Too Stressed for Sex?
A Marriage Story
Men's libidos remain strong no matter how pressured they feel. Not so for women, whose sexual response is much more nuanced and complicated, it turns out. But skipping sex is not a healthy solution, warn social scientists, who have ideas about how to help.
Carolyn, 44, a married education professor at a university in Northern California, likes the idea of sex. She says it makes her feel attractive and she appreciates how it brings her closer to her husband, Jeffrey. But when it's 10:30 at night and he gives her those bedroom eyes, "I cringe inside," she says. "I feel bad, but having sex is often the last thing I want to do."
The problem, she says, is that the competing demands of her life -- a fast-paced career, an hour-long commute, two school-age kids with packed schedules of their own, hours of volunteer work in their classrooms -- take a steep toll on both her energy and her libido. Last year Carolyn started getting up at 4 a.m. to grade her students' papers, but she admits it's not a happy solution. "Now I'm tired and cranky as well as stressed -- especially at night. My brain must be going a million miles an hour, worrying about all the things I haven't gotten done, and I just can't shut it off," she says ruefully. "That's not exactly an aphrodisiac."
Jeffrey, 51, is sympathetic -- up to a point. He, too, has a stressful job (as a psychologist at a state mental hospital, where he often puts in 10-hour days), a long commute of his own, and never-ending projects on their fixer-upper house. None of that, however, puts a damper on his sex drive. "When I'm stressed, sex is what I want most, because it's completely relaxing," he says. "I could be outside in a snowstorm surrounded by a pack of hungry wolves and I'd still be in the mood. So it's hard for me to understand why she can't just let it go."
Carolyn and Jeffrey are a contemporary version of the Jack Sprats. They have incompatible appetites -- for sex. It's a problem that, by many accounts, has reached epidemic proportions across the country.
Low desire affects at least one partner in one of every three marriages, according to marriage therapist Michele Weiner Davis, author of The Sex-Starved Marriage: A Couple's Guide to Boosting Their Marriage Libido. "Research seems to suggest that about 20 percent of married couples have sex fewer than 10 times a year," she says. "There's no prescription for a healthy sex life, but I think it's safe to say that at that rate there's probably one unhappy spouse who wishes for more."

London Area Trooper and Officers Receive Highway Safety Awards
Date of News Release: 03/26/2013
(FRANKFORT, Ky.) The Kentucky State Police (KSP) honored nine members of the agency who went above and beyond the call of duty to make highways safer in the Commonwealth. The sixth annual "Excellence in Highway Safety" award ceremony was held at KSP Headquarters on March 26, 2013. The awards are based upon the highest number of occupant protection, speed, driving under the influence (DUI), commercial motor vehicle (CMV) citations written and educational programs presented during 2012.
KSP Commissioner Rodney Brewer presented the awards to four troopers, three officers and two civilian inspectors.
"I am proud of the troopers and officers who are being honored today and it extends beyond these nine individuals," says Brewer. "It"s really every unit we have that"s out there on our highways, or in our local communities, advocating for highway safety on a daily basis."
Three recipients were from the London Post and CVE Region area.
London-resident Sgt. Steve Walker is a 30-year veteran from the KSP London Post and received the Excellence in Highway Safety Award for DUI Enforcement. Walker removed dangerous drivers from the roadways by making 301 DUI arrests in 2012.
Somerset-resident Ofr. Travis Rogers is a 13-year veteran from the London Region and received the Excellence in Highway Safety Award for highest number of Commercial Motor Vehicle (CMV) citations. Ofr. Rogers wrote 892 CMV citations in 2012.
Barbourville-resident Ofr. Dennis Jackson is a 25-year veteran from the London Region and received the Excellence in Highway Safety Award for highest number of CMV safety inspections. Ofr. Jackson performed 1,174 CMV safety inspections in 2012.
Brewer thanked all the award recipients for their desire to save lives and make the Commonwealth safer for Kentuckians.
"We have a group of officers who go beyond what is normally expected of them and we want to show them how much we appreciate what they do. Their efforts have a direct impact on reducing deaths in Kentucky. They make a real contribution to keeping roadways safer throughout the state," he said.
Other 2012 award recipients included: Sr. Tpr. Nathan Clinkenbeard (Occupant Protection); Tpr. Jason Young (Speed); Insp. William Williams (Safety Inspections); Ofr. Christopher Duke (CMV Out of Service Rate); Insp. Wesley Garmon (CMV Out of Service Rate); and Tpr. Endre Samu (Community Education).
"The men and women who serve this agency every day by patrolling our roadways made an incredible impact in 2012. Statewide, KSP troopers and CVE officers wrote 89,784 speed citations, 44,979 seat belt/restraint citations, 28,242 CMV citations, made 8,694 DUI arrests and provided local communities with 504 educational programs pertaining to public safety. All of these officers are to be commended," added Brewer.
Citizens can contribute to highway safety by reporting erratic drivers to the Kentucky State Police toll-free at 1-800-222-5555. Callers will remain anonymous and should give a description of the vehicle, location, direction of travel and license number if possible.

