Are you looking for a free and functional therapy tool? How about a take-out menu? Menus are practical, full of language concepts and can be used for a variety of speech and language goals. Many young adults on my caseload have limited literacy skills and often find themselves dependent on others to order for them in dining situations. If they can't read the menu accurately they won't know all of their choices unless someone reads it to them.
What's more functional than being able to read a menu and make a choice for themselves? Some menus have pictures, but most do not. Even menus with images and words are tricky if you're not familiar with all of the dishes.
When using a menu as a treatment tool, I ask my clients, "What are your favorite places to eat?" Many times they don't know names of restaurants, but can describe the type of food they prefer (e.g. Mexican, pizza, Italian). This is also an ideal opportunity to connect with family members by getting details about restaurants they visit and food they order.
When I ask a client, "How do you know what to order?" many of them respond by saying: "I just get the pizza/chicken/hamburger," or: "My parents order for me," or: "I ask the waitress for the food I want." All of these answers work when dining out, but none give clients the ability to .take charge of their preferences.
Here are 10 speech and language goals I target when using menus in treatment:
- Literacy: Work on learning to read menu-related key words like appetizer, salads, sandwiches, chicken or fish. Create a bingo game with new words, so your client becomes fluent. Review the same menu over several sessions so your client familiarizes themselves with it.
- Categorization: What food group is broccoli in? How about chicken? I like to work on this goal of food groups with a game called Healthy Helpings My Plate Game. Try grouping foods by cost depending on your client's budget or by healthy versus not healthy foods.
- Requesting: Practice requesting by asking your client to tell you what they would want from that particular menu, such as: "I want the sesame chicken with brown rice."
- Pragmatics: Work on role playing by pretending you are the waitress and your client is the customer. Reverse roles and practice greetings, turn-taking, being polite, and more.
- Describing/Commenting: Review different foods and ask your client to describe specific For example, "What is the difference between thin crust pizza and thick crust pizza?" or, "Describe what crispy chicken tastes like." If your clients can describe their preferences in detail, the better they'll get at ordering.
- Answering "wh" questions: As you review the menu, ask "wh" questions like: "What is your favorite item on the menu?", "Why do you like chicken nuggets?",
- Expanding vocabulary: Using varied menus exposes clients to new and unfamiliar vocabulary. I even learn new terms when reading a menu from a restaurant I've never visited. (Recently I participated in a cooking class and learned several new words.) Review new vocabulary and discuss its meaning. An ideal way for your consumer to comprehend food-related words is to show your client an image. Using Google Images is an easy way to do this.
- Money Concepts: Work on the language of money concepts with your consumer. Present a budget and figure out what they can order within it. Ask "What happens if you go over budget?" or other money-related questions.
- Problem Solving: Discuss possible situations that your client might have to solve using a menu. For example, what happens if they run out of your favorite item? What do you do if you have an allergy? What do you tell the waitress if you don't like your food?
- Sequencing: Discuss the order of how you're going to order food and drink items. For example, you normally order drinks first, appetizers next, entrée and then dessert. Reviewing the menu can be carried over to other activities related to sequencing.

A company's reputation will surely suffer if its trade practices are found to be deceptive or misleading, unless such deception is the work (and proven to be the work) of another, such as a competitor. Trade secret, which can be a simple formula, program, device, method, technique, process, practice or any critical information that can be the source of economic gain to someone who discloses or uses it, is what makes one company more successful than its competitors. Thus, to protect a company's competitive edge or trade secret, it has been considered as one the categories that need to be put under the protection of the Intellectual Property Law.
Obtaining trade secrets through illegal means is a violation of federal and state laws. The state, generally speaking, is the one primarily tasked to enforce trade secrets laws, however, a law passed in 1996, the Economic Espionage Act (EEA), gives the federal government the authority to take charge over certain cases. This same Act also gives the U.S. Attorney General the power to prosecute anyone (individuals or companies), who/which will be proven as involved, in whatever way, in the misappropriation of trade secrets. The Attorney General has, likewise, been given the authority to impose severe punishment on whoever will be found guilty of deliberate stealing, copying or receiving of trade secrets. And, if a foreign government or business firm will benefit from a trade secret misappropriation, then the punishments to be imposed on those found guilty and caught will be doubled.
Besides trade secrets, another category placed under the protection of the Intellectual Property Law is trademark. A trademark, also called brand name or service mark can refer to a slogan, logo, mark or symbol that will directly identify the provider or source of goods or services.
A trademark, even by itself, can distinguish quality goods and services from substandard ones. Thus, some have just have the inclination to make their brand name, symbol, logo, as well as the colors of the symbol, as close as possible to the original, in an attempt to lure or mislead inattentive and unassuming customers.
In its website, the law firm Williams Kherkher points out the importance of being competitive early on in the business, as well as the importance of protecting and defending business rights and interests against anyone out to ruin a company's good name. Trade secrets and other intellectual property rights represent one of the cornerstones upon which the U.S. economy has been built. If a company's rights have been infringed upon or misappropriated in any way by a competitor, it will certainly be in the best interests of the owner for the dispute to be resolved in the courts. Even if the other party offers to settle out of court, consulting with an attorney before making any decision will be more advantageous and may even be necessary.

If you have a child who is addicted to drugs or alcohol, or who is financially irresponsible, you already know the heartbreak associated with trying to help that child make healthy decisions. Perhaps your other adult children are living independent lives, but this child still turns to you to bail him out – either figuratively or literally – of trouble.
If these are your circumstances, you are probably already worrying about how to continue to help your child once you are gone. You predict that your child will misuse any lump sum of money left to him or her via your will. You don't want to completely cut this child out of your estate plan, but at the same time, you don't want to enable destructive behavior or throw good money after bad.
Trusts are an estate planning tool you can use to provide an inheritance to a worrisome heir while maintaining control over how, when, where, and why the heir accesses the funds. This type of trust is sometimes called a spendthrift trust.
As with all trusts, you designate a trustee who controls the funds that will be left to the heir. This trustee can be an independent third party (there are companies that specialize in this type of work) or a member of the family. It is often wise to opt for a third party as a trustee, to prevent accusations among family members about favoritism.
The trust can specify the exact circumstances under which money will be disbursed to the heir. Or, more simply, the trust can specify that the trustee has complete and sole discretion to disburse funds when the heir applies for money. Most parents in these circumstances discover that they wish to impose their own incentives and restrictions, rather than rely on the judgment of an unknown third party.
The types of conditions or incentives that can be used with a trust include:
If you are considering writing this type of complex trust, it is advisable to seek assistance from a qualified and experienced estate planning attorney who can help you devise a plan that best accomplishes your wishes with respect to your child.

