This data set provides coordinates for points at the mouth of tributaries of the Acre River in the Tri-national River Basin in South America. Three Global Positioning System (GPS) readings were made at the outlet of each tributary and the average of the three readings is reported.
The Tri-national River Basin is located in the tri-national frontier region of Madre de Dios, Peru, Acre, Brazil, and Pando, Bolivia (known as the MAP region). The MAP region is approximately 300,000 km2. The Acre River flows through Brazil, Bolivia, and Peru. Data on the basin drainage network from the Digital Elevation Model (DEM) Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) was obtained as a source of information for the border areas. The GPS readings were part of an assessment of the reliability of the DEM/SRTM drainage network data (Maldonadoae and Brown, 2003).
There is one data file in comma-delimited (.csv) format and one compamion file (.pdf) with this data set.
DATA QUALITY STATEMENT: This data set provides GPS coordinates only and is not associated with any additional measurements. There is no associated research documentation.

These data were used to analyze the reliability of the hydrographic data of Digital Elevation Model (DEM/SRTM), 2000 (Maldonadoae and Brown, 2003).
The Tri-national River Basin is located in the tri-national frontier region of Madre de Dios, Peru, Acre, Brazil, and Pando, Bolivia (known as the MAP region) and is one of the few tri-national basins in Brazil. The eastern part of the tri-national basin has the Santa Quiteria extractive settlement, the central part has small ranches. The southeastern area is an Indian reserve in Bolivia and the southwestern area has logging in Peru. The basin is a water source for over 250 thousand people that live in the basin (Maldonado, 2007). The Acre River flows through Brazil, Bolivia, and Peru and is about 400 miles long.
Three GPS readings were made at the outlet of each tributary of the Acre River, and the average coordinate is reported in this data set. The GPS readings were part of an assessment of the reliability of the DEM/SRTM drainage network data (Maldonadoae and Brown, 2003). The projection used for the coordinates was UTM WGS 84, UTM 19S.

The Bookworm-A Little Less Love for Love and War
A look into the second installment of the Alex and Eliza trilogy

"I am not throwing away my shot / I am not throwing away my shot / Hey yo, I'm just like my country / I'm young, scrappy and hungry / And I'm not throwing away my shot."
After Melissa de la Cruz's release of Alex and Eliza (see "The Bookworm-A Lovely Love Story"- https://millardwestcatalyst.com/2917/entertainment/the-bookworm-a-lovely-love-story/
), fans such as myself have eagerly awaited the second book of this Hamilton-inspired series which recounts the love story between Alexander Hamilton and Elizabeth Schuyler, and Cruz delivered with the publication of Love and War: An Alex and Eliza Story.
The book takes place where its predecessor left off. Alex and Eliza are happily married, currently living at the home of Eliza's parents, the Pastures, during the thick of the Revolutionary War. The first bump in their marriage occurs when Alex finally receives a commission to lead troops into battle, one of his major life ambitions. However, he makes the mistake of waiting until the night before his departure to convey this news to his wife.
Needless to say, the two do not part on the best of terms.
Eliza is left at home with her family spending every waking moment worrying about Alex as he leads his troops into battle at Yorktown. Consequently, the Continental Army emerges victorious, effectively winning the war for the colonies' independence and ending Part One of the novel.
"After the war I went back to New York / A-After the war I went back to New York / I finished up my studies and I practiced law / I practiced law, Burr worked next door."
Part Two picks up with Alex and Eliza moving into a townhouse in New York City where Eliza attempts to establish a home and Alex his own law practice. Both work to climb their way to the top of the new country's social ladder creating a name for themselves.
But transitions are hard.
Money is needed and Alex's reputation as a lawyer rests on his success with his first case. It doesn't take long for tension to return to the Hamilton's relationship or for my interest to fade.
When I saw this book on the shelf at Books-a-Million, I couldn't wait to read it, but it was a bit of a let down.
Much of the action in Part One was drawn out and overly described. The chapters detailing the battle of Yorktown had the potential to captivate the audience, but instead they left me skimming over them in search of a more exciting section. It was difficult to make a connection with Alex during this part as there was more description of his surroundings than what he was feeling. It was hard to insert myself into the action; thus the excitement of the scene was lost.
Part Two was just as slow.
While friction is present between Alex and Eliza, it takes awhile for it to build up. Once the heat of the problem finally reaches a boiling point, it is quickly solved with the turn of a page, making the reader question if everything that came before was just unnecessary drama. Drama could have been well built-up and led to an exciting complex solution, but the abruptness of it makes the conflict seem weak and frivolous.
There were positive aspects to Love and War. Cruz's vivid descriptions added greatly to the story in Part Two when Alex and Eliza were filling their home with everyday needs. Cruz takes the time to describe everything-from the China to the paintings to the silver- allowing the reader to fully visualize what it would be like to step through the doors of the Hamilton home.
Although the plot is weak, the characters are not.
Eliza remains the simple and strong women complimenting Alex's determination and strong-will. Cruz inserts the reader into the mind of both characters by continuing her pattern of alternating chapters between Eliza and Alex's point of view. Familiar faces such as Eliza's sisters, Angelica and Peggy, and new ones such as neighbor and rival lawyer Aaron Burr add to the diverse mix of well-developed characters bringing with them witty dialogue that helps keep the story moving during its slower moments.
Love and War isn't the best book I have ever read, but it isn't the worst. If you were a fan of Alex and Eliza, I would recommend you read this if only to get caught up on the series. Just be aware that you will be enjoying it because of the reunion with beloved characters and descriptions of the Hamilton's new life, not because of intriguing drama and conflict.
The final installment of this trilogy will be released in the spring of 2019, hopefully returning to the quality of the first.

