Comfort | Christian Pulisic
For @lionspridetingz, per our earlier conversation. Enjoy xx
The moment you saw him running down the pitch screaming, you knew something was wrong. Your heart was in your throat as you watched him clutch his hamstring and wince in pain. You couldn’t be at the match because of all the restrictions so you were stuck at the home you shared with Chris, your heart and mind racing. “Please be okay,” you whispered to yourself, tears starting to form as you clutch the pillow you’re holding, rocking back and forth in his jersey. “Please please please, Chris.”
The tears started to fall as you watched him limp off the pitch, supported by a physio on either side, clearly in pain. 
You could barely focus on the rest of the match, sending Chris a text that he hadn’t yet responded to. You were starting to worry, especially when you watched Aubameyang put another in the back of the net in the 67th minute and Chris still hadn’t replied. 
Relief flooded you when you heard him come in the door and you rushed to pull him in for a hug, careful not to knock him off-balance. “I was so worried about you,” you mumbled, placing your hands on his chest and looking up at him with worry in your eyes. “I saw you go down and I just thought the worst and-”
“I’m fine, babe. It’s a hamstring injury that I’ve gotta nurse for a couple weeks - gonna miss the match next week, though.” He limped away and that’s when you noticed the crutches he was using and your heart broke further. 
“What do you need, love?” You asked, your voice soft and soothing as you sat down next to him. 
Chris looked over at you, eyes shining with unshed tears as he whispered, “Just take my mind off it? Every time I close my eyes I replay that moment and I just...I can’t.”
You smiled at him, taking his face in your hands and giving him a quick kiss. “Give me five minutes, okay?”
“Okay.”
You raced around the house, Christian’s giggles at your speed filling the air and lightening the mood. You propped his leg up and got him some ice, dropping another quick kiss into his hair as you ran back to the kitchen. Water was boiled for tea, blankets were grabbed, and Disney+ was loaded up. 
“What Disney movie are you making me watch now?” Chris asked, chuckling as you set his warm mug of peppermint tea on the table and snuggled under one of the blankets. You pulled his head into your lap and smiled down at him. 
“You’ll just have to wait and see, now, won’t you?” You promised, smiling as the opening sounds of Hercules began to play.
“Wow, what a throwback,” Chris commented, earning himself a teasing tug on his earlobe that had both of you giggling. 
You spent the majority of the movie watching him watch it, still in disbelief about the outcome of today’s match. Chris hummed and shifted every so often, but you kept on stroking his hair and lightly tracing over his strong jaw and cheekbones. He never complained about you taking care of him like this and for that you were grateful - the two of you had promised each other that you’d be there at your lowest points and so far throughout this almost-two-year relationship, you’d done just that. You’d been with each other through thick and thin and tonight was no exception. 
“Wanna order some takeaway?” You asked when the movie was over, pulling out your phone and ordering from his favourite place before he could properly respond. 
His phone rang while you were waiting for delivery, his parents on the phone. You said hello to them and spoke to them for a few minutes before excusing yourself so he could have some time with them to himself. It hurt your heart as you listened to his conversation from the kitchen, Chris’s defeated voice as he recounted the injury report he’d been given from the physios after he left the pitch. 
When you came back into the living room, you noticed Chris swiping at his eyes, immediately pulling him into your arms for a tight, comforting hug. “I’m sorry,” he mumbled as he sniffled into your shoulder, “I just miss them so much sometimes.”
“Of course you do, baby,” you replied as you ran a soothing hand down his back. “It’s okay to miss them.”
“I know,” he said, squeezing you tighter. “I’ve got you here, though.” He buried his face in the crook of your neck and sighed. “Thank you.”
The food arrived shortly after and you divvied it up, giving him a small smile as you handed him his plate. You queued up Tangled and the two of you watched that while you ate. When it was over, you helped Chris to bed, your hands on his body as you helped him out of his clothes. He gave you a cheeky, expectant look that you shut down. “You’re injured,” you said, quirking an eyebrow.
“My hamstring is injured, not my dick, babe,” Christian countered, giving you a lopsided grin.
“You’re cute, Pulisic,” you chastised, stepping in between his legs. You took his face in your hands again and tugged on his hair as you pulled him in for a kiss. 
The two of you laid in bed, your head on Chris’s shoulder as you traced his tattoos. You talked about everything and nothing, keeping Chris’s mind off the day’s events as his speech started to slur and his eyes drifted closed, his breathing slowing until it evened out and you knew he was asleep.
“I love you, baby,” you whispered, kissing his temple as you snuggled back into his side, sleep soon finding you, too.

You’ll Never Be My Equal
Tumblr media
Summary.
Circe the Goddess of Sorcery had grown to the Loki - he was everything she used to be. After the battle of New York, maybe a spark starts to emit?
Disclaimer.
This is the prologue so this is all during the New York battle.
Word Count.
1982k
——
Alone, I sat peacefully in my castle just as I did every night. I had grown tired of my lonesome island - no longer forced or banished I’d occasionally make my way to near by countries and walk around. Examine the people that had taken over Earth - so sensitive and weak they were. I rubbed my forehead vigorously to belittle the new coming headache. No such luck - I sauntered over to my bed chambers. The enormous stack of pillows and blankets engulfing my slender body - I breathed in fully - letting the warmth hug me.
I awoke abruptly, jumping from where I laid. I could feel the fading familiarity of a presence radiate through my body. Someone was here, in the castle. I swung my feet over the edge of my bed and stood gracefully. My hands rested besides my hips - waiting for someone to come around the corner.
The smell of fresh dew filled my nostrils - Gaia. The mother of all life, the mother of Earth. Gaia slowly made her way in front of my face, she exuded a fresh and warming energy. Her smile always bringing joy to myself.
“Gaia, so lovely to see you.” I gushed, wrapping my arms around my great grandmother.
“Hello, Circe - I see you’ve been busy.” She chuckles as she gazes over at my messy enchantment table.
“If I grow rusty I can’t assist you or Zeus.”
“I am glad to see you’re still practicing and growing, I on the other hand have grown weary and need your help.” My grandmother paused on her words as she paced slowly around my chambers; head hung low. “I fear we will have an attack soon - I can hear the whispers, the air is changing. I want to send you and Athena to where my suspicions lie but I fear for now you will have to do this on your own.” Her voice was heavy - I could read from the atmosphere she was afraid for her home.
“When do you need me to leave?”
“Right now, New York City, New York. Stark Tower.”
I placed my hand gently on her shoulder, giving her a welcomed smile. “I’ll get ready and be out before Zeus can say lightning.”
With that, Gaia vanished - a few yellow daisies falling onto the spot where she stood. A part of me was excited - the first real reason to leave the castle in about 90 years. Another part of me was in anguish at my grandmothers heavy heart - she of course struggled before. The last time she called upon me was when Hitler was around - Athena, Nike, Hercules and myself to save the planet from total destruction.
I sighed, running a hand through my brown locks. I slipped into my navy blue peplos and flipped my leather wrist guards and sandals onto my body. Athena always showed up in the most heavily dressed armor - I’d sniffle at her as she’d oddly struggle at times to move around. I on the other hand dressed light, unlike other peplos mine was chiffon. The navy blue fabric only cinched at my waist and flowed around my legs - helping allude of a bigger frame. Hand to hand combat meant lots of large movements - meaning a larger dress was preferable. My hair was always kept down and long to protect my neck and head - feet bare in the old times but as humans grew more disgusting I now adorned leather sandals.
A cheeky smile crept onto my face as I remembered my old crown - bestowed after the Battle of the Americas. Zeus mended a crown of Vibranium for me, a gift for my newfound bravery and loyalty to him. I placed the intricate award on my head. Oh the rush before conjuring magic never grew old - as if an old friend had visited me. Circling my hands slowly in front of my body I swung them apart and slipped into the cracks of the realms. In a split second I was at the given location.
A man made of metal fell from the sky - landing on a circular pad. As his face uncovered, he was older - perfectly manicured facial hair and crows feet around his eyes. Stepping from the darkness - I made my presence known. His now average clothed body jumping at the sound of my feet. His eyes narrowed curiously.
“Who are you and why are you on my patio?” He questioned inquisitively.
“I am Circe, Goddess of Sorcery. I was sent here by Gaia to help save the planet.” My voice boomed as I stepped closer to the tiny human. My figure taller for the intimidation.
“Circe.. Circe. Where have I heard that name?” He paused, scratching his beard. “Oh! You’re a Greek goddess!” He eyes were unreadable - he wasn’t excited but he wasn’t upset. “The mythological Norse Gods are real so of course the ancient Greek Gods are as well. Doy.” He slightly slapped his forehead in disbelief.
“I got word of a threat coming to New York to destroy the planet. I am here to help. Athena was unable to join us.”
“What about Zeus? The bug guy available?” He laughed at his joke - a small rage boiling inside of my stomach.
In a split second I was towering over him - my body now a few feet taller than before. I held my staff tightly in my palm. “Don’t ever mock Zeus, again. If anything we can watch you all burn.” I spat.
“You don’t get out much, do you?” He waved his head from side to side in disbelief as he made his way inside of the shiny tower.
“Pep. We have a visitor.” He called out to the woman sitting at the black leather couch.
The room was enormous - vastly different from what I’d grown to love at home.
“We have two then, Coulson is coming up.” This ‘Pep’ spoke, she stood her body up and walked over to my now “average” sized one. “Nice to meet you, I’m Pepper Potts. You are?”
