I THINK US BIG-NAME ACTORS ARE THE HIGHEST PAID. BUT SOME CHINESE SUPERSTARS ARE MAKING BIG BUCKS AS WELL. BUT NON-MAINSTREAM ACTORS CAN GET PAID VERY LITTLE, WHETHER IN THE US OR ELSEWHERE. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A SECOND CAREER, YOU NEED A BIGGER AND BETTER IMAGE/WHAT-EVER-YOU-CALL-THE-PHOTO-YOU-CHOSE, SOMETHING THAT WILL COME ACROSS AS SUPERMAN-LIKE, HERO OF THE SOUND AND STAGE.  MY OWN PHOTO SUGGESTS I AM THE NEXT JAMES BOND.  | |

THE U.S. POST OFFICE SHOULD START SELLING STAMPS WITH DONALD TRUMP'S FACE, CHARGING AN EXTRA 50 CENTS THAT IS DONATED TO TRUMP FOR EVERY STAMP SOLD. WHAT A GREAT IDEA FOR MAKING THE U.S.A. GREAT AGAIN! =================================================== http://www.thewrap.com/state-department-...s-mar-a-lago-resort/ The Wrap State Department Cuts Blog Post That Touts Trump’s Mar-a-Lago Resort Federal executive department apologizes for “any misperception” Umberto Gonzalez | April 25, 2017 @ 11:27 AM Following criticism over ethical concerns, a State Department website has removed a blog post that trumpets President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort. The blog post, initially posted on ShareAmerica, a State Department platform used for sharing what it describes as “compelling stories,” detailed the history of Trump’s “Winter White House” ahead of Trump’s April 6 meeting there with Chinese President Xi Jinping. The State Department issued a statement Monday apologizing for “any misperception.” “The intention of the article was to inform the public about where the President has been hosting world leaders,” the web page now reads. “We regret any misperception and have removed the post.” Ethics groups have warned about the potential conflict of interest presented by the private Florida resort. Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) pointed to the blog piece Monday, asking in a Twitter message why the State Department would spend “taxpayer $$ promoting the president’s private country club.” The post described the history of the Palm Beach estate, which heiress Marjorie Merriweather Post donated to the U.S. government in her will in 1973 — 12 years before Trump purchased it. It was not clear whether the blog post had been vetted for legal or ethical concerns. The blog post was still up on the U.S. Embassy’s London website, but officials say the post is expected to be removed. | |

MY UNDERSTANDING (I COULD BE WRONG). TBP STARTED OUT AS AN INDEPENDENT SITE. THEN THE OWNERS STARTED PU AS AN AFFILIATED SITE (THEY WERE BOTH PORN REVIEW SITES). A SHORT WHILE BACK, THE OWNERS SOLD THE TWO SITES TO RABBIT, BECAUSE THEY WERE FOCUSING THEIR ATTENTION ON TRYING TO START A NEW PORN REVIEW SITE (THAT ULTIMATELY FAILED). SO, CURRENTLY, RABBIT OWNS/OPERATES ALL THREE SITES: RABBIT, PU, AND TBP. ALL THREE SITES ARE PORN REVIEW SITES. Edited on Apr 22, 2017, 10:15am | |

MBAYA POSTED A COMMENT ON THAT SITE YEARS AGO. IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN A HINT. BUT BECAUSE IT WAS YEARS AGO, IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN DISCOUNTED: ======================== mbaya (412) 08-26-08 07:53am weak When I was a member about a year ago I was very disappointed. The videos were small clips, not full length and there were none of any quality worth watching. I saved none, not even one video. Very grainy, poor lighting, shot from too far, etc. There were some dead links and the navigation was far too difficult. I suspected that there was more content than what I saw, but it was probably rotated out. I hope there are as many videos now as stated on TBP, but I also hope their quality has improved A LOT. ================================ YOU MIGHT NOT ALWAYS AGREE WITH HIS SCORES/OPINIONS/WHATEVER, HE USUALLY GIVES DETAILS THAT SUPPORT HIS VIEWS. | |

