Cattle futures extended a rally to a record amid shrinking supplies of U.S. beef and increasing demand for the meat as grocers boost purchases before the Christmas holiday.
U.S. commercial beef output in the 10 months through Oct. 31 fell 1.1 percent from the same period in 2011, the government said in a report today. The herd as of July 1 shrank to the smallest since at least 1973. Ranchers culled herds after the worst drought since 1956 eroded crop yields, sending corn, the main ingredient in feed, up as much as 68 percent since mid- June.
Grocers are stocking up on beef, which is often served as part of the Christmas meal, before the Dec. 25 holiday, said Christian Mayer, a market adviser at Northstar Commodity Investments Co. Consumers may pay as much as 6.5 percent more for the meat in 2012, the biggest increase of any food item, the U.S. Department of Agriculture said today.
"The number of cattle is still really tight," Mayer said in a telephone interview from Minneapolis. "People are buying beef. They need to buy it especially for holiday orders," he said, referring to grocer purchases.
Cattle futures for February delivery rose 0.5 percent to $1.323 a pound at 9:50 a.m. on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. Earlier, the price reached $1.32525, a record for the most- active contract.
Beef Production
Commercial beef production totaled 21.69 billion pounds (9.84 million metric tons) in the first 10 months of 2012, compared to 21.92 billion pounds a year earlier, USDA data show. Beef output will drop 4.2 percent next year, the government has forecast.
Meatpackers processed 387,000 cattle in the first three days of this week, down 1.3 percent from a year earlier, USDA data show. On Nov. 21, wholesale beef rose 0.3 percent to $1.9489 a pound, the highest since Oct. 30, USDA data show.
Feeder-cattle futures for January settlement gained 0.1 percent to $1.475 a pound in Chicago.
Hog futures for February settlement increased 0.9 percent to 87.9 cents a pound.

When big money doesn't work switch to more talk for less
Gubernatorial politics have turned retail as spring inches into Wisconsin.
Republican Gov. Scott Walker and Democratic challenger Mary Burke are busy asking for campaign donations, and there appears substantial interest in attracting small donations. The small donors are people who, after they donate $10 or $20, likely will talk positively about their candidate in church basements, bowling alleys, taverns and other places when people gather between now and November.
The small donation also puts you on the candidate's mailing list for the important weeks before the election.
It's a major shift for Republicans. Earlier the Republican Governors Association spent hundreds of thousands of dollars in an advertising campaign to help Walker by criticizing Burke. The latest Marquette University Law School poll showed the GOP ad campaign had little impact.
The poll, taken in late March showed Walker ahead of Burke 48 to 41 percent among likely voters. That's a one-point gain for the governor since the previous poll late last year, but it is in range of polling error. While Walker gained in the head-to-head comparison, his job approval ratings slipped to 47 percent favorable and 47 percent unfavorable.
Democrats took heart in answers about whether the candidates "care about you." Walker had a negative eight percent response, while Burke had a seven percent favorable set of answers.
Some 60 percent said they favored requiring voters to show IDs before casting a ballot. It is one of Walker's key positions. He has said he will call a special legislative session if necessary to achieve the ID requirement. Critics say it is an effort to suppress the vote among the poor and minorities.
The poll showed that 63 percent favor increasing the minimum wage, a position advocated by Burke. Walker denounces the idea of increasing Wisconsin's minimum wage.
Walker won the 2010 gubernatorial race in part by promising the state would add 250,000 private-sector jobs. The Marquette poll shows that 80 percent think Walker won't reach the promised goal. Republicans continue to put an optimistic face on the number of jobs created.
More than four decades ago U.S. Sen. George Aiken, R-Vt., facetiously suggested how to end the Vietnam War. Bring the troops home, march them down Pennsylvania Avenue and declare a victory, he said.
Perhaps Republicans could just declare victory on Walker's job promise.
This year's campaign promise by Walker is that property taxes won't increase in the next four years if he is re-elected.
But the governor may know politics better than his critics think. He has rebuffed questions by reporters about the emails uncovered in a John Doe investigation while he still was Milwaukee County executive. Walker has said that was old news and he was moving on.
The Marquette poll showed that controversial emails have not resonated negatively with voters. Walker has won, at least at this point, the exchange with reporters and editors over what he knew about the emails.
Meanwhile the governor is pursuing his 2016 presidential ambitions. The email controversy has been lost in the national interest regarding New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie's bridge scandal. The public better understands a traffic jam than email correspondence.
Little wonder then that the gubernatorial candidates are lining up small donors to help carry their message to friends. A few dollars can have an impact in different ways.
One of former Gov. Tommy Thompson's favorite political stories was his first primary race for the Assembly in small towns in central Wisconsin. Each day his dad gave him $10 to campaign. Thompson would stop in the taverns to shake hands and might end up buying a drink for the town drunk, he recalled.
The town drunk would spend the rest of the day praising him, Thompson quips.

