The Nation
February 29, 2008, in Mingora, Pakistan
Uddin died in a suicide bombing that took the lives of more
than 40 people, according to Pakistani news reports. No organization claimed
responsibility for the attack, which occurred at the funeral of a slain police
officer and wounded about 80 people, including two other journalists.
The Swat Valley was a focal point of conflict at the time.
Militants had taken over much of the area in 2007, and government forces were
reasserting some control by early 2008.

On a given night in January 2010i:
Other estimates of the prevalence of youth homelessness:
Among homeless youth, when compared to housed peers or the general adolescent populationvii:
Youth who are homeless:
Research on rates of post-traumatic stress among homeless youth is minimal, but a 1989 study in Hollywood, CA found that rates were up to three times higher than their housed peersxii.
In 2007, the National Alliance to End Homelessness analyzed 17 research studies to estimate that 20% of youth who are homeless identify as LGBTQ2 xiii. Other prevalence estimates range from 6% to 35% of youth who are homelessxiv.
Estimates of youth involvement in foster care range from 13.8%-53%xxiii xxiv.
According to data from the 1996 NSHAPC study, 27% of all homeless clients reported living in foster care, a group home, or other institutional settingxxvii.

Everyone seems to have fond memories of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll, so I decided to give the book a try. The story is echoed and referenced in many other cultural works, so I confess that my standards were very high.
Within a few pages of reading I already hated it, but I powered through it nevertheless, hoping that there would be some redeeming quality somewhere. I was mistaken. What's worse, Alice, the heroine, is a bumbling idiot and an embarrassment for girls everywhere.
Reeling in my disappointment over such an important cultural work, I decided there was only one course of action: Alice had to die.
So intent was my murderous ambition, that I decided to read through the book again to pinpoint the likely places where Alice would bite the dust. Here are a few excerpts:
The rabbit-hole went straight on like a tunnel for some way and then suddenly down, so suddenly that Alice had not a moment to think about stopping herself before she found herself falling down a very deep well.
thump! thump! down she came upon a heap of sticks and dry leaves, and the fall was over.Alice was dead.
I love the previous excerpt because you get to kill off Alice right at the start of the story and spare yourself any more inane nonsense. I also did a quick sketch of the scene (above).
This one happens a little later in the story:
The Queen turned crimson with fury, and, after glaring at her for a moment like a wild beast, screamed 'Off with her head!'
Plop! The knave obeyed.
And finally, if you were as sore as I was about being duped into reading the whole stupid book, you might want to grab her right at the end:
Alice got up and ran off, thinking while she ran, as well as she might, what a wonderful dream it had been.
Lost in thought, Alice did not notice the rocks in her path. She tripped, broke her neck, and died.
If you have any other ways that Alice could die within the story, I'd love to hear them.

About Me Long-time Pet Owner
Best Uses
Comments about Woven Grass Pet Bed:
Both our small house rabbit & our larger house rabbit loved these square grass beds; the smaller rabbit displayed more interest in the grass beds than in the grass mats from the same manufacturer; b/c the beds are so lightweight & our rabbits have huge indoor enclosures, both buns are able to not only chew the beds but drag them/relocate them all over their pens. The grass fibers are thicker than expected & the chewing does not leave grass-mess all over the floors to clean up - they're suprisingly durable and hold up well.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

C2 Audit Mode can be configured through SQL Server Management Studio or with sp_configure. Selecting this option will configure the server to record both failed and successful attempts to access statements and objects. This information can help you profile system activity and track possible security policy violations.
Note: |
The C2 security standard has been superseded by Common Criteria. |
C2 Audit Mode data is saved in a file in the \MSSQL\Data
directory of default instances, and the \MSSQL$instancename\Data
directory of named instances. If the audit log file reaches its size limit of 200 megabytes (MB), SQL Server will create a new file, close the old file, and write all new audit records to the new file. This process will continue until the audit data directory fills up or auditing is turned off.
Important: |
C2 Audit Mode saves a large amount of event information to the log file, which can grow quickly. If the data directory in which logs are being saved runs out of space, SQL Server will shut itself down. If auditing is set to start automatically, you must either restart the instance with the -f flag (which bypasses auditing), or free up additional disk space for the audit log. |

