Tuesday, July 09, 2013 - Walter and Radim - Screen Test RAW - FULL CONTACT
Walter and Radim - Screen Test RAW - FULL CONTACT
We brought Radim Hora in for a screentest, after he told us that he wanted to try guy-guy sex. We paired him up with the sexy Walter Uwe who has lots of experience. Walter chats with Radim, who admits to having kissed a guy before and would like to do it again. They lean into each other and begin to kiss, with their hands running over each other. Walter reaches into Radim's underwear, and then quickly helps him take them off. Radim does the same to Walter, taking hold of his hard cock. They kiss again and Walter goes down on Radim's cock and begins to suck it. He alternates between sucking and kissing and then sits up, so that Radim can suck on him. Radim's lips wrap tight around the cock and he sucks like a natural, wanking the cock as well. Kissing some more Walter then has a quick suck on Radim's dick again before pulling his legs in the air and focussing on his hot ass hole. With the cheeks spread Walter rims that tight hole and then slides a finger inside. Radim plays with his cock as Walter loosens that hole with his finger and wets it with his tongue. Walter is really into his new friend, He kisses him again and sucks that cock again then he plays with the hole some more. Radim is keen to show that he can do it real good too and goes back down on Walter's throbbing dick as Walter wanks him. Then Walter decides to test Radim further, having him turn over, and slides his big cock deep into his ass. His cock works in and out of that virgin ass with his balls slapping against the ass. Radim loves it and fondles himself as he takes that dick. Then Walter lays on the bed, so that Radim can take his first ride on a big hard cock. He really slides up and down on that dick before Walter takes over and fucks hard and fast. That hole is stretched real well and Radim is proving that he really can take it all. He turns around and rides that big cock some more before they move to a spoon position and Walter really starts to pound that ass as hard as he can. Radim is rock hard and wank himself as his ass gets fucked. He is loving it and the wanking speeds up until he pumps his cum out of that cock. Walter is eager to shoot his load too and kneels over Radim, shooting his cream all over the face. Radim then sucks the cock into his mouth to drain it completely before the guys end with a final kiss. What a great screentest, with Radim proving just how good he is and Walter showing once again what a hot stud he is.

Our Coming Soon Set Preview
Wank Party 2013 #5 has four really good models, in Jan Faust, Lukas Pribyl, Robert Drtina and Borek Sokol. In this second part we find Lukas leaning over the weights machine, with Jan's dick deep inside him. Robert is laying on the training bench, legs in the air as Borek fucks him. Borek and Jan are new tops and are really doing a great job. They move around so that Borek is laying down with Lukas sitting his ass right down on that hard cock. As he rides that dick Robert does the same for Jan's throbbing dick. Borek fucks his cock right up into Lukas hot hole. Then they all move again, with Lukas and Robert on their knees, facing each other and kissing as Borek and Jan swap partners again. As they get fucked nice and hard Robert and Lukas wank themselves. Robert keeps on wanking as he is getting fucked, until his shoots a very nice load. He is followed by Lukas who quickly dumps his cum as well. Jan and Borek then sit next to each other, kissing as they wank their hard cocks, with Robert and Lukas behind them, kissing as well. As they wanks themselves faster and faster it is a race to see who will cum first. Borek is the winner, he cum squirting out of his rock hard dick. Then Jan is ready too, his big, upward curved cock throbbing as his balls get so tight. Then his cum erupts out of his cock too. Having all spent their loads our horny guys go off to the shower to help each other clean up.

We'll be shooting our next Wank Party this week and I'm looking forward making a Backstage video. Pleasantly hot outside today.
Well, there've been more stories regarding the Czech political crisis. It now appears that the outgoing Prime Minister may face criminal charges. If this happens it will be the first time ever since the fall of Communism
Below is an excellent account of the scandal written by a non-native English speaker.
Our line-up is a stellar cast today. We start with Radim Hora's Screentest, with Walter Uwe. Then we see Daniel Just's Massage, Fero Stylak in a very good erotic video and finally Jan Faust's session stills.
We also have a nice castings line-up with Ondrej Taborsky, Martin Polka, Jindra Kaba and Artur Horvat. They all look good to me, but my pick will be Jindra Kaba.