Flying Sweden [uDG 2011]
Hello all! I'm a new participant in the uDevGames contest, but have followed it for many years. I, along with my artist TK, are hard at work on this year's entry: Flying Sweden. We hope you like it!
About the Game
Take the helm of Sweden, the world's most deadly flying country, and battle for supremacy of the skies!
Flying Sweden combines strategic city building gameplay with fast-paced tower defense combat. Construct and upgrade buildings, gain resources, build larger guns, bolster your defenses and take on the hords of enemies waiting for you in the clouds.
Here are some screenshots:
Lots of buildings!
Sweden fights!
Sweden battles Flying Denmark.
Giant robot battle
Flying Sweden fights Odin in Valhalla
Plenty of things to build!
Flying Sweden is being created in Unity3D Pro 3.4, and will be released on the Mac (of course) and Windows.
The Team
Will Miller (me) - I'm a professional game designer, and have worked in the industry for several years. I have had the pleasure of working on some really great games, including Guitar Hero II, and Civilization IV. I currently work at Big Huge Games, where I am a systems designer on an open-world RPG called Reckoning. I love game jams, and am really excited to be participating in uDevGames this year! Follow @willrmiller on Twitter for updates!
David McDonough I'm also a professional game designer of several years. I started at Firaxis helping to make various Civilization titles before coming to Big Huge to do systems design for our upcoming epic RPG, Reckoning. In addition to the occasional game jam, I dabble as a professor teaching game design at the University of Baltimore.
TK - I'll let TK flesh this one out when he has time, but he's a great artist from Sweden, and I really love working with him. TK works a day job packing massive quantities of fish into boxes, and makes games with me in his spare time.

So will this be a pixel art game? Just curious why you chose Unity 3D if that is the case.

If I were making a tile-based pixel game, I probably would have rolled my own tech. For this game, though, Unity was the best tool for the job. It lets me iterate quickly on gameplay, and easily get new content into the game. I can also deploy to many of different platforms.

Some progress:
Coming up:
Once the game has a working battle mode and win/lose conditions, I'll start posting builds! Until then, here's a development screenshot:
- Prototyping UI elements (_TK_ is working on skins)
- Building selection, placement, upgrading, and repairing
- Very rough numbers pass on buildings - price, population requirements, HP, etc. Won't know how well these numbers work until the battle portion of the game is working. (You can see the spreadsheet for this here, if you're interested)
- Transitions to and from battle mode
Coming up:
- Buildings will have guns. You'll be able to aim them in build mode.
- Battle mode. This week, I'm going to focus on getting battle mode working. Waves of enemies will appear, and you'll be able to shoot them. They will shoot you.
Once the game has a working battle mode and win/lose conditions, I'll start posting builds! Until then, here's a development screenshot:

I think a brief tutorial on how to make Unity work well for a 2D game would be a seriously interesting article.

All too often, art is simply the loss of practicality.

I'd love to do that (or see that done). I'll definitely include what I've learned about making 2D games using Unity in my postmortem.
There are several extensions (purchasable on Unity's Asset Store) which help out quite a bit in this department. The most notable are Sprite Manager 2 and 2D Toolkit (I use 2D Toolkit). Both of these will automatically generate sprite atlases for you, handle sprite animation, and efficiently batch your sprites when rendering. They both also support pixel-perfect sprite drawing from either a perspective or orthographic camera. 2D Toolkit also supports bitmap fonts in several popular formats.
Beyond authoring and drawing the sprites on the screen, you can make a 2D game with Unity in much the same way you'd make any other Unity game. As I mentioned in an earlier post, doing tile-based sprite games would require some extensions to the Unity editor to make map authoring practical, but this is still probably easier than writing an editor from scratch. You could also write a custom asset importer that handles files from Tiled or something similar.

