Gillette's well-known farce-comedy ushered

sufficient power to draw, nut a crowd, but
enough people to comfortably seat the

in the laughter that some of the situa

the minds of thinking people whether the
business on the stage or funny business out

opened caused the hilarious demonstration.

While Director Locke is commonly sup

He receives a very large salaiy for his man

sonally caunot be paid by the Treasurer
of the organization unless duo Locke on
account of services. It is a supposable
conjecture tbat a few wealthy individuals
are supporters of the present admirable
productions, and Locke is best fitted by ex
perience, popularity with artists aud reputa
tion with tliegrent public for giving grand
performances to bring the Juch Opera to a
nigh aud successful position. This year bus

Prediction of PKCθ Inhibitory Activity Using the Random Forest Algorithm
AbstractThis work is devoted to the prediction of a series of 208 structurally diverse PKCθ inhibitors using the Random Forest (RF) based on the Mold2 molecular descriptors. The RF model was established and identified as a robust predictor of the experimental pIC50 values, producing good external R2pred of 0.72, a standard error of prediction (SEP) of 0.45, for an external prediction set of 51 inhibitors which were not used in the development of QSAR models. By using the RF built-in measure of the relative importance of the descriptors, an important predictor—the number of group donor atoms for H-bonds (with N and O)―has been identified to play a crucial role in PKCθ inhibitory activity. We hope that the developed RF model will be helpful in the screening and prediction of novel unknown PKCθ inhibitory activity. View Full-Text

The Kessler Kwik Rail is custom machined threaded speed rail that can be configured into variable lengths for use with Shuttle Dolly and other speed rail compatible dollies on the market today. What makes Kwik Rail unique is that by eliminating the need for connectors or coupling devices to attach two pieces of rail together we've eliminated those unnecessary parts that can get lost and introduce more seams to the dolly rail and instead designed Kwik Rail to have the rails themselves threaded. The integrated Kwik Thread™ design makes the connection between rail sections very secure and incredibly fast, up to four times faster than traditional speed rail - saving time, money and frustration on set.
The Kwik Rail comes in two sizes, 4' (42.375") and 2' (23.875") and includes aluminum thread protectors that will ensure your threads are not damaged during travel or in-use. The anodized 6061 T6 aluminum schedule 80 pipe used for the Kwik Rail has thicker walls than many other speed rails available, increasing durability and ensuring maximum weight bearing, yet is drastically lighter than traditional steel speed rail. The precision grind on the Kwik Rail is second to none and provides a seamless transition from section to section.
There's zero question, when you purchase the Kessler Kwik Rail you are getting the absolute highest quality variable length screw together rail available.
Kwik Rail 21" (set of 2)
The Kwik Rail 21" set provides users with 2 pieces of 21" custom machined threaded speed rail and 2 custom machined protective end caps.
Kwik Rail 42" (set of 2)
The Kwik Rail 42" set provides users with 2 pieces of 42" custom machined threaded speed rail and 2 custom machined protective end caps.
Kwik Rail Leg System
The complete Kwik Rail Leg System provides users with everything they need to use Kwik Rail as the supports for the Shuttle Dolly, including four 42' Kwik Rail segments used as the legs, four Kwik Rail Clamps that feature a safety-lock mechanism for attaching the legs to the dolly track rail and four rubber Kwik Rail Foot Adapters.

