LOS ANGELES - Judy D. Olian, chairman of the G. and R. Loeb Foundation Inc. and dean of UCLA Anderson School of Management, today announced the finalists of the 2006 Gerald Loeb Awards for Distinguished Business and Financial Journalism. She also announced the recipients of the Lifetime Achievement Award and the Lawrence Minard Editor Award.
The Loeb Awards, which are the highest honors in business journalism, have been presented by UCLA Anderson School of Management since 1973. The Loeb Awards recognize writers, editors and producers of both print and broadcast media for significant contributions they make to business, financial and economic journalism.
The 2006 Lifetime Achievement Award recipient is Myron Kandel, founding financial editor of CNN. This annual award recognizes an individual whose career exemplifies the consistent and superior insight and professional skills necessary to further the understanding of business, financial and economic issues.
Ronald Henkoff, managing editor for enterprise and publishing at Bloomberg News and editor for Bloomberg Markets magazine, will receive the 2006 Lawrence Minard Editor Award, named in memory of Laury Minard, founding editor of Forbes Global and a former final judge for the Loeb Awards.

Kandel and Henkoff will receive their career achievement awards at the Loeb Awards dinner.

@markhalsey Hi Mark, i now that but i can't do anything to fix it, i'm only a linker, only the admins can fix it and it seems that they.....disappeared.... But i think that you can see all the episodes at the sister site
@Tonia1 Any other episodes available? I've noticed a trend for shows, which do not have a predetermined season schedule, do not deliver notifications upon new episodes airing. Such as is the current case with Animal Kingdom, for example. I have likely a dozen or so additional titles if anybody has an interest in patching this website bug. Cheers from San Diego, Mark

Why is there no variety of Links anymore? For one episode of any program, all that is available is verystream, and the next, it's all vshare. Not only that, it just seems like this site went from great to spam overnight. Whoever is responsible should consider posting one link from each hosting source, or several in different quality streams, labeled correctly as such. Just giving my two cents.
NONE of these fucking links work! They are all the same!!!

Ellen Mackenzie - Conservation & Environment, Shark Conservation in Fiji
In April 2014 I was lucky enough to volunteer on this amazing project, and in such a vibrant destination, for one month. On this project you get to take part in shark survey dives, community outreach, mangrove reforestation work, shark tagging and an incredible dive with up to 40 or 50 bull sharks. They are such majestic creatures that will leave you awe-struck and bubbling with excitement as you observe them 30 metres under the surface.
My Shark Conservation Placement
I learnt to dive a few years back, but had done little diving since and was very much looking forward to seeing some of the beautiful marine life in the waters surrounding this island. I was glad of the opportunity to do an advanced diving course to both refresh my diving training and learn new skills. However, you do not need any previous diving experience to take part in the project.
On this project I also took part in shark tagging, which involves being on a boat for many hours surrounded by some of the island's best scenery and some stunning sunsets and sunrises. If you're lucky enough you may even be able to see a baby bull shark in the flesh, if not fortunate enough to catch one! We also spent time in local villages and helped to build mangrove nurseries alongside help from the local Fijian people.
Staying in Fiji
Volunteering in Fiji was to be the last and final destination of my seven month trip across Asia and Oceania, and the furthest I had ever been (or ever could be) from my home in the UK - literally the other side of the planet!
I am so glad I decided to include Fiji in my travels as it is an enchanting place to stay - from the local villages, to the beaches, to the reefs full of shimmering fish and abounding sea life, to the charming villas where you get to stay during your project. One of these villas also happens to be home to two very cute little puppies!
I spent many hours lying on the grass in the sunshine, soaking up the atmosphere of this idyllic setting amongst the chirping birds and lush greenery.
Working with sharks
Like a lot of people whose perceptions of sharks have been skewed by the media, I'd been scared of sharks in the past and was a little worried of the risk of diving in such close proximity to them. However, soon the enthusiasm of the team and the other volunteers rubs off on you, and by the time you are about to embark on your first shark dive all the fear and nerves have disappeared and been replaced by such thrill and excitement for the wonderful experience. When it's over all that's on your mind is sharks, sharks and more sharks, and you can't wait to see more!
After a while you become more and more educated about the reality of these supposedly notorious predators, and realise that they are in fact not to be feared by us, but to be respected and protected.
You learn so much about the vital need to protect them from finning, overfishing and exploitation and just how distorted our common conception of sharks is. I left this project so much more knowledgeable and enthusiastic to do more diving and of course, to see more sharks!
The Experience
I've learnt so much about this vitally important environmental issue and the value of the conservation work being carried out on this project, of which I had been a part. It is located in such a beautiful setting which only adds to making the experience very memorable.