[How To] Reset Your iDevice Root SSH Password
It happens to the best of us. You zealously jailbreak your iP(hone)(ad)(od Touch) and dutifully change your root password from the well-known default, "alpine," so as to prevent grief and rickrolls in the future. For good measure, you change your mobile password, too.
Then one day, you want to SSH or SFTP into your device. Your fingers skim the keyboard lightly as you enter your IP address and root password while humming a cheerful tune, but when you hit "Enter," the unthinkable happens — YOU GET AN ERROR.
This happens several times before you realize it's because you've forgotten your root password, but because you don't know the password, you can't reset it to "alpine" via MobileTerminal.
Suddenly, rickrolls don't look so bad.
Never fear, though — there's a very easy fix! On your device, pop open Cydia and search for the "iFile" app. Download it to your device (there's a free trial) and open it up.
Now, in the upper left hand corner you'll see a "back"-type button. Keep tapping it until it disappears, and the title of the page is a / (slash mark). This means you're at the root directory. Be careful not to mess anything up here; the consequences could be severe. ;)
Navigate to /private/etc/. Scroll past the directories at the top and you'll see a bunch of files with no extension. Tap the one called "master.passwd" and choose "Text Viewer" to open it. Next, hit the "Edit" button in the upper left hand corner. Scroll to the line that says
root:/RANDOMCHARACTERSHERE:0:0::0:0:System Administrator:/var/root:/bin/sh
Of course, RANDOMCHARACTERSHERE is going to have actual characters, it differs depending on your password. Whatever it is, replace it with
root:/smx7MYTQIi2M:0:0::0:0:System Administrator:/var/root:/bin/sh
And you're good to go! You can now log in as root again with "alpine" (but make sure to change your pass again)!
In case you need to reset your mobile password (if you don't know what this means, disregard it), just find the line right below the "root" line that reads
mobile:/RANDOMCHARACTERSHERE:501:501::0:0:Mobile User:/var/mobile:/bin/sh
Replace it with
mobile:/smx7MYTQIi2M:501:501::0:0:Mobile User:/var/mobile:/bin/sh
Now your mobile password is also set to "alpine"!

A new type of evidence: the genomes of extinct human relatives
Self-domestication would occur in species that display anatomical and behavioural features which are typical of domestic animals in comparison to their wild types. However, in these cases, domestication would have taken place without any other species domesticating the others. Several studies proposed the hypothesis stating that humans –and other species such as bonobos- domesticated themselves. The aim of this study was to find out biological evidence of the self-domestication by looking at a new type of data that has become available: the genomes of our extinct relatives, such as Neanderthals or Denisovans.
"One reason that made scientists claim that humans are self-domesticated lied within our behavior: modern humans are docile and tolerant, like domesticated species, our cooperative abilities and pro-social behaviour are key features of our modern cognition", says Cedric Boeckx. "The second reason is that modern humans, when compared to Neanderthals, present a more gracile phenotype that resembles the one seen in domesticates when compared to their wild-type cousins," added the expert. To identify signs of a self-domestication process in humans, researchers made a list of genes associated with domestication features in humans, out of the comparison with the genome in Neanderthals and Denisovans, extinct human species. Then, they compared this list to the genome from some domesticated animals and their wild relatives, for instance, dogs compared to wolves, and cattle compared to wisents.
Results showed that this overlap was only relevant between domesticated species and humans. "Those modern humans' selected genes under selection may prove central to a relevant process of domestication, given that these interactions may provide significant data on relevant phenotypic traits", said Cedric.
Intersection between modern humans and domesticated species
Researchers also employed other statistical measures, including control species, to certify these results. Their aim was to rule out the fact that these genes could be randomly overlapped between humans and domesticated animals when compared, so they compared the genomes among other great apes. "We found that chimpanzees, orangutans and gorillas do not show a significant overlap of genes under positive selection with domesticates. Therefore, it seems there is a 'special' intersection between humans and domesticated species, and we take this to be evidence for self-domestication," Boeckx said. Researchers note that there is still more experimental work to do in order to find out the anatomical, cognitive and behavioural characteristics that are associated with these genes. "We suspect it will cover the anatomical, cognitive, and behavioral characteristics that researchers used to motivate the idea of self-domestication. We think that the overlap we found could help us explain our special mode of cognition and why we are strikingly cooperative, but this remains to be put to the test. In a sense, what we did is narrow down the set of genes to examine experimentally", concluded Cedric Boeckx.

text: One of the important properties of SOM is its topology preservation of the input data. The topographic error is one of the techniques proposed to measure how well the continuity of the map is preserved. However, this topographic error is only applicable to the crisp SOM algorithms and cannot be adapted to the fuzzy SOM (FSOM) since FSOM does not assign a unique winning neuron to the input patterns. In this paper, we propose a new technique to measure the topology preservation of the FSOM algorithms. The new measure relies on the distribution of the membership values on the map. A low topographic error is achieved when neighboring neurons share similar or same membership values to a given input pattern.

Thank goodness I cleaned my closet out earlier this week and found this cream pearl covered tank I got as a hand me down from my aunt a few months back. I wore it once for an event during the winter months (SEE POST HERE) and it's the perfect piece to elevate a simple pair of jeans.
I rocked my pearl covered hand me down with my J.Crew Denim (Here) and my shoes where off the rack from DSW (Similar here) . I was comfortable and I really love the detail of pearls on the top.