NLL Championship: Toronto Rock and Washington Stealth Rematch SetMay 9, 2011
Toronto Rock Punch Ticket to Second Championship Game
Toronto secured their second straight trip to the NLL title game after they defeated the top-seeded Buffalo Bandits 12-11 in the Eastern Division Final on Saturday at HSBC Arena in Buffalo, N.Y.
"We just couldn't get 60 minutes of all three phases of the game," said Buffalo head coach Darris Kilgour to NLL.com. "Story of our season."
At the beginning of the second quarter, the chance for a spot in the NLL championship game looked bleak for the Bandits, as the Rock held a commanding 6-0 lead. However, after replacing Mike Thompson in net with Angus Goodleaf, Buffalo began its comeback and made it a 7-6 game. But the Rock answered, as Stephan Leblanc scored two goals in 30 seconds extended Toronto's lead to 9-6 at the half.
The Rock added two more while the Bandits were only able to find the back of the net once in the third. Buffalo found its rhythm in the fourth, scoring the final four goals of the contest. The difference came early in the fourth quarter when Toronto's Garrett Billings scored short-handed for what would be the game-winner.
"Fortunately, we held onto the one goal and get to go back to the championship," said Toronto head coach Troy Cordingley to NLL.com.
Buffalo's season is now over after the Bandits dominated the second part of their 2011 campaign and surpassed the Rock for the top spot in the East in the final weeks of the season.
However, it was Buffalo's early six-goal deficit that ultimately hampered the East's best team.
"Kudos to us for coming back and making a game of it, but it definitely wasn't in the playbook for us to get off like that," said Bandits forward Kyle Clancy to NLL.com of the team's poor start. "You spend a lot of energy coming back. It just wasn't in the cards."
The story coming into the game was the play of Buffalo's 20-year veteran John Tavares, who scored the game-winner last week against Boston in the Eastern Division Semifinals. However, Tavares couldn't do the same damage against Toronto, as he was a late scratch on Saturday with a calf injury.
"[It] would have been a lot easier if we had a week to prepare for it, or if he was out this morning," Kilgour said of Tavares' late scratch to NLL.com. "Having a guy like that is a huge bonus. I definitely think that affected us."
Tavares was replaced by Clancy, who led Buffalo on the score sheet with four goals and one assist. Teammate Roger Vyse finished right behind Clancy with three goals.
Billings had the biggest night for Toronto, as he finished with three goals and three assists, while Leblanc also had a hat trick.
The Rock will look for their sixth NLL title and their first since 2005 next Sunday in the championship game.
Stealth Get Chance at Back-to-Back Titles
The Washington Stealth, a team that finished the regular season with an 8-8 record, will now have the chance to be the first club since the 2002-3 Toronto Rock to repeat as NLL champions.
Washington defeated the best team in the league, the Calgary Roughnecks, 10-8 on Saturday in the Western Division Final at the Scotiabank Saddledome in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
"We were very well prepared," said Washington head coach Chris Hall to NLL.com. "We watched a lot of video on what they do 5-on-5. We talked about if we are going to repeat, we are going to have to grind it out defensively and eliminate the easy goals."
Early on it looked like the Roughnecks were going to the championship after they took a 3-0 lead late into the first quarter. However, a short-handed goal by Rhys Duch lit the Stealth's offense and defense, as it was the beginning of a seven-goal run for Washington and a 30-minute scoreless drought for Calgary.
The Roughnecks began their comeback late in the third quarter with three straight goals, but with less than six minutes to play, Washington found the back of the net once again with two goals to extend the lead. Curtis Dickson and Dane Dobbie scored in the final four minutes for the Riggers, but the Stealth held on for the victory.
Calgary forward Kaleb Toth said that the team only has itself to blame for the loss.
"I think we kind of beat ourselves, turning over the ball too much, getting out-hustled, but that happens in lacrosse," Toth said to NLL.com.
The Roughnecks dominated the Western Division during the year and picked up some big wins in the final weeks of the season to secure the top overall seed in the playoffs. Calgary's success might have been a surprise to some people, as Washington was the favorite win the league title.
Now that Calgary will be watching the title game from home, Roughnecks head coach Dave Pym said he is proud of his team's hard work during the year.
"We are just bitterly disappointed given everything this team has been through this year. It's very emotional in the room and I'm just sad for the boys," Pym said to NLL.com. "We win as a team and lose as a team and I couldn't have been more proud of the boys in the room after what they have gone through this year. They can hold their heads high and be very proud and I'm certainly proud to be standing here with them."
Lewis Ratcliff and Jeff Zywicki led Washington in scoring with three goals each. Ratcliff also added four assists, while Zywicki added three assists. Scott Ranger was the leading points-getter for Calgary with five (one goal and four assists), while Daryl Veltman led the team in goals with two.
The Stealth will now play the Rock in a rematch of last year's finals on Sunday at 2 p.m. EDT. The big difference might be where the contest will be played, as the game will be at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto, while last year's matchup was at Comcast Arena in Everett, Wash.
"We managed to sneak one on them last year, and now we have a rematch and this time it is in their barn," Hall said to NLL.com.
The NLL championship game will be broadcast live on VERSUS in the U.S. and on the NLL Network at NLL.com. TSN2 will re-air the game later in the day at 5 p.m. EDT in Canada.