This is a guest post by Rick Scott, a Canadian philosopher-geek who's interested in how we can collaborate to make technology work better for everyone. This post appeared on his blog for Ada Lovelace Day 2011.
Audrey Tang is far and away the most awesome hacker I've ever had the privilege to have worked with. She's best known for creating Pugs, a perl6 implementation in Haskell. Though it's now semi-retired in favour of the newer implementations that it had a role in inspiring, it represented a huge leap forward and a quantum shift in Perl6 development at a time when enthusiasm around Perl6 was sorely flagging. She was the first CPAN contributor to have uploaded 100 modules. She's the key figure behind Perl 5's internationalization, as well as the i18n of many, many other individual pieces of software. She was part of the committee that designed the Haskell 2010 standard, and has made innumerable other contributions to the open source community.
I never got seriously involved with Pugs, but many of the things Audrey did with it shaped my thinking around open source, community, and how we should collaborate. First was the idea that a project should be optimized for fun (-Ofun1), not for control, or strict adherence to the founder's vision, or anything else. Second, whereas many open source projects keep a very tight rein on who has commit access and make getting a commit bit an arduous process, Audrey aggressively gave out commit bits to anybody who happened to wander by in the general vicinity of Pugs. Got a great idea? Here's a commit bit, go implement it. Notice something missing in the docs? Here's a commit bit; go add it. Ranting in IRC that something's not working? Here's a commit bit; go fix it. Extending this trust makes people feel welcome and want to contribute. It fosters an air of community instead of making prospective new participants feel as though they are looking at climbing (or worse, building) a pyramid.
Audrey would likely demur at my calling her brilliant, but it's a fitting descriptor for her. She has a unique and penetrating insight into code and an uncanny knack for encouraging the people who write it. I count myself as fortunate to have been able to work with her and to be part of a few of the communities she's had such a profound impact on.
1 -Ofun: -O is the compiler option that tells it how you want your code optimized. Audrey's presentation on -Ofun [pdf] talks more about how to maximize the amount of fun in your software project.

The company has launched a campaign to crack down on fare dodgers across the county, and has revealed that the most common journey where people are caught travelling without a ticket is from Glossop to Manchester Piccadilly (174 journeys).
Eighty three passengers were caught fare dodging from New Mills Central and 63 from Dinting even though all three stations have staffed ticket offices (New Mills and Dinting during morning peak hours).
Alex Hynes, Managing Director of Northern, said: "We hear all sorts of excuses from passengers as to why they don't have a ticket - they don't have any money or a conductor did not come down the train and sell them one. It's the passenger's responsibilty to buy a ticket, so they must seek out the conductor to get one or if that is not possible, then buy a ticket at their destination station.
"We know that some of our smaller stations have limited opportunities to buy tickets, and we are investing in new ticket buying facilities and currently carrying out independent surveys across the network to gain information on how our customers want to purchase tickets."
As part of the campaign, Northern has launched two online videos and a series of station and train posters showing two scenarios where someone takes something for free.

LeEco To Buy US TV Manufacturer Vizio For $2 Billion This Year
Subject: General Tech | July 28, 2016 - 03:52 PM | Tim Verry
Tagged: vizio, LeEco, China, business
Chinese technology company LeEco (SZSE: 300104) will purchase US television manufacture Vizio (NASDAQ: VZIO (not trading)) in a deal worth $2 Billion USD set to close in the fourth quarter of this year.
LeEco plans to acquire Vizio's hardware and software divisions and run the US company as a wholly owned subsidiary while spinning off Vizio's Inscape television viewership data arm as a privately held company. With approximately 400 employees, yearly revenue in the billions ($3.1 billion in 2014), and at least 20% of the US television market, the acquisition would allow LeEco to enter the US market in a big way. Vizio is best known in the US for its televisions where it is a respected brand, but the company also produces ultrabooks, tablets, smartphones, and sound bars. It is a private US-based company with manufacturing in Mexico and China.
Founded in 2004, LeEco is involved in a number of technology related fields across China, India, and soon the US. The Vizio brand (and partnerships such as the one with Walmart to carry its TVs) alone will be instrumental in LeEco's plans to break into the US market which has been resistant to Chinese brands making inroads (Lenovo apparently being the exception, but even Lenovo was not able to get its smartphones into the US market in a big way). The company of 5000+ employees is involved in Internet TV, video production and distribution, e-commerce, smartphones, tablets, gadgets, home automation, and even (soon) driverless cars.The company had 2014 revenue of $1.6 billion.
It is interesting to see all of the buy outs of US tech companies by overseas companies. To be clear, I don't necessarily think that these deals are a bad thing or being done with malicious intentions, but they do piques my curiosity. In this case it could be a good partnership that would allow both companies to benefit with LeEco getting a strong US brand and the recognition and market trust that entails and Vizio getting a much larger staffed company with experience in Chinese markets where it could help Vizio push its smart TV platform and ultrabooks and phone aspects further. Here's hoping that a LeEco owned Vizio grows and maintains its quality and price points.
What do you think about LeEco buying out Vizio? What will the future hold for the US TV maker?
CES 2013 Video: AMD Temash Prototype plays DiRT Showdown at 1080p
Subject: Mobile | January 9, 2013 - 08:22 PM | Ryan Shrout
Tagged: video, z-60, vizio, Temash, ces 2013, CES, APU, amd
While Josh taps away on a story about the updates to AMD's roadmap announced at CES this week, we stopped by the Experience Zone to see what demonstrations we could get our hands on. We ran into Chris who showed us two new interesting products. The first was an AMD Z-60 based tablet from Vizio running Modern Warfare 2 at high image quality settings compared to a currently selling Intel Clovertrail design. Where the AMD system had no issues and could play the game very smoothly, the other was running at an awful frame rate and with obvious visual glitches.
Secondly, and maybe more impressive, was the prototype tablet AMD showed using the upcoming Temash APU. Due out in Q2 of this year, Temash is an APU based on Jaguar CPU cores and GCN GPU cores - the first GCN based APU. They demoed an early unit running DiRT Showdown at 1080p (at low quality settings) and I found the visuals to be quite impressive! It looks like 2013 might turn out to be a better year for AMD in the mobile space than many expected.