Ellen DeGeneres, Steve Harvey and the soap opera "The Young and the Restless" were tops among the 41st annual Daytime Emmy winners.
"The Ellen DeGeneres Show" received its eighth trophy as outstanding entertainment talk show at the awards ceremony Sunday at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills. Steve Harvey was a double winner, as his "Steve Harvey" was honored as outstanding informative talk show, and he himself won as best game show host for "Family Feud."
CBS' "Young and the Restless" captured six awards, including honors for best drama series and best lead actor for star Billy Miller. Eileen Davidson of NBC's "Days of Our Lives" was named best drama series actress.
ABC's "Good Morning America" won for best morning program.
The Daytime Emmys introduced new awards for Spanish-language shows, with trophies going to Telemundo's "Un Nuevo Dia" for best morning program, CNNE's "Clix" for best entertainment show and Rodner Figueroa of Univision's "El Gordo y la Flaca" for best daytime talent in Spanish.
CBS received eight awards at the Daytime Creative Arts Emmys, presented last Friday at the Westin Bonaventure to honor the technical achievements of behind-the-scenes players, making it the network leader with a total of 14 awards after Sunday's ceremony.
PBS received a combined 13 awards; HUB Network for kids received 6; TOLN.com (The Online Network) 5, ABC 4; and NBC scored 3.
The ceremony, which aired on the cable news channel HLN last year and in 2012 after losing its longtime home on the broadcast networks, this year settled for streaming the proceedings online. The change in fortune reflects the dwindling daytime audience and programming shifts. Kathy Griffin hosted Sunday's ceremony, with Billy Bush and Mario Lopez among the presenters.
Other winners:
• Talk show host (tie): Mehmet Oz, "The Dr. Oz Show"; Katie Couric, "Katie"
• Entertainment news program (tie): "Entertainment Tonight"; "Extra"

Product description
Pan sets are a must for those who love cooking, as lots of cooking generally means lots of pans. Basic essentials include a few proven favourites combined with a wide range of other WMF pans in various sizes. The three-, four- or five-piece pan sets consist of deep/shallow casserole pans and stockpots with lid, a saucepan as well as a frying and serving pan without lid. And those who simply can't decide can cater to their personal culinary preferences and choose the right size pans to fit their hob. Individual pots and pans from the cookware series can be added to the WMF pan sets at any time. Made from easy-care, robust Cromargan®, all pans feature a TransTherm® universal base and are thus suitable for use on all hob types, including induction.
Designer Peter Ramminger drew his inspiration for the colours of this Silit cookware series from nature: Ocean Green, Nature White and Nature Black give deep and shallow casserole pans their natural colours. The pans in the Silit Nature collection are topped off with a stainless steel control lid. This features a perforated vent that is easily opened and closed with the help of a slider – enabling the controlled release of steam and easy draining of liquid with the lid on. And to protect you from burning your fingers, the lid features an extra finger guard on both sides. The hollow handles stay cool when cooking and fit comfortably in the hand. The flared pouring rim enables easy pouring and draining of sauces and pasta. The functional ceramic Silargan is cut-resistant and non-abrasive, while the drawn steel core conducts heat quickly and retains it for a long time. The collection includes deep and shallow casserole pans (16 to 24 centimetres in diameter) with lid as well as a saucepan (16 centimetres in diameter) without lid. They are suitable for use on all types of hob, including induction, and can be cleaned in the dishwasher. The slider on the lid can easily be disassembled and cleaned. Silit gives a 30-year guarantee on the inner and outer ceramic Silargan surface if the product is used as intended**. ** The 30-year guarantee is for the inner and outer ceramic Silargan surface of the cookware. The guarantee only applies if the product is used as intended. More detailed information about the scope of the guarantee and proper use can be found in the instructions for use enclosed with the products.