For Immediate Release

Justification for Privatized Poultry Inspection Flawed, GAO Study Reveals
WASHINGTON - Today, the Government Accountability Office (GAO) released a scathing analysis of the HACCP-based Inspection Models Project (HIMP) in poultry slaughter, the pilot project that USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is using to justify its proposal to privatize poultry inspection in some 200 poultry plants across the country. The proposed "Modernization of Poultry Inspection" rule published by FSIS on January 27, 2012, would remove most FSIS inspectors from the slaughter lines and replace them with untrained company employees, allowing processing companies to police themselves. It would also permit chicken plants to increase line speeds to 175 birds-per-minute. FSIS has received hundreds of thousands of comments from consumers opposed to this change.
"The GAO saw through the euphemistically named 'modernization' proposal and confirmed our fears that FSIS does not have the scientific basis to justify privatizing poultry inspection," said Food & Water Watch Executive Director Wenonah Hauter. "Since 2008 we've known that the HIMP model jeopardizes food safety and this latest GAO report will hopefully serve as a wake-up call for the elimination for HIMP in order to protect consumers."
The GAO report, requested by Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), chair of the Senate Agriculture Subcommittee on Livestock, Dairy, Poultry, Marketing and Agriculture Security, evaluated 20 young chicken and five young turkey plants and reveals gaping methodological flaws in the pilot project. The GAO also questioned how FSIS could use its flawed evaluation of the pilot project as the basis to propose expanding the privatized inspection model across the entire poultry industry.
"Food & Water Watch called for such a review when we first learned in 2011 that the Obama Administration proposed expanding HIMP across the entire industry and we commend Senator Gillibrand for requesting this independent review of HIMP," said Hauter. "The GAO report shows that by supporting HIMP, the Obama Administration is prioritizing poultry industry economic interests over consumers and workers in poultry plants who face faster line speeds and increased safety risks."
The USDA thwarted attempts to have any public meetings on their proposal and prevented its own National Advisory Committee on Meat and Poultry Inspection from conducting an evaluation of HIMP or making any recommendations on the proposed rule.
Yesterday, the Southern Poverty Law Center and a coalition of civil rights groups filed a formal petition urging the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) to issue new work speed standards in meat and poultry plans and for FSIS to reconsider its proposed rule change for poultry inspection.
"For FSIS to truly 'modernize' poultry inspection, the Obama Administration needs to get the legal authority from Congress to hold companies accountable for putting contaminated food into commerce, not deregulate inspection. It's time to take a good hard look at the poor management of FSIS, withdraw the flawed rule and restore the funding in the FY 2014 FSIS budget to keep independent and trained FSIS inspectors on the job."

Hello, all. As you may have noticed, we have somewhat hit a huge hiatus. But have no fear! The staff are still working on things behind the scenes. And in these last few months we've gained some people. If you want project status updates, check the side bar. And for anyone who cares here are the big points of what's happened these last few months:
- HP has joined the team and will be assisting Mai translate Mirumo de Pon
- Onibaba Saizen has joined the Jewelpet team and will assist us in TLC'ing the scripts.
- I was helping out Robo for a while with Medarot, but I had to disappear for a few months with no word, and I can't really find them anymore (._.')
- We got a translator to translate Eien no Filena, so we have that all translated, we've just got to finish it up with some folks and that'll be out hopefully soon.