“I am Circe - Goddess of Sorcery. Daughter of Hecate.” I informed - her eyes grew as she realized. This was going to grow old fast.
The world wasn't ever going to be ready for mass destruction - it wasn’t a thousand years ago and it wasn’t now. Gaia knew that - she of all people wasn’t going to let go of her beloved world, even if they spat at her. I had met about everyone on the “team” as they called it - every introduction earning large eyes and an awkward silence. Fury was the most surprised out of them all - he stayed silent the longest.
Banner was alerted and got a hit on this ‘Loki’ in Germany - once again I had to save the country from a man that saw himself above everyone else. Ironic as my beloved friend Zeus was the same way. Rogers spoke up to volunteer to bring Loki in. We made our way to the city in Germany - the commotion had already begun. Loki was standing above a crowd of innocent faces - an elderly man was the last to kneel - speaking words of wisdom to the fallen Asgardian.
Rogers threw his shield at the puny god causing him to topple at the sudden impact. The crowd scattered away to safety. The two fought vigorously for a few moments as I waited in the shadows. Stark had originally planned to make an entrance if things went dark - but I offered to prove my loyalty just as I had for Zeus and Athena all those years before. As Rogers fell to the ground, I stepped out of the shadows. My staff in my palm tightly as I stomped entrancingly towards the men. A smirk grew on the tricksters face - unknowing of who he’d have to deal with.
“And who is this newbie?” His voice was rough and edged - he was cocky.
Again I had to introduce myself. “I am Circe, Goddess of Sorcery. Daughter of Hecate.” My voice boomed as my height grew. In a matter of seconds I was a tower over the small god.
“Circe. As in villain turned Olympian? You all had fallen?” He dropped the scepter and two daggers flew from his hands - his cocky grin once again appearing on his pale face. “Never mind that.”
His body lunged at mine, but as soon as he came into a close range my hand flickered up and threw a wall in front of his figure. He was stuck - his fists pounded at the shield. I shut my hand into a fist - a smirk now growing on my own face as the shield wrapped around his body tightly. The thought of turning him into a creature crossed my mind - but I had recovered from my old and cruel ways. I shrunk back down and carried him over to the jet. He had no chance.
The metal bird held us up in the sky, I sat across from Loki. His gaze bore into my soul as he thought. His eyes furrowed - lips tight, as if he was trying to connect the dots.
“Who sent you, we thought the Olympians were fallen.” He questioned, he was confused.
“Gaia - or as the humans would call her Mother Earth. She fears your path will destroy her.” I stood and gazed down on the man. “To us, you’re just a man. You’ve already lost Loki.” A jolt to the jet startled the crew.
Lightning broke and cackled through the night sky - Thor or Zeus had a temper tonight. Tony peered over at Loki.
“What’s the matter, afraid of a little lightning?” He chortled.
“I’m not too fond of what comes after.” Loki admitted.
A sudden crash erupted from the ceiling, someone was on the roof. The jets loading door flew open, a man - an old friend - Thor landing. The wind thrusted around, the mortals growing uneasy. Thor came to grab Loki - before I could manage to stop Thor they were gone. Tony gave me a ‘what just happened’ look before I vanished.
The realm allowed me to slip right between the two ‘Gods’ my dagger at Thor’s throat. “He’s ours.” I threatened, the sharp weapon almost piercing his skin.
“Loki will pay for his crimes on Asgard, witch.” His voice cold.
“I am no witch.”
“I wouldn’t taunt her if I were you.” Loki spoke up to protect his brother.
My eyes narrowed as I shoved Thor back. His hammer crashing down to wack me, I reached up and held it tightly. A look of awe and worry. I trickled my hands up to his temples - his bright blues rolling back as I casted his soul into a dream. Beer and mead satisfied his burdened heart. He was tired - struggling with the needs of the throne. As I searched his emotions and heart - he was good. Worthy. I pulled him out of it and stepped back from him.
His eyes glazed over as he came to be. “Circe? We thought you all had fallen.” His tone was hushed. “I had come to protect Earth because of the stories of the Olympian’s falling.”
I nodded, gluing Loki to where he was sitting so I could have a word with his brother. “We had vanished for almost a hundred years - we never fell. Zeus ordered us to go home after Germany. He has grown tired of the fighting - he’s growing tired of the immortality. The reason I’m here is because of Gaia not Zeus. She’s afraid your brother will destroy the Earth if we don’t stop him.” I confessed - Thor had been help to Athena many years ago. In all honesty I had a small trust in him. He was so similar to Athena and always loyal when we needed him - how could I not? “It’s been a long time, old friend.”
“I see, well let’s get Loki to Fury then.” A surprising agreement from him.

Odwain! The goodest.
Tumblr media
Wow, featuring one of the more flattering drawings I’ve done of Odwain. Like last time, I’ll post all these guys separately and then do all the headshots in a masterpost. In the meantime buckle up for...a lot. (Thank you for giving me my favorite character.) 
Full Name: Odwain Novak. In Ben Yit’gab, the Bennai language, his first name would be Oediwen, and it’s what his dad called him. His mother calls him Oddy and he does not like it.
Gender and Sexuality: Male and Bisexual
Pronouns: He/him
Ethnicity/Species: Odwain is a Ben-Aleth, a Human-Bennai hybrid, also called a mosshead if you’re in coarse company. His human mother Blanche Novak is mixed race. Odwain’s maternal grandfather came directly from Earth, Poland specifically, during one of the several accidental migrations of humans coming from Earth to The Road. His maternal grandmother is from a previous wave who were already settled on The Road by that time, but the family can trace her ancestry back to West Africa. Odwain’s father, Ashatov Novak, was a full-blooded Bennai, a plant-based halfling race. Ashatov took his wife’s last name.
Birthplace and Birthdate: Thinking about this trips me out man. Odwain was born in 1946, sometime in the summer, probably July or August, in Septor Secundis, a coastal, metropolitan city and the seat of The Road’s government. He’s 27 during his first adventure and right now, in Godslaughter, he is 69 (what the FUCK). He will live maybe 20 or 30 years longer than your average human, and is in better physical shape than a human would be at 69. He’s more like late 40’s or early 50’s.  
Guilty Pleasures: A lot, probably - Odwain has just a bit of hedonistic streak just because he feels miserable so much of the time that he needs to feel good somehow. He smokes cigarettes for much of his life (but eventually quits), is a casual cannabis smoker and binge eats really truly terrible junk food (and has a bit of a gut because of it, but because he’s kind of lanky otherwise, he’s just kind of gourd-shaped). He likes beer, but doesn’t drink hard liqour all that often because he gets astronomically bad hangovers. Despite having a generally weak stomach, Odwain really likes frightfully spicy food, and his kids’ obligatory dad-gifts for him are probably hot sauces. When he’s not pounding down garbage, his favorite kind of cuisine is Thai. Not a guilty pleasure per say, but he also loves all things that have to do with insects, and when he and Rusty have a house together, Odwain takes up gardening as a hobby and plants an expansive garden of flora that are attractive to bees. (A Nice Thing: Odwain plants this garden when Rusty is pregnant because he found his love of insects through his father’s garden as a child, and wanted to give his kids the same opportunity) Odwain also maintains an apiary from the time that he’s living in a warehouse in the desert, to when he’s living with a partner and beyond. When he learns how to make Hot Honey it’s over for all of us. He has a modest collection of novelty bee-themed things that he’s amassed over the years, but he is not guilty about asserting his love of bees/wasps, like, at all. He’s also a little kinky but I’m not going into that.
Phobias: All of Odwain’s fears are existential - what if I push everyone away, existing in society is anxiety inducing, what if I’m just a bad person and my existence is making everything more difficult for functional people, etc. Though he’s kind of a sad fellow and has ideated suicide, and came very, VERY close to trying to kill himself after he dropped out of college, he also fears growing old and dying. I think death is more digestible to him if it’s on his own terms, but even then, I think what coaxed him off the edge was fear. If anything ever happened to his chosen romantic partner or any of his kids, he’d be besides himself, and is kind of one severe trauma and emotional breakdown away from becoming a bee-themed supervillian.
What They Would Be Famous For: Odwain is notable at a certain point in his career for being a pioneer in AI programming, and also for designing, building and patenting an invention called the Hercules Rig, which is basically a beetle-wing inspired jetpack. You can see it here. He holds the patent very closely and only allows it to be reproduced for recreation, construction, emergency rescue operations, etc. Odwain has taken a very firm stance on not allowing the military or any paramilitary organization to get their hands on it, though it has not stopped them from making shitty knock-offs that he is constantly suing people about.
What They Would Get Arrested For: Breaking and entering. Exploding something he shouldn’t. Buying illegal hazardous materials. Doing something petty that bites him in the ass.
OC You Ship Them With: To be honest there are not a lot of other characters besides Rusty that I ship him with. Bitter college rivals, thrown back together as late twenty-somethings, becoming better people together and learning to express empathy and vulnerability…it’s good. The only other character that I really go yeah, that’s the good stuff, is Jake’s character Finnick, who is kind of Odwain’s weird BFF and fellow mad scientist type. I don’t think they’d have a super stable relationship, and I think it would most likely be a “we yelled at each other and had weird sex enough that we like each other now” kind of scenario. But I do think they would come to love each other and have each other’s back to the death. Him and Hemlock, my dirty swamp witch who’s only picture was devoured during the great tumblr purge, also make a pretty fun couple for similar reasons. Iona too, but I think they are too explosive of personalities to ever find a stable middle ground. I also think he would find certain people attractive (August, Hare, Ganzrig, Ifechi the man I have spoken of but once, Jonquil in certain scenarios) but may not put himself out there to pursue them.
