Curiosity Satisfied? — Curiousity was one thing –finding out was another.
I sunk down lower into the bath, letting the warm water swirl over my face. I sat back up, wiping the water away from my face with my hands. I let out a contented sigh and leant back against the end of the bath, my eyes closed. Seconds later they were open again, watching as he came back into the bathroom, two bottles of beer in his hand.
I looked at him, at his cock. It was hanging heavily, its thickness and his firm balls pushing it away from his body. I grinned up at him as memories of the last few hours came flooding back. He sat on the edge of the bath.
"You okay?" he asked as he handed me a beer.
I smiled up at him, taking the cold bottle from him, my hand over his for a few fleeting seconds.
"Great," I told him, "Just great."
I sank a little lower into the water again, and sipped at my beer. As I closed my eyes, I felt his hand on my cock, caressing me under the water. His hand reached for my balls, cradling them in his hand for a minute before stroking along my steadily thickening shaft again.
As he stroked me, intense feelings of pleasure washed through me. It felt so new to have another man's hands on my body, on my cock. But it felt so good, so right.
My cock was hard now, sticking up out of the water as he stroked me. Without taking his hand off my cock, he turned on the edge of the bath so that one foot was in the water on the far side of me. I moved my leg to make room for him. He was now sat almost across the bath. I sat up a little, my eyes now open as I watched his hand moving up and down my cock, as I put the bottle on the side of the bath and reached for him.
His cock was hot in my hand. Hot and hard, the blood throbbing through his shaft as I held him, as I stroked slowly along his length. We quickly built up a rhythm, wanking each other slowly, and then building up speed as we both moaned out loud. Water was splashing everywhere as he wanked me, his hand just a blur as it sped up and down my shaft.
I could feel the cum building in me, ready to erupt. As I reached for his balls, his cock seemed even harder, hotter, in my hand. His balls tightened, and then he cried out, his cock and balls shuddering in my hands as his cum gushed from him, splashing onto me and into the water.
Even as he threw his head back as pleasure washed through him his hand was bringing me to an intense climax, my cum spurting over his hand, onto him, and into the water. He never stopped stroking me as the pleasure tore through me, as it reached every corner of my body, his hands far more experienced at this than mine.
I slumped back against the end of the bath again, grinning up at him as he slipped into the bath opposite me. We both reached for our beers, oblivious to the thick cum splashed on our bodies and floating on the surface of the still warm water. I held my bottle up in a silent toast to my new lover, and then closed my eyes again, thinking back over the last few days, to how it had started.
It had all started two days ago, on Tuesday. No, actually it really started a few years ago, when I started to be curious about sex with another man.
Although happily – and faithfully – married for ten years to a wonderful wife, with two great kids, I couldn't drag my mind away from the thought of touching, of tasting, another cock. I tried to put it all to the back of my mind, to forget it, but increasingly that had become harder and harder, especially over the last year or so. It wasn't as if I was attracted to any particular man, I wasn't. But I did want to explore, to find out more about myself, to satisfy my curiosity.
Over the last twelve months, as these feelings had intensified, I had started to think seriously about how I could make it happen, how I could take that final step. But then, as is so often the case, it just happened.
I work as a senior IT Manager for a reasonably sized company. I love the work I do, and have got a good team around me. One of the problems of being in IT is that people always want you to sort out the problems they've got with their home computers. So, when Sean, a senior manager in another department, collared me in the corridor one day, I wasn't really surprised.
From what he said, it sounded like a virus or something. As he only lives around the corner from the office, I said that I'd ask one of my team to go home with him one lunchtime to sort it out. I told him that they'd be happy to do it in return for a couple of bottles of wine. Normally, this did the trick, but for some reason Sean hesitated, and looked very embarrassed.
"Couldn't you do it?" he asked.
As I looked at him, he continued.
"It's just that I've been on some websites and they leave traces behind, don't they? And I've downloaded some stuff that I'd prefer others didn't see. It's just that we've known each other a long time, and I know I can trust you...."
Although this all came out in a torrent of words, it was clear that Sean had thought carefully about this, about what he wanted to say. And then it clicked. It was well known that Sean was gay - after all, he'd never made a secret of the fact. I assumed this was why he was so conscious of the websites he'd visited, and the sorts of downloads he might have made.
As these thoughts rushed through my mind, I suddenly realised how much I had been thinking about Sean recently, how much I had begun to enjoy seeing him around the office - and how dry my mouth had suddenly become.
"No problem," I told him, trying desperately to moisten my throat. "How about Thursday? After work?"
My wife always takes the kids to see her Mum on a Thursday.
"That's great," he told me gratefully, "I'll get the beers in."
As he turned and walked away, I suddenly realised how hard my cock was, and how it was throbbing painfully in the confines of the jeans I habitually wear to work. I could feel my face blushing furiously as I watched Sean disappearing, my eyes glued to his ass in his tight trousers, as I wondered if he'd noticed, if he'd seen my reaction.
I stumbled back to my office and shut the door. It didn't lock, so I leant back against it as I unbuttoned my jeans and pulled my cock out. I shuddered as I stroked along my shaft, feeling the heat, the blood rushing to the tip. It felt longer, harder, thicker than I'd been in ages. The head was already wet with pre cum as I slowly pulled the skin back. I sighed as I pulled it back tight, loving the sensations rippling through me, loving the way my balls were tightening.
I had only meant to make myself more comfortable, but within seconds my hand was a blur as I stroked up and down my shaft faster and faster. I bit my lip to stifle my groans as my orgasm got closer, as visions of Sean filled my head. My mind ran riot, imagining his cock, his balls, his ass. I threw my head back as my cum erupted from my cock, as the intense pleasure of my release tore through my body almost painfully, as jet after jet of thick cum splashed into my other hand.
I stood, gasping for breath, looking down at the puddle of cum in my hand. Tentatively, without really thinking about it, I brought my hand up to my mouth and dipped my tongue into the sticky puddle. It tasted good, but before I could go any further I jumped as I heard voices outside my office.
I quickly found a tissue and wiped my hand, pushing my cock back into my jeans as I threw myself into the chair behind my desk. I sat still, my heart pounding, but no one came in. I leant my head against the back of the chair and shut my eyes. I hadn't wanked like that in ages, and never at work. But the urge, the need, had been so intense, so over whelming.
I thought about Sean again. I actually know him quite well, having started at the company at about the same time. Again, I thought about how much I'd been thinking about Sean in recent months, how I'd started to see him differently. The realisation hit me like a ton of bricks – I wanted him!
Thinking back, I wasn't sure if the next two days passed very quickly, or extremely slowly. What I do know is that by the time Thursday evening came, I was a nervous wreck. I couldn't think straight, my heart was pounding, and my mouth was dry. I'd arrived back at work after lunch determined to cancel our meeting, scared of what might happen, but deep down wanting something to happen, hoping that it would.
But I didn't contact Sean, and at a little after six o'clock I found myself standing at his door. As I pressed the door bell, I suddenly felt calm and relaxed. I think I knew what I wanted, but all the doubts, the uncertainties, nagged at the back of my mind. After all, I told myself, it takes two, and Sean has never shown any sign of seeing me other than as a mate. As swiftly as it had arrived, the sense of calmness deserted me, and the nervousness returned. I was about to flee, when the door opened.
Sean welcomed me with his usual grin, and ushered me indoors. I followed him through to the lounge, where he pointed at the computer in the corner. I switched it on while Sean went off to find us some beers. While the computer wound itself up, I rummaged through the bag I'd brought with me for the discs I would need. When he got back, I was sat staring at the screen.
His "wallpaper" on the computer was a picture of a cock. A long, hard, beautiful cock. There were only a few icons on the screen, so nothing got in the way of the picture.
It started on the left, and stretched almost the whole width of the screen. On the left, towards the top of the screen, was the base of his belly, hard and flat, the slight pit of his navel clearly visible, his skin tanned and glossy. Below that was a mass of short, dark hair, thick and curly. At the bottom of the screen were his balls, big and firm, just begging to be cradled in my hand.
And in between was his cock.
I licked my lips as my eyes followed the length of the cock across the screen. Although it was only a picture, it seemed to be alive – alive and throbbing. It sprung out from the tight, curly hair at the base of his belly, the shaft thick and strong above his balls. There was a thick vein running along the length of it, and I could swear that I could see the blood pumping along the length of his shaft, feeding his erection.
The shaft was thick, and I could almost reach out and touch it, to feel the heat coming from him. Towards the end, it curved slightly upwards, giving it a powerful, almost arrogant, look. The skin was peeled back from the head, leaving it red, shiny and exposed. There was a drop of clear, shiny pre cum clinging to the tip. I could almost taste it, wanted to taste it.
With a start I realised that Sean was stood behind me. I've got no idea how long he'd been stood there, or whether he had seen my reaction to the screen – either on my face or by the bulge in my jeans. I grabbed the nearest disc to me, and fed it into the computer, praying for the programme to start up quickly.
As I worked at the computer, I was conscious of Sean watching me, maybe watching my reaction to the picture that appeared every time I closed a programme. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't stop myself from looking, from wondering what it would be like to touch, to taste that cock. My own cock was a throbbing bulge in my jeans. I desperately wanted to touch myself, to release the sexual tension building up.
Eventually, I was finished. It was just a virus, which was easily cleaned. I put some software on to stop it happening again, and then told Sean I was finished. As I spoke, he came across and stood behind me. I was aware of how close he was to me, of his after shave, of my bulging cock. He leant over and reached for the mouse, clicking through a few programmes he said had been playing up.
He did it slowly, each time returning to the picture of the cock. My eyes were glued to the screen, my mouth dry again despite the beer I'd been sipping at. When he was finished, he stood up behind me. Seconds later, I felt his hands on the back of the chair, and then he was spinning me around to face him. I looked up at him, opening my mouth to speak, but no words came. I couldn't help myself as my eyes dropped towards his jeans, to the bulge of his cock.
As I stared at him at the growing bulge, he dropped to his knees in front of me, his eyes looking into mine, before dropping down towards my cock. My breath caught in my throat as he silently reached forward and popped open the top button of my jeans. He lifted his eyes to meet mine as he deftly undid the rest, and pulled my jeans open.
His eyes dropped back towards my cock. I looked down as well. My cock was reaching upwards, trying to escape from my boxers. There was a huge wet spot where I'd been leaking pre cum. Sean's hands were resting on my thighs, still holding the edges of my jeans where he'd pulled them open. He looked up at me as he spoke, his voice suddenly husky with desire.
"This has to work for both of us," he told me.
I knew exactly what he meant. I nodded, not daring to speak, and then gasped as he reached over and squeezed my cock through my shorts.
I thought I would cum there and then, but somehow I controlled myself. I felt like I was hardly breathing as Sean moved his hand again, reaching out to ease the front of my boxers down, and away from my cock. I sprung free, my rock hard cock waving about in front of me. This time Sean gasped as he saw the length, the thickness, of my cock.
He slid both hands into the waist band of my shorts, and then moved them easily around to my hips. His hands felt surprisingly soft as they moved over my skin, over my trembling body. I shuddered as he began to ease my boxers and jeans down my thighs. I lifted my ass off the chair to help him, my cock waving about inches from his face as he stripped me.
His eyes moved between my cock and my face as he left me naked from the waist down. For a few seconds he sat back on his heels, his hands back on my thighs, his eyes on my cock. He leant forward, and I held my breath as he moved closer to my cock. His hands moved along my thighs, under my tee shirt and onto my belly. He leant forward, his hands sliding up onto my chest, his mouth hovering over my cock as it stood erect from my body.
I groaned with the tension, my need, as he looked up at me again. I slid my ass forwards on the chair. I was almost lying down, the muscles of my stomach and thighs tense as his eyes locked on mine. Still watching me, Sean dropped his mouth onto my naked, twitching cock.
I cried out as his lips slid slowly down my shaft, as he sucked me into his warm, wet mouth. His lips felt dry, almost rough, as they slipped down my shaft, as he scratched lightly over my nipples. He lifted his head away from me, leaving my cock wet and needing more. He slipped his hands back out of my shirt, and with a nod told me to take it off. I pulled it off, and then lay back in the chair again, naked.
Sean rested his hands on my thighs for a moment, teasing me, teasing us. He reached for my cock, and I felt his hands on me for the first time. He squeezed my hard, throbbing shaft lightly, before running his hand up and down my length. His other hand reached for my balls, cradling them in his hand. And then his lips, his mouth, his tongue, were on me again, sucking and licking me, tasting me.