Rick Gosselin's top Super Bowl moments; where do Cowboys rank?
9. Tom Brady's signature drive:
The Rams and their Greatest Show on Turf tied the upstart Patriots, 17-17, with 90 seconds left in the 2002 game. With an inexperienced quarterback, the ball at his own 17 and no timeouts, the assumption was that New England coach Bill Belichick would have the young Brady run out the clock and send the game into overtime. But Brady came out firing, completing five of eight passes for 53 yards, setting up Adam Vinatieri for a game-winning 48-yard field goal at the gun. A legend was born.

Ready to Die is the debut album of American rapper The Notorious B.I.G., released September 13, 1994 on Bad Boy Records. The first release on the label, it features production by record producer and Bad Boy founder Sean "Puffy" Combs, Easy Mo Bee, Chucky Thompson, DJ Premier, and Lord Finesse, among others. Recording sessions for the album took place during 1993 to 1994 at The Hit Factory and D&D Studios in New York City. The partly autobiographical album tells the story of the Notorious B.I.G.'s experiences as a young criminal. Ready to Die is his only studio album released during his lifetime; B.I.G. was murdered days prior to the release of his second album Life After Death (1997).
Ready to Die gained strong reviews on release and became a commercial success, reaching quadruple platinum sales. It was significant for revitalizing the East Coast hip hop scene, amid West Coast hip hop's commercial dominance.[1] The album's second single, "Big Poppa", was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Rap Solo Performance at the 1996 Grammy Awards. Ready to Die has been regarded by several music critics as one of the greatest hip-hop albums of all time. In 2003, the album was ranked number 133 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time, making it the fourth highest hip hop album on the list after Raising Hell, Late Registration and It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back. In 2006, Time included it on their list of the 100 greatest albums of all time.[2]
Background and recording[edit]
The album was recorded in New York City (mainly in The Hit Factory recording studio) in two stages between 1993 and 1994. In 1994, Biggie was only 21–22 years old when he recorded the album. Biggie was signed to the Uptown Records label by A&R Sean "Puffy" Combs in 1993. The following year Biggie started recording his debut album in New York, after having made numerous guest appearances on label mates' singles the previous year. The first tracks recorded include the album's darker, less radio-friendly content (including "Ready to Die," "Gimme the Loot" and "Things Done Changed"). In these sessions, XXL magazine describe an "inexperienced, higher-pitched" Biggie sounding "hungry and paranoid".[3]
When executive producer Sean "Puffy" Combs was fired from Uptown, Biggie's career hung in limbo, as the album was only partially completed. After a brief period dealing drugs in North Carolina, Biggie returned to the studio the following year on Combs' new Bad Boy Records label possessing "a smoother, more confident vocal tone" and completed the album. In this stage, the more commercial-sounding tracks of the album were recorded, including the album's singles. Between the two stages, XXL writes that Biggie moved from writing his lyrics in notebooks to freestyling them from memory.[3]
The album was released with a cover depicting an infant resembling the artist, though sporting an afro, which pertains to the album's concept of the artist's life from birth to his death. It has been listed as among the best album covers in hip hop.[4]
Lawsuit and sample removal[edit]
On March 24, 2006, Bridgeport Music and Westbound Records won a federal lawsuit against Bad Boy Records for copyright infringement, with a jury deciding that Combs and Bad Boy had illegally used samples for the production of the songs "Ready to Die", "Machine Gun Funk", and "Gimme the Loot".[5][6] The jury awarded $4.2 million in punitive and direct damages to the two plaintiffs, and federal judge Todd Campbell enacted an immediate sales ban on the album and tracks in question.[6] On appeal, the Sixth Circuit found the damages unconstitutionally high and in violation of due process and remanded the case, at which point Campbell reduced them by $2.8 million; however, the verdict was upheld.[7][8] All versions of the album released since the lawsuit are without the disputed samples.[9]
Although a fair use issue, Combs and Bad Boy never raised the legal concept of the fair use doctrine in their defense.[7] This decision was questioned by some legal experts: Anthony Falzone of the Fair Use Project at Stanford Law School criticized Combs and Bad Boy for not defending the legality of sampling and suggested that they might have refused to raise such a defense because they feared it could later imperil their control over their own music.[10]
The production on the album was mainly handled by Easy Mo Bee and The Hitmen. Cheo H. Coker of Rolling Stone depicted the beats as "heavy bottomed and slick, but B.I.G.'s rhymes are the showstoppers. The tracks only enhance them, whether it's the live bass driving a menacing undercurrent or [the] use of bluesy guitar and wah-wah feedback" and that the production is used to "push the rapper to new heights."[11] The production is mainly sample-based with the samples varying from the percussion of funk tracks to the vocals of hip hop songs. Steve Huey presented some criticism over the beats, stating that the "deliberate beats do get a little samey, but it hardly matters: this is Biggie's show".[12]
Lyrical themes[edit]
The Notorious B.I.G.'s lyrics on the album were generally praised by critics. Many critics applauded his story-telling ability such as Allmusic writer, Steve Huey, who stated "His raps are easy to understand, but his skills are hardly lacking — he has a loose, easy flow and a talent for piling multiple rhymes on top of one another in quick succession". He also went on to mention that his lyrics are "firmly rooted in reality, but play like [a] scene from a movie".[12] Touré, writing for The New York Times, referred to The Notorious B.I.G., proclaiming that he stood out from other rappers because "his lyrics mix autobiographical details about crime and violence with emotional honesty, telling how he felt while making a living as a drug dealer".[13] The album is also noted for its dark tone and sinister sense of depression.[12] In the original Rolling Stone review, Cheo H Coker declared that he "maintains a consistent level of tension by juxtaposing emotional highs and lows".[11] "Things Done Changed" was also one of the few hip hop songs in The Norton Anthology of African American Literature.[14]
The lyrics on Ready to Die tend to deal with violence, drug dealing, women, alcohol and marijuana use, and other elements of Notorious B.I.G.'s environment. He rapped about these topics in "clear, sparse terms, allowing the lyrics to hit the first time you hear them".[11] The album contains a loose concept starting out with an intro that details his birth, his early childhood, his adolescence and his life at the point of the album's release.[13] Songs on the album range from homicide narratives ("Warning") to braggadocios battle raps ("The What," "Unbelievable"). The final song was "Suicidal Thoughts", a song where The Notorious B.I.G. contemplates and finally commits suicide.
The album's lead single is a rags to riches narrative, with music that samples Mtume's 1982 song "Juicy Fruit".[15]

