The rollout of new Golf variants continues this week, with the online unveiling of the new diesel-powered 2013 GTD 'warm hatch'.
Like its predecessor in the current sixth-generation Golf line-up, the new GTD takes styling cues from the petrol GTI hotbox and matches them with a torquey new diesel engine.
Producing 135kW and 380Nm, the 2.0 litre turbodiesel driving the new GTD betters the outgoing model's 125kW, while properly besting its 280Nm of torque.
A choice of six-speed manual and six-speed DSG automatic transmissions are offered and, while it isn't GTI quick, a claimed 0-100km/h sprint time of 7.5 seconds is nothing to shrug at.
Frugal fuel use is the GTD's top trick, of course. In manual form, Volkswagen promises a return of 4.2 l/100km, while the DSG auto lists a similarly slight 4.7 l/100km.
As with the GTI, the top diesel gets a honeycome grille, sporting new bumpers and skirts, a hatch-mounted spoiler, darkened LED tail-lights and chromed dual exhaust tips. The package sits on 17-inch alloy wheels wrapped in 225/45 rubber.
Inside, there's the traditional tartan sports seats and a black headliner, along with Volkswagen's flat-bottomed tiller, stainless steel pedals and GTD badging.
Speaking with TMR today, Volkswagen Australia's Karl Gehling confirmed the GTD is currently under consideration for a local debut.
As for the regular 2013 Golf range, expect an Australian debut to occur in the second quarter of this year.

Jeep – Just as they did with the Clint Eastwood spot, the Chrysler company has again delivered the patriotic, emotional ad. This commercial was moving and relevant to the Jeep brand.
Dodge – "So God Made a Farmer" spot. The late Paul Harvey's stirring speech gave life to an otherwise simple ad, reminding America of the principles and values that make this country, and Dodge, great.
McDonalds – After a game in a sweaty locker room?
Taco Bell – is for old people? (the Spanish translation Fun. song was terrible)
Subway and Pizza Hut – deliver boring commercials
Jack in the Box – 80's rock ad was confusing and irritating. Hot mess burger? Hot mess commercial.

