (which is true for just about every single episode anyway, I giggle, I cry, sometimes at the same time and sometimes the Ugly Cry rears its head and there's no accompanying chuckle, but its ALL so good).
03.) See that white speck above the telephone poles? The one that vaguely looks like a space shuttle piggybacking on top of a 747 while escorted by fighter jets?
Yeah. That speck.
Space Shuttle Endeavor was being flown to its new home in California (and yes, we're still quite bitter Texas didn't get one) on the back of a 747 and it made an overnight stop here in Clear Lake at Ellington Air Force base. It flew around the area a few times Wednesday morning but I only saw it right before it landed (boo hoo!) (I should have gone outside earlier!) AND I was in such a fluster of actually seeing it that I totally forgot to zoom my phone camera in, hence the speck.
04.) A library restock always makes me happy. Annelise started the Geronimo Stilton series and likes it a lot so far, she's also giving the Secrets of Droon series a whirl (but hasn't started them yet) along with a few other random reads. I checked out The Mysterious Benedict Society for us to read together (Once we finish May B). While I'm waiting for my turn to read the second book in the Game of Thrones (ended up really, really liking the first one) series (I think I'm next on the hold list, so yay for that) I got a few filler reads. The Once and Future King is about King Arthur and what Camelot was based on (I think), Divergent is a YA fantasy/sci-fi and Dark Places is a thriller. I'm like #20 in line at the library for Gillian Flynn's latest novel, this one is her second. I like it, but it is a bit dark and twisty.
05.) I'm really, really, really trying to eat less carbs, more protein. Less, you know, junk. It's sooooo much easier if I have good snacks on hand, stuff that's easy to prepare or just grab otherwise I'll be face first in the frosting or something. I'm also learning not to let myself get too hungry, so I'm actually snacking a bit more than I used to, but overall I think that helps me from pigging out later.
I think I should have bought stock in almonds, especially those flavored ones (Wasabi & Soy Sauce is one of my faves), but I try not to go crazy with them. I also like to keep hard boiled eggs on hand in the fridge for a quick protein snack or breakfast (plus Annelise usually has one in her lunch).
06.) I swear I only went in for toilet paper.
Target gets me every time.
Thanks y'all so much for your input on my last post about mascara and nail polish (you know, the important things in life). I bought some Nail Magic (a nail treatment/hardener) and Out the Door top coat at Sally's Beauty Supply last week and will be anxious to see if my nails improve. I think once they get stronger (and stop peeling!) the polish chipping will be a thing of the past because it's only on my four weakest/peeliest nails (both my index and middle fingers) that it's even a problem.
I'll keep y'all posted.
Hope y'all are having a FAB weekend!

The entire staff from Kristie who greeted us with a warm and pleasant welcoming to the hygienist Allison who was patient and fun with my kids. The Dentist Dr. Gerskowits was thorough and super friendly and made me feel comfortable not anxious about their dental visit. My children enjoyed every moment at SOla DENTAL KIDS from the clean decorative kid friendly office (which every parent always appreciates), the teeth cleaning, the x-rays, the face painting, the dentist goodie bag and I can't forget to mention the Beta fish they received at the end of their visit as a little present for their job well done. I would recommend SOla Dental to everyone."

Keith Urban Knows Garth Brooks' Return Will Be a 'Behemoth' Tour
With Garth Brooks' announcement that he'll return to the stage for a world tour this Fall, other country artists are on high alert, acknowledging that it will be stiff competition. Keith Urban in particular knows Brooks' live shows are a force to be reckoned with.
"You won't find a country artist who thinks that's not the case," Keith tells ABC News Radio (quote via WWGP). "We all know that. It's Garth, you know? He hasn't toured in thirteen years. So, the anticipation and expectation -- all of that's phenomenal. He's a phenomenal live performer. People know that. It's gonna be a behemoth tour for sure."
Naturally, Urban has lots of compliments for the country legend, calling Brooks "creative," "original" and of course, "an icon."
Not that Urban isn't those things himself. While on the road, the 'American Idol' judge is playing lots of songs from his newest record, 'Fuse,' and makes sure to change the set list every day to keep things new and different for his fans.
"The level of requests we get for songs off this particular album, off 'Fuse,' has been exponential for the last couple of albums," Urban says. "So, I'm so happy about that."
While he's playing a lot from his latest record, Urban still sings the classic songs that made fans fall in love with him. He makes sure to work songs like 'Better Life' and 'Somebody Like You' into his ever-changing performance.
"They take on a new meaning," he admits. "Why I wrote them may not be this sort of place that I sing from these days, but they take on new meaning."

Playing Tetris, rated one of the greatest video games of all time, immediately after traumatic events appears to reduce flashbacks that plague sufferers of post-traumatic stress disorder, according to a British study.
The preliminary findings could lead to new treatments to prevent or cut flashbacks that are a hallmark of the condition, also known as PTSD, Oxford University researchers said.
"This is only a first step in showing that this might be a viable approach to preventing post traumatic stress disorder," Emily Holmes, a psychologist who led the study, said.