Three singles were released from the album: "Juicy", "Big Poppa", "One More Chance" and a promotional track: "Warning". According to XXL the more commercial sound of the singles compared to the rest of the album was a result of encouragement by Combs during the later recording sessions in which they were recorded.[3]
"Juicy" was released as the lead single on August 8, 1994. It peaked at number 27 on the Billboard Hot 100, number 14 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks and reached number 3 on the Hot Rap Singles.[16] It shipped 500,000 copies in the United States and the RIAA certified it Gold on November 8, 1994.[17] Produced by Combs, it features a prominent sample of "Juicy Fruit" as performed by James Mtume. Allmusic's Steve Huey stated that, along with the other singles, it was an "upbeat, commercial moment", calling it a "rags-to-riches chronicle".[12] Andrew Kameka, of HipHopDX.com, stated that the song was one of his "greatest and most-revealing songs" and went on to say it was a "Part-autobiography, part-declaration-of-success. It document[s] the star's transition from Brooklyn knucklehead to magazine cover story."[5] Producer Pete Rock, who was commissioned to remix the track, alleged that Puffy stole the idea for the original song's beat after hearing it from him during a visit. Rock explained this in an interview with Wax Poetics:[18]
I did the original version, didn't get credit for it. They came to my house, heard the beat going on the drum machine, it's the same story. You come downstairs at my crib, you hear music. He heard that shit and the next thing you know it comes out. They had me do a remix, but I tell people, and I will fight it to the end, that I did the original version of that. I'm not mad at anybody, I just want the correct credit.
"Big Poppa" was released as the second single on February 20, 1995 and like the previous single, it was a hit on multiple charts. It reached number six on the Billboard Hot 100, number four on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks and number one on Hot Rap Singles.[16] It sold over a million units and the RIAA certified it Platinum on May 23, 1995.[17] Featuring production by Combs and Chucky Thompson of The Hitmen, it samples "Between the Sheets" by The Isley Brothers. The song was nominated at the 1996 Grammy Awards for Best Rap Solo Performance, but lost to Coolio's "Gangsta's Paradise". Steve Huey named it an "overweight-lover anthem".[12]
"One More Chance" was released as the third single on June 9, 1995. The single was a remix of the album track. It was produced by Combs and featured a sample from DeBarge's "Stay With Me". It peaked at number two on the Billboard Hot 100 and reached number one on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks and Hot Rap Singles.[16] It sold over a million copies and the RIAA certified it Platinum on July 31, 1995.[17] Steve Huey labeled it a "graphic sex rap".[12] Rolling Stone writer Cheo H. Coker had a similar view of the song, noting that it was "one of the bawdiest sex raps since Kool G Rap's classic, "Talk Like Sex" and continued, stating it "proves hilarious simply because of B.I.G.'s Dolemitelike vulgarity."[11]