Osvaldo Golijov (* 5. prosince 1960) je argentinsko-izraelský představitel současné klasické hudby.

Životopis
Osvaldo Golijov se narodil v židovské rodině. Vyrůstal v La Platě v Argentině. Jeho rodina se do Argentiny přistěhovala ve 20. letech 20. století. Golijova matka, učitelka klavíru, byla rumunského původu. Otec pocházel z Ukrajiny a byl lékař.

Již v mladí se projevil jeho zájem o hudbu, obzvláště o komorní klasickou hudbu, židovskou liturgii a klezmer. Studoval hru na klavír v laplatské konzervatoři a kompozici s Gerardem Gandinim.

Roku 1983 se přestěhoval do Izraele, kde společně s Markem Kopytmanem studoval v jeruzalémské Rubinově Akademii. Zde si důkladně všímal křížení různých hudebních tradic. Roku 1985 se oženil se Silvií Golijovou a rok nato se přestěhoval do Spojených států. Tam získal doktorát na Pensylvánské univerzitě. Zde studoval společně s americkým skladatelem Georgem Crumbem.

Na začátku 90. let započal svou spolupráci s dvěma hudebními tělesy: Kronos kvartetem a St. Lawrence String quartetem.

Roku 2002 EMI vydala Yiddishbbuk na oslavu Golijovi desetileté spolupráce se St. Lawrence String Quartet pod vedením klarinetisty Todda Palmera. Hudební nosič byl nominován na cenu Grammy v kategorii komorní hudba.

Ve spolupráci s Kronos kvartetem byly vydány tři nahrávky: The Dreams a Prayes of Isaac the Blind se slavným klezmerovým klarinetistou Davidem Krakauerem, Caravan a Nuevo. Kronos kvartet šířil Golijovu hudbu také prostřednictvím spolupráce s různými slavnými interprety jako s rumunskou cikánskou kapelou Taraf de Haidouks, mexickým rokovým uskupením Café Tacuba, Zakir Hussain a legendárním argentinským skladatelem, kytaristou a producentem Gustavem Santaolallou, se kterým Golijov průběžně spolupracoval na mnoha rozmanitých projektech.

Za posledních sedm let Golijov, inspirován sopránem Dawn Upshaw, zkomponoval několik prací, zahrnující Three Songs for Soprano and Orchestra, operu Ainamadar, cyklus Ayre a mnoho dalších populárních písní.

Premiéra La Pasión según San Marcos roku 2000 vyvolala bouři. Byla hrána na Festivalu evropské hudby u příležitosti 250. výročí úmrtí Johanna Sebastiana Bacha. Speciálně pro tuto skladbu Golijov angažoval perkusionistu Mikaela Ringguista pod taktovkou Marie Guinand. Hudební nosič této nahrávky pod značkou Hänssler Classic obdržel cenu Grammy a nominaci na Latin Grammy roku 2002.

Pro premiéru Ayre založil Golijov další hvězdné uskupení: The Andalucian Dogs. Se zpěvačkou Dawn Upshaw měla opera premiéru v Zankel Hall a nahrávka této skladby, vydaná Deutsche Grammophon, byla roku 2005 nominována na Grammy.

O rok později vydala stejná společnost Ainamadar, opět s Dawn Upshaw[role Margarity Xirgu]. Kelly O'Connor[jako Federico Garsia Lorca] a Jessica Rivera[jako Nuria] zpívaly další hlavní role a Atlantský symfonický sbor a orchestr řídil Robert Spano, který s Golijovem úzce spolupracoval již celé desetiletí. Nahrávka obdržela dvě ocenění Grammy: za nejlepší operní nahrávku a nejlepší soudobou skladbu.

Golijov obdržel velké množství zakázek od vedoucích hudebních uskupení a společností v USA i Evropě. Úzce spolupracuje s dirigentem Miguelem Harth-Bedoyou aAlanem Gilbertem, zpěvačkami Lucianou Souzou, Alexandrou Montano a Biellou da Costa, čelisty Yo-Yo Ma, Mayou Beiser, Alisou Weilerstein a Mattem Haimovitzem, Kayhanem Kalhorem, bubeníkem Jameyem Haddadem a mnoha dalšími. Spolupracuje s hudebními tělesy jako Atlantský, Bostonský, Chicagský symfonický orchestr. Jeho hudba je hrána na mnoha festivalech.V lednu 2006 Lincolnovo Centrum představilo vyprodaný festival s názvem THE PASSION OF OSVALDO GOLIJOV, kde jeho práci předvedlo mnoho umělců, hrála se jeho komorní hudba, tango a klezmer. Londýnský Barbican Centre Golijově hudbě věnoval dva večery na počátku roku 2006 a Atlantský symfonický orchestr hraje jeho hudbu po celou sezónu.