The feelings surging through me were amazing.
His lips were sliding up and down my cock, his tongue swirling around my cock head as he sucked me deeper into his mouth. I eased my knees up, and my legs apart, as his fingers slid under my balls towards my ass. Sean moved easily with me as my hips jerked off the chair, as I drove my cock into his mouth, as I fucked him. He fingered my ass, his other hand moving along the base of my shaft in time to the sucking of his mouth, the jerking of my hips.
I was holding on tight to the edges of the chair, my head flung back, the muscles in my thighs and stomach rigid as wave after wave of pleasure tore through me. My cock felt solid, bigger and harder than I'd ever been. My balls felt like they could explode as feelings as intense as any I'd ever felt before flooded my mind and body.
My cock was deep in Sean's mouth now, his lips and tongue and hands tormenting me with pleasure. When I came, my cock and balls jerked as jet after jet of cum shot deep into his mouth. He sucked hard, drinking down the first five or six spurts of my thick, creamy cum before pulling away. I watched through half closed eyes as he wanked my cock, pumping the last of my cum into the air. It splashed back down, dribbling over my cock and his hand, splattering onto my belly.
I watched as he lifted his hand away from my wet cock and slowly licked his hand. I reached out and touched the back of his head as he dropped his mouth back over my softening cock and licked and sucked me, enjoying the last of my juices. Eventually he sat back on his heels, his hand still on my cock.
"That was fantastic, " I told him, my voice husky, "Thank you."
"My pleasure," he laughed, "I've wanted to do that for a long time."
I stared at Sean, taking in what he had just said. I only half heard what he said next, before responding automatically.
"You've got a great cock," he told me, stroking me gently.
"So have you," I responded.
"But you haven't ......"
And then he saw me glancing across at the picture on the computer screen again.
"Oh – you think that's me?" he laughed, "Well, there's only one way you'll find out," he added as he stood up.
It all sounded so corny, but a few seconds later it was me who was kneeling in front of him, reaching for his jeans.
Strangely, as I knelt in front of him, naked, with Sean fully clothed and looking down at me, I felt powerful, and totally in control. My cock was resting on my thighs, and as I popped open the top button of his jeans, I felt it start to rise again as a surge of excitement, of anticipation, filled my mind and body. By the time I'd eased his zip down and pulled the two sides of his jeans apart, and was staring dry mouthed at the hard outline of his cock, I was fully erect again.
I glanced up at Sean, who was starting to undo his shirt. He shrugged it off, and dropped it on the floor beside me. I looked up at him, taking in his powerful chest and muscular body, the curly hair across his chest and stomach. I knew then that the picture on the computer wasn't him, but it didn't matter, nothing mattered but the next few moments.
Sensing my uncertainty, Sean did nothing, said nothing. I stared at his cock, watching as it twitched beneath his underwear. I was still holding his jeans apart, but was slowly, without thinking, easing them down his thighs. Tentatively, I reached over, hesitated again, and then ran my hand along the outline of his thick shaft. We both moaned as I felt a hard cock in my hand for the first time. Sean shuddered at my touch, his cock seeming to press back against me in its eagerness to escape the confines of his clothes.
I dragged his underwear down and his cock sprang free, standing out from his body, long and hard, inches from my face. I dipped my head quickly, and for the first time felt a cock against my lips. I opened my mouth tentatively and flicked my tongue across the tip of Sean's cock, tasting him, feeling him. By now, his jeans were around his ankles, and he pulled away for second to kick them off. Then he was naked in front of me.
Instinctively, I reached out to him. His cock felt hot in hand - hard, hot and incredible. I watched closely as my hand moved along his shaft, peeling his skin back. I wanked him slowly, almost mesmerised by the beads of pre cum appearing, from his soft moans. I moved again, licking the tip of his cock carefully, swirling my tongue around the tip, savouring the taste of his first juices. I eased him sideways, looking at his long, slightly curved shaft in profile, licking along his thick length.
I slid my hands across his thighs, over his hips, and around onto his firm ass. I cupped his cheeks in my hands, pulling him towards me. I moved my head, and the tip of his cock slipped further past my lips. I sucked hard, and took half his hard length into my mouth.
He seemed to fill my mouth completely. I sucked on him, feeling his hips rocking as he started to fuck me. I quickly got used to his movement, to him being in my mouth, to the sheer size of him. I sucked harder, pulling him to me, wanting him to fuck my mouth harder. I wasn't sure how I had imagined this would be in my past day dreaming, but the real thing was undoubtedly better, much better.
Sean's cries echoed around the room, his cock throbbing between my lips as his orgasm approached. I could feel his ass clenching as he fucked me, and then with a roar he came. The first jet of his salty tasting cum thumped against the back of my throat. I gagged and swallowed, Sean holding me tight now as his cum gushed into my mouth, as I drank as much of it down as I could.
After what was probably only a few moments he pulled away. I grabbed his cock, and jerked it back and forth, his cum pouring out on to my hand and chest. My own cock was painfully hard. Sean leant down and grabbed me. He was pulling on me for only seconds before my cum was spurting out of me in an arc to splatter against his belly.
He dropped to his knees in front of me. We were still holding each others cocks, both of us gasping for breath. I knew he was about to kiss me, but I didn't mind. It wasn't something I'd thought about doing, but it felt so good, so right, as his lips met mine and we shared the taste of my cum. Sean pushed me back a little, and licked our sticky cum from my body. I did the same the same for him, never letting go of his cock. We kissed again, tasting each other.
With a grin, Sean reached out and passed me my beer. He stood up, and pulled me to my feet. Picking up his beer, he led me up to his bedroom. I followed him upstairs, my eyes locked on his ass, wondering about the next few minutes, the next few hours. We relaxed on his bed, chatting easily as we drank from the bottles of beer, totally at ease with each other, with our nakedness.
I reached for him first, eager to touch him again, eager to feel his hardness in my hand, in my mouth. This time I took my time, caressing his cock and balls, weighing them in my hand, feeling and licking my way around every ridge, every contour of him.
Sean eased himself back onto the bed, his hands behind his head. From where I was, knelt between his outstretched legs, my hands resting on his thighs, I cast my eyes over his strong body, taking in the contours of the muscles across his chest and belly, along his arms and legs. My eyes stopped at his cock, which was lying at an angle up onto his belly, his balls full and heavy beneath. Slowly, he drew his knees, my hands sliding down his legs as he exposed more of himself to me.
I took his cock in my hand again, feeling the blood coursing through him as he became harder at my touch. I ran my hand along his shaft, and then down onto his balls. Leaning forward, I took his cock back into my mouth, running my tongue around the head and then down his shaft as I sucked him in deeper.
I rested his cock on his hard belly and licked slowly down his shaft, leaving it wet and glistening as I moved onto his balls. He had shaved them, leaving them smooth for me as I licked across them before sucking one, and then the other, into my mouth. They felt firm in my mouth as I sucked them gently, as soft moans of pleasure escaped both our lips.
Tentatively, I moved lower, running my tongue below his balls and towards his ass. Sean's hips lifted off the bed as I poked at his ass, as he groaned at my touch. I ran my tongue as deep as I could, tasting him as he moved his hips against me. Glancing up, I watched as he stroked his own cock, wanking slowly as my tongue penetrated him.
Sean dropped his hips back onto the bed, and reached to pull me up to him. We kissed again, our cocks touching. As our lips met, he reached down and squeezed our cock's together, sending shockwaves of pleasure through me. But that was forgotten as he pushed me gently backwards onto the bed. I knew what he wanted, what I wanted, and lay down on my front, my ass raised slightly into the position I imagined he wanted me to be in.
I felt Sean's weight as he moved above me. I shuddered as I felt his cock dragging across my leg and ass. I realised that I could see him in the mirror in front of me. He seemed to tower over me as he moved his cock until it was resting along the tight crevice between my cheeks. As he pressed down, I felt the strength of his cock against me, his chest against my back. I eased my legs further apart, feeling his cock harder against me as he moved slowly, rocking his body to slide his cock between my cheeks.
I moaned and shuddered as my body relaxed, as I got used to Sean being above me. Waves of pleasure washed through me as I felt his cock head running across my puckered hole, every part of me wanting him to go further. I looked up at the mirror again as I felt his weight lift off me. He was kneeling between my legs, his cock looking enormous as he leant over and picked up a tube of lubricant from a table beside the bed.
My heart was thumping as I watched him smoothing some of the lubricant over his cock. He slid his hand up and down his shaft, his eyes on mine in the mirror. I saw him looking down at my exposed ass, and then I felt his hands on me, pressing down on my cheeks, caressing me. His hands felt cold, but then hot as he traced a finger down between my cheeks, stopping at my tight hole.
I gasped as the tip of his finger entered me. Even that felt huge as he pushed it slowly into my ass, fucking me slowly, gently. A second finger followed as he opened me up for what was to follow. After a minute or two, his hands were gone, and I felt the tip of his cock against me. He moved back over me, his cock pressing against me. Through the haze of pleasure, of anticipation, that surrounded me, I heard him telling me to relax, his mouth close to my ear.
Sean pressed down, and seconds later I had a cock inside me for the first time. As his cock head stretched and then entered me, followed swiftly by the first inch or two of his hard cock, I cried out as a wave of pain tore through me. Sean held still, his cock inside me, and as quickly as it came, the pain was gone, replaced by a numbness, and then an amazingly deep sense of pleasure. Only then, as I moaned softly, did Sean press down again.
I groaned as Sean eased his thick cock deeper inside my body. As each extra inch of him entered me, the pleasure I was feeling seemed to reach further, until his cock was buried inside me and I was tingling all over. Sean held still again as I got used to him, to the thickness, the length, the strength of his cock. And then he began to fuck me.
He started slowly, but then drove his cock into me harder and faster, his balls slapping against mine. It felt as though I was being pounded into the bed as I gripped the edge of the mattress, as each thrust of his cock magnified the pleasure I was feeling. We both cried out when he eventually came, as his cum erupted inside my ass.
I felt Sean's full weight on top of me as he slumped forward, his throbbing cock still buried deep inside me, his breathing harsh in my ear. As each jet of his cum pumped into my ass, a wave of pleasure shot through me. My own cock was hard, painfully hard, beneath us. I tried to lift my body a little, and slide my hand down to my cock, needing release.
"No," Sean gasped, as he realised what I was trying to do.
He lifted himself away from me and rolled me onto my back. As he lay down beside me, I automatically reached for his cock, still slick from me, from his cum, from the lubricant. He held my cock and kissed me gently, his lips warm against mine, his tongue insistent for the first time. Gradually, my overwhelming need to cum subsided, only to be replaced with a growing need for Sean.
As soon as Sean rolled onto his front, and then pulled himself up onto all fours, I reached for the tube of lubricant. Sean watched me closely, telling me to take my time, as I followed his earlier lead and rubbed the cold gel all over my cock.
I shuffled across the bed on my knees, my rock hard cock waving in front of me. Sean moved his hips and ass, encouraging me towards him. I moved closer, my cock touching his ass for the first time. He felt hot against me, and just as eager as I was. Sean moved back against me, guiding me towards my goal. He angled his hips towards me as I raised myself a little off the bed. Leaning forward, I pressed my cock against his ass.
As Sean relaxed and moved with me, my cock slipped inside his body. I gasped as his warm flesh wrapped itself around my cock, just the tip at first, but then more as he sucked me into his body. I groaned as my cock slid easily into him, until all of me was buried in his ass, his tight flesh holding me. I leant down hard, determined to hold all of my cock inside him. I thought that I would cum there and then, as he throbbed around me. Slowly, that feeling subsided and I began to fuck him.
I fucked him slowly at first, feeling him around me as I eased my cock almost out of him, and then back again until my balls rested against him. I gradually speeded up, fucking him harder and faster as he guided me, as he moved his hips and ass to encourage me. As I fucked him, Sean dropped onto the bed, with me lying on top of him. Awhile later, I felt him pushing back, and we rolled onto our sides, my cock still buried inside him.
As I continued to fuck him, I reached around him and grabbed his cock. He was hard again, his powers of recovery amazing. I wanked his cock while I fucked his ass, my cock, my hips, my hand, moving as one, moving in a rhythm that had us both cumming in no time.
I cried out as my cum erupted from my cock. Sean pushed back against me as I drove in hard, sending the first jets of my cum deep into his body. Then I moved again, pumping my cum into him in warm, thick jets. As I came, Sean cried out. I wanked his cock harder, feeling the cum bursting through his cock and spaying onto the bed.
We didn't move as we laughed at our release. I lay close to Sean, my cock still inside his ass, my arm still around him, his cock still warm in my hand. We didn't speak for a minute or two, and then Sean suggested a bath.
"A penny for them."
Sean words brought me back from my day dreaming. I grinned at him.
"I was just thinking about tonight," I told him.
"Good thoughts I hope," he told me, before adding, "No regrets?"