Neither of us have ever posted any art of her but here’s a few headshots of Finnick I did awhile ago, because she really is my favorite romantic partner for Odwain aside from Rusty, and is the only other one that’s really relevant in our games. 
Tumblr media
OC Most Likely To Murder Them: Odwain is fairly physically fragile and to be honest I think that most people could kill him as long as they could get their hands on him - he’s very dexterous and has a lot of gadgets that let him get the upper hand, keep enemies at a distance or escape. He has a ranged fighting/add-spawn build so he is mostly out of direct harm unless he’s reeled in somehow. But uh, Odwain IS dead right now in Godslaughter, he died fighting an eldritch deity named Dreamer who sucked him into a nightmare dimension and flayed his soul out of his body. It’s ok though, as long as the party beats Dio, he’ll be fine. I didn’t cry you’re the one who’s crying.
Favorite Movie/Book Genre: Ok, so, first off HAHA Odwain canonically likes Transformers and collects them, which are a thing in circulation after the last human migration from earth in the 90’s. Imagine. Imagine your grown ass father with a genius level IQ and multiple patents collecting plastic robots. Him and Finnick have transformers sonas - ANYWAY, that aside, he doesn’t really read for pleasure, just information, and generally just puts on cable while he works for white noise (and in later years, whatever The Road’s TV streaming service is). Most of the media he consumes is incidental to him, but will get interested in strange things that pique his interest. He probably thinks true crime docs are neat and enjoys pulpy sci-fi stuff that he can complain about. Any documentary about bugs. He’d like Mystery Science Theatre if they had it around. He enjoys things that are the fun, good kind of “bad” and has a fairly high threshold for  disturbing imagery.
Least Favorite Movie/Book Cliche: Odwain is that guy who makes 20 minute long youtube videos lampooning movies for “not making sense”. If there’s anything that breaks his suspension of disbelief, his attention and tolerance disintegrates, even if it’s just one of those things that needs to happen to move the plot along. It doesn’t really matter what genre it is, though he is most hard on sci-fi and fantasy. There is a tipping point for him, however, where he starts enjoying the thrill of blasting something and circles back around to enjoying it.
Talents and/or Powers: Odwain is only a little bitty bit magical, and only because Bennai are the most magical race on The Road. He has latent magical ability that allows him to sense magical signatures and incorporate magic into technology, and maybe cast a low level spell if he tries really hard. If he was in a high fantasy setting, he’d be an enchanter. His staff (the big lightbulb thing I draw him with sometimes), the Hercules Rig, his Wasp Suite (robotic wasps with an AI and different spells loaded into them) and any other devilish, bug-based weapons and utility objects do his work for him.
Why Someone Might Love Them: Odwain’s a bit of a tough walnut to crack because I think that he shines in moments of sincerity and vulnerability, but he has to, well, get there. He’s capable of very great, thoughtful acts of selflessness and compassion, and deeply desires meaningful relationships with other people, but he gets insecure about how he expresses himself and can clam up. He’s passionate, emotional and expressive, but has been put down for being so, and was probably a very brilliant, curious child who was beaten down into a somber adult. I actually think that, at some point in his childhood, he was not entirely unlike Whitty in the way that he was eager to share things with people and explore the world around him, which is why Odwain feels very protective of his grandson. I think the most lovable thing about him is that when he’s at his best, nothing can stop him - he’s extremely intelligent, diligent, creative and innovative. He truly, deeply loves making things, and making them better, and when he’s not in a crash, creates prolifically. What he loves, he loves deeply and without compromise, which makes Rusty, a person that could also be said of, a good match for him. I also think his cattiness makes him very witty, he’s a genuinely funny guy who can engage in some really goofy shenanigans when he’s feeling up for it.  
Why Someone Might Hate Them: Oh, lots of reasons. Odwain is an acquired taste to many, or just not to many’s taste at all. He is very petty, blunt and catty, and as a young man is extremely bitter and negative. You’d be very hard pressed to get a positive statement about anything out of him between the ages of 16-25. He’s very confrontational, can become very loud and intense if it’s something that he feels is important, and is not afraid to cut people out of his life if he feels that they aren’t good for him. Sometimes, he will end relationships/friendships prematurely because of this. Being such, he is heavily prone to self-inflicted isolation. He has no childhood friends, and only kept in touch with one person from college. He just cuts and runs. Odwain’s self-loathing runs very deep, which makes it hard for him to accept, or ask for, emotional support or affection. And that can be hard on the people around him who care about him. His executive dysfunction can also be abysmal, making it seem like perhaps he is messy or lazy, but he’s just kind of a mess himself, hah.
A weird non-psychological one but I think is enough to get someone’s hackles up is that Odwain doesn’t like animals very much unless they are insects, invertebrates, etc. He finds mammals loud, messy and needy, and that “I’m the only one in my house that is allowed to be all of those things”.
How They Change: As Odwain ages and gains a stable support network of friends, his edges soften and he learns how to ask for help more effectively. He also learns how to better choose his battles, and how to exercise the compassion that he knows he has, but has been too insecure to utilize. He manages his mental health better, but is never entirely free of it, because you never really are. Most importantly, I think, he learns how to forgive the people who deserve forgiveness, and give people second chances, accepting that people can change. Which means the same can be said for him, too.
Why You Love Them: I’ve talked about this before, somewhere, I’m sure. Odwain is one of those characters that has a very big slice of my personality, and has a lot of my more negative traits, though they are ones we’re both working on. My first session with Odwain was a scene where Odwain’s dad died after being ill for a very long time, and as it happens, it was on father’s day, on the first or second father’s day after MY dad died, after several brutal months fighting with the cancer that eventually killed him. I had to put down the dice, so to speak, and for a short time, thought that Odwain might actually be a character that I scrapped completely. He came too close to something very painful and personal. I don’t remember how, exactly, but the solution to this problem of mine was that if he’s getting close to me on his own, then I might as well just let him in on everything. I can genuinely say that doing that has changed the way that I empathize with my characters and how I make them, and that there is something I share with Odwain that I don’t have with many of my other characters. Also, I like bees.

Complete Bathmate Review and More
I have basically maxed away a ~7.5" x 6,1".
Large, however, not "huge".
Though a major expansion from the ~ 5.3" x 5.0" dick I once had.
I am interested in a few experimental hormonal techniques to put in a bit more size, though I am a lot happy with what is in between the legs of mine now. My lady is happy as well. ;)
I've the "rings," upon utilizing bathmate and they also disappear in a couple of minutes. I eventually recognized what they're from I am getting much too large for the Hercules and yes it may be the time to go as much as the larger body. I've the brand new Hydromax x30 on the manner in which. The Bathmate Hercules supports as many as 9" in length and 6.5" in girth. I am pressing it on girth [when broadened within the Bathmate] at this stage.
Bathmate was among the products that got me to begin the site through the primary Facebook group of ours. Because of the private dynamics of the problem and more than the best advertising by lots of makes, it's tough to locate authentic reviews and specifics about male enhancement products. I will protect every part of Bathmate in this particular comprehensive comment. You will discover confirmed consumer opinions in the conclusion of the article that are an aspect of the Facebook group of ours.
Bathmate (almost any penis enlargement pump) works by producing a vacuum round the penis. As the vacuum grows? that's, substance is pumped from the cylinder that involve the penis? the ensuing strain attracts bloodstream in to the erectile chambers, extending the penile shaft to its optimum capacity.Thanks to the suppleness of the penile cells, there's obviously great space for expansion not unlike an over inflated tyre.
I might discovered six healthcare journals(citation in the end) which will help support the above mentioned principle of penis extension by traction or stress. Many of these health journals are about real world trials. Thus, you need to provide the accounts additional weightage than evaluations you experience all around the web.
Although the science behind Bathmate penis pump is pretty simple, the constituents components to look after enough sizing as well as brilliance concern isn't. In order to stay away from the danger of trauma and suboptimal outcomes, it's advisable to opt for the reputed brand name like Bathmate. Despite Bathmate, you have to stay within the suggested routine getting results that are good with no danger of trauma. When you're on the checkout web page, you might notice a package to get into a coupon code. As per our newest details (April 2018), genuine Bathmate website does not have any coupon code. If perhaps you see a working coupon code, you have to be on a fake site. Thus, continually be cautious. Just purchase from Official Website.
Here is what this particular penis pump is able to do:
Improve measurements in place to plus 1-2 inches in most cases after 6-12 months
Augment thickness
Boost self-confidence
For higher stamina
Increases orgasm
Enlarge penile head
Correct curves
Help in Peyronie's condition (Clinically proven)
Assists erectile dysfunction Bathmate most pumps begun as atmosphere that is to high. Nevertheless, that was innovated to present an even more efficient consequence. With all the experts' pneumatic and hydraulic awareness, they realized the pump is able to move better with h2o. The h2o produces a partial vacuum that involve the penis that will improve as well as enhance the penile wellbeing.
The brand new pump is known as Hydromax hydropump where h2o is used to push bloodstream on the body organ. This will, in turn, boost blood chambers ensuing to longer, hard and thicker rock erections.