Nyní pracuje na koncertě pro violoncello a orchestr názvem Azul, pro Yo-Yo Ma a Bostonský symf. orchestr. Dále skládá hudbu k filmu Francise Ford Coppoly Mládí bez mládí [Youth Without Youth]. Dále pracuje na zakázce pro Chicagský s. orchestr Rose of the Winds s dirigentem M. Harth-Beyovou.

Klezmer-pojem užívaný pro určité odvětví židovského folkloru, mající kořeny ve východní Evropě a chasidismu. Původní klezmeři/klezmerium/ byli nájemní židovští hudebníci, hrající na židovských svatbách a při jiných slavnostních příležitostech. Hudební projev byl zpravidla improvizovaný, kapelu tvořily smyčce, cimbál a buben, později se připojila harmonika. Tato židovská hudební tradice téměř zanikla díky holocaustu druhé světové války, američtí emigranti tradiční žid. hudbu opouštěli, a tak dochází ke splynutí s hudbou populární a jazzovou/ Gerswin/. Obrození klezmeru nastává v 80. letech 20. století díky tvůrcům jako Michael Alpert či kapele Klezmatics aj.
 Jessica Rivera – sopranistka, která zazářila svým debutem na světové premiéře Ainamadaru v létě 2005 v roli Nurie.

Ramos v. Semple
JOSE E. RAMOS, Plaintiff,
SCOTT SEMPLE, Defendant.
RULING ON WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS
VICTOR A. BOLDEN UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
Jose E. Ramos ("Petitioner"), a state prisoner currently confined at the MacDougall-Walker Correctional Institution in Suffield, Connecticut, filed an amended petition[1] for writ of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2254, challenging his state conviction for murder, in violation of Conn. Gen. Stat. § 53a-54a. Amended Petition, ECF No. 12-1 ("Am. Pet.").
Mr. Ramos raises four claims: (1) his state imprisonment is illegal because he is "legally sovereign, free, and immune from all claims and charges;" (2) his arrest was illegal because the name on the warrant was Jose E. Ramos and his actual name is Jose Eric Ramos; (3) his conviction violates an international treaty; and (4) the state trial court lacked jurisdiction over him because he is "a living soul, breathing man, not a corporate fiction." Id. at 5-10.
The Commissioner of the Connecticut Department of Corrections ("Commissioner")[2] has responded, contending that Mr. Ramos has failed to exhaust his state court remedies on any of these claims, and that, even if he had, each of the claims is frivolous. Respondent's Response to Court's Order to Show Cause, ECF No. 22 ("Resp't Resp.").
Mr. Ramos's reply appears to be a more detailed memorandum on his claims that does not address his failure to exhaust. Petitioner's Response to Respondent's Response to Court's Order to Show Cause, ECF No. 31 ("Reply").
For the following reasons, Mr. Ramos's amended petition for a writ of habeas corpus is DENIED.
Following a criminal trial, a jury convicted Mr. Ramos of murder and he received a prison sentence of sixty years. State v. Ramos, 178 Conn.App. 400, 403 (2017), Respondent Appendix, ECF No. 22 ("Resp't App."), Ex. C.
Mr. Ramos appealed his conviction and raised four claims: (1) there was insufficient evidence to support his conviction; (2) the trial court erred in failing to suppress evidence of his post-Miranda[3] silence; (3) the trial court committed plain error by admitting prior misconduct evidence; and (4) he was deprived of his right to due process as a result of prosecutorial impropriety. Ramos, 178 Conn.App. at 402. The Connecticut Appellate Court rejected all four of Mr. Ramos's claims and affirmed the conviction. Id.
The Connecticut Supreme Court later denied discretionary review, State v. Ramos, 327 Conn. 1003 (2018), Resp't App. E, ECF No. 22-5, and the United States Supreme Court denied Mr. Ramos's petition for writ of certiorari. See Ramos v. Connecticut, 138 S.Ct. 2656 (2018), Resp't App., Ex. G.
While his direct appeal was pending, Mr. Ramos filed a petition for a new trial under Conn. Gen. Stat. § 52-270. Pet. for New Trial, Resp't App., Ex. H. Mr. Ramos claimed that one of the state's witnesses had testified while she was under the influence of psychedelic substances. Id.
Mr. Ramos also filed a petition for writ of habeas corpus in state court. Ramos v. Comm'r of Corr., No. TSR-CV-16-4008151-S (Conn. Super Ct. June 27, 2016), Resp't App., Ex. I.
On September 7, 2018, Mr. Ramos filed a motion to correct an allegedly illegal sentence in state court because he "is not the defendant named in the charging instrument, " and the trial court therefore lacked jurisdiction over him. Motion to Correct Illegal Sentence, Resp't App., Ex. J. Mr. Ramos argued that he is a "sovereign [who] is answerable only to God and conscience." See Id. at 11. The trial court denied his motion, finding no legal basis to correct the sentence imposed. State v. Ramos, No. KNLCR120119499 (Strackbein, J.), 2018 WL 5786064 (Conn. Super. Ct. Oct. 16, 2018), Resp't App., Ex. Mr. Ramos appealed the denial of his motion, which remains pending. See State v. Ramos, No. AC42330 (Conn. App. Nov. 26, 2018).
         On December 7, 2018, Mr. Ramos moved to consolidate the petition for new trial and habeas petition for trial purposes, which the state court granted. See Ramos v. State, No. TTD-CV16-5012323 ...