So, would you? Most people have an automatic response to this question - many people will say 'yes' straightaway because they love librarianship and know it is largely misunderstood, while others will say 'no' straightaway because they've had a rough time of it.
What I'm interested in is, would you ACTUALLY recommend it to someone, who might then act on your recommendation? I was asked about entering the profession in an email recently, and my reply sounded, I realised as I re-read it, quite negative. That's because I think you have a responsibility when someone wants your advice to actually think about what you're saying! And there's a lot to be said for not-entering librarianship (by the end of the decade who knows how many worthwhile jobs there will actually be, for example) just as there is a lot to be said for entering it (it's ace). I sometimes worry that we're so busy promoting our value and the value of the profession, that we blindly tell everyone to become librarians even though they might not thank us later if they become one.
So I asked Twitter, a brief and unscientific 24hr poll. 133 responses. It started off more or less equal, with recommending just about edging ahead of not doing so - when I tweeted something to this effect, the vast majority of the subsequent votes were in favour of recommending it. So I don't know if that's because people who hadn't previously voted felt moved to 'defend' the profession, or just a coincidence.
So of the 133 respondents, 72% would recommend this profession of ours.
Here's the split by country. This started off VERY interesting because the US had 100% of voting no, but then every single other vote from that country was yes so it ended up being a landslide in favour of recommendation... Ireland, from this miniscule sample-size, doesn't look much fun.
So would you recommend librarianship to a friend? I'd like to hear what you think in a comment.
Some reasons I can think of why I wouldn't recommend it:
- you can't avoid starting at the bottom (can't do the MA until you've had a year of experience, can't get a higher graded job without the MA);
- some career paths hit the buffers very early on unless the right person happens to retire / move etc;
- the long-term future of the profession is far from certain;
- constantly fighting peoples' misconceptions of what we do and how valuable it is (I think the need to do this may fade over time because I'm far less fussed about it than I used to be);
- there are far more capable librarians than there are decent posts;
- the money isn't amazing for the first few years (I know it's very cool to not care about money but when you're having to buy new shoes for your toddler every 3 months, you do);
- you have to fork out a fortune to do the MA but, if you think about it, the difference between librarians with the Masters and those without it is very rarely the Masters. It's a qualification that is both essential and of questionable value. .
Some reasons why I would recommend it (heavily academic-librarianship bias here):
- it's fantastically engaging;
- the community (if you chose to be part of it) is kind, fun, and unremittingly helpful and happy to share information and advice;
- you get to work in a role that helps people, which is genuinely fulfilling even for a partial-cynic like me;
- unless you're unlucky you won't be expected to work longer than the hours of your contract (so many non-librarians I know work all the hours God sends, and are incredibly jealous of the flexitime scheme I'm on);
- libraries are supportive employers, generally;
- you get to investigate, write about and train people on stuff you're interested in anyway, in my case;
- you can do academicy stuff like presenting at conferences and writing papers, without having to actually BE an academic;
- once you get up the ladder a bit you get a lot of freedom and your time is self-directed as well as self-managed;
- the people you work with are NICE. .
For me, my day to day environment is the most important thing. I'd rather live in a smaller house in a nicer area than a grand house further away from town. I'd rather work in a nice room with nice people who will understand if I need to go home and pick up my daughter from nursery, than have a high status job with a company car a career trajectory ending in a six-figure salary. My job is challenging but fun, it suits ME better than any profession I could imagine.
But everyone is different, and I'm already entrenched in this profession, whilst at the same time developing the skills to keep working if this profession ceases to exist - that's a very different situation from advising someone to just now start applying for entry-level library posts with a view to doing their Masters in October 2014 and maybe, just maybe, getting a job they really want in 2017ish.
Where do you stand on this? What would you add?

Knowing the application's demands and the sensor's capabilities is critical for accelerometer selection.
Vibration monitoring of critical and auxiliary pumping systems helps improve machine reliability, safety and production capability. Pumps produce vibrations indicative of running condition, incipient faults and component failure. These vibrations appear at specific frequencies across a wide spectrum.
Industrial piezoelectric accelerometers provide the dynamic and frequency ranges required for complete pump monitoring. Vibration is an integral part of an effective, predictive maintenance program, enabling the early detection of failure modes such as impeller erosion, pump imbalance, shaft looseness, coupling problems and cavitation. The vibration sensor that is for the application will depend on the frequencies of interest and the type of pump being monitored.
Fault-Based Sensor Selection
Most pumps can operate from 450 to 3,600 cpm (7.5 to 60 Hz) depending on site pumping requirements, available horsepower, drive and gearing. General-purpose accelerometers, those with an output of 100 mV/g, are adequate for these mid-band frequencies. However, pump faults can cause vibrations across a wide frequency range. Accelerometers should be selected based on the faults and ranges of interest.
Very Low-Frequency Monitoring
Many destructive system faults appear at very low frequencies and can be identified by accelerometers, which can sense problematic vibrations in the 0.5 Hz (30 cpm) range. One such fault is vertical pump fluid lubricated bearing whirl, which occurs at 40 to 50 percent of the shaft speed. Other examples that can be detected with low frequency accelerometers include the identification of sub-running speed natural resonant frequencies of the discharge head and support structures; destructive surge pulsations that can be as low as 6 cpm (0.1 Hz); and low-frequency, unsteady broadband distribution of many peaks indicative of turbulence (vortexing).
Motion in terms of acceleration is very low at these frequencies. When low amplitude vibrations are measured near the electronic noise floor of the sensor or monitoring instrument, the signal to noise ratio can corrupt the real signal. Problems such as ski slope and low-frequency roll off can make it difficult, if not impossible, to discern the real signal. In these circumstances, higher sensitivity sensors (500 mV/g units) must be used to fully characterize these low-frequency, low-level signals.
However, most measurements are recorded in terms of velocity units, accomplished by electronically integrating the acceleration signal into velocity. This filtering is another source of noise and should be considered when choosing a monitoring solution. The best way to accomplish this is to use a high sensitivity accelerometer and externally integrate the signal to velocity. Start with a 500 mV/g sensor for the best signal to noise ratio. This will enable you to read normal pump vibrations, typically at 0.04 inches per second or lower, and to maintain a signal-to-noise ratio of greater than 80 db even at low speeds.
Mid- to High-Frequency Monitoring
Many pump vibrations are directly related to the running speed of the pump (or multiples of the running speed) and the motor drive system. These vibrations occur in the mid- to high-frequency range of 450 to 60,000 cpm (7.5 to 1,000 Hz). These examples include harmonics of drive motor and pump running speed and vane/impeller pass frequency.
Signal-to-noise ratio problems are rare in this frequency range due to the strong vibration signal. Most general purpose vibration sensors (100 mV/g) provide a strong enough signal to be easily measured without fear of signal corruption.
Very High-Frequency Monitoring
Very high frequency vibrations usually represent an abnormal condition. Generally, above 300,000 cpm (5,000 Hz) high-frequency mechanical events appear as a broadband random noise signal. High-frequency mechanical noise can be caused by pump cavitation, entrained gas (aeration or starvation) and high pressure leaks.
High-frequency vibrations can also indicate incipient faults on bearings, casings, rotors, and piping. They are usually identified using high frequency accelerometers, which have the signal high pass filtered to remove the low frequency components which mask the signal of interest. High frequency signals, however, can overload the sensor and disturb low frequency data. High-sensitivity, low-frequency accelerometers are especially susceptible to this high frequency overload problem. Sensor overload causes low-frequency distortion and may obscure valuable sub-rotational and harmonic running speed information.
To solve this problem, select a 10 mV/g accelerometer designed to greatly reduce high-frequency overload and the chance of low-frequency signal corruption. These sensors will better handle the high-frequency, high-amplitude signals generated from the above conditions. Another advantage of lower sensitivity sensors is that they tend to be smaller in size resulting in a higher resonance frequency.
Equipment-Based Sensor Selection
If a pump has never experienced a specific past problem to watch for, then general health monitoring will cover the broadest range of problems. General purpose 100 mV/g sensors, with a frequency range from 0.5 to 14,000 Hz, are appropriate for most pumps. Even knowing this, the multitude of pump varieties can make monitoring techniques unclear. The information below can help cut through some of the complexity.

