Tiffany Comes Calling Ch. 01bydeputy duffy©
Part 1 (of 2)
I got a call from my cousin Tiffany one night. It had been years since we'd spoken. She grew up around these parts but moved away years ago. It was an awkward conversation. I knew she wanted something, but she just couldn't seem to spit it out. She finally said that she'd write me.
A week later, I got a large tan envelope containing some papers...old papers. I started reading...
It's me again.
Finally had sex with Gregory. It was sweet, but it just didn't do it for me. I wish I could figure it out. Why am I like this?
There were a couple of incidents when I was younger that might help explain. The first one coming just after I graduated from high school.
He was a surgeon. I think he gave old people new knees and hips. I'll call him Dr. Smith. I was out one night parting with his daughter, Veronica (my next door neighbor and best friend for years). We had a blast, but I guess we stayed out a little too long. When we got home, Dr. Smith was waiting for us in the foyer. He yelled at his daughter and then sent her to her room, telling her he'd deal with her in the morning.
He turned to me with fire in his eye, "Get into my office, young lady...I'll deal with you now."
I gulped, remembering his office is where IT had happened.
Slowly marching down the hall, my mind flashed back to the last spanking that I received at his hands. It was two, maybe three years ago, when Veronica and I got caught smoking cigarettes at school. After a lengthy sermon about the dangers of smoking, he had us both lean over his desk. He pulled my pants and panties down to my knees and spanked my bare ass, though Veronica got to keep her jeans on. The humiliation of it all had kept me in line for years, and, as I stood at his door, I couldn't believe I was back in this situation.
But I thought with a sigh, "I'm 18 and headed to college in the fall. Surely he wouldn't try and spank me again."
"Get in there," he barked, swinging the door open. He didn't wait. He pushed me into the room.
"Please, Dr. Smith. I-I...just let me go home." My nerves were going crazy.
"I just can't believe your stupidity!" he screamed.
"Please," I pleaded. He was really scaring me.
"What time is it?" He was tapping his watch.
I couldn't say anything. I knew I was past curfew, but just by one hour. A lot of my friends could stay out until 1am. Sometimes I could, too, but not when Dr. Smith was watching me. I had to check in with him on the weekends when my mother did inventory at her work because she didn't get home until 3am. For some reason she trusted him. I think it was because he was a doctor.
He pulled me close. "And it smells and looks like you've been drinking."
I pulled away. (I'd had a couple of screwdrivers at the party, but I wasn't smashed.)
"And to top it off, you drove home and had my daughter with you in the car."
I lowered my head; he had me there. (Ok, they were large screwdrivers, but like I said, I wasn't smashed.)
He sat behind his desk. "Look at me."
It took some nerve, but I finally lifted my head. Dr. Smith's steely gaze was kind of scary. Normally I consider him somewhat attractive in a older-man-fantasy type of way, but not tonight.
I shook with every word of that command because that's exactly how it all started the last time. I knew that he intended on punishing me now.
"Please, I'm too old," I begged.
"Apparently not," he sneered. "You've made some juvenile decisions tonight, and I plan on correcting that right now. You know your mother has given me the right."
I did (she even laughed when I told her what happened last time and then she grounded me to boot), but that was a couple years ago. A tear rolled down my cheek. I started stacking the papers on his desk, all the while wondering how I could get myself out of this. I cleared off his desk and placed most of the stuff on a wooden chair in the corner. I put his telephone on the floor underneath. His desk was now clear. He tossed me a rag, and I wiped off the top of the desk. I know it wasn't the same, but it felt like I was preparing my own electric chair.
"Stand up straight," he ordered, grabbing the rag. He took off his nerdy glasses and sat back in his office chair and folded his arms. His dark eyes ran up and down my body. His sudden case of hungry eyes only added to my nerves.
"Look at you," he finally said.
"W-w-what?" I mumbled, confused.
"What you're wearing. Can that white top be any tighter? You can practically see your nipples."
My hands flew up over my chest. "Please, Dr. Smith."
"And that black skirt, it's short enough, and with those high heeled shoes, I bet half the guys at the party know what color your panties are." He chuckled, and then teasingly added, "You ARE wearing panties?"
"Yes," I hissed.
"Well, I guess they didn't come with a matching bra."
I was still holding my hands over my chest. I was used to guys staring at my chest ever since I developed into a C-cup. But I was dressed to party, and maybe attract Kevin Michelle's eyes, not Dr. Smith's.
"I can see now why my daughter now dresses like a tramp."
"We're not that way; it's just how we girls dress."
"That doesn't mean it's right, or that I have to put up with it."
I shook my head, thinking, "Dr. Smith obviously has no idea what it's like to be an eighteen-year-old girl these days."
"Now, go over and close the door and press the button on the knob."
I slowly turned and closed the door, fighting my urge to run away. I pushed the button, realizing that I was locking out the outside world. I also knew that it was very much a symbolic move. I was now alone with a very angry Dr. Smith.
When I returned, he motioned me over to the side of his desk. He started with a lecture about drinking and driving and boys and blah, blah, blah. On and on he went.
Finally he shouted, "Are you listing?"
I nodded my head. "Can I go now? I've learned my lesson."
"I don't think you've learned shit," he snapped. He sat back in his chair and hissed, "Strip."
THIS got my attention. "Strip? What do you mean 'strip'?"
"I mean, take off your frigging clothes."
"B-b-but, you can't be serious?" My face started to burn, but his expression told he was serious. I knew I was in for another bare bottom spanking, but hoped that, despite his rage, he would stop there.
After some stalling to catch my breath, I bent down to unbuckle my heels, but he told me to keep them on and to get going. It was like he was in a frigging hurry. I reached for my skirt's zipper and unzipped it. With a shake of the hips, it gathered around my ankles. I kicked it aside.
Dr. Smith cleared his throat; he wasn't happy. "Jesus, girl, pick that up, fold it neatly and place it in this drawer."
I looked over, and he had one of the drawers on the far side of his desk open. Numbly, I picked up my skirt and folded it and started around the desk.
"Hey, get back here."
I stood confused, but he motioned for me to return to my starting place.
"Oh god," I moaned, realizing that he wanted me to lean over him and put it in the drawer. When I did, I swore he sniffed my blonde hair.
"Dr. Smith," I complained, not wanting to turn this into something sexual.
"Just checking for cigarettes. Now get going."
I didn't really believe him, but I had other issues, mostly that he wasn't happy that I wore a black thong, and then he surprised me by telling me to take it off. I looked at him like I must have heard him wrong.
"I said 'off,'" he said, firmly, when I tried to protest.
The last time he pulled my panties down. This time it seemed a million times worse. I had to slide them down my legs and shake them out, fold them, and lean over his lap and put them in his drawer. But somehow I did it. I took several deep breaths when I finished.
As I stood before him, I used my hands to hide my nudity. I didn't like the sour look on his face. "Ah, Dr. Smith, let's get this over."
"That's what I was thinking," he responded.
I was confused. He just sat there, staring. So I moved over and dropped my elbows onto his desk, like last time.
He chuckled. "Stand back up, you're not ready for that yet."
"What?" I said, standing up.
He pointed at my top. "Off."
"Why?" (It didn't make sense that I'd have to take off my top for a spanking.)
"Because I said 'strip,' and that means you undress completely. Jesus, I'm a doctor."
I shook my head; more then a little miffed. I felt that he just wanted to see my breasts. I mean, I was bottomless and preparing to let him spank me, and he has to get greedy. The nerve! Plus, he was a surgeon. His patients were old and gray. I doubt they had boobs like mine.
"Well, looks like someone isn't as mature as she thought she was. If you were, simply exposing your breasts to a forty-year-old doctor wouldn't be such a big deal." He chuckled. "Plus, I can tell that you have brown nipples that appear to be erect."
I'd had enough. "You perv! Give me my clothes back." I leaned over him, but he slammed the drawer shut, while also grabbing my hair. I winced in pain and tried to pull away. I felt a sudden tug at my top, and I heard and felt it being torn from my body. I pleaded with him to stop, but he was stronger. He used his strength to push me over the desk. Then he pulled my hands behind my back. I felt them being tied together, and I realized that my own shredded top was being used to bind me. My tears began to patter onto the desk. They were not from pain, but from defeat. I couldn't break free.
He pulled me up and spun me around. Then he sat down on his chair and pinned me against the desk. This also left him eye level with my newly exposed breasts. I wanted to die, because, with my arms tied behind my back that way, it felt like I was offering up my breasts to him, and I was helpless to stop his lengthy, lusty stare. I prayed he would just look, and then I saw him lick his lips.