Q: ServiceStack OrmLite create table with [AutoIncrement] fail I am using ServiceStack version="3.9.54" targetFramework="net40" with PostgreSQL.\
When i create table with
public class test
{
    [AutoIncrement]
    public int id { get; set; }
    public string test_name { get; set; }

}

dbConn.CreateTable<test>(true);

CREATE TABLE test
(
  id serial NOT NULL,
  test_name text,
  CONSTRAINT test_pkey PRIMARY KEY (id)
)
WITH (
  OIDS=FALSE);

But when i create with
 public class test
    {
        public string test_name { get; set; }

        [AutoIncrement]
        public int id { get; set; }

    }
dbConn.CreateTable<test>(true);

Here is table on Postgres
CREATE TABLE test
(
  test_name text NOT NULL,
  id integer NOT NULL,
  CONSTRAINT test_pkey PRIMARY KEY (test_name)
)
WITH (
  OIDS=FALSE
);

What happen with my id columns. Is it bug ?
Thanks for your help
Tuan Hoang Anh

A: I think there are some conventions and case-sensitivity at play here. If you change id to Id it should work
public class test
{
    public string test_name { get; set; }

    [AutoIncrement]
    public int Id { get; set; }

}
dbConn.CreateTable<test>(true);

OrmLite expects an 'Id' property to be present and to be the primary key. You can attribute a property with [PrimaryKey] if you don't want to use Id. However, in this case attributing id with [PrimaryKey] will attempt to create 2 primary keys since OrmLite can't find an Id field and (I think) defaults the first property it finds to be the primary key (can't find docs/proof to back this up, though)

I'm removing the Sheetrock in a cathedral ceiling and installing shiplap pine, nailed directly to the rafters. There are ridge and soffit vents and fiberglass batt insulation. I'm concerned with drafts at the shiplap joints (the house is in New England) and thinking of installing Tyvek between the insulation and the paneling. Will this cause a moisture issue? I could also caulk the joints as I install the boards but this would be a lot more work. Thoughts?

Poem: Carolina
Has it really been seven years since you first pulled me from those fields, away from all I knew, away from sweet simplicity, the simplicity I can't reclaim? Is it simplicity I seek, that small-town life: prosperity? Tough to do with a dangling dream that taunts and haunts and teases yet frees. If simplicity means liberation then maybe it's simplicity I seek. Or is it complexity that frees, this bursting dream: the key? Yes, I think it's freedom that compels me. Has it really been seven years, since I first ran through your tunneled streets, honeysuckle and pine-scent hanging in the summer air? I was running then, and I'm running now, but I still don't know what I'm running from. Tough to know with love, the only love I've ever known, pulling me in, close to your heart, making me feel at home, only to launch me like a rock from a sling. I guess you were just like Indiana, and I'm always launching and leaving. Has it really been seven years since you began to build to break, a "seeing" through unseeing, a "knowing" through unknowing, each struggle a gateway into worlds unfathomable? It was you who called and now you who sends. Easier to transform when safe, the only place I've ever belonged, accepting me as I am, "not as I should be." Bounded by a toxic grace, you were the watershed, not because of where you are but because of who you gave to this "wild bird," this "beloved" soul trapped in skin. Has it really been seven years? Aren't we all just trapped in skin?

