text: Our Cockapoo puppy is 3 mos. old. She wants to dig up the grass with her paws and also pulls it up with her mouth. Also, she thinks I'm a large chew toy. How can I stop her from doing this? We love her so much but don't want her chewing on other people. Is it normal for a cockapoo to dig like she does?

Great digestive aide.
I have been using this product for almost 20 yrs. I chew 3 to 4 tablets after my bigger meals ( lunch and dinner). I carry some in my purse at all times to use when Im out with friends or business associates. I honestly have to say that papaya is great after even the heaviest of meals or snacks. Plus it tastes great!

Natural Tropical Papaya
I like Natural Tropical Papaya very much. I usually use a more potent blend of enzymes when I eat a full meal. But I use these when I eat a light snack. They taste delicious and since they are chewable they are easy to take when I am eating a snack on the go or in the car.
√ I would recommend this item to a friend.

Excellent product
I have been ordering Natural Tropical Papaya for years and to be honest Natural Tropical Papaya is for my rabbit. Rabbits love papaya and it has many health benefits for their digestive system. My son also uses Natural Tropical Papaya. The taste of the tablets is very fruity and pleasant. I would highly recommend Natural Tropical Papaya.

My name is Michelle LaMark, and I will graduate from the Herzing University Master of Business Administration program in August of 2010. I first began my journey at Herzing in May of 2006, and it's been one of the greatest experiences of my life. Herzing University helped me to not only meet great people, acquire not one but two jobs, and earn an Associate of Science degree in Legal Studies and a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration within two years.
Herzing has also given me a second family. I also feel that I have grown as a person through my educational experience at this school. I'm not aimless anymore; I have purpose now. I will always be grateful to the wonderful Herzing staff, faculty, and the organization itself, for my achievements.

U.S. News Ranks Herzing University #1 Online Program in Wisconsin
MADISON, WI (February 13, 2013) – U.S. News & World Report recently published its ranking of online education programs, and Herzing University was the highest-ranking Wisconsin-based online education program for Best Online Bachelors Programs. Herzing was ranked 80th in the country, followed by UW – Platteville at #85, UW – Milwaukee at #123, UW – Superior at #148 and UW – Green Bay's ranking was not published.
The U.S. News ranking was comprised of Faculty Credentials & Training, Student Services & Technology and Student Engagement scores. Only degree-granting programs offering courses that are 100 percent online were considered for the rankings.
"We are gratified to be recognized once again for the quality of our online bachelor's degree programs," said Renée Herzing, president of Herzing University. "The majority of our students are working adults, and we strive to provide them with the best possible educational experience while supporting their efforts to balance work, family and education priorities."
Herzing University Online offers a wide range of master's, bachelor's and associate degrees, as well as diploma and continuing education courses and certifications. Students are able to take all of their courses online, depending on their program, or they may choose a hybrid approach with some courses online and some in the classroom at one of 12 Herzing University locations across the United States.

A real opportunity to make a major difference in the lives of others.
Physical therapist assistants (PTAs) work as part of a team to provide physical therapy services under the direction and supervision of the physical therapist. PTAs implement selected components of patient/client interventions (treatment), obtain data related to the interventions provided, and make modifications in selected interventions either to progress the patient/client as directed by the physical therapist or to ensure patient/client safety and comfort.
#15 Best Job in America according to U.S. News & World Report's survey for 2013!
PTAs assist the physical therapist in the treatment of individuals of all ages, from newborns to the very oldest, who have medical problems or other health-related conditions that limit their abilities to move and perform functional activities in their daily lives. PTAs provide care for people in a variety of settings, including hospitals, private practices, outpatient clinics, home health agencies, schools, sports and fitness facilities, work settings, and nursing homes. PTAs must graduate from a CAPTE-accredited PTA program and licensure or certification is required in most states in which a PTA works.