The organization had released Goliath as well as Hercules as flagship versions to begin with. The very first one was for the conventional size as well as the latter with the larger hydro penis pump. After a little time, Hydromax was included and this's the better variation of the very first two sorts which happen to have thirty % even more energy. This method has faster and better benefits. Apart from HydoMax Xtremes which will come with hands heels, the majority of the designs are self contained and therefore are devoid of any additional aspect.
Hercules? This's suggested for males with a minimum of seven penile measurements. This could also support so long as 8.4 with a girth of 6.6 max. This's the least expensive style however numerous men discovered the to become the best also.
HydroMax X20? For men that have a maximum penile measurements of 5.5, this person is the greatest choose. It is able to assist you improve as much as 7.4 measurements plus 5.4 of girth.
HydroMax X30? make use of this in case you would like outcomes that are important in only a brief period. Originality was completed on the valve process of its, enabling it to suction far more to almost as thirty % when compared with various other versions. It's a comparable dimensions to Hercules. Hence, Hydromax X30 may be used by typical guys(less than seven in when erect).
HydroMax X40? This's for males with seven to ten measurements of the erect penis. The optimum girth of 7.9 may additionally be accommodated.
Goliath? This's the biggest sort with penis computing nine in length or even greater (up to 10.5). It's additionally for individuals with nine girth. In order to have the thought of what size this's, realize that you are able to accommodate Hercules within this particular pump! HydroMax Extreme? This is available in sequence (Xtreme XX50, Xtreme XX40, and Xtreme XX30, intended for men with 9 11 measurements range. These are available with handball pump and also hose along with a large amount of various other extras. This particular probably the most complex sequence with lots of additions.
Picking out the pump which meets you many is vital, or else, you won't just receive the preferred effect though you are able to possess a swollen, bruised and sore penis. This has absolutely nothing to do with the choice of yours of using water or maybe air flow pump. The most significant factor is picking the item with the very best quality.
The great point regarding Bathmate pump may be the simplicity of the use of its. In reality, you are able to simply put in it easily to the day program of yours.
In your everyday bath (in a bath or maybe tub), load up the tube with h2o that is warm. Next, put in the flaccid penis of yours within the pump's cylinder (Nevertheless, many men acknowledge they normally use this with an erect penis). To create a preliminary seal, drag the pump to the body of yours as well as release this. As you are doing very, the bath is going to be introduced out of the pump by its release lamp that is situated in the cylinder's conclusion.
After the unit is sealed, you'll be able to start your pumping period. Of the procedure, the penis of yours is going to increase in dimension and erect.
After the lamp operates from the bath, that shows you're in the optimum stress level. You are able to begin with 1 2 cm much more erection measurements and this also may even go higher. The task will not be very painful though you are going to feel the strain when you pull. The moment soreness is sensed, launch the valve to put out a little amount of stress preventing injuries.
With all the strain arriving at the maximum level of its, let it remain for 5-6 mins. When accomplished, keep on the release valve and discharge the penis of yours. The whole process should be repeated two or perhaps much more occasions. 3 cycles should be finished in 10-20 mins. This will likely reward you with optimum advantage as well as speedier consequence.
For comfort, ensure to warm up initially. You've to have loose-fitting condition as well as a flaccid (that involves the scrotum) of yours. Small scrotum is sucked within the pump and this also can be quite uneasy. Penis workout methods are additionally required prior and following the periods of yours and also ensure you make use of h2o that is warm too. In case you've tub at home, even the greater.

Payload
You’re moving to the moon? Does it come with a swimming pool? 
History prepared us for the failure of computer AI to estimate mankind’s tendency to obliterate every extra inch afforded them.  Earth was rapidly collapsing from the weight of climate change, and the imminent move to our final home, Ganymede (Saturn’s 7th satellite) was forced.  
Yale Sevarin was a witness to the last straw.
Russia dropped a RS-28 Sarmat thermonuclear bomb atop US NAMRU-3; a Naval Medical Research Facility loaded with pathogens, viruses.  Just to help you sleep at night, NAMRU-3 was a Level-3 containment facility. Think lethal airborne infections.  It was the Commander’s last near a time in a combat zone.  
Two-years later the International Federation of Earth, (aka Saturn One Mission) became the most important thing in the world, literally.  Losing Naples to rising sea-levels, along with the priciest real estate in America, wasn’t enough to engage-funded action.  Even after The Bomb the thought of it being too late was impossible to communicate to a population swooned by Energy Czars and members of a solid minority of political fanatics lived to neutralize the science-laden doomsday warnings. What turned the world’s powers into a hive of information sharing and cooperative engineering and merging space program research and tech?  
 The Seats of Power were held at gunpoint by folks who understood that Cowboy Moosaholic demonstrating defecating in an outhouses was meant for them.  Mothers exploded in panic when Puppy Patches sang to children about the use iodine pills to interrupt absorption of radioactive iodine in their thyroid glands. The idea of purifying everything that passed the lips was discommoding for a drive-thru culture.  The line may have been crossed when Daniel Tiger told kids about the inevitable slaughtering of pets and livestock to save resources for themselves and to reduce methane in our atmosphere.  It was too late but it got everyone’s attention.  
Commander Sevarin became synonymous with heroism.  After a decade in the Air Force, applying his particular skill in managing payload and all integrated systems was the sole factor in the last plane out of Qatar to carry more troops to safety on a Hercules C-130 than engineers would ever certify as possible.  
The carrier held 45,000 pounds of cargo, 64 fully prepared paratroopers at 160 pounds, 92 ground-troops of varied weight loaded with 27 pounds of protective gear for starters. There were 11,000 souls and dogs at Al Udeid’s Airbase.  There were other Hercules there, but not enough room for all based on standard weights and measures.  Yale tried to implement a thorough and detailed passenger arrangement, but the scene mirrored the evacuation of the Titanic.  By falling into training, but having so many extra bodies; they’d done the equivalent of having a lifeboat with two rich ladies and a fur coat.   By the time the last plane was being swarmed by stragglers, if you can call so many dead men and women that; they had no choice but to listen to Pilot Commander Sevarin.
He knew at worst he’d only had about ten or fifteen percent of the population to worry about. The physics would be daunting but he felt calculable.  He began dumping chutes, oxygen, fuel beyond the amount needed to get to Point Z.  The dedicated military personnel knew, as they watched their first mushroom cloud from a technically safe position; that they needed to go-now and they didn’t question Sevarin’s order to remove seats, water, ammo, weapons, packs, palettes, phones, vehicles, weapons, ammo,  boots, and all but skivvies.  The Commander kept to himself that he fully expected to throw a few men into the ocean if his calculations proved flawed.  
Staff Sergeant Louis Felly was liked, as a budgeting officer he interacted with every aspect of base life. But his desk job had helped him gain a lot of weight in recent years. At 280 pounds, he was afraid to leave his office, had no weapon, and one could imagine his heart and lungs were well represented by his purple face, and sweat-soaked body.  He was the last one to make it to the Hercules, when Sevarin’s precise reorganization of bodies had been completed.  Felly looked like he might arrest on the tarmac.  The Commander knew even one more thing would cause him to spend precious time, as much as 45 minutes to figure out a way to fit Felly.   The fastest way was to remove two existing passengers, which he couldn’t stomach.  
Yale descended the rear-ramp and stopped the heaving, sobbing mess of a man.  
Having to yell his message made it physically painful to doom the fellow.
“I’m at max capacity! You don’t have a choice, I don’t! Others will come.  I’ll radio for rescue!”
Felly looked behind him at the hangers and abandoned buildings.  Even the dogs had gotten on board the other planes that were or had taken-flight.  This whole base would soon be a target, like other Allied bases in the region.  
Felly grabbed his ankles sobbing, with half-naked, mostly young folks laying, leaning, stacked, hyperventilating and not talking on board behind Sevarin, who was six-foot-two compared to Felly’s panting, slobbering oven-mit of a body.  
“I’m sorry, sir. Wait for rescue, we have to leave as is!”  
Felly screamed some of his last words. Sevarin gave him that.
“Just give my wife a message:  tell my wife that our son’s only job in his life will be to kill you.”
Felly then rolled down the end of the ramp and away, the exit-ramp lifted and no one had to be thrown into the ocean on the way home.
A decade later, the moon’s Dark Side compound was completed, the other two domes-MoonLife itself- would reside. All twelve American Flags and the four Japanese remained where astronauts originally planted them, the domes were built on either side as a memorial. The flags of China, Russia, and India were retired without publicity.  Life on earth was hot enough.
It took five years to ready the moon for it’s first residents once the Dark Side dome was completed.  A fine first run, implementing the solution to construction materials:  moondust and cyanobacteria.   By combining the baccili with moondust and some water and gelatin, the bacteria is activated.  Going into a feeding frenzy and replicating it bonds to the minerals and keeps going until it hits the walls of whatever mold you put it in.  When it has nowhere to go, the composite stops growing and dies; hardening into a green-tinted concrete or a clear media that would become the dome.  To NASA and the newly founded International Space Federation, the green-tint disappeared two-months before the first citizens arrived via the space elevators stationed around allied nations, and from the International Space Station, they would take another space elevator to the moon.  
Once arriving, there was no major physical acclimation because of the atmospheric and habitability management.  Earthlings would arrive on the moon in less than a week and disembark to find themselves in a Disneyland-like Utopia organized around a simulated beach, a town green with a faux wooden gazebo, moving sidewalks, trams encircled each dome with air-locked stops named after peace-loving leaders.  Hydroponic gardens, simulated parks with actual seeded trees from earth, a public pool, recreation center and a mix of three story apartments, efficiency pods and more stately single-family homes in each of the two domes.  The colony was called Saturn-1.  