"We Did Him Proud"; MATC Basketball team Honors Fallen Teammate
Posted: Jan 26, 2017 10:04 PM CST | Updated: Jan 27, 2017 1:30 PM CST
UPDATE: Milwaukee Police released a photo of a suspect they believe is involved in the homicide on W. Beechwood Avenue.
Police currently are seeking a known male suspect, Amontre O. Ross in connection with the January 25 homicide of Dandre M. Morehouse in the 8000 block of W. Beechwood Avenue.
ORIGINAL : As the MATC men's basketball team took the court Wednesday night, they did so with heavy hearts.
Point Guard Dandre Morehouse was shot and killed just hours before the opening tip.
"The news really tore me up," said Teammate Lavele Gray. "Nobody wakes up in the morning, and plans on a friend, brother, teammate, being murdered that day."
Milwaukee Police say Morehouse was murdered by another man near 80th and Beechwood, on the city's North-west side. The suspect remains in the loose.
Faced with a tough decision, Assistant Coach Cosea Copeland sat down his team, deciding to play the game against Harper College, in Morehouse's honor.
"He's a competitor, and he loved the game of basketball," says Copeland. "What we wanted to relay to them, was what we thought Dandre would want"
The Stormers ended up winning by 20, honoring a man known his leadership, and competitive fire. Morehouse spent most of his time away from basketball with his 7-year-old son, who often attended practice.
"He was just a good person to know," says Gray. "You can't have another friend like that."
The team hopes to honor Morehouse moving forward. If they can find a way to win the league championship, they plan to honor his son with the championship ring.
"To see something like this happen, period, is always a tragedy," says Copeland. "It really does take it's toll."

Guys on Girls: A Man's Perspective on Porn for Women
By J.C. Ways
Did you know that women in the US account for around 24% of all viewers on top
sites like Pornhub?
If you look at countries like the Philippines and Brazil, women account for a
whopping 35% of all porn viewers, so the gap between the sexes gets even smaller. Across the US, 23% of Pornhub viewers are women, with Mississippi taking the top spot of 26% for most female porn viewers (relative to population) in all the US states. I guess there isn't much else to do down there?
Anyway, one thing's for sure – some women love porn, no matter their orientation.
It looks like the number of women watching female-friendly porn is only getting
higher and higher as stigmas are broken down and millennials take a more feminist
view of their sex lives. I've spoken to many young millennial and even Gen Z women who unashamedly declare that they watch porn regularly.
Back 10 or 20 years ago, that would've been weird and "hush-hush". Women only
felt comfortable bringing this sort of stuff up in conversation if it happened on, say,
Sex and the City and they had a convenient way to shoehorn it into a conversation. It seems that modern women aren't making a big deal out of female porn viewing, and that's nice to hear. It's natural, after all.
A Surprising Statistic
Pornhub reports that its female viewers spend an average of 10 minutes and 10
seconds on the site during a single session, while male viewers spend an average of only 9 minutes and 22 seconds in one session.
I suppose you could attribute this to the idea that men can "finish" quicker. Although fewer women watch porn when compared to men, the ones that do are happy to relax into a lengthy session. I guess it's like having quality over quantity for the Pornhub network.
Of course, this is all just from one source, but PornHub is the biggest free porn
website in the world, amassing over 33,500,000,000 site visits in just 2018 alone. It's basically the Google of the porn industry at this point, although as we will explain shortly, it's not necessarily the best place to find female-oriented porn.
What Do Women Like?
Some of the top search terms used by female Pornhub users in the US include:
"rough sex", "lesbians scissoring", "big black dick", "squirt", "BDSM" and "surprise
anal". If we look at terms which are growing in popularity among female viewers, we find things like "man eating pussy", "guy fingering pussy", and "fucked hard
screaming" in addition to more cliché terms like "romantic sex".
It seems that the female porn-viewing audience enjoys a diverse mixture of softcore
erotica videos and hardcore fucking. Of course, you can still find plenty of romantic
stuff reminiscent of Mills & Boon that gets the ladies all hot and bothered, but it's not all super tasteful and SFW. Thank god!
Female Empowerment
After viewing a lot of "for her" porn in preparation for this article, I noticed a common theme throughout most of the videos – a lot of them focused on female
empowerment and respect. Instead of women being treated like pieces of meat, they are depicted more as masters of their own sexual destiny, sucking and fucking
because they choose to. These women own their pleasure.
Cunnilingus and pussy fingering is also commonly found in all types of female-
oriented porn. The idea of someone licking their most sensitive and intimate area is a real turn-on for many ladies.
Seduction is another common trope that runs throughout female-oriented porn, with the woman seducing the man into fucking her. This throws the usual "man wants to fuck woman and woman lets him" dynamic out of the window. No, in this case, the confident female pornstars know what they want and they go out of their way to get it.
Sexy Scenarios
The brain is the body's largest erogenous zone, which is something that a lot of porn intended for heterosexual men fails to take into account. The very idea and context of sex can be arousing in and of itself, whether you're a woman or a man. For this reason, a lot of porn for ladies centers around sexy and naughty scenarios.
For example, one of my favorites from Bellesa.com involves a stepbrother and
stepsister (presumably 18 or 19) who play pranks on one another. It's Halloween,
and the stepbrother puts his dick in a pumpkin and then asks his stepsister to reach inside and pull the seeds out. Once her hand is in there, she begins to slowly jack him off in front of their "mom" who scorns them for it. Later on, they comically fuck in the living room while hiding from their "mom". It's silly and unrealistic, but it has an air of taboo and naughtiness about it which is undeniably sexy.
Taboo porn stories and scenarios which relate to your life can be sexy in numerous
different ways depending on your lifestyle and sexual experiences. If you work in an
office, you might find spontaneous office sex arousing, while if you go the gym a lot, then some sexy sweaty action in the gym showers after a workout session might be enough to get you hot under the collar next time you're stomping the treadmill.
It all depends on you and your tastes, but female-friendly porn does place a stronger emphasis on sexy scenarios and storylines when compared to regular modern porn. In a way, women's porn today is more similar to vintage studio-produced porn from back in the '70s and '80s when there was more of an emphasis on unique settings and scenarios.
Female-Friendly Porn Sites to Try
No matter your sexual orientation, there is bound to be some crossover with regular
male-focused porn in terms of what turns you on personally. However, if you're
looking for more specific sources of porn which are designed to turn women on
specifically, then here are a few good sites to try:
-ForHerTube is a simple grid-style free porn video site which features
varied categories that you can browse. Some of the most popular categories include Innocent, Seduce, Perverted, Hot Mom, Lesbian Seduce, Submissive, Erotic, and Wife in Threesome, to name but a few.
-Sssh has been creating award-winning female-centric porn content for over 20 years at this point. The only downside is that it requires a membership to watch their stuff, but the movies are very high-quality and well-made. They're also known for listening to what their female viewers want to see and then incorporating it into their films. Nice.
-YouPorn is part of the popular Pornhub network that dominates seemingly
all of the porn online. Although YouPorn doesn't explicitly brand itself as being for
women, it does have many more female viewers than its counterparts and you can
hence find a lot of women's porn on there. You can search to find videos by fetish,
for different kinds of sex toys, or by scenario. The branding is also a little more
"feminine", with pink lettering and a love heart in the logo. That might seem a tad
patronizing, but it is what it is.
-Bellesa is arguably the most popular porn site for women or at least one of
the most sought after. Bellesa features a diverse arrangement of videos, images,
and erotic stories which are designed to help women get off. You'll find lots of pussy eating on there, and the porn videos are divided into categories like "sensual", "passionate" and "rough" depending on your mood that evening.
-Literotica Although we're mainly talking about porn movies in this blog, we can't
dismiss erotica entirely. Literotica has been the internet's #1 erotica story website for 20+ years now, providing a platform for writers of all tastes and calibers to share
their erotic desires for the whole world to see. You'll find all sorts of sexy stories on
there, from BDSM to Romance. Just ignore how awful and outdated the website
looks. It's almost as bad as Craigslist.
Just like men, women have varied tastes and find different things arousing
depending on various factors. In other words, we can't paint all of one gender with
the same brush. However, for the majority of ladies, the sites listed above will cater
to their needs and help them to get off more reliably.
More and more women are living out their digital porno fantasies online, so why not
give these sites a try and see if they're for you? Whether you want to see a hot mom fucking her son's friend or Mr. Darcy cheekily glancing at Elizabeth's ankle, grab your Emojibator and get ready for a night of fun!