- "Social media is a double-edged marketing tool"
"Social media is a double-edged marketing tool"
Sony Bhandwalkar, Head of Strategic Marketing, ITD, Schneider Electric India, on the practicality of using social media platforms in the Indian marketing landscape. By Satyaki Sarkar
Over the last 17 years, Sony Bhandwalkar has fine-tuned the art of building and implementing a marketing strategy that seamlessly aligns with business goals and delivers growth. She has worked in various business verticals, including IT, electricals, electronics, networking, and telecommunications. At Schneider Electric India she leads the country's 'go to market' marketing strategy. Predominantly involved in the B2B space, Sony has a number of unique insights into the current marketing landscape, specifically social media marketing, which is an important medium.
"Social media is a mandate today in the marketing world and, by all accounts, it will only further penetrate all aspects of life and work. It has the power of drawing 'collective consciousness' towards a cause, a brand, a lifestyle or a person and hence social media is like a double-edged sword, it can be leveraged in a positive as well as an extremely negative way," says Sony.
Two sides of the coin
Social media is an amazing way to engage with customers, but it comes with a huge price and responsibility. We've created an age where engaging our stakeholders is all the rage. We work so hard to get customers to Like us, Tweet us or write a review, that we often overlook the social media monster we've created. "In consumer marketing space or personal marketing, when you want to make your public persona stronger, it can be an excellent tool to drive positive outcomes and favourable impressions," says Sony. "A very small action or response on social media can have a huge impact on the reputation and goodwill of the company or person. However, the opposite is also true, and the scary part is that most of the time it is very easy to not even be aware of the repercussions that a tiny action might have. Consumers today have a voice, a share in the conversation about your brand. That's why it's important to measure the engagement and passion surrounding your brand. This makes it an extremely responsible medium to use, which promotes careful judgement calls and a strong foresight. It puts the onus on the marketing person who is in charge of the strategy to be adopted and planning the outcome that is desired."
The practical aspects
"Social media is currently one of the main encouragers of ADD or Attention Deficit Disorder, where you need to see something interesting every second. If something doesn't hold your attention, you move on instantly as there is never a shortage. But through this process you can also understand how a customer's journey takes place and the important factors determining it. However, since India is largely a developing nation than a developed one, the Internet adoption rate is only 34 per cent of the population of 1.3 billion. Out of this 34 per cent about 15-20 per cent use some form of social media and out of which probably just 10 per cent is going to be part of your relevant target audience. So it's a matter of knowing whether your target audience uses social media frequently and regularly enough, and then taking a call about how you can use it as a medium for your marketing operations. It all boils down to what you are trying to say, and to whom you are trying to say it. Among the many social mediums like Facebook, LinkedIn, twitter, blogging sites, Pinterest, Instagram, Quora, etc I feel that Facebook is very much a personal platform revolving around lifestyle products, causes and socialising habits. So I don't believe these platforms can make a significant impact on B2C more than B2B.
"Apps are extremely handy tools in the digital age, which brings every imaginable form of functionality, reach and access to the user. It is the phase of mobile apps, much like the dotcom phase, which we saw for the first time during the rise of the Internet. At the time we felt like everything else before it had been done away with, and would soon become obsolete. I believe that while advancements are happening all the time, what we are living in currently is also a phase. However, right now it is an extremely great tool that has a lot of opportunity to offer while being a cost effective option available. It is extremely easy to create an app of our own, and immediately start off an entire business campaign through it. Very soon robotics and AI may takeover as tools for a marketer to 'convert' a prospective customer. Having said that, using social media platforms as marketing mediums have their advantages as well as their disadvantages."
Catering to GenY
"GenY are aka 'Digital natives' with good reason, because 70 per cent of this Generation Y claim to have a major impact on their lives should they lose their smartphones or inaccessibility to their computers and Internet. This generation forms a wide age group of target audience who don't shy from sharing their opinions about their likes, hates, brand preference and in India I feel companies are continuing to make the blunder of not getting involved in online conversations about their brand, even if they are having more than 50 per cent of their customers coming from online purchases. They are even ignoring a lot of customer complaints that reach them via social media! To GenY this is the equivalent of hanging up on a customer who calls the customer service phone line—can we afford this?
"Facebook's new Live feature, specifically, has been gaining a lot of popularity and is being used by several organisations to live stream important events, celebrations, and announcements. It is a very good thing as well. Not everyone can be invited to the launch of a company's product, be it a new perfume or a car. So even without attending it, people can watch what is going on, live, from the comfort of their home."
Social media marketing in India
"Looking at the Indian population, I don't think social media platforms will soon replace traditional forms of marketing and advertisements. Firstly, we would need to assume that all of India has access to a smartphone or the Internet. Out of the 1.3 billion population, the Internet adoption rate is 34 per cent and out of this only an approximately 15-20 per cent are social media familiar. So if we profile the 1.3 billion for an addressable market for a product we will be fools to ignore the ones who don't have Internet access or aren't social media savvy. This is why at the moment we still need to continue with a mix of traditional media and social media. If, however, if your target segment falls within the demographics of A+B class cities with two to three connected devices prospects, then social media can become one of the major tools for your campaign. It's not over and done here—it is not enough to merely have a social media presence, brands need to make themselves useful to their customers by providing them with information, support, and the ever popular 'incentive'. We need to engage with the customers while understanding the buying journey."
Dangers and risks
"Although information technology greatly enhance our lives it greatly impinges on our privacy and security running a risk of interception or invasion both lawful and unlawful. The social media domain and the GenY open book lifestyle allows for such invasions in the form of identity theft, virtual voyeurism, virtual stalking sometimes affecting real life also. We vent out our frustrations on platforms like Facebook, Twitter, etc, but little do we know how the picture we uploaded last week, or the status we posted an hour ago can be misused. Although there are a number of technological measures through which these risks can be reduced, it is equally important to have a robust legal regime in place that lays emphasis on the maintenance of privacy.
"Additionally, social media, ironically, is connected and disconnected at the same time. While Wikipedia defines social media as 'computer-mediated that allow the creating and sharing of information and different forms of expression…', we are drifting away from the human interaction and connectedness, finding solace in a virtual world promoting a culture of non-participation and seclusion. That is something we need to keep a look into, and be careful so that it doesn't take over and completely change our lives.
"This is the age when we need to be extra careful and responsible, and be constantly aware of our actions, be it on social media or otherwise. We need to have a strong grasp of the possible repercussions and consequences that even a small act can have.
"Having said that, from a professional standpoint, we really need to pull up our socks and measure the ROI that we are gaining by using these mediums. We have to judge and balance the results and rewards while comparing them to the benefits earned. So the most important thing for us, currently, would be to develop a more effective marketing and social media strategy, efficient and precise way of measuring and monitoring it all accurately, be it in targeted marketing or general marketing, and decide on the relevance and need, as opposed to the results."

Yes, yes it is.
"No U Turn" signs are made to be ignored. Usually when they're telling you not to make a u turn that's when you need to make it most. However, there are some situations where you should respect what the aforementioned sign is saying, such as when you're driving a bus on the highway. This Polish bus driver obviously didn't do that. A charter bus takes forever to do anything. A freeway u turn needs to be executed quickly. Is it that hard to see what the issue is?
As you'd expect traffic backs up and horns are honked. Hopefully the bus driver never lives this one down. Seriously, what the hell was this guy thinking?

Networks of the future will be worlds apart from today's relatively mundane ones that simply carry packets from one end to the other. With the explosion of Peer-To-Peer (pc-to-pc direct data transfer), high definition video streaming and ubiquitous computing projects like Internet are looking at a scenario where even light bulbs and toasters will have an Internet Protocol (IP) address in affect making household compliances capable of accessing as well as being controlled by the internet. Why do these household appliances need to be connected to the internet or even be controlled through the internet?
For starters efficient usage of energy and centralized control, following that train of thought we are looking at a scenario where even light bulbs and toasters will have IP addresses and will be hooked onto the internet – networks as we understand them today may be overwhelmed by the load of data. This has naysayers saying how the extra data is going to clog the data pipes flooding them with data rendering them useless whereas others have grave security concerns about the usage of the data.
This said networks of the future will look different and will most probably work on different protocols. Such networks will not need full time chaperoning which is the job of many a systems administrator. These networks have been named adaptive networks; their job will be to provide a personalized experience for every user, with minimum maintenance. Adaptive networks will also seamlessly support different applications life Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), video conferencing, video surveillance, wireless applications computing on demand or any other new applications that are developed and used by us. Currently, most networks have a one-size fits all philosophy when it comes to applications and when newer demands start to rise on the network, it starts showing signs of a imminent breakdown. Security is also an important aspect, and future networks will be able to detect security attacks and take steps to fight back, very much like the immune system in our body.
The scenario seems very Utopian, but already the Pro Curve Networking initiative from the networking arm of HP has a neat solution that will make the networks of the future "think" the way they are supposed to. Each port (access path) on the router or switch will have individual silicon chips that would monitor the traffic flow of the network. So one chip manages your toaster the other your computer and the third your TV. These mini-processors will have software installed on them to optimize the running of each and every device connected to them and because the software is programmable ports can easily switch from one application to the other according to demand.
Such architecture will ensure that the available capacity is optimised for all these bandwidth hungry applications. Another big advantage for these decentralised architecture is that there will be no single choke point in the network, therefore ensuring that even in the case of a disaster, some part of the network will always be up and running. Contrast that with today's scenario where the networks are as strong as their weakest link – hubs, routers and switches case and point being a ship's anchor gone astray disconnected most of the Middle-East and Asia.

