Hot Muscle Men Show Off Their Ripped Body In The Gym
by Ben Daniels (Admin) on May.18, 2015, under JockMenLive
Here we have several hot muscle men who already participate on this new muscle site (Jockmenlive). If you sign up to become their member, you can have a nice chat with them and probably a one-on-one cam session as well. They're all great male specimens, with plenty of manly assets to show off so let's check them out. Obviously, the gym is their main hangout place so let's see what kind of pics they sent for this first appearance on the new site. The guys today include: David M Flex, Derrylman, Emilio, Farris XXL, Hercules Jock and Cocky Boy Alex. We will present them here along with their short textual intro that they wrote themselves.
David M. Flex
Hey guys, this is David. I'm a hot bodybuilder muscle puppy, but I can also be a muscle daddy if that's what you want. I love flexing and showing off! I like a nice chat and want to get know you better. Book a private show with me and let's see where we can take this. Here I am on the beach just last month. See how good I look? You want these muscles all for yourself? Then let's get to it!
I'm a former porn actor. I'm a real man, and I have a lot of past experience to entertain in private. I have good tattoos I like to show off and I'm into real-man fantasies. What's your pleasure? Military? Daddy? Bears? College jocks? Take me into private and tell me all about it, and let's see if we can do something to relieve that itch of yours.
There's not enough space here to describe myself. I will say just I am a man who love to build his muscles, and I have a well balanced body! Ripped abs, masculine, vascular. I will not talk here about how sexy my butt is, and how hot and horny I get when I show off my body (mirror flexing is a huge turn on for me). So take the time right now to find more things about me. You'll be glad you did. PS I am very handsome, too – if you like young muscle daddy types.
Farris XXL
Just in from the exotic Balkans region of Southeastern Europe, I'm Farris, and I will make you my next muscle worshipper. I've set my sights on going Pro in the bodybuilding world, and I'm well on my way. Check out these shoulders and arms covered in a sexy tribal tattoos, my tight midsection, and of course, these bulging quads! For me, determination, perfection and sincerity are part of my mantra, and this makes me the perfect addition at JockMenLive. It doesn't hurt that I'm friendly and easy-going. Take me into private chat, and we'll investigate a little more intimately just what it means to be a muscle star.
Hercules Jock
See my pix? Here I am just recently in the locker room after a super heavy workout. Sometimes I feel like Reg Park or Steve Reeves, those classic musclemen who flexed in all the muscleman Italian movies, which is why I call myself Hercules Jock! I was born for bodybuilding, and I'm working hard every day to improve my shape, and become the best! I enjoy sharing my results for muscle fans, and that's why I invite you to join me for great muscle sessions! I'll flex big muscles at you when we go private, and you can pretend I am rescuing you from some evil wizard! Let's do muscle fantasy together!
Cocky Boy Alex
Welcome, I'm Alex. I don't like to pretend that I am somebody other than myself. I like to communicate with people who have brains – if you're honest, I will be too. No bs, no games here. I love bodybuilding and I'm in love with this sport, working hard to improve myself. My muscle is clean and fit, like a professional fitness model, so if you prefer hard and clean and young to big and beefy and musclebound, come message me, and let's have a great time!Cocky Boy Alex

An individual with Down syndrome and a male calico cat have one thing in common--each has an extra chromosome. For animals, most instances of an extra chromosome result in birth defects or even death, but plants are another matter entirely. Many plants are able to survive the presence of an extra copy of their entire genome (known as polyploidy) and are often even more vigorous as a result. For plants, the process of polyploidy often results in a new species, making it an important mechanism in evolution. In fact, over 80% of plants may be a product of polyploidy.
However, this extra set of chromosomes can sometimes cause confusion during meiosis, the process by which sets of chromosomes are divided up to produce egg and sperm cells, with half the number of chromosomes present in a mature plant. Many recent studies have examined the effects of polyploidy on meiosis. A recent study by Drs. Andreas Madlung, Kirsten Wright, and J. Chris Pires, published in the September issue of the American Journal of Botany (www.amjbot.org/cgi/content/full/96/9/1656), examines the effects of polyploidy on a more common type of cell division, mitosis--the process of cell division that results in daughter cells that are identical to the parent cell--which allows the plant to grow and develop.
"We had been working on genomic responses to allopolyploidy for many years in newly formed allopolyploids and had noticed some instabilities during meiosis and gamete formation in newly formed allopolyploids," Madlung said. "The commonly held belief is that in established allopolyploids, incompatibilities of the two parental genomes somehow are reconciled during the evolution of the allopolyploid species but there is only relatively little data in the literature that supports this notion.
"Our work shows that even established polyploids can harbor considerable genomic instabilities, but interestingly this is not always the case either, as the different responses in different sibling lines show."
Madlung and colleagues studied whether mitosis proceeds normally in newly formed polyploids and whether there are differences between mitosis in newly formed polyploids and polyploids that were established long ago. They examined a species of rock cress, Arabidopsis suecica, a polyploid with 26 chromosomes that is both found in nature and can also be resynthesized in the laboratory. Arabidopsis suecica was formed from the hybridization of a tetraploid accession of Arabidopsis thaliana, a species with 20 chromosomes, and the tetraploid Arabidopsis arenosa, a species with 32 chromosomes.
Madlung and colleagues found that a small number of cells in both natural and in one of two newly formed A. suecica had either extra chromosomes or were missing chromosomes. Interestingly, in examinations of the progenitor species of A. suecica, Madlung and colleagues found many cells with differing numbers of chromosomes in A. arenosa; however, most cells in individuals of both diploid and tetraploid A. thaliana had the expected 10 or 20 chromosomes, respectively. In individuals with unexpected chromosome numbers, the numbers varied between cells like in a mosaic, suggesting that these changes are not stable.
"Maybe the most interesting result to me is the fact that plant cells can sustain a large amount of aneuploidy in their tissue without detrimental phenotypic consequences," Madlung said. "We were also surprised to notice that the tissue we looked at consisted of a mosaic of different types of aneuploid and euploid cells. The fact that the plants were quite fertile indicates that possibly the euploid cells contribute the majority of cells to what later becomes the gametes."
These results suggest that slight changes in chromosome number in an individual's non-sex cells are tolerated but are not fixed, providing new insights into how polyploidy and genomic change can lead to evolutionary change and possibly ultimately affect plants' fitness and vigor.