I GIVE MORE WEIGHT TO PU REVIEWS. BECAUSE THEY ARE BASED ON CONSUMERS REPORTING WHAT THEY FIND. I THINK THAT TBP/RABBIT ARE PROFESSIONAL REVIEW SITES. THEY ARE FAR MORE HONEST IN THEIR REVIEWS THAN MOST PORN REVIEW SITES. IF YOU'VE VISITED A LOT OF PORN REVIEW SITES, YOU WILL SOON REALIZE THEY ARE BASICALLY PUFF SITES THAT SAY HOW WONDERFUL EACH PAY SITE IS--TO GET YOU TO JOIN. TBP/RABBIT ARE MORE HONEST, AND TRY TO GIVE THE PROS AND CONS OF EACH SITE. BUT LIKE I SAID, I GIVE MORE WEIGHT TO PU REVIEWS, BECAUSE I CAN RELATE TO THEM BETTER, THEY MAKE MORE SENSE TO ME. HOWEVER, TBP/RABBIT REVIEWS CAN GIVE DETAILS ON A SITE, THAT ARE USEFUL, IN DECIDING WHETHER TO JOIN A SITE. AS FAR AS ABSOLUTE SCORES, I DON'T FIND THEM TO BE ABSOLUTELY RELIABLE. BUT THAT IS BECAUSE: I BELIEVE THERE IS A SUBJECTIVE ELEMENT IN HOW A PERSON WILL REACT TO A SITE. AND A PROFESSIONAL REVIEW CAN'T FACTOR THAT INTO THE SCORE. ALSO, THE SCORING SYSTEM AT TBP IS BASED ON STRICT CRITERIA, THAT I PERSONALLY DON'T AGREE WITH. IN MY OWN REVIEWS, I TRY TO POINT OUT THE PLUS AND MINUS OF A SITE, WITH SOME DETAILS OF THE SITE. BUT I ALSO THROW IN PERSONAL OBSERVATIONS, LIKES AND DISLIKES. WHICH IS NOT ENTIRELY OBJECTIVE, BUT AT LEAST PARTLY SUBJECTIVE. (I TEND TO RAMBLE A LOT.)  PS: WHAT SITE ARE YOU WRITING ABOUT? PPS: I THINK THE FACTS/DETAILS AT TBP/RABBIT ARE MORE USEFUL THAN THE SCORE. Edited on Apr 22, 2017, 08:45am | |

MY THINKING WAS: HOW CAN A SITE BE CONSIDERED FANTASTIC, IF THE SITE PROBLEMS ARE HORRIBLE VIDEO QUALITY, CROSS CHECKS AND LACK OF SUPPORT? WHAT IF A SITE HAS ONE OR TWO FANTASIC-LOOKING MODELS, AND SOME REALLY GREAT, HOT VIDEOS THAT ABSOLUTELY BLOW YOU AWAY? IN THE REAL WORLD, I HAVEN'T BEEN THAT LUCKY. THERE ARE SITES WITH GREAT LOOKING MODELS. AND SITES WITH SOME INTENSELY HOT SEX ON FIRST VIEWING. BUT I DON'T KNOW IF THERE ARE ANY FANTASTIC SITES OUT THERE. THERE ARE PLENTY OF NICE OR GOOD SITES. THAT ARE WORTH YOUR MONEY. BUT MAYBE A FANTASTIC SITE IS THE EQUIVALENT OF THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM. OR A SITE THAT ABSOLUTELY DESERVES A SCORE OF 100. IN REALITY, THE THRILL OF THE HUNT IS A LARGE PART OF THE COLLECTOR'S PASSION. BECAUSE ONCE YOU GET IT, THE ITEM'S VALUE SEEMS TO DROP OVER TIME. SAD BUT TRUE, I THINK. | |

TRUMP IS, BY FAR, THE MOST LYING, DECEITFUL PRESIDENT WE'VE EVER HAD. HIS VERSION OF "NEW FACTS", OR WHATEVER HE CALLS FACTS, ARE LIES THAT ARE ALMOST IMMEDIATELY EXPOSED. HE MAKES CLAIMS AND PROMISES THAT ARE AS EMPTY OF TRUTH AS THE WORST POLITICIANS. AND YET PEOPLE VOTED FOR HIM. AND BELIEVE IN HIM. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. HOW? BY ENRICHING HIS FAMILY AND HIS CRONIES BEYOND BELIEF END OF RANT.  | |

"I thought the site was fantastic despite the horrible video quality, cross checks and lack of support." ARE YOU SAYING THAT HORRIBLE VIDEO QUALITY, CROSS CHECKS AND LACK OF SUPPORT ARE PERSONAL BIASES THAT SHOULD BE IGNORED? OR THAT THEY ARE VALID FACTS THAT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED IN THE REVIEW? OR MAYBE YOU ARE SAYING THERE ARE FANTASTIC SITES THAT HAVE BLEMISHES.  | |

I AGREE THAT A SCORE CAN BE VERY SUBJECTIVE. EVEN WHEN PEOPLE BELIEVE THEY ARE USING A STRICT OBJECTIVE SCORING SYSTEM TO RATE A SITE, I STILL BELIEVE THAT THERE IS A STRONG, SUBJECTIVE ELEMENT IN THE FINAL SCORE. IF YOU READ ENOUGH REVIEWS OF A POPULAR MOVIE, YOU WILL COME TO UNDERSTAND THE SUBJECTIVE NATURE OF MOST REVIEWS/SCORES. THE SAME MOVIE CAN BE CALLED A CLASSIC, OR A PIECE OF JUNK. MANY MOVIES THAT ARE NOW CONSIDERED CLASSICS WERE CONSIDERED BOMBS (FAILURES) AT THE TIME THEY WERE ORIGINALLY RELEASED. BOTH COMMERCIAL FAILURES AND CRITICAL FAILURES. | |