Dolls are made from a wide variety of materials. The majority of the dolls constructed as early as 1850 were made in England. These Queen Anne dolls were made from sculpted and painted wood. Papier mache dolls were popular in the beginning of the nineteenth century, made in France, Germany and the United States. Poured wax dolls were made in England from 1840 to the end of the nineteenth century. Some of the later wax dolls were reinforced with plaster or papier mache.
Heat up wax in a steel pot over a flame. Choose the type of wax; natural pure wax, synthetic wax, or a combination of both. Heat the wax to the melting point, but not to the flash point. If the wax is too hot, it can explode.
Pour the heated wax into a warm sculpted clay mold (see Resources). You can purchase a polymer clay doll mold at doll and hobby shops. The clay mold will have prefabricated doll facial features.
Insert the doll hair and the glass eyes into the wax head after the wax begins to cool down, while it is still soft. The wax will harden completely within 3 hours. Wax doll heads are more realistic than wood and papier mache, because the skin coloring is best portrayed using colored wax.
Shape the fine details of the facial features on the wax doll head by heating a small metal shaping spatula over an alcohol burner, and slowly melting small areas. This tool is ideal for making sure the nostril holes are equal and lip lines are distinct. Use a wax pen to add small amounts of wax to the head as needed. This tool is especially helpful if the wax has holes or bubbles.
Construct a fabric doll body by following any doll body pattern (see Resources). Stuff the body with sawdust. Attach the wax head to the doll body neck using a strong adhesive glue.
Pour heated wax into polymer clay molds of arms and legs. Attach the wax limbs to the cloth body also with a strong adhesive glue.
Things You Will Need
- Wax
- Steel pot
- Flame
- Wax thermometer
- Clay doll head mold
- Clay arms & legs molds
- Doll hair
- Glass eyes
- Small metal shaping spatula
- Alcohol burner
- Wax pen
- Doll body pattern
- Fabric
- Scissors
- Needle
- Thread
- Adhesive glue
After constructing your wax doll parts you can use them as molds for creating plaster molds.
Do not spill any hot wax on your skin or other body parts. The hot wax can cause severe burns. If you use a heat gun to clean up your wax doll features, use caution. The high heat of the gun can easily distort your creations.

So we've decided we're going to make it work to have the baby here because I really don't want to move, and there aren't any two bedrooms on the market in our area, but I'm getting stressed about space! Reading all of the baby must haves are giving me anxiety!
So, did anyone successfully live with a newborn/baby (maybe even toddler?) in a small one bedroom apartment? And if so, what did you find you could live without? So far I'm thinking no changing table and using a minicrib?

On Friday, as President Obama crossed the Pacific to begin his first trip to Asia, the Census Bureau released its monthly trade tally. The headline was that the U.S. trade deficit grew to $36.5 billion in September, more than forecasters expected and the biggest such figure since January. But the really dramatic number was that 60.5% of the deficit, or $22.1 billion, was with just one country: China.
Obama arrived in Beijing Monday, but don't expect anything to get resolved. The U.S.-China economic relationship has become way too complicated and contradictory for simple solutions.
Within the U.S., the imbalance is mainly seen as the product of protectionist policies by China, in particular China's refusal to let its currency, the yuan, appreciate against the dollar. There's certainly something to this it's now universally agreed just about everywhere but China that a freely floating yuan would be worth significantly more than the 15 cents it currently goes for. By keeping its currency's value artificially low, China makes its products cheaper in the U.S., thus encouraging imbalanced trade.
But when China linked its currency to the dollar in the early 1990s, it was out not to create trade surpluses but to carve out a bit of stability in turbulent global currency markets. During the emerging-market currency crises of 1997 and 1998, China's success in keeping the yuan fixed at 8.3 yuan to the dollar was applauded in the West as a major contribution to averting financial chaos. Since 2005, China has been willing to allow the yuan to appreciate a bit (the current exchange rate is 6.8 yuan to the dollar). It just hasn't been willing to do this on any but its own extremely conservative terms.
In China, meanwhile, it is fashionable to blame U.S. trade deficits on the debt-addicted ways of American citizens and their government. There's an element of truth to this too. If the U.S. borrowed and spent less, its trade imbalances would be smaller. But China has been enabling this profligate behavior for years by buying trillions of dollars in U.S. government debt and mortgage securities as part of its continuing effort to you got it keep the yuan from appreciating too much against the dollar.
It's a bit reminiscent of the seemingly endless wrangles in the late 1980s and early 1990s with Japan, which accounted for the bulk of the U.S. trade deficit in those days. The trade deficit with Japan never shrank much in dollar terms, but it became smaller as a share of GDP starting in the mid-1990s, and was eclipsed by the trade imbalance with China in 2000 (in September the U.S. trade deficit with Japan was $4.1 billion, compared to $22.1 billion with China). The issue was never resolved, but it ceased to seem so important. Could that happen with China?
Probably not. There are two crucial differences. One is that much of today's U.S. trade deficit comes from U.S.-based corporations selling products at home that were partly or entirely made in China. As a result, the trade relationship with China has become far more ingrained in the economic fabric of the U.S. than that with Japan ever was. Some evidence: in the first nine months of 2009, the global economic slowdown cut the U.S. deficit with Japan 47% compared with the first nine months of 2008. The deficit with China dropped just 16%.
An even more important difference is that the stakes are higher with China. Japan seemed like a fearsome economic rival a quarter-century ago, but it wasn't really a political rival and, with a population less than half that of the U.S., it was unlikely ever to surpass the U.S. as an economic power. China, with its billion-plus population, seems destined to surpass the U.S. in economic clout, and it appears to have designs on rivaling the U.S. as a political and military power. Which means there's no easy way out of the U.S.-China trade impasse.

I Don't Know How This Happened
So the other night Rikki was playing with some bright red lipstick Victoria's Secret gave me, and suddenly turn to Kelsey and I and said "who am i!?" You can imagine that we couldn't just let it end there.
And apparently Rikki was so inspiring that Kelsey ended up as a zebra...or a white tiger...or a crazy person in stripes.
Yeah. There aren't really words to describe hanging out with Queen Amidala.
Queen Amidala rides a Zebra? And yes, that's Kelsey's Prom dress. And yes, those are Kelsey's hands in my slippers.
Other news this week: Leslie's fish died. What was most amazing is that it was swimming around upside down at the very end. That was really funny, though Leslie and Rikki were freaking out about it. I was the only one "heartless" enough to flush it.

