Pim commences her education of Rob
Pim and I had sex at least once a day while Chrissie was away at summer camp. Pim would make excursions to the mall and visit Victoria's Secret and other lingerie shops with Henk's money and buy outfits to drive me wild. With her exotic Asian looks and petite frame I particularly liked a yellow baby doll and panty set with stockings that really complimented her beautiful skin tone. Pim bought outfits in every color of the rainbow and enjoyed the reaction on my face and in my eyes as she would model a lavender or pink set of lingerie. I would become the wide-eyed teenage boy again and she would become the incredibly hot wife next door that I had fantasized about. Our sex just kept getting better and better.
Pim loved a lot of foreplay and she taught me how to control my orgasm and release. She would suck on my cock and take me exactly to the edge of no return. Then she would press down with her thumb to block my release and stop the fellatio until I could regain control. She would do this again and again until I could really establish control. She would put my cock in her tight pussy and contract her muscles and take me up to the point of no return, to the point of release, but somehow she knew just when to stop. She could just sense the exact moment to stop and would remain completely still while I regained control so we could start again.
Once Chrissie returned from camp Pim would often come over during the day while she was at school or she would get a sitter so we could go out dancing and then come back to my house and have long sessions of unbelievable sex. When my parents returned from their European vacation I told them I was moving out to the small guesthouse past the pool so I could be more independent and focus on my engineering studies. We never actually used the guesthouse so my parents had no objection. The real reason I wanted to be out there was so Pim could come over and visit without being noticed.
Pim continued her lessons and taught me how to lick and kiss a pussy and to drive her to the exact edge of coming, the "point of no return" as she called it, just as she had done for me. She taught me to watch her stomach muscles for spasms and for its level of tension, to sense the pressure from her fingers as they would tighten on my forearms, to listen to her breathing patterns, to feel the pressure of her fingernails as they dug into my skin. My skill level improved with her tutoring and I got to the point where I could make her scream and have her body arch off the bed in spasms as she attained total release. Pim taught me the importance of understanding a woman's body and being in control so that a woman would want to do anything for me, to gain her total trust and her total release. She told me that only when the woman was at a point of total release could the man reach the same point at the same time and then the two of us could reach total release orgasms together. Pim taught me that the passion of the woman feeds the passion of the man.
Pim also introduced me to new "love zones" as she called them. She taught me how to touch and kiss her belly button, her long and slender brown feet with pink polish on her toe nails, her slender and firm inner thighs, her smooth underarms. She taught me how to massage her body and to use scented oils and flavored lubricants. Pim taught me the importance of going SLOWLY and making everything build up. Finally, she introduced me to her bum.
I was hesitant at first to explore this new and forbidden zone, but she assured me that she had taken a long bath and cleaned it completely. She also told me that Henk had never touched or penetrated her bum. This convinced me and the trust and patience she had shown tutoring me in sex convinced me. As she lay on a towel I applied the strawberry flavored lubricant and slowly massaged around her tight and rounded butt, coming closer and closer to her bum hole. I kissed up her slender inner thighs and slowly licked her clit and pussy lips until her breathing was getting very fast. I finally used my tongue to explore around her bum. Wow, it was much tighter than any pussy I had ever touched. I used my finger and lots of lubricant to push and probe my way in. My finger, against a lot of resistance, was able to make it in a small way—perhaps half an inch. What an electric effect! Pim's breathing lurched and she tensed. My finger was only about half an inch in and already an incredible effect. I paused and let her relax as she had taught me in these circumstances. Never blunder ahead and bring a girl to orgasm too quickly, Pim had always instructed. I needed to follow her advice and slow down.
Using a little patience, by taking my time and by moving slowly, I was able to get my finger almost all the way in and to move it back and forth very gently. Pim was moaning and calling out to me to continue. Sensing the potential for more I built her up with back and forth gentle movements of my finger, in and out of her anus, over a few minutes. Once she was very excited I slowly removed my finger and moved my mouth over this new delicate orifice and probed with my tongue. Pim's moans increased in volume with the touch of my tongue. She was laying back on the bed with her legs spread and her pussy and anus directly under the control of my fingers and tongue. It was tight, her sphincter muscles were very tight, but finally my tongue was able to push its way inside and probe the anus. The strawberry flavor and the tight anus were an incredible turn on and my cock was at top pressure. Moaning and thrusting her hips, Pim reached out and gently held my bobbing cock in her right hand. She giggled and sighed and gently rubbed my eight inches of cock.
Pushing myself back a little on the bed to get better position, I moved my mouth up to her pussy and rolled my finger in lots of lubricant and simultaneously applied a fast tongue movement to her clit while I slowly penetrated her ass with my lubed up finger. My God, did Pim react. She moaned like I had never heard her before and arched her back. I struggled to keep contact with her clit using my tongue and pushed my finger deep into her ass with some rapid side to side movements. I flicked my tongue at top speed and she went into total release with a huge scream and her hips thrusting up against my mouth and chin. I held onto her the best I could with my right arm and rode out her incredible release. Her pussy went into total convulsions and contracted again and again around by tongue when it would go down past her clit and into the vagina. I had never seen a woman orgasm like this in my life.
Pim smiled at me with total contentment, her firm breast pointing up topped with erect and aroused light brown nipples. She giggled and then rose up and grabbed my cock. She took the tube of lubricant and generously slathered the strawberry smelling oils all around my eight-inch rod. She then turned onto her knees and let her athletic butt jut up into the air with her light brown anus directed towards me. Her intentions were completely clear and without any further command I positioned myself behind her. My cock head was bouncing up and down with excitement so I held it with my left hand and positioned it directly at the anus opening. Pim gently pushed back and I held my cock in place because the opening was extremely tight. Finally enough pressure was applied and with all the lubricant the engorged cock head slipped past the sphincter muscles and entered the new virgin anus. Pim moaned, she drew in her breath and her body tensed with extreme pleasure.
"Rob, I have always wanted to give you this. To give you something Henk had never had. " I smiled and my ego was certainly boosted. "Be gentle, this is my first time." she said.
We moved slowly and the incredible tightness of her ass together with the forbidden nature of this new lovemaking was building me faster than I could have expected. All of Pim's lessons of control seemed to have gone out the window as the sensations cascaded around and built me up much too rapidly. I told her I was loosing control and could come at any second. This seemed to increase her passions and instead of trying to make me last longer (as I had expected she would) she seemed to want to drive me to a new edge, a new level of passion without any delay. This unexpected urgency to her sexual intensity caused even more build up and I was dangerously close to my release. Instead of being in control I was barreling ahead towards a total sexual explosion and release.
I need to bring Pim with me….I could feel it coming and I didn't have much time. I reached underneath her with my left hand and with my lubed up fingers I searched for her little passion button, her clit. Finding the love button standing up firmly and in dire need of attention, I gently fluttered my finger across the very top of it with a rapid but extremely light touch. Pim moaned and moaned and pushed her ass back into me with her full athletic strength honed from hours of hot yoga. I knew she was about to come. I could feel my sperm building up in my balls and I tried my best to delay the release, but her ass was too tight and the friction was too much. Her sphincter muscles were pulsing and grabbing my cock. We both exploded at the same time and I shot stream after stream of cum into her ass. My head was an explosion of fireworks and sensation. Our two sweat covered bodies collapse onto the bed. I rolled her towards me and pulled up the cotton sheet and I cradled her with my right arm while gently massaging her right breast with my left arm and we both brought our lips together in a sated post coital kiss, the strawberry flavor still on my lips and tongue.