"I was right about your brown nipples. They seem hard, but they always seem that way. It must run in the family."
"Pervert," I snapped. (But at least he finally confirmed my suspicions that he wasn't as innocent as he portrayed. I'd also thought I'd caught him sneaking peeks at my mother's breasts as well.)
"But, let's see if they are hard," he said, and then he reached up and pinched my left nipple.
"Hey!" I cried out, but he moved over to the other one. This time he twisted. I was a little embarrassed that they were hard, but he was right, they are always like that, but I didn't want him to think I was turned on because I wasn't. I swear.
He leaned forward and took my right nipple into his mouth. I gasped (as much as it seemed to melt in his mouth), this was too much.
"I'll scream rape," I warned him.
He laughed evilly, "Better be a loud one." He moved to the other nipple. "No one home but my daughter, and I know you don't want that," he added, as he teased it with his tongue. "She'll just think you were crying from getting spanked, anyways."
He was probably right about that. "C'mon, stop it," I pleaded, suddenly feeling helpless and vulnerable.
"Plus, who says I'm going to fuck you, anyways?" he said, leaning back. He flicked my nipple with his finger. "I've just...never seen nipples like this. They have to be an inch long. My wife's were like these little bumps...but these...."
(His wife died about four or five years ago.)
I wasn't flattered. "Look, you've had your fun, but I'm scared."
(I'd looked down at his pants and noticed that they were tented in the front. I also wondered if it had been four or five years since he had been inside a woman. I knew I'd screwed up but didn't think it warranted being "screwed.")
"Scared? You're no virgin."
I didn't even have time to answer when I felt his finger rub and then quickly slide into my pussy. "See...."
"Dr. Smith!" I screamed out. (I wasn't a virgin, but had only had sex twice...and they were boys my age. Dr. Smith was a man -- one angry, fired-up, long-fingered man.) I tried to knee him, but he had me pinned good.
He added another finger and pumped away. He laughed when I finally let out a moan. "You say 'No,' but your body says 'Go!'" he teased.
I shook my head. It wasn't fair. He pushed me back and lifted both of my legs into the air, forcing me to lean back on my bound hands. He slowly spread my legs apart, farther and farther, until I was almost in a full split. He warned me with a stern look and a pinch of the thighs that I'd better keep them there.
"Ah, flexible," he teased, rubbing my calves. (Being a cheerleader, I'd done splits before, but, of course, never naked.)
He slowly moved his hands up my thighs. "Why am I not surprised that you have shaved your pussy clean? Not a pubic hair to be found."
God, it was so embarrassing. I started to say something, but I figured now wasn't a good time to inform him that it was his daughter's idea and her shaving job that he was so lustily admiring. Then he did the same thing his daughter did after she shaved me, he lowered his face and dove into my pussy. It was like he was trying to see how far he could bury his tongue inside me. Deeper and deeper his tongue drove.
"Oh god, long tongues must run in the family," I moaned inwardly, and then I couldn't hold back my outward moans when I felt his tongue dance around my clit. Back and forth it ran, each lap sending spasms shooting down my spine. I bit my tongue to try and suppress my moans. I didn't want to give him the audible pleasure.
I suddenly giggled, remembering I did the same thing when his daughter was eating my pussy (I'm so not a lesbian), and then I giggled thinking of the simple fact that I'd only had two people go down on me, and they both shared the same last name and the same gusto.
My case of the giggles went away as Dr. Smith added a finger to his tonguing, and then he reached up and started playing with a nipple. Well, his three simultaneous actions were now too much to fight, and in no time I found myself thrashing around on the table, lost in an orgasmic haze.
When my head cleared, I could see Dr. Smith wiping my pussy juice off his face with some leftover shirt pieces. He wore a sly grin. I looked away.
"Nothing to be embarrassed about girl," he said, rather freshly, as he sat back. I wanted to die once again. I mean this old dude just made me orgasm right in his face. I'll be honest; it felt good, really good, but still.... He didn't have to look so smug about it.
"Will you let me go now?" I asked, but deep down I knew the answer. (I mean, he had me tied up, naked, on his desk with my pussy on his breath, and he had a bad case of happy pants...so what are the chances that he's just going to let me go?)
He stood up and moved over in front of me. (I was lying on my side.) And then, in like slow motion, he starts to unzip his fly. (Oh God!) He fishes around inside before he pulls out his hard dick. I guess I should call it a "cock," because it was big and thick. I tried not to look, but.... I hadn't seen many, so curiosity took over. He was just standing there. It looked kind of neat just sticking out of his pants. I wondered what it would feel like inside me. I guess I had resigned to the fact that Dr. Smith was going to fuck me, whether I wanted it or not. I wasn't really scared, because I didn't think he'd really hurt me. I just wanted to get it over with.
He slowly moved closer, but he wasn't moving towards my legs, no, he was moving closer and closer to my face.
"I don't do that!" I cried out, slithering backward.
He laughed. I don't think he believed me...or maybe he didn't care. I tried to break free from my bonds once again, but he must have been a Boy Scout or something because I couldn't free my arms.
He reached out and grabbed a handful of hair. I locked my jaw shut. There was no way I was letting his penis get inside my mouth. He began rubbing his cock against my lips and over my face. I could tell that it was already leaking some sticky stuff. It was so gross. I was panicked.
"Please, Dr. Smith," I begged. "Fuck me. Fuck me now." (Just get that thing away from my face.)
"Really now," he said, while smacking his cock against my cheek. "I thought someone was going to scream rape."
"No, I won't. I promise."
"I know, because you want it, don't yah?"
"Yeah," I said, but I knew he was still taking advantage of me. There was no way I wanted this guy to do me like this, doctor or not. I wanted Kevin. I suddenly wondered if Kevin's cock was as big as Dr. Smith's. Maybe if I closed my eyes I could pretend. It was the best plan I could come up with. I spread my legs, offering myself to him, but Dr. Smith flipped me onto my stomach and slid me to the edge of the desk. It took a second or two before I realized why he did this.
"I thought you were going to fuck me."
"I am. I think I'll start with some face fucking," he said, as he pressed his cock against my lips. Harder and harder he pressed, until I had no choice but to open my mouth, and it was quickly invaded. Using my hair, he moved my head back and forth. I was just trying to breathe. Soon, there was saliva dripping everywhere. It was like he was trying to ram his cock all the way down my throat. I was gagging and gasping. He finally stopped and stepped back and this long piece of saliva strung from my mouth to his cock. With my hands bound, I couldn't even wipe my face. He stepped forward again.
"Please, I'll suck your cock," I gushed (thinking it had to be better then what I just went through).
"Really, he said with a smile. "First, you want to fuck...now, you want to suck."
"Ass-hole," I mumbled.
He chuckled, grabbing me by the arms, and then, in a surprise move, he ran a hand over my ass and scoped a couple of fingers into my pussy. Then, like a bowling ball, he picked me up off the table, before dropping me down on the floor.
"Gee, thanks," I said, shaking my head. I struggled to my knees. Dr. Smith was a couple of feet away taking off his pants. He must have been a neat freak because he folded them -- and his shirt -- neatly and placed them in the drawer with my stuff. He was in pretty good shape, surprisingly toned. He returned to his spot and folded his arms behind his back, with his cock standing up, proudly. I was a little confused at his intentions now.
I smacked my lips. It wasn't lost on me why he wanted this (I was his pet), but I did it. With my arms behind my back, it was more of a shuffle. I took some breaths, opened my jaw and slowly leaned forward, taking his cock into my mouth. (Kevin had asked for this earlier tonight, and I'd refused, and now I just couldn't believe I was sucking Dr. Smith's cock.) He stepped back a couple of minutes later. He didn't look happy. I tried to explain once again that I'd never done it before. He laughed and went to his desk again. When he came back, I gasped, seeing what he was carrying in his hand.
"I see you recognize it."
I certainly looked like his daughter's purple vibrator. (But what was he doing with it?)
I think he read my confused look, because he said. "I found it in a shoebox under her bed."
"What were you doing...?"
I didn't get a chance to even finish my question before he starts shouting. "I was looking for cigarettes or even drugs...it's a parents right. Plus, everything in that room I bought with my hard-earned cash." He moved over and grabbed me by the face and pressed in my cheeks. "Plus, I don't think I have to explain my parenting to you."
I shook free. He grabbed my hair and forced his cock back into my mouth. "That's it, suck me like your little toy here."