Acne and Exercise
Working out at the gym may tone your muscles and cause the ladies and gents to swoon over your chiseled physique. But when they get a closer look and realize you're covered with acne, your six-pack abs can't save you.
Skin, the body's most visible and largest organ, can be riddles with acne problems after a workout. During exercise, your oil producing sebacious glands are also hard a t work thanks to a raised heart rate. Oils and water that is lost from sweat can cause extra oil and dehydrated skin. The perfect breading ground for acne.
Cleanse, don't damage your skin after a workout.
Product that exfoliate dead skin cells and contain alpha hydroxy acids, derived from willow bark, should only be used after a workout, not before.
Using this product can cause skin to be irritated, more so if you have sensitive skin.
Sweating is good for you! Besides a natural cooling system for the body, it also rids your body of toxins. But you don't want these staying on your skin. Always cleanse within thirty minutes of post workout.
While at the gym, give your showroom physique a break and show off your clear, healthy skin. You might get more attention than you think.

Misinformed information about athletic skin care
It astonishes me how many persons are misinformed about proper skin care products for fitness/athletic lifestyles.
As I read forums, Yahoo Answers and even creditable magazines, I am amazed at the product recommendations made. Some of these are innocent opinions of people, who are entitled to share their opinion, but usually add that the product is okay, or are not that happy with their skin. Some are even doctors, who don't lead athletic lifestyles.
Most persons are just down right confused about what is the best cleanser for after a workout or before a workout. A moisturizer for an athletic lifestyle. When one works up a sweat via a raised heart rate from a 3-4 mile run or one hour of weight lifting, those oil producing sebacious glands are in over drive.
The avid exerciser also produces more dead skin cells which is akin to saran wrap, a translucent coating on the skin invisible by human eye, not removed correctly and frequently can lead to skin dullness, acne and dryness. Exfoliate? Sure, it was suggested an apricot scrub is great. Apricot seeds are known to abrade delicate skin tissue, even when not used frequently. But, hey, its only about 6 bucks for a big jar of it. Invest in your skin. Its the most visible and largest organ of your body.
Let me start with cleansers. A staple to a sweaty post workout cleanse. Most of the suggested cleansers for after a workout are mass produced brands that any person can use, including sedentary lifestyles. Currently, I noticed a drug store brand that simply added the word "sport" after the word cleanser. It lists a brief amount of ingredients, mostly synthetic and chemicals with parabens. None of these ingredients work as astringents to kill off the bacteria found in sweat thus leading to acne or any natural emollients to keep adequate moisture levels in the skin from excessive water loss from sweating and sodium, which can be drying to the skin.
But, the general consumer will purchase the product because its only five or eight bucks and the packaging and graphics are appealing to the eye. In the long run, its expensive to buy cheap.
Most of these cleansers contain a higher amount of water than active ingredients so the supply lasts a very little time, before you know it, you are running back to the drug store to buy more. Also, although they make strong claims as "deep pore cleansing" and "keeps your skin worry free from working out", the formula of ingredients don't come even close to achieving these claims.
Then we have the brands the department stores carry. You see, there is no such thing as "department store brands". Another misleading statement to the consumer who thinks if they are purchasing skin care products at a fancy department store with a high price tag they are doing their athletic skin a good thing. Not so.
These brands rent space from the department store. And they pay big bucks to do so, which in the end the consumer actually pays for and for the fancy corrugated packaging and sophisticated glass jars and bottles. Ask the person behind the counter what she/he would recommend for acne induced by exercise, and for certain, they will recommend a general cleanser for acne; period. And a moisturizer for oily skin. Sorry, won't do the job. They may even tell you how great it cleared up their skin when they don't break a sweat from exercise 4-5 times a week.
Maybe I'm too honest, which is why I will never be a millionaire. And that's okay with me. Because ethics and a great conscious is priceless.
With a fitness lifestyle, do you have special skin care needs? Yes. You also need to think of your skin care "regimen" as importantly as you do your workout regimen.
After reading my articles, I'd love to hear your opinion about products for the fitness lifestyle. And when someone recommends a cleanser for after a workout or body creme after showering up to 3 times a day-do your homework.
Use a skin care line specially formulated for the athletic one and you'll experience and learn the difference. Stick with an easy skin care regimen too. But, easy does not mean just wiping sweat off your face with a towelette. Another "worst" thing one can do to their skin after a workout.