On Ganymede, now only a three-year flight due to Japan’s innovation in comburent recycled propulsion, as it was named.   Having reformulated the cyanobacteria concept for Ganymede’s composition, the first and much larger Ganymede dome was finished a mere fifteen years after the Dark Side dome became actively inhabited by engineers and their families. Saturn 2 Colony was a bigger and better Disneyland.  It had to be, because the planet we knew was rapidly becoming a large scale Pripyat amusement park.  
Among the hundreds of specialists who created these worlds, was Pilot Commander Yale Sevarin. He had the ability to make a quick-lunch out of AI simulations.  How could a computer value the agony of reminiscing about the smell of warm, freshly plucked strawberries or processing the agony of Felly’s fate?  He was among the first to arrive on Saturn 1.  Because of his mental steel, he was consulted as to who could not come to the moon or salvation on Ganymede.  The incredibly ill or infirm, the mentally-ill, murderers, rapists, pedophiles, finally all livestock and pets (although DNA from all species of living things not human as possible were amply collected).  It wasn’t a moral judgement.  There was simply no way to accommodate their special needs and potential disastrous impact.  There were no police or prisons off-earth.  Hopefully forever.
When Yale turned 63, he was offered retirement.  The world sighed as the first outpost of hope was now a functioning community and the first dome on Ganymede was ready for the residents that had made MoonLife home and homey.   It was not his plan to go there.
He was exhausted from digesting problems that involved casualties, human traits, and payloads. The Federation didn’t ask him to continue in his role as the flights to build Saturn 2.  They could see he was fully shell-shocked.  Sevarin’s ears rang with the vibrations of every machine on the moon, even when no one else claimed to hear it.  Living inside a dome was depressing enough for a pilot.
Being confined for so many years and immersed in unpleasant noises, and daily doses of ‘live or die’, MoonLife outdoors was his reward.  No one but he could sleep in the parks, by the beach or treat the town green’s gazebo as his mailing address.  
His homeless apparition was popular on MoonLife, much like the first children born on Saturn 1 (Heidi and Kevin were blogged and vlogged about endlessly in the effort to promote normalcy on the moon.  They were more popular than any Royal Baby on earth.)  Commander Sevarin was a war hero; he’d been given a commendation by the President, his arrangement of the survivors on the plane generated movies, news stories and tall tales alike.  
Such was his fame that Administrators at The Control Tower installed a sealed box for fans to drop donations, love letters, banana powder, offers to live in their homes and requests for interviews.  His rejection of these offerings and his refusal to be that guy anymore made further appealing.  Yale hoped to live long enough to see something like woods here so he could live in a tent and enjoy the simulated weather as if he were still in Connecticut, before he joined the Air Force and was enlisted by NASA.  
It was PTSD, but everyone had post-traumatic-stress-disorder in a Post Cairo world with endless angst over the Pre Cairo world.  The Federation officials had no problem granting him some freedoms given how he earned his place.  Saturn 1 was his oyster and he kept his security-clearance in exchange for attending regular status quorums at The Federation Control Tower.  For a few hours a month he got to sleep on the simulated beach.  
Besides, there were no insane people on the moon.  He was just special.
Eyes closed, warmish air, the itch of silica in his thinning hair.  He looked up at the rise of the Dome, able to see real stars and a crescent Earth, not man-made clouded blue skies.  The wave machine generated slow, slurping, laps against the bottom of his bare feet.  So glad he insisted on the addition of layered audio enhancement.  It created the illusion of a vast ocean like The Atlantic or Pacific-which would surely dwarfed by the thawing waterways on Saturn 2. Yale could imagine visiting that; but he wouldn’t want to live there.
Sevarin opened his eyes feeling sociable, deciding to visit his donation box at the gazebo.  Deep sleep happened.  So often he lacked adequate recharge because the terrified quaking Felly would stare him down from inside, or the nightmare where the space elevator would stop forever with him in it.  
He opened the donation box, its treasures tumbling through his hands like spigot-water.  Food, fan mail, art- red letter?  He opened it gamely.  
In the middle of the paper was written in generic block letters:
‘GANYMEDE IS AN EXPENSIVE ACT OF FUTILITY FOR YOU.”
Sunday wrecked by paranoid flashes, in this case, warranted.  Now he knew he was not the only lunatic on Saturn 1.
He was loathe to report the disturbing note, as it surely would trigger a psych house-call. In this case, gazebo-call.   Ever since he abandoned his place on the fancier array of homes laid before the town green, the psychological component of the MoonLife team had ordered regular visits.  PTSD was a known factor in violence, anti-government ideology, addiction problems, etc.  
Yale didn’t aid his cause by growing his beard and hair and often going barefoot always sporting rumpled and mismatched clothing. No, they might take away his freedom to stay outdoors.  
Sevarin was out of retirement with his new role:  Secret Police.    
His first day was spent at Tower Control, where Yale was known to appear with coffee for his former colleagues then work the terminals, reviewing data. Occasionally he’d find something they’d missed.  The red letter’s author had to be caught on video.  CCTV footage would end the mystery.   He found instead a three-hour loop of nothing happening at the gazebo repeated the entire night.  Clearly, only someone in the Tower had access to that kind of alteration.
All but one-person was busy preparing for the first Saturn 2 transport in two weeks.  The trend continued as he returned to the Gazebo. On a berm intended to be a gathering place for Saturn 1, claimed a generous view left to right of the finest homes-part of the Tower Control High Priority perks.  He went directly to his donation box.  A basket of potatoes and another red letter.  He looked at the outside this time:
 “TO:  COMMANDER YALE SEVARIN”.   No ‘from’. The message inside:
“YOU WILL KNOW ME SOON ENOUGH”.
 He wished he could burn-it and piss on it.  He jammed it in a pocket in his wrinkled, not so clean trousers.  This, like the potatoes would find a home in the air-lock by the Dark Side Dome later.
Liri Wilson’s morning was routine enough.  Aneeka, her live-in au-pair and housekeeper made coffee.  NASA had created a space-substitute and a prelim bean but it lacked earth-warmed inspiration.  It was the only imported earth product aside from rare quantities of aged booze.
Her class of residence had three-stories and walls that reached the top of the dome.  Just a foot of bacilli plexi between her swanky party and certain death.  
The automatic blinds which retracted almost unnoticed on a schedule, featured a large dark splotch of a shadow amidst the horizontal ones created by the slats.  
When Aneeka appeared with three-year-old Jeson in her arms and rubbing his eyes; Liri enjoined her.
“What do you think that is?”  Aneeka was only twenty-two, having been born to some of the original workers in the Dark Side Dome.  First she looked at the shadow Missus was pointing at, then up at the dome’s ceiling.
“Maybe a shirt? A moon rock?”  
“How’d I miss that? How did maintenance miss that!?”
“Show Mister?” Aneeka added.
“Right I will. Anyhoo, let’s get that boy fed, we’ll go to the beach maybe?”  With the kiss from a baby she moved on.  Yale hadn’t noticed the peculiarity, too busy spying on Milo leaving that morning.
Nothing unusual. Milo heads Environment and Habitability. Down the line, a non-descript parade of civil servants looking bored being on the moon.  He had to assume the red-letter writer knew to lay-low.  Once a soldier and pilot; being homeless means anywhere is your home and you don’t really register with people.
Yale sat on the floor of the gazebo, eating a cake left in the box.  No further red letters.  As light dimmed, he sucked down substitute chocolate milk.  
Twenty minutes later he observed the Wilson House alight with a party-full of his targets.
The blinds were up because it was virtual night.  All of the familiar bosses glided down the moving sidewalk and hopped off at the front door.  It was a normal party until Milo activated the opalescent privacy screen in his living room.  The only way to ensure no eavesdropping, filming, recording of any kind. Nicknamed the “Cone of Silence” after a television antiquity from earth.   Interesting.  Who were the high rollers playing blackout with?  Suddenly, Liri reappeared with empty glasses, fixing to refill them in the kitchen.  She saw the “Cone of Silence” Paused then quickly but delicately grabbed the comm handset on the kitchen wall and listened.  You couldn’t block a hard wired comm, but they had no reason to worry about a wife.  
She appeared spooked and spastically replaced the handset, scurrying out of site with her fresh cocktails.
When the party concluded, Yale perked-up.  Spilling out of the front door, all said ta-rah, nite-nite, etc., recoupled and let the sidewalk coast them home-except for a Science Officer, Rami Mandoon-he waved his wife ahead. His head scanned ceiling to house and back.  
The Lewis house lowered its blinds and Yale dragged his finger from Rami’s head to the vantage point which held Mandoon’s focus: the ceiling of the dome. A dark patch that looked like a misshapen flower broke-up the illusion of stars in the simulated night sky.  
The next morning, Milo called after having made an early silent exit; skipping breakfast with the baby.  
“Liri:  listen to me.  Don’t interrupt.  Call Akeena’s parents and have them meet you at the platform for Shuttle 2.   Be there before three p.m. You cannot be late. You must not take a later shuttle to the elevator.  This is serious.  I cannot tell you why and I have to get off comm now.  Are you clear?  Say NOTHING to anyone. Tell me you heard me.”
“Darling there’s a sort of greenish ice on the celing…”
“Shuttle 2, three p.m. I love you.”  Comm broken.
She tried connecting over and over but his comm was shut-down.  