As Canada’s personal finance magazine, we provide practical advice on how to save money, build wealth and enjoy the things that really matter in life. But behind the complex calculations, we all have our own little adages we live by. Here are 8 tips that MoneySense staffers have learned over the years to keep, spend, earn and generally make the most of their money. We’d love to hear your tips, too. Share your thoughts in the comments below.
1. Keep getting smarter
A little personal finance learning can be a dangerous thing. Lots of people can master low-stress, low-fee, passive index investing. But a lot of us may be missing good opportunities when it comes to integrating annuities or tax planning into your overall strategy. More research or some qualified financial advice can help.
—David Thomas, Editor-in-Chief
2. Take advantage of free money
Employees often don’t take the time to understand their benefits package — or worse they overlook it altogether — potentially leaving thousands of dollars’ worth of free money on the table (in the form of pensions, RRSP contributions and stock option plans).
—Mark Brown, Senior Editor
3. Marry someone with money-sense
Be careful who you marry. That means making sure you’re financially compatible. If partners simply take the time to talk about their money habits as well as short and long-term goals, they will have a far better understanding of how their couple finances work and will benefit both of them. Getting a divorce could be the most expensive life event you ever have to deal with. Before you say “I do,” imagine your net worth being sliced in half. Yikes.
—Julie Cazzin, Senior Editor
4. Start your own vice fund
If you decide to quit a vice — like smoking or gambling — save the money you would have been spending on your bad habit. Set up a small weekly recurring deposit into an account outside your bank/credit union (like a Tangerine savings account). You won’t miss the money and you’ll be surprised how fast you start to save. Being a bit out of reach, you can’t dip into it needlessly.
—Taryn Dufault, Deputy Art Director
5. Rack up cash-back
Enjoy shopping online? Use a cash-back website such a Ebates.ca and get 2% to 12% cash back on the things you’d be buying anyway, on top of any online promotions and credit card perks available to you. Cash back is even available on select travel packages bought online. Every quarter you’ll get your cash-back cheque in the mail, no questions asked. It’s a no brainer.
—Stefania Di Verdi, Senior Editor, Digital
6. Pay for quality
It’s always wise to be frugal. But whether you’re shopping for a pair of jeans, a piece of furniture or a new kitchen knife, it’s not really a bargain if you end up having to replace it. If you can, try calculating the cost-per-use for a new purchase. A pair of $300 boots in a classic style can be a better deal than a $99 pair if you get more than three-times the wear. Plus, I guarantee you can’t get those $99 boots re-soled.
—David Fielding, Deputy Editor
7. If you can’t afford it, don’t buy it
Mine’s simple. Credit cards are for convenience, not for spending money you don’t have.
—David Hodges, Senior Editor
8. Stay organized
The best money tip I’ve ever gotten is to be organized! Make a spreadsheet (or use an app or other service) for your monthly budget and yearly savings and have a plan. Even if you occasionally deviate from it, at least you’ll know where you stand instead of blindly wielding your debit card or making minimum payments and hoping for the best.