There's also purgatory, the filioque, the assumption of Mary (which is an issue because it is now dogma), the Immaculate conception, supererogatory works, created grace, and so on. They were just starting with the easy ones. ÂÂ
So Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are exactly equal according to you?
Quote from: The Wolf on May 01, 2006, 09:34:57 AMSo Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are exactly equal according to you?All are fully God.
All are fully God.And each is a distinct Person in whom the fullness of Divine Essence dwells.
All are fully God.[/list]
Are you saying they all exactly equal or not?Is (sic) is a simple enough question.
Actually it's not a simple enough question. However I did answer you. They are all fully God. What do you think being God is? I've given you the answer you're getting. Whatever God is they are fully God. If you want an exact exposition on the nature of an ultimately unknowable God then try some scholastic mind puzzles, a la Thomas Aquinas. You make the Holy Spirit the junior member, dependant on the other two. That's fine for you, I suppose.[/list]
As I understand it the Eastern Orthodox Church considers the Son less than the Father.
I've heard the RC doctrine as Mary was assumed into Heaven BEFORE she fell asleep (as in, never did in an earthly format - similar to Elijah or Enoch). The EO view is apparant if you look at an icon of the Dormition.
I know some EO who say the same about the RCC with the Holy Spirit because of the Filioque.  However, this is not true at all.  If Orthodoxy taught that the Son is less than the Father, then the Son could NOT be God.  The Son is fully God.  However, the Son is also eternally begotten from the Father.  Although both Churches teach this, in my experience the RCC does not emphasize this fact to the full degree and generally in the west, IMHO, Trinitarian Theology is not as emphasized.  However, because the Son is eternally begotten from the Father, then the Father is His source.  Yet, one not understand this as a lesser deity because the Son proceeds fully you now have a separate hypostasis of the same essence.  The Orthodox Church theaches the Father as a monarch and the Father of the Trinity, but they are all fully God.  Yet, because the Son is eternally begotton from the Father, the Church also teaches that the Holy Spirit cannot proceed eternally from the Son, for this would subordinate the Son.  Hope this explains the teaching in a nutshell.[/list]
Where did you hear this brother, from an Orthodox or Catholic in a position of authority?
So you are saying if the Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father through the Son the this makes the Son less then the Father?As I understand the matter both the Catholic and Orthodox have the position that the Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father through the Son.Is this incorrect?
mum. Yes, both Churches teach that the Sprit proceeds through the Father, the Orthodox teach that it is temporarily however, not eternally.  For if it is eternally, then the Spirit has two sources (as opposed to the Son)/  Am I that if the Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father through the Son, this makes the Son less than the Father?  No, but I do argue that it misconstrues the relationship of the Trinity, ergo, a misunderstanding of each Person.  The difference is between "from" and "through."  Although I agree with Mother Annastasiya that it is important to feed the hungry and be charitable, I also believe that it is necessary to have right understanding of Orthodoxy.  For to properly understand the Trinity is to properly understand how to worship God.
1) The Son is begotten of the Father non-temporally?
2) The Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father through the Son non-temporally?
3) Both the Catholic and Orthodox Believe this?
We also see the Immaculate Conception dogma making the Theotokos to be the "great exception" rather than the "great example."  The Immaculate Conception really separates Mary from her Jewish faith tradition and makes her out to be something different, which in turn makes her role as mother of the Messiah somewhat separated from this Jewish tradition.  The dogma also makes an exception of the Theotokos--an exception that some Orthodox even consider degrading to her role in our salvation--by implying that God took away from her her freedom to obey her own destiny.  This goes counter to why the Orthodox see in Mary the "great example," for it was the free obedience of the Theotokos that allowed God to form Himself within her womb.
:More or less yes.  The Son is begotten of the Father eternally, before time.  This one is still arguble, theologically.  The Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father eternally, yes.  He does proceed through the Son temporarilly, but not eternally.Depends on who you ask.
No, this is not what I had hoped to communicate.  I am committed to Truth, the fullness of which I find in Orthodoxy alone.  Frankly, our division saddens me, and I long for the day when the RC church and the Orthodox Church will be united again.  I am committed to doing what I can now by the grace of God to bring this about.  However, I do not believe that union can ever come about by us just ignoring our major theological differences and pursuing a union based on lowest-common-denominator relativism and/or the embrace of heresy.  This is really not respectful to either your tradition or mine.
Well why don't you talk about the differences, what they are, and why, and what can be done, instead of being smug sounding that you are so great and the Catholics are all wrong about everything.
What, according to the Eastern Orthodox Churches, are the heresy's of the Catholic Church?
Not necessarily. Being conceived immaculately simply means that Mary was conceived in the same condition as Adam and Eve before the fall. And Adam and Eve obviously had free will.
Don't believe everything you think.
The more I know, the less I know.
Excepting that you have said that one part of the egg is dependant upon the other two parts
Actually, to most Orthodox and traditionalist Catholics, much of what passes for ecumenical dialogue today is indeed an attempt to whitewash our differences.  Now, what makes you qualified to know the working of the Holy Spirit where the Orthodox Church somehow does not?AMEN!Yes, I agree that this is true.  Pharisaism is a very common temptation, and, sadly, I have seen much of it in the Protestantism I left and the Orthodoxy I joined.  I've even succumbed to this temptation at times.Many outside of the Orthodox Church will be saved, and many within the Orthodox Church will be condemned.The one contention with which I disagree, though, is your apparent contention that all polemic debate of theologically divisive issues is automatically uncharitable straining after gnats.  We Orthodox believe--and I'm sure that many traditionalist Catholics believe the same--that one of the most charitable things we can do in dialog with the other side is to preach that our Church is the One Church that Christ established for our salvation and that it is necessary for our salvation to abandon our heresies and be reunited with this One true Church of Christ.  (Your belief that the Church is some mystical body that includes in some invisible way the faithful of the RC Church together with the faithful of the Orthodox Church is consistent with neither traditional Catholic nor Orthodox understanding of the Church.)I'm absolutely certain that apologists on both sides will preach this fundamental teaching with total humility and love, for in so doing they will be obeying the Great Commission to preach what they believe is the very Gospel of Jesus Christ.  When I dialog with a Catholic who seeks to preach that I must become Catholic to enter into the fullness of the Way to salvation, I'm actually filled with joy that he loves me enough to do this, even though I disagree with him and am equally prepared to reciprocate the same preaching to him.  (I actually lived with a Catholic housemate with whom I had this kind of loving friendship.  We each preached to each other the truth of our churches and sometimes fell to the temptation to argue with each other, but we each respected what truth we saw in the other's tradition.)  This is the interfaith dialog that I call true ecumenism.
Thank you Mother Anastasia for being a generous, reasonable, and constructive contributor to this thread. I hope you do not desist now.Peace be with you.
She's done nothing but continuously pass judgment upon every Orthodox poster in this thread, insinuated that she is holier than all others here, and claimed to know the mind of the Holy Spirit.  Is that what passes for "generous, reasonable, and constructive" contributions in Rome's eyes?
I always seem to get this from Orthodox people on the net. Why?
I think we are going off topic here people.The only consistant "heresy" you have come up with is the position of the Bishop of Rome.
I am concerned by some of the things I saw there. The first thing that strikes me is that the site presents an ecumenist belief that both the Eastern and Roman churches departed from traditional Christian faith.
Would you call him schismatic then?
The only consistant "heresy" you have come up with is the position of the Bishop of Rome
WolfOne could argue that purgatory and other doctrines are heretical... personally it doesn't much matter to me. So I'll ask a different question. Are there a certain number of heretical beliefs necessary before things get really serious? Is one heresy ok, while 4 or more means a Church has fallen? If a female friend of yours said to you "Well sure he has cheated on me with that girl for years, but that's only one mistake. It's not like he beats me. He's only made one mistake and admittedly refuses to change. But why would I seperate from him over that?" would you agree with that logic? Is it not really adultery if it's just one other woman/heresy (whether personally or ecclesiastically)? Also, as a general question, are all heresies of the same weight? For example, Theodore the Studite (a pre-schism saint ) called a certain divorce of the emperor, which was allowed by the religious of the time, "heresy"... but did he mean heresy in the same way that someone would call papal supremacy heresy? Maybe there are levels or degrees of heresy, in which case the Orthodox could probably argue for more than half a dozen heresies.
I am married, I'm not Christian, and if my wife cheated on me and wasn't sorry for it, but even continued on cheating, then yes, I would have a hard time forgiving her. Leastwise it'd be very hard to live and have close contact with her while she openly slept with another man. What you are asking is that Orthodox Christians ignore that, from Orthodoxy's perspective, Catholicism is still sleeping around.
What on earth is going on here?I always seem to get this from Orthodox people on the net. Why?
(Imagine me saying this in a rather jocular sort of manner.  )  You come to an Orthodox forum and start a thread asking the Orthodox posters to share with you what they see as the heresies in your RC tradition.  How else would you expect us to respond?  You asked us to be honest, and you got honesty from us.  I would say you got what you asked for. ÂÂ
From the point of view of the Catholics the Orthodox falsely accuse us of being in the wrong when they themselves are in the wrong!