Hand Injuries - Prevention
Many hand injuries can be prevented by taking sensible precautions or by avoiding obviously risky behaviours. One of the most common behaviours, especially amongst young men in social situations, is to damage their hands by punching each other or punching objects in anger such as doors or walls. This commonly results in fractures to the metacarpals or fingers, injuries which need careful management for the best functional outcome. The use of knives should be carefully regulated with training and supervision for those who work with them routinely. Separating frozen objects with a pointed knife whilst holding the object is a relatively common reason for stabbing a knife through the palm.
Health and safety regulations should be closely observed when operating machinery or dealing with electrical equipment. Injuries to the hands are almost always preventable with a little planning and forethought. Machinery with moving parts, especially rotational ones, requires operators to avoid wearing gloves or jewellery or loose clothing especially around the cuffs. In other situations gloves of the appropriate type should be used. Hands should not be placed in dangerous positions, so push sticks for saws or brushes to clean away machine debris should be employed.

Yeah, I'm back. I admit it: I'm a fairweather blogger. Actually, I'm more of a crapweather blogger, but what of it?
When life gets stressful, I make lists. As such, here are 10 things that I'm really looking forward to (in no particular order):
1. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2. Even though it's in 3D (which I hate, thank you very much), I can't wait for the final installment of the film franchise. Harry, Hermione, Ron, the final battle, Bellatrix getting taken down by Mrs. Weasley–it's got to be amazing.
2. The Mother's Day Tea at the kiddo's school. Here's her performance from last year:
3. The Royal Wedding. When Charles and Diana got married, I woke up in the middle of the night and sat glued to the TV in my dad's La-Z-Boy chair. I obsessively collected Royal Wedding paraphenalia including Charles & Di paper dolls and every hardcover book on the couple to ever hit the bargain table at Coles. I am so watching this wedding.
4. The movie version of The Help. I really loved this book and can't wait to see the movie. Emma Stone is a gem and I think she'll make a great Skeeter.
5. Mommy/Daughter Week. Every summer, Scarlett and Chad spend a week hitting every theme park in the province. This year, I'm countering Daddy/Daughter Week with Mommy/Daughter Week. It won't involve roller coasters, but it may involve manicures and fancy picnics. I can't wait.
6. A visit from my mom. It's been over six months since she was diagnosed with MAC, but she's still not able to fly. We were hoping she'd be able to come for Easter, but we're now keeping our fingers crossed for a May visit.
7. Berry season. I can't wait for all of my favourite berries to be in season. I'm tired of paying premium for the only fruit that doesn't make me projectile vomit or erupt into hives.
8. Tom's weather. I bought two pair of Tom's shoes last summer, and wore the hell out of them. Once I can feel convinced that it won't snow again, I'm picking up two more.
9. Mad Men Season 4. We watch TV on Blu-ray or DVD, so we're always way behind. I don't have to wait long for this one, though–we're starting it tomorrow.
10. The weekly meeting I attend every Friday at 2:00. It's hands down the best workday hour of the week.
I feel better already. What are you looking forward to?

Grainger Games - Reviews
Current Standing on TrustPilot Grainger: Poor 4.6 from 0 - 10.
From personal experience customer service response time hasn't been to bad, maybe 3/4 days has been my longest wait. The bad side is the response's are pretty half arsed with little help or assurance.
Unfortunately I have never received a single game I have ordered from them 3/3 soon to be 4 out of 4 - Always cancelled at the 7 day mark of "Processing" as it never looks like they are going to post even thought it state's In-stock.
Has anyone had a successful purchase with Grainger Games via HUKD ?
It's a shame really, I would like an alternative to Game.
Please post your good & bad experiences.

AUTHOR'S NOTE: I tried to inform me how a Vulcan woman experiences her pon farr. Unfortunately there are only a few informations about it. The book "Dwellers in the crucible" by Margaret Wander Bonanno was a great help. The author describes the pon far of a Vulcan female while she and a Human female were kidnapped by the Klingons and Romulans. The story of the book plays between TOS and TNG. The Vulcan words I used are from the site http://home.teleport.com/~vli/vlif.htm Thank you very much fort this tip Nadia.
SERIES: This story continues the series Change, Heartbeat, Morningdawn, Cover, Dusk, Questions, Pain, Talk and Preparations.