On Tuesday evening amidst the bright lights of Piccadilly Circus a number of London Wasps greatest names were inducted into the London Wasps Hall of Fame. This year, five former players received the honour and joined eight other inductees on teh London Wasps role of honour in the second event of its kind.
Held at the Café Royal, the black tie dinner featured the current London Wasps Squad as well as some illustrious figures from London Wasps past. Presided over by former Wasps and England centre Damien Hopley; the evening started with a welcome from Bob Collier, Chairman of the Hall of Fame Committee.
The five former players inducted into the 2008 Hall of Fame were; Don Willis, Bill Treadwell, Rob Smith, Will Green and Paul Rendall "the Judge".
Don Willis
Don Willis, the evening's first inductee was still a schoolboy when he first arrived at Wasps, turning up at Sudbury to play for the club's Schools' XV. In the sixty three years and exactly nineteen days that have passed, there are not many positions within the club that Don has not held; No 8, open-side flanker, second row, a solitary game at prop way after he retired, president, fixture secretary, 1st XV touch judge, Quinquennial Dinner Chairman, tour manager, selector, skipper, vice skipper, Don has been the ultimate servant to the club.
Bill Treadwell
Joining the club during the Christmas Holidays in 1956, Bill turned up at Sudbury, went into the clubhouse and asked, "Any chance of a game?" Back then, there was always a chance! With 13 sides and180 players due a game, there would surely be at least one no-show. Over 50 years later, Bill is still running out for the club and country, armed with needle and thread, stitching-up faces, heads, bodies, gaping wounds of all shapes and sizes. Perhaps Bill's greatest contribution to Wasps came thirty years later, when the amateur game turned professional. He was the club president at that difficult time of transition and saw us become champions in that first professional season.
Rob Smith
Within the miles and miles of column inches written in national newspapers over the years about Wasps, our successes, trophies, players and coaches, one sentence summed up Rob Smith's contribution to the club "Rob Smith, a modest character with precious little to be modest about." After his playing days Rob joined the coaching staff in 1985 and has since had a direct influence on some of the greatest players to have played in the modern game. During 11 seasons of amateur rugby, the early days of the professional era and his current post as Academy Manager, he has help develop the likes of Danny Cipriani, James Haskell, Tom Rees, Dominic Waldouck, Hugo Ellis and before that Will Green, Joe Worsley, Lawrence Dallaglio, Andy Gomarsall, Alex King, Rob Andrew, Dean Ryan, Huw Davies, Mark Rigby, the list is almost endless.
Will Green
In Will's own words "I arrived in the amateur days and you were not only playing with Wasps, you were playing with your mates. First and foremost there is an honesty among friends and you don't necessarily get that at other clubs. And we carried that camaraderie, that spirit, on into the professional ranks. I am sure it's the same with the boys in today's squad and that's what makes Wasps so different, so special." That sentiment was certainly felt on Tuesday evening as player's old and new reminisced about past victories and looked forward to another challenging season in Wasps illustrious history.
Paul Rendall
The final inductee of the evening, Paul Rendall, was a stalwart of the 1980's side and picked up his Monica "The Judge"from Bill Beaumont, then England Captain on a tour of Australia. This was "bonding" 1980's style, presiding over Kangaroo Courts involving players, coaches, the management and the rugby Press. Paul made the position his own when he passed sentence on manager Geoff Cook and ordered him to eat a daffodil sandwich, all this before he received his first cap.
A fantastic night was had by all and thank you to those supporters who joined us and celebrated some of Wasps true greats. Details of the 2009 event will be availble shortly via www.wasps.co.uk.

Founded on the belief that equitable living conditions and social welfare are not merely by-products of market forces, governmental regulations, or social policy, but are integrally formed and affected by the discrete and particular constituents of a society, this project seeks to alleviate the pressures of density and negative perception of informal living settlements through a series of operations that celebrate it as an active social network capable of self-regeneration. It will target the revitalization of an existing slum in Mumbai's Back Bay, and serve as a pilot project for strategic dissemination throughout the city. A principle committee of local authorities, designers and planners, and non-profit organizations will oversee a multi-phase in situ slum upgrading in collaboration with local community groups.
Status: School Project
Location: Rahul Mahrotra Studio, Harvard Spring 2011

I caught a cold with a bad cough while on board that took almost 3 weeks to get over. Many others on-board acquired the same condition. I also developed conjunctivitis (the first time ever) and essentially quarantined myself for almost 3 days until the condition resolved. My wife got diarrhea with bad cramps during the cruise and was quarantined after visiting the clinic. The cramps continued for almost three weeks afterwards. Although hand sanitizers were provided at the entry to the restaurants there was no strict policing of their use and many people ignored them. We feel that this may have either led to or contributed to the health issues.
Our cabin also had a bad odor coming from the air vents at some point each day. We suspect it came from the restaurant although maybe not as the odor seemed like sewer gas.
The food on board was generally good (although the steaks in the main dining room were small and not top quality - maybe they reserve the best cuts for the Grill restaurant that you pay for) but we felt that the variety and quality was generally lacking in comparison to newer and larger RC ships we have been on. But for what we paid for the cruise we really can't complain about the food.
All in all not the best cruise we have ever taken.