Editors note: Sunshine Week is a national initiative to promote open government and freedom of information. Newspapers around the country highlight this week by looking into the openness and transparency of local government agencies. This year, the week was observed March 10-16. The Durango Herald recognized Sunshine Week by examining several aspects of open government, including meetings, records and court documents.
By Jim Haug
Herald Staff Writer
The potential for sprawl always concerns Durango officials, who dont want to subsidize growth or make taxpayers financially liable for infrastructure improvements as part of any future annexations of a substandard development.
So city staff members were perplexed earlier this year by a county proposal that called for changes to the intergovernmental planning map for areas outside the city limits. They considered the proposal a departure from earlier discussions.
To learn more about the countys thinking, city planners Greg Hoch and Vicki Vandegrift went to the county commissioners work session Jan. 31 with county planning staff members.
After meeting for about an hour and 15 minutes in public, the commissioners voted 3-0 to go into executive session, meeting behind closed doors.
The countys stated reason was for negotiations with the city.
The executive session was not publicized before the meeting. The public notice simply stated that the commissioners would discuss a county/city intergovernmental agreement and community planning areas.
The law requires a public body to state the reason for going into executive session, but the law is less explicit about how much notice or advance warning it should give.
Colorados government-in-the-sunshine law requires full and timely notice of a public bodys meeting agenda. The posting shall include specific agenda information where possible, according to Article 6 of the Colorado Sunshine Law.
So the executive session came as an unwelcome surprise.
There were other citizens in the room who asked, Why are you going into executive session? It was not noticed. So theoretically, you should not be going into executive session. No explanation was provided as to why they were doing this, Hoch recalled.
Craig Adams, a resident who attended, said everybody in the room sort of looked at each other.
He said he was put off that Bobby Lieb, county chairman, hedged about whether commissioners would convene again in open session, advising the public that they probably would not reconvene.
Maybe its not the law in Colorado, but it would have been a courtesy to the public to know whether we should stick around or not, Adams said.
State law, in fact, does not require public bodies to reconvene after an executive session.
Dick Norton, a county resident, said the countys executive sessions are not only poor government, but an anti-learning approach.
I have dealt with government staffs long enough to appreciate the extent to which many people in government choose to treat the public as uninformed, ignorant and simply obstacles to what they perceive to be progress, Norton said.
Colorados open-government law, which is highlighted every March as part of Sunshine Week, is meant to expose the inner working of government as much as possible to give the public confidence in its government, said Michael Beylkin, a lawyer with the firm Levine Sullivan Koch & Schulz, which represents the Colorado Press Association and The Durango Herald.
Beylkin said it always is advisable for an elected body to give as much notice of an executive session as possible because it tells the public that important policy discussions are likely to take place.
But Beylkin said it would be difficult to argue in court that county commissioners did anything wrong.
The county did publicly notice the meeting more than 24 hours in advance. Sheryl Rogers, the attorney for the county, gave notice of the executive session at the beginning of the work session. The topic of the executive session was related to the stated topic of the public notice of the meeting.
The county commissioners also complied with the law at the public meeting by citing the statutory basis for their executive session, announcing the topic in relative detail, and then voting to go into executive session.
Legal or not, Hoch feels it lacks transparency.
In the executive session, they come up with a new strategy and then say (to us), Do this. Its like they say Jump, and Im supposed to say, How high? Hoch said.
I feel I am a persona non grata to some members of the commission generally, Hoch told the City Council and Durango Planning Commission. I ask questions. They generally dont like to be asked questions.
Lieb responded that he didnt know why Hoch feels that way.
Thats his own personal perception, Lieb said. I am concerned that Greg and staff are trying to paint a picture that builds distrust in the councilors toward the county government.
He said elected officials meeting in secret from representatives of another government body is not unusual.
It happens all the time because there are so many intergovernmental contracts, Lieb said. Discussions about how to best position your interests are done confidentially.
As for going into executive session Jan. 31, Lieb said, Everything we did was perfectly legal. Doing so was entirely appropriate.
The whole point was to give direction to staff, Lieb said. Obviously, no decisions were made. We are very careful about that now.
On March 11, county commissioners met publicly to discuss changes to the intergovernmental agreement map, Lieb said.
To get on the same page about planning areas, the City Council wanted to meet with the commissioners this week so the council would have the benefit of outgoing Mayor Doug Lyons institutional knowledge.
Lieb, however, said commissioners thought it would be best to wait to discuss the new map until after the April 2 election of three city councilors.