CES 2013: Vizio Shows Off 7-inch and 10.1-inch Tablet, Will Compete With Nexus 10 and Kindle HD 7
Subject: Mobile | January 7, 2013 - 10:43 AM | Tim Verry
Tagged: vizio, tegra 3, tablet, ces 2013, CES
In addition to the AMD-powered tablet running Windows 8 that Vizio showed off earlier this week, the company is showing off two new ARM-based tablets running Android at CES. Vizio has reportedly listened to feedback from users as well as completed internal testing to arrive at a new tablet form factor that is lighter and thinner. In contrast to the previous-generation design, the two new Vizio tablets will be 7-inches and 10.1-inches respectively.
Both tablets feature an IPS display, rounded corners, and a back panel that is covered with a soft-to-the-touch material. Also, both tablets have a similar color scheme and logo placement.
While the exterior design is similar between the two devices, the internal specifications differ significantly. The 7-inch tablet is much smaller and has been optimized for portrait viewing. According to Vizio, the tablet is light enough to hold in one hand comfortably. Along the edges, it offers micro USB, a headphone jack, and volume controls. It has a front-facing 1.2MP webcam and an IPS display (non-laminated) with a resolution of 1280 x 800. A Vizio logo and speaker bar adorn the underside of the device.
Internal specifications include a NVIDIA Tegra 3 SoC, 16GB of storage, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, microphone, and the Android 4.2 operating system. There is no word yet on the amount of RAM or how much the tablet weighs.
Meanwhile, the 10.1-inch Vizio tablet is matched to compete with Google's Nexus 10. The Vizio tablet features a laminated IPS display with a resolution of 2560 x 1600, front and rear-facing cameras, speakers, and micro USB, HDMI, and headphone connectors. Internally, the 10.1-inch tablet uses NVIDIA's latest Tegra 4 System on a Chip (SoC), which should push it above the performance of the Nexus 10 -- and (hopefully) provide the computing power necessary to smoothly push all the pixels on the high resolution display. Other hardware specs that Vizio has shared includes 32GB of internal storage, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth 4.0 support. The tablet will ship with Android 4.2 as well.
Notably, Vizio has opted to provide a completely stock Android 4.2 operating system with its new tablets sans any skins or bloat-ware. Both tablets are expected sometime this year, with The Verge claiming the 7-inch model's release date being within the first half of 2013. Allegedly, the tablets are noticeably lighter than the current (and, granted, older) crop of competing tablets such as the Kindle Fire HD and Nexus 7 and Nexus 10 tablets. It will be interesting to see how well the Tegra 4 chip handles the 2560 x 1600 display with the Android UI, movies, and 3D games.
For comparison, the Kindle Fire HD 7" is running a dual core OMAP 4460 SoC at 1.2GHz and the Nexus 10 is running a dual core Samsung Exynos 5250 chip at 1.7GHz. It is somewhat of a tossup with the 7" Vizio tablet and Tegra 3 as it will depend on the task and how well multi-core/multithreading is handled in the particular piece of software. The comparison between the Exynos 5250 and Tegra 4 will be interesting though, as it reminds me of the early Intel Core days where debates would be waged over the faster clocked E6600 versus the slower Q6600 and the merits of dual vs quad core on the OSes and games of the time. I'm interested to see some independent benchmarks of Tegra 4 versus Tegra 3 and A6X-powered devices in particular though (to see if it lives up to NVIDIA's claims).
Besides the unknown Tegra 4 improvements, current unknowns on the two tablets include pricing, availability, battery life, amount of RAM, and the SoC clockspeeds.
What do you think of the redesigned Vizio tablets from what we know so far? Did the company get it right this time around with its re-engineered stock devices?
For more information, The Verge has managed to grab some hands-on videos of the two Vizio tablets on the show floor which you can find on their site (7-inch tablet and 10.1-inch tablet videos).