Wonderful Walnut-Mushroom Loaf
Makes 4 to 6 servings
This delectable loaf is crisp on the outside, tender on the inside, and bursting with flavor. Paired with Mashed Potatoes and Cauliflower and Sesame Greens Beans, it makes for a traditional American-style meal that even meat lovers will enjoy.
2 to 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, as needed
1 large bermuda onion, chopped
8 to 10 ounces cremini or white button mushrooms, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 heaping teaspoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon reduced-sodium tamari
2 1/4 cups walnuts
1/2 cup unsalted roasted sunflower seeds
2 1/2 cups fresh whole-grain breadcrumbs
1 cup shredded vegan cheese
Zest from 1/2 lemon
1 teaspoon italian seasoning
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
2 cups jarred marinara sauce
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent, 8 to 10 minutes. Add 5 to 6 ounces of the chopped mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the garlic, brown sugar, and tamari. Decrease the heat to medium-low, cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are golden around the edges and the pan juices have evaporated, 5 to 10 minutes, adding more oil or a bit of water as needed to prevent sticking.
Meanwhile, put the walnuts in a food processor and process until coarsely ground. Transfer to a large bowl. Put the sunflower seeds in the food processor and process until coarsely ground. Add the sunflower seeds to the walnuts, along with the onion mixture, breadcrumbs, vegan cheese, zest, italian seasoning, and salt. Stir until thoroughly combined.
Stir 1 teaspoon of the remaining oil into 1 cup of the marinara sauce. Spread the mixture in the bottom of a 13 x 9-inch glass or ceramic baking pan. Working with one-third of the mushroom mixture at a time, mold it by hand into a large ball, compressing it to release the oils in the walnuts and help hold the loaf together. Put the balls in the baking pan side by side and form them into a single compact loaf, patting it down and smoothing the top.
Scatter the remaining mushrooms around the loaf. Spoon 2/3 cup of the remaining marinara sauce over the mushrooms. Spoon the remaining 1/3 cup of marinara sauce over the top of the loaf, spreading it evenly with a rubber spatula.
Cover with foil and bake for 40 to 45 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for 10 to 15 minutes, until the loaf is almost firm to the touch.
Let cool for 10 to 15 minutes to firm up. Carefully remove the loaf onto a serving platter.
To make a quick gravy, put 1 cup of water in a small saucepan, and heat to a simmer. Add the simmering water, 1/4 cup at a time, to the loaf pan, loosening up the leftover bits of mushrooms and tomato sauce with a spoon as you go. Add more water as needed, a 1/4 cup at a time, until the desired "gravy" consistency is reached.
Cut the loaf into generous slices. Serve warm,with some of the mushroom sauce spooned over each serving. Put the remaining mushroom sauce in a gravy boat or small bowl to pass at the table.
Mashed Potatoes and Cauliflower
Makes 4 to 5 servings
Here I've jazzed up mashed potatoes with cauliflower, giving the dish a boost in nutrients, especially vitamin C, while also making it lower in calories. Because cauliflower has a mellow flavor and creamy texture, the result is much like the traditional version of the ever-popular side dish. Although the potatoes are sharing the stage, they still play an important role, holding everything together after mashing.
1 head cauliflower, coarsely chopped
2 medium white potatoes, peeled and coarsely chopped
1/2 cup unsweetened nondairy milk, plus more as needed
1 tablespoon vegan margarine, plus more as needed
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
Freshly ground pepper
Chopped fresh parsley or basil, for garnish
Steam the cauliflower and potatoes until soft but not mushy, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, heat the nondairy milk in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until steaming hot but not boiling.
Transfer the cauliflower and potatoes to a medium bowl and add the nondairy milk, margarine, and salt. Mash with a potato masher until smooth and lump-free, adding more nondairy milk or margarine as needed to achieve the desired consistency. Serve immediately, garnished with parsley if desired.
Sesame Green Beans
Makes 4 to 5 servings
When green beans are in season at my local farmers' market, I like to feature them as a simple side dish, accented with gomasio, which adds unusual dimensions of texture and flavor to the beans. But if you don't have any on hand, you can substitute sesame seeds. Because gomasio contains salt, seasoning with salt is optional here, and you should definitely taste before adding it.
1 pound green beans, trimmed
2 teaspoons vegan margarine
1 to 2 teaspoons gomasio (see note) or sesame seeds
Sea salt (optional)
Freshly ground pepper
Steam the green beans until crisp-tender, 7 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl and add the margarine. Season with the gomasio to taste. Toss gently until the green beans are evenly coated. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
Note: Gomasio is a condiment made from ground roasted sesame seeds and salt, and sometimes sea vegetables or other ingredients. For an additional flavor note, try seaweed gomasio in this dish.

Making room for wolves
What do you get when you ask 50 people — only a handful of whom have actually ever seen a wolf — to write about new ways to "think about (wolves), imagine them, and welcome them home"? There are the inevitable odes to friendly wolf-dogs, and some wild stuff about kids suckled by volcanoes. But a lot of the writing in Comeback Wolves is pretty surprising, and a lot of it centers on the problem of how we make space for the real wolf — snarling, pooping, and lounging in sunshine — in our world and our minds.
It's been a decade since wolves were reintroduced into Yellowstone and the Southwest; wolves have turned up in Colorado and Utah. But it is clear that we are still utterly unprepared for their reappearance. In this world made wild again, as Jana Richman writes, "the wolf has to play by our rules." And M. John Fayhee, the former publisher of Mountain Gazette, points out that those rules don't leave much room for wolves: Running a new ski lift to the top of the Continental Divide can drive a wolf into Interstate 70 traffic.
Splat. And, as Fayhee writes, "tough noogies."
There's also a lot about possibility and hope, and that may be the point: We are all still sorting through the psychic implications of bringing back the wolf. "I can debunk wolf myths chapter and verse, using Barry Lopez's Of Wolves and Men as hymnal," writes B. Frank. But no amount of imagining can prepare us for meeting a wolf face-to-face. Laura Paskus, HCN's Southwest correspondent, points out that for those of us in the West, such an encounter could happen in any of our lives, at any time of the night. "Whether you hate wolves or love them," she writes, "any one of us would wake with a start, a pounding heart. What you do next is up to you."

New B.C. strata rules mean simple majority can approve repairs
Owners of condos and apartments will more easily be able to vote for major repairs to their buildings under changes to strata legislation introduced by the B.C. government Feb. 26.
The new strata rules will allow condo associations to vote to spend contingency funds for fixes recommended in depreciation reports using a simple majority, and not three-quarters of membership, said Rich Coleman, the minister responsible for housing.
That will make it easier for condo boards to pass major repairs, rather than get tied up in votes where holdouts can delay work for years and cause costs to rise, said Coleman.
The changes would also clarify that strata councils can use operating money to pay for depreciation reports, which are required by the province.
The law will also be changed to make it easier to determine who is responsible for paying liens or other legal problems assigned to a unit when it is sold to a new buyer.
Condo boards will also be required to keep better records that link storage lockers to particular units.
All of the changes were asked for by strata associations and help clarify the rules, said Coleman.
"It makes it easier for them to operate strata councils," he said. "There's a lot of volunteers out there and to carry out their responsibilities we need to make it easier and better understood."