In April 2014, CGT Honduras and Fairfood International signed an agreement to implement a campaign benefiting around five thousand workers on the melon farms located in the Golfo de Fonseca region in Honduras. The union, which received training in 2013 to design effective campaigns, developed a campaign proposal to improve working conditions in the melon industry. The CGT subsequently received funding to implement their campaign, which meant the learning cycle was completed. This is the cornerstone of the 'learning by doing' approach of Fairfood International's WE Project.
The campaign, which is currently being implemented, is promoting the distribution and use of protective gear to workers in the melon industry. Read more about the most recent outcomes of the campaign in the updates section.
In 2013 Fairfood, trained and supported six labour unions in developing campaign plans to improve the working conditions of their members, with the financial support of CNV Internationaal. During the course of the Workers Empowerment Project (the WE project), the unions chose sector-specific sector changes to work on.
CGT in Honduras
The export-oriented melon industry in the deprived region of Choluteca has grown in the last decade, but workers don't reap the benefits of this booming industry. Research done in this area indicates several issues affecting the workers' wellbeing. Lack of protective gear appears to be at the root of health issues affecting many workers. To tackle this problem CGT has developed an intervention strategy aimed at reducing workers' risk of exposure to harmful substances. The campaign aims to ensure 5000 workers of the melon industry will be provided with and use adequate protective equipment.
CMTC in Costa Rica
CMTC focuses their proposal on sugarcane, an industry in which there are a lot of health risks for workers. Together with the biggest sugarcane ingenio in Costa Rica, CMTC wants to implement a training program for their employees: first,to increase awareness among the workers on the health risks associated with the cultivation and processing of the sugarcane and secondly, to train employees on how to minimise their risks at work.Topics of these trainings include `handling chemicals` and `how to use personal safety equipment in the field and the mill`.
CGT in Colombia
The banana industry in the Urabá region has suffered a decline in importance in the last years while recent international trade agreements trigger the interest of investors in non- traditional crops, such as pineapple. This has given rise to the expansion of pineapple plantations in the region, which is a more labour- intensive crop than banana, but a less organised sector. According to research done by CGT Colombia, about 2000 currently affiliated banana workers are at risk of losing their jobs or are dealing with worse working conditions in the pineapple sector. Anticipating this undesirable situation, CGT Colombia proposed a campaign aimed at ensuring that these workers preserve their current working conditions even in the event they have to shift to the pineapple plantations.
KSBSI in Indonesia
Outsourcing workers has become a common practice now in many palm oil businesses in the Riau region. According to research done by KSBSI, this has brought negative impacts to the labour conditions of about 3,000 outsourced workers in palm oil companies in different areas. Some of the pressing issues are low wages, lack of/few allowances, lack of occupational safety and health standards, social security and medical treatment. To tackle this problem KSBSI has developed a campaign proposal aimed at promoting the improvement of working conditions for outsourcing workers in palm oil companies in Riau. For doing so, the union plans to develop the networking, lobbying and campaigning capacities of 150 local trade union officers.
GFL in Ghana
Child labour has been a worrying trend in the cocoa industry in Ghana. Research done by GFL has indicated that despite the establishment of government agencies over the years, child labour still exists.Therefore, the major focus of their campaign proposal is to create awareness among farmers on the negative effects of engaging their children to work on the cocoa plantations.
CONSAWU in South Africa
CONSAWU has recognised the need to improve the working and living conditions of farm workers in the fruit industry. Their campaign proposal aims at gaining the support of agricultural workers of the West Cape Province in the SIZA Initiative. The SIZA Initiative is an ethical trade programme which includes a code of conduct, launched by the fruit companies in South Africa, in which CONSAWU is involved. They strongly believe in social dialogue and by bringing all stakeholders together in regional hubs they envision to improve the working conditions of the workers.
An independent jury (consisting of members from both Fairfood and CNV that have no link with the project) has rated the proposal of CGT in Honduras highest, therefore they will receive additional funding from CNV Internationaal for implementing their campaign in 2014. The other unions will be further supported by Fairfood to improve their proposals and to seek funding for their implementation.
After a few years trajectory, labour union confederations started to show different needs. Some of them had integrated previous years' skills and knowledge while others had not. In addition, a new labour union joined the project. Fairfood decided to tailor the capacity development activities to the needs of each of these groups.
By the end of the year, CGT Honduras had gained basic research knowledge on doing research on agricultural supply chains. KSBSI in Indonesia and CGT in Colombia had consolidated the knowledge acquired in the previous year and had improved their skills with regard to field data collection.
Finally, the labour unions that had shown more maturity in conducting research began to focus in finding solutions for the sustainability issues they had identified in previous years. The three confederations that were in this group improved their knowledge and ability to engage with sustainability initiatives. These organisations were CMTC in Costa Rica, GFL in Ghana and CONSAWU in South Africa.
Out of the three organisations, CONSAWU achieved the most impressive results. While conducting research within the WE Project, they became aware of a sustainability initiative focused on the fruit sector called SIZA. The union realised the potential of engaging positively with the industry through this type of mechanism and, after advocating and lobbying, finally decided to become part of it. The union then designed a campaign aimed at establishing regional hubs, in which representatives of workers and the fruit sector can engage in positive dialogue towards improvements of labour conditions on fruit-producing farms through the SIZA initiative.
To foster the exchange of information and experiences between the participants, Fairfood facilitated a 5-day South-South exchange among Latin American labour unions in Costa Rica. The South-South exchange strived to provide a space for face to face interactions among teams that had carried out research that year. The event was not organised as a training session, but as a space for experience exchange and knowledge building.
During the event, unions clearly showed that they were willing to go one step further and use the research findings in advocacy work. They asked Fairfood for direct support and advice on how to carry out campaigns. This was a very important moment for reflection as the feedback provided by unions led to a shift in the entire approach of the project, from focusing on capacity development to conduct research to focusing on capacity development for campaigning.
In 2011, the project placed a large emphasis on improving knowledge exchange among organisations and on allowing a greater integration of the project in each labour union's activities.
With this in mind, Fairfood organised a kick-off conference where representatives of all five participating partner labour unions in the WE project came to Amsterdam for a three day conference. The main goal of the event was to create a solid base for further cooperation during the year. In addition, participants received guidelines and training on how to carry out desk research for sector, value chain mapping and on gender.
By the end of the year, each of the labour union confederations (GFL in Ghana, KSBSI in Indonesia, CMTC in Costa Rica, CONSAWU in South Africa and CGT in Colombia) developed three research assignments. First, each of them conducted a study of the main agricultural sectors in their country and the main sustainability issues affecting them. This was done through desk research.
After, each labour union chose two sectors based on their own interests and carried out a study on gender issues and a value chain map. The freedom of choosing the sectors that were interesting to them facilitated the incorporation of the research results on the labour unions' core work. For example, CONSAWU in South Africa focused their research on the fruit sector; the CMTC in Costa Rica focused it on sugarcane and coffee. Both confederations continued working on these sectors in the following years, which shows the usefulness of the WE project for their core work.
Fairfood and CNV began their collaboration in 2008 with the implementation of a pilot project on improving research skills which was undertaken by six CNV labour union partners in low and middle income countries. These partners were recruited from Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Ghana, South Africa, Chile and Costa Rica.
The aim was to give Fairfood a better insight in the social and economic issues in certain food sectors in those countries. Furthermore, the project was aimed at enhancing the knowledge and research capacities among local labour unions, especially related to carrying out assurance procedures and desk research on sector and sustainability issues.
Unions worked on different assignments under the supervision and advice of Fairfood. In total, 18 assignments were produced about sectors such as tea, bananas or pineapples; and about issues like lack of freedom of association, gender or corruption. Fairfood incorporated the findings of some of these research assignments in their advocacy work towards companies.