By Olli
Abruptly, T'Pol sat up in her bed! She was startled!
Pain hammered in her head, blood rushed in her ears and her heart thumped wildly. Instinctively she knew what she had to do and reached out for Hoshi.
She was gone! Hoshi had left her!
T'Pol gasped for breath as the pain in her body increased, she cringed.
After a moment the painful feeling of loneliness vanished and panting she lay still in the sweaty and messy heap of sheets. She could feel Hoshis body heat and could still smell her. The young woman couldn't be far away and T'Pol would take back what was hers!
"T'Pol ?"
The Vulcan's head jerked in the direction of the sound.
She was there!
The young human had gone to the bath room and when she returned into the living room she stopped dead, scared at the picture in front of her! When Hoshi had left the bed a few minutes ago T'Pol had been sleeping peacefully, but now she sat in the bed, stared at her and breathed heavily through clenched teeth. Suddenly the Vulcan jumped from the bed and threw herself at Hoshi. T'Pol wrapped her arms around the Human and pressed the young woman on her body. The iron grip forced the air from Hoshi's lungs. T'Pol still breathed with clenched teeth; her body burned! The Vulcan stared at Hoshi; her eyes were small slits like the eyes of a beast hunting down its prey.
Hoshi was scared!
But then worry mixed with Hoshi's fear. She worried about T'Pol. Her body heat was beyond everything Hoshi had ever felt and she could feel the incredible racing of the Vulcan's heart.
She had Hoshi in her arms! Hoshi was with her! She had not left her!
T'Pol calmed down. The pain in her head diminished, the blood rushing in her ears, too. It was time to take her mate! Her hand roamed over Hoshi's t-shirt, T'Pol could feel the soothing coolness of her mate's skin. Her hand slid higher, she caressed Hoshi's breast and then her hand roamed over the young woman's throat to her face. She caressed Hoshi's cheek, then she drew back her hand a little bit till the tips of her fingers found certain points in the Human's face.
Despite T'Pol's claiming behaviour Hoshi relaxed a little bit. The tender touches of her lover showed her that the T'Pol she knew was still there. She shivered as the Vulcan caressed her cheek and she leaned into the touch. Hoshi closed her eyes and let T'Pol hold her.
But then there were only T'Pol's fingertips in her face and she felt disappointment about the loss. In the next moment a razorlike pain stabbed into her brain!
Hoshi's eyes opened wide and she gasped for air. She tried to speak but she couldn't! She tried to free herself from the Vulcan's grip but she was not strong enough. Her body stiffened, the pain became unbearable and then suddenly it seemed as if a wall broke down in her head!
The pain was gone!
Hoshi's knees went weak she sank into T'Pol's arms. She could feel the Vulcan's fingertips at her face and the slowly reassuring heartbeat of the other woman. Hoshi could feel her own heartbeat, too and was baffled. Their heartbeats were the same! In the next moment a wave of warmth and love flooded her mind. Again Hoshi gasped for air, she wrapped her arms around T'Pol's neck and was able to hold herself upright. She opened up to the emotions which floated through her mind. She gave herself over to them; she knew they were T'Pol's feelings! Hoshi enjoyed every moment of this mind meld.
After a life time or one second - Hoshi wasn't able to count the time - she felt something else. There was something someone behind the emotions! It was T'Pol Hoshi realized! Not only her lover's emotions but her consciousness! Then she heard a voice in her head speaking to her without words.
"Hoshi, nam-tor nash-veh." (Hoshi, it is I.)
Hoshi didn't know why but she knew the right answer. "T'Pol, dahshal s'nash-veh heh worla dahshal. Worla eh kwon-sum estuhn heh vesht estuhl. Ragel-tor etek na'shi kru'minik." (T'Pol, parted from me and never parted. Never and always touching and touched. We meet at the appointed place.)
T'Pol answered. "Hoshi, dahshal s'nash-veh heh worla dahshal. Worla eh kwon-sum estuhn heh vesht estuhl. Bek-tor tu nash-veh." (Hoshi, parted from me and never parted. Never and always touching and touched. I await you.)
T'Pol laid her fingertips on the right points in Hoshi's face. She concentrated on her mate's mind but it was strange. Against all she had ever heard about a mind meld she felt like she was swimming in syrup! She doubled her efforts and formed her mind to a spear which she forced forward merciless.
Hoshi's cry of pain couldn't pierce the rushing of blood in the Vulcan's ears and the painful thundering in her head. But even if she had heard the cry she would have ignored it! Hoshi was hers! She had the right to take her!
Suddenly the spear reached light! T'Pol could move freely, she felt Hoshi's mind and opened her own and let her feelings flow.
The Vulcan registered how Hoshi opened her mind and by itself the words of the ancient oath appeared in her Pon Farr fogged mind. T'Pol started speaking
The oath was spoken!
Hoshi recognized that the mind meld had worked! T'Pol had been in her mind had forced her way into her head! But Hoshi knew that her lover didn't know what she had done, she had reacted by instinct, not on purpose. But had she taken the oath by her own free will? Or had T'Pol forced her? No, decided Hoshi, she was certain even in this state T'Pol was not able to to rape her! The Vulcan might have projected the words in her mind but she had spoken them by her own free will!
Hoshi looked at T'Pol, she hadn't registered when or how the Vulcan had withdrawn from her mind. Then Hoshi leaned forward and kissed her. It was not a part of the Vulcan mating ceremony she knew Hoshi didn't know how she knew it, she just knew it but what they had done still wasn't a traditional mating ceremony. They had done it without a Vulcan priest, without the traditional singings and without their families. What they had done was nothing more than the basics!
T'Pol felt warm and soft lips on her own as the next phase of Pon Farr hit her. After the joining of the minds the joining of the bodies had to follow! The genetic program demanded the reproduction but the mental fix on Hoshi allowed the Vulcan to ignore the fact that she couldn't reproduce with a female.
Hoshi was surprised as T'Pol lifted her up. She clung instinctively to the Vulcan, wrapped her arms around T'Pol's neck and her legs around the other woman's waist. Almost effortlessly, she was taken to the bed and slowly T'Pol laid the object of her desire on the mattress. She took Hoshi by her shoulders and forced her back, in the Vulcan's eyes sparkled a fire. Hoshi's heartbeat increased in excitement.
Pushing Hoshi back T'Pol bent down and kissed her with a passion Hoshi had never experienced before. As T'Pol's tongue slipped between her lips she moaned, the Vulcan became fierce. She moved to lie on top of her mate and felt the heartbeat of the young Human. Hoshi's feet were slowly stroking up and down T'Pol's legs.
The Vulcan's hand began to roam over Hoshi's slender body while she continued her kissing. Hoshi was still pinned down by the Vulcan's body but moved in ecstasy under her lover. Suddenly T'Pol sat up and shoved her hands to the collar of Hoshi's t-shirt. With a hard jolt she tore the shirt apart. The fact that Hoshi lay helpless and uncovered under her aroused the Vulcan even more. T'Pol watched what was hers! She laid her hands on Hoshi's breasts and felt the hard nipples; with a firm grip she massaged them.
Hoshi moaned again and breathed heavily. She felt no pain; T'Pol's grip was just a fraction away from pain but it never crossed the line. She was never before taken in this way and Hoshi felt her body respond to this new experience. She relaxed completely.
The Vulcan recognized that Hoshi had surrendered to her will, her hands roamed over the Human's belly, massaged the smooth skin firmly and Hoshi moaned again. T'Pol's fingers found their way into Hoshi's panties and tore them apart! As the elastic band snapped against Hoshi's body the Human moaned again for lust! Not for pain!
Now Hoshi became more courageous. She caressed T'Pol's thighs, slowly her hands roamed under the Vulcan's pyjama top. As her hands touched the hot Vulcan her eyes widened and she gasped for air.
T'Pol let go of Hoshi for a moment and took off her pyjama top. Hoshi stretched her arms but she could only touch the bottom of the Vulcan's breasts. The touch light as a feather let the Vulcan moan aloud! T'Pol let herself fall on her back and struggled to get off her pyjama pants. Hoshi sat up, grabbed the pants and almost dragged them off her lover. In a few seconds the Vulcan was naked and lowered herself down on Hoshi again, pressing herself on the Human and the cool skin caused a shiver to run through the Vulcan's body.
Again T'Pol kissed Hoshi fiercely, their tongues met and T'Pol wrapped her arms around Hoshi's head, her hands roaming through the Human's hair. Hoshi's hands kneaded T'Pol's bottom as the Vulcan forced her knees between Hoshi's legs and spread them. Hoshi could feel the heat and the wetness radiating from T'Pol's centre, mixing with her own.
The Vulcan began to move her hips and Hoshi put her feet flat on the bed. She opened herself even more to her mate and thrust her own hips upward. As they touched each other at their intimatest point pure unrestrained lust flashed through both women. They found their rhythm and moved as one.
T'Pol covered Hoshi's face with kisses and gently licked her throat. The young woman threw her head back and presented her throat in an unconscious gesture of submission to her lover. Hoshi's moans became louder; T'Pol breathed heavily now and pressed her face into Hoshi's shoulder.
They forgot time as they melded.
Hoshi could feel her climax building; she increased her movements again and clung to T'Pol. The Vulcan pressed her cheek on Hoshi's and suddenly she felt the other woman's climax rising in her own mind! This pushed her over the edge! T'Pol's body stiffened for a moment and then the orgasm hit her. Waves of pleasure floated through her body! The feeling of the cramping and relaxing muscles in her body made her scream for the first time in her life out of pure lust!
As T'Pol's whole body spasmed Hoshi reached her own climax. From her hot centre the orgasm rushed through her body, she bucked against the Vulcan, their sex's touched again and before her first orgasm was over a second built up and let Hoshi forget everything but her pleasure.
For endless minutes both women gave themselves over to their orgasms.
Finally they lay in the wet sheets. Still on top of Hoshi the Vulcan's chin rested on the Humans shoulder. The rushing of blood was vanishing from her ears; the pain in her head was gone. Slowly T'Pol began to think clearly again, she could remember the last hours only vaguely. But she felt Hoshi's body near hers and she felt their hearts beating simultaneously.
Slowly, T'Pol lifted her head and looked at her mate. She drew the tip of her index finger over the lines of Hoshi's face. She traced the Human's eyebrow down to her temple and put a strand of hair behind Hoshi's ear, she followed Hoshi's cheekbone to her chin and let her finger caress the Human's lips. Hoshi pointed her lips for a moment and kissed T'Pol's fingertip. The Vulcan's eyes sparkled for a moment and the corners of her mouth fluttered just for a second. T'Pol let her finger roam down over Hoshi's chin to her larynx. Then she bent down and kissed the Human softly on the lips.
As they snuggled closer and drifted into sleep they both registered that their hearts still beat in unison.