CES 2013: Vizio Teases 4K XVT-Series LED Televisions
Subject: General Tech | January 7, 2013 - 10:22 AM | Tim Verry
Tagged: vizio xvt series, vizio, ultra hdtv, UHD, led, edge-lit led, ces 2013, CES, 4k, 3d tv
Vizio is bringing out all the stops for CES this year with new products in all of its major areas of manufacturing. They are showing off new phones, tablets, computers, and now televisions. Specifically, the company will be teasing invited CES attendees at the Wynn Hotel ballroom with several new 4K Ultra HDTV televisions.
Vizio's 80-inch M-series television. The XVT series will have a similar industrial design.
Vizio has not yet released detailed specifications, but the company has stated that the UHD televisions will be similar in form factor and design to the upcoming M-series (set to release later this year). An industrial design with thin bezel and up to 80" display are hinted at. The new XVT series will have resolutions of 4K x 2K which qualifies for the lower-tier UHD standard (with the top end being 8K). Vizio will be using edge-lit LED technology, which is likely the result of compromises necessary to facilitate the thin bezel. While full array LED with local dimming would be ideal, the company's edge-lit technology is decent second-choice.
Further, at least some models will support 3D input and Vizio's Theater 3D tech along with refresh rates up to 240Hz. That figure is interesting as it could mean 120Hz refresh rates per player in a multiplayer game should the TVs support the necessary glasses technology.
Naturally, Vizio is not yet talking pricing or availability. The company has only stated that it will talk about such things once the XVT series is "closer to commercial availability." In essence, that means they will be fairly pricey and not coming anytime soon.
Even though the event is invite only and the TVs are still a ways off from an official release, it is exciting to see Vizio step into the 4K TV game in a big way. Here's hoping they come out by next year so that Ryan can buy all of the staff one from Christmas (then maybe we would stop dying on the multiplayer after-podcast games... it's worth a shot!)
You can find more pictures and the full press release over at Engadget as well as read more about 4K and the Ultra High Definition TV standard at PC Perspective.

CES 2013: Vizio Creates Windows 8 Tablet with AMD CPU
Subject: General Tech, Processors, Mobile, Shows and Expos | January 6, 2013 - 05:13 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: CES, ces 2013, vizio, amd
Why not open up CES-proper discussion with a tablet announcement?
AMD has begun their push into the tablet space with Vizio being one of their first OEM partners to announce products at CES. Due to AMD being one of the select few to still maintain a proper x86 license, they are about your only option outside of Intel for a true Windows 8 tablet. Vizio took them up on that position.
The Vizio Tablet PC, seemingly a play on their original Android-based Vizio tablet with an added declaration that "I am a PC", will run standard Windows 8 certified as Microsoft Signature. No bloatware will be included which should help users experience the performance that 60-day antivirus trials and auto-launched demo notifications absorb.
On the technical side, the Tablet PC is loaded with 2 GB of RAM, an 11.6" full 1080p display, and a 1.0 GHz AMD Z60 processor. 64 GB of solid state storage is included although Windows 8 has been known to stake claims to a large portion of that. Readers of our site would probably have a primary computing device although this might be worth watching as a secondary device. You do not have a whole lot of other options for Flash support or access to non-default browsers.

Vizio Entering Computer Market with Desktop and Laptop PCs
Subject: Systems | January 7, 2012 - 03:46 PM | Tim Verry
Tagged: vizio, CES, computers, laptops, ultra-thin, desktop, all-in-one
Vizio is commonly known for its line of televisions aimed at the value and price/performance markets; however, the company is moving into the computer market with a series of budget all-in-one desktop and laptop computers. Business Insider reports that the aluminum housed PCs include two all-in-one desktops and three laptop computers and will be shown off at CES 2012.
The desktops come in a 24" and 27" model, and include a screen, base, aluminum keyboard, trackpad, and subwoofer (left and right speakers likely integrated in monitor part).
The laptops come in two 15" models and one 14" computer. The 14" and one of the 15" laptops are described at being "ultra-thin." From one of the photos, at least one of the laptops will support USB 3.0.
Unfortunately, there is little word on specifications but they will likely be on hand at CES so stay tuned to PC Perspective for more details. Vizio states that the computers will be able to stream data back and forth between the computer and Vizio Smart TVs, and will be available for purchase around June. More photos of the devices can be found here.