Open plate rack, glazed cupboards, decorative shelving or elements like fretwork can end up a hotchpotch of images unless the basic shape of the kitchen is well balanced. We need to think of the kitchen more as a piece of furniture. We are living in the kitchen or family room now, not formal rooms, so it needs to be good to look at, comfortable to be around and practical to be in.
The design of a functional kitchen is by itself a profound art which requires more thoughts than any other parts of your home. Therefore, knowing the facts behind a successful kitchen design would help in creating a harmonious and practical mate for the user but also, ease in maintenance and cost saving.

text: 21 May 2013 12:00 Etihad Airways, the national airline of the United Arab Emirates, and KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, have entered the second phase of their strategic partnership following the launch of the Abu Dhabi-based carrier's flights to Amsterdam. The daily service, operated by a two cabin Airbus A330-200 and configured to carry 262 passengers with 22 in Pearl Business Class and 240 in Coral Economy Class, was launched on Wednesday 15 May and carries KLM's KL code.The launch of the new flights coincides with the addition of 12 new KLM destinations out of Schiphol Airport which now carry Etihad Airways EY code. KLM has also added its KL code to a further six Etihad Airways destinations from its Abu Dhabi hub.James Hogan, Etihad Airways' President and Chief Executive Officer, said: "The launch of Etihad Airways flights to Amsterdam demonstrates the deepening of our relationship with KLM as we anticipate great demand for the KLM codeshare flights beyond Schiphol Airport."The partnership with KLM follows Etihad Airways strategy of working closely with partners around the world and using their existing networks to feed secondary cities, as well as other areas of benefit to customers like reciprocal lounge access and frequent flyer 'earn and burn'."The 12 additional destinations that Etihad Airways customers can now access through codeshare operations with KLM are Stockholm, Aberdeen, Barcelona, Bergen, Birmingham, Copenhagen, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Gothenburg, Helsinki, Leeds/Bradford and Madrid.These cities join the first phase of cities served by KLM, which carry the EY code, Billund, Cardiff, Newcastle, Oslo, and Stavanger.KLM now has its KL code on six Etihad Airways' flights to Abu Dhabi, Brisbane, Khartoum, Male, Muscat and Seychelles.These join the initial group of cities served by Etihad Airways – Colombo, Islamabad, Lahore, Melbourne, and Sydney – which also carry the KL code.Peter Hartman, KLM's President and Chief Executive Officer, said: "We are delighted to work together with Etihad Airways. Together we are developing new forms of joint ventures as joint ventures developed in the 1980s are no longer suitable under current circumstances."We now offer a combined double daily service between the two cities which is fantastic for the airlines, the two hubs, and of course our customers. And this will bring a boost to our economies."In addition to flight operations Etihad Airways has this year wet-leased a Boeing 747-400 freighter from KLM. This aircraft, with a payload capacity of 124 tons, links the two cargo hubs of Abu Dhabi and Amsterdam, and increases our capacity to Frankfurt, Hong Kong and Dhaka.From KLM's partner, Air France, Etihad Airways has also wet-leased an Airbus A340-300 for use on the Paris-Abu Dhabi route from now until the end of the year.Amsterdam joins a group of 17 leading European cities that Etihad Airways flies to including Brussels, Dublin, Frankfurt, Geneva, London and Paris.

Megadeth's Dave Mustaine Rocks NYC Concert After Announcing He Needs Neck Surgery
Megadeth leader Dave Mustaine obviously lives by the motto "the show must go on."
After reportedly spending Tuesday in a hospital bed due to a neck-related injury, Mustaine and his band rocked Yankee Stadium in New York on Wednesday night along with fellow Big 4 bands Metallica, Anthrax and Slayer.
But prior to the concert, Mustaine dropped some heavy news: he needs surgery to fix the damage.
Neck problems are nothing new for Mustaine. In August 2008, the singer/guitarist wrote about being diagnosed with degenerative disk disease and arthritis in his neck.
Apparently, Mustaine's latest neck-related issue — due to an injury he sustained on the recent Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival — seriously jeopardized Megadeth's Yankee Stadium show. The band's 10-song set on Wednesday night included the single 'Public Enemy No. 1,' which can be found on the new Megadeth album, 'TH1RT3EN,' due Nov. 1.

We became a member of the Arts Council of Wayne County in 1985, and continue to be the Dance Affiliate of the Arts Council of Wayne County. In 1997, we became known as Goldsboro Ballet as the growth and quality of performances grew away from the simplicity of a civic production. Goldsboro Ballet provides exposure for our dancers by bringing in guest artist for guest performances, choreography and workshops. The Ballet Company proudly produces three annual public performances.Our goal is to offer performance opportunities for dancers who wish to be educated and dedicated to the Art of Ballet.