The Blue Ridge Christian Academy in Landrum, South Carolina, has received financial aid from people across the world after its fourth grade science test, which appears to reject science, was posted online.
In a press release, Diana Baker, an administrator at the school, called the April 21st posting of the school's science test on Reddit.com an "attack" which "God has used it to provide affirmation regarding the importance of our work."
Popular Video
Everyone, meet Madeline Stuart. She's the first-ever professional model with Down Syndrome, and she's inspiring millions of people around the world:As noted by the Washington Post, the 4th grade science test includes several true or false questions of this sort:
"True or false, The earth is billions of years old," with the correct answer being "false."
"True or false, Dinosaurs lived millions of years ago," with the correct answer being "false."
Before the test was posted on Reddit.com, the Blue Ridge Christian Academy was struggling financially and considered closing down.
"The controversy comes in the midst of major financial struggles that BRCA is experiencing," said Angie Dentler, a teacher and publicist from Blue Ridge Christian Academy, in the press release.
"The media attention has brought awareness of the school reaching from the upstate of South Carolina, throughout the U.S. and into over 70 countries around the world. Donations have been given ranging in amounts from $1 – $1,000. Encouraging notes and emails have poured in from around world to offset the thousands of hateful comments that are not only circulating the internet and Facebook, but also direct mail, emails and phone calls to the school."
Dr. Ken Ham and Mark Looy, co-founders of Answers in Genesis, recently co-wrote an article that said the science test at Blue Ridge Christian Academy was a part of an Answers in Genesis DVD that teaches "children the history of the universe from the Bible, with a special emphasis on teaching dinosaurs from a biblical perspective."