KORTNEY Hause has been tipped to play in the Premier League one day after completing a deadline day move to Wolves.
The giant 18-year-old defender signed a two and a half year deal with the Molineux side after passing a medical on the final day of the January transfer window on Friday.
Hause moves to the League One high fliers for an undisclosed fee, with Wanderers saying the deal includes add-ons and a sell on clause.
Blues boss Gareth Ainsworth said the central defender has all the attributes needed to succeed at the top level - and revealed the youngster personally thanked him for putting him on the right track.
He said: "Kortney Hause can play in the Premier League with the right next step, which hopefully he'll get at Wolves. He's a cracking player and everyone who's seen him in a Wycombe shirt will realise just how far he can go.
"His temperament is something that will help him along the way just as much as ability. He doesn't get high, he doesn't get low, he's quite steady. At the moment he's like a sponge and learning so much about his trade.
"We are proud to play a part in his development. He sent myself and Dobbo [assistant manager Richard Dobson] two lovely text messages at about one o'clock in the morning after his move - he must have been absolutely buzzing. We were fast asleep and didn't get them until the morning.
"When you see something like that from someone just starting out and potentially going to the top and sending text messages saying thanks for everything you've done, I'll never forget things like that. It just touches you and made me so proud of what we've done with Kortney. He deserves it, he's a great lad."
Hause reiterated his thanks to Wanderers for the part they played in his development in an interview with the Wolves official club website.
He made 31 first team appearances for the club, which Ainsworth said would "put him in fantastic stead for the future".
And Hause said: "They are the club that gave me my opportunity to play first team football. I'm always going to be grateful for that, but it's time to move on now and hopefully I can be successful at this club.
"All the staff and fans and everyone at the club were very supportive. They stick by you whatever happens.
"Things went really well at Wycombe. I'm grateful for it and I thank Wycombe for that."

A.J. Jenkins played his last college game in San Francisco against UCLA at the Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl in December.
It's safe to say the speedy Illinois wide receiver didn't expect his first NFL game to come in the uniform of the team playing in the same city.
In a move that came as a bit of a surprise to NFL pundits – and was a huge shock to Jenkins – the 49ers selected the honorable-mention All-American with the No. 30 overall pick in the draft. Jenkins, 6-foot and 192 pounds, had 90 catches for 1,276 yards and eight touchdowns as a senior.
San Francisco head coach Jim Harbaugh said the team clocked him running a 4.31-second 40-yard dash at the NFL combine. Central Florida cornerback Josh Robinson had the fastest official time (4.33) in Indianapolis and Jenkins ranked sixth (4.39).
Despite his credentials, Jenkins, who was viewed as a second-round pick, didn't expect to have 49ers general manager Trent Baalke give him a call in the latter stages of the first round Thursday night. On a conference call with reporters a few minutes after he was selected, Jenkins repeatedly said he was "speechless," adding at one point, "This is crazy."
Jenkins, who was with his family in his hometown of Jacksonville, Fla, initially thought a relative was calling him as a practical joke. He was so excited when speaking with the media that he couldn't recall if it was Baalke who initially spoke with him.
"I had no idea I was going to go this early," he said.
The 49ers say they did, however.
They received a call before their pick from the Vikings, inquiring about a trade at No. 30. The 49ers weren't interested, and Minnesota made a deal with the Ravens, who had the No. 29 selection. Harbaugh said Jenkins, who had a pre-draft visit with the team, was the player they had targeted.
"Trent Baalke last night put his name in an envelope and said, 'This is who we're going to pick,'" Harbaugh said. "We all agreed on it and it held true. That was the guy we wanted and that was the highest player on the board when the time came to pick him."
When the 49ers made the pick, Stanford tight end Coby Fleener and wideouts Rueben Randle (LSU) and Stephen Hill (Georgia Tech) were available. Those players, unlike Jenkins, were viewed as potential first-round picks, but are still available entering Friday's second round.
"If we decided to trade back, there was a good chance we would have lost him," Baalke said. "If you like the player, take him."
The selection of Jenkins is similar to last year's pick of defensive end Aldon Smith at the No. 7 spot. Smith, who had 14 sacks and was runner-up for the NFL Rookie of the Year award, was expected to be selected later in the first round, and the pick initially drew criticism.
Jenkins will add needed speed to an offense that includes wide receivers Michael Crabtree, Randy Moss and Mario Manningham. Of that trio only Moss is considered a deep threat, and it's not certain if, at 35, he has the ability to stretch secondaries.
Jenkins averaged 48.6 yards per touchdown catch in 2011 and had five scoring receptions of more than 50 yards. Baalke noted that he will have to get stronger; Jenkins did 12 reps of 225 pounds on the bench press at the combine. Only six of the other 37 wide receivers in Indianapolis had a lower total.
"You're going to find that there were a lot more people that liked A.J. than just the San Francisco 49ers," Baalke said. "He would have gone a lot sooner tomorrow than a lot of people think."
A.J. Jenkins
Position: Wide receiver
Height, weight: 6-0, 192
Age: 22
College: Illinois
Hometown: Jacksonville, Fla.
Of note: A two-year starter in college, Jenkins had 90 catches for 1,276 yards as a senior and earned first-team All-Big Ten and honorable-mention All-America honors. … He had 56 catches for 746 yards as a junior, ranking 111th nationally, and was an academic All-Big Ten pick. … Jim Harbaugh said the 49ers clocked Jenkins with a 4.31-second 40-yard dash at the NFL combine, which is faster than any official time by a wide receiver. … A versatile wideout who will compete for playing time with Randy Moss, Michael Crabtree and Mario Manningham.
49ers on Friday
Picks: No. 61 (Round 2), No. 92 (Round 3)
Outlook: The 49ers could address their right-guard position, their only unsettled starting spot. … Guards Cordy Glenn (Georgia) and Amini Silatolu (Midwestern State) are still available. … San Francisco also might select a cornerback.
More picks
TV: ESPN, NFL Network
Friday: Rounds 2-3, 4 p.m.
Saturday: Rounds 4-7, 9 a.m.
49ers' picks (round, overall): 2, 61; 3, 92; 4, 125; 5, 165; 6, 199; 7, 237.
Raiders' picks: 3, 95; 4, 129; 5, 148; 5, 168; 6, 189.