Gods of the AnasaziWho Did The Anasazi Worship
The Anasazi were an ancient group of people that didn't have any writing. This means they have passed down their religious and spiritual beliefs from one generation to the next through oral means. Similar to other ancient civilizations, the Anasazi believed in the existence of a Creator. They believed in the existence of an orderly universe. They perceive "evil" as an imbalance between the orderly universe that they know and the humans. Likewise, they perceive "good" as something that results from positive actions and thinking.
Polytheistic Belief
The Anasazi were polytheistic since they were worshipers of many gods. They had spiritual figures that represented everything such as crops, rain, animals, and more. One example is their Creator who they also referred to as "The Grandmother."
Rituals and Ceremonies
The Anasazi used to predict the coming and ending of the seasons by tracking the passage of the planets and stars. Based on this practice, they have aligned their rituals and ceremonies in harmony with nature. If these rituals and ceremonies were executed properly, the Anasazi believed they would be rewarded with good health, successful hunts, bounty harvests, and sufficient rain.
Beliefs and Origins
Likewise, their origins had also shown some influence from these beliefs. One example of such influence can be inferred from their rock art deer, big-horn sheep and horned masks images which showed their origins in gathering and long hunting.
Tribal Traditions
The Anasazi gave huge importance to tribal traditions and customs. They were very religious. They were also intolerant of different religious ideas. In the Anasazi society, the Anasazi priests were seen as very important figures.
The Kachinas
The Anasazi society is one that is deemed as matriarchal as it was dominated by women. However, their spiritual society is one that is dominated by men and that men figures were more info portrayed both as men and women. This varying perception on the dominance between men and women led to the rise of Kachinas. Believed to be their ancestors, the Kachinas are spirit beings who had the power to bring rain.
The Shamans
The Anasazi spiritual society believed that the Shamans are beings that possess a spiritual connection to both spirits of good and evil. In the society, they were marked as those with epileptic seizures, physical deformities, and hallucinations. They were known to search for visions such as those that pertain to hunting, warfare, fortune-telling, healing, and so on. However, they use a certain process as a way to see the visions and reach the spirit world. This include using pain, dancing, hypnotic chanting, and intoxicants.
Astrological Calendars
The Anasazi society made elaborate astrological calendars which they based on the seasons as well as on various times of the day. An evidence can be seen in certain walls which bore a series of spiral stone carvings. Such stone carvings are strategically positioned in such a way that the sun's rays would pierce them at noon as well as during the solstices. Some archaeologists believed that the Anasazi may have incorporated their culture with a certain form of sun worship. The same incorporation was applied with Moon worship based on the presence of Moon huts.

February 22, 2011
LOS ANGELES -- Sanford C. Sigoloff, Emeritus UCLA Anderson Board of Visitors member, died earlier this week at his home in Brentwood, California. Sigoloff died from complications associated with pneumonia, according to the Los Angeles Times. Sigoloff was an original member of Anderson's Board of Visitors, joining in 1984. He remained active until 2002.
Professionally, Sigoloff was considered an expert in corporate turnarounds. In 1985, he famously brought the Wickes company out of bankruptcy; he later became well known to television viewers for starring in a series of then-ubiquitous commercials for Wickes' Builder's Emporium chain with their catch phrase, "We got the message, Mr. Sigoloff."
Sigoloff and his wife, Betty, were active supporters of UCLA Anderson. In addition to their generous financial contributions, he served as a mentor to Anderson students and also taught a course in corporate renewal. The couple endowed the Sanford and Betty Sigoloff Distinguished Professor in Corporate Renewal, currently held by Professor William Ouchi. They, along with the Wickes Foundation, endowed the Betty and Sanford Sigoloff Student Fellowship Fund.
"Sandy and Betty Sigoloff made a tremendous impact on UCLA Anderson and that impact was felt in a multitude of ways," said Senior Associate Dean Alfred E. Osborne, Jr. "Their generous financial support created both an endowed faculty chair and a student fellowship fund. Just as significantly, Sandy made a personal impact, both as an instructor in the classroom and as a friend and advisor outside the classroom. He will be greatly missed by the entire UCLA Anderson community."