Key Features
Based in Chile's northern-most city of Arica, students in the SIT Public Health, Traditional Medicine, and Community Empowerment program examine theoretical and existing approaches to healthcare delivery in diverse communities across Chile, including in urban and rural areas. Through interdisciplinary coursework, field study, and meaningful site visits to public health centers, students scrutinize both "modern" and traditional medicine practices and delivery methods.
Gaining global perspectives from Arica
From the program base in Arica, students enjoy excellent access to health centers and hospitals, learning from academics, practitioners, and community experts in both Arica and the greater region. Arica is home to a multitude of ethnic communities including Chinese, Afro-American, Italian, Spanish, and indigenous groups; students discover that, despite these communities' shared locality, extraordinary differences in culture and health practices exist.
Given Arica's strategic location on the border of Peru and Bolivia, students are able to examine healthcare from unique international perspectives. Students learn about cross-border initiatives and transnational coordination of health policy on topics such as infectious disease management, HIV/AIDS, and tuberculosis.
Exposure to multiple sources of knowledge
Students in the Chile: Public Health, Traditional Medicine, and Community Empowerment program learn from and engage with:
- Faculty members at the Universidad de Tarapacá
- Medical health professionals
- National and local government health officials
- Intercultural medicine practitioners including herbalists
- Local university students in both urban and rural settings
- Health centers where traditional medicine is practiced
Close interaction with academic, professional, and community experts allows students to develop a comprehensive, up-close understanding of health and community welfare in the Chilean context.
Public Health Research Methods and Ethics
Through the program's Public Health Research Methods and Ethics course, students receive instruction in research methods in both the social and health sciences. Students learn how to collect, analyze, integrate, and report social and public health data to understand and assess public health and intercultural issues. Field studies may include designing a research project; writing a research proposal; interviewing; conducting surveys; and maintaining a field journal.
Specific public health field study methods could include concepts and objectives of scientific research, basic techniques used in public health research, data collection and analysis, epidemiology and considerations in the Chilean context, ethical issues related to public health projects and research, and the World Learning/SIT Human Subjects Review Policy. Through this course, students frequently observe and participate in community health projects. The course also serves as an introduction to the Independent Study Project.
Independent Study Project
Conducted in Arica, Santiago, Valparaiso, Temuco, or other approved locations in Chile appropriate to the project, the Independent Study Project offers students the opportunity to conduct field research on a topic of their choice within the program's thematic parameters. The project integrates learning from the various components of the program and culminates in a final presentation and formal research paper. Students may choose to incorporate a guided practicum experience into the project as well. Sample topic areas include:
- Women's health
- Community outreach
- Drug and alcohol treatment
- Traditional and intercultural health
- Chilean health policy
- AIDS treatment promotion and prevention policies
- Indigenous health practices
- Epidemiology
Duration: 15 weeks

Awesome soap!
Awesome soap! Lasts much longer than other soaps, great lather, moisturizing and smells great.

heavenly bath soap
I absolutely love this soap! I had bought one to try it out and loved it so much I ended up buying 10 more so I wouldn't run out. Now it is my special soap for long luxurious baths, and my husband gets in trouble for stealing it from my bathtub. The scent is refreshing and invigorating as citrus can be, along with the sweet undertone of agave, reminds me of Hawaii or the tropics!
Intoxicating fragrance
My greatest fear is they will stop making what is now my favorite fragrance. I love the bar soap and the room spray. The soap is foamy and lasts a long time. When I smell the fragrance in the shower I want to linger awhile.
Agave Nectar Bar Soap
This is also a very refreshing scented soap that I have added to my collection of favorites.
Lasts Long & Doesn't Melt
Some bars of soap melt into mush when you get them too wet. I use this soap for my wet wool felting projects and it is still going strong. I have left it in water for hours, and scrubbed & scrubbed. It still is about the original size. It didn't crack into pieces or melt when I forgot it in water.

The Bills continued to re-shape their defense Wednesday, signing UFA DL Dwan Edwards. According to the Baltimore Sun, it's a four-year deal worth up to $18 million.
Edwards, 28, had spent his entire six-year career with the Ravens after being a second-round draft pick in 2004. Playing in all 16 games this past season and starting nine, the Oregon State product had 47 tackles and one sack, his most productive campaign to date.
As the Bills transition to a 3-4 scheme, the 6-3, 290-pound Edwards brings experience at defensive end in that alignment. This could give him an edge in the battle for a starting DE spot, as many of Buffalo's current defenders aren't well versed in the 3-4. Edwards joins ILB Andra Davis, signed by the Bills on Tuesday, as players who were part of a 3-4 last season.

DescriptionCarefully transport your wagon avoiding Robber Check!
Check Lay is a new type of chess game in which the player transports his wagon using rules from the original chess game.
The wicked robber Check and his gang appeared out of nowhere.
Continual mission failures are threatening our survival.
No failures are allowed anymore. You are the only one who can protect all of us.
With your unsurpassed strategies, get the gang and your meal!
How to play
1) Taking turns, the goal is to transport the wagon and reach the castle using the rules from chess.
2)The players' moving range can be known from their names.
(ex. Nancy pawn can move up 1 square ; just as the original pawn's moving range.)
3)Adrian wagon is the bait.
After the player activate his Adrian wagon, the player choose one of his subordinates to take charge of the wagon, and lure the enemies.
Adrian wagons are the only wagons that can go into enemy's territories.
If the Check gang comes to rob your Adrian wagon, they're probably laying itself open for attack.
(Using Adrian wagon: Click on wagon -> Click (ok) -> select one person in charge -> Use Adrian wagon)

Growing Tomato's with Plastic Mulch
I'm looking at growing some tomato's this year using plastic mulch. I was wondering if anyone has done this and what type of drip tape you use. I watched some youtube video's and they were using a drip tape with only 1 hole ever foot or so and were planting only where the drips were. I was wondering if all tape is this way or if I should look at some type of soaker hose. They were putting markers down on the ground where the drip was then laying plastic over it and going back and cutting holes on the markers. How often do you water? Guess that depends on the weather but I was wondering about how long the plastic holds moisture.
Re: Growing Tomato's with Plastic Mulch
No suggestions on what will work best, but in this area we have so much lime (calcium) in our water the drip systems and soaker hoses only last 1 to 2 years at most.