The S&P 500 U-turned lower this week after clearing 1900 for the first time ever, and the small-cap Russell 2000 has flirted with correction territory.
It\'s no wonder bearish takes on the U.S. stock market have resonated.
Here are three top bearish views from the past week, followed by three bullish arguments.
1) David Tepper certainly got traders talking this week. The wildly successful hedge-fund manager, previously quite bullish, said on stage Wednesday at the SALT Conference: "I'm not saying go short, just don't be too freakin' long." Or maybe he said \"fricking,\" but either way he\'s turned more bearish on stocks.
2) Ralph Acampora, a legendary technical analyst, has a "sick feeling" about what lies ahead for stocks in the next few months. He predicts a 10% drop for the S&P 500, and he sees the Russell and Nasdaq down 20% or 25%. But after a drop into autumn, he said the fourth quarter will be "very, very strong."
3) Michael Sincere sees a transition to a bear market, arguing one is inevitable and coming sooner rather than later. He points to tumbles by previously high-flying tech stocks. Sincere is a MarketWatch columnist and author of books like \"Start Day Trading Now.\" (Did you start? How\'s that going for ya?)
And now the upbeat arguments:
1) Leon Cooperman, founder of Omega Advisors, said the S&P 500 could end the year at 2000. That\'s as long as the Federal Reserve doesn't mess up the tapering of its bond-buying program that\'s boosted equities. The index traded around 1870 on Friday. Cooperman, speaking at the SALT confab, described himself as \"positive,\" albeit with a lowercase \"p.\"
2) Bruce Bittles isn\'t throwing in the towel. \"Despite this week's cautionary performance, there is not yet enough evidence to argue that the trend has run its course,\" wrote Bittles, chief investment strategist at R.W. Baird in a note Thursday. \"It would be rare for the equity markets to experience significant trouble with interest rates falling and the Fed solidly on the side of expansion.\" But he does allow that upside is likely \"limited given the market lacks leadership and breadth is deteriorating.\"
3) Blaine Rollins, a portfolio manager at 361 Capital, wrote earlier this week that small-cap stocks "can underperform without impacting the broader market," and they "will usually bloody both knees on the playground once a year.\" He noted that an intra-year drop of 10% or more is almost an annual event for the Russell 2000.
So now that you\'ve heard from the bulls and bears, let us know your views and see what other MarketWatch readers are thinking:
Thanks for voting.