Girls was an American monthly comic book limited series created by Jonathan and Joshua Luna, published by Image Comics between 2005 and 2007.[1]
It tells the story of the people of Pennystown, a community of 63 who are cut off from the rest of the world and attacked by a group of naked, flesh eating, egg-laying women, as well as other bizarre dangers. The first issue was published in May 2005 and the last in April 2007, after 24 issues.[2]
After a young man named Ethan Daniels is thrown out of the bar in the town of Pennystown, he meets a mysterious naked and injured woman out on the street. He takes her to his home, and after he tries unsuccessfully to get information from her, they have intercourse. He leaves her in his house the next day to report the situation to the local police officer, running across his ex-girlfriend Taylor in the process. They return to Ethan's home to find that the women he took in has laid eggs that hatch into full-grown identical copies of her. The Girls attack any other females they come across, forcing the townspeople to initially hide in their homes. The situation is complicated by a giant sperm-like monster in a cornfield and the discovery of an enormous reflective dome separating Pennystown from outside aid and from escaping. The townspeople are further stressed when the bridge collapses, killing many of them and demolishing almost all of the town's vehicles.
The townspeople are then attacked again and escape to a nearby farmhouse where they take advantage of the homeowner's hospitality by eating all of the food and running down the generator, much to her frustration. One of the men, Lester, is left behind at the bridge but later manages to make his way to where everyone is hiding. He initially tells everyone that he was attacked by the women but soon confesses that he had been injured by a moose and actually had sex with several of the Girls. This prompts Ethan to suggest that the Girls could lay eggs after intercourse, revealing that he had sex with the one he had taken home. This horrifies many of the women and upsets Taylor, who insisted that the two had been on a break rather than broken up. Tensions continue to rise, prompting the women and men to take sides based on their gender.
The men in the group end up taking some of the Girls prisoner, which ends up angering the women, who believe that they should be killed. This further alienates the women from the men, especially after it is discovered that one of the men had sex with one of the Girls. During a scuffle over the discovery, one of the men ends up striking his pregnant wife. This prompts one of the women, Nancy, to shoot his ear and lock most of the men into the shed after first killing the Girls. Some of the men, including Nancy's husband Kenny, escape into the woods. Kenny ends up having sex with several of the Girls and later tries to kill his wife when she discovers him after she and the others had been forced to leave the farmhouse.
Everyone eventually converges and it's discovered that the Girls had only been interested in the men for their semen. If they could not or would not copulate with them, the Girls would try to kill them as they did the women. This comes as a blow to many of the men, who had not taken the threat the Girls posed as seriously due to the idea that they would never be attacked. The book ultimately ends with the remaining townspeople killing off the rest of the Girls, which prompts the sperm monster to break the dome and shoot a beam into space. The surviving townspeople then mourn their dead friends and family as well as celebrate their survival as rain pours down on them. The scene then cuts to outer space, where another sperm monster is seen carrying another Girl to another planet.
The Lunas first began developing the idea for the series after Joshua Luna had a "random idea of a girl hatching out of an egg".[3] The Lunas then began building on the idea of a "beautiful monster", also questioning what would happen if the girl in question began multiplying through clones and how it would affect both men and women.[3] They stated that they chose to include themes of sexuality as well as gender issues and identification as a way of "[challenging] the way people thought" and that they wanted to make it as realistic as possible.[4][5] The story's setting, the small fictional town of Pennystown, was chosen in order to keep the cast as small as possible.[5]
Critical reception for Girls was mostly positive. Comic Book Resources commented that the series "exemplifies the best traditions of classic indie comics" and The A.V. Club named it as one of their "Best Comics Of 2007".[3][6] The Lunas noted that fan reaction to the series was occasionally different depending on the gender of the reader, remarking that "It's funny how some men could sympathize with one of the worst male characters, and just hate, hate the main female character, Nancy, but there'd be women who would empathize with Nancy and understand why she did the things she did, even though they were pretty vile. We did try to treat both genders equally."[4]
Collected editions[edit]
The issues have been collected into four trade paperbacks, each collecting six issues. The volumes were released between November 2005 and May 2007, with a hardcover deluxe edition collecting all 24 issues of the series.

How to upgrade Salix 13.0 to 13.1
Preparing for the upgrade
You first need to change the default repositories to the ones for Slackware and Salix 13.1. Open file /etc/slapt-get/slapt-getrc and change all "13.0" instances to "13.1". Also make sure the Slackware repositories have an OFFICIAL priority. Example setups are show below:
i486 architecture
SOURCE=http://salix.enialis.net/i486/slackware-13.1/:OFFICIAL SOURCE=http://salix.enialis.net/i486/slackware-13.1/extra/:OFFICIAL SOURCE=http://salix.enialis.net/i486/13.1/:PREFERRED
x86_64 architecture
SOURCE=http://salix.enialis.net/x86_64/slackware-13.1/:OFFICIAL SOURCE=http://salix.enialis.net/x86_64/slackware-13.1/extra/:OFFICIAL SOURCE=http://salix.enialis.net/x86_64/13.1/:PREFERRED
After you make the changes, run
slapt-get -u
Upgrading packages
It's always safer to upgrade your glibc package first:
slapt-get -i glibc
And then upgrade all other packages to their new versions:
slapt-get --upgrade
DO NOT use:
slapt-get --dist-upgrade
in any case. Although it might seem to be the best option for upgrading to a different version, it really isn't.
Upgrade your udev package, it's locked for upgrades in /etc/slapt-get/slapt-getrc so you have to ask for it explicitly:
slapt-get -i udev
Obsolete packages
Some packages have been obsoleted and should be removed. Some have been replaced by new packages. You can do this automatically with:
slapt-get --remove-obsolete --remove
Careful, because this will also remove all personal packages that you might have installed, if any. If you want a complete list of the obsolete packages, read the Slackware and Salix changelogs and look for entries marked with "Removed":
i486 changelogs
Slackware: ftp://ftp.ntua.gr/pub/linux/slackware/slackware-current/ChangeLog.txt
Salix: http://salix.enialis.net/i486/current/ChangeLog.txt
x86_64 changelogs
Slackware: ftp://ftp.ntua.gr/pub/linux/slackware/slackware64-13.1/ChangeLog.txt
Salix: http://salix.enialis.net/x86_64/13.1/ChangeLog.txt
Upgrading the kernel
You don't need to upgrade your kernel, especially if your hardware is running with no problems with the old kernel. If you want to, be advised that there might be complications if your system includes ATA hard drives. If you system includes SATA hard drives only, you'll have no such problems.
If you do have ATA hard drives, make sure your read the "LIBATA SWITCHOVER" section in the Slackware CHANGES_AND_HINTS.TXT file in any Slackware 13.1 repository, or you're likely to have your system not booting after the upgrade:
If you don't have any ATA hard drives, run a:
ls /var/log/packages/kernel*
to see which kernel packages you have installed and do a slapt-get -i for each one of them.
If you have switched to the kernel-generic package instead of the default kernel-huge package, don't forget to recreate the initrd.gz file which will be needed for booting you upgraded system. If you're still using the default kernel-huge package, an initrd is not needed anyway and you needn't be concerned about it.
After upgrading the packages, don't forget to edit your /etc/lilo.conf file accordingly and run:
lilo -v
to inform the bootloader about the kernel upgrade.
Configuration files
After doing all the upgrades, run:
to accept or reject new configuration files. Make sure that you DO NOT replace your /etc/passwd, /etc/shadow or /etc/group files. If you do, you will lose all users/groups/passwords you have in your system. However, even if you do, you can get the old files back, they will be kept in the same locations, with an .orig suffix.