Everyone, meet Madeline Stuart. She's the first-ever professional model with Down Syndrome, and she's inspiring millions of people around the world:Ham and Looy also claimed: "These anti-God people hate the fact that Christians are teaching children to stand on the authority of the Bible; they want to be the ones teaching children and indoctrinating them into atheism."
Other prominent Christians like Pat Robertson have slammed "Young Earth Creationists" (such as Answers in Genesis), reports ChristianPost.com.
"You go back in time, you have carbon dating, all these things, and you have the carcasses of dinosaurs frozen in time." Robertson said in 2012. "They are out there. And so there was a time when these giant raptors were on the earth and it was before the time of the Bible. So don't try to cover it up and make like everything was 6,000 years, that's not the Bible."

Passion Play: Denver Rocks
There was plenty of "passion" on hand in Denver at this year's AAPG Annual Convention and Exhibition, but that's only part of the story.
The rest of the story? There also were plenty of people.
Despite a stressed global economy as well as dark clouds over the industry for the first half of the year, the 2009 ACE brought together 7,452 enthusiastic oil and gas professionals from nearly 90 countries – the third largest number of convention attendees since the 1993 meeting in New Orleans.
"I was thrilled that our registration and attendance was as strong as it was," said Randy Ray, Denver's general chair. "Because of economic challenges and the swine flu outbreak we were conservative with our projections, but we exceeded our expectations significantly."
Hosted by the Rocky Mountain Association of Petroleum Geologists and built on the theme "A Passion for the West Lives On: Are You In?" the conference featured more than 1,000 oral and poster presentations over three days, in addition to field trips and short courses spanning a week.
More than 260 exhibitors also were on hand to demonstrate the latest technologies and services available to the E&P industry – an offering that generated considerable traffic and excitement throughout the meeting's three full days.
The same can be said about the meeting's official start.
The opening session, in addition to drawing a standing-room-only crowd to the large Four Seasons Ballroom, featured entertainment, videos, emotional moments and inspiring words that brought much applause and excitement to the event.
The "traditional" opening started in a non-traditional way, featuring the sounds of the award-winning Rocky Mountain Children's Choir and a surprise premiere showing of the "We Are AAPG" video (see related story, page 36). The session also featured words from Ray, a video sneak peek of Rio – destination for the 2009 International Conference and Exhibition –Scott Tinker's inspiring presidential address and the emotional honors and awards ceremony.
"This year's Opening Ceremony was very professional – just light years beyond what I've seen in the past," Ray said. "Scott Tinker's talk was just outstanding and reminded everyone that we are the minds that imagine the future."
Session highlights included:
"Efficiency and diversification are vital," Tinker said. "We can and must be more efficient across the board in the way we use energy. As with stocks or real estate, the more diverse our energy options, the more secure we are."
He described some of the options.
"There "likely will be a growing electrification of the vehicle fleet," Tinker said. "Although it is difficult to know, thoughtful studies indicate that plug-in hybrid vehicles – those that run on liquids and electricity – represent a reasonable transition path to a more efficient car and light-truck future. The electricity must come from somewhere!
"Alternative energies – solar, wind, tides, waves and geothermal – can and must grow. My forecast doubles alternatives approximately every seven years; no easy task. These are not limited by resource – there is plenty of wind and sun – but rather by efficiency, economics, kinetics, thermodynamics, resource limits and technology, energy density and infrastructure. Quite simply, wind, waves, tides, biomass and solar are low-density 'fuels' that require a tremendous amount of infrastructure and Earth surface area, given current technology.
"A grand challenge in energy involves major improvements in electricity storage and smart, efficient transmission grids," he said. "Battery technology has advanced, but batteries are still relatively inefficient, expensive and chemically intensive, and thus they represent an environmental challenge."
Tinker concluded that "we must build a bridge into the future.
"Given these challenges, the transition from a fossil-energy present to an alternative-energy future will take time," he said. "As with the building of any bridge, a solid foundation is vital. That foundation is fossil fuels.
"I am often asked, 'How we can reach the policy makers?' Perhaps it is not the policy maker who needs to be reached, as policy makers are simply instruments of the voting public. Poorly informed policies result from a poorly informed voter.
"If you want to influence a policy maker," Tinker said, "educate her voter base."
(Tinker's complete speech can be found online at www.aapg.org/denver/video.cfm; and a video of the presentation.)
"What elevates and differentiates Dad beyond the level of a highly successful businessman is his regard for the human element of this business," Garvin said. "He may have been the first to come out with the notion of the value of people, back when the exploration staff was just considered a large overhead expense and the first thing cut during tough times."
Garvin quoted a "landmark" paper Downey wrote in 1992: "It all begins with people … profitable exploration requires wise investment of risk capital in people's ideas," he wrote.
"You can use all sorts of fancy risk management techniques, but if applied to poor exploration ideas (it) will not create an iota of value," she said. "And in order to create great exploration ideas, you must invest in people and provide an environment that stimulates innovation."
After a brief video presentation of Downey's personal experiencesand professional career, Garvin said "as a public figure, this is how we've seen him as both the professional, and the man. But from my perspective, it's his incredible warmth, down to earth style and his unquestionable honor and integrity that makes us all feel very lucky to be associated with him."
"It's why we honor him today."
(A video of Garvin's presentation and Downey's acceptance of the Powers award can be found online at www.aapg.org/denver/video.cfm.)
Other convention highlights included:
"(It) was wonderful," Ray said. "The interview style went very well, and of course T. Boone Pickens is very entertaining to listen to."