Re: Growing Tomato's with Plastic Mulch
I use grass mulch over a soaker hose. Drip lines should be ok. The water evens out well in a short time anyway. I used plastic one year and it worked fine but plastic I have to buy and I have plenty of grass and in the fall don't have to take it up, just till it in. If it is warm and dry I get about a week between watering, sometimes only five days. Depends on the humidity and wind too. Vern
Re: Growing Tomato's with Plastic Mulch
I did the black plastic two years ago with a soaker hose. Don't know if I watered them to much or the plastic keep the air from the roots. When I pulled my plants I had little or no roots. This year I'm trying news papers.

Re: Growing Tomato's with Plastic Mulch
we use wheat straw on ours. holds a lot of moisture, has few seeds, rots well and works real well for us. Our mater plants normally get 5'-8' tall. I use old welded wire for cages. (10 6" squares(5' in length) per cage) and they are normally bursting at the seams.
Re: Growing Tomato's with Plastic Mulch
We use 5-6 layers of newspaper covered with straw and grass clippings. Keeps the weeds down, moisture in and tills well in the fall for cover crop planting.

Re: Growing Tomato's with Plastic Mulch
Last year a neighbor gave me a lot of paper form their shredder they use on documents at work. I always put cages around my plants, and used a thick layer of the shredded paper in the cage where I could not get the tiller to control weeds. it worked great, and I am now saving my own shredded paper for this purpose. If you shred every document that has personal information on it, such as account numbers, insurance numbers, etc. all of which are useful to someone trying to hijack your identity it is amazing how much mulch you will generate in a year. if you pay with a debit card, many of the store receipts even have the last 4 digits of your cad number on them.
Another thing about drip or soaker irrigation, where it is run every day or two, is that the plants do not develop a very large root system. They only produce enough roots to bring in the needed moisture and nutrients. If watered everyday the roots stay right at the surface rather than going deeper following the moisture as it goes down. If you go on vacation you either need to have a timer setup, or have a neighbor run the water for you. If not, when you come back in a week the plants will be badly wilted or dead.

David Carr calls the idea that good watchdog media can be funded by the government "frankly preposterous."
Our media watchdogs require close watching. It's been an article of faith for Nation editors and readers since the founding of the magazine. I'm excited to join this tradition, and take it to new terrain at Media Fix, The Nation's first blog devoted to highlighting the best and worst of current media.
John Nichols addresses the question of whether we are living in an era of nitwits. He answers with a definite "No."
The Nation is adding an essential new voice to TheNation.com--Greg Mitchell, former editor of Editor & Publisher. Mitchell will be blogging as writer and editor of the new "Media Fix" blog, a snapshot of the best and worst each day in media and journalism.
Nonpartisan think tanks are supporting journalism--but who's supporting the think tanks?
Nation writers Robert McChesney and John Nichols support
government subsidies to sustain journalism in the future.
When the accusation (anti-Semitism) says more about the accuser (The New Republic) than the accused (Andrew Sullivan).
Authors of The Death and Life of American Journalism propose the government grant subsidies to ensure that democracy and a thriving press survive.

Your face is what makes you 'You', a unique combination of 21 muscles of facial expression that display your joy, sorrow, surprise and, unfortunately, age.

BMR Facial Toner uses natural, comfortable stimulation to enhance the natural beauty and youthful appearance of your face. A convenient applicator positions pads on either side of your face to target the facial nerves that control the facial expression muscles.

WASHINGTON (WVVA) - Sen. Joe Manchin will make stops at Marsh Fork Elementary and Concord Univeristy this week as he kicks off his 'Standing Up for the Next Generation' tour.
Manchin is scheduled to visit Marsh Fork on Friday at 9:30 a.m. where he will meet with students and teachers. A visit to the CU campus in Athens for a roundtable with administrators, faculty, students and veterans will follow at 3:30 p.m.
The local events will cap off a week of events across the state to highlight the need to focus on 'standing up for the next generation,' according to a press release from Manchin's office.
The release says the tour will highlight the importance of cutting out-of-control government spending but sustaining investments in the future, keeping our children safe in school, advancing research and technology and improving efforts to hire unemployed veterans.
"I've always said that government can do two things with your money: spend it or invest it," Manchin is quoted as saying. "The truth is, the federal government has been doing too much spending and not enough investing. As we learned when I was Governor, making smart investments is the best way to create good jobs and grow the economy both in our state and our nation."
"Our state has done the heavy lifting to build this nation into the great power that it is today, and no matter what, I will do everything in my power to make sure that our children will have more opportunities in this world than my generation," he added. "On this statewide tour, I look forward to meeting with West Virginia business leaders, labor organizers, education administrators, students and our brave veterans to begin working toward rebuilding a better America."
On Tuesday, Manchin is scheduled to join former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman as honorary co-chairs of 'No Labels,' a grassroots national organization. Senator Manchin and Governor Huntsman will host a press conference call for West Virginia reporters to discuss how they hope to bring Americans together.
Later that day, he will join business labor and community leaders for a roundtable economic discussion in Charleston.
On Wednesday, Manchin will be at Robert C. Byrd High School in Clarksburg for a school safety discussion.