ASTM to test Annan's QR/disc brake wheel pop-out theory
This was revealed to BikeBiz.co.uk by Matt Wiebe, editor of US trade mag Bicycle Retailer.
Wiebe has been in touch with Scott Boyer, ex of Answer/Manitou, who chairs the ASTM fork subcommittee. Boyer told Wiebe he's aware of Annan's claims and said the ASTM will be developing a simulation exercise in due course.
But Wiebe, who has canvassed the US bike trade, can find no evidence there's a pop-out problem out there.
"No fork manufacturer - Answer, RockShox, Cannondale, Marzocchi or Fox - had any customers that experienced what Annan claims. Nevertheless all fork makers were currently evaluating the issue, as part of their ASTM duties and for their own enlightenment."
But, in the same canvassing, Wiebe found bike builders were familiar with a disc brake related problem with rear wheels.
"Many framebuilders switched to rear-loading horizontal dropouts so they can load the wheel and clear pivots. Originally they had problems with sharp rear disc application keeping rear wheels in frames," Wiebe told BikeBiz.co.uk.
"One product manager said at first they were launching rear wheels out of the frames. So they switched from QR and to bolt-on axles and little pillow blocks to keep the wheels in the frame."
Bike builders reported no similar problems with forks.
"The current situation does not worry fork and bike builders because they have no field reports on the issue," said Wiebe.
"What they wonder is as disc brakes trickle down to inexpensive bikes and those users are less bike savvy will this be a problem?"
A UK supplier of mid to top-end bicycles also told BikeBiz.co.uk he wasn't overly worried by Annan's theory or the "over-blown" coverage to date on BikeBiz.co.uk:
"I feel it's making a mountain out of a mole hill. In any part of the bike, under extreme circumstances, a failure could occur. We have not experienced one example of this QR issue on disc bikes."
But, interestingly, he adds:
"There is an issue with titanium QR's stretching so wheels can become loose. Any person who fails to realise with the design of front forks these days that their QR has become loose and or the skewer has moved round from the position it was when tightened isn't paying attention."