Hey my fellow food fanatics! I’m back yet again with another great ‘budget friendly’ NYC restaurant pick. This week we feature Bubby’s Restaurant in Tribeca. I had the opportunity to eat there about a month ago for my friend Leia’s birthday, and it was AWESOME! Ok so let me begin, I had never heard of Bubby’s until Leia said that was were we would be meeting her for dinner. To much of my excitement she mentioned it was on Hudson Street in Tribeca, which im obsessed with anyway. I got to the restaurant before my friends to scope the place out, and it reminds you of being in a North Carolina, down home country diner, I mean just listen to the name!
It’s very cozy, warm, and “Martha Stewart” meets country fried chicken..get the picture? Anyhow let’s get to the best part, the FOOD! The place has a great menu of simple classics mixed up with a little mexican flavor. My fave was the Chicken burritos, and the salsa dip soup. Since it was Leia’s big day we of course secretly told our waitress, and she brought out the most delicious chocolate peanut butter pie that I EVER ate! This was all that remained…
Yeah so, not only was there mouth watering pies, they even have a vintage photo booth in the basement, which we of course could not resist to take some silly photos in…
So in conclusion, Im going to keep it simple, Bubby’s ROCKS! And everyone should visit this great place in the heart of Trendy Tribeca.
120 Hudson Street (N Moore Street)