The business at hand included adopting vision and mission statements, reviewing the business plan and budget, and hearing reports from the Electrical Skills and Rigging Skills Working Group chairs. Much of the work of the Council will be accomplished through its committees, which were approved and populated by the Council at this meeting. The initial committees are Appeals, Budget and Finance, Candidate Qualification, Disciplinary, Marketing and Fundraising, Provider Recognition and Test Administration.
The first priority for the Council is to raise the funding required to develop the Program. A considerable amount of discussion was devoted to developing a fundraising campaign which will be introduced shortly. Creating a high quality certification program will require the support and commitment of our entire industry and the Certification Council members are determined to lead the way.

Plans for hotel for funeral mourners dashed
10:00am Friday 5th October 2012 in News By Jon Austin
PLANS for a hotel to provide accommodation for mourners have been thwarted after a lengthy legal battle. The owners of the Gun Pub in London Road, Pitsea, wanted to develop a 20-room hotel on neighbouring land to provide rooms for people attending wakes at the premises and other visitors to the area. Basildon Council refused a planning application for the development on grounds it was inappropriate development in the green belt area. However, the pub challenged the decision by appealing to the Government's Planning Inspectorate. An inspector has now reached a decision and sided with the council, meaning it cannot go ahead unless the pub starts a costly High Court legal appeal. Owner Lynn Mohseni said: "I am very disappointed. Really this was for our customers. People often travel a long way to funerals and there is no accommodation near the cemetery and at that time people do not want the added hassle of having to find somewhere to stay or to be put up by relatives."

Force India Launch By Craig Styles
7:03pm Monday 13th February 2012 in Motoring Blogs By Craig Styles
A cold February morning at the Silverstone circuit in Northampton in anticipation for the revelling of the new Force India Formula 1 car the VMJ05.
The car was built under the direction of Technical Director Andrew Green.
As with all the Formula 1 teams down the pit lane they have built their new cars under the new 2012 FIA regulations, the major change that you will see on most of the new cars is the front nose section which has to be a maximum of 550mm high.
Blown exhaust diffusers are now banned this season but from what I have seen I think there will be a lot of clever parts used to get around the rules.
Paul di Resta had the pleasure of running the first laps in the car at Silverstone which all media was great full of some F1 V8 music at last.
Speaking to Martin Brundle he was surprised how well the first shakedown of the new car was going.
I'm pretty sure that the Force India Team will improve this year with Paul di Resta and Nico Hulkenberg giving other teams a run for their money, Mercedes engines and Kers and Gearbox supplied by McLaren - I wouldn't want more in any F1 team.

Canoeist Matthew Baird-Parker "loved" the water
The family of a kayaker who died after getting into difficulties in a swollen river have said he "loved" the water.
Matthew Baird-Parker was pulled from Arkle Beck at Reeth, North Yorkshire, on Sunday by firefighters but died later in hospital.
The 36-year-old, from Kidderminster, had become trapped in debris.
Mr Baird-Parker's father, Stephen, said his son had been "full of life" and praised the emergency services who had tried to save him.
"If there was a way you could wish to die then he would have wanted to die doing this. He was exceptionally good at it and it is all he wanted to do."

The Man with the Golden Gun is the ninth official James Bond movie and the second to star Roger Moore as British Secret Service agent Commander James Bond. The Man with the Golden Gun was made by EON Productions and released in 1974. The film was produced by Albert R. Broccoli and Harry Saltzman and was the final Bond film to be co-produced by Saltzman as his partnership with Broccoli dissolved after the film's release. Saltman's 50% stake in EON Productions parent company, Danjaq, LLC was then purchased by United Artists. The resulting legalities over the Bond property delayed production of the next Bond film, The Spy Who Loved Me for three years. The interval would be the longest break in the series until the six-year hiatus between Licence to Kill in 1989 and GoldenEye in 1995.
Plot summary
The film version's title character is Francisco Scaramanga, a high-priced assassin who charges $1 million per hit. He's known for using a golden gun and only needs one golden bullet per hit. Nothing is really known about Scaramanga in the beginning of the film except that he has a third nipple (information which Bond later uses to get in touch with Scaramanga's financer, Hai Fat); no pictures or physical descriptions of him exist.
The movie begins with a golden bullet, with "007" — Bond's codename — etched into its surface, being received by Her Majesty's Secret Service, the Secret Intelligence Service (MI-6). It is believed by Military Intelligence that Scaramanga has been hired to assassinate James Bond and has sent the bullet to intimidate his new target.
Bond's mission at this time revolves around the work of a scientist named Gibson, thought to be in possession of information crucial to solving the energy crisis by creating a virtually unlimited amount of energy using a new technique of harnessing the sun's power. Because of the perceived threat to the agent's life, M (Bond's 'control' officer in MI-6) removes James from his current mission, and forces 007 to go on leave until the matter is resolved.
Though officially "on leave" from his duties, Bond sets out to find Scaramanga before Scaramanga finds him. By retrieving a golden bullet used to assassinate another 'Double-0 agent' sometime previously, Agent 007 is led to the man responsible for supplying Scaramanga with his unusual golden ammunition. This leads Bond to Andrea Anders, Scaramanga's mistress. She confesses that it was she who sent the golden bullet to MI6 — to lure Bond to kill Scaramanga for her. Anders informs Bond as to where Scaramanga's plans will require him to be.
Unbeknownst to Bond, that location is that of Scaramanga's next 'hit', the target of which is Gibson, the solar energy scientist from Bond's previous mission. The hit takes place in order to steal the "solex agitator" — a critical component of Gibson's solar energy device. It is now Bond's mission to retrieve the solex agitator and duel it out with Scaramanga before Scaramanga can sell the device to the highest criminal bidder or use it for his own nefarious plans.
Cast & Characters
This is the first of three movies to feature Maud Adams. In 1983 she plays a different character, Octopussy, in the film of the same name. She would later have a cameo in the Bond movie A View to a Kill. This is also the second movie with Clifton James playing the role of Sheriff J.W. Pepper. He first appeared in Live and Let Die.