Armed with a very knowledgeable tour guide, we got to explore The Chief Mobee Royal Family Original Slave Relic Museum, Seriki Faremi Williams Slave Museum and the Badagary Slave Route. I also got a chance to see the first storey building in Nigeria
I got to learn a lot about the history and the role of the town during the slave trade. Especially the oral history that has been passed down over the years by the people of Badagry. I have a put together a short narrative video of my trip and you can find it here.
The Visuals….
Our first stop was The Chief Mobee Family Museum
A display of some of the chains and bounds the slaves where forced to wear for 18 hours everyday while the worked.
The chains that go around the neck is so heavy, I couldn't lift it with one hand
Water container the slaves had to drink out of.
A painting of the famous Asisoe tin, where Christianity was preached for the first time
During the slave trade era, a canon of this size was exchanged for up to 100 slaves
Outside Seriki Faremi Williams Abass' compound
The entrance walls of Seriki Abass" compounds are lined with slave trade era memorabilia
Outside the first storey building in Nigeria, built in 1845. Originally built as a mission house for the first missionaries.
Photo of Bishop Crowther from inside the house. The mission house is where he translated the English bible to Yoruba language Heading to the point of no return
The halfway mark. Also the well from which the slaves were forced to drink. It is said that the well contained concoctions which caused the slaves short term memory loss and made them docile. Making it easier for them to be shipped off.
Point of no return….for the slaves
This is a walking distance of about 20-30 mins.
And from here the slaves would be shipped off, never to be seen again.
The beach at badagry is amazing. I took a minute to splash around in the clean salt water
I thoroughly enjoyed my visit, our tour guide was super friendly and patient. He waited while we took unending photos and made videos. The only real problem I had was DISTANCE.
Y'all, badagry is far. I am talking about 67Km from Ikeja (according to Google map) and the roads leading up to the town are not in the best condition. My advice is; leave home as early as possible.
The journey was long and tiring and all the way I swore I would never go back. But now that I am calm, I honestly cant wait to go back there. Plus I just learnt that there is a whispering palms and other attractions.
Now about cost, I must say it was a bit more expensive than I had originally budgeted. Entrance fee for each site was N500/ person. The cost of the boat ride and tour of the point of no return was N2000/person.
Meaning it cost a total of N3500/person for all tours
A few tips:
I didn't know this at the time but I have been told that the costs for all tour sites are actually negotiable, make sure to bargain accordingly
Please remember there is a bit of walking involved, there were no other means of transporting for tourist to get to the point of no return. Prepare accordingly.
Remember you are going to the seaside, the sun is going to be really scorching. If you have a sensitivity to the sun please carry a sunscreen or dress accordingly.
You will also need to stay hydrated be sure to bring drinks with you there are limited options for drinks.
Badagry town
If you have any questions or comments about the arena, if you are planning a visit and need more information please leave a comment or send an email to email@example.com and I will be sure to assist you any way I can.

Menominee River Rafting
Guided Menominee River Rafting Trips Class IV
Menominee River Whitewater Rafting from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day weekend. We offer guided Menominee River trips for the hearty whitewater rafting enthusiast. These whitewater rafting trips are run in our four to twelve place rafts under the supervision of Kosir's professional guides and include helmets, life jackets and paddles as well as transportation from our Menominee River Outpost to river and back again. The mighty Menominee River is a large volume river which has one of the greatest flows in the Midwest, with rapids and hydraulics similar to those of great western rivers. Bordered by the beautiful Upper Peninsula of Michigan, our trip starts out quietly in the scenic surroundings of Niagara, Wisconsin careening past 200-foot high cliffs. Then increasing its intensity through Sand Portage Rapid, it culminates with a 10-foot waterfall in the legendary Piers Gorge. Menominee River Whitewater Rafting trips are run at 10 am and 3 pm on Saturdays and 10 am on Sundays and Holidays. Special weekday trips are available.
Check-in time at our Menominee River Outpost is one full hour before scheduled whitewater rafting trip time. The Menominee River is a unique experience for the more adventurous whitewater rafters who want more! Kosir's Rapid Rafts only offers this whitewater rafting trip with the supervision of our guides. We offer all Menominee River Whitewater Rafting trips in our self-bailing rafts. Reservations are required, so please call ahead to make arrangements. (Sorry, no Funyaks allowed on the Menominee River Rafting Trips)
The Menominee River
The Menominee River is a large volume dam controlled river, with the dam located just above the raft put-in. The amount of water released by the dam is determined by the amount of water that the dam requires to produce power as well as the amount of rainfall in the area. The Menominee River typically will run at lower levels at night and then will see a large volume release late morning through the evening. The nice thing about the Menominee River is that we are able to run the large 6-12 person rafts at any level. Although lower water levels do involve a little more work and paddling in the calm section of the river, the "Piers Gorge" section where the five major rapids are located is always runable. The Menominee trips cover a 4 1/2-mile section of the river which begins in Niagara, Wisconsin and Ends in Norway, Michigan.
The Menominee River Trip
These trips begin in Niagara Wisconsin at our Menominee River outpost located on US HWY 8 about 1 1/2 miles East off of Hwy 141. Here you will check-in and receive your helmet and life jacket or any optional equipment you may need, such as a wet suit or spray jacket. Once everyone is geared up and ready there will be a brief orientation and then a short bus ride to the put-in. Located just below the Little Quinnesec Dam, the put-in overlooks one of the largest flows in the Midwest which is shadowed under the massive 200 foot high cliffs on the Michigan side of the river. This impressive view continues for the first 1 1/2 miles of the trip where the river runs wide and slow, giving everyone a chance to enjoy the scenery and get comfortable with the raft and equipment.
The next 1 mile of the trip starts off with Sand Portage Falls. A pleasant Class II-III rapid which was named by the early Indians that lived in the area many years ago. Here the river starts to narrow a bit and the flow rate increases. The river is still tame enough to take in the scenery but be prepared to start paddling.
At the end of this section is a small sand take out where everyone on the trip will get out and re-group. Once all the rafts are ashore everyone will be escorted up a trail along side the river. This path will take everyone to a cliff overlooking the river with a spectacular view of Misicot Falls and most of Piers Gorge. Everyone will get a chance to see the rapids before they raft through them. Once everyone has had a chance to take in the awesome view there is a final orientation. Everyone is then divided into groups and introduced to their guide who will give everyone their final instruction and personally escort them in their raft for this section of the river.
In this class IV section of the river, the rapids are so close together that it seems more like one long continuous rapid. The adventure starts with a 10-foot drop over Misicot Falls, you'll then follow the wave train to Volkswagen rock and then through the Island rapids and straight into the Twin Sisters. Just downstream from the second sister the river widens up and slows down a bit.
The groups will then pull their rafts onto shore and catch their breath. Then everyone will follow their guide on a trail back upstream for a chance to see the next raft go through the rapids. From there your guide will again lead you back on a trail upstream where everyone will get to raft this section a second time!*
This feature to see the rapids before running them as well as running them twice make this the perfect trip for those who have little or no experience or are a little unsure about rafting big water. Seeing the rapids before running them puts many people at ease and running the same section twice means that one of Kosir's staff is always on shore if anyone should choose not to raft this section or only wishes to do it once. We offer the second run on most of our trips to allow everyone the chance to raft with their eyes open!*
Once everyone has rafted through Piers George the entire group is escorted about 1/2 mile down the river to the take-out. Here the same bus that dropped everyone off will be waiting to take everyone back to the Outpost, which is only a couple of miles away. The length of the trips will vary with water and weather conditions but average about 4 hours.
* Very high water levels may prohibit us from allowing rafters to view the rapids and re-run the gorge a second time.