Sound off
Kernels - Tuesday, July 29, 2014
Welcome to the latest edition of Kernels From the Cornfield - No Husks, No Hulls, No Shucks!
News with a dash of commentary to spice up your fare for Tuesday, July 29th, 2014.
Health conditions continue to limit my ability to recap the news and provide my take of current events in a video format.
With that said here are the headlines and current events with a seasoning of opinion thrown in here and there to add flavor.
1. Weather Shenanigans - June may have been the hottest since records began being kept, but July is marching the opposite direction.
This morning's temperature in the Cornfield of 52 was one degree shy of matching the record low for this date set in 1881. July is on course to being one of the coolest in history.
Meteorologists are telling us to blame typhoon activity in Asia. According to the "experts" as the typhoons have tracked north out of the Indian and Pacific Oceans, there has been pressure put on Arctic air dispelling it from the polar region and into the heartland of the North American continent.
2. Escalating Concern - There are two pieces of news coming out of the same region of eastern Europe today.
The US military is citing Ukraine with upping the ante in the struggle to regain control of territory bordering Russia with the launch of short-range ballistic missiles aimed at pro-Russian separatists. The bombs reportedly exploded within 15 miles of the crash site of Malaysian Flight 17.
The Ukrainian government is in a push to secure the crash site to allow international investigators unfettered access. Rebel forces, however, are reported to have come to an agreement a few days ago to open the site to Malaysian officials.
Investigators are tired of it all and getting fed up with both sides. Investigators want into the site no matter who is in control.
The second troubling development is the US is accusing Russia of violating a missile treaty signed in the 1980s between President Ronald Reagan and President Mikhail Gorbachev on the use and testing of certain types of missiles.
3. Sanction War - The European nations seem to have had enough - almost - of Russia defying requests to de-escalate tension with Ukraine. The Europeans disclosed additional, more sever sanctions being placed on Russia.
While a step forward, the sanctions were put in place with an eye on European economic stability and concern over Russian energy.
Nearly an hour after the announced time to speak, President Barack Obama announced shortly before 4 p.m. new sanctions on Russia. These sanctions are in addition to those announced earlier in the day by the European nations.
4. Which Lives Are Worth Outrage? - The sounds in the United Nations Security Council are of those outraged and crying out about the loss of Palestinian civilians in Gaza. The media is filled with the stories about civilians, women and children dying during the current Israeli-Hamas conflict.
Yet in hot spots across the globe civilians, women and children are dying caught between warring factions. Those lives seem to not attract the attention of the UN nor of the media. In the US of A, primarily in our inner cities, the body count rises almost daily without demonstrations or marching on Washington.
This lead me today to write an op-ed: Selective Concern for Life?
5. Just Go Away! - Donald Sterling has been found incompetent by a probate court judge. This allows his estranged wife, Shelley, to go ahead with plans to sell the Los Angeles Clippers to former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer for $2 billion.
6. Pay Now or Pay More Later - The Administration is pressing lawmakers to take action to curtail the effects of humans on the climate. Failure to do so, according to the Administration, will make dealing with issues later cost more.
According to the Administration, inactivity to deal with the climate could cost the nation $150 billion. Reportedly after analyzing 16 reports, the price tag to deal with repairs and recovery, declining crop yields will rise 40% for each decade nothing is done to curtail human impact on climate change.
Industry groups and others strongly disagree with the Administration's assessment.
The push for legislation to deal with the issue came out the same day the Environmental Protection Agency began a series of public "listening sesions" on the propose Clean Power Plan to limit carbon emissions from existing power plants.
7. No Safer - Lieutenant General Michael Flynn, Director of the Defense Intelligence Agency, told the Aspen Security Forum last week the US of A is no safer today than it was before the tragedy of 9/11.
The General also disagreed with the Administration's assertment that Al Qaeda is on the run. In fact the General said,
"We have a whole gang of new actors out there that are far more extreme than Al Qaeda."
8. Ebola Scare - A Minnesotan died at the airport in Nigeria from Ebola. Two American doctors have been infected.
Patrick Sawyer has died before he had the chance to return home. Our thoughts and prayers with his family.
The concern is that the disease, fatal 90% of the time, may not be able to be contained to Nigeria and Africa. The concern is how the diesease, which is transferred by bodily fluids, may be spread to the rest of the world.
The concern of Ebola escaping Nigeria is so fear-inspiring that the nation of Liberia has shut down its borders in an attempt to keep anyone infected from traveling into the nation, founded by freed American slaves, and becoming an epidemic there as well.
Question is how soon and how prepared is the US for the disease should it reach our shores?
9. Conflicting Beliefs - Senate Intelligence Committee Chairwoman Diane Feinstein, the senior Senator from California, on Sunday told Candy Crowley on CNN's State of the Union when asked point blank if the US of A and Russia were once more in a Cold War, "Yes."
President Obama when asked the same question today during his 3:45 p.m. address to the press about new sanctions on Russia, said, "No. It doesn't have to be this way."
So who has it right?
The Commander-in-Chief?
The Intelligence Chairwoman?
10. Only in the Cornfield - Shaking my head as I sit in Mark's Den this Tuesday evening. A federal grand jury has indicted former Clark County Indiana Sheriff Daniel N. Rodden for lying to Federal Bureau of Investigations agents and advising a woman to dispose of evidence - a uniform and a deputy's badge.
The woman in question was a prostitute whom the sheriff is alledged to have had relations. Alledgedly, he gave the woman the uniform and badge to obtain discounts on hotel rooms.
The sheriff resigned a few weeks ago over his relationship with a prostitute.
Rodden is the second Indiana sheriff caught in a federal sting of engaging in interstate traffic with prostitutes. Former Boone County Sheriff Ken Campbell resigned last month over a similar investigation.
No charges for Campbell.
That's what caught my attention for Tuesday, July 29th, 2014.
Tune in tomorrow for another episode of Kernels From the Cornfield.
I am Mark Ivy.
Good evening!