As this conversation ended, Yale was in Tower Control, reviewing system status for everything from environment, to transport.   He’d seen the ice.  Fight or flight would be the administrative response to something that clearly would have appeared in A.I. data if nothing else.  He’d seen no technicians milling around Wilson’s home or anywhere out of the norm.
It failed to show anything but the routine.  He would be panicked if he had a wife and child, like Milo does.  He focused on him as he delivered coffees and scratched his beard exaggerating his loopy retired boredom.  Lewis’s cup remained untouched on his office desk.  
It occurred to him, that the Dark Side dome might yield data.  Integrity loss could be overlooked because it was hidden from view, it’s the oldest structure on MoonLife.  It took fewer than ten minutes to see no one was living there, maintenance was offline.  True, the technicians had largely left for Saturn 2.  They’d left last year, to make schedule on construction with the planned evacuation happening and needing to be ready for inhabitants in six years when they would arrive.  But no one left?
As furiously as he could, Yale requisitioned an engineering drone, taking it offline first and cloaking it.  They were the longest 25 minutes of his life.  He hummed to look casual and laughed at nothing to avoid the appearance of actually doing something very important.
He turned the cameras on.  Even with night-vision employed it was shockingly obvious that the dome was not smooth, clear plexi anymore, but a lumpy curved rock.  The synechococcus bacillus hadn’t died once the forms were filled, but they had merely gone dormant.  The air-lock between Dome 2 and this first one, was not only shut down but devoured by what reminded him of sparkling, dripping candle wax, blobbing over each new layer.  This had not happened in the year since the construction teams had left for Saturn 2. This was why the first import of fresh Terra people was hard scheduled in two weeks.  Sevarin tingled recalling The Federation treating his retirement three years previous as an honor for his life’s dedication to humanity.  He thought himself a special case and was desperate to stop worrying about other people’s lives so he embraced what he now saw as a con.   How could the bacilli remain dormant when we had artificial rain, a beach, pools and lakes? They only needed water and without the gelatin engineered, the reincarnated bacteria would grow into a concrete, splitting the protective domes.  
Death to all here with certainty.  
Yale then disguised a system query as a signal and repeat ping but what he really was doing was retrieving Milo’s comm activity, starting with this morning.

FOX2 appears to be alerted by Shirley Mews (Spouse of Director Alton Mews, 2nd In Command, Saturn 1) who is safely on Shuttle 3, departing at 1500 p.m.  FOX2 leaves platform for Shuttle 2 and breaches safety fence to communicate with Mrs. Mews, who expresses visible panic and gestures indicate she has invited FOX2 on board.  At this point FOX2 climbs between cars, boarding Shuttle 3.
Simultaneous to this incident, The Smithson Family and Jeson Lewis choose to board Shuttle 2 when it arrives.  Akeena Smithson is seen and heard to be screaming for FOX2, who cannot hear her from inside of Shuttle 3.   Presumably informed by FOX2, who was directed by FOX1; the Smithsons and minor Jeson board and the doors close on all departing shuttles.  
Some alarm appears to spread among those who are waiting for Shuttles 1, 4, 5 and 6, operating normally with local stops between Main Shuttle Station and Space Elevator Docking.  
Subjects directed to Shuttle 2 all appear to have boarded as directed securely on 06/13/52. No evidence of a security breach on their parts.  Included on Shuttle 2 are all executives and technical staff who were needed to implement OperationVACATION, but who are deemed as non-essential for activities on Saturn 2; and who’s presence on Saturn 2 may be disruptive upon completion of Operation VACATION.  
At 1509 p.m. FOX1 and Comm.Pilot Sevarin (ret.) arrive at Shuttle Platform 2 after being visualized on CCTV running from Control Tower at full speed.
FOX1 is observed collapsing, possibly crying. Vocal enough to draw the attention of residents arriving at Shuttle Station for local rides.  ISF COMMAND has grave concern about FOX1 and Comm.Pilot Sevarin alerting Saturn 1 remaining population.  
FOX1 is observed likely ingestion of cyanide capsule behind commission pin on uniform, made standard from the start of Operation MoonLand.  Appearing to have a seizure while still sitting on the ground, then fall to his right side and cease moving.  
Unaware residents attempt to call for help at Tower Control, which will result in no answer as the TC is empty on relevant Floors/Offices Three and Two.  
KSC has initiated 3 day simulated rainstorm ahead of schedule immediately to force residents indoors.  
The tactic appears to work everywhere except for The Shuttle Station, where residents are hovering around a deceased FOX1.  
CCTV also observes Comm.Pilot (ret.) Sevarin searching FOX1’s clothing and person.
Highlighted at minute-mark is a section of video running 19.2 seconds, attached with full CCTV report on the incident for review.  
Comm.Pilot Sevarin (ret.) retrieves a red piece of paper, unfolds it, reads it, then walks to CCTV Unit #986S1.  Subject climbs on a nearby bench and holds one side of the paper to unit’s lens. It reads (confirmed) in FOX1’s handwriting:
“TO:  COMMANDER PILOT YALE SEVARIN, ‘HERO’
FROM:  LOUIS FELLY, SON OF CAPTAIN FELLY, MURDERED.”
After holding this side of the paper to CCTV Unit #986S1 for approximately .09 seconds, flips the red paper over to reveal a second message, which Sevarin holds up to the same CCTV unit’s lens for remaining 10.07 seconds.  It reads (same handwriting):
“MY ONLY JOB IN THIS LIFE WAS TO KILL YOU.
I TOLD THEM YOU WOULD TRY TO STOP THEM.”
At 1539 p.m., the aforementioned red note disappears from view of CCTV Unit #986S1.
Updates to follow.
 Sevarin felt badly for Milo, even though he’d hatched a successful plan to follow him all the way from his childhood to the moon to finish his father’s business.  Certainly Milo didn’t plan on suicide but he’d missed his ride to Saturn 2.  
For the first time since he arrived at MoonLand, Sevarin felt alone because this was the first time his story was important.  If he told it, the people left behind under the cannibalistic Domes would react to their imminent demise with the same panic seen on The Titanic.   But all of the lifeboats were gone, our leadership having taken just two that appeared to be important, to a dirty escape.  Milo was right, I would’ve hampered the IFS and NASA; looking for a solution and trying to engage the hive up until the last minute.   They decided to save themselves.  
Sevarin walked down the still moving sidewalk to his gazebo to shelter from the pounding, but thankfully warm simulated summer rain.  Looking up at the simulated overcast daytime sky, hoping they’d let the program go and grant him sunset over his beloved beach.  He’d find an umbrella by then.  
Yale wanted to live. That’s human.  But this journey from Al Udeid to the moon had cracked him and soon the microbes would fill the void.  He grew bored and shuffled to Milo and Liri’s home, having removed his security key from his body.  The plan was to watch some movies and figure out what was going to happen when the rain stopped.  It really didn’t matter if it did.  But on route to his destination, he noticed in the windows of lesser residents, in ground floor apartments, and in storefronts laying inert on the floors of their sealed homes.  Some were still besotted with rain, having done exactly what it was meant to do. Made sense.  You can’t panic and alert family and friends on Earth if you’re dead.  
He wasn’t sure it was safe indoors at this point.  Thankfully the people who pitied him left some lovely food in his box, and he’d held onto a book they’d left there. He also had a comm device but it was predictably offline so he couldn’t find entertainment that way.  
The next day, he awoke on the gazebo which was showing signs of reproducing and becoming uncomfortable.  As were the sidewalks, which were now jammed up by the calcification gone wild.  He heard a sonic boom and looked up to see see what was probably one of the Shuttles feathering down in small luminescent shreds.  Two left for Ganymede and one, in a sense had come back.  
Yale spend a fair bit of time wondering what the plan on earth was.  We’d been telling the public for nearly thirty years “Stay here and die, come to Saturn 2 and live!”  Now there was no safe place to move the population in groups.  They might get a lot of people to the Space Station by elevator if they hurry, and we all know who those folks would be. And those left behind still had guns and bombs and trucks; once the infantry men and women realized they were being left to die, they might not protect those elevators very long.  
CLASSIFIED:
DATE:                        06/15/52
MEMO FROM ISF SPACE STATION-1800 p.m.
SUBJECT:  STATUS OF SATURN 2 TRANSPORT.
AUTHOR:  GENERAL MICHAEL THREFALL, ISF
This is to confirm SIMULTANEOUS ENGAGEMENTS OF TARGET, AKA, SHUTTLE 2.
NOTHING INTACT, SOME DEBRIS FALLING TO LUNAR ATMOSPHERE. NO WITNESSES PRESUMED ON MOONLIFE /JUPITER 1 BASE.  
SUCCESSFUL RECEPTION OF SHUTTLE 3; REQUEST INSTRUCTION AS TO HANDLING OF UNEXPECTED PX. (FOX2, SPOUSE OF FOX1, PRESUMED DECEASED BASED ON CLASSIFIED REPORT DATED 06/14/52).  
FOX2 EXTREMELY DISTRAUGHT AS HER CHILD WAS ON SHUTTLE 2.  
MEDICAL EXAMINATION PROVIDES INSIGHT THAT FOX2 IS HEALTHY AND PREGNANT, FIRST TRIMESTER.  
WISH TO CONFIRM EXISTENCE OF PILOT COMMANDER YALE SEVARIN IF POSS.
UPDATES TO FOLLOW.
 Being last man on pseudo-earth meant he was free to commit breaking and entering; in the hopes that whatever they pumped in the domiciles to kill potential chaos had dissipated.  