Today: Silicon Valley's stalled IPO market looks to heat back up with Good Technology filing, impending Zendesk offering. Also: Cisco and Agilent report earnings.
The Lead: Good Technology plans IPO ahead of Zendesk offering
Another Silicon Valley company joined the pipeline of initial public offerings Wednesday, just as Zendesk prepares to break an IPO drought for Bay Area tech companies.
Sunnyvale mobile-management company Good Technology filed for a $100 million IPO on Wednesday afternoon, though that figure is likely a placeholder while the 18-year-old firm settles on a price range. Good Technology, which was valued at $800 million in its most recent funding round, helps enterprise customers secure and manage their employees' use of mobile electronic devices, similar to AirWatch, which was acquired for more than $1.5 billion by Palo Alto's VMware earlier this year.
CEO Christy Wyatt, a former Apple and Palm executive, noted in a February interview with Recode that Good is larger than AirWatch, adding, "It says a lot about the opportunity in this space."
Good's financial disclosures in Wednesday's filing weren't that great, however: While sales growth has been strong, with revenues gaining more than 25 percent in each of the past two calendar years to a total of $160.4 million in 2013, net losses have been growing at similar or higher rates. Fortune's Dan Primack noted Wednesday that the company had only $42 million in cash on hand at the end of 2013, worrisome considering a net loss of $118.4 million last year would suggest the company may run out of money without the financial help an IPO could bring.
An IPO windfall isn't guaranteed in the current environment, either. While biotechnology companies enjoyed a run of success in the first quarter of 2014, few pure-tech companies from Silicon Valley have made debuts this year. Coupons.com, A10 Networks and Aerohive Networks managed to complete their offerings in March, but a strong tech downturn on Wall Street that has most strongly affected companies that went public in the past year has put a chill on many companies' IPO plans, including high-profile filers such as Box. Good Technology rival MobileIron, based in Mountain View, also reportedly delayed its planned IPO.
"Whenever it looks like it's possible to lose money is when it becomes very easy for sentiment to swing," Santa Clara University professor Robert Hendershott noted of the IPO market recently.
That slowdown is one reason all eyes have turned to Zendesk, the San Francisco cloud software company that is expected to go public this week. Zendesk is expected to price its IPO Wednesday or Thursday evening, with its price range currently sitting at $8 to $10, and the price the company commands and its performance on Wall Street will be watched closely amid tech's stock market maelstrom.
SV150 market report: Cisco and Agilent release earnings after stocks fall
Tech stocks returned to declines Wednesday, but Cisco Systems received a big boost in late trading thanks to an earnings report that beat expectations.
Cisco reported a slight decline in net income and sales from the same quarter a year ago, but profits of $2.2 billion, or 42 cents a share, on revenues of $11.5 billion easily beat analysts' expectations. The San Jose networking giant, the fifth largest Silicon Valley tech company in terms of revenues, has been suffering from a slowdown in emerging markets, but found growth in United States demand for mobile networking gear. "We saw strength across a number of areas of our business," CEO John Chambers said in Wednesday's conference call. Cisco shares dropped 0.2 percent to $22.81 in Wednesday's regular trading session, then jumped to more than $24.30 in after-hours action following the report's release.
Agilent joined Cisco in releasing earnings Wednesday, announcing a net income of $150 million, or 45 cents a share, on sales of $1.73 billion; shares dipped slightly in late trading after falling 1.7 percent to $55.85 in the regular session. Google dropped 1.3 percent to $534.41 as a variety of protesters gathered outside the Mountain View company's annual shareholders meeting while Google Glass reached the open market in the United States. Apple added 11 cents to $593.87 as analysts examined the possible breakdown of iPhone sales while Norway cast a stern eye at iCloud.
Tesla Motors gained 0.2 percent to $190.62 after CEO Elon Musk divulged more information about its planned "gigafactory" in a talk at the car maker's Fremont factory, and Netflix added 1.4 percent to $351.88 after a report showed it is responsible for an increasing amount of peak Internet traffic. Redwood City-based Shutterfly fell 2 percent to $38.22 after an embarrassing email snafu, and Yahoo dropped 0.7 percent to $34.17 after acquiring Snapchat rival Blink.

text: I have a Bernina 430 with the BSR foot, and I can't seem to get satisfactory results using it. As soon as I start moving the fabric, the machine goes off at a tremendous speed, regardless of the speed at which I'm moving the fabric, resulting in extremely small and generally pretty uneven and unattractive-looking stitches. This seems to happen no matter whether I'm in mode 1 or 2. I'm to the point where I've given up on it and gone back to doing free motion quilting with an old-fashioned foot, and I get pretty nice results that way--but I'm frustrated because the BSR was very expensive and it really ought to work better than this. Has anyone else had this particular problem? Thanks!!