Vehicles & gadgets
Main articles: List of James Bond vehicles and List of James Bond gadgets
- AMC Hornet Sportabout 'hatchback' — Bond steals this car in Bangkok, Thailand, unknowing that Sheriff J.W. Pepper is in it, planning to test drive it (an example of product placement), as AMC cars were never sold in Thailand, which drives on the left). LHD AMC cars were also used for the cop's cars, and by Scaramanga. A great stunt in the film takes place using the UNIVAC computer-calculated 'Calspan Spiral', permitting a fantastic feat of automotive acrobatics, until that time considered physically impossible. Unfortunately the professionalism of that stunt was ruined in the final film by usage of an incredibly comedic slide-whistle sound effect.
- Car Plane — During a car chase, Scaramanga's AMC Matador 'X' disappears in a shed for some time. When it emerges it has wings attached, allowing it to fly away. The vehicle is an extrapolation of the last of the Taylor Aerocars, then undergoing experimentation in the USA.
- The Golden Gun — Scaramanga's weapon of choice, it could fire a 4.2 caliber golden bullet specially made for the gun. The gun contained only a single round, which was sufficient for Scaramanga given his legendary marksmanship. The gun also separated into a gold cigarette lighter, a gold cigarette case, a gold cuff link, and a gold pen so as to avoid detection.
Film Locations
One of the more interesting locations is the use of a derelict cruise liner, the RMS Queen Elizabeth, as a top-secret MI6 base in Hong Kong harbor.

- The film references the then-recent 1973 energy crisis. Britain had not yet fully overcome the crisis when the film was released.
- Christopher Lee, Ian Fleming's cousin, was Fleming's choice for the role of Dr. Julius No in the film Dr. No. According to Bond film historians, Lee also was considered for the role of James Bond.
- The Bottoms Up Club (the bar where Gibson, the man who created the Solex meets Lt. Hip, MI6's main agent in Hong Kong) is actually a real bar that's still open today. It even has a notice on it's sign that it was featured in the movie.
- In the video game GoldenEye (video game), and subsequent James Bond games (including Agent Under Fire, Nightfire, and GoldenEye: Rogue Agent), the Golden Gun counts as an instant kill, reflecting that the villain Francisco Scaramanga never missed.
- This film was criticised that, in addition to production faults, it is the most sexist story in the series, with James Bond's assistant, Mary Goodnight, a stereotypical blonde buffoon who is nearly useless to him. On the other hand, when Bond is fleeing an enemy dojo, chased by martial artists, he offers to protect two girls who were being menaced by them, only to have them demonstrate their superior fighting skill by easily thrashing Bond's pursuers.
- Although her performance in the film is undistinguished, Mary Goodnight is a recurring character in several Fleming Bond novels, even appearing in lieu of Miss Moneypenny; in the novels, Goodnight is Bond's secretary.
- Broccoli and Saltzman originally intended The Man with the Golden Gun as the film to follow You Only Live Twice, in 1969, but production was cancelled, because it was to have been filmed in Cambodia, and the outbreak of war in the region made filming impractical. Roger Moore was invited to be Bond in the 1969 version.
- The cork-screwing car jump was proposed several years before. The producers took out copyrights and patents on the stunt in order to prevent it being used before they could integrate to a James Bond film; the jump was planned using computer modelling.
- The scenes featuring the island hideout of Scaramanga were filmed in Phang Nga province in Thailand, north of the city of Phuket. One of the islands seen in the film is known as the "Nail" island (or Ko Khao Tapoo) — in the film, this island houses the solar panels. Scaramanga's hideout is actually Ko Kow-Phing-Khan — both islands are now tourists attractions. The "nail" island seen in the film is known by locals as James Bond Island in all tourist literature. The site was extremely hard hit by a tsunami following the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake.
- Marc Lawrence, who plays a gangster called Rodney who was shot dead by Scaramanga at the start of the film, played a similar character in Diamonds Are Forever, although this film does not indicate whether Lawrence is playing the same character.
- The title sequence features the dancing of Carolyn Cheshire, later to be a renowned bodybuilder.
- While filming, Roger Moore used to tease Christopher Lee about his role in Dracula.
- Also, one time when they were filming on the island, Christopher Lee accidentally went into a cave and startled a swarm of bats that flew out of the cave.