Eddie Perfect Returns to SOUTH PACIFIC as 'Luther Bills' at QPAC from Tonight
Award winning actor and writer Eddie Perfect will return to the stage in the role of Head Sailor Luther Billis replacing Gyton Grantley for the final four performances of South Pacific at the Queensland Performing Arts Centre (QPAC).
Eddie, a well known television and theatre star, will join the South Pacific Brisbane production from tonight, 25 January until the final performance on Sunday 27 January, while Gyton is in Sydney undertaking filming commitments for the TV show House Husbands.
Eddie received wide acclaimed for his performances as Billis in the show's premiere season in August 2012 at the Sydney Opera House, and in the following Melbourne Season.Brisbane born Gyton has also wowed audiences since he took on the role of Billis for the Brisbane season of South Pacific which opened on 27 December in QPAC's Lyric Theatre. Gyton, best known for his portrayal of Carl Williams in the Underbelly television series, said he has loved playing Luther Billis and performing in front of audiences in his home town.
"I have had a ball in my musical debut and it has been amazing working with the talented and warm group of people of South Pacific. I am certainly sad to leave Brisbane before the season end, though am happy to hand over the baton to Eddie, knowing audiences are going to love his portrayal of Billis," said Gyton.
Eddie said he relishes the opportunity to take to the stage again in South Pacific.
"I am thrilled to be able to re-insert myself into this incredible production of South Pacific again in Brisbane. I've performed there many times and loved it, but this will be my first time in a major musical. Since leaving the production to honour my commitments to Offspring, I've missed the show and its wonderful cast dearly. It's a dream to be back on board, tackling the role of Billis in front of a sunny Brisbane crowd," said Eddie.
Acclaimed opera star Teddy Tahu Rhodes and Australia's best loved and four time Gold Logie award-winning actress Lisa McCune, Australian musical theatre star Daniel Koek and award- winning Australian singer, Christine Anu lead the stellar cast as Emile de Becque, Nellie Forbush, Lieutenant Joseph Cable and Bloody Mary.
Considered one of the finest musicals ever written, the score includes Some Enchanted Evening, I'm Gonna Wash That Man Right Outa My Hair and There is Nothin' Like a Dame.With a cast of 40 and an orchestra twice the size of most musicals, this international hit and landmark production, which was just awarded Best Production of a Musical at this week's Sydney Theatre Awards, will perform at the Lyric Theatre, QPAC until 27 January 2013.SOUTH PACIFIC - CAST & CREATIVE TEAM

I. Comic Book Law School - I've been attending comics conventions around the country for over a decade, and have spent the last five years speaking as a lawyer and scholar on the intersection of comics and the law. The past two years I have been a panelist on the hot topics panel portion of the three-day Comic Book Law School program presented at the San Diego International Comic-Con - billed as the largest such convention in the world. My friend and colleague, Beverly Hills IP attorney Michael Lovitz, does the pro bono service of offering this program to attendees (a mixed bag of lawyers, artists and fans) every year.
Each year I participate I am reminded that those of us in legal education, or in active practice representing relatively savvy clients in IP matters, tend to lose sight of how for many members of society, the basic principles of IP law are a mystery. Popular myths are persistent (i.e.: you can obtain the legal protection of copyright by mailing a copy of the work to yourself), and there is often confusion as to what a copyright protects - the idea/expression dichotomy is a source of much confusion.
Given the increasing importance IP has in society, it may be worthwhile for colleges, and possibly high schools (yes, even in this cash-strapped time for public education), to offer training in basic IP law (copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, unfair competition and right of publicity) in an array of concentration areas in their curriculum. IP issues are important in the Business Administration field; in Computer Science; in Political Science; and in all aspects of arts education, ranging from music to film. Law schools and local bar associations should encourage faculty and IP practitioners to offer talks, lectures and classes in their areas of expertise, to shed much needed light about these subjects.
2. Robot Chicken and the Parody/Satire dichotomy - Robot Chicken is a stop-motion animated television series created by Seth Green and Matthew Senreich, which airs as part of the Cartoon Network's Adult Swim programming. The show makes me laugh often, and cringe occasionally. The creators and writers presented a hilarious panel at last week's Comic-Con.
The IMDb industry website characterizes the show's non-stop sketches as "satire", and the Wikipedia entry calls the program a "parody" show. The reason for the confusion is that it offers a bit of both forms of content. Using toys, action figures and dolls, the sketches skewer pop culture in a broad array of contexts, from movies, to television, reality shows to comics. Celebrity voices add to the wicked sense of humor, with the celebrities often showing the good sense to participate in episodes that poke fun at themselves.
In between the intentionally juvenile barf and fart jokes can be found mordantly funny and sometimes dark or dry humor that parodies popular movies, television and related media, as well as sketches that satirize pop culture trends (the sketch which takes four popular children's toys in the My Little Pony series, and recasts them as the Four Ponies of the Apocalypse comes to mind). From a teaching standpoint, the show offers a great opportunity to illustrate the difference between parody and satire, as well as an opportunity to showcase the principle that the First Amendment exists not just to protect content we enjoy, but also material that we find offensive - as the content of this program is often likely to offend at least some, if not most, of its viewers at one point or another - no one and nothing is immune from its reach.
Of interest also is the fact that despite the sometimes very dark tone of its parodies and satires, the creators of Robot Chicken have not apparently been sued, neither for copyright infringement, nor a violation of rights of publicity, or of defamation (their parodies of Paris Hilton and Lindsey Lohan are particularly provocative). This may be, at least in part, due to what has become known as the Streisand effect - the idea that suing might bring more unwelcome attention to the defendant's conduct, and that the better tactic is to simply wait out the fifteen minutes of fame the parody will draw, before the fickle public and media moves on.
In my next Comic-Con related blog post, I will address violence by fanatic fans at the Con, and I'll summarize the state of comics censorship and the ongoing work of the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund...stay tuned till then.

It's hard to look at Aiden Glynn's street art and not break out into a goofy grin. He adds eyes, fangs, tongues, and sometimes mustaches to mundane fixtures on the Toronto streets and turns them into wonderful Muppet-like monsters.
To some extent, Glynn's work reminds me of Anne Wheaton and Bonnie Burton's VandalEyes, which proves that googly eyes add a dose of personality to any object. But Glynn clearly takes into account the shapes of the objects he's working with, so that his enhancements make them look almost alive.
Check out more on Glynn's Tumblr and see more of his street art on Facebook.