A High-demand Occupation
As the large baby-boomer generation enters the prime age for heart attacks, strokes and broken bones, the need for these professionals will expand.
Advancement Opportunities
Many physical therapist assistants advance to administration positions. These positions might include managing all the assistants in a large physical therapy organization or acting as the director for a specific department such as sports medicine. Experienced assistants can also go on to teach in an accredited academic program, lead health risk reduction classes for the elderly, or organize community-run fitness and risk reduction activity programs.
Opportunities are best for physical therapist assistants who hold an associate degree and are licensed.
Physical therapist assistants need a moderate degree of strength because of the physical exertion required in assisting patients with their treatment. Frequent kneeling, stooping, and standing for long periods also are part of the job. The hours and days that physical therapist assistants work vary, but many work evenings and weekends to accommodate their patients' schedules.
A career as a physical therapist assistant could be right for you, if you:
- Have the interpersonal skills needed to work with those who require encouragement as well as instruction
- Have the strength and agility required to work with physically disabled patients
- Can clearly communicate and demonstrate specific instructions and directions
- Have a desire to help people in need

Tessellated Pavement
A tessellated pavement is a rare erosional feature formed in flat sedimentary rock formations lying on some ocean shores. The pavement bears this name because the rock has fractured into polygonal blocks that resemble tiles, or tessellations. The cracks (or joints) were formed when the rock fractured through the action of stress on the Earth's crust and subsequently were modified by sand and wave action.
A characteristic example of this formation may be found at Eaglehawk Neck on the Tasman Peninsula of Tasmania. This example consists of two types of formations: a pan formation and a loaf formation.
The pan formation is a series of concave depressions in the rock that typically forms beyond the edge of the seashore. This part of the pavement dries out more at low tide than the portion abutting the seashore, allowing salt crystals to develop further; the surface of the "pans" therefore erodes more quickly than the joints, resulting in increasing concavity.
The loaf formations occur on the parts of the pavement closer to the seashore, which are immersed in water for longer periods of time. These parts of the pavement do not dry out so much, reducing the level of salt crystallisation. Water, carrying abrasive sand, is typically channeled through the joints, causing them to erode faster than the rest of the pavement, leaving loaf-like structures protruding.

SHERMAN, CT -- (Marketwired) -- 06/20/13 -- A potent cocktail of contradictory forces is driving change in the European corporate travel space -- along with intense competition for market share, according to a new PhoCusWright report (www.phocuswright.com/products/4253). Against a backdrop of ongoing corporate austerity measures, empowered travelers and new technology solutions, suppliers and intermediaries are at cross purposes as they vie for a piece of the managed travel market.
"Suppliers are beefing up their services and incentives in an effort to drive direct business with corporate customers and rein in their distribution costs," said Norm Rose, senior technology and corporate market analyst with PhoCusWright. "At the same time, GDSs are pushing in the other direction, aggregating content in a play to provide a single, unified booking environment for all travel products."
Modest growth is projected for Europe's managed corporate travel market, with gains in the 2-4% range through 2014, when gross bookings will exceed EUR 41 billion. However, double-digit growth in online bookings will continue to fuel share shift in the managed travel marketplace. Half of all managed travel will be booked online by 2014, up from 37% in 2010.
"PhoCusWright's European Managed Travel Distribution: Market Sizing and Trends" provides a comprehensive analysis of the European corporate travel marketplace. The report includes market sizing and forecasts through 2014 and identifies the corporate travel and technology trends that are transforming the managed travel landscape.
Topics include:
•Managed corporate travel market sizing (with projections through 2014), including share of the total European travel •Sizing and analysis for France, Germany, Italy and the U.K. •Online penetration and the use of online booking tools in the corporate travel marketplace •Intermediary versus supplier-direct bookings, with projections through 2014 •Corporate travel spend across key expense categories -- air, hotel, car rental and rail •Key European corporate travel and technology trends, including: trip optimization, the role of procurement, responses to the consumerization of corporate travel, the rise of the end-to-end solution, social media, data analytics and mobile

We manufacture in house Hot foil magnesium blocks / Hot foil dies, Letterpress Blocks, Debossing dies and Embossing sets.
Metallic Elephant provide - Highest quality dies / Same Day turnaround / Competitive pricing / Excellent Customer Service
1/4" 6.35mm
5g 5mm
8g 4mm
16g 1.63mm
The thickness relates to the size prior to etching, please note with some machines it is not possible to use the thinnest metals eg 16g and 8g due to lack of depth - please get in touch if you would like advice.
The thickest of the gauges and best suited to the beginner. The advantage of the thicker plate is it does not bend when removed so it is also ideal for repeat use. This gauge can also be deeper etched than any of the others so is suitable for soft materials such as leather.
This metal is used when you are also using 5g copper plates ie a diary manufacture who has etched dates but wants to have different logos.
Our most popular magnesium die, being 4mm thick it is still possible to etch quite deep and can be handled by most novices also the added advantage of being cheaper than 1/4"!
This is the thinnest of our magnesium dies, and can bend very easily. Being only 1.63mm thick this metal can not be etched deepily. This is a very popular gauge with rosette makers as it is inexpensive and suitable for one off foiling jobs.
If you require any advice on gauges please get in touch.
We also supply counterforces for embossing

The Origami was designed for busy mums in mind and provides great functionality. The 2 step folding function means that the pushchair will only fold when you need it to and the safety sensor ensures that it doesn't fold whilst your child is still seated.
Safety features include the daytime running lights and the reflective piping help increase you and your child's visibility. Underneath, the additional pathway lights turn on automatically in low light conditions enabling you to see in hard to navigate areas. Powered by the generators in the rear wheels, the pushchair charges itself as you walk along and what's more, you can also charge your phone when on the go.
Keep track of power levels with the LCD dashboard, which also includes a thermometer, speedometer and trip and lifetime odometers, so you can keep check of the distances travelled.
Little ones are in for a comfortable trip thanks to the round seat that reclines and the 4 wheel suspension is sure to provide a super-smooth ride.

Havens is famous for their Merlot, which was my introduction to their wine. When I came across their Syrah the other day, I decided to give it a try. This syrah, like the Merlot I first drank has a subdued and earthy complexity, which is due, I think, partially to the Carneros fruit that winemaker Michael Havens selects for his wines, but also I am beginning to suspect, to his vision for his wines. I look forward to trying the 2001 vintages of both his Merlot and this Syrah, as I suspect they will reflect the superiority of that harvest -- while competently made and pleasurable, this Syrah, like the 2000 Merlot are not quite as stellar as they could be. However, Havens' commitment to pricing their wines reasonably means that I can easily recommend their wines, including this one, as very good values for the money.
Tasting Notes:
Blood red in the glass (lighter than many California Syrahs) the wine opens with aromas of black licorice, french roast coffee, prunes and a slight hint of chocolate. When the wine first enters the mouth it delivers a burst of spiciness and acitdity up front, causing a surprising tingling on the toungue. This is followed by subdued and dark flavors of plum and black cherry with big tannins in the first pour, mellowing over an hour that it was open. For some this wine will be a refreshing change from the California fruit-bombs that mark much of the Syrah production these days. The wine tastes more European in style, and will probably age well, as it has a lot of oak on it (frankly, more than I think it needs).
Food Pairing:
I like to drink Syrah with game of all sorts, from rabbit to venison. But really, who wouldn't want to drink this wine with a whole roasted leg of wild boar?
Overall score: 7.5/8
How much?: $18 retail.

Understanding H.264 Video Compression
How the new H.264 standard for surveillance video compression works, and when to use it
H.264 is the latest official video compression standard, which follows from the highly successful MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 video standards and offers improvements in both video quality and compression. The most significant benefit for IP video systems is the ability to deliver the same high-quality, low-latency, digital video with savings of between 25 and 50 percent on bandwidth and storage requirements. Or to put it another way, the goal is to deliver significantly higher video quality for the same bandwidth.
What is H.264?
H.264 is a video codec (compression and decompression, a.k.a., encode, decode) standard. A video codec is designed to compress and uncompress digital video in order to reduce the amount of bandwidth required to transmit and store the video. This is needed as the raw data rate of uncompressed CCIR601 active digital video (720x480 pixel, 4:2:2 video at 30fps) is in excess of 158Mbps. That raw volume is over 300 times the capacity of a 512kbps ADSL connection and would allow only a little more than one hour of recording on an 80GB hard disk.
Simply scaling the video, to SIF resolution (352x240 pixels with a 4:2:0 video color sampling scheme at 30fps), and compressing with standard utilities such as WinZip or Gzip could achieve 10:1 compression. However, at least 300:1 compression is needed to stream live video over an ADSL connection and to achieve 300 hours (12.5 days) recording to an 80GB hard disk. This level of compression can be achieved with H.264.
Implementing the Standard
It is important, before looking at H.264 in more detail, to understand the difference between making a comparison between a standard and an implementation of a standard. The two are very different. Thus when people say, "H.264 provides better video quality than MPEG-2" this is a little misleading.
H.264 is a video compression standard. The H.264 standard defines the syntax of a compliant bitstream, to which a compliant decoder must conform exactly, implementing all the necessary tools defined by the standard in order to decode the bitstream.
An H.264 encoder, conversely, can implement a subset of the syntax defined by the standard, providing it produces a compliant bitstream. Various implementations and algorithms within the encoder are also not defined by the standard, and are created by the designer of the encoder. As such, H.264 encoders from different vendors will produce streams of differing quality, for the same bitrate.
So it is more appropriate to say, "H.264 provides a richer syntax and toolset than MPEG-2 and as such allows the possibility of implementing a superior video encoder that can generate higher quality video for the same bitrate, and can generate the same quality video at a much lower bitrate."
This can be demonstrated using the reference software encoder (JM11) freely available from the International Standards Organization (ISO). The H.264 reference encoder allows a user to select which tools to use in order to encode a particular video sequence. The table below shows the result of encoding an identical video sequence using the H.264 reference encoder with different tools. Each output bitstream from each test is a fully compliant H.264 bitstream and each bitstream is of equivalent video quality.
Bitrate (kbps)
Total execution time of required coding tools only (relative)
I-frame only encoding
I and P-frames but with no motion estimation (0 search range)
I and P-frames with a +/-16 search using a simplified search algorithm
I and P-frames using a full search algorithm with differing block size motion compensation
This table clearly shows that the more tools and algorithms that are used, the greater the compression achieved for the same quality of video. However, it is also clear that the addition of tools comes at the expense of increased complexity - in this case measured by the execution time of the encoding process. It is this increase in complexity that often causes some tools or algorithms to be omitted from the design of an H.264 encoder.

Has any RV park asked you to send a picture of your rig before they would accept a reservation? We just inquired into a reservation for a month at a KOA in Virginia in September and they want us to send a picture first. Our fifth wheel is a 2009 and we stayed at that KOA last September for two weeks. No explanation given for the request, even after being told it was a 2009 model. We've stayed in over 60 RV parks now, but this is a first. It didn't appear last year that the KOA had particularly high standards at that time....

I can understand not wanting old wrecks that may be a problem but this "We are better than you" attitude really annoys me. We have a 1995 Foretravel that has been completely re-furbished to 2007 standards and it is stunning. Friends have a popular 2004 that is pretty worn looking - it's all they can afford. Are they any less people than us?
If you have the attitude that you are better than me because you have more money then I certainly don't want to share the same park with you.

Katherine Jackson feels like SHE'S been taken for a ride ... by her debt-plagued son Jermaine, who plunked down a huge amount of cash on a Ferrari ... sources close to the Jacksons tell TMZ.
As we reported ... Jermaine spent more than $160,000 on a Ferrari smack in the middle of jury deliberations in the Michael Jackson wrongful death trial -- perhaps banking on the fact that his mom would come into a boatload of cash.
We're told Katherine is livid because she has recently bailed him out of debt. We're told Jermaine's baby mama Alejandra came to him for rent but he didn't have the cash, so Katherine anted up. She feels it's totally irresponsible of Jermaine to spend $70,000 for the car (he got around $90k for the Rolls he traded in) when he can't pay his bills or his child support.
What's more ... we're told Katherine is griping that she was talked into filing the wrongful death lawsuit by Jermaine and Randy, and she's experiencing a pretty severe case of buyer's remorse.
I am sure the attorney fees were quite substantial on top of that new Ferrari. I am sure she is lamenting bringing the suit because it took some of her operating cash and fettered it away.
Such a bizarre family
Bizarre only if you believe everything you read on the internet.
All she's gotta do is tell the deadbeat "no."
what a bunch of money grubbers
She may as well go ahead and try to spend it all, because what she can't spend will go to MJ's 3 kids.
Rich people problems. How much money has the Jackson estate made since his death ?
If this story is true.................Mrs. Jackson STOP bailing his as____s out! The next time Alejandra take his a___ss to court, don't intervene!
Jermaine can't even make his child support payments and he is buying a Ferrari. OK this is why the family wanted to sue everyone connected to Michael Jackson so all the brothers will have money. Time for them to get a real job and work 9-5 like everyone else. Time for all of the brothers to take responsibility for paying support to their children.
and now she knows the main reason they had her file the suit in the first place for the money . that they could continue to be free loaders off of . too bad she can demand Jermain take back the car and use the money he spent to start paying his bills. and child support. or better get a job himself at long last.
WHYYYYYYYY is she paying this big man's child support???? WHY??????? She's giving him bad habits. No wonder he went out and bought this car. He knows she'll bail him out! Omg! What a nasty, selfish creep. He doesn't care about his mother nor his children #Disgusted
She's not exactly new to parenting. Does she not yet understand that he does things like this because she bails him out? It was her job to raise him to be a self sufficient adult. Part of that includes allowing him to learn sometimes painful lessons. It's hard to see your children go through difficulties but bailing them out doesn't prevent that. It simply puts it off until you're no longer around. By bailing out her sons, Kathrine is doing nothing but saving herself the pain of seeing them struggle because once she's gone they'll certainly struggle to manage their finances.
Argh!!! Katherine is too nice. She needs to Leave him to fend for himself. Most moochers would eventually stop mooching when their is nobody to mooch from. Jermaine makes me sick. He has like 6 kids and he doesn't even pay child support all his kids used to live in katherines house because he doesn't want to get them a place. what a loser. Hope katherine doesn't bail him out anymore. I know that's her son and a mother would always want to bail their kids out but arghh. he is just s***.
What's pathetic is his fanatics think they deserve special treatment for loving him, like he was poor little Peter Pan who did nothing dangerous to hurt his kids. I didn't know that tellling your kids to hand Murray money for his loyalty & "milk" was good.
Lies don't make someone a better person.
Where's the father ? The Jackson boys need a TWO PARENT HOME. Katherine Had a STRONG HUSBAND

The Foundation for Successful Projects
The size of a work breakdown structure (WBS) is not an indication of how tight the PM's control will be. But many PMs and executives mistakenly think micro-detail gives them tight control. It actually gives them less control and a schedule that is too detailed to track and keep current.
WBS: It's Not a "To Do" List
A "To Do" list work breakdown structure does not give a project manager any of the following:
- a foundation for clear team assignments
- a tool for close tracking or
- a technique for tight scope control.
Many PMs believe their work breakdown structure WBS should be a "To Do" list for the project so they can tell people everything they need to do. As a result, their projects fail most of the time. Yes, those PMs are to blame for the 70% project failure rates in organizations. Let's see why.
These PMs create a monstrous list by writing down what needs to be done in order, from first to last. That approach requires very little thinking and not much effort. In a short period of time, the PM has a long "To Do"' list." Here's what happens when a PM takes that approach:
- The project takes about 50% longer than it should
- The "To Do" list expands weekly during the project's entire life
- The project manager makes vague, unclear assignments to the team
- The team spends hours in status meetings discussing what to do next
- The project finishes late and requires weeks of rework after it is finished.
To avoid this nasty situation, you need to decompose the project's scope into the work breakdown structure (WBS). Decomposition takes longer than jotting down a "To Do" list and it requires a lot more thinking. However, taking extra time and doing critical thinking gives you a professional-grade work breakdown structure. Consistently successful project managers always use decomposition. It saves time during the life of the project and provides better control.
Problems With the "To Do" List Approach
First, the "To Do" approach leads to, and even encourages, micro-management of the people working on the project. Micro-management is appropriate when you have slackers and nincompoops working for you, but few project teams are composed entirely of these types. The majority of your project team members will not thrive under micro-management. This style tends to encourage dependency rather than independence. People should be able to decide what needs to be done to complete their assignment(s) and how to do it.
Second, PMs are consistently more effective when they hold people accountable for reaching measured achievements rather than completing a "To Do" list. How often do people complete a list of tasks but achieve nothing? On the other hand, when you base your assignments on measurable achievements, no one loses sight of the desired end result. In addition, they commit to achieving it.
Third, the "To Do" list approach is hard to maintain. People have to report on many tasks and that decreases the odds of receiving accurate and timely status reports. The PM, with or without clerical support, has a great deal of data entry to do to input all this status data. Tracking can fall behind and may even stop because it takes too much time and effort. This may sound unlikely but it happens frequently, even on large and important projects. The PM's logic is, "No one is looking at all the detail anyway, so why spend all that time to catch up?"
How many tasks should a work breakdown structure have? There is no magic number. The usual mistake is to lay out too many tasks and create a "To Do" list. It's easy to be caught up in the idea that a work breakdown structure should detail everything that everyone is going to do for the project. This springs from the false notion that a project manager's job is to walk around with a checklist of 17,432 items and tick each item off as people complete them.
The "To Do" list approach is usually linked to the fallacy that the project plan should be a step-by-step procedure for doing everything in the project. The idea is that it is helpful in case you have to do it again. If you are managing the wrong things, this may be handy because you do increase the odds of having to do this project again. Sponsors encourage this behavior by marveling at monstrous project plans. They believe the PM has thought of everything and project success is ensured.
The result of these fallacies is that PMs produce project plans with hundreds or even thousands of tasks. Many of them have durations of a few hours or a few days. Does this level of detail give you better control and lead to project success? Absolutely not. In our view, a "To Do" list interferes with the achievement of a successful result.
Work Breakdown Structure: It's a List of Measurable Deliverables or Achievements
Look at the section of a work breakdown structure below. We developed it using our Achievement-driven Project Methodology™. We decomposed the scope it into seven high-level achievements (three are shown in the screen shot). Then we decomposed the high-level achievements into smaller achievements. Next, we divide those achievements down to the level of individual team member assignments. This process takes some thinking and you need to master the right techniques for consistent success on your projects.
As a rule, we suggest that the majority of assignments in a work breakdown structure have durations between 1 and 8 weeks. We recommend weekly status reporting of these three numbers:
- hours worked
- percentage complete and
- estimate of hours of work remaining to complete the assignment.
This combination allows you to maintain good control while placing the responsibility for achievements on the team members.
Work Breakdown Structure: Instructions for Projects of Different Sizes
The work breakdown structure (WBS) for cross-functional corporate projects gives you the opportunity to design an assignment and monitoring process. We recommend breaking work down into "packets" of achievements for which you will hold people and teams accountable. This is part of our achievement-driven approach. The graphic is an example of how this works.
Tier 1: Small Project
Done within an organizational unit with your manager or your boss as the sponsor
Participation There is great advantage in terms of project commitment when the team members participate in the development. The lowest level will be their individual assignments. So it helps build commitment if they are
Templates – Sections of work breakdown structures from previous projects are always a useful time saver in the development of the work breakdown structure. These templates are even more valuable when they are accompanied by information about the actual performance on the tasks and the hours of work that the achievement required on a previous project. There is still great value in having the people who will be doing the work participate in this process rather than simply using the template with modifications made by the project manager.
WBS Dictionary – This is often skipped on small projects because that level of formal documentation is usually not needed.
Tier 2: Medium Project
Cross-functional effort affects multiple departments or is done for your customers/clients
Participation – As project size increases, the process of decomposing higher-level achievements expands. Generally, we would form separate work teams for each major deliverable and have each team decompose that achievement down to the level of individual assignments. This process not only improves the clarity of assignments but also allows for an early consideration of alternatives on each assignment in the WBS.
Templates – Sections of work breakdown structures from previous projects are always a useful time saver in the development of the work breakdown strAs the size of the WBS increases, the additional documentation that comes in the work breakdown dictionary is useful. In it, we keep track of all the predecessor, estimating, and change control information about the tasks in our work breakdown structure. These templates are even more valuable when they are accompanied by information about the actual performance on the tasks and the hours of work that the achievement required on a previous project.

WBS Dictionary – As the size of the WBS increases, the additional documentation that comes in the work breakdown dictionary is useful. In it, we keep track of all the predecessor, estimating, and change control information about the tasks in our work breakdown structure.
Tier 3: Strategic Project
Organization-wide projects with long term effects
Participation – On organization-wide projects, it is difficult or impossible to assemble all members of the project team to participate in the creation so we increasing rely on templates and the work of the project manager.
Templates – As the scale of a project increases to the strategic tier, the identities of the team may not be known. As a result, it becomes increasingly difficult to involve the project team members in the development. In these situations, templates should be used to as great an extent as possible.
WBS Dictionary – the Dictionary should be created and continually updated as changes take place. Whenever there are changes to the WBS or other information such as duration, resources assigned, cost estimates and precedence relationships we update the dictionary.
You can learn how to create a WBS that makes your projects more successful by working individually with your instructor in our on-line project management courses.

How to Construct a Work Breakdown Structure

It was the night before I had the awesome opportunity to see Barack Obama in-studio on The Daily Show. I got my The Audacity of Hope and my Obama biography and curled into bed, thinking I would read some passages and get excited about seeing the man with the otherworldly charisma the next day. But I also had a stack of books that authors and publicist have sent me to review for feministing, so I thought, "Mmm…maybe I'll just flip through a few.â€? Two hours later I was still engrossed in I Love Female Orgasm and the Obama books remained unopened. Even super charismatic Obama didn't stand a chance against female orgasm.
Dorian Solot and Marshall Miller (imagine how explosive their sex must be!) are sex educators and Brown graduates who have pretty much dedicated the last few years of their lives to educating people about the complex and wonderful female orgasm.
What I really like about the book is that it is incredibly inclusive—no heterosexism here, no assumptions that their readers are sexually-active or experienced, no intimidation factor. Instead reading I Love Female Orgasm is like having a little sex therapy session with the least judgmental guru on the planet.
To be fair, some of it will seem basic to the "I already have my tool box of sex toys and I know how to use them� set, but for the rest of us, I think I Love Female Orgasm is filled with really important tips about some of the more elusive kinds of orgasms—multiple, during intercourse, and that old unicorn in the sky, female ejaculation.
By the by, 70% of women, despite Hollywood's portrayal, don't come from intercourse alone. I find this fascinating—why is it that the image-makers (screenwriters, directors etc.) continue to promulgate the myth that every woman has orgasmic intercourse? Women are made to feel "broken� and men are made to feel inadequate. Who's benefiting from this continued misinformation?
I also think the book has exciting potential to be a much-needed resource for men. Sometimes heterosexual or bisexual women get tired of articulating exactly what gets them off. Hell, sometimes they don't even know. This book allows men a window into some of the lesser know possibilities. And let's face it, dudes definitely need some sex ed beyond fake-ass porn, the embarrassed dad sex talk, and the locker room.
Thanks Dorian and Marshall. You guys are making the world a better place, one female orgasm at a time.
Next week: Miranda July's No one belongs here more than you. I promise I'll get to that Obama biography one of these days.

Runoff from the manure piles and from an overflowing storage tank flowed into Mud Creek (the white line on the photograph). A pipe then sent the polluted Mud Creek water into the South Scappoose River.