“EUREKA!” celebrated Yale, adorning a facemask made of his shirt.  Smashing the living windows at 12 Adams Street, where Milo lived. Gas and air hissed out.   He returned a few hours later, just as the scheduled rain program finally ended.   Hoping to have a luxe sleep before he drowned himself at the beach, he raided the Wilson’s pantry, closets and screening room.  
Mid-film he realized that Milo wasn’t included in the escape plan.  He’d serve a purpose, providing he got on Shuttle 2, since that’s the one he told Liri to board and the one that probably got blown-out of the sky.   When those on earth demanded to know why people on Ganymede weren’t answering hails?    The IFS on Saturn 2 would have a name.  God rest all of your souls, there is nothing more that we can do because of the incompetence and sedition of a man in disguise, Captain Lewis Felly Jr.   Yes, the son of that guy.  
It made Sevarin laugh as he stepped further into the fake surf than he ever had.  The wave machine had stopped generating but the audio enhancement thankfully was inconsequential to shutting down and killing everyone on MoonLife.   It made him laugh to think of poor, pathetic Felly.

Purchasing a CT Simulator and X-Ray Tubes
Before a patient begins treatment with radiotherapy, a team of experts will meet to develop a specific plan for each individual patient. The first step in the planning process may involve the use of a CT simulator, which includes a CT scan of the area of the body that needs radiation treatment. This piece of equipment is essential during the initial planning process and is a great asset to any clinic or organization to have available for use. Many considerations should be made when purchasing radiotherapy equipment such as a CT simulator, the software and cooling systems, and the purchase of an x-ray tube.
Choosing a CT Simulator Based on the X-Ray Tube
The most expensive component of a CT Simulator that also needs to be replaced the most is the x-ray tube. The x-ray tube is required to endure very high heat loads, preferably having the ability to store 5 million heat units (MHU) or more. The use of high heat unit tubes provides a longer life of the unit, which will, in turn, save on downtime when needing to be replaced. In choosing a CT Simulator to purchase, it is best to base the decision on the tube it comes with. A system that may be less costly upfront may have a tube that does not last very long and could ultimately cost more in the long run than if initially purchased with a better tube, to begin with.
Best X-Ray Tubes for Your Buck
When looking at CT Simulators for purchase, the tubes as explained above are important to consider in longevity. Each system comes with a specific tube and no upgrade options are available. Some of the most popular x-ray tubes for CT Simulation include:
GE RT 4 MCS7079 Varian Mini Hercules 7.5 HUU - This tube is well known for not being the best, but perhaps one of the worst-performing tubes with a short life span as well. Another downfall is that Dunlee replacement tubes are not offered for this model and must have a Varian tube from GE that can cost roughly $200,000 new. There are used options for replacements for under $100,000. Overall, this tube should come with a large caution sign showing the many reviews from users to stay away from this system if possible.
GE RT 16 Hercules MX240 8.0 MHU - These next tubes have a reasonable life expectancy of about 6,000 to 10,000 patient scans performed however, they have been known to exceed this amount and go beyond 15,000 scans. The tubes are warranted from GE and Dunlee for 6,000 scans. There are new replacement options from the Dunlee manufacturer and Reevo 240G that are priced at $195,000 new. They can be purchased used for $75,000- $100,000 as well.  
Philips MRC 600 8.0 MHU - This third option is by far the best in value with tubes that are among the longest-lasting on the market. The x-ray tubes exceed 800,000 to 1,6000,000 scan seconds or roughly 4 to 7 years at a mid-range patient occupancy level. On average, they can cost $140,000 new and $40,000-70,000 used.
Weighing Pros and Cons
Purchasing equipment for radiotherapy is never an easy task with having so many options available, both new and used provided as well. When choosing tubes at a lower price point, it may give a company good value in the short-term, but keep in mind, it will need to be replaced more frequently. If you don't want to worry about needing to replace the tubes as often, a higher-end tube is your best option, but it will cost more. Ultimately, you need to take into consideration your facilities' unique needs for the best solution available.
As an independent LINAC service company, Acceletronics is dedicated to delivering the best equipment performance and services for linear accelerators and CT scanners across all major brands and models, as well as new and refurbished LINAC systems for sale.  More information can be found online at https://www.acceletronics.com/.

UNSPOOLED: Winches, when and how to use yours!
You were sick of hitting the 4WD tracks on your own, and through lack of confidence taking the chicken track every time you hit an obstacle. So the time came, you bit the bullet, did your research and grabbed yourself the best value 4WD winch you could find, it was delivered in good time and now is sitting in the box it came in on your garage floor.
LET US CHANGE ALL OF THAT!
This is our best and easiest how to guide, of not only how to install your winch, but also on it’s a basic operation and maintenance guide, for a quick reference!
First thing is first, open up your box and make sure that everything you need is included and ready to go.
The box should include;
– 12,000lb Winch
– Mounting bolts (included; 3/8”UNC x 1-1/4” Dacromet coated bolts and spring washers provided (at least grade 8.8).
– Winch cable
– Winch Hook
– Hawse Fairlead
– Heavy Duty wiring
– Control box
– Controller handle
– Wireless module
MOUNTING YOUR WINCH:
The Domin8r X Winch uses 4 Secure footings that can be used to mount it to an approved winch cradle or winch compatible bull bar.
A material thickness of around 5mm is recommended for a winch mounting plate, and specific fitment instructions for your cradle or bull bar should be followed to ensure the winch is secured according to the mounting system manufacturers best recommendations.
When mounting your winch make sure the winch will spool the cable, in and out from the bottom of the spool and that there is nothing on the mount that will foul with the movement of the cable to the fairlead.
Before your winch is bolted into place you may have to remove the bottom 2 mounting bolts to fasten the fairlead in place. However, on some applications a Hercules Offset Fairlead may have to be purchase due to the mounting locations opening for the winch cable, the fairlead’s job is to guide the winch rope onto the drum evenly.
youtube
  ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Pay close attention to proper electrical cable connection per the diagram below;
Short red cable (B’) connecting to the red terminal (B) of the motor.
Short black cable with yellow jacket (C’) connecting to the yellow terminal © of the motor.
Short black cable with black jacket (D’) connecting to the black terminal (D) of the motor.
Thin black cable(a’) connecting to terminal (A) of the motor.
Long black cable (1.8m), one terminal (A’) connecting to the bottom terminal (A) of the motor, and the other terminal negative (-) connecting to negative (-) terminal of battery.
Long red cable positive (+) connecting to positive (+) terminal of battery.
  NOTE:
Your battery must be kept in good condition.
Be sure battery cables are not drawn taught across any surfaces, which could possibly damage them.
Corrosion on electrical connections will reduce performance or may cause a short.
Clean all connections especially in remote control switch and receptacle.
In salty environments use a silicone sealer to protect from corrosion.
Check electrical cables and connections after each use.
  HOW TO WINCH:
Ensure the vehicle is secure by applying the parking brake.
Spool out the winch rope either with the controller or by releasing the clutch mechanism only as fat as you need to, one way to reduce the amount of cable spooled out is to use a Winch Extension Strap to the desired length and connect to your Tree Trunk Protector on a suitable and stable anchor point.
Disengaging the winch clutch allows faster unspooling of the cable for hooking onto your anchor point.
Operating the free spool clutch:
To disengage the clutch, rotate the clutch knob to the “FREE-SPOOL” position. This disengages the gearbox and cable brake, allowing your cable to be free spooled off the drum.
To re-engage the clutch, rotate the clutch knob to the “ENGAGED” position.
Double check your recovery setup to ensure it is safe – the winch is now ready to pull.
Plug in the winch hand controller. It is recommended that the winching operation takes place from the driver’s position to ensure maximum safety and vehicle control during operation (steering, brakes etc.).
To commence winching operation, start vehicle engine, select 1st gear low range on your transmission, and maintain a steady idle.
Operate the hand control using the spool in button until the vehicle gains traction and can drive free.
Regularly check the winch to ensure rope is spooling onto the drum evenly.
Always use a winch cable dampener on metal recovery components to minimize the risks of recoil in the case of gear failure.
NOTE:
Never winch with your vehicle in park or with the handbrake on which would damage to your vehicle.
Always use a winch in conjunction with a rated recovery kit to prolong the life of your winch cable.
Keep your body parts, clothing, hair and jewellery clear of any components of a recovery to prevent injury.
Equipment loaded with weight has a lot of energy, on it, always approach with caution, and avoid if possible
Never allow anyone to stand near the cable or in line with the rope behind the winch. If the rope should slip or brake, it can suddenly whip back towards the winch, causing a hazard for anyone in the area. Always stand well to the side while winching.
Never use the winch if the rope is frayed, kinked or damaged.

Muscle Building 101: Getting Stacked in Shreveport!
Fitness Expo Fitness Expo -
So you want to bulk up?
Regardless of whether you want to get into bodybuilding for aesthetics, athletics, or simply to look stacked when out on the town, everyone (including yourself) needs to start somewhere. And when it comes to building muscle, getting off on the right foot is critical to avoiding injury and actually seeing the progress you’re looking for.
This quick guide to muscle building was put together to help the residents of Shreveport learn the fundamental concepts behind fast, safe and effective muscle growth.
And if you’re in search of Shreveport fitness gym equipment to get the job done right, or simply to mix up your routine, check out the Hoist Mi7 Functional Training System. This beast is jam-packed with resistance exercise options so you can always keep things fresh.