We address critical issues arising in the practical implementation of processing real point cloud data that exhibits irregularities. We develop an adaptive algorithm based on Learning Theory for processing point clouds from a stationary sensor that standard algorithms have difficulty approximating. Moreover, we build the theory of distribution-dependent subdivision schemes targeted at representing curves and surfaces with gaps in the data. The algorithms analyze aggregate quantities of the point cloud over subdomains and predict these quantities at the finer level from the ones at the coarser level.

It is said that Ajith is playing a dual role in the film, which has set the expectations soaring.
The wait for the trailer of Ajith's Viswasam is finally over. It's here and it is everything you hoped it would be. There's action, romance, comedy, fun, a lot of dhoom dhaam and of course, two Ajith showing a lot of swag. Although both the characters seem the same except for the colour of their beard, Viswasam trailer packs a solid punch. Ajith does everything you know him for. He is dancing, throwing tantrums, making girls fall for him and beat the sh*t out of the goons. All this makes the film pretty interesting.
It is said that Ajith is playing a dual role in the film, which has set the expectations soaring. D Imman has composed the songs for the film, which has received a lukewarm response from the fans and audience.
Further into the trailer we see flashes of a goofy romance between Ajith and Nayanthara. Finally, we have the actor locking horns with Jagapathy Babu, playing the antagonist/ big shot-business man who has set eyes on the town that Ajith guards with all his life.
Viswasam also brings back the celebrated combination of Siva and Ajith. The director-actor duo, with this film, mark their fourth consecutive release, after Veeram (2014) Vedalam (2015) and Vivegam (2017).
The much-hyped film presented by Sathya Jyothi Films is all set to hit screens in January 2019.