Romney puts Gingrich on defensive before debate
Jan. 23 - Republican presidential rivals Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich sharpen attacks on each other as polls show Gingrich in the lead in Florida before the January 31 primary. Katharine Jackson reports.
Bruised from a bad loss in the South Carolina primary, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney seeks to regain footing on Monday...courting voters at a roundtable in Tampa, Florida....and going on the offensive against Newt Gingrich. (SOUNDBITE) (English) REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE MITT ROMNEY SAYING: "He's opposed vehemently to the Massachusetts health care system, and yet just a couple years ago wrote about what a superb system it was. He's gone from pillar to post almost like a pinball machine, from item to item in a way which is highly erratic." The former Massachusetts governor took heat from Gingrich in South Carolina over whether he would release his personal tax records. He's agreed to release two years' worth on Tuesday. Now Romney says the former House Speaker should return the $1.6 million he made working for Freddie Mac...the troubled mortgage giant many Republicans blame for the recession. Hours before the candidates meet for another debate, Gingrich called Romney's attacks "desperate." (SOUNDBITE) (English) REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE NEWT GINGRICH SAYING: "I've been told by a variety of people that Governor Romney has been saying unkind things. I'd prefer personally not to believe it, but on the other hand, if you've been campaigning for six years and you begin to see it slip away, you get desperate. And when you get desperate, you say almost anything." New opinion polls show Gingrich has jumped into the lead in Florida. The Sunshine state primary election will be held on January 31.

It appears that the latest nearly 4% pullback in the S&P 500 from its peak reached on September 19 has been enough for investors to step in and buy.
If you follow the sentiment surveys then you know pessimism has been on the rise, while optimism has waned. Many market participants use sentiment as a contrarian indicator - selling when bullishness rises and bearishness falls and buying when the reverse happens.
Pessimism among individual investors about the short-term direction of stock prices rose to a three-month high in the latest weekly AAII Sentiment Survey revealed that.
The percentage of bullish investors, those who think markets will rise in the next 6 months, fell to 35.4% from 41.8% the week before.
The percentage of bearish investors rose to 30.9%, above its historical average.
Neutral sentiment was little changed from historical averages.
Historically, a slight majority of investors are bullish - at about 38-40%, with the rest of the investors are equally divided between bearish and neutral at roughly 30%.
Pessimism and optimism have breached those average levels for now. But is it a good contrarian indicator to signal the market trough?
Charles Rotblut, vice president at AAII, warns not to rely on the survey results as a sole indicator for market direction, as its previous results did not predict it accurately.
Market timing rarely works for average investors and it would be wise to look at a combination of indicators as well as individual risk tolerance and time horizon, he argues.
Incidentally, August 7 marked the last trough on the S&P 500 , when it closed at 1,909.

Porn star, internet model and stripper Tory Lane (a.k.a. Tory Freeland) is a vivacious, large-breasted new starlet who is taking her no-holes-barred attitude to blue screens everywhere, earning herself a reputation for raunch in America's hardcore scene. One would be hard-pressed to find a cuter face and better equipped body anywhere in porn today. She has used her 5'6" frame and 34D cup size to titillate men out of their hard-earned cash since 2000, when she worked as a stripper and Hooters Girl in her hometown of Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. Tory has been practicing classical ballet since she was 6 years old; her slim, athletic figure is a testament to all that hard work and dedication. She also holds an Associate's Degree in Business, something that has obviously come in handy in Porn Valley.
She is loved and adored for her very enthusiastic performances on film, grunting and moaning much to the delight of fans of Anal, ATM and DP hardcore flicks. Like in her threesome scene with Trina Michaels and an anonymous stud in '2 Hot To Handle', where Tory, after losing her denim short-shorts, riding hard reverse cowgirl when it's her turn and when it's not, keeping her self very busy with Trina's pretty body.
Tory serves up a dirty, frenzied excursion in 'ATM City 2' with Audrey Hollandar. She not only takes on two men in some delicious DP, but also shows her hardcore raunch abilities with some unbridled and uninhibited ATM treatment as well.
She turns in a another great performance in Wicked's 'Second Thoughts', where she plays a stripper at a bachelor party, who gets very involved with her co-conspirator, played by Lexi Lamour. She's doing anal again in this one, but this time by way of a dildo and speculum. She seems to absolutely love being worked on in this scene, being turned on to no end by Lexi and the crowd of cheering men watching the proceedings.
In 'Illegal Ass' Tory starts out by teasing the camera in a white bikini, forcing the viewer to salivate over all of her sleek, tight curves. Then once the scene starts she displays her mastery in both the oral and anal arenas, delivering an enticing and energetic outing.
Her genuinely sweet and bubbly personality coupled with her sexy, well enhanced, balerina-esque figure sets her apart from other young women entering the industry.