Upon its release, Ready to Die received critical acclaim from music critics. In his review for Rolling Stone, Cheo H. Cocker stated "Ready to Die is the strongest solo rap debut since Ice Cube's Amerikkka's Most Wanted. From the breathtakingly visual moments of his birth to his Cobainesque end in "Suicidal Thoughts," B.I.G. proves a captivating listen. It's difficult to get him out of your head once you sample what he has to offer".[11] Robert Christgau from The Village Voice commented "His sex raps are erotic, his jokes are funny, and his music makes the thug life sound scary rather than luxuriously laid back. When he considers suicide, I not only take him at his word, I actively hope he finds another way".[20] The New York Times wrote "Though drug dealing carries tremendous heroic value with some young urban dwellers, he sacrifices the figure's romantic potential. His raps acknowledge both the excitement of drug dealing and the stress caused by the threat from other dealers, robbers, the police and parents, sometimes one's own. In presenting the downside of that life, Ready to Die offers perhaps the most balanced and honest portrait of the dealer's life of any in hip-hop". Q magazine gave Ready to Die three out of five stars, and stated "the natural rapping, clever use of sound effects and acted dialogue, and concept element (from a baby being born at the start to the fading heartbeat at the end) set this well apart from the average gangsta bragging".[27] In their original review for Ready to Die, The Source gave it four-and-a-half out of five 'mics', stating "Big weaves tales like a cinematographer, each song is like another scene in his lifestyle. Overall, this package is complete: ridiculous beats, harmonizing honeys, ill sound effects, criminal scenarios, and familiar hooks".[24]
In retrospect, Ready to Die has been highly acclaimed. In 1998, The Source included it on their 100 Best Rap Albums of All Time list,[28] and in 2002, they re-rated it to the maximum five 'mics'.[29] Rolling Stone magazine has also given acclaim to Ready to Die over the years. In 2003, they ranked it number 133 on their 500 Greatest Albums of All Time list,[28] and one year later, they re-rated it to five stars.[23] In 2011, Rolling Stone also placed it at number eight on their 100 Best Albums of the Nineties list, and described it as "mapping out the sound of ''90's cool".[30] Kilian Murphy from Stylus Magazine wrote favorably of the album in a retrospective review, and concluded "Sweet, hypocritical, sensitive, violent, depressed and jubilant — these words could all fittingly describe Big at various points on Ready to Die.[25] Steve Huey from allmusic gave it five stars, stating "The album that reinvented East Coast rap for the gangsta age, Ready to Die made the Notorious B.I.G. a star. Today it's recognized as one of the greatest hardcore rap albums ever recorded, and that's mostly due to Biggie's skill as a storyteller".[15] In 2006, Time magazine included it on their 100 Greatest Albums of All Time list, and stated "On Ready to Die, Wallace took his street corner experiences and filtered them through his considerable charm. The result was a record that mixed long stretches of menace with romance and lots of humor. No rapper ever made multi-syllabic rhymes sound as smooth".[2]