Remember this old door from yesterday? I nabbed this out of a friends trash pile!I gave it a light coat of white paint. I didn't want to fully cover the old wood and rustic look so one coat did the job. Then I grabbed my dark gray paint that I painted our master bath in and just lightly distressed the whole door to give a little bit of pop and a cleaner rustic look!
We attached it to the wall with big hinges and a few screws. I am so thankful for a hubby who loves to help me with my crazy diy projects. He texted our friend afterwards and said, "one man's junk is another woman's treasure!" Isn't that the truth! Dragging this old door on 3 moves has proven so worth it!
Just makes me want to chill in our room all day. I am still on the hunt for a few mint green accents and, of course, pillows! Hop back over tomorrow and check out our $6 dresser for the girls room.

Croatia's tourism industry thriving
Croatia is anticipating yet another super year for its tourism industry despite of losing non-European tourists since they have joined the European Union. While speaking to a leading daily, Croatian tourist board director Meri Matesic told that it would be quite easier for people from the EU. They would not require passports anymore and with this Croatia would effectively become a domestic market for half a billion people.
But European Union membership means that they have to pose visa regime on countries like Turkey that may become an unwelcome change for the increasing number of tourists in their country. A tourist from Turkry told a news paper that he had to wait more than a week to get a visa for a week holiday and that made him very angry.
Ercan Abitagaoglu, an employee of an tour agency in Istanbul, the Turkish capital, told that he anticipates the number of tourists that visit Croatia would decrease by 80 percent.
The Croatian national tourist board stated that previous year, Croatia welcomed around 52000 people from turkey, which was twenty percent increase from 2011.
Overall, last year Croatia welcomed 12.3 million tourists, which an increase of five percent when compared to the year 2011. In 2013 the Croatian tourist board will boost the Croatian hinterland in an effort to brand the nation as more than just a "sun and sea" place.
Matesic told that one of their main targets is to entice travelers to perceive their country as a year round city break place. And the they are also expecting that this year they would also see the same number of tourists like previous year.