Apparently, I am the last local to discover Braintree's Southside Tavern.
The restaurant is visible enough, perched on the curve of Washington Street down the street from Town Hall, large sign proclaiming the new name, which changed from J.J. Mulligans only a year ago.
And while some may say that new restaurants struggle in this economy, or that it takes time for people to discover a new haunt, Southside is the exception.
"We've been consistent from March 2012 to March 2013," said managing partner Matt Kielty.
On a recent Friday night when I visited, "consistent" was an understatement. The place was hopping with people with beers in hands in the bar side of the room, squeezed into tables elbow-to-elbow on the restaurant end. I was surprised we got a seat right away, without having any kind of reservation.
Beyond the numbers of people, what shocked me was the sheer variety. Southside is a place for everyone — families with young kids happily munched on nachos, older men in business suits enjoyed steak tips with a cold beer, young professionals waved to bartenders as they perused a lengthy and impressive beer menu.
Perhaps the crowd variety is a function of the variety on the menu, which features just about everything.
My picky eater, a lover of bar food, and I ordered something from almost every section. Our waitress wondered aloud how they would all fit on our small table.
Despite the crowded room, service was attentive, and the food came out hot and quickly.
First up were Buffalo chicken wontons ($8), which were crispy and tangy with a hint of spice. The portions were huge, and I had trouble restraining myself from devouring all of them.
Their homemade taste perhaps stems from the way they are made.
"We don't get anything frozen," Kielty said, noting that chef and managing partner Daniel Duarte has an extensive resume, from catering to the Four Seasons Hotel. "Everything is made there from scratch. And it makes a huge difference."
I'd have to agree.
The steak and cheese egg rolls ($9) were equally huge, though not as impressive. Overly cheesy, the flavor overwhelmed the steak. Though perfectly crispy, the finger food was also a bit too greasy for my taste.
Any misgivings I had with the steak rolls were soon forgiven when biting into the perfectly cooked, juicy California burger ($9). I'm a sucker for guacamole, and this was piled high with it, complemented with Swiss cheese and pieces of smoked bacon.
The sweet potato fries were also delicious: crunchy, crispy, and sweet.
The Reuben ($9) too was also flavorful, thick pieces of tender corned beef on a well-toasted rye bread. Perhaps this sandwich suffered because we had so much food to try, but after sitting for a few minutes, some of the bread also became the victim of too much grease.
The BBQ Chicken Pizza ($8), however, wasn't greasy in the slightest. Sweet barbecue sauce, coating thick pieces of fried chicken, punctured the thin-crust cheesy pizza.
Of all the dishes, however, the mac and cheese ($14) with add-on steak tips was the highlight of the evening. The massive dish was cheesy, creamy, with a crispy, crumbly breading. The plate was the definition of comfort food.
An atypical add, the steak tips made the dish. They were juicy and tender with a hint of seasoning that only added to the flavor of the meat.
Not to be forgotten was dessert. I have to go back for the fried apple pie ($7.50). A pillow of fried dough, the dish is stuffed with warm, cinnamon-coated apples, the entire thing coated in powered sugar and vanilla ice cream.
Chocolate lover? Get the warm chocolate cookie ($7.50), which featured a gooey almost cookie-dough-like dish freshly baked and served with ice cream.
It's no wonder the food sales account for 40 to 45 percent of the restaurant's revenue, an unexpected jump from the 25 percent managers initially anticipated.
"We're very happy," Kielty said.
When I left, so was I.Jessica Bartlett can be reached at email@example.com.

US regulators probe wireless competition
Devices and infrastructure focus
US regulators are probing the level of competition in the wireless sector in a move that could lead to broader investigation of the communications industry.
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has said it's seeking input on new issues and topics since its last report was released in this annual process in May.
The Commission said it wants to include new market segments not covered in earlier reports, such as in devices and infrastructure.
Importantly, regulators want to examine "vertical relationships" between "upstream" and "down stream" market segments and how these relationships affect the competition.
That means the Commission want to examine whether deals between, say, handset manufacturers and carriers have locked out rivals to the detriment of customers.
This is the first such under President Barack Obama's FCC chairman Julius Genachowski who said his organization would seek to provide "a solid foundation for policy making with respect to mobile wireless services" using the report's findings. Genachowski is a leading supporter of the idea of net neutrality.
The Commission also announced an inquiry looking at ways to support and encourage further innovation and investment in wireless.
Spectrum availability, wireless networks, devices, applications, and business practices will be looked at along with how the public has used wireless services and technology to solve real-world problems in areas such as health care, energy, education, and public safety the FCC said. ®

FOX Business: Capitalism Lives Here
U.S. equity markets zipped higher Friday after a round of weak jobs data inspired hopes the Fed may take more time to boost rates and cut its bond-purchasing program.
Continue Reading Below
Today's Markets
As of 2:55 p.m. ET, the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 134 points, or 0.86%, to 15764, the S&P 500 gained 19.7 points, or 1.1%, to 1793 and the Nasdaq Composite advanced 58.8 points, or 1.5%, to 4116.
The economy has been in focus this week after a closely-watched report showed the U.S. factory sector nearly stalled in January. Other data have painted a more upbeat picture.
However, the monthly jobs report from the Labor Department is widely considered to be one of the most important economic indicators.
The U.S. economy added 113,000 jobs in January, falling well below Wall Street's expectation of 185,000 jobs. Meanwhile, the unemployment rate fell to 6.6% from 6.7% the month prior, hitting the lowest level since 2008. The labor force participation rate rose to 63%, up from 62.8% in December.
"The U.S. labour market started the year on a weaker than expected footing, casting doubt on whether the Fed should proceed with any further tapering of its asset purchase programme," Chris Williamson, chief economist at London-based Markit wrote in an e-mail.
"The FOMC may choose to await a clearer picture of the economy, and especially to see the extent to which severe cold weather may have affected the data, before cutting QE any further."
Also on the economic front is a report from the Fed on consumer credit conditions.
Elsewhere, LinkedIn (NASDAQ:LNKD) shares came under heavy pressure after the world's biggest professional network posted a disappointing forward outlook.
In commodities, U.S. crude oil futures fell 31 cents, or 0.33%, to $97.52 a barrel. Wholesale New York Harbor gasoline rose 0.2% to $2.688 a gallon. Gold rose $5, or 0.4%, to $1,262 a troy ounce.