Finding Friends…
Lisa Degliantoni is an educational fund-raising executive in Chicago. A few months ago while planning her 39th birthday party, she realized that she had 857 Facebook friends and 509 Twitter followers, but still did not know if she could fill her party's invitation list. "I did an inventory of the phases of my life where I've managed to make the most friends, and it was definitely high school and my first job," she said.[1]
This happens to us. It's easy to make friends in college: "Hey, you're a freshman? I'm a freshman too!" It's easy to make friends at your first job: "Hey, I'm new. Are you new? Can we be friends?"
When we get married it gets harder. Four people have to find things in common. Children come along and the dynamic gets even stranger. We make friends not because we bond with the adults but because the kids bonded. While our children are romping, playing, and having a good time, we are making polite chit-chat, but not really connecting. Then what do you do when the kids "break up?" It's hard to stay friends if the kids can't stand each other.
No wonder 25% of Americans say they have no one to talk to about important things.[2] Despite all our ways to connect, we are lonely people.
This is why God offers you a new family. To come into this family requires new birth. You are born again into the new family when you confess your sin and your need to Jesus, accept His offer of grace, and commit yourself to following Him. This new family, called church, is a place to belong, to feel real connection, and to lean into each other.
There is a right way and a wrong way to do relationship in this new family. Be sincere in our love. Be devoted to each other. See the good in people. Be positive. All of these are things you can do; they are behavioral choices.
Unfortunately, churches often decide to make other choices. They act more like human families than God's family. They hate. They have come and go commitment. They are better at tearing people down than building people up. They are negative, known more for what they are against than what they are for. All of these are behavioral choices as well. People choose this behaviors because they are afraid of what would happen if they really followed Jesus.
What would happen if people really behaved like Jesus? Maybe there would be a love revolution. Maybe people who be drawn to church because there was radical love. Maybe church would be known for love, not war.
What would happen to you, if you stepped into a circle of God's people and shared from your heart: "I'm here to find friends. I need a new family to help me in life. I need people who will love me like Jesus."

The notion of modernity hinges on a break with the past, such as superstitions, medieval worlds, and hierarchical traditions. It follows that modernity suggests the disenchantment of the world, yet the processes of modernity also create their own enchantments in the mapping and making of the modern world. Straddling a range of disciplines and perspectives, the essays in this edited volume eschew programmatic solutions, focusing instead in new ways on subjects of slavery and memory, global transformations and vernacular and vernacular modernity, imperial imperatives and nationalist knowledge, cosmopolitan politics and liberal democracy, and governmental effects and everyday affects. It is in these ways that the volume attempts to unravel the enchantments of modernity, in order to approach anew modernity's constitutive terms, formative limits, and particular possibilities.
Critical Asian Studies is devoted to in-depth studies of emergent social and cultural phenomena in the countries of the region. While recognizing the important ways in which the specific and often violent histories of the nation-state have influenced the social formations in this region, the hooks in this series also examine the processes of translation, exchange, boundary crossings in the linked identities and histories of the region. The authors in this series engage with social theory through ethnographically grounded research and archival work.

Children love to dress up as their favorite superheroes for Halloween, so it is only natural that they would be as excited to play with toys that replace the visage of the hero with that of the child's own face; that is where the Super Awesome Me project comes into play. It takes such iconic Marvel characters as Iron Man, Captain America and Black Widow and lets people personalize them with their own faces.
Not only a perk for children, the Super Awesome Me project will appeal to adults as well. A collaboration between Hasbro and 3DPlusMe, it was launched earlier this year. People can visit two locations in New York City and one in Dallas, Texas, to get their own Super Awesome Me action figure.

A couple of weeks ago, after viewing an architectural schematic that featured a pair of elevated glass catwalks, I posted a tweet that invited male architects to navigate their own designs in a skirt.
The post ignited a flurry of responses from women, including Mary McNamara, Los Angeles Times assistant managing editor and former television critic, who suggested adding heels to the mix.
To that challenge, design writer Alissa Walker of Curbed added babies.
The tweet reignited a debate about an ongoing design issue in many public spaces — that some of them simply do not keep women in mind.
I took the picture at the top of this post at the Nicanor Parra Library at Diego Portales University in Santiago, Chile, in 2015. The building was designed by Chilean architect Mathias Klotz and was completed in 2012 — in other words, at a point in time when male architects should know better.
Yet the library features glass floors in locations throughout the building. (Naturally, I was wearing a skirt on the day I visited.)
And, in reply to my tweet, writer John Hill, who writes the blog "A Daily Dose of Architecture," pointed out the use of see-through walkways in Rafael Viñoly's building for the architecture school he designed for the City College of New York — which he completed in 2009.
City College isn't the only school of architecture to employ transparent walkways. The Southern California Institute of Architecture, known as SCI-Arc, in downtown Los Angeles has similar elevated walkways. (At a recent gala dinner I attended, some women — including myself — gathered their skirts as they moved across the elevated metal grates.)
This not only affects the women who work and study in those buildings — according to the Assn. of Collegiate Schools of Architecture, 42% of accredited architecture degrees were awarded to women in 2013 — but it normalizes the idea among architecture students that transparent walkways are just a benign architectural feature.
They are not.
But the most notorious, and consistent, example of ill-thought building transparency remains Apple's various stores, as noted by Times book editor Carolyn Kellogg.
Apple's Instagram-friendly glass staircases are a subject that has been raised by various female critics over the years. In 2010, technology writer Joanne McNeil wrote about this very topic in a post that ran on her blog "Tomorrow Museum," later reprinted by Mediaite.
"If I were commissioning the interior of any kind of store and someone brought me blueprints including glass staircases, I'd tell him to take a hike," she wrote then. "I wouldn't give him a second shot. If he's not intuitive enough to grasp that women in skirts will be uncomfortable walking upstairs, clouded glass or not, then what other errors has he made in his design?"
Like, maybe, placing women's bathrooms in architectural exile.
So, if there are a few good men out there (within driving distance of Los Angeles) willing to walk around one their own or someone else's buildings in a skirt — while wearing high heels and holding a purse and a baby — my lines are open.
In lieu of licensed architects, I will also take a class of male architecture students. (Ahem, SCI-Arc?) You all have some walking to do.

Simply Six NBA Teams
NBA previews amuse me.
My amusement owes to the fact that the majority of the time the predictions in these ?previews? are wrong, and secondly because the ones that end up being correct are sure things and uninspiring. Four different ?Power Rankings? with San Antonio on top and Charlotte on the tail end seems a bit redundant, doesn?t it? And division break down, team-by-team, previews interest me about as much as a Dancing With The Stars reunion episode; that is to say, I need a break down of the Bobcats roster like I need to see Evander Holyfield bust a move.
So rather than attempt a tedious analysis of each team and each division, I find it more productive and concise to offer up a quick glance at what I feel are the top three teams in each conference. That makes six teams total (hence the title), listed by conference (and in no other specific order), for your speculative reading pleasure.
Miami Heat
The hype noise this summer was sufficiently dominated by Miami. And really, how could it not be? When you bring in an all-star caliber carousel that includes Antoine Walker, The Glove, and Whit Eboy, you?re bound to get the ink flowing. The cast is colorful to say the least, volatile if I was being honest, which I am. The simple truth is the Heat would be the favorite out East with or without their much touted off season acquisitions. Last time I checked, the Miami solar system still revolved around the Big Super Nova himself. And so long as he is healthy, Shaq is still head and shoulders above all but a few guys who hang around the paint. Now on top of that consider that the number ?3? in Miami has got a game about as ill as the guy rocking that digit in Philly and you?ve got some serious title hopes emanating from South Beach. The only factor that can prevent Miami from becoming a well oiled 60+ wins team is chemistry, and for me to speculate on that would be more presumptuous than insightful. Time will tell whether or not the Heat hoist the O?Brien in June, but don?t expect any less than the Conference Finals.
Detroit Pistons
If the Heat drew attention during vacation months due to their additions, Detroit did the opposite, drawing the attention of most of the basketball world when Larry Brown did his thing and skipped town, leaving the two time Finals participant for the rebuilding Knicks. So coach Brown left, we knew it would happen eventually, anyone who knows his record knows Larry Brown has the staying power of a fox terrier at a Frisbee convention. It?s not like the Pistons don?t retain the best starting five in basketball. They played team ball offensively and suffocating defense under Rick Carlisle so don?t count on the philosophy changing any time soon. Flip Saunders may not have the experience of his predecessor, but he brings stability and what should be a lengthy, and hopefully successful, tenure. The cast is still in place in Detroit, the pieces they?ve had the past two season are the pieces they have going into this one. Additionally, with LB now opposing rookies in the Big Apple, perhaps Darko Milicic can get a chance to flourish, because the league really needs more seven footers with highlights. With or without Darko?s emergence, however, expect Detroit to be slated for a steep battle with Indiana for the Central Division crown.
Indiana Pacers
Jermaine O?Neal believes this Pacers team can win a championship. In fact, he believes they should have <i>already</i> captured a league title, and that this is the year when it all comes together. Truth be told, I?m inclined to believe him. The Pacers aren?t a ?sleeper? team, not by any means. Right now the Pacers are the popular upset pick, or secondary pick. Even if someone picks San Antonio or Miami, they?ll likely throw in a begrudging, ?but the Pacers are right there, too.? Some are even bold enough to take Indy as the squad to go all the way. Those folks aren?t far off either. Lets not forget, when the Pacers are focusing their attention on basketball and not rap albums or arena brawls, they?re a 60 win team and JO is a legit MVP candidate. I believe they will – and he will – regain that form this season. Provided Ron Ron and Stephen Jackson play like all-stars and don?t implode mid way through, we may be looking at the best team in the Eastern Conference.
Houston Rockets
Now here me out first, I?m sure some would argue the Rockets not worthy of being considered a top three team in the West. I?m rather confident a person or two will fervently pound SEATTLE or DALLAS on their keyboards in bold letters to express their dismay. Be that as it may, Houston is still that good. Tracy McGrady is still one of the top two small forwards (for the love of God already, 6-9/225 is not a shooting guard) in the league. Mac is set to put on his fifth consecutive 25, 5, and 5 season and could easily end up far surpassing even those lofty numbers. ?Just digits,? you say, ?one man show,? you argue. To some extent this would be true, but when you?ve got a player of McGrady?s caliber, all that?s required after that is players to fill the gaps. Rafer Alston, Bob Sura, David Wesley, Derek Anderson, Stromile Swift, Juwan Howard, Yao Ming. Yeah, that?ll do. I haven?t the slightest idea if or when Yao Ming is going to have that breakout season we?ve been waiting for, but regardless, it isn?t essential to the Rockets chances of a deep playoff run. If Yao manages something similar to last season?s output, the Rockets will have gotten all they need from their big man. Also, Stromile Swift is great acquisition, if anyone cares. Acquiring Swift may have been the most underrated move this off season. Athletic, versatile big men aren?t something to be scoffed at; Stro?s defensive capabilities and energy around the basket are going to be a huge lift for the Rockets this season. If the rest of aforementioned supporting cast can play some defense and provide some outside shooting, Houston could surprise some people with an impressive playoff run.
Denver Nuggets
The Nuggets ended last season on a tear that had them finishing a decent 49-33 overall and a comparatively incredible 25-4 under George Karl. To best summarize my expectations for the Nuggets this season would be to say this: if Denver picks up the pace they finished with last season, then we?ll see Carmelo ball like one of the top ten players in the L, Marcus Camby will make a case for Defensive Player of The Year, and coach Karl will have the group as a whole running and gunning with the best in the league. Rookie Julius Hodge joins the crew to add some depth to the backcourt, and I wouldn?t be surprised to see him steal some additional minutes as the season goes on. Position wise, I?m not sure why Earl Watson comes onto a team that already boasts the best point guard combo in Andre Miller and Earl Boykins. Skills wise, we all know why he?s there, Watson?s a tough defender, unselfish playmaker, and not too shabby a shooter. This group as a whole in Denver is up and coming fast, and should be around for some time to come, so keep a look out.
San Antonio Spurs
If you keep up with basketball at all (and what would you be doing here if you didn?t?) then you already know the story with the Spurs. All they did was add two proven veterans to their already deep and talented roster. All they are is the New England Patriots of basketball. They win constantly and dismantle their opponents in a tremendous systematical fashion that is at times almost eerie in it?s efficiency. In addition to that, they?ve apparently become the place to be in the NBA. Where as once guys traveled to LA to pick up a ring, now the Spurs are the place to be for anyone focused solely on winning. It?s why Robert Horry and Brent Barry came, and it?s why Michael Finley and Nick Van Exel have followed in their path. Tim Duncan is still in place as the franchise?s cornerstone, and until someone proves otherwise, his team always beats your team. Ginobili, Parker, and Horry are all around, ready with a timely three or big game whenever needed. Gregg Popovich is still the best coach in basketball even if Coach K gets the Olympics job and Phil Jackson?s return to a playoff bubble team gets all the ink. The Spurs, regardless of how redundant and boring them may appear at times, simply do damn near everything better than anyone else. Until someone can knock them off, the Spurs have to be favored to win it all.

It's time to mix things up! In Fraternity/Sorority Mixers Corbin Fisher collects seven scorching bi-sexual scenes in one film! A dozen straight studs take a walk on the wild side by sharing hot co-eds and each other! Superstars Lucas, Connor, Dawson and others take "fraternity" to the next level in this amazing fuck and suck fest!
1. Bi Fuck Fest
After filming this video, I sat around trying to think of what to call it. Getting three young studs and a girl into a full on bi video was quite an accomplishment, and I felt it deserved a really cool name! What's more, bi films that are out there almost invariably have some name that plays on the term "bi". Ideas included "Four bi Four", "Bi Bi Guys", "Bi the Bi" and a whole host of other horribly cheesy names! haha. Thankfully, saner thoughts prevailed and we stuck to CF's roots by... bi?... calling it "Bi Fuck Fest". And a Fuck Fest it is, indeed. A whole lot of fucking takes place on the bed in this vid, and a whole lot of that fucking is fast, furious, and intense! I half expected the paintings to fall off the wall as everyone got so loud, the bed was shaking so much, and the guys really started to go all out. This is Trent's first appearance here on ACS, and he arguably gets to have the most fun here! Not only does he get to fuck Cassie, but he also gets to do it while Dawson and Lucas are all over the place, their dicks and hands and tongues getting put to good work all over and with everyone. Trent also then gets fucked silly, as he and Cassie are on their backs, legs in the air, with Dawson and Lucas totally drilling them! It was as if Dawson and Lucas were competing against one another to see who could pound their partner the hardest! Along with all the kissing, sucking, licking and fucking that take place here, the guys also were definitely feeding off of one another's energy. As Trent is about to shoot with Lucas' cock pistoning in and out of his ass, his approaching orgasm gets Dawson to start pumping Cassie harder and faster and push himself over the edge, as well! You'll even see how I almost had trouble keeping up with their orgasms as they came so close together! All that gets Lucas to the edge, as well, and he soon follows with his own blast! I have to admit, while filming it all and thinking to myself, "This is hot, hot, hot!" I also kept thinking, "We're going to have to buy a new bed!". Thankfully, the bed survived Thankfully, as well, all the energy and intense foreplay and fucking made for a really hot vid and our first Bi Fuck Fest!
2. Bi Fuck Fest II
Every time we put a bi video up on ACS, I'm made aware of just how many people are eager to see bi action out there! I get a ton of e-mails that talk about just how little hot bi stuff is out there and how thrilled people are to see our guys getting into some bi action. I know that it's a big part of why I wanted to film it in the first place and why it's so fun to film! I'm not quite sure what it is about bi sex that's so hot to watch, but I do know that one of the reasons I enjoy it is the context in which the hot sex takes place. It's extremely hot knowing that a straight guy - or, in the case of this video, 3 straight guys! - is having sex with a girl (something he's naturally inclined to do) while at the same time being so free and open and into pure pleasure that he's genuinely enjoying what he's doing with a guy or two at the same time! The girl helps serve as a catalyst at the outset, yet obviously the guy/guy interaction becomes the focus for the viewer and, more often than not, for the straight guys having the sex as well! That's indeed the case here, as Dawson, Brent and Jeff are all really enjoying having the girl around but at the same time there's no denying the fact that they are fully into and totally getting off with being there with one another. With Dawson, Brent, and Jeff you have three guys that clearly know their way around a girl but are also total masters at getting off with another guy. There are no hang-ups or inhibitions between them and that makes for some insanely hot sex! What's especially hot is just how into it all Jeff gets! As you know from his "Teasing Jeff" vid here on ACS, Jeff can't really get into the action with girls as much as he'd like to on account of his girlfriend not letting him. He's allowed to have sex with guys on camera, but no girls (don't ask me... I don't fully get it either!). That's certainly a blessing more than a curse, as far as we're concerned, because he gets royally fucked hard and good in this video! Seeing him take it deep and hard alongside the girl in this video as Brent and Dawson pound away is an incredible sight! Dawson and Brent are practically competing with one another to see who can fuck harder and faster, and it's impossible to pick a winner between them. However, if Jeff and the girl were competing on who could get fucked the hardest and clearly love it the most, I think Jeff comes out ahead! When you consider the fact that Jeff held out from bottoming at all for the longest time, totally refusing to even consider it for awhile and refusing to go beyond a BJ from a guy and the rare top scene, it's made all the more hot!
3. Connor & Austin's Bi Tag Team
When Austin came back after his recent absence, getting him in some bi action was a top priority! We've seen him at some of his hottest while going at it in a 3way with another guy and a girl, and I knew it'd be no exception this time around. While Austin's not alone in totally digging these bi 3ways, he just seems to really stand out in them! Perhaps it's because he just as eagerly gets fucked by his fellow CF studs in them as he fucks the girl. Who knows?! Whatever the reason, I love filming them, and he loves doing them! He and Connor have been in this position before! They've had some great interaction with one another in a past bi video, but they've also both come a long way since that last 3way. I was eager to see just how things would progress here, as Connor has really opened up to guy/guy action since their last 3way and Austin had been away for awhile. As you'll see, it takes them no time at all to get right in to things and start going at it. The image of both Austin and Kate attacking Connor's big dick with their mouths is a hot one, indeed, and Austin looks just as happy to suck Connor's cock as he is to plant his face between Kate's legs and eat her out. By the time Connor starts sliding his dick in and out of Kate while Austin's getting a blowjob from her at the other end, the bed is squeaking and shaking and all three and grunting and groaning. With his audience (Austin) directly in front of him, Connor makes it a point to fuck Kate as deep as that hot dick of his will go, and that spurs Austin on to fuck like a total stud himself when it's his turn to put his cock where Connor's had just been! While pumping in and out of Kate, Austin is also sure to lean forward and swallow Connor's cock, doing everything he can in a situation like this that makes for so many possibilities! Both of the guys are totally caught up in all the intense action as they share Kate between them, but eventually it's time for Austin to be on the receiving end of Connor's cock! Bent over doggy style with his face between Kate's legs, Austin soon has Connor's dick sliding in to his ass and pumping in and out of him! By this point, Kate is all but forgotten! She doesn't seem to mind, though, as she loves the sight of two guys fucking right in front of her and sits back to enjoy the show with us as Connor fuck's a massive load out of Austin that just keeps spurting and spurting out of his dick, all over his abs, and on to the bed. That's all Connor can handle, as he then pulls his own dick out of Austin's ass to shoot off a load on to Austin's balls and legs!