This tutorial is for anyone who is considering being a top, regardless of whether the meat injection is 100% prime, or a beef substitute (a strap-on dildo), these words of wisdom are for you.
What Ya Need To Know
Let's get something clear right from the get-go. And this is for all you sticklers for semantics out there. The word "top" has several sexual connotations. There are of course BDSM tops, but generally they go by the moniker "dom". And one can accurately say there a "top" in any sexual activity that involves an active and passive partner — such as cocksucking and watersports. But today's lesson is for the active partner in butt sex. But you knew that already. Because all you had to do is read the title of this article to figure that out, huh?
Some folks just aren't open to the idea of experimenting with their assholes. They think it's gonna be painful, or worse, messy.
So first off, prospective tops, you don't want to try buggering these folks. A good top should know it makes no sense at all to try to force or belittle an unwilling bottom to give up his or her rosebud. This is simply a waste of everyone's time. Because if you do succeed in getting the unwilling bottom to relent, and the subsequent fucking attempt confirms the bottom's earlier suspicions that this activity is indeed painful or gross or both, you'll have won the skirmish, but lost the war. Remember, it takes two to tango.
Secondly. Before a top commences a fuck of any kind, they need to consider whose pleasure is primary in this particular fuck. There is a big difference between fucking for the top's pleasure, for the bottom's pleasure, or for mutual pleasure. For instance, if a top is trying to finesse a novice bottom into exploring ass fucking, that top needs to concentrate on the bottom's pleasure first.
Start by getting the bottom comfortable being touched where the sun don't shine. Lubricate your hand generously and massage the outside of their hole. Make some lazy little circles with your fingers and drive your bottom wild with desire. When their sphincter starts to quiver, as it surely will, slowly penetrate your bottom's bottom with a lubricated fingertip. After a few minutes of just hanging out with your finger in there, you can begin to slowly slide your finger in and out. Be sure to take your time. Allow their muscles to adjust to being penetrated. You might want to incorporate a thin vibrating dildo and/or some expert rimming to pave the way for bigger things.
When a top fingers a bottom, they would do well, at this point, to reconsider the width of his dick or her strap-on. Once your bottom can take two fingers comfortably and three fingers with a minimum of discomfort, they're ready to take a modest-sized cock or dildo. If you're very well-endowed or you plan to strap on a monster dildo, you'd better adjust this finger-formula based on the width of your fingers and your equipment. And, you know, make sure your partner is aware of the girth of what awaits him or her.
A clean asshole is a fuckable asshole. Hygiene is essential for both tops and bottoms. Bottoms may wish to use a small bulb syringe and plain water to clean out a few hours before the event. And tops, once your cock or dildo has been inside your bottom's ass, don't go puttin' that thang anywhere else until you've washed it down with soap and water. Carelessness in the hygiene department will only invite a very serious infection.
Making It Happen
Tops, be sure to use a good personal lube and have your favorite condoms within reach. Getting your bottom into the right position, one that is comfortable for both of you is paramount. There are way too many positions for me cover here, but when choosing a position, consider your preference, the bottom's preference, your cock and/or dildo size, your body type and the bottom's body type. You may find that a pillow or two positioned under your bottom's pelvis will help support and prop up your bottom's bottom in most positions.
Painful fucking is a sign that something is being done incorrectly. It is not a sign from God that ass fucking is wrong. In most cases, pain is due to a few predictable factors:
- The bottom is too tense and is tightening up.
- The top is being impatient and is pushing too hard too soon.
- There may not be enough lubricant.
- The cock or strap-on is too big for the bottom's experience level.
Obviously, both people should be comfortable and feel pleasure from it. However, it's perfectly fine, on occasion, to concentrate on one person's pleasure over the pleasure of the other. Just make sure you both agree on whose pleasure is gonna be the focus of any given fuck.
Topping is a skill like any other. Practice will improve your technique. And while practicing, invite and listen to the feedback coming from your bottom.
The Top's Handy-Dandy Tally Sheet
Ok, let's review.
- Always use a lubricant. Both water-based and silicone- based lubricants are latex-compatible and highly recommended.
- Stop immediately if your partner asks you to stop. I'm not suggesting that you stop trying altogether; just don't push yourself onto your bottom when he or she wants you to stop. Find the source of the problem—lubrication, position, whatever, resolve the problem, and resume the fuck.
- Take it slow. There is no need to rush, especially if you're experimenting with anal sex for the first time.
- A bottom's desire to be fucked will not insure pleasurable cornholing. It's nice that he or she might want to surrender their ass, but that's not gonna make it happen on its own.
- Always communicate with your bottom. Keep your communication playful and dirty. Tops, be open about what you want and how it's feeling. "Oh baby, that's right you've got such a tight hole. You want my big meat in your ass? Yes you do! Open up for daddy…or momma…as the case may be." Get the picture?
- Spread the pleasure around. Keep your hands busy on the bottom's clit or cock, at least initially. If the bottom can make the connection between the pleasure he/she is familiar with (cock or clit) with the new butt related sensations; then the battle has been won.
In Conclusion
Some experienced bottoms can orgasm with ass fucking alone. Women do so through pelvic muscle contractions and G-spot stimulation; men because of pressure applied to their prostate.
Oh, and here's something you need to know. We all have two sphincter muscles. If you insert a finger about one half-inch into your ass and press your fingertip against the side you'll find them both. There is less than a quarter-inch between them. The external sphincter is controlled by the central nervous system, which means you can tense and relax this sphincter at will. The internal sphincter is quite different. This muscle is controlled by the autonomic nervous system making it involuntary. This muscle responds to fear and anxiety. It may cause your bottom's hole to tense up automatically even if he or she is trying to relax.
Tops, remember the rectum is not straight. After the short anal canal that connects the asshole to the rectum, the rectum tilts toward the front of the body, sometimes as much as 90 degrees. That's way some people are anatomically less suited to ass fucking.
Finally, the best attribute a top can have is his or her sense of humor about the whole friggin' deal. Fucking ain't as easy as it looks, at least not at first. But perseverance will carry the day.
Good luck!

The Moomins is a stop motion animated children's television series based on the Tove Jansson's Moomin series of books which was originally produced by Se-ma-for and Jupiter Film between the years 1977-1982, originally for Polish, Austrian and German television. The series was later on sold to other countries including the UK. The British version was adapted by Anne Wood at FilmFair and first broadcast in the UK in 1983 on CITV and was repeated until 1989, and was narrated by British actor Richard Murdoch.