Muscle Building 101: Training Tips
Warming Up
Yeah, we know, it’s not sexy and it’s not very fun. Yet properly warming up is a key component to preparing your muscles and cardiovascular system for the workout and resistance ahead. A proper warm-up should last between 10-15 minutes and can include calisthenics, dynamic stretching, or a quick round on the treadmill or elliptical
Speaking of warming up, here are two of our favorite pieces of Shreveport exercise fitness equipment that you can find at Fitness Expo Stores.
A quick warm-up will be a breeze with either of these models:
Horizon Elite T9 Treadmill
Matrix Fitness C7xe Climbmill
Compound Lifts
Presuming you’ve had adequate training or help learning how to do them, compound lifts should make up the core of your muscle building program. Utilizing multi-joint exercises such as squats, deadlifts, bench press, and rows can build up the core foundational strength you’ll need to stabilize your joints and safely progress to a higher weight for isolation exercises later on.
Using a Level or Resistance or Weight that you can Handle
No one likes a show-off. And you’ll like it even less when you took too much off the bar and can’t lift it off of your own chest, or tear a rotator cuff. Trust us. Neither is a fun experience.
Opt to start with a weight that is challenging, but that you can hit an 8-10 rep set with. Each week you can increase this amount by 3-5% or as necessary. The last couple reps should be a struggle, but not so much that you have the inability to maintain proper form.
Speaking of Form
The proper form can mean the difference between actually “activating” and isolating the muscles you are trying to work on, vs activation of accessory muscles and little gain on the scale. If you’re looking to put on muscle, proper form is imperative for both growth and injury prevention.
Rep Ranges
There’s no right or wrong answer here, and really, the rep range will vary depending on your level of skill set and goals. But given the fact that this is an “introductory” guide to muscle building, we suggest that the best range to start with is somewhere between 6-12 reps per set. This range provides a nice balance between building strength and endurance, as well as stacking on the lbs.
Rest Between Sets
You might feel like Hercules once the blood gets pumping and you’re throwing around all that iron, but even the mightiest can do well from taking a breather. Science has shown that there is a period of time after each set during which our muscles will NOT be able to operate at full capacity/force.
For small muscle isolation exercises (such as biceps or shoulders), a rest period of between 30 seconds to 1:30 minutes is sufficient. For compound exercises (such as a deadlift or squat), or those that target large muscle groups (i.e. legs and back), a rest period of between 2-3 minutes is ideal.
Occasionally Mix Things Up
Our bodies are highly adaptable, and over time, given the repetition of your routine, you’ll body will become accustomed to the regimen and you’ll notice increases in muscle mass start to taper off or cease altogether.
Varying your rep ranges can also do wonders for instigating muscle hypertrophy (growth). Different weight loads, angles and rep ranges emphasize different types of muscle fibers, helping you to ultimately achieve enhanced muscle quality and growth. Progression – volume is the name of the game
As mentioned earlier, our bodies adapt quickly to the stressors we place on it. In order to generate the proper stimuli necessary to result in continual muscle growth you will need to do one of two things:
Increase the number of reps/sets in your routine
Increase the weight used in your routine
Each (or both) of the above need to be done systematically with small, yet challenging weekly or bi-weekly increases.
Rest Weeks
In much the same way that varying the intensities of your workouts can spur muscle growth, taking a week is not only good for full recovery and rejuvenation, it can also shock your body back into anabolism at a higher rate once you come back to the gym.
Stubborn Growth
No matter if you’re an amateur or trained professional, we all have those stubborn body parts that just don’t want to grow. For those, you might need to get a little creative. The following are a few pro tips on ways you can spur growth in stubborn muscles:
1. Drop Sets: Start with your normal weight. Continue with reps until failure. Rest, then reduce the weight by 5-10% and continue again until failure. Repeat this until you reach a weight of only 1/5 – 1/10th what you started with.
2. Rest-Pause: With the rest pause method you incur additional “time under tension” when lifting. Halfway through your extension or contraction, pause for 1-3 seconds, then complete the exercise.
Save the Abs Until Last
Your abs are the core stabilizing muscles in your body. They help keep you balanced and brace your body against the strain of weights. Training abs too early could lead to core fatigue and injury later on in your session.
Closing Thoughts on Bulking up in Shreveport
Building muscle can be a fun and challenging aspect of your fitness routine. But it’s also one of the best workouts you can get, improving blood pressure, balance, reducing injury, and more.
If you’re looking to get into bodybuilding or simply putting on a few pounds of lean muscle, give FitnessExpoStores a call or drop by today. Our local reps would love to learn more about your goals and how we can help.

1. Drop Sets: Start with your normal weight. Continue with reps until failure. Rest, then reduce the weight by 5-10% and continue again until failure. Repeat this until you reach a weight of only 1/5 – 1/10th what you started with.
2. Rest-Pause: With the rest pause method you incur additional “time under tension” when lifting. Halfway through your extension or contraction, pause for 1-3 seconds, then complete the exercise.
Save the Abs Until Last
Your abs are the core stabilizing muscles in your body. They help keep you balanced and brace your body against the strain of weights. Training abs too early could lead to core fatigue and injury later on in your session.

Muscle Building 101: Getting Stacked in Shreveport!
Fitness Expo Fitness Expo -
So you want to bulk up?
Regardless of whether you want to get into bodybuilding for aesthetics, athletics, or simply to look stacked when out on the town, everyone (including yourself) needs to start somewhere. And when it comes to building muscle, getting off on the right foot is critical to avoiding injury and actually seeing the progress you’re looking for.
This quick guide to muscle building was put together to help the residents of Shreveport learn the fundamental concepts behind fast, safe and effective muscle growth.
And if you’re in search of Shreveport fitness gym equipment to get the job done right, or simply to mix up your routine, check out the Hoist Mi7 Functional Training System. This beast is jam-packed with resistance exercise options so you can always keep things fresh.
Muscle Building 101: Training Tips
Warming Up
Yeah, we know, it’s not sexy and it’s not very fun. Yet properly warming up is a key component to preparing your muscles and cardiovascular system for the workout and resistance ahead. A proper warm-up should last between 10-15 minutes and can include calisthenics, dynamic stretching, or a quick round on the treadmill or elliptical
Speaking of warming up, here are two of our favorite pieces of Shreveport exercise fitness equipment that you can find at Fitness Expo Stores.
A quick warm-up will be a breeze with either of these models:
Horizon Elite T9 Treadmill
Matrix Fitness C7xe Climbmill
Compound Lifts
Presuming you’ve had adequate training or help learning how to do them, compound lifts should make up the core of your muscle building program. Utilizing multi-joint exercises such as squats, deadlifts, bench press, and rows can build up the core foundational strength you’ll need to stabilize your joints and safely progress to a higher weight for isolation exercises later on.
Using a Level or Resistance or Weight that you can Handle
No one likes a show-off. And you’ll like it even less when you took too much off the bar and can’t lift it off of your own chest, or tear a rotator cuff. Trust us. Neither is a fun experience.
Opt to start with a weight that is challenging, but that you can hit an 8-10 rep set with. Each week you can increase this amount by 3-5% or as necessary. The last couple reps should be a struggle, but not so much that you have the inability to maintain proper form.
Speaking of Form
The proper form can mean the difference between actually “activating” and isolating the muscles you are trying to work on, vs activation of accessory muscles and little gain on the scale. If you’re looking to put on muscle, proper form is imperative for both growth and injury prevention.
Rep Ranges
There’s no right or wrong answer here, and really, the rep range will vary depending on your level of skill set and goals. But given the fact that this is an “introductory” guide to muscle building, we suggest that the best range to start with is somewhere between 6-12 reps per set. This range provides a nice balance between building strength and endurance, as well as stacking on the lbs.
Rest Between Sets
You might feel like Hercules once the blood gets pumping and you’re throwing around all that iron, but even the mightiest can do well from taking a breather. Science has shown that there is a period of time after each set during which our muscles will NOT be able to operate at full capacity/force.
For small muscle isolation exercises (such as biceps or shoulders), a rest period of between 30 seconds to 1:30 minutes is sufficient. For compound exercises (such as a deadlift or squat), or those that target large muscle groups (i.e. legs and back), a rest period of between 2-3 minutes is ideal.
Occasionally Mix Things Up
Our bodies are highly adaptable, and over time, given the repetition of your routine, you’ll body will become accustomed to the regimen and you’ll notice increases in muscle mass start to taper off or cease altogether.
Varying your rep ranges can also do wonders for instigating muscle hypertrophy (growth). Different weight loads, angles and rep ranges emphasize different types of muscle fibers, helping you to ultimately achieve enhanced muscle quality and growth. Progression – volume is the name of the game
As mentioned earlier, our bodies adapt quickly to the stressors we place on it. In order to generate the proper stimuli necessary to result in continual muscle growth you will need to do one of two things:
Increase the number of reps/sets in your routine
Increase the weight used in your routine
Each (or both) of the above need to be done systematically with small, yet challenging weekly or bi-weekly increases.
Rest Weeks
In much the same way that varying the intensities of your workouts can spur muscle growth, taking a week is not only good for full recovery and rejuvenation, it can also shock your body back into anabolism at a higher rate once you come back to the gym.
Stubborn Growth
No matter if you’re an amateur or trained professional, we all have those stubborn body parts that just don’t want to grow. For those, you might need to get a little creative. The following are a few pro tips on ways you can spur growth in stubborn muscles:
