.............. Profile ................ Jeff from Str8Cam...................

................yes - the man himself very graciously consented to doing an interview for yours truly and I have to say he certainly is as nice and as real as everyone who I know have met him has told me that he is.

So with no further ado - please welcome all round hottie and nice guy - Jeff from Str8Cam :)

PS Visit his site and buy a membership - his appeal and his sexiness are just too good to pass by.

(2CW) Hi Jeff and thanks so much for joining us here at 2 Cents. To start, when and how did Str8Cam get started?

I started http://www.STR8cam.com back in 2000. I first appeared on a website called camarades where I downloaded some free software and people could watch my live cam. Many people tuned in and it was a ton of fun to show off for them. A few of the guys watching me suggested that I open up my own webcam site, so I did. Thankfully i'm still camming today and it's still fun for me and people continue to tune in from all over the world to watch me.





(2CW) All of us see the end result of your work on the blog. Does it take up a lot of your time?

STR8cam does take up a lot of my time but I don't mind because I love working on it. I am constantly improving my site and always looking to make my camera feed bigger. I'm always looking to make my site better and more known to others by setting up link swaps, updating my yahoo group, creating free thumbnail gallery posts, etc. I also get many emails and I answer them all back with in a few days and sometimes sooner if I can.




(2CW) Now you are heterosexual. I am going to guess that the majority of your audience is gay men. Did you have to work through a comfort zone when you first started this?

I did have to work through a small comfort zone when I first started. It was not about the men being gay but more about me showing my dick and ass and everything to whoever was watching me. When I first started back in 2000, I did not get naked on cam. I only flexed and showed off and then as I got more comfortable I really began to let it all hang out like I do today.

(2CW) Do you have female viewers? Are they growing in numbers or is the site still predominantly gay men?

I have a few female members. Not many though as most of my members are gay men. My female members are not really growing in numbers. Most of my members ara still predominantly gay men.




(2CW) I read recently that you are now married? Congratulations!

Yes, Thank you! I am now a married man and I just did a solo jack off set entitled married man meat which is now available on my site. I try to name my videos and pictures after what is going on in my life. The last show/video I did before my wedding was called "My Bachelor Party" where I fucked a blow up doll on camera for my viewers.

Each week I look forward to cumming with with new show ideas to do live on cam. My members are also a huge part of STR8cam as they provide me with many cam ideas. My wife also sometimes comes up with various ideas. Like for Halloween we went to a pumpkin patch and picked out the pumpkin I was going to fuck for my live cam show audience... they loved it and I had even more fun!




(2CW) Now as the product that you are marketing, I can imagine that you have to take care of yourself. Can you tell us a bit about your fitness regime? Diet?

For sure. Basically since the product i'm marketing is me, I have to stay in good shape. Plus I enjoy working out and staying healthy. For my fitness regime, I try to workout 5 days a week and take my weekends off from training. Since my live http://www.STR8cam.com web shows are usually on Monday and Wednesday nights, I try to never miss those gym training days. Usually on Monday I will either workout my CHEST by itself or my BACK by itself. I'm not really big into working multiple muscle groups like chest and back on the same day or back and biceps on the same day/workout.. I like to focus on just one muscle group each training session except Biceps and Triceps which I usually workout on Wednesdays at the gym.




(2CW) Your site is probably one of the longest running amateur sites out there - how have you kept your interest in it? How do you keep your approach fresh and what is next for the site?

My site has been around for a while and i'm very proud of that. I see other cam sites coming and going all the time. I keep my interest in my site by first getting to know my members. I want to know what the guys watching me like to see and then I focus on doing those things. I have many members into various underwear fetish's so i'm constantly getting new thongs, underwear, jockstraps, bottoms, etc to wear on cam for them. I also have many foot/feet members with sole fetishes so i'm always showing my feet off. Most guys that join my site are really into muscle so i'm always flexing and answering their gym training questions and keeping my site fun and interactive. What's next for my site will be a High Definition Live Webcam with High Definition saved shows for downloading. I am also adding a few other straight guys to my STR8cam website because I want to have something going on at STR8cam everyday and not just the days that I am live on cam..




(2CW) I don't know if you heard, but I recently interviewed Muzo on my blog and one of the things we discussed was his rampant exhibitionism :) Any chance of him being on the site in the near future?

It's funny you should mention Muzo. He is the one that told me about you and your blog site. Yes, I know about Muzo being a rampant exhibitionist and he will soon be appearing at http://www.STR8cam.com for some online webcam shows. Muzo loves showing off on camera and right now he has an "Audition Pics" section on my site and his live cam schedule will be cumming soon.



(2CW) Now, you could be forgiven for getting a big head about your site, but I have heard several people who have met you say you are a complete gentleman and a really nice guy. Do you think this is part of the appeal of you? That you aren't a porn stereotype with the bad dialogue and over the top attitude?

Thanks for the compliments. As you mentioned, I don't have a big head and I do consider myself a nice guy. I never understood those cocky people who think they are the best thing going. Those guys come and go all the time. I am myself and I have a real interest in people and making sure they are happy. Yes, I would say that because i'm a nice caring person, my site has a larger appeal than if I was a porn stereotype. My site is fun to be around, it's addicting and I try to make it a nice place for you to spend your nights.

(2CW) Now I read you were in the military. How long were you in the service and was it a positive experience for you?

Yes, I was in the Army for 5 years. It was a very positive experience for me. It created a huge "butterfly effect" for me. I'm from Florida, served in California, then stayed in California after I left the Army. While I was in the Army, I was saving my money to buy my first place. After looking at about 50 houses, I finally purchased the perfect starter house for me. After moving in, I came outside one day to get my mail and that's how I met my beautiful wife. She was washing her car at the neighbors house. It was definately a positive experience :>)

(2CW) As a straight man who served in the military, what is your view on Dont Ask Dont Tell?

I think the Don't Ask Don't Tell policy is fine. It's no ones business if your gay, straight, or bi unless you want to tell them for yourself. It should be your business and not of any concern to the Military.




(2CW) Okay - now for the 2 Cents Quickies.....

Article reprinted from Wikipedia....


The 11 July 2006 Mumbai train bombings were a series of seven bomb blasts that took place over a period of 11 minutes on the Suburban Railway in Mumbai (formerly Bombay), capital city of the Indian state of Maharashtra and the nation's financial capital. The bombs were set off in pressure cookers on trains plying on the western line of the Suburban Railway network. 209 people lost their lives and over 700 were injured. According to Mumbai Police, the bombings were carried out by Lashkar-e-Toiba and Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI).^[1]

Details

Pressure cookers with a 2.5 kg mixture of RDX and ammonium nitrate in each,^[2] were placed on trains plying on the western line of the suburban ("local") train network, which forms the backbone of the city's transport network. Pressure cookers have been used in this bombing and other recent explosions^[3][4][5] to increase the afterburn in a thermobaric reaction,more powerful than conventional high explosives.^[6] The first blast reportedly took place at 18:24 IST (12:54 UTC), and the explosions continued for approximately eleven minutes, until 18:35,^[7] during the after-work rush hour. All the bombs had been placed in the first-class "general" compartments (some compartments are reserved for women, called "ladies" compartments) of several trains running from Churchgate, the city-centre end of the western railway line, to the western suburbs of the city. They exploded at or in the near vicinity of the suburban railway stations of Matunga Road, Mahim, Bandra, Khar Road, Jogeshwari, Bhayandar and Borivali.^[8][9] Home Minister Shivraj Patil told reporters that authorities had "some" information an attack was coming, "but place and time was not known".^[10]

The bomb attacks in Mumbai came hours after a series of grenade attacks in Srinagar, the largest city in the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir. Home Secretary V K Duggal said there was no link between the Srinagar and Mumbai bomb blasts.^[11]

1 One bomb exploded at this location, but another one was found by police and defused.[7]

Arrests

On 21 July 2006 police arrested three people suspected to be involved in the bombings.^[38] Police have detained more than 300 suspects since 18 July but these are the first arrests in the case.^[39] Two of the men were detained on Thursday in the northern state of Bihar and the third later in Mumbai.^[40][41] All three are said to belong to the banned SIMI organisation. On the same day, Abdul Karim Tunda was arrested in Kenya on suspicions of involvement in the train bombings.^[42] He is one of India's most wanted men and also a suspected organizer for the banned Islamic militant group Lashkar-e-Toiba.^[43]

Forced confessions

In late 2006, all the seven key accused in the Mumbai train blasts in July retracted their alleged confession to the police, saying they were illegally forced to sign blank papers, an Indian TV channel reported.^[44]

Muslim reaction to the arrests

Following the blasts, almost immediately, police arrested hundreds of Muslims for the investigation purposes. Muslims alleged they were the victims of police witch-hunts. Although the police denied singling out any group, the critics retorted that police had been mostly raiding the Muslim dominated-pockets in India.

The imam of India’s largest mosque — the Jama Masjid in New Delhi — Syed Ahmed Bukhari said, “Of course this is a deliberate targeting of Muslims”. Another Muslim leader Anees Durrani echoed Imam Bukhari’s views. He said, “very biased against Muslims”. He further added, “You can see that very plainly by the way the investigations are proceeding. Leaders of Indian Muslims have condemned the Mumbai blasts and others before July 11. No one knows who carried out the blasts but the needle of suspicion is always pointed towards us”.^[45]

Investigation updates

M K Narayanan, the Indian National Security Advisor, has said that India doesn't have "clinching" evidence of the involvement of ISI in the Mumbai train blasts of July 11.

"I would hesitate to say we have clinching evidence but we have pretty good evidence," he was quoted as saying on CNN-IBN.

Following Narayanan's remarks, the Union Home Secretary V.K. Duggal on Monday characterised the evidence as "very good [...] it is fairly solid evidence,".

On 25 September, 2008, Hindustan Times reported that "the Crime branch also learnt that the men [behind 2008 Delhi bombings] are those very operatives who had introduced themselves as Pakistanis to perpetrators of 11 July 2006 Mumbai train bombings ^[46]. Since the suspects linked with 2008 Delhi bombings are all Indian, this leaves earlier claims of ISI involvement as premature and incorrect.

Involvement of Indian Mujahideen

On February 27 2009, Sadiq Sheikh, an arrested leader of the Indian Mujahideen confessed to his alleged role in the bombings in a news channel broadcast ^[47]. He claimed to have engineered the pressure cooker bombs with his associates in a flat in central Mumbai. If verified, these allegations could invalidate the previous claims by the ATS that the ISI or the SIMI were involved. Sadiq states in his confession, ‘‘All five of us arranged local first class train passes beforehand. We also had the local train time table with us so that we could choose a train as per our convenience. We purchased bags and pressure cookers in Bombay.’’ He also claimed to have misled investigators by blaming the attacks on the Al-Qaeda.

Impact

Heightened security measures

In wake of the blasts, the Indian government tightened security in railway stations. Under new restrictions passed by the Ministry of Railways, non-passengers would no longer be allowed on the railway platforms after July 2006. Other major security steps include installation of close circuit televisions inside the stations for round-the-clock vigil and installation of metal detectors.^[26]

Setback for the India-Pakistan peace process

Following the bomb attacks, Minister of State of External Affairs E. Ahamed announced on 14 July that India would suspend the talks with Pakistan until President Pervez Musharraf abides by his 2004 promise of ending all support to cross-border terrorism.^[27] However, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has conveyed India's willingness to be flexible with Pakistan following Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf's statements that ending the three-year long peace process would signal a victory for the separatist terrorists.^[28]

On 16 September at the summit of the Non-Aligned Movement in Havana Cuba, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and President Pervez Musharraf made a joint statement announcing that the two countries would resume formal peace negotiations and set up a joint agency to tackle terrorism.^[29]

Statements in response

Main article: Statements in response to the 11 July 2006 Mumbai train bombings

Various senior political figures from India and around the world condemned the attacks. In India, Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh was quick to call for calm in Mumbai, while President Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam, Railways Minister Lalu Prasad Yadav, and president of the Indian National Congress Sonia Gandhi also issued statements regarding the bombings in Mumbai. Officials from other nations offered their condolences to those affected by the bombings. Officials, from Pakistan which has long feuded with India, and the United Kingdom, which was the target of similar attacks the previous July, were among those who denounced the attacks in Mumbai as well as terrorism as a whole. Several terrorist groups, including Lashkar-e-Toiba and al-Qaeda, made comments — both in condemnation and condonation — about the attacks as well.

Memorial service

A memorial service was held in Mumbai on 18 July at 6:25 pm local time — exactly one week after the blasts. President Abdul Kalam, his hand raised to his forehead in salute, led the two-minute silence as people lit candles and placed wreaths at Mahim station, one of the seven places on the suburban rail network hit by bombs. Sirens sounded across Mumbai marking the memorial service. People gathered at the site of the blasts, in railway stations on the city's Western Line and millions of people stopped talking, traffic came to a halt and cinemas interrupted films as a city that never stops observed a silence for bombing victims.

......................What The Fiddle Dee Fuck??? .....................

................WTF ?????

Some guy in Ireland chops down a tree and suddenly everyone is treating it as a holy object coz it apparently resembles the Virgin Mary.

Well - in good light with some spandex, strategically placed padding and a professional freakin stylist I've been known to resemble Vin Freakin Diesel!!!

Catholicism - it's for nutters............ and leprechauns.

Oy vey.................................

It's bad enough that they worship statues - but now bits of wood ?!?!?!?!?!?

See the article underneath for more details - I need a drink............. Goddammit.

Thousands of Irish Catholics have flocked this week to a County Limerick church to pray at the stump of a recently cut willow that many observers say has the silhouette of the Virgin Mary.

The phenomenon at St Mary's parish church in Rathkeale, population 3,000 or so, harkens back to decades when Catholic devotion and pilgrimages were the dominant feature of rural life in Ireland.

Some are tying the fervor for Rathkeale's "Holy Stump" to Ireland's stunning economic decline over the past year.

"People have been crying out for something good to happen. And this is all good for the soul," said Noel White, who has been overseeing a church project to cut down trees dangerously overhanging the neighboring school playground.

When one willow was felled near the church entrance Monday, he said, a major branch cracked off and made "a funny shape." One worker cut through the stump at a near-vertical angle, revealing a wooden relief that inspires some to see the Virgin Mary.

"One lad beside the one who'd made the cut immediately saw the outline of Our Lady and blessed himself. It really is unreal. Every one of us could see it," he said.

The workman who made the cut, Anthony Reddin, said he doesn't see the Virgin Mary.

"I see it as the grain of a tree myself," he said.

Nonetheless, word of mouth brought about 100 to inspect and pray at the stump that first night. Numbers swelled to several hundred the next night. By Wednesday, more than a thousand came and went as a makeshift shrine of candles, rosaries and miniature statues of Mary grew. The praying continued past 2am Thursday.

The parish priest is away on vacation. His summer replacement, the Rev. Willie Russell, is not impressed. He says locals are letting their imagination run wild and threatening to violate the commandment, "Thou shalt not worship a false God."

"It's just a tree. You don't worship a tree," Russell said.

The priest said he saw no harm in saying Hail Mary prayers at the spot – so long as the faithful don't actually find themselves praying to the stump itself. "I don't believe in idolatry. That would be the danger," he said.

The County Limerick diocese of the church said it viewed the stump with "great skepticism."

"While we do not wish in any way to detract from devotion to Our Lady, we would also wish to avoid anything which might lead to superstition," the diocese said in a statement.

People who know me know that the ONE big thing for me is civility.

I grew up in a low low working class home with very little money, but my Mother instilled excellent manners in her kids. She used to tell me that class is never about money, it's about manners.

When did we lose it?

When did we become this rude, obnoxious, trashy, gutter mouth society?????

Have I had a head injury for the last ten years????

Here's what bugs me about now manners......

• People driving RIGHT on your bumper.
• People who have never heard of PLEASE or THANK YOU.
• People who steal - or attempt to - steal your car park.
• People who beep at you whilst you are at a zebra crossing LETTING people cross.
• People who don't give way on round-a-bouts.
• People who talk over you and never let you finish a sentence - this one gets me angry to the point I want to pick up a chair and crush their skull in. Yup - I'm a keeper.
• People who are right in your face and have NO sense of personal space.

I could go on for hours :) - and you know I could - but what gets your ire up re our very un-civilised society?

I miss my trips to Savannah - southern civility was almost like a ballet in manners *sigh*
