The September issue of CR rates the sound machine, Tranquil Moments Travel Sound Therapy System, as a favorite for the panelists who tested it. It masked most of the unwanted sounds when on the setting. It has a timer and 12 sound settings. Panelists fell asleep more easily and said they stayed asleep longer. It works with either an outlet or four AA batteries.

This is a 99% family friendly blog, however on rare occasion I stray off the reservation and add an “adult’ post, but NEVER intentionally something that is NSFW. So feel free to show this to your boss.

Hey! -I (Tiffany, a female journalist) need stories for an upcoming article for a major women’s magazine on what it feels like to have sex with different types of men that or always wonder about, like:
…a professional athlete. Are his powers of endurance a wear-out or a win?
…a celebrity. Does all that charisma translate between the sheets?
…someone a foot shorter than you. Surely Prince isn’t the only 5’2″ man who has been with someone supermodel tall.
…a male model. When you shut your eyes, does the memory of his beautiful face add to your pleasure?
…someone older than your father.
…someone hardly old enough. He probably has stamina and enthusiasm for days, but at any point does your pleasure take a backseat to feeling like a cradle robber?
…a 40-year-old virgin. Or at least a 30-year-old one.
…a gynecologist.
…someone that doesn’t speak the same language as you. If the key to good sex is communication, what happens when you can barely say, “Hello, my name is?”

The quoted text above is taken from a mailing list that I belong to that aids journalists in finding people to interview for upcoming stories. Now I know what you ladies really want to read about!

We decided to attend the Del Mar Fair (aka the ) on the very last day of the Fair this past Sunday. We planned to buy our discounted tickets a day in advance on Saturday. When we arrived at the grocery store we were told that there were no more discount tickets for sale, which wasn’t a complete surprise considering it was the last weekend of the Fair.

For those who would like to avoid parking fees, the Fair offers free, off-site parking and shuttle service. Public shuttles and buses will take you to and from the Fair. On Sunday we drove over to the Horsepark Equestrian Center to park our car as we had the done the last time went to the Fair. We parked on the dusty lot and walked over to the bus stop.

Right where you board the yellow school bus (the school bus seating wasn’t designed for tall people so my knees were up in my chest for the trip over to the Fair) is a ticket booth to purchase tickets in advance of arriving at the Fair entrance. I was just about to buy the tickets when I noticed the sign that read “cash only” sales. It was early enough in the day so I thought I’d wait till we got off at the entrance to wait in line to buy tickets with my credit card.

When we arrived at the Fair entrance, we were walking towards the ticket line when out-of-the-blue a guy tore off and handed us the 2 tickets you can see in the photo. I glanced back at him as we walked on and he wasn’t handing out tickets to anyone else. Initially, I thought they were some typical throw away marketing promotion, but upon closer examination they appeared to be genuine tickets. As we continued to walk towards the entrance, I asked a security guy if they were good and he said they were.

I looked back to see where the media-pass-guy was so I could walk back and thank him, but he was already walking away. Why he randomly picked us to give the tickets to remains a mystery, but we used the saved $24.00 entrance fee towards gifts for our family. Paying it forward so to speak. Thanks media-pass-guy!

Common Craft explains in plain English. It isn’t about building connections, it’s about you being more productive. People networks are often hidden from view. Linkedin solves this problem by making professional connections visable.