Computational neuroscience
June 14, 2013
In this edition of the U.S. Army Research Laboratory Fellows Corner, ARL Fellow Dr. Piotr Franaszczuk, discusses the field of computational neuroscience from its roots to the present day and how this field of research can lead to a better understanding of the brain structure and function. Franaszczuk believes that advances across the field and on-going research efforts at ARL will eventually lead to models and measurements precise enough to predict how differences in individual brains will influence function and ultimately performance.
The field of computational neuroscience can trace its roots to a 1907 article by Louis Lapique1, who introduced the first biologically inspired neuron model: integrate-and-fire. This model captured the essential principle of neural processing, i.e., all-or-none response of neuron and muscle (discovered experimentally in the late 19th century) to changes in membrane potential. This simple model, as well as its modified versions, is used to this day in simulations of large neural networks.
The development of contemporary biophysical models of realistic neurons and neural networks started only in 1952, after the publication of the Hodgkin-Huxley model2 that was based on giant squid axon experimental measurements. There were many improvements and alternatives to this model, with two main directions. One of these directions included the use of more advanced geometries with more detailed descriptions of dendrites and axons, as well as including more ionic channels. This approach unfortunately increases demand for computational power, practically decreasing the number of neurons that can be connected into network models. The other direction of development in biophysical neuron modeling was to simplify the Hodgkin-Huxley model preserving the ability to model ionic currents but allowing larger scale neural network simulations.
My interest in modeling neural networks originated in the early 1990's. During the 1980's I was involved in developing and implementing signal processing methods to analyze brain activity measured with electroencephalogram (EEG). Since this is a measurement of the electrical potential generated by neural activity of billions of neurons, it can be modeled as a stochastic process. This approach proved very fruitful and many connectivity measures currently used in brain research (including my own) use this approach. As a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Maryland, I had an opportunity to make some single neuron measurements in neuron cultures. This enabled me to investigate how changing interactions between neurons by blocking inhibition results in hyper excitability and bursting, which may represent what happens during an epileptic seizure in humans. This prompted me to start developing a simulation model that initially would simulate network behavior in neural cultures, and eventually lead to an explanation of some of the patterns observed in EEG recordings. Our first study3 in 1997 included just a two-neuron excitatory loop that already provided some interpretation for patterns of bursting activity in neural cultures. This was done on a single personal computer, whereas larger studies performed at this time required big mainframe computers. Since then, we expanded our model to simulations of networks of thousands (on 16 node single core clusters) or even millions (on multicore servers) of neurons dependent on connection density and complexity of single neurons. Sometimes it is not necessary or even advisable to simulate all neurons in real brain tissue. In our recent study4 of abnormal epileptic network representation, 16x16 cortical minicolumns represented by 65,536 neurons was enough to simulate network activity patterns resembling the patterns observed in human epileptic seizures. Figure 1 shows a simplified representation of a modeled patch of cortex and snapshots of evolving bursting activity in the subset of modeled neurons. In our current but not yet published work, we were able to simulate cortex response to sensory input in agreement with experimental data using only 8,000 modeled cells. This significantly increased the speed of computations without losing the ability to interpret simulated results when compared with the experimentally recorded local field potential and firing rate of neurons.
Generation of an EEG-like signal from physiologically motivated models of neural networks also provides a tool for the validation of commonly used measures of EEG activity. Some of these measures, particularly various connectivity measures, were developed using a very strong assumption about EEG signal as a linear stochastic process, and it is not clear if these are justified for activity generated from nonlinear neural networks. In our current study we are investigating limitations of the applicability of connectivity measures on a signal simulated from networks with known simulated connectivity patterns. This provides a valuable tool for validating conclusions about connectivity patterns in the brain derived from experimental studies.
The major obstacles in current modeling efforts are the rather limited and widely diverse data available for model development. Most of the parameters for our modeling are based on data from neural cultures, slices of brain tissue or limited animal studies. Also, since not all brain regions were studied in the same level of detail, there is a need for a more systematic approach to collecting basic data. The recent White House Brain Research through Advancing Innovative Neurotechnologies (BRAIN) initiative provides seed funds for doing this. Hopefully, further development of recording methods, including novel optical imaging techniques, will provide more information needed for realistic computational models. At the same time continuous improvements in computational capabilities will allow for larger models capturing more detail. We are now at the exciting moment in the development of computational neuroscience that may lead to a better understanding of the brain structure and function. This needs an interdisciplinary effort of developing and refining recording methods, developing analysis and visualization tools for "big data," as well as solving numerical problems arising with the increasing number of interconnected neurons in neural network models. ARL is well positioned to make strong contributions in this field with both computational resources and the engineering and scientific expertise needed. We already have two ARL Director's Strategic Initiative (DSI) projects joining experts from different ARL directorates in the effort to better understand brain structure and function in the human brain as well as building an understanding of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), using measurements and computational modeling on different levels of neural structures. All these efforts will eventually lead to models and measurements precise enough to predict how differences in individual brains, either normal or pathological caused by damage, will influence function and ultimately performance.