Tasou Mitsopoulou, Makenzie, 24201700, LARNACA, Monday – Sunday 9am – 1am.
Seafood near the sea. That just about does it. I’m not really fond of Makenzie area, especially with all the fuss in the summertime, but maybe the idea to go there now, could be… intriguing? Almar Seafood Bar is the new arrival in Larnaca, located in the hot spot of Larnaca and it is all about fish. Options on the menu include fresh fish, oysters, ceviche, pasta, fancy salads and dips.

The Sunburn music festival, Asia’s largest Electronic Music event, is a three-day event that keeps music and dance fans on their toes. This electrifying music and dance festival is a much-anticipated event filled of fun, excitement, and enchantment. Sunburn Goa honors music, dance, gastronomy, and emerging artists. Musicians from all around the world participate in the event and plan for it all year. The festival began in 2007, and it has since become a world-renowned musical event. Sunburn Goa is the world’s third largest music event, behind Ultra and Tomorrowland.
History of Sunburn Festival in Goa
The festival was initially established in 2007, and it has become an annual event since since. Goa . The idea of the festival was conceived and conceptualized by Nikhil Chinapa and Percept entertainment with a motive to create and provide a platform for budding and popular artists to showcase their talent under the shining stars and by the serenity of a beach. Sunburn Festival has a massive stage where concerts take place and star performers play.
The atmosphere during the performance and in the evening is just enchanting, which is a draw for many guests. Vagator beach had been the festival’s location for many years till it was relocated to Pune in 2016.

To be honest, Tiesto’s latest single „Light Years Away“ performs a little bit under the radar for me. I don’t know where this comes from because the song is actually really strong and the original also comes in very well-produced, but maybe it’s because there’s so much music like this on the market that it’s just nothing special for me. I don’t know…
Apart from that, Tiesto has just released a massive remix package for the single. The main theme and DBX’ vocals are well presented in all of these new versions. Check out the mixes by Oliver Heldens, Skyden, Tiesto himself or the great Deep House variation by Hey Hey:
„Light Years Away (Remixes)“ is available here.

Last legislative session, we launched a campaign called Rescue Five-O. The initiative involved introducing shelter reform legislation, modeled after the Companion Animal Protection Act, in states across the country. Legislation we know is necessary for two reasons: first, shelters are killing animals needlessly despite ready available lifesaving alternatives and we need to force them to employ the alternatives. And second, even those shelters which are doing the right thing need legislation to make sure they keep doing so indefinitely, that the next director can’t undo the progress of the current one, as we have also seen.
As in any effort involving legislative endeavors, there is good news and bad news. The good news is that we succeeded in introducing legislation in six states: Florida, Virginia, Georgia, New York, West Virginia, and Minnesota. We also expect it to be introduced in others shortly. We’ve succeeded in educating many legislators about what is really happening behind the closed door of the animal shelter and the need to regulate them (We sent a copy of Redemption and a packet on shelter reform to every legislator in every state). We created tools to empower the grassroots, including a guide to political advocacy, a guide to passing humane legislation, a guide on both CAPA and rescue rights laws, and more. We’ve forced organizations like Alley Cat Allies and Best Friends to take sides and stand up to regressive organizations like the ASPCA. And we’ve made shelter reform laws one of the defining issues of our movement.
Of course the bad news is that we’ve not had legislation pass this session. It was tabled in Virginia and Georgia. It is stalled in West Virginia and Minnesota. And with the end of a shortened legislative session due to redistricting in Florida, our efforts there will also not be successful this year. In New York, we’ve been focused on fighting the Quick Kill bill, exactly as the ASPCA and their proxy, Assemblywoman Amy Paulin, had intended.
And while these results aren’t good news, they aren’t dire either if we take a more comprehensive view. We are being opposed by the ASPCA, which is not only fighting us in New York, but is subsidizing some of our opposition in other states. They’ve also introduced their own bill in that state, which has had the intended effect of our mobilization shifting its focus from passing our own bill to fighting theirs. In Florida, as in Texas last year, HSUS joined the opposition in criticizing our bill. And, the “slaughterhouse workers” at PETA have gotten involved, urging their supporters to send letters of opposition and even holding a press conference to condemn our legislation.
But each time they do, it gives us a platform to educate legislators, to educate the media, to educate the public at large about who and what these groups really are, what they stand for (it’s not the animals), and what is happening to the animals. And with any legislation, on any issue that is opposed by the status quo, it takes time. When you are working to change the status quo, it is easy to become discouraged. Sometimes, it can feel like you are banging your head against a brick wall that will never, ever move, despite how hard you push on it, especially when your opposition is big, powerful, wealthy, and seemingly invincible. And yet history shows us that the people who prevailed in transforming our world for the better and who we now regard as heroes in the ongoing struggle for greater justice, once faced the same seemingly insurmountable odds and obstacles that we do. We can see that while they may have felt that they were pushing against an impenetrable wall, with each push they were creating fractures and fissures that, in the end, destroyed the structural integrity of the wall they were bashing, and ultimately brought a seemingly solid monolith tumbling down. At this point in our movement, when our enemy is still so powerful, so pervasive, and still retains unwarranted credibility with many people, we must learn to celebrate those fractures and fissures, to recognize their meaning, to feel empowered by their significance, and to exploit them to the fullest extent possible.
There is no doubt that the obstacles we face are great. But not as great as the obstacles faced by other movements in history. Not only did they have to fight the status quo, they also had to fight the public’s prejudice which sustained it. In other words, they first needed to win the hearts and minds of the American public. And still they prevailed. This is an obstacle we do not face. Thankfully, the public is increasingly aware of just how broken our shelter system is and supports the No Kill alternative. 96% of Americans—almost every single person—believe we have a moral obligation to protect animals and that we should have strong laws to do so. Indeed, the average American is far more progressive about dogs and cats than every animal welfare and animal rights organization in the United States, with rare exception. The success of No Kill does not depend on winning the hearts and minds of the American public. We don’t need to gain their support because we have it already. And that makes our prognosis for success that much better.
In the last three years, not only did we succeed in passing shelter reform in Delaware, we’ve had it introduced in many states, forcing the pro-killing national organizations like HSUS, the ASPCA, and PETA to fight us across the country, exposing them for who and what they are, while tens of thousands of animal lovers become educated, mobilized, and political, flooding their legislators with calls for support. We can’t underestimate the psychological impact this has on regressive shelters and equally regressive national organizations. They must feel under siege and at odds with an increasingly informed and savvy animal-loving American public, who they rely on to remain ignorant in order to take their money under false pretenses.
So take heart. Anything worth fighting for takes time. Our legislative setbacks are part of the process. And while succeeding in the short-term is the ideal, it is also unrealistic. If we take the long-view, we are right on track for where we need to be, what we need to be doing, and where we need to be going.