4. Connor & Brody Teasing Ashley
Getting the guys into action with a girl right there along with them really makes for a hot dynamic, and often spurs the guys on to have even more fun, fuck harder, and do all they can to put on as hot a show for the girl as possible. Even though they could be playing with another stud's cock, sucking dick, or even getting fucked, the straight guy in them can't help but want to get that girl turned on as much as possible and put on a show for her! That's precisely the case here, as Connor and Brody get into a thoroughly hot and intense fuck session with Ashley right there watching and enjoying the show! Connor makes the perfect top for Brody. If there's anyone who can get Brody to open up, it's Connor, as he was once a quiet and reserved guy during his first times with another guy here at CF but we've certainly seen that change since! True to form, he does a masterful job of getting Brody to let loose and get into things, all of it culminating with Connor's big dick slamming Brody's tight hole! Early on and with Ashley encouraging the boys to go at it, Brody gets his lips wrapped around Connor's cock and sucks it hard, getting Connor stiffer and stiffer and ready for what's in store. What happens next, though, really makes things take off! Brody is soon lowering his ass down on to Connor's dick, getting it buried up inside him all the way to the balls before Connor begins to slide it in and out. Brody looks like he's absolutely loving it, that hot face of his thrown back, his mouth hanging open, his own dick swinging around while Connor pumps his hole! Connor really fucks Brody deep and hard, and we get a great view of it all as Brody takes it! Connor then gets Brody on to his back so he can resume fucking him hard, Brody's grunts, moans and gasps coming with each thrust. "You're gonna make me cum!", Connor gasps. At that, Brody whispers back that he wants Connor to cum and stares intently down at Connor's cock so he can see it happen. Connor has more in mind, though, and moves up so that his dick is right in Brody's face as he begins to shoot! Brody opens his mouth and takes as much of Connor's load as he can, his tongue totally coated, cum spraying his lips and face, and then leaning into lick off more cum as Connor mouths words of encouragement! It's a fast-paced, furious and intensely hot fuck!

5. Dawson & JT's Bi Tag Team
I guess it's just a double penetration kind of week here at CF! Granted, DP in a bisexual 3some is a bit different than the kind we saw over on ACM (where Travis took both Jeff and Derek's dicks in his ass at the same time!) but it's hot as heck to watch, nonetheless! Seeing two guys getting off with a girl while so close together, their dicks right alongside one another as one fucks from the front and the other from the back, is just too hot! What makes it even hotter is that this video includes JT's first ever action with another guy! He made quite a splash when first introduced over on ACM and fans have been itching to see him get into some guy/guy action - which is exactly what takes place here! CF super-stud Dawson gets JT's cock all warmed up and ready with some hot sucking early on, and eventually both of the guys are fucking their lucky female friend together! It's the DP part of this video that you really have to see! Although JT is fucking the girl, it's really Dawson's cock that gets him off! As you see JT suddenly realize he's about to cum, you'll know what I mean! He is on his back, his big dick deep inside the girl as she rides him, and as Dawson fucks her from behind. The sensation of being inside her, with Dawson's cock in there also and rubbing up against his, sent JT over the edge! His orgasm totally catches him off guard, and he barely pulls out in time to fire off a huge load all over the place! Dawson clearly gets a kick out of that and after some more intense fucking follows up with his own orgasm! The image of two guys engaged in a bi 3-way, with Dawson practically making JT cum indirectly, is awesome! And you know that his first ever bit of action with a guy most definitely made an impression upon JT!
6. Elijah & Cole's Bi Tag Team
After filming him in his solo, his tag-team here at ACS with Cooper, and the guy/guy action he eventually got around to trying out over on ACM, I knew Cole would be the perfect candidate for a full-on, hardcore bi scene. He's one of the most sexual guys I've ever come across, and truly seems to get totally caught up in any action he's in, entirely consumed by his dick and physical pleasure, and more than eager to let loose and have himself a good time. All of that most certainly comes in handy in the midst of a bi 3-way, what with all the flesh sprawled all over the place and all the action that's possible! Likewise, Elijah would clearly be at home in the midst of such action! He's done so much over at ACM and put on such a hot show during his tag-team here at ACS with his brother, Josh, that the prospects for some really hot action and intensity were definitely there with him getting it on with a guy and girl together. These two waste no time in getting right to it once they are given the go-ahead here. As into the girl as they both are, you can't help but notice how Cole almost immediately reaches a hand out to feel Elijah's cock through his boxers while he's kissing the girl's shoulder and she's rubbing his dick. Both guys are hard immediately, their dicks aching and ready to find something and someone to fuck! The fun thing about filming two guys who are entirely comfortable with both girls and guys going at it in a bi 3-way is that they not only know there's always something to do, but that they're more than willing to do it! If they spot the other's cock sticking straight out, hard and ready for some attention, they eagerly reach out and stroke it; if they want to feel someone's lips wrapped around their cock, they won't hesitate to present it to the other guy and let him wrap his lips around it; they know full well they'll have just as much fun fucking their buddy's tight hole as they will fucking the girl! As for Cole here, he is just has happy to sit down on Elijah's cock and ride it to orgasm as he is to fuck the girl - getting is just as good as giving! Indeed, judging by Cole's moans and the noises he makes, it might even feel better for him! You'd think it was 100 degrees in that room as these three go at it! They're all totally drenched in sweat and dripping with it by the time Cole blows his load as he's sitting on Elijah's cock, Elijah thrusting up into him hard and fast. Granted, it can't help but get hot in a room with three young and horned up people going at it! While Elijah fucked a powerful orgasm out of Cole as he pumped up into his ass, he ends up working quite a load out of himself as he pounds the girl immediately after. He definitely showed himself to be quite the stud in this one!