I THINK YOU ARE OVER-THINKING THE PROCESS (AND THE SITE). THE SITE OWNERS (I'M TALKING ABOUT PU) WERE TRYING TO MAKE A FRIENDLY, EASY TO USE SITE WHERE MEMBERS COULD POST THEIR REVIEWS, COMMENTS, ETC. SO, IF A MEMBER DID NOT WANT TO SPEND THE TIME TO WRITE A REVIEW OF A SITE, HE COULD STILL POST HIS OPINION (SCORE/RATING/WHAT-EVER-YOU-CALL-IT) OF THE SITE WITH A RATING/SCORE. I'VE NEVER GIVEN A SITE A SCORE WITHOUT GIVING IT A REVIEW. BUT SOME PEOPLE HAVE. THEY PROBABLY THINK THEY ARE MAKING A WORTHWHILE CONTRIBUTION TO THE SITE INFORMATION. I HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH THAT. JUST MY 2 CENTS. PS: I'M WRITING IN CAPS, BECAUSE IT'S EASIER FOR ME TO SEE AND WRITE AND EDIT. NOT TRYING TO SHOUT OR BE RUDE. PPS: FROM A PU RATING'S PAGE: Rating Info 1. Ratings are weighted at 50% compared to a full review (toward the site's score). 2. Ratings expire after 12 months from it's creation date. New rating can be made after expiration. 3. Ratings can be edited or upgraded to full review anytime. Edited on Apr 16, 2017, 05:25pm | |

========================================== A BRIEF NOTE ON HOW DONALD TRUMP IS SAVING TAXPAYER MONEY, SINCE MOVING INTO THE WHITE HOUSE: It seems the First Lady and her 11-year-old are ditching their posh Fifth Avenue digs in New York City, for the less ostentatious White House this summer, according to Fox News. The White House did not respond to TheWrap’s request for comment. But the president’s wife is expected to settle in the nation’s capital after her son Barron finishes out the school year. Melania Trumps has been criticized for her decision to stay in New York City, forcing tax payers to pick up the tab for the extra protection of her New York apartment. According to New York Police Department Commissioner James O’Neill it would cost anywhere between $127,000 and $146,000 a day to protect Trump Tower. ========================================== | |

AS PART OF HIS PLEDGE TO DRAIN THE SWAMP OF CORRUPTION IN WASHINGTON, THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION ANNOUNCED ON FRIDAY, APRIL 14, 2017 THAT IT WILL HALT FORMER PRESIDENT OBAMA'S POLICY OF RELEASING THE NAMES OF MOST WHITE HOUSE GUESTS. THE WHITE HOUSE VISITOR LOGS ARE NOW SECRET, DUE TO "GRAVE NATIONAL SECURITY RISKS AND PRIVACY CONCERNS." THIS IS THE OPPOSITE OF THE WHITE HOUSE STANCE ON PRIVACY CONCERNS FOR U.S. CITIZENS, WHO ARE LEGALLY OR ILLEGALLY SPIED ON BY NASA, THE CIA, THE POLICE, AND ANYONE WHO WANTS TO SPY ON U.S. CITIZENS BECAUSE OF SECURITY CONCERNS. ====== ====== http://www.thewrap.com/trump-announces-h...will-be-kept-secret/ The Wrap ‘Something to Hide’? Trump Will Keep White House Visitor Logs Secret President Trump is is halting former Obama’s policy of releasing the names of most White House guests Susan Seager | April 14, 2017 @ 5:01 PM President Donald Trump has pledged to “drain the swamp” of corruption in Washington — but the public will just have to trust him on that, because he’s drawing a cloak of secrecy over his White House visitor logs. The Trump Administration announced Friday it is halting former President Barack Obama’s policy of releasing the names of most visitors to the White House complex. The administration cited “grave national security risks and privacy concerns.” Trump has been keeping his visitor logs secret since he took office in January. Just this week, the Trump administration was slapped with a lawsuit over its secrecy policy. On Monday, the National Security Archive, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, as well as the Knight First Amendment Institute at Columbia University, filed a lawsuit accusing the White House of violating the Freedom of Information Act by keeping the logs secret. The lawsuit not only seeks the names of visitors to the White House, but also the names of visitors to Trump’s “Southern White House” in Mar-a-Lago. In contrast, the Obama White House released the names of nearly 6 million visitors, including scores of lobbyists, over eight years. But Obama also was hit with an open records lawsuit before he started releasing visitor names. “The only excuse for this policy is that the Trump administration has something to hide,” said David Donnelly, president and chief executive of Every Voice. “This kind of secrecy will allow big donors, lobbyists and special interests to have unknown levels of influence in the White House.” “It’s the exact opposite of ‘draining the swamp,’ ” Donnelly added, referring to Trump’s pledge to usher in a more ethical and less corrupt era in Washington. Norman Eisen, a former Obama ethics counsel and architect of his visitor log policy, called Trump’s decision “a disaster,” arguing it will ultimately be damaging to the new administration. “It will encourage meetings to happen that shouldn’t happen because they can remain hidden from public view,” Eisen said. | |

GOOD PLOT, GOOD ACTING, GOOD CAMERA-WORK. THEY WEREN'T THE EXPLICIT PORNO MOVIES OF TODAY, MORE OF A SOFTCORE/HARDCORE VERSION. | |