Scientific research by RIVM’s Guus Velders stood partly at the basis of the HFC global climate agreement. This agreement was closed on Friday, October 14th in Kigali (Rwanda) to reduce the use of HKFs. The use of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), has increased substantially in recent years since they are used as substitutes for ozone depleting substances (such as CFCs) in refrigerators, air conditioners and insulation materials.
Researchers from knowledge institutes, including RIVM, previously concluded that, without measures, the contribution of HFCs to global warming would lead up to 0.5 degrees Celsius in the year 2100. Implementing the just signed agreement global warming will be limited to less than 0.1 degrees Celsius. Calculations by RIVM also show that the contribution of HFCs on the greenhouse effect could mount to 10 percent of the main greenhouse gas CO2 by the year 2050.
Reducing the use of ozone depleting substances is set out in the 1987 Montreal Protocol. The use of some ozone depleting substances has been banned worldwide, while the use of other substances will also be reduced further in the coming decades. HFCs are used as alternatives because they do not deplete the ozone layer. However, they do contribute to the greenhouse effect. With the closure of the new agreement, the Montreal Protocol intended for protecting the ozone layer, will be adapted to protect the climate.
Paris Climate Agreement
With the now signed agreement, the Montreal Protocol is the first binding global treaty with concrete commitments for all countries for far reaching reduction of HFC use. This addresses a part of the climate problem. The agreement thus contributes to the 2 degrees target of the Paris Climate Agreement of December 2015. It is important to realise that HFCs currently contribute to less than 1 percent to the greenhouse effect and thus particularly preventing their growth with the agreement. This in contrast to the greenhouse gas CO2, which is currently contributing more than 70 percent to the greenhouse effect.
Existing arrangements for HFCs
Certain steps have already been taken in recent years. In 2014 new regulations were adopted in the European Union regarding limitation of the use of HFCs. Similar regulations came into force in the US and Japan since 2015. These agreements only partly reduce the global use of HFCs, as in the coming years strong growth is expected in developing countries such as China and India. In the now closed agreement developing countries also need to take action.

Well, now we all know Barbra Streisand is a sexist and apparently thinks it's still 1951.
And they wonder why so many women don't want to be feminists.
Gosh, I can't even with this stuff, you guys.
So many women claim they want to be treated exactly like men, but when they're treated exactly like men, suddenly they miss chivalry.
If we've learned anything from Kanyegate (is that what we're calling it? I need a name), it's that the Democrats do not like it when anyone breaks free from their voter plantation.