The Sports Xchange
By Mike Shalin, The Sports Xchange
BOSTON -- Veteran goalie Jean-Sebastien Giguere, in his first start of the season, made 39 saves and the undefeated Colorado Avalanche earned a 2-0 decision over the previously undefeated Boston Bruins on Thursday night.
Ryan O'Reilly's first-period, power-play goal on a deflection was all Giguere needed as he posted his 37th career shutout, his first for new coach Patrick Roy.
Matt Duchene scored into an empty net with 25.7 seconds left to seal the victory for the Avalanche (4-0-0).
Giguere watched Semyon Varlamov give up just one goal in each of Colorado's first three wins before getting his shot Thursday and dropping the Bruins to 2-1-0 (all home game).
The victory continued Colorado's best season start since the franchise moved from Quebec City to Denver in 1995. The 4-0-0 mark matches the third-best start in Nordiques/Avalanche history.
The win also extended the Avalanche's TD Garden unbeaten streak to eight games (seven wins and a tie) dating back to their last loss in Boston in 1998.
Heading into the game, Giguere, who backstopped the Anaheim Ducks to the 2007 Stanley Cup, said, "I'm looking forward to it. At the end of the day, you want to play some games -- try to get in the groove and try to help the team. It's a good place. Boston's a great building, it's a good team to play against. It should be a good battle."
And it was. The game featured a playoff-like style that included plenty of hitting and nastiness.
David Krejci was off for hooking when Andre Benoit sent a shot toward the net and a screened Rask. The puck deflected off O'Reilly in the high slot with 39.3 seconds left in the first period, and O'Reilly was credited with his second goal of the young season.
Duchene also scored his second.
Giguere did his best work in the second period, when the Bruins had 15 shots and both Krejci and Patrice Bergeron were robbed from directly in front.
Rask, who also allowed one goal in each of his team's first two games, also played well, stopping 28 shots in a losing effort. He got a break in the final minute when the Avalanche hit both posts during a flurry.
NOTES: Roy was 32-19-5 during the regular season against the Bruins while playing for the Montreal Canadiens and Colorado. ... Thursday night's game was played on the second anniversary of the last time the teams faced each other. ... The Bruins visit the Columbus Blue Jackets on Saturday, the same day the Avalanche play the Capitals in Washington. ... Bruins LW Carl Soderberg, yet to play this season because of an ankle injury, joined the team for the first time at Thursday's morning skate. "I think it's a start," coach Claude Julien said. "It was good to see him out there and doing at least some line rushes and stuff like that. So he's progressing well but obviously not ready to play." ... The previous best starts in the history of the Nordiques/Avs franchise (in order of most wins): 7-0 in 1985-86, 5-0 in '94-95, 4-0 in '92-93 and 3-0 in '87-88. ... In the building were Hall of Famers Roy, Cam Neely, Bobby Orr, Ray Bourque and Johnny Bucyk.

The distribution of positive "anymore" is only vaguely geographic; mostly it's social dialects -- speech groups not necessarily distinguished by location -- that show it.This is true, for the most part, but I think there are nevertheless geographic limits, outside of which no one of any social group uses positive 'anymore'. The problem is, I don't really know where these limits are. Astute commenter and aspiring professional dialectologist Corrine/Queenie recently joked that the boundary ran through Chicago's western suburbs. Though she was joking, this may in fact be the case.
A while back I wrote about American words for 'soft drink', and I included a beautiful map based entirely on responses from an online survey. So this got me thinking: why can't I do the same thing for positive 'anymore'?
Here's where you come in. Tell me two things: 1) if you find the sentence "Gas sure is expensive anymore" shocking, or would have found it shocking at some point (not whether you've heard such sentences or if you use them) and 2) the zip code where you spent the biggest chunk of the first ten years of your life. Then bug your friends to do the same. I expect that in a few years I'll have enough thoroughly unscientific data to make an equally unscientific map. Maybe then I'll be able to sleep at night.
A confession:
I don't use positive 'anymore' natively. At least I don't think I do. I think that anymore I use it as an affectation of sorts, or as marked speech. But just because it isn't part of my dialect doesn't mean I can't love it.