This is a simply spectacular route. A 3rd class slab leads directly to the roof. 15' or slightly more of sinker horizontal hand jamming (assuming average sized men's hands) lead to desperate super tight hands jamming around the lip. Once above the lip a tricky though not terribly difficult move or two and a last thin piece of gear are best dispatched before the pump clock catches up with you! Best led with one rope - clip your first piece or two with slings and don't blow it. At the lip place a piece or two and fire around the corner. Once established above the roof make sure to route the rope through a little groove/slot approximately 6" left of the crack - this will prevent your gear from walking deep into the crack (cams are fixed on this route reasonably frequently) or the rope from hanging on a cam before you get to the anchor.
A couple of hand sized pieces, one each 1-2" and a selection of thin pieces for the last placement or two. Bolted belay/rappel.

[size=18px]Vikings: Attorneys request dismissal of cruise charges[/size]
Last update: April 22, 2006 – 7:41 AM
At a pretrial hearing Friday, attorneys for Minnesota Vikings Fred Smoot and Bryant McKinnie discussed motions to dismiss charges against the players stemming from a cruise on Lake Minnetonka in October.
They have been charged with misdemeanor disorderly conduct, indecent conduct, and lewd and lascivious behavior. Smoot has been charged with using sex toys, and McKinnie is accused of performing oral sex in front of crew members.
Joseph Tamburino, Mc- Kinnie's attorney, said in his motion that the player was singled out for charges because he's a member of the Vikings. Prosecutor Steven Tallen said it was the first time that he had heard that being a member of a professional team is a protected class.
Tamburino's motion also questioned the vagueness of the indecent conduct statute and said that McKinnie's actions on the boat didn't meet the level of lewd and lascivious conduct because it was between consenting adults who had no reason to believe it was illegal.
Smoot's attorney, David Valentini, raised similar issues about the statutes in his motion. He added an additional issue: Whatever happened on the boat should be considered to have been done in private since the party was not for the public.
Former Vikings running back Moe Williams was convicted of disorderly conduct related to the cruise. Similar charges were dismissed against former quarterback Daunte Culpepper.
Hennepin County District Judge Robert Lynn is expected to rule in three weeks.

We has spent a week travelling in Puerto Rico beforehand and as a result we drove in to San Juan that day, arriving at the dock about 5pm. This meant that most of whatever check in "crush" had long since subsided, and we were on the ship in about 10 minutes-a great first impression. (Apparently we could have checked in as late as 9 pm, and that sort of flexibility is a great advantage it seems to me.)
First impressions of the ship were good-relatively new and well maintained. We had booked a balcony cabin for the first time in our cruising lives and were looking forward to that experience. Unfortunately a disappointment was soon encountered, as a number of adjacent cabins housed smokers (including cigar smokers). While sailing out of port and on numerous subsequent occasions during the cruise we (non smokers) were driven indoors in order to escape the fumes. As first time balcony cruisers we never even thought about the possibility of this being an issue, but we will next time. Hopefully if there is a next time on Princess they will have figured out how to separate the smokers and non smokers into port/starboard balcony cabins to ensure as much as possible that neither intrudes on the other in this respect.
Nothing else remarkable to say about the stateroom-cozy, but well equipped (the fridge is a nice touch even if it only kept things cool rather than cold).
Other facilities we enjoyed included the fitness room- well equipped, but can they please put up a sign saying that the treadmills won't get turned on until 8 am due to possibly disturbing sleeping passengers?
Other reviews have mentioned that the ship seems too big. This was the largest ship we had ever been on by a wide margin, and we liked the size-not only because the walking from one end to the other and up and down the stairs tended to help exercise off the big meals, but also because it was too large to get bored of by the 7th day of the cruise.
Speaking of food, we felt that it was a cut above most of the other cruises we had been on (admittedly, we have not been on Celebrity and some of the other lines well known for their food quality). In particular, the buffet restaurants seemed to have better selection, ambiance and quality than the other cruises we have been on. We splurged for Sabbatini's, the Italian specialty restaurant the last night and it was worth the extra cover charge for one evening. We also enjoyed the pizza counter on the pool deck.
Service was excellent throughout the ship. Our cabin steward was particularly good-very engaging and eager to please.
Entertainment was a disappointment I'm afraid. We went to most of the big "shows" in the theatre and in our opinion, if you didn't see any of them you wouldn't have missed much. I think my (now deceased) parents might have liked the lounge/cabaret entertainers (i.e. fairly sedate), but I missed not having a venue on the ship where my wife and I could dance to a band that played the baby boomer music of the 60's to 80's that we grew up with. (We thought this was a "staple" based on other cruises we have been on). We did like the theater under the stars concept however.
Our choice of cruises and cruise lines is largely dictated by the selection of ports. Of the 6 ports on this cruise 4 were ports we had never visited, and all of the ports were well worth a visit. Further details are in the Port Reviews section of this review.
Disembarkation was also a breeze- 10 minutes and off the ship-we barely had time for breakfast.
On balance this was a very enjoyable cruise. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to friends and we will certainly consider using Princess in future for cruising.