I evolved into a pine...lame! I wanted to be a dinosaur!
Really nice game, played twice and enjoy each second of it. Won't play thrice cause there isn't much replayability. Maybe with a picture of the thing we evolved in ? Nice music, nice graphics!
Collect more lizard genes and there is a chance you'll be a dinosaur )
Amazing graphics and sound. I guess to improve you could consider adding some 'bad' elements like obstacles or bad guys to slow you down or hurt you, otherwise it feels like more of a ride than a challenge
Great production values, nice music as well. I agree with Pierrec, would be nice to see a mock-up of the final creature.
There wasn't much gameplay, but the sound and graphics were good.
Heh, primitive part human half sea bass corn...I just want this to go on for a very long time. It's a lot of fun.
That was pretty cool. It would be nice if there were some obstacles or at least a clear goal... not that evolution is goal-based!
What a wild ride! I got some pretty odd combinations xD
It'd be cool if there was visual feedback of the genebase you're amassing. Maybe a little creature in the top right of the screen that goes changing as you gather genes? I know that's a bit complex, but that the LD is over it'd be cool, eh? :)
Also, the ding sound is great once in a while, but having to hear it constantly got a bit annoying.
Had a bit of difficulty telling some of the different items apart, when their colours were quite similar and they were coming up at speed. Other than that: great work! Really liked the choice of song too - very fitting.
the speed and curvyness are fun! but the unpredictability of the track and slow sideward movement leave hardly any time to react, which leaves no room for any steering skills. and the fact that you can't fall of the track or be punished in any meaningful way even makes it unnecessary to steer. well executed and funny gene gambling nonetheless!
I loved the graphics but was hoping for a more replayable goal.

Discordianism: It is some kind of a communist sect.
No, since they did have one called Ivan, but on that theme:Boudicca, Elizabeth Báthory, Aileen Wuornos or Carol M. Bundy.
SBU is fine, we seemed to avoid the worst of it. First day of classes canceled anyway, because the surrounding areas do not have power.My power is out, internetting from my phone, getting occasional charges from the noisy-ass generator. A few trees down around town, no real flooding to speak of that I've personally seen. Overall, I lucked out.
If Luna was a furry, she'd sex humans and scream "BEASTIALITY!" at the top of her lungs at inopportune times.
I like the Luna one. She is a good one.

NEW YORK (CBS 2 / WCBS 880/AP) — Feisal Abdul Rauf was on a State Department-funded trip to the Persian Gulf, aimed at promoting reigious tolerance, and as CBS 2's Marcia Kramer reports, he's returning to New York at a time of increased worry over just where the money for Park51 is coming from.
Despite recent assurances from developer Sharif El-Gamal that "we will not take money from Iran, we will not take money from Hamas," an overwhelming number of New Yorkers want prosecutors to keep tabs on the financing.
"Because I think the terrorists think that's their trophy down there and that's what it's all about," said Jimmy Reardon of Greenwich Village.
"It's very hard because you don't want to incite any prejudice but at the same time I undertand and can respect why people are upset about it," said Tina LaMorte of Maywood, N.J.
"We don't know where they're getting the money from and we should know as Americans, as New Yorkers," said Margart Healy of Columbus Circle.
A new poll by Quinnipiac University shows that by a margin of 71 to 21, New Yorkers want the mosque moved someplace else, and by a margin of 71 to 22 they want Attorney General Andrew Cuomo to investigate the source of the funding.
The margin of error was plus or minus 2.5.
"This is going back to Jim Crow days. This is like 'OK we want you to get on the back of the bus.' That's basicaly what they're trying to tell the Islamic communicy and that's not going to be acceptable," said Zead Ramadan of CAIR.
Mosque supporters charge that investgating the funding of just one religious institution and not others shows prejudice.
"If this poll asked such questions as do you think auditing is good, they'd say no," Ramadan said. "Do you want your church or synague to be audited? No. Do you want them to be audited? They say yes. That's based in bigotry. That's based in racism. It's based in hate."
"I think it's a terrible precendent. You don't want them investigating donations to religious organizations and there's no reason for their government to do so," Mayor Bloomberg said.
Meanwhile, more than 50 leaders of Muslim organizations in New York City are defending the controversial Islamic center.
Members of the Islamic Leadership Council of Metropolitan New York gathered on the steps of City Hall Wednesday to call for a stop to religious intolerance.
They said the notion that Muslims shouldn't gather or pray near the 9/11 site is "unethical, insensitive and inhumane."
The group was joined by supporters including U.S. Rep. Charles Rangel.