A bit of trouble entering my anus at first, but with a lot of lube and my wife's tender care - we made it! MAN it feels good! Recommend to all couples with an open mind!
By Carlos, Jasper, Canada
The length is good, but the girth was TOO MUCH!!! I'm just tiny, and it felt like it was ripping me apart!
By Kim L, New York City
It took us a few minutes to figure out how to put it together when we first took it out of the box, but now we can just sit back and enjoy our toy! It's the perfect size for me (I love my dicks big!) and my husband loves watching it enter me. Definite must-have for any good toy collection!
By Emma J, Las Vegas
A great toy for man or woman. It can be fit many sizes of people. Is very comfortbale for wear. Very smooth shaft, so slides in easily even though is wide.
By Dasha, Russia
A strap-on that doesn't chince on size - fills me up well, and my boyfriend doesn't have to worry about going flacid half way through. (thank god)
By Sydney, Long Beach, CA
My man and I have had hours of fun with this strap-on!! He used to last only 30 minutes, and now we have marathon sex sessions - AMAZEBALLS!
By Carrie M, BC, Canada
LOVE IT! Great size, comfortable harness. My girlfriend and I take turns using this wide beast on each other on a regular basis.
By Greg W, North Dakota
About 7.5 inches of insertable length, but it's 2 inches wide! Definitely for those who love size! I came almost instantly once it was fully inserted!!!
By Janice G, Holland
There's not much texture to the shaft which was a bit disappointing.
By Sarah A, West Virginia
I blindfolded my wife and then put this baby on. You should have seen the look on her face when I entered her! She couldn't believe it was actually me. She was so wet it slid right in. Best husband of the year right here!!!!!
By Chuck, Burlington, Vermont
Nice size. Good quality. Amazing price The description was spot on.
By Gill, Canada
Great dildo. Nice and wide, but smooth and easy to enter. Would recommend.
By Miranda T, Bellevue, WA
My husband isn't huge "down there". We have used big dongs before, but he's not that big on watching me play with them. With this, he gets to feel like he's giving me a huge member, and my moaning and groaning puts him over the top. Love the size, and he says it's very comfortable to wear.
By Tina, Chicago, IL
Perfect! Exactly as described, and exactly what we wanted! Really good price too!
By Sandra R., Montreal, Canada
My boyfriend has trouble lasting much longer than 15 minutes. This helps him last much longer, and our sex life is better by probably 500%!
By Jenna L., Missouri
It's not too wide, but the stiffness made it a hard to enter my husbands anus. Not sure if that's because we're inexperienced, or because of the toy itself. Great price for a whole set though!
By Tracy. S, Hawaii
The harness was pretty comfortable, and the dildo a good size. Worth the money paid.
By Rick , Los Angeles, CA
I wasn't sure about the hollow dildo, since we're both girls, but it worked really well, and it's one of our top 10 toys.
By C. Powers, New Mexico
Great toy overall. The veiny texture is nice, but I wish it was a bit more flexible.
By Carol, Canada
Big enough that you can feel it inside, but not too big that it's a chore to get in. Just under two inches in girth and 5 inches long - a good average size. We use it often
By Ben & Marie, Wisconsin
My husband doesn't like the way it feels on top of his "member". Total lunchbag letdown.
By Anita, Helena, MT
Works great on both my husband and I. I love getting the chance to dominate him from behind. It makes me feel really sexy and powerful. 5 stars for sure!
By Marilyn, Hamilton, Canada
We oringially bought this when my husband was having erectile difficulties, but since then I've started taking my turn wearing it for him. Nothing sexier than dominating my masculine husband from behind. The harness is pretty comfortable, and it fits both of us fine.
By Karla K, Rhode Island
My girlfriend and I like taking turns using it on eachother. I'm anal curious, and this is the perfect size for serious thrills. And when I use it on her, and can keep going and going - just like the energizer bunny! No matter which way we use it, we both absolutely LOVE IT!
By Chris T, California

