Damn. These newer posters sure are succinct.

Wow! We have common knowledge that escorts write the reviews and now it is no secret that moderators protect their favorites! Nothing like backing stuff up with facts!

Wow, that's a long article about some stuff I don't like to know about. I want my privacy, or at least that's what I tell my friends at Facebook when I share stories about my sexual escapades and let strangers read them. I had to Google some terms to explain what I like and Google kept a record of what I searched for, plus they read all of my email, but that's nothing like NSA wants to do, is it? I mean, it's not like NSA has cookies on our computer! It's not, isn't it? Hmm, maybe I will read that long article. First I have to go shopping, where I save all kinds of money by using my card that lets the stores know everything I buy.

I have no problem with you expressing a different opinion, but I think you did not read the article I linked. You state that one can use "quality" supplements, what ever that is, "but you have to do your home work." The difficulty in "doing your homework" is cited in the article. Of the hundreds of supplements cited, only about ten percent cited any studies to back up their claims. And, if one does his homework, he finds that these studies are often worthless. Finally, protein is protein and is an established supplement. There are differences on the value of whey over other kinds, but one can take protein and see a benefit. The article linked refers to the multitude of other supplements offered to body builders. Read the article. Here's how it begins: In a recent survey of the performance-enhancing claims made for dozens of fitness products, researchers found not a single one that could be supported by rigorous scientific research. Moreover, the few fitness products that have been thoroughly evaluated appear to have no effect on strength, endurance, speed or reduced muscle fatigue. “All the companies say they’ve got a scientific basis for these products,” said the senior author, Dr. Matthew Thompson, a senior clinical scientist at the University of Oxford. “That sounds good until you look at it with an objective scientific point of view.” Dr. Thompson and his colleagues examined advertising for sports drinks, oral supplements, footwear, clothing and devices like wrist bands and compression stockings in 100 general-interest magazines and the top 10 sports and fitness magazines in Britain and the United States.

Sherman Hemsley, the actor who played George Jefferson on the popular TV series The Jeffersons, died in El Paso, Texas, today. Hemsley originated the character of George on the Archie Bunker show, All in The Family in 1973. His wife, Luoise, and son, Lionel, were so popular with audiences that they were given their own spinoff, The Jeffersons, and an address, 185 East 85th Street, in Manhattan's Upper East Side. The show's theme song, Moving On Up, reflected their rise in status from a home in Queens to the elegant East Side. Other popular characters on the show were neighbor Tom Willis, and maid Florence. Hemsley was 74.

There was a time, which now seems quite long ago, when I had bulges where my biceps are. Now the only bulge is in my belly. My fitness days are long over, so now scientists reveal the truth about all of those body building supplements They are junk! The NY Times reports in its Science section today that a recent survey of performance-enhancing claims for dozens of fitness products show that the claims these products make have not been thoroughly evaluated, and the few that have "appear to have no effect on strength, endurance, speed or reduced muscle fatigue." I remember that the gyms I went to would sell drinks to help you recover from the workout. Other "sports drinks" were said to have various benefits that are known not to be true. So, much money has been wasted by bodybuilders who only ended up with expensive poop. They peed away their dollars, and, no doubt, still do. So how do so many guys seem to have that muscular look? Hard work! And, probably, for some, testosterone shots- the one supplement that I think does help build strong bodies! Read the article: http://well.blogs.ny...cts/?ref=health

China will not reveal the name of its flag bearer for the Opening games in London, but one official says he will be "tall, handsome, and influential." Speculation has thus centered on Liu Xiang, a gold medal winner in hurdles. Another possible name is swimmer Sun Yang

She was with her partner for 27 years according to towleroad.com.

I doubt that I will ever get back to China, much less hire an escort there. The government/police can be quite nasty when it wants to, but that's true in Thailand too.

I don't think Daddy had a melt down, I think he was just tired of the bickering. A vacation will be good for everyone. I do agree with lurkerspeaks that leaving the site up to be read is a good idea even if no new posts can be made. He makes the good point that the message center is the cumulation of contributions by the members, and thus should be available to them for reading even while the management is on vacation.

So if ten guys lose a scholarship, does that even the score for ten guys molested? Why do these guys have to pay for what Sandusky did? There is no way to undo the damage done, but the NCAA action doesn't do much to punish the people who need the punishment. I can buy banning the team from bowl games if that is seen as a lesson to future molesters. Take down Paterno's statue, consider his legacy ruined. Punish the admins who did nothing. Keep Sandusky locked up. Hang his wife in the public square. But why punish football players who knew nothing of this? Why steal scholarships from kids who knew nothing of this?
-
Judd, I have no doubt that the outcome of the contest will be held fair and square. My guess is that all of the contestants feel the same way. We are just quietly confident that one of us will end up with $500 bucks and spend it wisely!