I A HISTORICAL SKETCH OF THE LITCHFIELD VILLAGE IMPROVEMENT COMPANY A historical sketch of The Litchfield Village Improvement Company ( locally known as the V. I. S.) might either be general in its character or give an account of the work of the Company in detail. The latter would probably be most interesting to the act-ive members of the Company, but not to the public for whom this sketch is intended. It is nearly forty years since, at the suggestion of the late F. Ratchford Starr, " a few earnest and hope-ful citizens" met at the house of Geo. M. Woodruff and organized the Company, of which from that time until his death, the late J. Deming Perkins was the inspiration and chief worker, and which changed our Village from its former appearance of neglect and carelessness ( which it shared in common with most of the villages of that day) to its present beauty, in which it is excelled by none. Some thirty thousand dollars, provided by annual dues, special gifts, fairs, lectures, dramatic entertain-ments and the like, enjoyed by our citizens and visitors, have been expended in this work of improve-ment. A small matter as regards cost, but one mat-erially affecting the comfort of residents and visitors, has been that of street lighting. For some time pre-vious to the organization of our Company there was no systematic lighting. Two individuals first hung kerosene lanterns on the elm trees in front of their residences and this example was gradually followed until our principal streets were fairly well lighted at night. Then came our Company and took up the work and maintained lights in the central part of the . * - L 10 A HISTORICAL SKETCH village and along the walks in the parks, until the reorganized borough assumed this duty. The sidewalks of the village varied f r om good to bad according to the interest taken by the adjoining proprietors. The first asphalt walks were on the Mansion House ( now Phelps') corner and in front of t h e residence of the late John H. Hubbard; then a house- holder here and there- would have a like pave-ment laid, but the intervening spaces were still muddy in wet weather and dusty in dry, until the Improve-ment Company by urgent solicitation and by payment of a portion of the cost brought about the paving of a considerable part of the streets, which work the bor-ough brought to completion. In addition to the main roadways on North and South streets, there were well used paths between the sidewalks and the roadways, where people drove at their pleasure and which in t h e spring of the year were deeply plowed by the wheel tracks. Our Company succeeded in doing away with these and in having the space between roadways and sidewalks smoothly graded, sown to grass and the grass cut with lawn-mowers. The roadway on East Hill was considerably n o r t h of the middle of the highway, with unsightly gullies and rough banks on each side. We removed t h e roadway to its present location and had the sides evenly graded and grassed. On West street the road-ways on each side of the Park continued nearly to the foot of the hill. These we brought together and grad-ed the sides, making such an improvement as to cause t h e late John G. Holland, who was spending the sum-mer here, to write a magazine article in commendation of the work of the Company. There were no cross walks for passing f r om one side of the street to the other, except an occasional one 12 A HISTORICAL SKETCH 11 maintained by individuals. That from the Court House to the Jail corner was so especially bad t h a t in t h e spring of the year the mud was ankle deep. The Improvement Company caused stone crossings with stone bridges over the ditches to be laid with asphalt approaches at convenient distances. All the ground between the East and West parks had been given up to driveways in every direction, f r om which in summer clouds of dust were always drifting. The town had permitted the enclosure of a small space in the center, this however interfered so much with the play grounds of the boys t h a t the fence was twice torn down and burned. But under the influence of our Company public sentiment was so changed as to permit the ex-tension of the former East and West parks and the enclosing of a still larger space in the center which now has been made into a beautiful park, with a low curbing around it, which prevents its being driven over but does not in any way interfere with the outlook. For a long time the Company assumed the expense of street sprinkling and of having the crosswalks clean-ed every Sunday morning and on other necessary occasions, until relieved of this burden by the Town and Borough. When the triangle between the roads at the foot of South street was about to be used for purposes injuri-ous to the surroundings, it was secured for the Improvement Company through the exertions of the late Geo. P. Thompson and maintained as a Park un-til sold with such restrictions as would insure its re-maining an a t t r a c t i v e spot. Formerly empty cans and broken crockery were thrown into the ditches by the side of the roads with little regard for appearances. The Company pur-chased a t r a c t of about seven acres suitably located 12 A HISTORICAL SKETCH 11 for a " dump ground" free to the use of t h e village and to which it causes the rubbish collected from public places and private residences to be removed. The town clock which few would now wish to be silenced, was procured by the Company, the quarter- hour a t t a c h m e n t being the gift of the late Robbins Battell of Norwalk. Besides the work actually performed by the Improvement Company, it has by its influence and example helped to educate our people in a love for cleanliness and beauty as seen in the present attract-iveness of our streets and residences. There is a b u n d a n t opportunity for t h e work of the Company in maintaining and increasing this beauty and cleanliness, and the enthusiasm of its present officers and members is a n assurance t h a t this will not be neglected.