8 awesome AR demos and experiences to look forward to
Oculus Rift this, HTC Vive that. Unsurprisingly, VR is the talk of the town right now and will be for some time.
That's not stopped Microsoft from getting tongues wagging about its HoloLens augmented reality headset that finally lands in the hands of developers this week.
Probably the most exciting thing to come out of Redmond since forever, HoloLens is not the only big news in AR right now. There's the Meta 2 and CastAR headsets and we still eagerly await to see what Magic Leap has in store for us. We still expect Google Glass Enterprise Edition to land at some point in the near future too.
Essential reading: The best VR and AR headsets
The key to the success of AR is what it will actually let us do at home or in the workplace and we're already getting glimpses of what we can look forward to. Here's some of favourite AR experiences, demos and concepts we can't wait to see more of.
Beam me up
Now this really is the stuff of science fiction movies: holoportation. Microsoft's Research team has essentially given us a glimpse at how intimate Skype conversations could be in the future. Using a special rig of cameras and two HoloLens headsets for each user, you'll be able to interact with a hologram of the other person in real time. Just watch the video and you'll see why this really could change the way you catch up with your friends and families who thousands of miles away.
X-ray vision
Back in January, Intel decided to get into the AR game by announcing that it was powering the Daqri, a smart helmet and safety goggles designed for the workplace. The Daqri helmet does have a pretty special party trick. Using augmented reality tech and thermal vision sensors, it's able to peer into objects in real time. That means workers can examine machinery with diagrams and maps visible to identify the problem quicker and faster than they could before.
Walking on Mars
Microsoft is joining forces with NASA to let you explore the Red Planet using HoloLens. The Destination: Mars exhibition, which takes place in the summer at the Kennedy Space Centre Visitor Complex in Florida, will use images and data collected by the Curiosity Rover and project them through the AR headset letting you walk around the planet's surface with Buzz Aldrin as your holographic tour guide. You'll basically get to see what mission scientists get to see, which is pretty cool.
Pass me that brain
Meta CEO Meron Gribetz unveiled the company's second gen augmented reality headset at TEDx 2016 earlier this year and with it showcased how it's going to take advantage of its HoloLens-beating field of view. Gribetz showed off making a live holographic call, examining a 3D model of a car up close, and best of all, reaching out at a 3D hologram model of a brain to interact with it.
Who dunnit?
Microsoft has already revealed a host of HoloLens apps and games developers will be able to play around with. One of the most interesting games is Fragments. Described by Microsoft as a mixed reality crime drama, users will be able to see potential suspects in a case enter your environment sitting on the couch telling you their side of the story. Thanks to HoloLens' ability to map environments, characters will be able to lean against objects to add a little more authenticity to the proceedings.
Virtual racer
Epson has reserved its AR eyewear for business and enterprise but with the new BT-300 specs it's broadening its horizons and basically hoping you can have a bit more fun with them. It's doing that by letting you control a DJi drone from the smartglasses and will also let you use them in the gym. So you can race in virtual environments when you get bored of staring in the mirror or the music videos played on loop on the TVs.
Watching the game
Superbowl, World Cup, the World Series, augmented reality could open a lot of interesting doors for the future of viewing sport from the comfort of your living room. Unlike VR, where it's all about getting you closer to the action, this concept video released by Microsoft earlier this year, paints a world where you can examine full scale models of stadiums, build fantasy football stats into the game in real time and even see full sized holograms of players.
See the sun
The secretive augmented reality startup that's being backed by the likes of Google and Warner Bros, has been busy recently raising big bucks for its Mixed Reality Lightfield tech. We also got a taste of what Magic Leap plans to do with it with a video shown off in late 2015 showcasing the possibilities of merging augmented and real worlds. The first was of a floating robot hiding behind a table leg as the user moves. The next and arguably more impressive was of a solar system where the glowing planets reflect onto the physical surfaces.

As we all know, there are numerous herbal dietary supplements on the market. Surveys have shown that some people take herbal supplements for health, for a sense of "well-being", or to address specific health issues and consumers report various degrees of satisfaction with these products.
Choosing the right herbal supplements for you or someone in your family may take a little research.
There is an herbal remedy for just about any condition. After all, herbs were the very first form of medicine and many, like black cumin have been around for thousands of years.
Herbalists typically categorize botanicals according to their known benefits or uses. There are herbs that are commonly used as food sources or seasonings and are known to be non-toxic at any "dosage". There are herbs that are used primarily for medicinal purposes, such as gotu kola or echinacea and some that have both medicinal and culinary uses, such as turmeric.
If you suffer from a specific medical condition, you should contact your physician, a doctor of alternative medicine or a qualified herbalist in order to find the right herbal supplements for you. On the other hand, some chronic conditions, such as the pain and inflammation associated with arthritis may be easily and safely relieved with the use of herbal dietary supplements.
Many plants have a natural anti-inflammatory affect. Inflammation not only causes pain, but is also believed to be involved in the progression of heart disease and cancer.
Researchers investigating the role of inflammation in chronic diseases have suggested that the regular use of natural anti-inflammatories (not over the counter drugs such as ibuprofen) may prevent the development of these diseases.
Some herbal dietary supplements that have natural anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects include Boswellia Serrata, Celery Seed, Bilberry, Chasteberry, Ginger and Piperine.
and ginger are herbal supplements for health that can be used on a
daily basis to prevent chronic inflammation and improve digestion.
Boswellia Serrata, Celery seed and Chasteberry are stronger
anti-inflammatories found primarily in herbal
dietary supplements designed to relieve the pain and swelling
caused by rheumatoid or osteoarthritis.
Piperine and certain enzymes enhance the
"bioavailability" of other
vitamins and minerals that may be included in your herbal dietary
supplements. In certain forms or in the wrong combination, nutrients
and botanicals may not be easily absorbed by the human body. The best
supplement manufacturers have a research and development team studying
the best way to get the most out of a health supplement. Taking herbal
dietary supplements that are poorly designed is a waste of time and
In order to be effective, some herbs must reach the upper intestine. If they are broken down by stomach acids, they will become ineffective. This is new technology that has been applied to traditional understanding of medicinal plants and herbs. It was understood that sometimes herbal remedies worked for some people, but not for others.
Researchers believe that they have discovered the reason for this variance and have found the solution. There is nothing more frustrating than taking herbal supplements for health or well-being and finding that they are ineffective.
SAM-E, for example, is a well known natural anti-depressant. When people find that the product does not work for them, it is likely that the manufacturers have not gone to efforts to prevent the molecule from being broken down in the stomach. Although SAM-E is not an herb, it is a co-factor found in many of the better combination herbal supplements for health and well-being.
Although the best herbal dietary supplements may cost a little more initially, they will save you in the long run from throwing away worthless ineffective products.

variety of products to choose from and can show you the research to
support the recommended usage of their products.

The finest the main 2016 Oakland A's are in fact the specific bullpen. It had been no less than Finest within the plan, otherwise Greatest 5. Aside from perhaps their very own catchers, the specific pencil are in fact the only real region where the A's are in fact meaningfully much better than plan regular.
But relievers will often be infamously not familiar,Dee Gordon Jerseys and that means you in no way determine at any time they'll divided apart for each 12 days concerning with no acceptance — for instance within 2015, each time a definitely effective Oakland dependent travelled totally bitter. The specific best method is always to remain superb as well as protect for example ideas from the fingertips truly before you decide to believe you have to.
That's exactly what the specific A's do this particular winter season by way of putting your own every single child Santiago Casilla.

There's a vast difference between faith "like" a mustard seed and faith "the size of" a mustard seed.
Jesus said, "If you had faith like a grain of mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, 'Be uprooted and planted in the sea,' and it would obey you" (ESV, Luke 17:6).
The NIV says, "Faith as small as a mustard seed"--which can be confusing since Jesus was not at all referring to the physical size of the mustard seed.
Faith "the physical size of" the mustard seed would be a very small faith, for sure.
But faith "like" the mustard seed is quite remarkable. It believes and trusts that, despite its tiny size and complete dependance on the goodwill of the gardener, it is destined to become a great plant.
A mustard seed trusts that, despite his own tiny size, the Almighty will nevertheless not leave a single one of His promises unfulfilled. Rather, He will work out everything in conformity with the purpose of His will (Ephesians 1:11). And He will watch over His Word to perform it (Jeremiah 1:12).
That is something altogether different than "having faith in ourselves" that, by tapping into some mysterious pool of inner strength, we can will into existence the thing we want. Or, like King Saul, take matters into our own hands.
A mustard seed puts his faith in the Gardener, not himself.
Of course, it's nice to have faith in yourself. But it's not really necessary.
Instead, let's anchor our faith in the trustworthiness of the Gardener and the promises of His Word.
Until every church disciples every man…

I have a load of the lil metal ones still too.. same reason cos they've lasted. Theyre in a tub underneath my model desk as it happens.. lol
Why not one refitted to boost an ASAT/ABM-launcher version of the X-15? Add a little relative flexibility in mopping up what the Alaska-based and seaborne Tier 3 Aegis installations miss...
That works too, Evan--I thought X-15 was about the size of a D-21 and an ASAT was about the size of X-15A-2's drop tanks, and was thinking that by adding an intermediate "booster stage" that'd expand the safety margin for knockdown.

Email newsletters are a great way for a new business to market its products and services. They can be very effective if they're done correctly, and each newsletter costs nothing other than business owner's time. Newsletters are a great way to market to both past and potential customers. Having a consistent approach will be much more effective than random marketing. If the newsletter is interesting enough, its recipients will eventually look forward to it, which is the ultimate goal for any marketing piece. This form of drip marketing will lead to business in the future. Perhaps the timing wasn't right when a prospective customer first made contact; several months later, when the customer is ready to buy, the newsletter has served its purpose as a constant reminder.
Get Consent Before Adding Anyone to a List
The first step is to create an easy way for current and prospective customers to sign up for the mailing list. This also give the business owner permission to regularly email and market without violating any anti-spam laws. Add an unsubscribe option for recipients who no longer want to receive the newsletter. Post messages to your social media sites, including LinkedIn and Facebook, to let people know how they can sign up for your mailing list.
Address your Target Market Directly and Personally
The next step is to create the newsletter for the business's target market. Tailor it to the specific focus of the business. For example, an accountant should write about topics that address taxes and how it could affect individuals and business owners. If an accountant wrote about a completely unrelated topic, it would lose the focus of the original audience.
Making newsletters specific to the sections within target market drastically increase their effectiveness. An accountant could write an email newsletter specifically tailored to families with new babies, for example. Anyone in this situation would be very in tune to this topic and have great interest in what the newsletter had to say about financial products for growing families.
An effective newsletter is educational and interesting on a personal level. Newsletters need to be written toward the perspective of its intended audience. Having a boring or uninformative newsletter would quickly lose the audience's interest. The average person gets many emails every day, and an effective newsletter needs to stand out from the pack. Having a catchy subject line or newsletter title will help. However, the content will keep the customer reading and eventually may pique the interest of the reader into purchasing the business's products or services.
Making it personal also allows the reader to develop a relationship with the brand. Emails have become so impersonal that it is hard to convey human connection through this medium. Adding a personal story or message can build this connection from the business owner to the customer.
Use a Professional Email Domain So Customers Recognize You
Use a recognizable email domain, or the newsletter could be mistaken for spam. Recipients might delete the email before they ever open it.
All email communication, especially newsletters, needs to have easily read and accessible contact information for the company. It should have the company name, address, phone number and a link to the company's website where the customer can access more information. When the timing is right for a purchase, the potential customer needs to be able to find the business's information with ease. Include links to the business's social media, such as icons that link to the company's official Facebook page or Twitter feed, so your mailing list subscribers can also follow your communication on other channels.
Reward Customers for Signing Up
Provide an incentive for the subscribers to join your mailing list, such as a free service or a coupon that they can get for signing up. Most people are reluctant to give out an email address for marketing purposes. Having something of value given in exchange for their permission to email will increase the amount of subscribers.
Send Brand-Relevant Content That Sets You Apart As an Authority in Your Field
The message of the newsletter needs to portray the business's brand to the customer. The purpose of the newsletter is to drive new business. For professionals such as accountants or bookkeepers, discussing changes in tax laws or tips for business owners would help demonstrate mastery in their field. An electrician could put provide some do-it-yourself tips that average homeowners can do to lower their energy bills. A bike shop owner could display how a new wheel for a bicycle drastically improves race performance.
Tie this content into a way that the business can help the reader in these endeavours. Provide a link back to a page on the business's website discussing relevant products and services, or remind the reader of your contact information if they'd like to learn more about how you can help them.

IALT: reflect on what we did during our time with Te Tuhi.
It was final visit to the Te Tuhi Art Gallery located in Pakuranga for our lesson on.. role play and poster making. When we first arrived, we met up with Salome, and she directed us to the room where we would be performing our role plays in front of our peers, and teacher.
Our next step from there was to separate with our groups, find a space inside the area of where we were presenting, and have those 'final practices'. We had about a good 5-10 minutes of practice time before gathering up as a class and performing to each other our skits/role plays.
When we gathered back as one.. our group kindly volunteered to go first. At first it was honestly nerve racking to be known as the group who was the first group up, and had to set the bar real high and set a good example. Anyways, as we performed through our skit Miss Komor kindly recorded it which is here for for you to watch (below).
As you can see we started off with a brief description on what our play/skit was about... which was basically just to help paint and form a picture in our audiences head.
When I was presenting my biggest struggle/challenge, was making eye contact with the audience. Everytime I looked up I saw more than 2 pairs of eyes.. which was a bit freaky, So I took deep breaths in and out and continued in performing with my group.
Though I really enjoyed performing and presenting to my peers and teacher something cultural, and something that reflects me and my past.
Then we began a reflection task for the posters we created during our time at Te Tuhi, which was done after our skit/role plays. Take a look below...
What are your thoughts?

Haldighati is famous historical site known for the gallantry of Maharana Pratap. Located at a distance of 40 km from Udaipur city, Haldighati is a mountain pass in the Aravalli range joining two districts – Rajsamand and Pali of Rajasthan.
Due to the tumeric color of the mountains, these are called Haldi-Ghati. These narrow mountain plays very important role in defending the honour of Mewar dynasty. In 1576 , Haldighati witness a huge war between Rana Pratap Singh of Mewar and Raja Man Singh of Amber.
Great battlefield, brave soldiers' heroic deeds and red color soil tuned by blood makes a visitor sweating. Maharana Pratap and his horse 'Chetak' were the hero's of Haldighati battle. This blooy battle takes away many lives with loyal Chetak also. Nearby pure white marble cenotaph is dedicated to courteous Chetak. Haldighati, a historic place, is twenty-four km from Nathdwara and 43 km from Uclaipur–the site of a bloody battle fought in 1576 AD between Akbar and Maharana Pratap's armies. The picturesque mountain-pass now has a house showing through pictures the scenes of the battle. The spot where Chetak, Maharana's faithful horse, died, trying to save its master, is marked by a memorial.

OAK Stock Is Paying a Growing High Dividend Yield of 11.1%
Consider OAK Stock for Its 11.09% Dividend Yield
Owning companies that are trading at a discount is a great way to control risk within an investment portfolio and also own an investment that offers value. The company we are looking at today is offering a high dividend yield of 11.09%.
How is value determined within a company?
Value is not determined by looking at the stock chart. What this means is that a low price today compared to a previous point in time doesn't mean that there is value in the company. Rather, there must be a comparison made using the company and its competitors as a benchmark. This is done using the company's price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio, which ignores market cap size, share price, and dividend yield.
The reason why this is the best method to determine value is because companies within the same market segment will see the same external effects on earnings, such as the performance of the economy, government regulations, and the benchmark interest rates.
With all this being said, one company that investors may want to consider looking into for their investment portfolios is Oaktree Capital Group LLC (NYSE:OAK) stock. Let's take a deeper look at the value that OAK stock offers.
Cheap Valuation
The P/E ratio takes the stock's trading price and then divides it by the annual earnings of the company. When the ratio of a stock is lower than its peer group average, then there is value in the company. When purchasing a company at a lower P/E ratio, the expectation is that the ratio of the company will trade in line with its peer group.
In the case of OAK stock, it currently has a P/E ratio of 10.4 times, compared to 22.4 times for the industry peer group. To simplify things, this means that investors pay $10.40 for each dollar of earnings, compared to $22.40 for the industry group.
Why Is OAK Stock Trading at a Discount?
There are two reasons why a stock would trade at a discount: either investors are ignoring the company, or there is no growth in the company to look forward to as an investor. If the company has no growth, then I would suggest staying away from such an investment. However, if the market is ignoring the company, then it would be ideal to consider as an investment. The reason is because there is value in the company and it would be a contrarian investment opportunity.
When assessing the financials of Oaktree, the thesis is leaning more towards investors ignoring OAK stock and its great business operations. For example, the net income in the second quarter of 2017 increased to $117.3 million from $49.0 million in the same quarter in 2016. Even when comparing the second quarter of 2017 to 2016, fee-generating assets grew by one percentage point in a three-month period. While waiting for OAK to increase in valuation, there is a method of getting paid for your time now, since the company offers dividends. (Source: "Oaktree Announces Second Quarter 2017 Financial Results," NASDAQ, July 27, 2017.)
Earn a High Dividend Yield
The current dividend yield is 11.09%, which is distributed on a quarterly basis. Let's say a $100,000 investment was made in OAK stock. There would be $11,090 earned annually and $2,772 quarterly. The quarterly dividend would amount to $1.31 per share. OAK stock is also a dividend growth stock that has seen an increase of 124% over the previous quarter.
With the business growing over the previous year and quarter, there is more possibility of seeing more dividend hikes. As a result, investors would not need to sell any shares and would collect a higher dividend per share. The benefit as an investor is that a higher dividend yield would be calculated, which would result in a higher rate of return over time.

Final Thoughts About OAK Stock
Owning a value stock is a great method of owning great investments on the cheap. Also, with this investment strategy, there is never the need to chase a stock and potentially purchase one at an overvalued valuation.
This is why OAK stock is one of my favorites in the high dividend-yielding environment. There is still a return being generated even though the market may not realize that this stock is trading at a discount. When the time does come and investors notice OAK stock, investors would see the positive results in their bottom line, with the stock price trading higher.

Thomas Jefferson had a copy machine?
I communicate to Congress, for their information, a report of the Surveyor of the public buildings at Washington, stating what has been done under the act of the last session concerning the city of Washington, on the Capitol and other public buildings and the highway between them.
To the Senate and House of Representatives of US, February 22, 1804
Patrick Lee's Explanation
Smart leaders embrace new technology.
The content this letter, reproduced in its entirety, has no particular significance. How it was written does. The notes accompanying this letter in the Founders Archives relate this was Jefferson's "first recorded use of the polygraph machine."
The polygraph was a copy machine. A wooden frame suspended two ink pens over two sheets of paper. The pens were held together by a series of wooden arms and hinges. When the writer wrote with one pen on one sheet, the other pen followed along, making an identical copy on the other sheet. Some polygraphs had three ink pens, some four. Jefferson found those difficult to keep in adjustment and used one with just two.
Jefferson, always intrigued with machines and inventions, loved the new device! He referred to it as "the finest invention of the present age." Since he kept copies of all his correspondence, some 20,000 letters over a lifetime, the polygraph represented a major advance over the letter press. This letter was written on a borrowed polygraph. It would be 1806 before he owned one of his own.

Cancer is not within the federal government's authority.
… with respect to any application to Congress, it would be inefficient, because the Constitution allows them to give no other reward for useful discoveries but the exclusive right for 14. years: and the care of the public health is not among those [powers] given to the general government, but remains exclusively with the legislatures of the respective states …
To James Houston, February 10, 1804
Patrick Lee's Explanation
Wise leaders accept limits on their authority.
In a long curious letter to the President, Houston, a 52 year old farmer described being in Philadelphia for treatment of a cancer he'd suffered from for many years. He claimed to have been mostly healed and wanted to make the doctor's cure known publicly. The doctor refused, because the pills he compounded to treat the cancer were a major source of income. Still, for $50,000, the doctor would release the formula.
Houston had written a "pamphlet," some lengthy, rhyming narrative of his treatment and cure, and sent a portion of it to the President. He hoped to publish and sell it to raise funds toward that $50,000 goal. He sought a patent on his pamphlet. The President acknowledged a 14 year patent "for useful discoveries," but that did not apply to Houston's effort. Neither was the national government authorized by the Constitution to guard public health. Under the 10th Amendment, that authority remained with the individual states.
While he could not help his petitioner, Jefferson remained gracious. He concluded his letter by congratulating Houston "on his prospect of recovery, and sincerely wishes it may be compleated."
Two months later, Houston filed for a copyright on his pamphlet in the federal court in Philadelphia and published it with the title, "A Plan for the Ladies Fund, in the United States of America, for the Relief of Those Afflicted with Cancers."

Might we scratch each other's backs?
Considering that we have shortly to ask a favour ourselves from the Creeks [Creek Indians], the Tuckabatché road, may we not turn the application of Hawkins to our advantage, by making it the occasion of broaching that subject to them? … it is becoming indispensible for us to have a direct communication from the seat of our government with that place [New Orleans], by a road which, instead of passing the mountains … shall keep below the mountains the whole way … that we do not mean to ask this favor for nothing, but to give them for it whatever it is worth; besides that they will have the advantages of keeping taverns for furnishing necessaries to travellers, of selling their provisions & recieving a great deal money in that way …
To Henry Dearborn, February 9, 1804
Patrick Lee's Explanation
Smart leaders use gifts to open negotiations.
The "application of Hawkins," U.S. Indian Agent for the southern tribes, was approved, granting a number of supplies needed by the Creek Indians. The President asked his War Secretary to use the granting of these supplies to open negotiations for a concession from the Creeks.
The current road from Washington to New Orleans was through the mountains of Tennessee. U.S. acquisition of Louisiana required a better, faster route. That road would be south of the mountains, through Creek Indian land, across Georgia and Alabama. The U.S. would soon be asking the Creeks for permission to build that road.
Jefferson insisted the U. S. would not take the needed land but would pay for it. The granted supplies might open the door with the Creeks. Not only would they be reimbursed for the right-of-way, the Creeks would profit from maintaining the business development rights along the new road.

Can we make a bad situation just a bit better?
the family is represented as being in a very unhappy state, the parents old & anxious once more to see their son … they pray [he] may be discharged & restored to them . every thing connected with a regular soldiery is so unpopular with citizens at large, that every occasion should be taken of softening it's roughnesses towards them. in time of peace … I think it would have a good effect to indulge citizens of respectability in cases like the present …
To Henry Dearborn, February 9, 1804
Patrick Lee's Explanation
Wise leaders consider bending the rules occasionally.
A family member petitioned the President for an early release of a soldier who had already served eight years. In 1795, while intoxicated, that young man was induced to enlist by a zealous recruiter. When his five year term was completed, the desperate soldier lacked funds to travel 1,200 miles home and re-enlisted. The soldier's parents were heartbroken to learn of this news and asked another son to write the President on their behalf. That son begged mercy for his aged parents and release for his brother.
The President referred the matter to Dearborn, his Secretary of War, relaying the facts given him by the petitioning brother. Jefferson acknowledged that public opinion was not on their side regarding the "roughnesses" of military life. This soldier had served one five year term and was more than half through a second five years. The nation was at peace. Could they grant an indulgence to this family, not only for their sake but for public opinion, as well?
The petitioner wrote that another brother had died in March 1803. A footnote to the petitioner's letter recorded the petitioner himself died a month after writing to the President, at the age of 20. I find no record of how Dearborn acted in this manner, but I suspect he granted the release.

and … [a] testimony to the presentation and your considerable skills."

What do we do in the worst-case-scenario?
other Questions to be considered, in the event of a British cruiser falling in with the vessel in which mr Harvie will be.
1. shall he throw the papers overboard on his vessel being brought to? or trust to an examination in hopes of liberation.
2. if detained, shall he deliver the stock to liberate his vessel? shall he accompany the stock to England? or abandon it & carry to Paris the information of what has happened?
To Albert Gallatin, January 24, 1804
Patrick Lee's Explanation
Wise leaders plan for unpleasant possibilities.
Lewis Harvie, the President's private secretary (who succeeded Meriwether Lewis), was to carry $11.25 million in stock to France for the purchase of Louisiana. How to get him safely there was a serious consideration when British ships were harassing, boarding and sometimes capturing foreign vessels or their passengers.
Jefferson directed Secretary of the Treasury Gallatin to inquire about all passages available on American ships leaving Baltimore or New York for Europe. He was to look for routes that went south of England to the Continent, rather than ones going through the English Channel, were British ships abounded. Harvie would arrive in the American port anonymously and on short notice, book his passage and leave.
If all that failed, and Harvie's ship was stopped by the British, the President proposed five questions to be answered before that worst-case-scenario unfolded.

helped make the inauguration evening ceremonies even more special."

It's fake news, my friend. (But I won't say so publicly.)
those especially who read the Gazette of the US. need to be set to rights, for in the long statement which appeared in that paper about a week ago, there was not one single fact which was not false …
the Gazette of the US. is evidence of this [opposition] … 4. pages of solid matter … & the whole so false and malignant, as shews it is prepared for the purpose of exportation, and to poison the minds of foreign countries against their own, which is too well informed to drink of the dose.
To William Short, January 23, 1804
Patrick Lee's Explanation
Strong opposition from some of the press comes to all leaders.
The previous post, from a letter to Jefferson's daughter, dealt with diplomatic offense taken when he did not show favoritism to British and Spanish representatives at private dinners. In this long letter to a trusted friend, Jefferson explained the conflict in much greater detail.
He was particularly concerned about a report in an opposition newspaper, the Gazette of the United States, claiming every single fact in the account to be wrong. The entirety of the paper was "so false and malignant" that its only purpose was "to poison the minds of foreign countries" against the United States. Affirming confidence in his countrymen, he said Americans were "too well informed" to drink that poison.
Jefferson regularly shared strong opinions in his correspondence with trusted friends but almost never did so publicly, where he maintained an even-handed cordiality. Yet, he wanted to reassure those who knew him well with the benefit of his thinking, to combat what opponents thought of him.
"The "Dinner with Thomas Jefferson" … was a huge success…

and your facility in answering complex questions were impressive."

We are all equal here. Fooey on them!
On Friday Congress give a dinner on the acquisition of Louisiana. they determine to invite no foreign ministers, to avoid questions of etiquette, in which we are enveloped by Merry's & Yrujo's families. … [their conflict will continue] until they recieve orders from their courts to acquiesce in our principles of the equality of all persons meeting together in society, & not to expect to force us into their principles of allotment into ranks & orders.
To Martha Jefferson Randolph, January 23, 1804
Patrick Lee's Explanation
Just leaders do not show favoritism, especially when it is expected.
President Jefferson disdained the aristocratic expectations of England's and Spain's ambassadors to America. They insisted on favored treatment and were incensed not to receive it. Thus, they were excluded from a Congressional dinner.
Although Jefferson wished his elder daughter could be with him in Washington City, it was better for her that she was absent. His Cabinet Secretary's wives had already been abused in the press for not fawning over the ambassadors' wives. His daughter would receive even worse treatment from foes who wanted to distress him.
The President was clear. Other nations:
– Must acquiesce to America's equality for all in society.
– Should keep their privileged society, "allotment into ranks & orders," to themselves.

We agree on three essential principles!
The satisfaction which you express … with the substitution of economy for taxation, & the progress and prospect exhibited of the discharge of our public debt within a convenient period, is a proof of that soundness of [your] political principle … the preference you give to the late acquisition of territory by just & peaceable means, rather than by rapine & bloodshed, is in the genuine spirit of that primitive Christianity, which so peculiarly inculcated the doctrines of peace, justice, and good will to all mankind.
To the Portsmouth, Virginia Baptist Society, January 20, 1804
Patrick Lee's Explanation
All leaders appreciate an atta-boy!
In a November 1803 letter to the President, the Society expressed their appreciation for the direction of the new government. Jefferson acknowledged their thank-you and reiterated three areas of agreement:
1. Better for government to do less rather than tax more.
2. Prudent to have a specific plan for paying off the national debt.
3. Acquiring Louisiana by diplomacy and not war demonstrated "that primitive Christianity" characterized by "peace, justice and good will to all mankind."

2. Viruses and worms
Certain types of malware create problems by copying themselves.
This is a piece of code that is designed to replicate itself throughout the computer or network. For example it will add itself to a file on your computer and, every time the file is opened, the virus runs and once more seeks out other files to infect. Viruses can be difficult to get rid of since, if a single infected file is left, it will eventually re-infect many other files on your system.
A virus will often be designed to delete or corrupt data.
New viruses appear every day, and so the anti-virus companies are constantly updating their software to keep up with them.
This behaves just like a virus, but does not necessarily harm files. Instead, it tries to copy itself so many times that the whole system runs out of resources and crashes.
One of the most famous worms is the ILOVEYOU email worm. In 2000, it managed to infect nearly 10% of all internet connected computers, causing an estimated $8 billion in damages.
Named after the famous Greek story of the Trojan Horse.
A trojan appears to be a harmless application - a downloaded game for example. You play the game, but meanwhile it is running in the background carrying out its real intent - maybe letting someone else access to your computer.