In all seriousness, the Marlin is a great rifle, too. I own a Model 60, one of the best rifles ever made.
Brownings are nice, but in terms of quality AND accuarcy AND ruggedness, it's hard to beat the Marlin.
And great story to go with it. Guess you didn't need the boat huh? Did I ever tell you that I really like elk meat? Congrats man! It was well deserved! The only bad thing now is going to be the taxidermy bill for a shoulder mount!
Houses always need a sky light.
That's exactly what I was thinking.....

I have not pitched Bill, but have arranged for and observed Bill on several pitch panel events with other entrepreneurs pitching. At the personal level, I find Bill to be good to deal with - always return email, feedback, etc. when asked. At the VC level, Bill is always straight and fair with entrepreneurs; might have come across as harsh sometime, but he was usually right in his assessment.PRIVATE: Members Only (218 Characters)

If there was any confusion about what you're getting with the Sims 3 on Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3, let me clear it up for you: it's the Sims 3, the extremely popular PC life simulator, but on consoles. Obviously the game has been reworked to function with controllers instead of a mouse and keyboard, but there's also one other major addition: Karma Powers, a potent way to help or harm your Sims. If you're a fan of the Sims series, chances are you already own this game on your PC, but on the off chance that you don't, the console version is a good substitute.
The addictive formula that worked on PCs translates well to consoles, and you may find yourself neglecting your own needs to make sure your starving Sim gets some food. The controls may seem complicated at first, but the game does a fine job of easing you into the experience with its tutorial system. Once you get the hang of it, it's really quite easy.
Though the controls are simple to pick up, be prepared to face a lot of loading screens. Travel to any area outside of the general circumference around your house and you'll hit a loading screen. There's also some slowdown when you fast-forward time, which unfortunately happens a lot in this game. I mean, who wants to watch a Sim pee slowly? The framerate issue doesn't ruin the game, as it has a slower pace than other genres, but it is a noticeable annoyance on both versions.
Overall, this life-simulation game is pretty consistent with the PC version. You'll create a Sim household or choose a pre-made family to start out with and then dictate their lives. The creation tool offers an in-depth way to customize your Sims — pick their physical appearance, different outfits, voice, favorite things, traits and lifetime wish. Depending on your Sim's characteristics, these goals can range from learning every recipe in the game to becoming the top dog in the criminal career path. Once you have your household of Sims, you'll manage their daily lives making sure their needs of hunger, hygiene, social interaction, fun, bladder and energy are all met.
Customization is also still intact from the PC version — you can build a new house from scratch or remodel the one you're in, dig a pond or grow a mountain in your backyard, or make yourself a giant pool.
Can't find anything you like for your Sim to wear? There are tons of textures for you to play around with; so if you can find the basic look of what you want, you can tweak it to your heart's desire. If you can't make clothes or furniture you like, hit up the online swap store "the Exchange." Free of charge for those who purchase the game new, the Exchange is a place you can download other people's creations or upload your own. It's easy to access and use, and it's always great to see what creative minds can come up with.
While guiding Sims along their lives, their desires will pop up on screen for you to accept or decline. It ranges from small things like buying a book on Logic to mastering a specific skill, and every time you complete a Wish, you'll be rewarded with some Karma Points (the amount varies depending on how big the task is) and a happier Sim. Alongside Wishes are Challenges, which range from purchasing a chess table to making your home's value rise above a certain dollar amount.
Successfully tackling Challenges earns you points to purchase items for your home and even certain Karma powers, though you must first complete a specific Challenge to unlock them. For example, fulfilling the home's value challenge listed above is necessary before you can purchase the Giant Jackpot power. My gripe about Challenges is that the setup is a bit confusing, and I'd often forget that the Challenge Shop existed until the game informed me that I unlocked the ability to purchase a new Karma Power. Though the Challenge Shop offers some nice items like furniture sets, the only really enticing things to purchase are the different Karma powers.
Don't fight! Love! Love!The idea behind Karma Powers was to speed up some of the processes that can be tedious, like getting promotions or a little lovin' and to just have some spiteful fun with your Sims. There are good and bad options — Giant Jackpot will make your Sim win the lottery while Epic Fail will transform your Sim into a temporary loser that can't do anything right.
It's fun to try out all 13 powers once you unlock them, but don't expect to be able to use them constantly as each Karma Power costs a certain number of Karma Points. Thankfully, earning Karma Points isn't all that difficult; you obtain them by completing Wishes or during the Hour of Reckoning. Every night at midnight in your game, the Hour of Reckoning will either award you Karma Points, or unleash a devastating disaster upon your household. If you abuse the powers too much, it can result in tragedy, but if you use them in moderation, positive things will happen. Unleashing a firestorm of rage on my unsuspecting household or using Super Satisfy to let my Sim girl get a little more "Woo-Hoo" action into her day was quite fun, so the powers are definitely a nice addition.
What the Sims 3 lacks on consoles is variety. After playing through a Sims lifetime once, you'll already know all of the people. The town is full of the same dozen or so Sims, so once you're done with the first life cycle you don't get that same sense of excitement when meeting all your neighbors or trying to find a love interest for your single Sim. This problem is easily fixed with downloadable add-on packs like the PC version has, but it's still a bummer that it feels more like a small town than like a thriving city. Despite its quaint size, the suburb has plenty of amenities to indulge in, including a spa, gym, bookshop, two restaurants, an art gallery, etc., so your Sim will never be bored unless you want him to be.
Closing Comments
It's amazing that The Sims 3 works so well with a controller and that many of the PC functions are still intact. So if you're curious about the Sims and don't own a computer, you should try out the console version. The instant gratification of the Karma powers plus the addictive formula of The Sims 3 is a winning combination, but the game isn't perfect. With some minor performance problems and the limited world, this title lacks some replayability right out of the gate. However, if it's a title EA supports with downloadable content like they do with the PC version, Sims 3 could have a promising future. The PC title is still superior, but if you can't see that version in your future, the console port is worth your time.