SOMETIMES, WHEN I SUBMIT A POST/COMMENT/WHATEVER TO THIS SITE, I GET AN ERROR MESSAGE FROM THE SITE. IN MOST CASES, I JUST IGNORE THE ERROR MESSAGE, BECAUSE THE POST/COMMENT WAS ACCEPTED AND SHOWN ON THE SITE. A FEW TIMES, I NEED TO REPOST THE POST/COMMENT, BECAUSE THE COMMENT WAS NOT ACCEPTED AT THE SITE. SOMETIMES, IF YOU HIT THE SEND BUTTON MORE THAN ONCE, YOUR POST/COMMENT IS REPEATED AT THE SITE IN DUPLICATE/TRIPLICATE/WHATEVER. SO IT'S BETTER TO OPEN A NEW TAB/WINDOW TO SEE OF YOUR POST WAS ACCEPTED AT THE SITE. IN THE PAST, MEMBERS SOMETIMES HAD MULTIPLE POSTS PUBLISHED, OF THE SAME COMMENT. WHICH HASN'T HAPPENED LATELY, THAT I'VE NOTICED. COMPUTERS ARE NOT GETTING BETTER, IN SPITE OF WHAT THE EXPERT CLAIM. Edited on Mar 30, 2017, 05:26pm | |

BEAUTY AND THE BEAST EARNED $64 MILLION ON FRIDAY. THE THREE-DAY ESTIMATE IS NOW AT $170 MILLION. WILL DISNEY MAKE A PROFIT ON THE MOVIE? STAY TUNED FOR FURTHER DETAILS. AND GO TO THE THEATERS TO SUPPORT THIS FANTASY ABOUT THE ROMANCE BETWEEN A SHY VIRGIN AND THE MONSTER WHO HOLDS HER CAPTIVE. (IN THE NEXT RE-MAKE, BEAUTY COULD BE A POLE DANCER WORKING HER WAY THROUGH COLLEGE, WITH A GIANT DILDO FOR HER COMPANION INSTEAD OF A BEAST. OR MAYBE THE DILDO WILL BE THE BEAST.) | |

I GET SPAM/EMAIL OFFERS ALL THE TIME FROM SITES I AM CURRENTLY SUBSCRIBED TO, AS WELL AS FROM SITES I JOINED IN THE PAST. MOST SITES DO NOT PUT ANY EFFORT INTO SEPARATING THEIR MAILING LISTS FOR PAST AND CURRENT SUBSCRIBERS. TOO MUCH WORK, I GUESS, TO CHECK IF YOU ARE A CURRENT SUBSCRIBER, OR NOT. MY ADVICE WOULD BE TO CHECK THOSE EMAILS AS SPAM, AND THEN DELETE THEM. I'VE READ THAT IT'S A BAD IDEA TO CLICK THE UNSUBSCRIBE BUTTON. THERE ARE DIFFERENT REASONS WHY THE UNSUBSCRIBE BUTTON SHOULD NOT BE USED: 1. IT CONFIRMS THAT YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS IS CURRENT AND VALID. 2. IT CAN GIVE THE RECIPIENT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR COMPUTER SYSTEM (A LOT OF INFORMATION THAT YOU DON'T REALIZE YOU ARE GIVING). 3. IT GIVES YOUR GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION (UNLESS YOU ARE USING SOME CLOAKING PROGRAM). Edited on Mar 13, 2017, 03:12am | |

IMDb adds 'F-rating' to identify female-focused films Published March 07, 2017 FoxNews.com The Internet Movie Database (IMDb) now features an "F-rating" to identify films that are feminist-friendly. Film that feature a female director, a female writer, sees "significant women on screen in their own right" or passes the Bechdel test will receive the special rating. The Bechdel Test was first established in 1985 by comics writer Alison Bechdel. In order to pass the test, a film must feature two female characters talking to each other about something other than a man. "The F-Rating is a great way to highlight women on screen and behind the camera," IMDb founder and CEO Col Needham told The Telegraph. Films that don't feature a female director or writer can still earn an "F" as long as they pass the Bechdel Test. So far, 21,800 films on IMDb have an "F" including "Kung Fu Panda 2," "The Girl on the Train," "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" and "The Parent Trap." Some films can earn a "Triple F" rating if they meet all three conditions. Those films include "Frozen," "American Honey" and "Bridget Jones’s Baby." "Our real goal is to reach the stage when the F-Rating is redundant because 50% of the stories we see on screen are told by and about film’s unfairly under-represented half of the population – women," Bath Film Festival director Holly Tarquini, who first introduced the ratings system in 2014, said. | |

THE MOVIE HASN'T BEEN RELEASED YET, SO OBVIOUSLY I HAVEN'T SEEN IT. MY TAKE IS THAT THE DIRECTOR WAS PROUD OF HIS CREATION OF A HOMOSEXUAL CHARACTER, AND WANTED EVERYONE TO KNOW WHAT HE HAD CREATED. OTHERWISE, MOST PEOPLE WATCHING THE MOVIE WOULD NEVER HAD CAUGHT ON THE INSIDE JOKE. SO, BY BRAGGING, HE GOT THE MOVIE A RESTRICTED RATING IN RUSSIA. I DON'T FOLLOW POLITICS THAT CLOSELY. DID NOT REALIZE HOMOSEXUALITY WAS REPRESSED IN RUSSIA. IT PROBABLY WON'T HURT BOX OFFICE SALES OF THE MOVIE, BECAUSE RUSSIA IS A SMALL MARKET. | |