Wading into one of the most divisive arguments to come before the Louisiana Legislature this session, the East St. Tammany Chamber of Commerce adopted a resolution last week urging lawmakers to override Gov. Bobby Jindal's veto of the tobacco tax renewal.
The Chamber's resolution points out that tobacco tax renewal provided $12 million to the state and that much of the tax revenue went to health care funding. It says the Chamber cannot support any more cuts to revenue streams without first having a replacement for that revenue.
"... to veto measures which continue to provide existing revenue in a time of crisis such as we find ourselves now, makes no sense whatsoever,'' the Chamber's resolution, adopted June 15, said. "This is compounded by the fact that the current administration has also pledged to veto any new revenue streams which can, in any way, be construed as new taxes or new fees. This combination essentially puts Louisiana in a fight for economic development against other southern states with one hand tied behind our back.''
This from a group in a parish that has been staunchly pro-Jindal.
"Be it resolved that the East St. Tammany Chamber of Commerce, residing in arguably the most fiscally conservative parish in Louisiana, and governed by an equally arguably conservative board, strongly opposes Governor Jindal's veto of the tobacco tax renewal, and asks all legislators throughout the state to stand up for our ability to improve economic development and override Governor Jindal's veto.''
The House of Representatives on Thursday failed to get enough votes to override the veto.

As one grows older, it is difficult for their body to hold on by time and such physical changes are inevitable. The poet has dramatized his approach here with these examples of wear and tear in order to lure the attention of the readers to understand these descriptions in depth. Byron tries to put forward to the reader that no one can dodge these corporal transformations and they are bound to happen eventually.

To further his education, Byron began to study at Dulwich, Harrow, and finally at Cambridge. By 1802, Byron was consumed with debt and accused of bisexual love affairs (Lord Byron 3). Bryon moved home to Newstead, where he first met his half-sister, Augusta Leigh, with whom he was suspected of having an incestuous relationship. (Lord Byron 3). Lord Byron's first collection of poems, Hours of Idleness, appeared in 1807 (Lord Byron 5). His poems were ravenously attacked by Henry Broughman in the Edinburgh Review.

He believed that no shackles should be placed on love; it should be natural, and indeed this is how, to some extent, he does portray the love which blossoms here, though not as much as Juan's later relationship with Haide�, 'unconsciously she leaned upon [Juan]...' So, Byron shows us that Julia is aware of the wrongness of her impending deed, but he does not condemn her. Indeed it could be argued that Byron presents her infidelity as sweet and innocent in itself.

How far are current interpretations of Newstead accurate reflections of what it may have been like in 1871?
The famous skull cup has been reproduced. Mrs Webb can be blamed for a lot of the original hype around Byron because she was a fanatic. She insisted on burying the skull cup in the grounds of the Abbey, she collected his memorabilia and sold her house on the fact that Byron lived there. The Library is full of Byron artefacts, including paintings of him, his books and even a lock of his hair, these have been put there by the Nottingham City Council, attempting to attract even more custom by making out that Byron was the soul founder of Newstead and that it was this wonderful and opulent when he was there.

Compare and contrast the declaration of admiration by Lord Byron ‘She Walks in Beauty’ and the declaration of love by John Clare ‘First Love’
Clare was married and had several children. Clare spent his last 23 years in an asylum. His poetry is mostly about natural scenery and country life. He is the only poet who shows through his poetry how sensitive the English countryside is and the intimate experience of the English countryside. Byron's 'She Walks in Beauty' was written about his cousin's wife when he saw her in a black dress. He was fascinated by her so he wrote this poem for her. Byron's poem aims to show how he was amazed by the woman he describes.

Rage Becomes Her: The Power of Women’s Anger by Soraya Chemaly; recommended by Sarah Wingo, Librarian for English Literature, Theatre, and Romance Languages and Literature
Chemaly argues that women have been urged for long to bottle up our anger. It corrodes our bodies and minds in ways we don’t even realize. But she tells us that women’s anger is not only justified, but an active part of the solution to sexism and damaging gender norms in society.
She’s intentional in making anger a vital instrument for progress, and a catalyst for change.
Bustle writes that Rage Becomes Her is an “utterly eye opening” book that gives voice to the causes, expressions, and possibilities of female rage.

The Wind in the Leaves
El viento en las hojas
The sound of the wind rustling in the leaves is the ritornelo that runs through these stories. It whispers of life and death, of the inexorable passing of time and of a life’s settlements, but also of the sensuality of bodies and the enigmas of desire. This musical motif accompanies the slow movement of two old people who face the crueltyof a young woman of insulting beauty, approaching the revolving door of an old café, where boys and girls enter;or a man who observes and analyses the secret beauty of a woman while another woman announces her impending death to her life-long friends. Literature to read slowly, to savour and enjoy, to pay attention to that which is said and lived and vice-versa; literature to accompany our lives with the power of words, which some will say, and others will refuse to speak.

Rediscovering The Beauty Of Moshe Safdie’s Habitat 67
Created by the Israeli-Canadian architect Moshe Safdie, Habitat 67 is the Canadian Pavilion for the Earth Exposition of 1967. Located in Montreal, Quebec, the creating was initially intended as an fresh answer for supreme quality property in thick downtown environments. The task is designed as a prefabricated three-dimensional modular building program that will be how most people see the building.
But, David Brittain, a excited architecture shooter has grabbed through his lens contemporary shots that make people see Habitat 67 in a fresh light. Brittain describes that he wants to reveal the progress and historical richness of this excellent fresh challenge, as opposed to shooting popular modern architectural photos. Brittain is using these photographs for his exhibition called ‘Revisited: Habitat 67 (visit the site) ', that will be element of an address plan that explores structure and present buildings.
While David Brittain objective was to utilize the collection to reflect on the existing state of contemporary architectural images, he has achieved several findings about the area he was photographing. Throughout his perform, he noticed that Routine 67's modular style is really a very flexible and versatile space. He has additionally discovered that Habit 67's inhabitants continually modify the usage of personal and community areas to accommodate their various needs. His images embrace the aging of the space which effects from years of regular use.