Tuesday, January 29, 2013 - Niklas and Daniel - FULL CONTACT
Niklas and Daniel - FULL CONTACT
We brought Niklas Serdberg and Daniel Sebesta in for a duo. They are both very good looking guys and great performers so we just knew it would be a good one. We start off with Niklas on his knees, in just his underwear. His hands are running over his body and very soon he pulls his hard cock out and starts stroking it. He is quickly joined by Daniel, also in just his underwear, who stand behind him and begins to massage his shoulders, and rub his chest. Daniel leans over to reach further down Niklas body with his hands. Then Niklas turns his head to meet Daniel's as they kiss. They enjoy a long, lingering kiss before Daniel pulls a huge erection out of his underwear, and moves to the side for Niklas to suck on it. His mouth closes around the cock head and sucks, then he licks up and down the thick shaft beforing getting back to some hot sucking. Daniel then pushes Niklas off his cock and leans down to kiss him again. Niklas lays back on the mattress so that Daniel can suck on his cock a while. As he sucks Niklas' dick he wanks himself and then moves up to kiss some more. Niklas takes both cocks in one hand and wanks them as they kiss. Now Daniel is ready for the next step. He slides his thick cock into Niklas' waiting hole, and begins to slowly fuck it. Niklas moans, softly as Daniels cock slides in and out of his tight hole. He changes position, onto his knees, for Daniel to fuck him some more. We get a great view as Daniel leans back while his cock works Niklas' ass. Moving again Daniel lays on the mattress and Niklas sits down on his cock, and rides it. His ass slides up and down on that thick, throbbing pole, really stretching the hole. Daniel takes over, with some quick, hard fucking before Niklas rides some more. Niklas cock stays rock hard throughtout and his hand takes hold of it, wanking it and shooting a nice big load as Daniel fucks him. Then Daniel pulls out and shoots a massive, creamy load over Niklas chest. Niklas takes the spent cock in his mouth to clean it off, bringing a wonderfully erotic scene to and end.

Our Coming Soon Set Preview
We invited newcomer Ivo Jaternik in for a screentest, and paired him with the lovely Lukas Pribyl. Lukas conducts a brief interview with Ivo who seems very keen to try everything. He leans over and pulls Lukas' head towards him and kisses him. As he kisses Lukas Ivo drops a hand to his groin and begins rubbing himself. Lukas responds, as Ivo gets onto his knees, by kissing and licking his nipples. As they continue kissing and exploring each other's bodies the guys their hands find each other's crotches. Then, with Ivo naked and hard, laying back on the bed, Lukas goes down on that big cock and sucks it. As Lukas gorges himself on that dick Ivo gets onto his knees and leans over to spank some ass. He pulls Lukas off his cock and kisses him, before going down and sucking his cock as well. Lukas lifts his legs in the air to expose his hot little ass, playing with it a bit and then he grabs both cocks and wanks them. Ivo takes over wanking both those cocks and kisses Lukas some more. Then Lukas turns on his side and presents his hot ass for Ivo to slide his big hard cock into. That dick stretches Lukas's hot hole and starts to fuck it. His cock really slams into Lukas' ass. Lukas moves into missionary position so that he can wank himself as he is being fucked. His cock gets rock hard as he wanks and soon he shoots a lovely big load of cum all over himself. Ivo is loving that ass and continues fucking it. He turns Lukas over and really pounds his hole. Pulling out Ivo then squirts his huge load all over Lukas' back. Fully spent, Ivo leans over and kisses Lukas again to end a very good screentest.

We're finally experiencing a thaw in Prague today. The snow has melted off the streets and sidewalks. It will take awhile to melt off of the parks. This has been a very cold spell. There's practically a heat wave outside. The temperature is 3º C or 39º F.
Meanwhile, I've posted my final First Look at our First Wank Party of 2013. Take a look, please. It's a good one.
First in line today is an excellent scene with Niklas Serdberg and Daniel Sebesta. That is followed by Ivo Jaternik's massage, Ondra Rezavy's erotic video and Kamil Jezek's session stills.
We have some very good castees as well today. David Hruska, Karel Lumil, Viktor Baco and Robert Maja. All have their individual merits but my pick for today will be Karel Lumil.

More than one million Americans and about 35 million people worldwide are infected with HIV-1. Despite the introduction of anti- HIV drugs, more research on the mechanisms of HIV-1 pathogenesis and replication is critical for developing safer and more effective treatments for AIDS.
Investigators in UVA's Myles H. Thaler Center for AIDS and Human Retrovirus Research work within a community of infectious disease and immunology experts that ranks among the best in the nation. Here, they address fundamental questions about how AIDS develops and how HIV replicates at the cellular and molecular level.
The Center has faculty associated with the Department of Microbiology, Immunology and Cancer Biology, the Department of Molecular Physiology and Biological Physics and the Division of Infectious Diseases and International Health of the Department of Medicine. This multifaceted approach to HIV-1 and AIDS research creates a highly interactive environment where Thaler Center researchers work towards elucidating the fundamental cellular and pathogenic processes used by HIV-1 and Kaposi's Sarcoma-associated Herpesvirus. Understanding the mechanisms that these viruses use for replication provides essential information for the design of new anti-viral drugs and immune-based therapies. These same studies also generate knowledge with broad implications for cancer, neurological disease, and other realms of medicine. The Center also has collaborative projects with investigators worldwide, including several at African Universities, where research is focused on the global HIV epidemic.

Recruiter Case Study:
A London based recruitment consultant had located the perfect candidate for his client, the Mali office of a German investment bank. However the candidate was a foreign national who needed a Work Permit. They needed a local entity to sponsor the work permit, run the local payroll and make sure the contractor was fully compliant. A colleague referred the agency to www.contractortaxation.com and our local partner was able to step into the breach to arrange a Mali Business Visa before the end of the week and then process the Mali Work Permit with the consultant already onsite for training. This meant the assignment was able to start on time and recruiter went on to place 3 more consultants into the project.

The Dreaded Snowman
Kentucky Wildcats vs. Tennessee Volunteers
Saturday 24 November 2012 | 12:21pm EST
Neyland Stadium (102,455) | Knoxville, TN | SEC Network
If you are a golfer, you know what I'm talking about.
If you are a Tennessee Vols fan, you should know what I'm referring to.
With the embarrassing loss at the hands of Vanderbilt last Saturday, Tennessee (4-7) was dealt another season with 7 losses. The 1977 season, the first under the guidance of Johnny Majors, was the first 7-loss season in the long history of Tennessee Volunteer football. Now, Tennessee has lost 7 games in 5 of the last 8 seasons.
But, Tennessee has never lost as many as 8 games in any season. Never. Ever.
In fact, Tennessee is the ONLY school in the SEC that has NEVER lost as many as 8 games in a single season.
But there is another game left: against Kentucky this Saturday in Knoxville.
And that means that Tennessee, with a loss to their Border State Rival, would have this distinction wiped away: The Vols would no longer be the only SEC school that has never lost at least 8 games in a season.
There are usually many things at stake when Tennessee plays Kentucky. Sometimes it is a shot at an SEC Championship, and possibly a National Championship. Sometimes it is a shot at a BCS bowl game, or sometimes just any bowl game.
And sometimes it is just the pride, especially that of the seniors. And that is where the Vols are this season.
But the thought that we could lose 8 games this season — and lose 8 games in any season — is unfathomable. History tells us so.
Let's hope that it doesn't happen this season. Or any season.
It has been a historic week for the VolNation.
Coach Derek Dooley was fired. And because Dooley chose not to coach the last game of the season (thereby making it impossible for him to be the only coach to lead the Vols to an 8-loss season), Offensive Coordinator Jim Chaney becomes the only interim head coach in the history of Tennessee football (to replace a fired head coach). Chaney will be on the sideline on Saturday instead of in his customary booth location.
Other news saw UT Chancellor Jimmy Cheek announce that the University will endow the Athletics Department with $18 million (over three years) to add needed financial stability due to the impending coaching buyouts and hirings. This is huge news in the sense that it establishes the commitment from the top rung of the University necessary to enhance the odds that Vols football does not slip into the abyss of mediocrity and irrelevancy.
The source of the money is that previously donated by the Athletics Department to the University for academic scholarships and other academic endowments. AD Dave Hart most assuredly made the argument to the Chancellor and others that borrowing back the money previously donated will be paid back in spades once winning is reestablished by the football program — the revenue-producing machine of the University of Tennessee.
Could Dave Hart's predecessor have negotiated such a deal with his bosses?
And in the coaching search odyssey, media outlets in Fayetteville indicate that Arkansas offered their vacant head coaching position to Jon Gruden, and Mr. Gruden declined, opening the door perhaps wider to the possibility of the former Vols graduate assistant football coach to assume Tennessee's vacancy. There are no traditional media outlets reporting that Tennessee has offered the job to Gruden. But it wouldn't surprise this writer to find out that such an offer has been made. Gruden would be a qualified replacement. And, it would be prudent for Dave Hart to make sure that the reason Gruden does not come to Knoxville to coach the Vols is that Gruden turned down an offer, and not because no offer was made.
Gruden not coming because of the lack of an offer would not be acceptable to the majority of the VolNation who assuredly want Gruden as their man. And more importantly it would set up a situation of incredible, and unfair, pressure on the new head coach and his staff to succeed and succeed quickly. The howls from the fan base would not stop until a December win in the Georgia Dome.
So, what about Saturday?
For starters, Kentucky (2-9) is a dreadful football team.
In between their lone two wins — against Kent State on September 8 and Samford on November 17 — the Wildcats lost eight straight games and fired their head coach, Joker Phillips.
Kentucky ranks among the bottom feeders of the 125 FBS schools in many offensive categories: 111th in passing yards; 94th in rushing yards; 119th in points scored; 115th in total offense.
But the Vols defense eventually caved against a nearly equally anemic Missouri offense a couple of weeks ago.
And given the complete upheaval of the Volunteer football program at the moment, anything could happen on Saturday. Anything.
Except of course Tennessee losing its distinction as the only SEC school to have never lost at least 8 games in a single season.

Go Vols!

tk says :
well you are certainly correct with your statement that ANYTHING can happen tomorrow. i for one am going to witness what the ANYTHING is. probably me and about 45 to 50,000 others……but thats another television show. anyway i think the vols can finally pull one out, but i dont think they can do it by much. everyone keep your orange fingers crossed!!! TENNESSEE 36-KENTUCKY 28
Sandy says :
OK… I'm on the bandwagon. Pressure of coaching uncertainty is removed. A looser Vol team resumes the Kentucky dominance with a 42-17 victory!
Now on to finding the right coach to bring the Big Orange back to where it is supposed to be.
Billy says :
I didn't think that Dooley was a bad coach, but you don't lose to Vanderbilt 45 to 18, or whatever it was. This shouldn't be a tough game though, even with the assistant coach filling in. I just can't see Tennessee losing to Kentucky…
Tennessee 23

The first wave of neural network trading applications formed during the 1990s, and then crested and crashed as the Internet stock bubble burst. Neural network applications in trading research really dropped during the first half of the 2000s. Few good research papers were published during this period. Even today, the tools remain relatively out of favor, with the exception being support vector machine algorithms vs. the back-propagation and radial-net that were popular during the first wave.
The early approach was to train models over static sets of data and out-of-sample periods. In addition, many of the early neural network models were adapted from time series forecasting methods or classic signal processing, and did not draw on deep domain knowledge of financial markets. Because so many models were developed, some of the models had to seem like they worked just due to chance.
Problems & enablers
Developers of market models face two related problems:
- Many data series are not stationary, lacking a constant mean. A requirement for stationarity needs to be addressed with preprocessing.
- Regime change. A set of model inputs works for one regime but not another, so a system or set of inputs might work for six months to a year or more and then fail.
Statistical procedures such as the Augmented Dickey Fuller and Phillips Perron tests can detect if a time series is stationary. If we know a time series is not stationary, we can try to make it so through preprocessing. Methods include taking first and second differences of the time series. In addition, current development can use walk-forward technology to see if model stability is retained on different data sets and represents stable relationships.
Today, sponsors of predictive model development recognize how important domain expertise is and how neural nets are better utilized as only part of the solution.
Here, we will demonstrate this approach by first providing an overview of a classic time series forecasting method, Box-Jenkins, for historical perspective. We will then reuse some of the concepts when we implement our final neural network models. Along the way, we will find that identical terms are used differently in trading and forecasting. To minimize confusion, these terms will be identified.