‘Beauty and the Beast’ Gets Age Restriction in Russia Over Gay Character 7 March 2017 8:47 AM, PST | The Wrap | Disney’s live-action remake “Beauty and the Beast” will receive an age restriction in Russia after director Bill Condon revealed an “exclusively gay moment” in the film. According to Russian film service Kinopoisk, people under the age of 16 will not be able to go see the movie in theaters without being accompanied by an adult. This comes three days after Vitaly Milonov, an MP of the United Russia party, asked the country’s culture minister to screen the film prior to its March 16 Russian release and to “take measures to totally ban” it if the film contains “elements of propaganda of homosexuality. | |

TheBestPorn.com and PornUsers.com are 2 separate sites. Both sites are owned by the same company. If your website is listed at TheBestPorn.com and also at PornUsers.com, it should help you sell memberships in your site. Since the site (vintagepornbay.com) appears to be new, you need members to help pay for running the site. I assume you are running the site to make money, and not as a hobby. So it just makes sense, I believe, to list vintagepornbay.com at TheBestPorn and PornUsers, to increase your membership. As a form of advertising. vintagepornbay (your username at PU - AKA PornUsers) lists your location as Arizona/USA. I don't mean to be disrespectful, but I don't know how well you understand English. I thought my post/comment was easy to understand, but you write that you are not sure whether I meant that you should have preview pages at PU or at your own site. PU does not have preview pages of pornsites. Instead, PU has links to the different pornsites. Also, the preview pages at your own website are very limited. They give little information on what the site contents include. They also do not explain clearly what the prices and membership levels include. What the benefits are for each level, and the price for each membership level. I do not know how well you understand English. To me, it seems you should employ someone who has a good understanding of English, if you want to increase your audience for English-speaking members. You also need to hire someone to create preview pages for your website, to show clearly, what the site contents include, and the prices and benefits for each member level. If you can't afford to hire someone to create the preview pages, and to pay someone, even if part-time, to translate/explain English messages to you, it will hurt your business. That's if you want to succeed in having your site make money. I'm not trying to be critical. Instead, I believe I am trying to be helpful: offering some basic advice on what you need to do. But if you do not have the money to hire someone to create useful preview pages, or to hire a part-time employee to translate emails/messages for you, then just say so. There's no shame in stating you are cash-poor, to explain what the situation is. Otherwise, it's difficult to understand what advice makes sense to offer to you. Edited on Mar 06, 2017, 02:20pm | |

I SUGGEST THE SITE OWNERS CREATE SOME PREVIEW PAGES THAT GIVES BROWSERS A LOOK AT YOUR CONTENT, WHAT IT IS. ALSO, IN YOUR PREVIEW PAGES, YOU SHOULD SPELL OUT WHAT THE PRICES AND BENEFITS ARE FOR EACH LEVEL OF MEMBERSHIP. MAYBE STAFF MEMBERS AT THE SITE KNOW WHAT THE CONTENT IS, BUT EVERYBODY ELSE ONLY HAS A FAINT IDEA. MAKE IT EASY TO SHOW AND TELL THE ADVANTAGES OF THE SITE. THE SITE PREVIEW PAGES ARE ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT TOOLS FOR ADVERTISING THE SITE. FOR HOOKING POSSIBLE MEMBERS. JUST A SUGGESTION. | |

INTERESTING AND VALID POINTS: DON'T LET REALITY INTERFERE WITH FANTASY. PORN (AND MOST FICTION-WHETHER WRITTEN OR FILMED) IS BASICALLY FANTASY. IT'S BEST WATCHED WITH YOUR BRAIN TURNED OFF. ALTHOUGH SOME PEOPLE/CRITICS WOULD ARGUE THAT THE BRAIN IS AN IMPORTANT PART OF APPRECIATING ART. WITH MOST PORN, WE ARE NOT INTERESTED IN THE ARTISTIC MERIT: JUST THE EROTIC EFFECT. IN A SIMILAR FASHION, WATCHING MOST ROMANTIC FILMS OR ACTION FILMS OR FANTASY FILMS, IF YOU THINK IT DOESN'T MATCH REALITY, IT USUALLY LESSENS YOUR ENJOYMENT OF THE FILM. I'M NOT BEING CLEAR: THE PORN STAR IS AN IMAGE IN OUR BRAIN. DON'T LET HER PERSONAL LIFE OR PERSONAL REALITY INTRUDE ON OUR FANTASY. Edited on Feb 28, 2017, 12:59pm | |