After the massive whams of hurricanes that have hit the Gulf Shores of the United States, and sitting in the middle of them, working on this blog and my other WordPress site has been incredibly painful as the power goes on and off and maintaining a digital cable line continued to be unstable. When the power began to stablize, I found I was having computer and online slow downs. Since my cable company is backlogged with hurricane repairs, I cleaned up, replaced, and tightened the cable connections as best I could, then tackled my computer as a source for the slow downs.
Hunting for tips and trips to speed up my computers, I found an article featuring Tech Builder's 23 Ways To Speed WinXP Without Defrag.
Several of the tips in the article helped me turn my computers back into the race horses I knew them to be. The tips and tricks offered are safe to do, and in fact, they are things you should do regularly, like run defrage and cleanup your desktop, and open the machine and blow out the dust bunnies and look for problems inside the machine. Common sense tips.
So I decided that since these helped me, along with some other sites I found, that I'd stick with the theory that whatever benefits me must be of benefit to you, my faithful readers. So here is a list of sites offering top speeding tips for Windows XP. Backup your registry and system first!

How to Choose Lacrosse Cleats: Nike Vapor Lacrosse Cleats
Your feet are extremely important to both your overall health and sports performance. Your feet are what keep you stable and allow you to move. If you are having problems with them then it can cause problems in your legs, knees, hips, back, and even your neck. That is why it is important to know how to choose lacrosse cleats.
Get the Correct Size
Shoes are one place that size does matter. Improperly fitting shoes can cause a variety of problems with your feet. Shoes that are a size or two too small will constrict your feet. This can keep blood from flowing properly. This causes numbness and pain. Shoes that are a size or two too big will slide around and rub on your feet. This causes things like blisters.
Proper Stability
Lacrosse cleats are available in three heights; low, mid, and high. There are pros and cons to each height. Lacrosse cleats that are low-cut will stop below your ankle. These don't provide your ankles with stability. On the plus side, they are easier for making quick moves. The top of mid-cut boots will stop pretty much in-line with your ankles. These are great for people who still want the benefits of quick movements but need some ankle stability. The top of high-cut boots will come above your ankles. These are great for people who need the maximum possible ankle stability.
When you go to purchase your lacrosse cleats, keep these things in mind. They will help you to make sure and choose the best lacrosse cleats for you.

Sweetness, considered a positive in so many areas of life has sadly become soured in wine because of its association with being old-fashioned or unsophisticated. However, in the spirit of this Summer of Riesling, I'm asking you to put aside any preconceptions you may have and join me on a journey into the dolce vita.
Historically, sweet wines were some of the most prized in the world. Fortifieds such as port and madeira and dessert wines such as sauternes and German stickies, were once the things to be seen sipping in high society. However, a spate of insipid, sickly mainstream brands in the 70s and 80s caused sweetness to be equated with low quality, while the fact that sweetness is a character that people regard as unrefined.
Before I extrapolate further on this stickiest of subjects, I have an admission to make. I find it easy to forego dessert and see myself as someone with more savoury tastes. However, give me a good glass of something sweet and I'm thrilled by the way the best of them tread the razor's edge between sweet opulence and rapier-like acidity.
Good examples are never cloying. Some don't even taste sweet: it's all a question of balance. Take a variety such as riesling, with inherently high levels of acidity that mean it can support higher sugar levels while giving an impression of dryness.
Or a style like Champagne, where picking the grapes when unripe and acid levels are elevated, means even brut (dry) styles can contain sugar at a level that would make other wines taste distinctly sweet.
This interplay between sugar and acid is something that's been taken into consideration in the creation of the International Riesling Foundation's taste scale. As sugar levels vary across this variety like no other, causing confusion over the style drinkers can expect, it's developed a graphic that has been adopted by some NZ wineries to plot perceived sweetness using the ratio of acid to sugar.
Even if you're a dyed in the wool dry wine drinker, you will have enjoyed wines containing some residual sugar (or RS, the techie term for the quantity of sugar remaining unfermented in a finished wine measured in grammes per litre). As some sugars are resistant to the action of yeast, most wines are not technically bone dry.
What's widely considered to be dry can have an RS level of as much as 5g/l.
Winemakers also often choose to leave a soupcon of residual sugar in the mix to soften or fill out a wine and give it more mainstream appeal, as is the case with many commercial brands.
Studies have found that though people may say they prefer dry wines, in practice they're more partial to those with some sweetness. A case in point is the popularity of our pinot gris locally, most of which would be categorised as off-dry.
However, you'd be hard pressed to find any mention of this on many labels of pinot gris or indeed any variety that's not an out-and-out dessert wine. Sweetness has become the descriptor that dare not speak its name as wineries fear prejudice against it may put people off buying.
Getting wines with some sweetness into people's glasses to overcome this unfounded fear is an approach that's embraced by the Summer of Riesling, currently in full swing. Though rieslings can be made dry, our conditions mean that many of our finest have a hint of sweetness, with styles across the spectrum being promoted on wine lists and through tastings across the country by the initiative.
It's time for sweetness to step into the light. Winemakers should be proud to proclaim its presence on their labels and drinkers encouraged to get over their hang-ups and give sweeter wines another go.

In 2012, ABC7 reporter Keli Rabon conducted an investigation to determine the number of untested rape kits in the greater Denver area. The investigation uncovered hundreds of untested kits.
Among the findings, Rabon learned that the Denver Police Department tested only 56 percent of the 1,064 rape kits collected there since 2008. The Fort Collins Police Department, about an hour north of Denver, tested just 28 percent of the 243 kits collected there since 2007. Jefferson County had tested only 36 percent of the 117 rape kits collected in the last five years.
Throughout the investigation, police officials stated that it was unnecessary to test all rape kits. Within a week of ABC7 breaking the story, however, the Fort Collins Police Department decided to change its policy to test all rape kits.
In February 2013, State Representative Frank McNulty introduced legislation that would require all law enforcement agencies to inventory any untested kits associated with "active" criminal investigations in their storage facilities and send them for testing. Governor John Hickenlooper signed the bill into law on June 5, 2013, and it went into effect immediately, making Colorado the third state to require the testing of every rape kit booked into evidence.
Within 90 days of the law's effective date, each law enforcement agency was to submit its inventory. Within 120 days, the agencies were to send the kits identified in the inventory to a lab for testing, and the Colorado Bureau of Investigation (CBI) was to present a plan to the Governor and state legislature for analyzing all of the submitted kits. Going forward, law enforcement agencies must submit kits to a crime lab within 21 days of collection. The law also allocated nearly $7 million for processing untested rape kits across the state.
In the month's following the law's enactment, police departments from across the state submitted inventories indicating a statewide total of 6,283 previously untested kits, including 1,212 in Colorado Springs, 998 in Denver, 416 in Aurora and 366 in Greeley. As of the September 5, 2013 deadline, 35 departments had yet to submit their numbers. Two months later, 32 departments' numbers were still outstanding.
Advocates expressed concerns that the statewide total may represent only a fraction of the state's untested rape kits due to the law's requirements being limited to "active" cases. They said the limitation left the requirements open to interpretation by individual departments.
In fact, CALL7 recently reported that despite the law, thousands of backlogged kits may continue to go untested. Colorado's Department of Public Safety, which was tasked with creating rules to implement the law, never defined "active." Instead, discretion as to which kits will be tested remains with individual law enforcement agencies, and CBI plans to test just 40% of the kits submitted pursuant to the law.
As of June 2014, CBI had sent the first batch of 175 kits to four different labs for analysis. Once the results returned from those kits, the Bureau planned to begin sending larger batches of kits for analysis.
Testing on 300 kits was completed as of September 2014. From those kits, there were 30 matches to known offender profiles in the national DNA database.

The Green Bay Packers defeated the St. Louis Rams by the score of 30-20.
A common criticism of quarterback Aaron Rodgers is his tendency to hold onto the ball too long in the pocket. While the knock on Rodgers is at times accurate, the Packers' quarterback also creates and extends plays by holding onto the ball and scrambling when the pocket breaks down.
Ultimately, Rodgers' football acumen and physical ability far outweigh his minor faults. And Sunday's critic-silencing effort was another example of why he is the reigning league MVP.
With no semblance of a rushing attack, Rodgers finished the day passing for 342 yards and 3 touchdowns. Earlier this season, Rodgers admitted that he wasn't getting it done, but it's safe to say that the past two weeks have marked his return to form.
Defensive Efforts
The Packers defense turned in an impressive overall effort against the Rams on Sunday, but a couple of individual players stood out.
Outside linebacker Erik Walden continues to be stout against the run and the pass. As the performance of the defense ebbs and flows from week to week, Walden's play remains consistent.
In Sunday's effort, Walden led the Green and Gold with nine tackles. He also added a sack, a tackle for a loss and two hits on the quarterback.
Perhaps more important than Walden's individual statistics, however, is his steady presence. Between Walden and rookie Dezman Moses, the Packers have forced opposing teams to pay attention to an outside linebacker not named Clay Matthews, which in turn, creates more favorable matchups for Matthews.
Rookie cornerback Casey Hayward also made his mark on Sunday. The defensive back out of Vanderbilt leapt up for an under thrown Sam Bradford pass in the third quarter to record his fourth interception in three games.
As a collegiate player, Hayward was known as a ballhawk, and seven games into his rookie year, he's bringing that label with him to the professional level.
Mr. Fourth Quarter
As exciting as utility man Randall Cobb has been for the Packers offense this season, no performance was as exhilarating as Sunday's fourth quarter feat.
With Steven Jackson and the Rams whittling the Packers lead to seven points midway through the fourth quarter, Cobb came up big on the ensuing drive.
On his way to a spectacular 39-yard touchdown catch, Cobb kept the drive alive with two separate third down receptions.
With each eye-popping performance, Randall Cobb is helping Packers fans get used to a future without Greg Jennings.
Forging An Identity
After a sputtering start to the year, the Packers are beginning to establish themselves. The offense is finding ways to win without Greg Jennings, young playmakers are emerging on both sides of the ball and the team's strong showing in the face of mounting injuries displays preparedness for the grind of a long season.
The Packers came away from Sunday's game without any major injuries and with the eventual return of Greg Jennings, B.J. Raji and others, the team should only get stronger as the season progresses.
Up Next
The Packers finally return home after a three game road trip. Next Sunday at noon, the Jacksonville Jaguars travel to Lambeau Field to face the Pack.

A sharp decline in corporate donations is forcing the popular City Park Jazz series to dip into its emergency funds and threatening the series' existence beyond 2011.
The free, 10-week concert series, which runs every Sunday between June 5 and Aug. 8, is hoping a last-minute plea will result in sturdier financial footing going into its 25th season.
"It's pretty dire this year," said president Chris Zacher, who assumed leadership of the nonprofit this year after serving last year as vice president and the previous two as treasurer. "We've just signed up Deep Rock Water as our presenting sponsor, but we're having a hard time getting corporate donations and individual concert sponsors, T-shirt sponsors and the bandshell sponsor."
The $15,000 that Deep Rock paid for its presenting sponsorship still leaves a huge hole for the concert series, which Zacher said will cost about $70,000 to produce this year — only $30,000 of which has been raised. That means City Park Jazz needs an additional $40,000 in the next few weeks or it will be forced to drain its reserve funds.

I seem to remember some protesters in penis costumes, I said, Googling. I had in mind a mascot-like friendly penis, maybe offering condoms, but the first thing I found was this (NSFW). What on earth?! Here's some explanation. It happened in Kiev. A Ukrainian feminist group called FEMEN, protesting — of all things — having the Euro 2012 soccer championships in Ukraine.
The women of FEMEN, whose mantra is "Came, Stripped, Conquered," dressed up in penis costumes and stood on a flower bed, strategically positioned between the legs of the soccer championship mascots Slavek and Slavko.Do you understand Euro-protest? So a lady dressed only in underpants and a — how shall I say? — headpiece is protesting... soccer? It's more like: if the soccer tournament is in Ukraine, it automatically implies sex tourism. Message received.
Yes, with Slavek and Slavko in a horizontal position, the ladies standing in their crotch area did manage to look like erect, uncircumcised penises.
ADDED: I resume my search for penis-costumed protesters. I found "Scrotie The Nads," the mascot on the Rhode Island School of Design (#1 on a top 10 list of "Weirdest Mascots"). Here's a woman dressed — fully clad — as a penis, with a sign that says "United We State 2 Protect Women's Health"). I found a report — no photo — of a protester in a penis costume with a sign saying "George Bush is a dick" (those were the days!). And if you ever need a penis costume, please buy it through my Amazon link.

Etisalat connects with Meydan`s Dubai World Cup Carnival this Thursday
The 2012 Dubai World Cup Carnival continues at Meydan on Thursday night with a seven race programme, sponsored by Etisilat, featuring the opening rounds of the Maktoum Challenges for Thoroughbreds and Purebred Arabians. Both races are 1600 metre contests on the all-weather track.
In the thoroughbred division Mendip, winner of the race 12 months ago, will be one of three to carry the familiar blue colours of locally based powerhouse Godolphin stables.
Hstory is against Frankie Dettori`s mount as no horse has won this race twice but trainer Saeed bin Suroor sounds hopeful of a big run and said: "We have given him a lovely break over the summer and he is fresh and very well indeed. He is working just as well as he was last year before the race and has a great draw in one. We have to be thinking he will run a big race but it looks a strong renewal. I also have Secrecy in the field and he has been going well on the [all-weather] at Al Quoz. This looks a good race to start him back."
Godolphin`s other trainer Mahmoud Al Zarooni, with three 2012 Carnival winners to his name already, relies on Xin Xu Lin, fifth in last year`s UAE Derby on his first start for Al Zarooni. A multiple Group One winner in South America he, like Mendip, has been given the summer off and Al Zarooni explained: "He ran well for a long way in the UAE Derby before tiring so we have freshened him up and he seems in really good form. The trip will be his minimum but I am expecting a good run."
Also doubly represented is South African trainer Mike de Kock with Christophe Soumillon riding Musir, suggesting he is slightly more fancied than Master Of Hounds, the mount of Kevin Shea.
Soumillon`s mount won the UAE Derby in 2010 (Mendip was third) and was last seen when winning a valuable turf prize in Turkey, whereas Shea`s horse was second in the 2011 UAE Derby when trained in Ireland by Aidan O`Brien and is having his first start for his new yard.
De Kock said: "Both are going well at home and pleasing us but I expect they will both improve a lot for the run. I think Musir is better on turf and this could be his only [all-weather] run this year, while Master Of Hounds is going to better over further I think. They are both ready for a run but it seems a strong race this year."
Last season`s UAE champion trainer Ali Rashid Al Raihe saddles Derbaas who has the advantage of a run after a good third on turf last week. His jockey Richard Hills said: "That was a good run last week and should have put him spot on for this. He is very good on both surfaces and we have a nice draw."
The Marco Botti-trained Fanunalter may prove best of two United Kingdom challengers, although Ed Vaughan`s Dance And Dance is a very capable performer also.
Classic clues should be offered in the UAE 2000 Guineas Trial Sponsored By Etisalat over 1400m on the all-weather track where de Kock is double-handed. Shea rides Enjoy Dubai who has to give weight to his 13 rivals having won in Group Three company in his native Argentina, with Soumillon on Mickdaam.
The trainer sounds hopeful, as opposed to confident, and said: "Enjoy Dubai may find the trip on the long side, whereas Mickdaam will need further I think but we need to get them on the track."
Bin Suroor`s Rassam, the mount of Dettori and Al Zarooni`s Kinglet, to be ridden by Mickael Barzalona, give Godolphin a another strong hand.
UK trainer Brian Meehan also saddles two, Right To Dream under Martin Dwyer and Mehdi, the mount of William Buick. Ireland is represented by Strait of Zanzibar and Bible Black, to be ridden by Shane Foley and Ryan Moore respectively.
Former UAE Champion jockey Ted Durcan rides Dark Matter, who has good form in Singapore.
No Risk Al Maury winner of the Purebred Arabian version in each of the past two season has retired from racing and his absence lends a very open look to the 2012 edition. Fryvolous was second 12 months ago and his new trainer Ernst Oertel currently has his team in great form.
No Risk Al Maury`s former trainer Gill Duffield relies on AF Alghabra who beat the Doug Watson- trained Kandar Du Falgas, owned, as was No Risk Al Maury, by His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Rashid Al Maktoum at their most recent clash.

$ cat exop.ldif dn: oid=184.108.40.206.4.1.4184.108.40.206,cn=features,cn=config objectClass: top objectClass: directoryServerFeature oid: 22.214.171.124.4.1.4220.127.116.11 cn: Password Modify Extended Operation aci: (targetattr != "aci") (version 3.0; acl "Password Modify Extended Operation"; allow( read, search, compare, proxy ) (roledn = "ldap:///cn=Password Managers,dc=example,dc=com" and authmethod = "SSL");) $ ldapmodify -a -D cn=admin,cn=Administrators,cn=config -w - -f exop.ldif Enter bind password: adding new entry oid=184.108.40.206.4.1.4184.108.40.206,cn=features,cn=config $
The entry under cn=features,cn=config allows you to manage access to operations that use the password modify extended operation.
Have the password administrator reset the user password.
This step unlocks the user account, and can be completed with the ldappasswd(1) command.
(Optional) If the user must change the password, have the password administrator notify the user.
Users must change their passwords after reset if the password policy that governs their entries includes pwdMustChange: TRUE.


text: This book is a comprehensive yet layman-friendly examination of accidents involving nuclear reactors, nuclear weapons, and radioactive materials from the beginning of the twentieth century to the Fukushima disaster in 2011. Many of the events are ordinary industrial accidents in the vicinity of nuclear materials, such as fires, nonnuclear explosions, and toxic spills. The author, a nuclear engineer, creates an engaging non-fiction narrative of mishaps and mistakes – beginning with early research in nuclear physics and production of radioactive substances through the development of nuclear weapons and power plants. He provides insights into conditions leading to the accidents and responses to them. The informative book is well-researched and includes much descriptive detail

Popular messaging services such as WhatsApp and iMessage will not be banned after the British government confirmed the upcoming Investigatory Powers Bill will not restrict encryption in the country.
The news comes as Home Secretary Theresa May outlined new powers that will primarily help target and combat paedophiles and terrorists online.
Critics had warned changes will affect the lives of everyone who uses everyday technology such as smartphones and tablets.
WhatsApp, which is owned by Facebook, has more than 900 million active monthly. According to Apple, last year their device users sent over 300 billion messages using iMessage and the firm said it delivers an average of 28,000 messages per second.
The messaging services faced the prospect of a ban or at the very least stricter controls because its use of encryption makes it too private for the security services to access.
Both the US and UK governments had expressed growing concerns that criminals and terrorists are making use of such services to communicate, knowing that they are completely private.
It had been mooted that the Conservative government was looking to include an 'end-to-end encryption ban' – protecting people from hacking into private communications on services likes WhatsApp and iMessage – in the bill.
Instead the new legislation will see authorities have access to everything your phone and computer does. That information will then be stored for a year.
But the apparent step-down might be because the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000, which the new bill is intended to update, already gives the Government the power to access much of information.

A new study that 2 million of the nation's 12 million scientists identify as evangelical Christians. In other words, if you were to convene all the evangelical scientists, they could populate the city of Houston.
The finding is the first to be made public from the largest study of American views on science and religion, which sociologist Elaine Howard Ecklund and her colleagues at Rice University and the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) wrapped up in early 2014. Seventeen percent of scientists said "evangelical" describes them "somewhat" or "very well," compared to 23 percent of all respondents.
It's a dramatically higher percentage than found in Ecklund's 2010 survey of scientists at top universities: only about 2 percent identified as evangelical. The new survey, by contrast, focused on "rank and file" scientists, including those in health care, life sciences, computers, and engineering.
The new survey also found that the same number of people in the general public perceive hostility by religious people toward science as perceive hostility by scientists toward religion—about 1 in 5. But among evangelical scientists, a strong majority (57 percent) perceive hostility from scientists toward religion. That suggests Christians in scientific fields have negative experiences with fellow scientists in the workplace regarding their faith.
Evangelical scientists are more active in their faith than American evangelicals in general, the survey indicates. They are more likely to consider themselves very religious, to attend religious services weekly, and to read religious texts at least every week.
As scientists at AAAS plan to engage more ...1

Irvine, Calif. – UC Santa Barbara limited Cal State Northridge to just 31 points in a convincing victory in the Big West Quarterfinals at the Bren Events Center on Wednesday night. The Gauchos showed that they benefited from their first round bye by easily advancing to the Big West Tournament Semifinals with the 45-31 win over CSUN.
"We will enjoy this victory for tonight," senior Kirsten Tilleman said in her initial thoughts on the win. "But we know we have a lot more work to do in this tournament."
With the victory, UCSB has now gone 3-0 against the Matadors this season. Going into the matchup, the Gauchos were the only team to keep the Matadors under 40 points, and they were able to do it for a second time by limiting CSUN to just 31 points off a dismal 24% shooting from the field.
Even though the Gauchos came into the game as defending Big West Champs, they showed that they were still prone to postseason nerves. After recording a steal on the Matadors' opening possession, Sweets Underwood miss fired the ball out of bounds on her pass intended for Nicole Nesbit with no defenders in sight. But as they have done all season, the Gauchos shook off the bad play and looked ahead to capitalize on their future opportunities.
Nesbit gladly spearheaded this approach for her team in the first half. The junior guard had eight of her 12 total points in the first half, including consecutive jump shots to keep CSUN at bay early on. After sinking those buckets, Nesbit had the Gauchos up 12-5 with 11:21 to play in the first half.
Sweets Underwood led the floor with 16 points and 9 rebounds. Underwood was kept quiet in the first half, only recording six points, but she was able to help her team close the game out midway through the second.
Underwood scored eight straight points for UCSB starting with 9:08 left to play. After knocking down four free throws and a jumper, Underwood capped off the stretch with a layup to give UCSB their largest lead of the night at 41-25.
The Gauchos didn't allow any Matador to score in double-digits. Violet Alama led CSUN with nine points, shooting 3-6 from the field.
The Matadors came into the game as the fourth best three-point shooting team in the conference with a collective 30.5% from beyond the arc, but they were shutout from their long range shots by the Gaucho defense, going 0-12. UCSB is the only team this season to not allow a single three-pointer to fall for CSUN.
UCSB played the game in the same venue where they started their Big West Championship a year ago. While that coincidence may have had some of the fans feeling nostalgic, the team is solely focused on what's happening now.
"What we started last season [at UC Irvine] was great," Tilleman said. "But now we're just focused on playing for another championship."
To get back to the championship game, UCSB will have to go through a team they have not beaten the past two seasons, Cal Poly. The Mustangs are the second seeded team in the Big West and will make their tournament debut in semifinals on Friday, as they earned byes through the first two rounds. Tipoff is slated for 2:30pm at the Honda Center. The game can be heard on AM 1290, UCSBgauchos.com and viewed on BigWest.tv.