Five Broncos things you should know: Aqib Talib, D back to full strength, Andy Janovich & more
Senior Digital Reporter
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. --The loudest voice in the locker room was about to speak -- and he wanted to make sure everyone could hear.
"Hey, Kapri! ... I'm talking!" Aqib Talib yelled from his corner of the locker room to second-year running back Kapri Bibbs, who had a camera in front of him for an interview.
Talib didn't mean it seriously, of course, but his message was clear: He's ready to play, and his excitement at returning was so boundless that he even embraced the question-and-answer part of the job.
1. "I'M BACK, BABY!"
With a full practice Monday and the discomfort from his back injury gone two and a half weeks after he received an injection, Talib emerged from the day's work feeling "great" and on track to play against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday.
Almost as happy as Talib was his locker-room neighbor, fellow Pro Bowler and Kansas product Chris Harris Jr.
"It just makes my job a lot easier just being able to have a guy out there that knows what's going on," Harris said. "The communication is always on point. I don't really have to talk to everybody all game."
Talib remained back in Denver over the bye weekend to focus on continued treatment and conditioning work.
"You sit out three weeks and don't play football, it doesn't really matter what you're going to do, you're going to be tired," Talib said. "So the more [conditioning] you can do, the better you can be."
With the time off, Talib said his legs feel "extra fresh -- like super fresh right now." All the while, his mind focused on the Chiefs. With this week set as the target for his return, he got an early start on his Chiefs preparation.
"I've been watching Kansas City for two weeks," Talib said.

THE DEFENSE IS FINALLY WHOLE ...**
... or at least as close as it can be without Vance Walker, who is out for the season with a torn anterior cruciate ligament.
With Talib and Derek Wolfe expected to return, the Broncos will have their first-team regular-season defense intact for the first time since DeMarcus Ware suffered a forearm injury in the third quarter of the Week 2 win over the Colts.
Ware missed five games. By the time he returned Oct. 30 against San Diego, Talib was sidelined for the first of a three-game stretch spent dealing with a lower back injury.
"It's always good when we get in that huddle and you see everybody -- all the guys," Talib said. "It'll be good. We're well-rested. We should come out and play real fast."
"You can see that they're really fresh," added Head Coach Gary Kubiak said. "[They are] mentally fresh more than anything from getting away from football a little bit, [with] a lot of enthusiasm out here today with guys bouncing around."
3. RESTED AND READY
Only Matt Paradis and Emmanuel Sanders were sidelined Wednesday. Paradis continues to receive rest days for his injured hip, while Sanders is awaiting the birth of his child.
It was the first time in months the Broncos weren't "beat up" to some degree, Kubiak noted.
"We were competitive. We weren't trying to rest 10 guys and get through a Wednesday or Thursday practice," he said. "We were back at it in competitive situations. Hopefully we can stay healthy and stay that way the last six weeks."
4. UNFETTERED JANOVICH
It's back to normal for rookie fullback Andy Janovich, who was able to ditch the club cast on his hand Monday, allowing him to return to full effectiveness after wearing it for the last three games.
"It'll give us one more personnel [group], because obviously the last few weeks, I've been pretty limited in what I can do, so we've been using a lot more tight ends," he said. "It will get me back in the game -- it's just one more personnel [group] to think about."
Janovich averaged 12.7 snaps the last three games with the club cast, a 46.3 percent drop from the average of 23.6 snaps he amassed in the first seven games. With his ability to make plays with the ball limited because of the cast, his opportunities to touch the football dried up after he racked up 69 yards on seven total touches (a 9.9-yard average) from Weeks 1-7.
Despite the cast, he made a one-handed, 9-yard reception against New Orleans on Nov. 13 -- a play that wasn't really planned.
"More than anything, I was just surprised," Janovich said with a laugh. "I don't think it was supposed to work out that way. I think I was just supposed to open up a hole for a running back so he could get out into the route, but it didn't work out that way; it turned out I was the only one open; so [Trevor Siemian] threw it my way."
His catches won't be as difficult in coming weeks.
BYE WEEK EVALUATION**
You can't reset everything at the bye week, but the respite did offer an opportunity for evaluation.
"Being able to present to your players, 'This is what we see, this is what we have to improve upon and [these are] some changes that we're going to make when you come back,' [is] the way that we try to leave them when we left them for the week and before we gave them the break," Kubiak said.
Added Talib: "It wasn't really a message. It was just stating the facts: 'This is what we're giving up; this is what we're doing good; this is what we're doing bad; this is how teams are attacking us.'"
And for the defense, that meant hearing about the ground game, which is now 29th in yardage allowed per game (123.7) and 24th in yardage allowed per carry (4.36), only ranking in the top 10 in first-down rate (one allowed every 4.73 attempts).
"Being in the high 20s is not good. That's not our standard here. We know that's something that we need to tighten up," said cornerback Chris Harris Jr. "If [we] tighten up for these last six games in the run, it's going be hard for teams to beat us."
Breaking down the Broncos' initial roster at the 53-man deadline
With injuries striking players such as Jake Butt, Drew Lock and Theo Riddick in recent weeks, the Broncos had some tricky waters to navigate and will likely be busy in the coming days.
Broncos 20, Cardinals 7: Observations
Malik Reed was a force, Khalfani Muhammad and the running game got going in the third quarter, and punter Colby Wadman had an impressive night as the Broncos concluded the preseason.
Rams 10, Broncos 6: Observations
Keishawn Bierria's fourth-and-goal tackle was one of two fourth-down stops in the red zone that defined an outstanding night for the Broncos' front-seven depth.
Broncos-Rams: What to watch
QBs Kevin Hogan and Brett Rypien are expected to get the snaps in a game that will likely showcase players competing to provide roster depth.
49ers 24, Broncos 15: Observations
Emmanuel Sanders looked like his usual, explosive self. Given how the Broncos need his vertical speed, that was the best news of the night.
What to watch in Broncos-49ers
There are not many first-team positions up for grabs, but the returner spots are. Kelvin McKnight, who had an 18-yard punt return in the preseason opener, is in the mix.
Broncos-49ers Saturday joint practice report: Offense 'came out firing'
Drew Lock noticed a difference in the energy of Denver's offense, which led to a productive practice. "We got the juices flowing early, so whenever that happens, you know it's going to be a good day," he said.
Broncos-49ers Friday joint practice report
The 49ers ratcheted up the intensity, which players like Chris Harris Jr. embraced so they could learn more about their team. "I want to see who wants to compete, who shies away, who doesn't like the competition," Harris said.
Broncos Day 18 camp report: Defending tight ends a focal point
But with San Francisco's George Kittle dealing with a calf injury, Chris Harris Jr. and the Broncos may not get the challenge they hoped to receive in the upcoming joint practices.
Broncos Day 17 camp report: One last practice show for the fans
Now "it's time to get serious," as wide receiver Tim Patrick said. But on Tuesday, they treated the fans to an aerial circus.
Broncos Day 16 camp report: Jamal Carter gets used to his new spot
Previously a safety, Carter now finds himself learning how to be an inside linebacker.
Broncos Day 15 camp report: George Aston's plate is full
As the only healthy fullback on the roster, he will be busy with the offense during its team periods. But his work on special teams could determine whether he makes the 53-man roster.

Channel Master debuted a new indoor TV antenna that performs as seven different antennas rolled into one.
The SMARTenna+ was unveiled at CES 2018 in Las Vegas this week. It's the second major device announced by Channel Master within the last month. Channel Master has also developed the Stream+ media player. That's a new Android TV media player that plays live over-the-air channels with DVR capabilities.
SMARTenna+: 7 antennas in 1?
The new SMARTenna+ uses an internal processor to analyze and select optimum signal reception patterns.
Channel Master says the SMARTenna+ has seven different antenna reception patterns, giving it the equivalent power of an antenna in seven different locations in the room at the same time.
Where all other indoor TV antennas need to be physically repositioned to find and acquire optimum signal reception, SMARTenna+ can remain stationary while simply adjusting its internal reception pattern, either automatically during initial setup or at any time thereafter by pushing a button on the processor housing.
Channel Master has tapped Ethertronics, a manufacturer of ultra-high performance smart antenna systems for smartphones, laptops and tablets.
SMARTenna+ includes a smart Ethertronics processor, built-in signal amplification, automatic noise filtering, and new patented push-on cable connectors.
Channel Master says the SMARTenna+ effectively overcomes 90% of common indoor reception issues experienced with all other indoor antennas on the market today, delivering more channels and better reception.
First I want to say I love your blog. I searched the specs about the amplifier, and I am curious about whether or not the amplifier can be disabled if not needed or will the adjustments be made automatically. I am just wondering if this type of antenna would be beneficial to me. I live in Phila, however, my TV sits against a wall in the middle of my living room. I currently use an antenna W/16 ft cable hung high and in the line of sight of a window. Pulling in some channels can be tricky.

Voices of Family Promise: T.J. Putnam, Executive Director of Family Promise of the Mid-Willamette Valley
As part of our ongoing conversation on homelessness, we asked members of the Family Promise network and individuals working to serve families experiencing homelessness to share their personal thoughts and reflections on Family Promise and the issue of family homelessness. These writers are true thought leaders, using their skills and expertise to develop and implement creative solutions that are changing the lives of parents and children in their communities. This post is from T.J. Putnam, Executive Director of Family Promise of the Mid-Willamette Valley.
This article was originally published in the Statesman Journal. View the original here.
With the outbreak of COVID-19 and the recent declaration that we are now entering a national state of emergency, these are uncertain times for all of us.
However, for families and individuals experiencing homelessness or for those on the threshold of homelessness, the possibility of losing their emergency shelter, home or job compounds this uncertainty.
The effects of coronavirus are far-reaching and go beyond public health. This outbreak will undoubtedly destabilize the housing situation of countless families in our community unless we take proactive steps to mitigate this now.
The impact this outbreak will have on vulnerable families is profound. Hourly workers have already seen a significant reduction in their paychecks and there is a very real possibility we will begin to see layoffs.
With schools across the state closed, working parents also will struggle with the issue of childcare. Many parents will be forced to make the decision between paying for childcare or taking extended unpaid leave from work. The latest figures from Salem-Keizer Public Schools show that roughly 1,150 students are experiencing homelessness, meaning these closures will have a devastating effect on their way of life.
We understand that securing public health is of the highest importance, however, the economic fallout of this crisis will disproportionately impact the families we serve.