ALEX-LYNN.COM A SITE BY ALEX LYNN, A CONTRIBUTING PHOTOGRAPHER TO METART. I PROBABLY WOULDN'T JOIN THE SITE YET. THE PREVIEW PAGES ARE VERY LIMITED. DO NOT EVEN GIVE A LISTING OF ALL THE MODELS AND THEIR SETS. SO HARD TO KNOW HOW MUCH CONTENT THE SITE HOLDS. SITE OWNER NEEDS TO HIRE A PROFESSIONAL WEB DEVELOPER TO MAKE A BETTER, MORE-STANDARDIZED PRE-VIEW PAGE. | |

GO TO YOUR LOCAL WALMART (AND PLENTY OF OTHER STORES THAT SELL PRE-PAID CARDS) TO SEE WHAT THE FEES ARE. I DON'T THINK THE FEES ARE VERY HIGH. I'VE NEVER USED A PRE-PAID CARD (EXCEPT FREE-ONES THAT I GOT FROM SOME PROMOTION). BUT PRE-PAID CARDS ARE VERY POPULAR. LIKE I WROTE, PRE-PAID CARDS ARE A MULTI-BILLION DOLLAR INDUSTRY. YOU CAN RELOAD YOUR CARD IN SMALL AMOUNTS, FOR A SMALL FEE. MAYBE $3 AT WALMART. OBVIOUSLY, IT'S NOT AS CONVENIENT AS A REGULAR CREDIT CARD, BUT THIS IS INSURANCE AGAINST FRAUD AND FALSE CHARGES (AS LONG AS YOU CONTROL THE CREDIT ON THE CARD TO KEEP IT SMALL). SO IF YOU DON'T MIND PAYING A SMALL FEE, IT MIGHT BE WORTH THE EXPERIENCE, TO SEE IF THE IDEA IS PRACTICAL FOR YOU. THE FEE TO RELOAD THE CARD SHOULD BE SMALL, IN DOLLAR TERMS. NOTE: MAKE SURE TO CHECK HOW TO USE THE CARD, WHERE IT CAN BE USED, HOW IT CAN BE USED. THAT IT CAN BE USED TO PAY FOR A PORN SITE SUBSCRIPTION, SINCE THAT'S THE MAIN REASON YOU WANT THE CARD. I DON'T MEAN TELLING THE CARD COMPANY YOU WANT TO PAY FOR A PORN SUBSCRIPTION, JUST THAT YOU WANT TO PAY FOR AN INTERNET ONLINE SUBSCRIPTION. Edited on Feb 20, 2017, 08:03am | |

I DON'T THINK YOU'RE MISSING SOMETHING. BECAUSE THERE ARE FEES ON A PRE-PAID CARD BEYOND THE CHARGE FOR THE AMOUNT OF THE CREDIT, I'VE NEVER USED A PRE-PAID CARD. BUT EVIDENTLY, SOME PEOPLE FEEL IT'S WORTH THE FEES, FOR THE SECURITY OF DEALING WITH A SITE THEY DON'T FULLY TRUST, AS INSURANCE THEY WON'T BE CHARGED EXTRA. SOME PEOPLE HAVE REPORTED THEIR REGULAR CREDIT CARDS WERE CHARGED $50, $100 OR MORE IN FRAUDULENT CHARGERS. AND SOME PEOPLE MIGHT BE EMBARRASSED EXPLAINING THE CHARGES ARE FOR A PORN SITE, TO THEIR CREDIT CARD COMPANY. SO THINK OF A PRE-PAID CREDIT CARD AS A FORM OF INSURANCE, INSTEAD OF USING A REGULAR CREDIT CARD. THERE ARE EXTRA FEES, AND IT'S LESS CONVENIENT, BUT A PRE-PAID CARD LIMITS YOUR LIABILITY TO WHAT CREDIT IS ON THE CARD. ALSO, SOME PEOPLE MIGHT NOT QUALIFY FOR A REGULAR CREDIT CARD. SO THERE ARE DIFFERENT REASONS THAT MIGHT APPLY FOR CHOOSING A PRE-PAID CREDIT CARD. I READ AN ESTIMATE THAT THE PRE-PAID CREDIT CARD INDUSTRY WAS $168 BILLION IN 2015. SO A LOT OF PEOPLE USE THEM. AND IT'S NOT JUST FOR PORN. Edited on Feb 18, 2017, 07:52am | |

I HAVEN'T USED A PRE-PAID CARD MYSELF. I THINK THERE ARE CHARGES TO USING A PRE-PAID CARD, BEYOND THE AMOUNT YOU PAY FOR THE ACTUAL CREDIT ON THE CARD. BUT MY GUESS IS THAT YOU ONLY PUT ENOUGH CREDIT ON THE CARD TO COVER THE COST OF THE MEMBERSHIP. THAT IS HOW YOU AVOID OVERCHARGES AND RECURRING CHARGES. IF YOU HAVE ENOUGH CREDIT ON THE CARD TO COVER THE RECURRING CHARGE OF A MEMBERSHIP, I WOULD ASSUME THE CARD WOULD BE CHARGED THE RECURRING CHARGE. | |