Oh hello again Sunday 🙂 The day where I very consciously try to never leave our apartment. We were flying around all week, working late, running long, cooking and cleaning nonstop, driving all over the place… It's good to be relaxed at home finally 🙂
A little synopsis of fun yoga poses 🙂
Also, BIG NEWS! We ran a half marathon on Saturday, and WE BOTH PR'ed!!! Yes, the course was indoors, flat, no hills or wind… but it felt so good to run as hard and as focused as I could. Patrick has always had bold goals for his runs; I never really thought about competing with myself for a PR. But on Saturday, at the halfway point I realized I could hit my PR if I maintained my pace, so I honed in on my goal and MADE IT HAPPEN [by approximately a minute and a half haha] It felt SO good to finish! I am super happy 🙂
I've had some awesome eats this week too. Protein bites with peanut butter (HOLY MAN DELICIOUS). A delicious egg scramble this morning for breakfast. I even had coffee every single day this week. Almost my entire mug every day! I rarely drink more than 8-10 oz a day, but this week required it haha.
We also got to drive to Chicago to visit our great friends Cassie and Leke, their new sweet sweet new baby and two wonderful kids! We went bowling, got Chinese, and then went glow-in-the-dark mini golfing haha! What a jam-packed day! Guys, I really don't even like holding babies, but she is so adorable and calm and curious, I couldn't stop holding her! I can't wait to see them more often and watch her grow!
OKAY – enough of my life story. Here are some awesome links I found this week 🙂
Sugar Content in Your Favorite Fruits. If you're like me and want to get most of your sweet/sugar from fruits, here's a good breakdown of the content of each kind!
11 Half Marathons that are Perfect for Beginners. This is such a great list!!!
Best Drink for People with Inflammation. I love tea, and you should learn to too!
Why You Should be Living a Zero-Waste Life. Shouldn't we all? 🙂

I can't wait to get outside. OMG OMG OMG. Here I come pavement! Sign me up for all the races you can find 🙂

Calgary through the eyes of writers
Rita is a hockey widow. Come September, she loses her husband, Sid to the game. Then there's her ten-year-old daughter, Lisa, who is intent on being as good a player as any boy on the rink. By January, hockey is eating into the household finances. The biggest expense? Sid's season ticket to watch the Bisons, a team he claims to hate.
Five years ago when the Bisons came to their city, Rita had been caught up in Sid's childish delight over it all. She had agreed about the season ticket, had even felt a measure of anxiety when he took his sleeping bag down to sleep outside the Bisons ticket office. What if they ran out just as his turn came? She had accepted it all so easily because, back then, Sid did work hard as a welder and was paying off his welding truck at record speed. At that time, it was also true that he had few amusements.
Well, things had changed. They had changed so completely it was impossible to believe Sid had failed to notice. Few amusements? Relative to whom, Rita wondered. Prince Andrew? His hockey drafts, his "fat man" hockey team, his going out to watch Bisons home games and the other games he watched with his buddies on the big screen down at the bar. Then there was his hockey card collection and his careful supervision of Lisa's.
Sid played constantly, as far as Rita could see, but she also realized that, somewhere along the line, Sid had ceased to view any of it as play. The season's ticket and the hockey cards were investments. the hockey pools were business. The fat man recreational hockey league (in spite of the gallons of beer and all the cigarettes afterward) was exercise. And the proof that none of it was play was that none of it was fun.

Generally men think of how to satisfy their women in bed but some men are unable to do that and they get depressed because they badly fail in front of their partners.
Women are not visual as men at the actual time. It happens to see that your women don't want what it seems on the bedroom but it also does not mean that what you think will not happen.
If you see then there are only few men who last longer in bed but not all night. Men gets excited after seeing 'porn' movies and they think to try those actions with their women but unfortunately they can't and they also don't satisfy their partner.
Though the videos shown on movies are not real life and they also don't bother what real women want. Therefore men should not go on those videos and should concentrate on their own sex life and stay powerful.
However mentioned below are some of the ways which is important for you to know that can help you to satisfy women in bed and you will be satisfied too.
Nowadays men do sex as they are in hurry for something or they just don't want to give time to their partners. They only want to get what they want and after that no response.
They think sex is a like a face cap or socks which have one size fits all. This is completely wrong thought because men should also think of their partner actually what they want. Men have to think what to do some extra so that sex can become an enjoyment for both.
For that you need to know your lady, actually what they want which can fulfill their needs. This can be done by talking to them and finding some funny ways which can make them enjoyable. Every women have different choice like many women turned by listening to music whereas others with mild liquor, stuff or chocolate.
Do whatever you want to do but keep in mind that you are doing all those to know what is her interest and how to turn her on. If you can do that then you can have an enjoyable sex life with your women.
Though you are a good sex gamer but if you forget to stimulate your partner's breasts and nipples then you can easily lose before the main thing appears. So you should take time and do some work on her body so that the excitement can be from both sides, make your tongue and hands active as well and let the game on process.
After you get under and penetrate, you should still maintain the contact with her body with the pair of boobs; press the nipples mildly and make her to have a bigger and faster orgasm.

While having sex with your partner, focus on female anatomy and her clitoris while foreplay. It becomes very important to know the female body, what is there and where it is located and if you don't know that also then it can be very disappointment for any partner.
If you want to satisfy your partner then it is also important to know where to focus your attention. But for that you should have a complete knowledge because women want clitoral stimulation to come and it is not located inside the vagina.
Though a penetrative sex feels good but it is totally different from men. Women need clitoral stimulation and so you can use your hands or can give an oral sex. Even the positions also involve in this process but you should not shift the positions frequently and should give some time to women so that they can build-up their sensation.
If you experiment some new ways then it is fine but when you see that the position is stimulating her then keep on going with the same position and don't change. Don't try to kill orgasms by changing the position because you are in the same for long time. Here the thing is important to learn which can help you to give her more orgasm and satisfy you too.

There is a saying 'ladies first' but this saying is necessary to apply in all aspects of life and applying also does not mean anything between couples. It is also not good to expect lady to do all these sexual relationship first than men because this is a general thing that men come first.
If you think that women would come and tell you to have sex then just forget it because this cannot be happen. And even you also don't want the impression to be bad of your women and neither she also want to show something like that.
Therefore very simple thing is that you should go first and make your sex like more romantic. Women want to be pampered and want to forget all the things while having sex, only one thing they want and that is men to take absolutely control on the things, especially when time comes in bed.
Therefore don't hesitate and don't be excited before, just make the first step, make her more orgasm, move your hands on her body, feel her excitement and just go on.