A NEIGHBOUR saw a young male running from the front yard of a Munno Para home immediately after a 2012 Nissan X-Trail wagon burst into flames in the driveway.
The neighbour chased the male for a short time, before the suspect disappeared into the darkness just after 2am on Thursday, then returned to help douse the flames.
Police crime scene officers examined the vehicle and said it appeared petrol had been poured around the car before being set alight.
It was the second arson attack at the Myall Ave house in three days — a glass bottle containing petrol was also thrown against a front bedroom brick wall.
Resident and Nissan owner Brad, who did not give his surname, said he didn't "have a clue'' why he or his home had been targeted in these attacks.
He has lived at the house for six years with his wife, son, 13, and daughter, 14.
The fire significantly damaged the Nissan, which was one of two work vehicles used for his communication cable-laying business.
"My daughter's a bit upset about it but it didn't faze the boy,'' Brad, 49, said.
"(The truck) is under finance so I won't get anything (compensation) for it and I'll have to go out and get another one out of my own pocket.
"Otherwise I'll be left one (truck) short and I've just started a new contract.''
The neighbour used water from puddles in the front yard to lessen the flames before Brad dressed and came outside. He did not see anybody run from his yard.
"I put it down to kids. The neighbour said he saw one person run off but that's not to say two or three others didn't run off in another direction,'' Brad said.
"I don't have a clue (who did it) but we get a lot of kids coming through here at all hours making plenty of noise.''
Firefighters quickly doused the fire and police have seized the wagon for forensic testing.
Brad said he was "very grateful'' to his neighbour, who he had previously hardly spoken with.
"He probably saved my other truck and the house and everything in it. My kids think he's a legend,'' Brad said.
"I don't think they'll be able to salvage much of (the burned Nissan) and I'm waiting here for the assessor to come so it's already affecting my work and my staff."
Last Sunday, a Smithfield resident was critically burnt after a stolen car exploded in his driveway after being set alight.
The resident had gone to investigate after hearing someone pushing the stolen Holden on to his driveway.
Police have appealed for anybody with information on either fire to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or www.sa.crimestoppers.com.au.

definition of genetic mechanisms in the context of immunityHi there,
I'm reallly confused about a question in a past exam paper....so in class we learnt about how micronutrient deficiencies can lead to an impaired immune system allowing infections such as pneumonia to occur....so I get how that happens but part of the question asks "provide examples of the genetic mechanisms by which under nutrition reduces immunity to communicable diseases"...I don't get what they mean by genetic mechanisms? can someone please help me with this part? Thank you, b06er

Welcome to the Quilting Board!
May be a dryer sheet taped to the old man's forehead will do the trick
I can pick up 'old man smell' though.[/QUOTE]
Thanks for all those great tips. I like #10.
Be kinder than necessary,everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
Ok folks don't get your panties in a knot! it was what little girls said about a van that had been full of boys that had been camping for 2 weeks. It smelled!
Well my little webelos scouts decided to have (pardon the crudeness here folks) a 'farting contest' when I was driving them around to see Christmas lights one year. I showed them ... I rolled down all the windows and it was about 17 degrees outside. Unfortunately, that punished the drive as well as the scouts! LOL
I stitch a used dryer sheet to the right side of every quilt label. I slit the dryer sheet and flip it right side out. Always gives my labels perfect corners and it sure helps when I applique it onto the quilt itself. I'm surprised that tip wasn't on there.
Proud mom/step-mom to 8 children. We promote awareness of Autism and Huntington's Disease. Please pm me if interested in sending Campbell's Soup Labels or box tops which we collect for our kids' schools.
Do the free and clear sheets work too?

It will be the underdogs taking on perennial playoff favourites in our mock NHL playoff championship.
The Edmonton Oilers now face the Pittsburgh Penguins after both narrowly defeating the Los Angeles Kings and New York Rangers respectively in the last round of voting.
What started out as a fun way to predict the NHL season is now entering the final phase as Canadian fans have to endure a third lockout over the last two decades.
The voting in the final begins now, and will wrap up on Wednesday, Oct. 3 at 12 p.m. EDT.
You can also look back at our playoffs in the third round, second round, first round and our regular season.

"Keith Kloor's interesting piece in The Washington Post Magazine on Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s anti-vaccine crusade includes this interesting fact: 'All six of his children--ages 13-29--have been fully vaccinated.'
That's a bit of a surprise in the family of man who is probably second only to the sometime actress Jenny McCarthy in the zeal with which he has attacked vaccines. But it doesn't seem to have dampened Kennedy's anti-vaccine efforts. The issue concerns a mercury-containing preservative called thimerosal, once used in a lot of childhood vaccines but not used only in some flu vaccines, Kloor reports. ...
The story raises an interesting question: Why give Kennedy ink now in the pages of The Washington Post? Why risk attracting more allies to his lone wolf campaign?"