Nigeria recorded a massive drop in the amount of electricity generated within the country on Sunday, leading to a widespread blackout in the southeast region of the country.
The Enugu Electricity Distribution Company (EDDC) announced a system collapse on Sunday, leading to blackouts in Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu, and Imo states.
According to data from the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN), Nigeria’s energy generation crashed by 18.8% on Sunday, 12th June 2022 to 68,856.37 megawatt-hours (MWh) from 84,757.11MWh generated on Saturday, and 78,596.91MWh generated on Friday, 10th June 2022.
Furthermore, the energy supplied to distribution companies nosedived by 18.8% to 67,790MWh compared to 85,524.39MWh that was supplied the previous day. A further look at the data showed that peak generation rose to 3,703MW, while off-peak generation slummed to only 9MW. Also, the highest frequency for the day was 51.17Hz, while the lowest frequency was 48.4Hz.
What EEDC said
According to the Head of Corporate Communications of the Enugu Electricity Distribution Company (EEDC), Mr. Emeka Ezeh, the system collapse occurred at around 6.49 pm on Sunday, which is only one of the several reported grid collapses recorded so far in the year.
“As a result of this development, all our outgoing feeders are out. This has affected supply to our customers in Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu, and Imo states. We are on standby, awaiting further information on [the] restoration of supply from the National Control Centre (NCC),” he said.
It should be recalled that this is not the first grid shutdown in the year as Nigerians continue to grapple with epileptic power supply. This has greatly affected business operations in the country as businesses are now forced to find alternative sources of electricity to meet up with their daily deliverables.
Despite reports that the country has the capacity to generate 8,000MW of electricity even though it is currently finding it hard to keep production levels above 3,000MW, businesses within the country need to consider solar or fuel-powered sources of electricity if they are to ensure seamless business operations.


Court annuls Prashant's marriageApr 30, 2009 IANS
Chennai, April 30 (IANS) A family court here Thursday annulled the marriage of Tamil film star Prashant and his polyandrous wife and granted custody of their daughter to the latter.
A family court annulled the marriage between Prashant and his estranged wife Gruhalakshmi following allegations of polyandry on her part.
The court, however, turned down a plea from Prashant for custody of their child saying the actor had no locus standi to seek the offspring from a marriage that has been annulled.
Gruhalakshmi had sued for divorce alleging dowry harassment.
Actor Prashant had wed Gruhalakshmi amidst great fanfare in 2005. The divorce petition began soon during the pregnancy on charges of dowry harassment.
Prashant denied the charges saying his in-laws were attempting to hide their daughter's earlier marriage.
Meanwhile, a divorce petition filed by another man whose 1998 marriage with Gruhalakshmi has been established in court is pending.
In a career spanning over 18 years, Prashant has been featured as a leading man in 40 films so far that include "Jeans" (1998) an Indian entry to the Oscars in which his female co-star was Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.

Valence bands offset between depleted semiconductors measured by photoelectron spectroscopy
A modified method to measure the valence bands offset by photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) between low doped and depleted semiconductors have been used. The surface photovoltage (SPV) and the charging effects modify the PES spectra of depleted semiconductors. The valence bands offset at the heterojunction of depleted ZnSe film and doped GaAs substrate have been measured. These samples were prepared by the laser ablation technique. The shift of PES spectra of ZnSe by about 6 eV has been observed due to the charging and SPV effects. The charging and SPV effects on PES spectra, have been reduced to negligible values in the presence of excess plasma (due to absorption from a secondary white light source) density of the order of 10(18) cm(-3). The effect of the charging and SPV is very small on the value of the valence bands offset measured in the presence of the excess plasma. This method to measure the valence bands offset is useful for samples prepared in ex situ conditions and with film thickness of the order of 100 nm. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

It’s ALCS time, and it’s also time for a rare MLB pick!
As I mentioned in Thursday’s week 6 NFL picks, I’m live from Vegas this week so I’m hanging out in sports books and gambling more than usual. Since I’ve got the time I decided to handicap the ALCS.
It’s Kluber vs Estrada. Kluber has been the Ace of the Cleveland staff, and he’s coming off a 7 inning, 3 hit W. According to ESPN Stats, Corey Kluber has a .281 / .333 / .490 / .823 line against Blue Jay batters lifetime, vs a .281 / .339 / .649 / .988 line for Estrada. Kluber beat Toronto in his last start against them, although it was at home & he’s 1-1 against them with the loss in July. Estrada is 1-0 against Cleveland this year.
I think Estrada can be hit easier, so I’m going with Cleveland winning by 1.5 and over 7.5 runs total.
Good luck out there!