A Lemonade That's Naturally PinkNext time you're stuck with a huge seedless watermelon you know you'll never be able to finish, try this twist on lemonade. You puree the fruit in a food processor; strain out the pulp; and add lemon zest, water and a flavor boost made from honey and lemon juice. It's not as tart as traditional lemonade but just as refreshing (with nary a drop of red food dye).

Price Paid: 129.95 CAD
I purchased these at the start of winter 2010 and have been getting serious mileage out of them. I wore them straight out of the box and have never felt the slightest hint of a blister or hotspot.
Between commuting, snowshoeing, hiking and geocaching, they've kept me warm, dry and stable in slush, ice, snow, mud and deep puddles. The treads grip like crampons, I trudge up and down steep icy hills no problemo.
Bottom line: my feet have yet to be wet, cold or uncomfortable in these beauties.
The Merrell Thermo 6 is the hands down best hiking…
Use: from dayhikes to month expiditions.
Break-in Period: 1 hour or less
Price Paid: $109
The Merrell Thermo 6 is the hands down best hiking boot I've ever worn! The comfort is second to none. I spent a week looking all over town for my own pair after trying on a friend's. I ended up ordering from altrec.com.
After 4 hrs of hiking on my first time out with them my feet felt incredibly good. I brought my North Face slippers for around camp like I always do and found i didn't need them. I wore my Thermo 6's till it was time for bed.
I have owned several other Merrell boots and loved each of them for there comfort but the Thermo 6's are on a whole new level. I am going to buy another pair so that when I wear these out I won't be sad because I can't find them anymore, they're that great!
I have been camping/backpacking/hiking for almost 30 years and boots just don't get any better than this. they will keep your feet warm and dry on the most awful of days. The only reason for the 4.5 is that I don't give anything man-made a perfect score.

Use: hikinh
Break-in Period: 2 days
Price Paid: $110
I got these boots last year for Christmas - I loved the look of them when I saw them in the store but they didn't have my size, we later found them online. I haven't been hiking for long and I have only owned a few pairs of boots and shoes, but it is hard for me to imagine a better pair of boots.
I gave it 4.5 stars just because I haven't owned too many pairs.

Stephen Hunter
Soft Target (Simon & Schuster)
After seven Bob Lee Swagger and three Earl Swagger (Bob's father) thrillers, Stephen Hunter continues the lineage with Soft Target's Ray Cruz, Bob's long-lost son. But anyone expecting insight into the family lineage will be sorely disappointed. Instead, the story reads like an extended treatment for an action film. Cruz, an ex-Marine sniper, is holiday shopping at America, the Mall, when a team of Islamic terrorists, aided by a crazed employee of the mall's video-game shop, locks down the entire complex and takes thousands of hostages. As the scene unfolds, Maahir shoots Santa, Asad longs to deflower Western virgins, and "the imam" vows to punish the infidels. Asked why he's helping them, Andrew, the gamer, replies, "Because everybody hates you. That is so cool." At times like this, Hunter's 2003 Pulitzer for "intellectually rewarding" criticism (from his days as The Washington Post film critic) feels like a dim memory. After nearly a dozen Swagger-related books, Hunter could keep extending the franchise until Cruz is a grandfather, too. But I'm hoping he regains his own swagger and writes the truly great novel he's capable of producing.
Jennifer B. Bodine
Bodine's City: The Photography of A. Aubrey Bodine (Schiffer)
I never tire of Bodine's photography, and this collection—put together by his daughter, Jennifer—reflects his love of Baltimore better than any previous book. In frame after frame, Bodine captures not only the bustle of the city, but also the quiet dignity of its people. From Mt. Vernon in the snow and ships docked at the port to ironworkers and arabbers, Baltimore has never looked so good.