I SUGGEST THAT PU STAFF DO AN UPDATE ON MEMBER SITE REQUESTS AFTER A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF TIME HAS PASSED. IF THE PU STAFF THINKS IT'S NOT TOO MUCH WORK. PERHAPS A MONTH--IF THE SITE HAS NOT BEEN LISTED AT PU? JUST TO LET US KNOW THAT THE REQUEST IS STILL ACTIVE, THE SITE IS STILL WAITING TO BE LISTED,OR THAT THE SITE WILL NOT BE LISTED IN THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE. JUST A BRIEF NOTE TO TELL US WHAT'S HAPPENING. OTHERWISE, I GUESS WE JUST HAVE TO ACCEPT THE IDEA THAT MANY SITE REQUESTS SEEM TO DISAPPEAR,WITH NO EXPLANATION WHY. SO KEEP A CHECKLIST OF MEMBER SITE REQUESTS, WITH THE DATE OF THE REQUEST. AND CHECK THEM OFF WITH ACTION NOTED (AND DATED): LISTED AT PU REQUEST STILL ACTIVE REQUEST AWAITING RESPONSE FROM SITE OWNERS REQUEST DENIED OR IN LIMBO OR WHATEVER OTHER STATUS LISTING YOU THINK IS EASY AND FAIR. I'M NOT TRYING TO CREATE EXTRA WORK FOR THE PU STAFF. OR MAYBE I AM . BUT SOME FEEDBACK ON WHY SITES ARE NOT LISTED WOULD BE HELPFUL.EVEN IF IT'S JUST TO SAY: STILL WORKING ON THE REQUEST. OR A STATEMENT THAT THE REQUEST IS IN LIMBO. | |

PORN IS FANTASY. AT LEAST A LARGE PART OF IT. SO IT'S BETTER TO TURN OFF YOUR BRAIN WHILE WATCHING IT. IT IMPROVES THE EXPERIENCE. THE SAME IS TRUE OF MOST ACTION MOVIES. HOW LONG WOULD JAMES BOND LAST IN REAL LIFE VERSUS THE MOVIES? HINT: HE WOULD HAVE DIED IN HIS FIRST MOVIE. LET ALONE SURVIVING 20+ MIRACULOUS ADVENTURES. | |

WEIRD, BUT APPARENTLY TRUE: http://www.thewrap.com/sofia-vergara-ask...n-embryo-bid-on-ice/ Sofia Vergara Asks Court to Put Her Ex’s Frozen-Embryo Bid on Ice The Wrap “Modern Family” star says Nick Loeb should be held to their agreement with reproductive center Tim Kenneally | February 15, 2017 @ 2:36 PM Sofia Vergara had a Valentine’s Day message for her ex this year — leggo my eggs, yo. “Modern Family” star Vergara filed papers Tuesday in an effort to block her former boyfriend Nick Loeb’s effort to gain control of the frozen embryos that were created during the couple’s relationship. A complaint filed in Los Angeles Superior Court is asking that Loeb be compelled to abide by the agreement that the former couple entered into with ART Reproductive Center, which according to the complaint “states that any parties’ disposition of the Pre-Embryos, including their implantation into a surrogate, requires the explicit written consent of the other party.” Loeb, who was involved with Vergara from 2010 until 2014, filed an action against the actress in August 2014 attempting to obtain full custody of the embryos and bring them to term, Vergara’s filing Tuesday noted. Loeb filed to voluntarily dismiss his suit without prejudice — meaning he could re-file again — in December 2016. Since then, Vergara’s filing Tuesday said, Loeb set up a trust for the embryos in Louisiana, “so he will be able to assign legal rights to the Pre-Embroys and thereby cause to bring them to term” without Vergara’s consent. In addition to asking that Loeb be held to his agreement with Vergara, the suit — which alleges breach of contract, promissory fraud and other counts — is seeking unspecified damages. Pamela Chelin contributed to this report. | |

THE HEYDAY OF PLAYBOY AND PENTHOUSE IS LONG PAST. THEY HAD THEIR PEAK IN THE 1960S, 1970S, MAYBE THE 1980S. BUT THEN LOST THEIR WAY: READERSHIP DROPPED OFF, THEY LOST MONEY. PLAYBOY AND PENTHOUSE ARE BARELY MEMORIES OF WHAT THEY ONCE WERE. LITTLE OR NO IMPORTANCE TODAY. PAYSITES AND TUBESITES HAVE TAKEN THEIR PLACE. | |