My mojo took a short break last week which meant this medallion took all week to stitch up. I thought the flower faded into the background too much so I used the same blue metallic to backstitch it. I'm still debating backstitching the rest of the flower in gold to continue with the same look from the flowers surrounding the medallion.
I started this medallion Saturday and almost got it finished last night. Hopefully, tonight I'll get it finished. I have flipped this one. The chart shows the flower being on the inside.

I find myself, for the second time in as many posts, thinking about and quoting the movie "Parenthood". This movie is brilliant, as it portrays family life and just plain life in general. Not with an overly complex story line, but with sheer simplicity. After almost the entire movie has played out with its brilliant interweaving of plots involving one extended family, the great-grandma (who is perceived by the other characters throughout the story as being somewhat batty and senile), declares that she loves amusement parks, and in particular, she loves the roller coaster because of all of the incredible highs and lows. She says "some people prefer the merry go round. What's exciting about that?" This, of course, is an amazingly accurate analogy of life and the way that we all choose to live our respective lives.
I am all for buying the ticket for the roller coaster, standing in line to get on, and enjoying the ride - the tingle in the pit of my stomach as the coaster ascends, the breathless fear as it descends in a rush, and the exhilaration as it rushes around corners and sometimes even flies upside down in corkscrews. Life, however is a bit more complex than just choosing between the roller coaster and the merry go round. We have to make choices about the people we invite to take the ride with us. We also have to realize that some people choose to ride the roller coaster when they really should be on the merry go round - and vice versa. Some people are forced to ride the merry go round when they would much rather be on the roller coaster - and vice versa. People end up on the "wrong ride" for all sorts of reasons.
How do we react when we encounter these people? Our reactions, or lack thereof, are what can ultimately determine the quality of our own ride. The thing is.... it's all about the choices that each of us make - not just the choice of which ride to get on, but what to do once we're on the ride. Every roller coaster connoisseur knows that riding in the front car offers a whole different experience than that of riding in the middle or back cars. Even the merry go round has horses that go up and down and horses that remain stable. The other choice we have to make is this - who are we going to invite onto the ride with us? Sometimes even the people we care about the most belong on the other ride - but in the amusement park known as life, we have the ability to ride different rides and meet up at the game arcade after an hour or two.
Probably the worst scenario is when you are on the ride that is perfect for you, but you are stuck dealing with someone who thinks that they are on the right ride when they really are not. If you are someone who loves the roller coaster, you probably don't want the ride to stop midway and get stuck at the bottom of the hill. But.... that's exactly what happens when you are in this scenario. People who are part of our lives who are dragging us down will inevitably keep us at the bottom of the hill. Wouldn't it be great if we could just pitch them over the side? Sometimes we can...... <sigh>..... usually we cannot. When this happens, it is up to us to either allow these people to drag us down or to rise above them. How do we rise above them? By focusing on life at the top of the hill. If you close your eyes, and concentrate, what are your "top of the hill" experiences? Your wedding, the birth of your children or grandchildren - and all of their milestones, that excitement you feel as you line up and process into a concert venue - the feeling of an amazing concert performance when you and the conductor are of one mind and voice, or that feeling of satisfaction and that giddy high following that kind of performance. How about just being with family and friends who elevate your mind and spirit.
Sometimes nature will take its course, and the person or persons who are keeping you at the bottom of the hill will change rides of their own accord. Sometimes they will adapt to the ride they are on. And yes, sometimes the other people on the ride will oust the person from the ride for his or her own good. But in the end, we make choices - and we can choose to allow these people to drag us down - or not. We must always remember that there are people who were meant to be on that roller coaster with us - people who will ride that ride with us to the bitter end, sharing the incredible highs and lows. Focusing on these people can sometimes help us gain clarity to deal with the others - if not clarity, they at least make us feel like the ride is worthwhile taking - no matter where it takes us.
Great Grandma's amusement park musings brought difference reactions from the husband and wife (played amazingly by Steve Martin and Mary Steenburgen). Steve Martin's character goes on and on about what a batty dim-wit Great Grandma is. Mary Steenburgen's character simply says "I think she's a genius." I agree with Mary Steenburgen's character.

Glenton's Scottie hits prime time
Glenton Holidays has launched its first television advertising campaign, with its Scottie dog mascot as the star.
The coach holiday specialist is targeting consumers in the east coast region with its TV debut as it builds on last year's rapid growth in bookings.
Glenton took away record numbers in 2009, with bookings topping 40,000, compared to 30,000 in 2008.
Commercial director Steve Turbill said: "Our competitors are not advertising on TV so we are confident we will grab the attention of new customers in untapped markets with our popular mascot and unbeatable deals."
The 20-second animation shows the Scottie dog mascot, also called Glenton, sniffing out great deals, with coach holidays from £59, cruises from £279 and air holidays from £379.
It first aired on February 9, in shows such as Loose Women, Emmerdale, Midsomer Murders and This Morning.
Viewers in Edinburgh, Fife, Dunfermline, Bathgate and the Lothian area were the first to see the advertising campaign, which will be extended if it proves successful.
Operations director Harriet Stamp added: "Sadly, several Scottish holiday companies have folded over the past year because of the recession.
"However, we cater for mature travellers, who have been less affected by the downturn, and we offer attractive, affordable holidays so Glenton has kept expanding and recruiting new staff."
Glenton's new 2010 brochure includes innovative options such as cruise-and-coach tours plus new holidays to visit the battlefields of France and Belgium and a 'Grand UK Tour'.
The operator also has a dedicated programme for solo travellers called Good Companions, which releases its new brochure later this month.

July 23 2016: The end of the season looms
This is Fishtival Weekend, the community-wide celebration of the fishing season - specifically, the end of the fishing season. But like last year, the fishing season wasn't really over yet. Even though the loss of the equipment meant that we were out of the game for commercial fishing, we were still fishing for homepack, and there were still lots of fish to catch. I just heard a report that this year has ended up as the fourth largest on record. Now, most of those fish didn't come to our districts. I think Egegik and Ugashik got the lion's share of the return. But that's the way it goes sometimes. Still, our total catch ended up pretty solidly in the middle of how we've done over the past 15 years. We dropped Trina and Bruce off at the Fishtival Community Bazaar with the hope that we'd be able to attend in a little while after processing the tide's home pack and making crucial progress in closing up for the season. We'd already stripped and bagged most of the nets, and we'd done a great job washing the Ambi, but there was still plenty more to do. Jeff led the crew in cleaning the New Kid, the brailers, and the slush bags while I sorted out the net locker so it could take delivery of all the things we'd need to store. Everything had to come out of the skiffs for storage - lines, anchors, fairleads, rollers, powerpacks, tool boxes, batteries, fuel cells, five-cans, everything. The winter elements in Naknek are not kind and everything does better if it can be under cover. We knew we needed to ship the Honda outboard south to find someone in the Seattle area who could let us know if there was any hope... and to repair it if possible. But AGS has developed a new policy of not shipping outboards that are just laid on a pallet. Outboards don't fit just right on pallets and the part that sticks off tends to get broken. So we needed to find or build a box to ship it in. Roy found us an outboard pallet that John up at Charlie's Sport Shop in King Salmon had saved. He would give it to us. So it was important to take a trip up there to pick up the pallet and at the same time, drop off the Evinrude 45 that I had earlier broken the mount on. Maybe John could do something about it. When John saw me, he said, "Oh, so you're the lady with the swamped outboard." I was almost surprised he didn't know because all day long, we'd been accepting condolences from people I would have thought had no way of knowing. People all up and down the beach - and on different beaches altogether - seemed to know of our spectacular season finale. We had the chance to talk with Randy at mug-up. He has been running a tender and with a haunted look on his face, he told me that there are still lots and lots of fish out there. I wished we could keep fishing - it's just that with only one skiff and zero rangers, it would be a very very difficult proposition. What if we got ebb fish? Back in the old days, we would each tie a dingy around our waists and drag it out through the mud, then we'd fill up the dingy with 100+ salmon and walk it in over the water as far as we could. Then we'd drag out a line to meet the dingy and pull it up with the truck. We'd do that over and over and over again. But that would be a lot to ask of this valiant crew after the season we've had. So we just continued with our inside site and that one seemed to keep us pretty busy. This was AGS' last tide for picking up fish - and we sold them 1,126 lbs, and that was after we took a bunch for home pack, and on only one site. Randy was right.

Publisher: Margaret K. McElderry Books
Rating: 4.5/5
When fifteen-year-old Clary Fray heads out to the Pandemonium Club in New York City, she hardly expects to witness a murder-much less a murder committed by three teenagers covered with strange tattoos and brandishing bizarre weapons. Then the body disappears into thin air. It's hard to call the police when the murderers are invisible to everyone else and when there is nothing-not even a smear of blood-to show that a boy has died. Or was he a boy?
This is Clary's first meeting with the Shadowhunters, warriors dedicated to ridding the earth of demons. It's also her first encounter with Jace, a Shadowhunter who looks a little like an angel and acts a lot like a jerk. Within twenty-four hours Clary is pulled into Jace's world with a vengeance, when her mother disappears and Clary herself is attacked by a demon. But why would demons be interested in ordinary mundanes like Clary and her mother? And how did Clary suddenly get the Sight? The Shadowhunters would like to know. . . .
Exotic and gritty, exhilarating and utterly gripping, Cassandra Clare's ferociously entertaining fantasy takes readers on a wild ride that they will never want to end.
I've heard many people rave on about Cassandra Clare's book, but for some reason it took me a while to pick it up. Better late than never, right? I absolutely loved this book, I regret not picking it up earlier, everything about this novel just reels you in.
First of, I thoroughly Cassandra's writing style, it was imaginative, vivid, descriptive and totally exciting! I could feel how she had created to two worlds, alongside each other, one normal and the other completely exotic, with Shadowhunters, demons, werewolves and vampires. I also loved how Cassandra created her character's some exploring the notions of evil and some of good. I had a bit of a problem with Clary, I thought she was a bit too whiny, she doesn't think and just rushes into situations. Although, she's a bit naive, but she's also loyal, which is the only thing I liked about her. I loved Jace, he's the sarcastic, macho and totally obnoxious Shadowhunter.
The plot in The City of Bones has so many twists and turn, which kept me turning pages rapidly. Many of those plot twist are foreshadowed in the book, making it ever better. Overall, I loved it, there's a nice balance of action and humor. I completely understand why everyone raves about this series. I can't wait to pick up the next installment.

The term "saturated" refers to Fat Extinguisher the kind of material connection (single or double) between the as well as and hydrogen atoms as well as how many hydrogen atoms are attached to these ties. When it comes to the arrangements of ties around a as well as atom, there is "cis" and "trans." Trans- prefix comes from the Latin importance "across". Cis- prefix also from the Latin importance "on the same part." The images below show a trans configuration on the left (the organic "atoms" are across from each other) and a Cis configuration on the right (the organic "atoms" are on the same part as each other). How are Trans Fat Extinguishers Created? Trans extra Fat Extinguisher are designed with hydrogen bubbles to sebum. This causes the sebum to become and stay powerful at 70 levels, developing them more "user friendly" for the process of getting biscuits, biscuits, doughnuts, and other foods that require long lifestyle span. This process of such as hydrogen to sebum to turn them from a liquid into an outstanding is known as "hydrogenation" and yields "partially hydrogenated oils" which are powerful in reliability. However, a bit of trans Fat Extinguisher are available, mainly in milk items products items, some various foods, and other animal-based foods. Hydrogenation enhances lifestyle span and flavor stability of foods containing trans extra Fat Extinguisher. Most trans extra Fat Extinguisher can be seen in vegetable shortenings, some

Trailing 41-34 in the early minutes of the fourth quarter, the Colonels turned up the intensity with a trapping full-court defense that forced multiple Spalding turnovers.
Free throws by seniors Olivia Schad (Cincinnati) and Paige Kellam (Hebron, Ky.) started the run. A three-point play by junior Cheyenne Bunner (Mars Hill, N.C.) after another steal cut the Spalding lead to a point.
After Spalding rallied to get the lead back to seven points, junior Madison Rice (Knoxville, Tenn.) made a layup, followed by a pilfer and score from Schad. A basket from Kellam brought the lead to one and Rice's free throws put Centre back on top at 53-52.
Spalding's Lelanda Matthews tied the score with a free throw, but Centre had the ball and the final possession. Matthews blocked the attempt by sophomore Kat Wilson (Suwanee, Ga.), but junior Abigail Stewart (LaGrange, Ky.) grabbed the loose ball and splashed a turnaround jumper with nine seconds to go to put Centre in the lead for good. The Golden Eagles' final shot fell into the arms of Stewart as Centre secured its third consecutive victory to open the season.
Stewart led all scorers with 11 points, while Schad added ten points for the Colonels.
Centre forced Spalding into 24 turnovers while committing just ten.
The Golden Eagles held a 44-24 rebounding advantage in the contest.
The Colonels will be back in action on Saturday for their first road game of the season as they take on the Hanover Panthers in Indiana.

How to Read Between Stock Price Volatility Lines25 March 2008 - Features - Editor
Classic technical analysis of a stock market uses years and months as units to time. Electronics and satellites are swords with two edges for stock investors. You are fascinated at first by real time stock price movements. Then you make some gut-wrenching day trading losses. You can learn to handle the stock market like a deck of poker cards. The tricks become easier with regular practice, and you begin to beat the dealer.
Start with time zones. Japan will do tomorrow morning what NYSE has concluded this evening. Hong Kong, Seoul, and Mumbai will follow suit. Only the Fed has more influence on stock price volatility around the world. You can deal with this by operating like a jumbo jet pilot-sleep and work on a 24-hour format.
Every stock that falls steeply will rise again. Not always the full distance, but the stock market tends to exaggerate. Short and long stocks when price movements are excessive. Simply wait for the surf to settle down if you do not have the stomach for derivatives.
Track sovereign wealth funds and private equity. Executives in banks may trade and invest irresponsibly with your cash, but there is no goofing around with a Buffet or a Sheikh presiding over a stack of trading screens. Just do as a stock market Guru.
Take a course in stock trading from the Chicago Board of Trade. These original pork belly champs are astrologers of the stock market galaxy. They talk of grain, animal feed, and such down market stuff. However, you can apply their methods to the most snobbish stocks around.
We are more in to stock investment than day and online stock trading. Please write for us if you are an authority in derivatives. Every member of our community will welcome your expertise in dealing with stock market volatility. All you need, to get started, is to click on the link: Submit an Article