Pension promises can be altered, legal scholar says
We have confessed that the pension wars conjure, for us at The Watchdog, our nerdy high school chemistry teacher (upon whom we had a terrific crush), who made us chant (in unison) "Nothing, nothing, nothing, never, ever, ever, changes half-life."
He was talking about radioactivity, of course, but if you replace "half-life" with "pension benefits for public workers," you get the mantra that's chanted throughout California's halls of power today. Nothing nothing nothing never ever ever can change retirement benefits once they've been granted.
The Little Hoover Commission -- a state watchdog group -- was roundly eviscerated last year for suggesting that there might, indeed, be a legal way to roll back uber-generous pension benefits granted over the past decade. Impossible, critics chortled; decades of court rulings say that pension promises are contracts that cannot be broken, and we're forever shackled by the formula in place when workers were hired. Benefits can go up, but never down.
And now comes a piece in the Iowa Law Review by University of Minnesota law professor Amy B. Monahan, who agrees with the Little Hoover Commission. She says that the current perception about the invincibility of pension promises goes back to three words in a 1917 California Supreme Court decision about benefits for a police widow. The Voice of San Diego explains it well:
"At issue in that 1917 decision was the legal status of pensions. Are they bonuses granted to employees after their service to the government? Workers' property akin to their houses or other possessions? Or part of their employment contracts?
"The 1917 decision didn't make a definitive call. Instead it used the three words, 'in a sense,' to link pensions to unbreakable contracts for the first time. In the 95 years since that initial decision, courts in California and other states have expanded on that three-word phrase to the point where we are now with pensions."
Law professor Monahan called this legal principle the "California Rule," and argues that it's all wrong. The courts improperly infringed on legislative power, she argues, and the rule doesn't fit with contract and economic theory. The Legislature never said pensions were untouchable, she contends.
Major pension reform initiatives were just passed in San Diego and San Jose -- and both are headed to court. The day of reckoning may be upon us.
"California courts have put in place a highly restrictive legal rule that binds the legislature without the court ever finding clear and unambiguous evidence of legislative intent to create a contract," Monahan wrote.
Current pension reform efforts only tackle newly hired workers -- and do nothing about what's owed to current workers. If governments could reduce pension benefits of current workers going forward -- not for the past time they've already worked, but for the future still to come -- they might wrestle those multi-billion-dollar unfunded liabilities down to a more manageable size.
Check out the law review article here, and Voice of San Diego's cogent analysis here.

Re: My Final 7 Round (Ravens only) Mock Up
This is a great mock draft and I'd be pretty happy if it turned out this way. I just have a couple of questions for you:
(1) Do you really think Khaseem Greene would fall to the end of the 3rd round (some mocks had him even being picked at the end of the 1st round)? And wouldn't Sio Moore or Bostic be better and more realistic values here (and I think they are younger too) if either is available?
(2) Jordan Mills in the 4th rather than Chris Faulk. I know Faulk is recovering from a knee injury but if he is healthy, what is your rationale for Mills over Faulk as a LT?
Other than those questions, I like this mock alot!

Re: My Final 7 Round (Ravens only) Mock Up
Nice job. In the end the Ravens have enough picks that they could move up if needed. Oz has a track record of dealing.
Guys I like with the first pick are Allen and Hopkins. Not sure I would spend that pick on a LB or S.
I like Fragel and Quessenberry.
I like the idea of taking a flyer on Mauti of PSU.
In the end it is about getting value for your picks and Ozzie and his staff have been good at doing that. This year IMO the stakes are higher because they need 2-3 guys to have a major impact this season.
Re: My Final 7 Round (Ravens only) Mock Up
I like it. I have to read up on Jordan Mills more but thats basically the same spot i have them taking a T or some type.

Re: My Final 7 Round (Ravens only) Mock Up
I'm making my final 7 round mock draft next Sunday... Bc
Although Walsh's system of offense can compensate for lack of talent; however, defense is a different story. According to Walsh, talent on defense was essential and could not be compensated for. What did Walsh do in 1981? He acquired physical and talented players on defense.
Re: My Final 7 Round (Ravens only) Mock Up
Agree on Brown. He was a liability down the stretch and missed some pivotal tackles. Disagree on Graham. I don't remember him getting picked on much at all throughout the stretch run. When there were important pass plays going against us over the final 4-5 regular season games and the postseason, it was usually against Pollard, Reed, or Brown...or occasionally Cary Williams.
Re: My Final 7 Round (Ravens only) Mock Up
Quinton Patton has a chance to be a good NFL receiver. There was a game he had against Texas A&M that was just amazing. He just took over the LA Tech offense. Very much like a Derrick Mason in his prime. I'd be very happy to get him in that spot.

Re: My Final 7 Round (Ravens only) Mock Up
Mills has tremendous size and power in his upper and lower body. Mills is always hustling, and doesn't stop working until the whistle blows. He shows good awareness on stunts and sells play action passes very well. Mills has a very good first step. Takes a powerful inside step to cut off defenders. Showcases this step and balance on seal and reach blocks. Coordinated, with a good pass set.
Inconsistent in his aiming point. Will grab outside of the chest plate, which will result in holding calls. Mills isn't very quick off the snap, and can be beaten almost instantaneously because of this. Mills can also be found lunging at his blocks too often. Never played left tackle.

Re: My Final 7 Round (Ravens only) Mock Up
First, thank you very much. I appreciate the feedback.
To answer your questions:
(1) I do think Khaseem Greene could fall a bit. Not because he isn't a good player, he is, but I am predicting a big run on receivers, RB's, and offensive linemen in the 2nd round. So, I think guys like Greene and Bostic could slide down into the 3rd round. Sio Moore, as per my board, was not available. I actually had him going earlier to the Titans, IIRC. However, Bostic was available. I like Bostic as a prospect, but I don't think he is anywhere near the athlete that Greene is. I'm actually pretty conservative when it comes to draft prospects, and Bostic would be more of my tendency, but I think Greene is just an exceptional player, leader, and athlete. He was Rutger's defense and that D was pretty damn good the last few years.
(2) I like Chris Faulk, but after watching some LSU games with him at LT...he doesn't scream LT to me. Honestly, Jordan Mills doesn't exactly scream LT to me either, but I think Mills is lighter on his feet than Faulk and I really REALLY like the aggressiveness Mills brings to the table. That guy is just flat out mean. I want that kind of mentality on the Ravens OL because KO is mean, Yanda is mean, Oher has some mean streak to him, and even Gino Gradkowski is pretty feisty. I want my OL to be nasty and tough as nails. I think Mills fits that bill more than Faulk.Disclaimer: The content posted is of my own opinion.

Distortion...Comparing two drivers for use as mids
I have some old drivers that I am considering using. One is a very old cup midrange. I measured it using HOLM, and compared it with a more current driver at approximately 100 dB at 6 or 7 feet. The old mid is very flat, and has no breakup that I can see. The 3rd order distortion is roughly -50 dB. The newer driver is roughly -60 dB. Most of my listening is below 90 dB, so 100 dB would be the max for music for very short periods. (Maybe one song.) What are the odds that I could even hear a difference? I would think that 50 dB down would be inaudible.

I'm not sure why these posts are blank. I used an SPL meter at my seat. Then I matched the measurements of both drivers, and then compared the distortion.

In my experience THD is generally a reasonable proxy for IMD and -50dB IMD is about the limit of audibility; I would suggest including other harmonics besides the third and seeing where the drivers end up. I've found I hear distinct differences between drivers measuring at -40dB THD and ones at -50dB THD in similar conditions, though that's sighted A/B between drivers with different Thiele-Small parameters and hence includes factors besides the IMD floor. FWIW, my subjective impression is the change in IMD levels is noticeable amongst the other differences.
Really the best way to settle it would be to set up both drivers and blind A/B them. You might find you notice the distortion. You might find you notice other things. I would be surprised if you found they sound the same. |

Second order harmonics were higher than the third order harmonics on both drivers. Maybe 10 dB higher in a few spots. Everything else was down about -70 dB. I mostly just want to make use of the mid, but knowing the newer driver is a little better just kind of naws at me. I'm lazy and impatient when it comes to building boxes. The baffle of this speaker has already been altered several times, but this time I need to replace the baffle. I could build a mid enclosure, and use the newer driver, but I'm just having trouble deciding. The Q of the woofer box will be less affected if I use this cup mid, instead of adding a .4 cu-ft box for the newer driver.

Daniel Radcliffe says having girlfriend put end to 'gay rumours'
London, Mar 14 : Daniel Radcliffe says his relationship with girlfriend Rosie Coker changed his reputation by putting to rest rumours that he's gay.
The British actor has gone from `Harry Potter' to Hollywood heartthrob thanks to his role in `The Woman In Black'.
"I had to smile when stories emerged questioning whether I was gay. Obviously I knew I wasn't but people were curiously desperate to suggest I was," the Daily Express quoted him as saying.
"The papers used to say I had a gay face, whatever that is, or a gay voice but it simply wasn't true. Now I have a girlfriend so I'm guessing everyone finally believes me," he said.
Radcliffe met Coker, 22, a film production assistant, on the `Harry Potter' set in 2007 but their relationship became widely known only last year.
"I decided a long time ago to be open about everything in my life so when photos appeared of me and Rosie together I confirmed we were dating and it put an end to the rumours," he added.
However, Radcliffe has no qualms about associating himself with the gay community. He's recorded several TV adverts for the Trevor Project, a US-based charity supporting gay teens at risk of suicide. He's also about to play gay poet Allen Ginsberg in the thriller `Kill Your Darlings'.
"When you know a gay guy has a crush on you it's the most flattering thing," he has said. (ANI)

Notre Dame Golden Moments - The Twenty Memorable Events That Shaped Notre Dame Football is an exciting portrayal of the most exciting and important events in the history of one of America's most-loved college football teams. The book covers the "top 20" games and events that have shaped the mystique of The Fighting Irish…as selected by a poll of Notre Dame fans. The DVD includes game highlights, the key plays, the dominant players who helped build a loyal following from coast to coast.
Notre Dame Golden Moments - The Twenty Memorable Events That Shaped Notre Dame Football has the full cooperation and support of the university. Full access to university athletic department archives has been granted for development of the book.
The colorful history, traditions, and success enjoyed by Notre Dame is unprecedented in college football. Since the Associated Press began certifying the winner of its national crown in 1936, Notre Dame has won more national championships than any other team…8 titles. Without a doubt, the "Notre Dame Victory March" is the most recognizable collegiate fight song in the nation.
"Outlined against a blue, gray October sky the Four Horsemen rode again". After Notre Dame's 13-7 victory over Army on October 18, 1924(Golden Moment #8), Grantland Rice penned the most famous passage in the history of sports journalism.