DEAR MIDLIFE BACHELOR: I'm a 42 year old single man with a heart of gold. I have had success with women throughout my life, but nothing that has ever lasted in terms of a long-term relationship. I'm looking for love, but I feel handicapped. About 6 months ago, I started having sexual performance issues so I started taking testosterone. While that has helped get me started, I have suddenly turned into a "two pump chump". It has gotten so bad that I don't feel that I could ever satisfy a woman sexually anymore. I am in a bad spot since a recent break up with someone I dated casually for a year. She knew my issues and seemed okay with it. When I started feeling deeper about her, she backed off and I lost her. She said she wasn't able to give me what I need. She has a healthy sex drive and needs more than I could possibly give now so she satisfies herself in other ways. I know that sex is only a part of a relationship, but to me it helps reinforce intimacy and closeness. With my lack of ability in this area, I feel like I will never be able to have that again and I'm entirely lost. I get caught up in my head thinking about her with others, and I lose my mind. Not angry towards her, mind you, but angry at my helplessness. I feel hopeless and alone. Any feedback would be appreciated. |
DEAR MIDLIFE BACHELOR:: I'm gonna try to be clear ;) This is my first forum for men, so here it goes. My guy, 49 year old business owner, mid level success; separated for 2 years now. His wife cheated on him after 8 years together (no children together, step fathered 2 boys currently 21 and 18). She ran off with boyfriend to a trailer park in Florida. She does not speak to my guy and has been sure that the boys cut off their relationship with him, as well. He mostly seems over her. He was trying to date before me and said that he wasn't meeting anyone he connected with until me. When we met, we could not stop talking to each other. Within 4 months I was having family holidays with his family, and he helped me open my own business. We live in a small town and EVERYONE knows us; so socially, it's a blast as well. He used to come to my house every weekend, now I go to his since he moved into a great little house. By our 3rd date, we were getting busy after a drunken evening. He was rock hard and stopped before much happened and said he just wasn't ready. Next day he said, "Sure, we could have had sex and I probably wouldn't call, but I don't want to >>> MORE - read the entire Question and Answer here |
DEAR MIDLIFE BACHELOR:: I have no luck online dating, and need some advice about dating guys in their 30s and 40s! Your website seems like the perfect place to garner advice, as I am newly single and have been dating men in this age range. As I live in a smallish town without many prospects, I've turned to online dating. And what a boost it was to have so many men emailing me! I had no lack of dates from online, and had tons of fun - but I have to say that my success rate in this age range has been absolutely zero. When I dated in my 20s, men always seemed to want me, and I took it for granted. But now, I'm not sure what's going on. I'm an attractive woman (long hair, slim and athletic, and everyone tells me I look like I'm 26, not 36), have no children or any other baggage, and have a good, sweet/fun personality, awesome job, etc. All of my dates >>> MORE - read the entire Question and Answer here |

Customer Reviews for Hyperflex by Henderson 13 Oz Polyolefin Shorts: See the top 20 most helpful scuba gear reviews
Average Customer Review: based on 3 reviews. Rating: Hyperflex Polyolefin shorts Reviewer: Jennifer L. S., - View all my reviews These shorts are great the way I use them - as a superlight insulating layer under my drysuit, for diving in cool (high 60s) water. The fit is a little odd around the waist, but perhaps thats because these are mens shorts. Did this Review help? No Yes 222 out of 445 people found this review helpful. Rating: Hyperflex Shorts by Henderson - 3x Reviewer: Lemar F., - View all my reviews Im a big guy (63", 245) and after trial and error Ive found that Hendersons sizing is pretty accurate. The 3X shorts fit well and perfomed in a pool and on a dive underneath a shorty. Did this Review help? No Yes 120 out of 237 people found this review helpful. Rating: SPF shorts Reviewer: Douglas & Mieko H., - View all my reviews These shorts are a bit long but are comfortable and will block the sun. I give them a 4 on the scale. Did this Review help? No Yes 329 out of 625 people found this review helpful.

Polyolefin Shorts
Sizes XS-3XL
Thermo Layering / Polyolefin STANDARD FEATURES:
Poly shorts are perfect for cold water sessions or for wearing under boardshorts. For cold water layering, poly shorts provide crucial warmth by insulating your seat and lower back while sitting in the lineup, which extends the length of you cold water sessions. Also great for rash prevention underneath nylon boardshorts.
Benefits of Polyolefin:
Moisture Wicking – Polyolefin material wicks moisture away from the skin more effectively than any other fiber. As a result, there is no evaporative cooling against the skin which allows the user to stay warm and dry.
Superior Insulation – Polyolefin has the highest insulating capacity of any fiber, natural or man-made.
Lightweight – Polyolefin is an extremely lightweight material. Warmth without excess bulk.
Durable – Polyolefin fabric is incredibly strong and is remarkably resistant to abrasion and tears. Color is locked into the fiber so this garment will not fade when exposed to sunlight, chlorine or perspiration.
No Odor Retention & Easy Care – Polyolefin is washable and virtually care free. Because Polyolefin is inert, the fabric does not support the growth of odor causing bacteria.

I was just asked by a client, if he could move his page created with and hosted at BC, to any other provider in case he decides he wants to change to another provider.
Can anyone help me find an answer?
Hi Ginoem50,
Please have a look at this article that will provide you all the necessary information on how to set up your site to use an external hosting service provider - http://kb.worldsecuresystems.com/157/bc_157.html?bc-partner
Hi Brad,
Yes that is correct. The article provided above is only when you want to change the hosting service provider (DNS service provider).
In order to use all the Business Catalyst features (e.g. eCommerce, Web Apps etc.) you have to have the site created and stored on our platform.
You can take the content of web pages, templates (because it's HTML, CSS etc.) however you cannot take the way it works with BC. It's the same thing as taking the furniture out of a house. You can take it but the house you can't

ReserveAge™ is devoted to the extension of youth - naturally.
Trans- Resveratrol: The secret to anti0-aging lies with trans-Resveratrol, the active polyphenol found in the skins, seeds, and stems of red wine grapes. Trans-Resveratrol remains active only when sheltered from the sun, light and oxygen. In this pure, ultra beneficial form, trans-Resveratrol has been proven in studies to activate the SIRT1 'longevity gene' and enhance cellular productivity. Trans-Resveratrol is found here and is available to you at its peak of potency.
With Reserveage, you can enjoy all the health benefits of red wine - without the adverse effects of alcohol!
Designated to Support and Help
Reserveage™ is committed to using only the finest organic grapes. Their unique patent-pending extraction process enables us to preserve the integrity of the essential phytonutrients found in grape skins. Their processing plant is only minutes away from the vineyards ensuring unsurpassed quality, purity and freshness.
Q: What are the benefits of using certified organic ingredients? A: The largest study ever of organic food was completed in 2007 and found that organic fruits and vegetables contain up to 40% more antioxidants than non-organic equivalents. Our supplements are made with freshly-harvested organic grapes, which help reverse the signs of aging, thus bringing back your skin's youthful glow. The ReserveAge organic base is further enriched with age-defying antioxidants, performance-oriented peptides, refining hydroxyl acids, essential vitamins and nutrients to achieve vibrant health.
Reserveage™ sources organic muscadine grapes directly from USDA-approved certified organic farms and their French grapes are grown in organic vineyards certified by Agriculture Biologique (AB).
As a dietary supplement, take 1-2 capsules daily. Product can be taken on an empty stomach, with food or as recommended by your healthcare practitioner.