We purchased the Amsterdam 4 piece luggage set for our recent trip to Germany. The appearance is just as nice as much higher priced items. I was especially pleased by the way this luggage held up through 3 airports in the US and 2 in Germany (both leaving and coming home) it still looks as good as the day we bought it. This includes being lost (isn't everyone's luggage these days?) and a hurried trip from Philadelphia , where it stayed while we left , to a small village outside of Bamberg Germany. I'm very pleased!
We travel often, this set gives us many choices on sizes. Great for big trips when you need larger luggage and wonderful for short weekends. The sizes are great. The quality of this lugage is ever bit as good as much more expensive luggage that we have purchased in the past. Great deal for the buck. You don't mind spending this kind of money of luggage. this luggage will roll through any airport just as easy as more expensive. I would highly recommend this to anyone that travels.
Unlike most people that have reviewd this luggage set, I actually waited for 10 months...and 8 - 12 trips...to submit my review. What can I say about this luggage now? I was excited when I bought this set. It looked great, sounded like a great buy and thought that I couldn't go wrong. Here is what happened: The large piece lasted about 4 trips before the handle broke. Very cheap plastic handles not made to handle the weight. The middle piece lasted about 6 trips and now all of the zippers are broke and there are two big rips in the nylon on the front of the bag. The middle piece is still in great condition. We use it for light trips (15 pounds of clothes and supplies) and usually use it as a carry on or for trips that we make in the car. This piece is what the quality of this luggage is suitable for, not the larger pieces. Do yourself a favor and spend the extra money to get sturdier pieces. Oherwise you will be disappointed.
I read the others reviews before purchasing this set of luggage, and I admit I was apprehensive in doing so due to the comments about durability. I made the decision to purchase the luggage, and I am pretty happy with it so for. I used to take 2 suitcases when going on a 2 week business trip, now only need to take one. However, with that convenience means you�re likely to pay extra charges at the airport because that one suitcase may now weigh more than 50lbs, and they�ll charge you for the extra weight. I guess I'm lucky because nothing broke or ended up damaged from my first two trips (unlike what others have written). What people really need to consider is that while luggage should indeed be made durable, the folks at the airport do not care one bit about your luggage or how much you paid for it, and will handle it quite roughly... you WILL incur some damage with your luggage over the course of a few trips no matter how much you paid for it. As an experienced traveler, you simply learn to accept that. I think the only exception to experiencing damage to luggage is if you use the Samsonite hard suitcases, but with a set like that comes a very hefty price tag. For the traveler who only makes a few trips a year, this set of luggage will do just fine.
I looked for luggage for quite awhile and I am known by my friends as a great shopper. I looked at all the major department stores, discount houses and outlets before buying this set. This set was better than all the sets I looked at for $50-$100 more. It has pockets for shoes and a small net zipper compartment on the lid. What it didn't say in the ad, but I was delighted to see, was the adjustable straps to hold the clothes while in transit. I received the set on the date promised. This is the first time I shopped on Overstock. com, but it definately won't be the last!
I purchased the Travel Select by Traveler's Choice Amsterdam 4-piece Luggage Set last year as a second set of luggage for our Alaskan trip. I knew it wasn't a top of the line product but I expected to be able to use it for at least 3-5 years. My other full set of luggage was an off-brand purchased from JCPenney's in 1997 which has been used for multiple trips (air, train, cruise and car) each of the last 17 years. The second time I used the set, the handle on the smallest roller bag broke. It is not repairable or replaceable. I thought maybe the bellman had abused it, so I did not report it. This week we were on a two week road trip. The fourth time we used the set, the handle on the largest piece broke when my 67 year old husband started to lift it onto a luggage rack in our hotel room. Three days later the telescope handle on the same piece would not extend. We unzipped the interior lining and were unable to determine a reason or get it to work again. Now after only 4 uses, 2 of the 3 pieces ever used are trash. DO NOT PURCHASE UNLESS YOU WANT ONLY INTEND TO USE LESS THAN A HANDFUL OF TIMES.
We only used this luggage once. The expanders on the luggage ripped. We are now unable to use the extra space that this luggage provided. We purchased the luggage because of the capacity possibilities. The luggage was not over packed. The expander was not thick or sturdy enough. If you need that extra space do not buy this set. For the most part the other features are still in tack but remember we have only used it once.
I ordered this set for my mom when she flew to Colorado. It's a nice set for the price but there wasn't any zip compartments on the sides of the inside of the luggage just inside of the top.
I was really excited to purchase this luggage from overstock because I thought it was going to be a good quality product. The first time i used it, it the small carryon bag ripped at the seem closest to the zipper and the second to largest bag ripped in a similar area. I am very disappointed and will never purchase luggage from this site again. I no longer trust their products considering I received such low quality. I will be calling to return this. Don't get it save your self the embarrassment of traveling with a ripped bag and time from returning it via mail.
One of the 4 pieces arrived defective. The retractable handle wouldn't. They haven on online customer service. First and only trip, the plastic side inserts broke on two of the 3 pieces used. Don't waste your money on these cases.

A head on collision has left two women dead.
At around 8:00 pm, Massachusetts State Police responded to a crash between Exits 5 and 6 on 95 South in North Attleboro where two cars had collided head on.
Investigators believe that Patricia M. Devore, 72, of Auburndale MA, was driving on 95 north when she crossed the center median and struck Nicole L. Geddry who was traveling southbound. Devore was pronounced dead at the scene. Geddry, 36, of Norwood MA was sent to Sturdy Memorial with serious injuries; she was later pronounced dead.
Two lanes were shut down, leaving traffic backed up for miles.
It is still not clear what caused Devore to cross the center median.