Michael Medved in USA Today hopes that Sarah Palin will withdraw from the race for president. If she does, "it may terminate the current dysfunctional cycle of unwarranted hostility feeding unjustified support, clearing our muddied political culture by placing Sarah Palin in proper perspective."
Sarah Palin: a vicious cycle
6 Responses
First off, Medved has been on an anti-Palin jag for at least a year. If you listen to his show he has touted Huckabee, Huntsman, Romney, and several others in their turn. He's constantly denouncing Palin for consuming all the oxygen, and not allowing the campaigns of "serious candidates" to catch fire. If these "serious candidates" can't handle an oxygen consuming Palin, when she isn't even a candidate yet, just how are they going to handle an oxygen consuming 0bama and his army of media minions? Medved never has been asked that question, and apparently has not thought of it himself. Medved's "serious candidates" look less and less "serious" all the time.
Why is it even necessary to point out how mind-numbingly stupid someone would have to be to give any serious consideration to this clueless pandering self-serving ego driven harpy?
Sarah may be dumb as a box of rocks but hey, she's H-O-T and that's all that matters, right? Help Sarah help herself and keep reading and looking. She's making millions off selling her image, because it sure isn't her wit that's getting her this far. You can see just how scandalous she can get at http://dregstudiosart.blogspot.com/2011/06/ecstasy-of-sarah-palin_15.html
And the power of Sarah Palin over John de Rosier increases.
Brandt – Sarah Palin's shallow good looks only hide the ugliness just below her skin, that runs all the way to the bone. Hot she is not.
Bubblehead is good looking? Then I must be an absolute goddess…

'straight up, guys! on the tennis court, it matters little if you win or lose. but, you must look cool!! these shorts will help you do this.'...;-)
I have bought these short a couple of times, but now it seems that the size of these shorts have become much bigger and now I'm stuck with a huge pair of shorts that are way too big. I ordered XL as in the past and on my last order the XL were really huge.
Just got these. They are so comfortable and wearable, better than the ALL cotton tennis shorts I've been wearing by Fred Perry. And they look great.