Los Banos
Los Banos spring street fair set for April 12
The Spring Downtown Street Faire will bring hundreds of shoppers, lookie-loos and walkers to Los Banos in April.
There may, however, be fewer sellers.
"Our typical time is April 18, April 19. We moved it up this year because of the Easter holiday. The vendors pretty much plan out their year in advance. A lot of our usual vendors we contacted said, 'Oh, I already booked something on the 12th,' " said Bertha Faria, executive director of the Los Banos Chamber of Commerce.
As of Wednesday, 54 vendors had signed up, Faria said. The event typically boasts more than 100 vendors. Faria said the vendor application deadline has passed, but the chamber is still accepting applications for an additional fee.
The chamber hosts a street fair in April and October, but it's the one in the spring that typically draws the most people.
"The weather is nice," chamber President Geneva Brett said of the spring fling.
Brett said the event reminds her of open-air markets from years gone by.
Annually, the street fair includes an array of hats, sunglasses, jewelry, dresses, purses, flip-flops, toys, paintings and food. The 2014 edition will also include train rides, health screenings and a fan-system manufacturer.

Q&A with the Lunch Lady
As the food service director at Frankfort-Elberta Area and Benzie County Central Schools. Renee DeWindt is keeping kids healthy with farm-fresh faves like beef stroganoff casserole made with local beef, egg salad sandwiches made from organic eggs from down the road, and even slushies made with fresh fruit.
You're the "lunch lady" for the whole county.
When Jennifer Granholm encouraged schools to merge certain departments, we started sharing a food service manager at Frankfort and Benzie; I report to both superintendents.
What challenges have you overcome?
Before I came in, the food was so bad at Frankfort, the kids boycotted. The former person in my position resigned. When I first came in these kid were fed up. So we did our own Survivor. We had two black boxes—one for what they wanted to vote off the menu and one for what they wanted to vote on the menu. I promised them the item that got the highest vote off we would never have again.
And that was?
Shrimp poppers. They're mostly breading—not too much nutritional value, garbage-y things. I think we don't give kids enough credit. The things they voted off were good things to vote off.
Greatest hits?
At Frankfort, the stir-fry. The big kettle works like a wok. We have chicken and vegetables like fresh celery, mushrooms and carrots, cooked with olive oil so there's still a little crunch left, served with sweet and sour and teriyaki on the side. It's really popular at the high school level.
But not with the elementary kids?
We've got to teach our little kids a different way of eating. You cannot have squash set up and it looks like baby food. We peel it, cut it in cubes, brush it with brown sugar and fresh butter.
How do you get picky kids to eat their veggies and fruits?
They love pizza, you're not going to get away from that. Pizza day is every Wednesday at the elementary schools—one of the highest participation days. So when we have a captive audience, we have fresh fruit and the vegetable is fresh salad. And we make fruit slushies at Benzie Central. They're all fruit.
Big scores since you've come on?
At Benzie Central High School, we're getting rid of the junk food machines—contracts are up this year. I'll extend the cafeteria hours after school to 4:30 and serve natural sorbets made in Benzonia by Hill Top Ice Cream, homemade soup and a half sandwich … Also, a grill donated by Paul Oliver Memorial Hospital Auxiliary for Betsie Valley Elementary is in the works. Betsie Valley is 81 percent free and reduced meals, so breakfast here is important. We'll use the grill for homemade French toast and farm fresh eggs from Paul May's organic farm in Frankfort.
Other farmers' names on your menus?
Bardenhagen Farm for potatoes and grapes and ginger gold apples, Russell Ridge Farms for Gala apples and squash, and Walt Harris for asparagus. I don't worry about tomato scares, because my tomatoes are from Zenner's hydroponic farm. Randy Rice, a beef farmer on a 100-year-old grass-fed farm, supplies beef for homemade beef stew, goulash and chili, cheeseburger pie.
Any meals you wish you could do away with?
Bosco sticks [a brand of cheese-filled frozen breadsticks popular among institutional cafeterias] are considered a meal, believe it or not. They're a favorite, but I can't think of kids using those for energy for their school day, so we serve homemade chili with them.
Any of your own specialties that make the cut?
Goulash. The gal that worked in the kitchen warned me that the kids didn't like it. I said, The kids never had my goulash. I put a little Worcestershire in it. It's one the kids love. I make it with love.

text: This work, published in the Springer Undergraduate Lecture Notes in Physics series, is intended as a college-level science text on the Manhattan Project, but serves well as a resource for scientists and non-scientists. The author, a physics professor, weaves the descriptive and technical details of the Project into a narrative in order to provide "a gateway to an intricate and compelling story"(ix). He utilizes information that has become more accessible in recent years to fill in details often missing in previous accounts. Starting in the early twentieth century, the narrative traces the development of nuclear physics leading to the first atomic bombs, the initiation and operation of the Project, and the use of atomic bombs on Japan. A final chapter addresses the beginning of the nuclear arms race, nuclear testing, arms control treaties, and deployment of nuclear weapons. The book's historical components contain descriptions of personalities and relationships between key figures, while the technological aspects are complemented by a few equations (which the author says may be skipped by the non-scientist) and numerous graphs and diagrams. Each chapter concludes with problems for students and an extensive bibliography.