THE BAD NEWS IS THAT I DIDN'T VISIT IMDB TO READ THE MESSAGE BOARDS. I VISITED IMDB TO READ ABOUT THE MOVIES, AND SEE THE LIST OF CAST AND CREW. AND AS AN AFTER-THOUGHT, TO GLANCE AT THE MESSAGE BOARDS, AND SEE IF ANY TITLE THREADS CAUGHT MY INTEREST. I DON'T BELONG TO ANY OTHER MOVIE FORUMS. AND I BELIEVE I'M A MOVIE PERSON, WHO LIKES TO WATCH MOVIES. EXCEPT I DON'T GO TO MOVIE THEATERS AS MUCH AS I USED TO, BECAUSE IT'S GOTTEN SO EXPENSIVE. I DO RENT DVD-S FROM REDBOX, BUT MOST OF THE MOVIES I WATCH ARE ON CABLE. SOME ARE ON AMAZON PRIME. SO IMDB MESSAGE BOARDS WERE A CASUAL THING FOR ME, BUT I ENJOYED THEM BECAUSE I WAS ALREADY AT THE SITE TO LOOK AT THE MOVIE INFORMATION (CAST, CREW, BASIC PLOT), AND SOME OF THE MESSAGE BOARD COMMENTS WERE INFORMATIVE, HUMOROUS, THOUGHT-PROVOKING, WHATEVER. BUT TO JOIN OTHER FORUMS THAT DISCUSS MOVIES SEEMS LIKE A LOT OF EFFORT. SO I'M ANNOYED THAT IMDB IS CLOSING THE MESSAGE BOARDS. THEIR STATEMENT IS THAT THE MESSAGE BOARDS DO NOT CONTRIBUTE TO THE USER EXPERIENCE. I DISAGREE. | |

THE THREAD IS CONCENTRATED ON THE ABILITY TO DOWNLOAD FOR A SITE SUBSCRIPTION. THAT SEEMS TO HAVE REPLACED THE DRM MODEL. (I HAVEN'T COME ACROSS ANY SITES THAT STILL USE THE DRM MODEL, BUT THEY MIGHT STILL EXIST.) ANYWAY, MOST SITES I SIGN UP FOR I'VE ALREADY JOINED AT LEAST ONCE BEFORE. I DON'T JOIN MINDGEEK SITES ON A REGULAR BASIS, SO I'VE NOT FOUND STREAMING ONLY AS THE BASIC SUB FOR MOST OF MY JOINS. ALTHOUGH I RECENTLY JOINED DIESEL NETWORK, AND THAT NOW OFFERS A STREAMING ONLY, AND A STREAMING PLUS DOWNLOAD SUBSCRIPTION MODEL. BUT AS I WROTE, THE TERMS ARE CLEARLY SPELLED OUT ON THE JOIN PAGE. SO IT'S NOT A BAIT AND SWITCH TACTIC ON DIESEL'S PART. EXCEPT THEY DON'T CLEARLY SPELL OUT ON THE JOIN PAGE: WHAT THE UPGRADE PRICE IS FOR DIAMOND STATUS, AND WHEN YOU GET DIAMOND STATUS (ACCESS TO ALL 3 SITES IN THE NETWORK) FROM A REGULAR MEMBERSHIP. OBVIOUSLY, A MEMBER CAN FEEL CHEATED OR ANNOYED IF HE JOINS SOME SITE, AND THEN IS TOLD THAT DOWNLOADING COSTS EXTRA, OR THAT SOME SITES REQUIRE AN EXTRA PAYMENT, OR THAT VIEWING OR DOWNLOADING IN HIGH OR ULTRA-HIGH DEFINITION COSTS EXTRA, OR WHATEVER ELSE THEY CAN CHARGE EXTRA FOR. SO AS SOME PU MEMBERS HAVE STATED, IT WOULD BE NICE IF TBP INCLUDED A SECTION ON MEMBERSHIP LEVELS: WHAT THE PRICE IS, WHAT YOU GET FOR EACH LEVEL OF MEMBERSHIP. BUT THIS WILL REQUIRE SOME TIME FOR TBP TO SWITCH TO: PROGRAMMING THE CHANGE, AND THEN DOING THE REVIEWS TO INCLUDE THE FACTS. BUT IN THE MEANTIME, PU MEMBERS CAN PUT THIS INFORMATION IN THEIR REVIEW, SINCE IT SEEMS TO HIT A HOT BUTTON FOR MEMBERS. AND MAYBE PU CAN INCLUDE THIS SUGGESTION/REQUIREMENT IN THEIR GUIDE TO WHAT A PU REVIEW SHOULD BE. ACTUALLY, PU SHOULD MAKE EASILY VISIBLE THE GUIDE TO WHAT A REVIEW SHOULD INCLUDE, ESPECIALLY FOR NEWBIES, BUT ALSO FOR OLDER MEMBERS, TO JOG OUR MEMORIES OF WHAT A GOOD REVIEW LOOKS LIKE. EXCEPT, TO BE TRUTHFUL, I HOPE MY REVIEWS HAVE SOME VALUE OR USEFULNESS, BUT I'M NOT GOING TO FOLLOW A CHECKLIST FOR EVERY POINT IN A REVIEW. BECAUSE I ALREADY SPEND ENOUGH TIME WRITING A REVIEW, AND I KNOW I'M LEAVING OUT IMPORTANT INFORMATION, BUT I'M NOT A PROFESSIONAL REVIEWER, AND IT WOULD TAKE TOO LONG TO WRITE A TRULY DETAILED, COMPETENT REVIEW OF A SITE. I REALLY ADMIRE SOME OF THE OLDER REVIEWS, FROM PEOPLE LIKE TOADSITH AND BADMRFROSTY, WHO NOT ONLY HAD A TECHNICAL UNDERSTANDING, BUT THE ABILITY TO WRITE CLEAR AND CRISP SITE REVIEWS. | |