This is the second arrest for Mr. Willard for these charges. The LA Times reports that he was arrested 20 years ago for a similar charge, but was allowed to go through a pre-trial diversion program. I find these kinds of arrests for masturbating in a theater where everyone there wants to do the same thing to be despicable.
-
You find my disagreement with this punishment "despicable?" Really?
-
haha, anonymous and alleged lawyer! I was only at 2 of them so explain how they lost 4!

Yes, Townie, aka Townsend P. Locke, gets to decide when the contest draw will be held. He will announce it when he next posts here, which might be sometime in 2013. I kid of course, but it has been some time since he suggested the luncheon: TownsendPLocke Prodigious Member Members 936 posts Posted 01 June 2012 - 04:10 PM I just want to put a place marker here, I would like to start making plans for a dinner in WeHo for mid-July. Date and place YTBD and will be coordinated with TotallyOz It has been awhile since we have had such a dinner and I look forward to seeing some friends old and new..

Isn't the anonymity of the message board a wonderful thing?

It's hard to understand the action taken by the NCAA in response to molestations by a football coach at Penn State: From the NY Times: The N.C.A.A. announced significant penalties against Penn State and its football program Monday, including a $60 million fine and a four-year postseason ban, in the wake of the child sexual abuse scandal involving the former assistant coach Jerry Sandusky. The N.C.A.A. stopped short of shutting down Penn State’s program, but officials insisted that the breadth and significance of the penalties were nearly as debilitating. It is expected to be almost a decade before Penn State will be in a position to attempt to regain its place as one of the sport’s elite programs. The punishment also included the loss of 10 scholarships per year for the next four years, with a limit of 65 total scholarship players on the roster, as opposed to the typical 85, by the 2014 season. The university must also vacate all of its victories from 1998 to 2011, meaning that Joe Paterno is no longer the major-college career leader in football wins. * An awful lot of people who never molested anyone must now suffer for Sandusky's behavior. No scholarships for some deserving students. The loss of victories by football players who knew nothing of Sandusky's behavior. A school where no one but a very select few knew of this behavior sees its football program devastated. And how does $60 million undo the damage that Sandusky did? Who gets that money? To me, it's a ridiculous response. Why not more education of youth on how to avoid molesters? Why not counseling programs for those who do not avoid it? Maybe that $60 million will go toward these goals, but I will believe it when it happens.

Japanese gymnast Kohei Uchimura is considered one of the world's best male gymnasts and a favorite in London.

I hope that Indian gymnast Ashish Kumar will be in the London Olympics. But, sad to say, he won't: Ashish Kumar interview: “The Gymnastics Federation did nothing to help me get a wild card for the Olympics”Ashish Kumar is the boy who got gymnastics into mainstream sports by becoming the first ever Indian to win medals in the Commonwealth Games and Asian Games events. This 21-year-old was the best hope for India in gymnastics in the Olympics, but his hopes were shattered when the Gymnastic Federation of India decided to give more importance to their unproductive infighting than support this young lad to conquer his dreams. In an exclusive interview with Sportskeeda correspondent Taruka Srivastav, Ashish Kumar spoke about his unsuccessful efforts to participate in the London Games. Full Interview

Chinese gymnast Yang Wei did not make the Outsports list. Maybe it is because he just doesn't take a good picture! But, he did win a Gold in 2008.

Gymnast Phillip Boy seems to be the one most likely to win my heart, insofar as i didn't notice any Asians or Latins in the group...okay, I didn't look at all 30, but I did see this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXft1whjE-U

A Spokesman for the diocese of New Jersey says "...this is just a knot in a tree..." but many of the faithful see the Virgin Mother of Guadulupe. Yes, a knot in a gingko balboa tree in New Jersey has the shape of the Virgin Mother of Jesus, and there is quite a bit of dispute over it. One woman, screamed "We don't want Satan" as a 96 year old woman with a stemmed white rose walked up and began hitting a man with it. The man was holding a leather bound Bible while shouting "This is witchcraft; you are worshiping devils." Just as you think the whole world is aghast at Daddy closing his site down for two weeks, this article reminds you that life goes on, that many are in search of God, and fights and disagreements are not limited to message boards: http://www.nytimes.c...ml?ref=nyregion