7. Lucas & Jared's Bi Tag Team
Jared's recent return to CF came after quite the long absence, so we had a lot to make up for once he was back and ready to get into some more action for us! Sporting that trademark, shaggy hair of his, he is one of our recent additions to the CF Dean's List, and he was eager to demonstrate just why it is he earned a spot on that illustrious roster! Few scene-types give a guy more opportunity to do as much as possible as one of our bi threesomes, so it only made sense to get Jared in on some of that! He and Lucas have themselves loads of fun, get into some intense and hardcore action, and show off why both of these studs are Dean's List caliber as theY kiss, suck and fuck their way through this hot threesome! In no time at all, both Jared and Lucas are sporting raging hardons as they get into things here. With Jared getting sucked by Ashley and Lucas taking the opportunity to bury his own face between her legs, they get going immediately! Soon, they're both laying back on the couch and making out while Ashley goes back and forth between sucking them both. They stay like that, arm-in-arm, as Ashley then sits down on Lucas' cock to ride him while Jared watches. He wants in on some action, too, so gets up to put his big dick in front of Ashley's face so she can suck him while she's bouncing up and down on Lucas. Jared wants Lucas' lips wrapped around his dick too, though, so moves over to present it to him, and Lucas eagerly gets it into his mouth and sucks while still being ridden by Ashley. They move around so that Lucas can fuck Ashley while she sucks Jared. Both guys lean forward for some deep kissing while they're getting their dicks serviced, moans and the sound of flesh slapping filling the room! Jared wants in on the fucking, too, so they switch around so he can get his dick in Ashley while Lucas gets sucked off by her. After fucking her long and hard for awhile, it's time to take things to the next level! Jared's horny for some dick now, so Lucas leans back on the couch and Jared sits on his cock to ride him! With that big dick of his flopping around, Jared bounces up and down on Lucas, fucking himself hard and fast on Lucas' cock. He then lays on his back and raises his legs so that Lucas can fuck him in this new position. Ashley leans into suck his hard dick, and Jared looks like he can barely handle all of the intense feelings of getting fucked and sucked at the same time! Totally at the mercy of what Lucas and Ashley are doing to him, he's soon blowing his load while she strokes him and Lucas continues to pump his hole! Seeing Jared cum like that sends Lucas over the edge, and he pulls his dick out of Jared's hole and immediately starts spraying his load all over while Ashley jerks it out of him! You know both guys were feeling good and having some fun when neither had to lay a hand on their own cock to blast their loads!

We had never heard of STAXX Bars before we were very kindly sent them to review as they have recently launched three new flavour- Peanut & Caramel, Cookies & Cream & Dark Chocolate Mint. STAXX previously only had the Chocolate Caramel flavour. We couldn't wait to try all of the flavours when they arrived as they all sounded delicious.
You can currently purchase STAXX bars on the website or across many other independent and online retailers including Amazon and Muscle food.
We can honestly say that STAXX bars are the nicest protein bars we have EVER tried, and we have tired a lot. We LOVE the fact you cannot taste the protein in the bars which is something we have struggled to find.
When we eat a STAXX Bar it feels like you are eating a chocolate bar, it really hits the spot and doesn't leave us craving more sugary foods. The sugar content is low with most of them having about 2g of sugar per bar which is also another bonus. They also contain 20g Protein and are also low in net carbs.
We love how chewy the STAXX Bars are as well, they all have a caramel consistency to them which you will also love if you like a chewy protein bar. All the bars have a chocolate rice crispy coating on the outside layer which is something we really enjoyed.
This was the first flavour we tried and immediately fell in love with the brand and the bars they had on offer. Chocolate caramel was also the first STAXX Bar launched and the only one you can currently purchase on their website. I felt like I was eating a toffee crisp which was a massive throw back as I have not had a toffee crisp in SO long, those chocolate bars are so under rated!
This one was quite similar to the chocolate caramel flavour just with peanuts. We love peanuts and anything nutty so this bar was right up our street. We loved the caramel in the bar mostly because we are fast eaters and it slowed us down so we could saviour it for longer.
Dark Chocolate Mint was definitely one of my favourites which I was really surprised about but that is just purely down to the fact I always forget how much I actually enjoy mint flavoured chocolate. It reminded me of a mint Aero but with a crispy outer layer.
I left this flavour until last as I am not usually a fan of cookies and cream flavoured products but when I did eventually try it I actually really enjoyed it. It wasn't my favourite out of the four as it didn't give me that WOW factor and the flavours were not as intense.
We enjoyed the bars so much we headed straight to the website and ordered a box. There is a taster box available where you can purchase a box of all the flavours for £8.99. We ordered 12 of the Chocolate Caramel Flavour because it was our favourite but we will be ordering some of the Dark Chocolate Mint ones as well.
We hope to see STAXX bars in supermarkets in 2018 because that would be amazing!
