Photography; Inkjet Print, 2008
"Through the 1960s and 80s many photographers portrayed and centered their work on industrial and suburban sites; the man altered landscape. It is now, 30 years later, that the inevitable action-reaction to those human acts they pictured would start to show up. Lost Rivers is a representation of nature's non-beneficiaries of our actual urban well-being. In the northeastern Mexican state of Nuevo León, some rivers and streams have dried out or are in the process of drying after Monterrey's metropolitan area erupted its urban growth and its demand for water. These dried up streams and rivers are one of many unintended consequences of wrongly implemented economical strategies. Relying less on irony and more on a romantic representation of decay, Lost Rivers is a social comment on contemporary Mexican unplanned urban development."

Alejandro Cartagena lives and works in Monterrey, Mexico. He is an artist, teacher and promoter of photography. His projects are primarily documentary based, and employ landscape and portraiture as a means to examine social, urban and environmental issues in Latin America. His work also engages with a larger history of photography by reinterpreting or rethinking the ways in which poignant issues have been addressed or represented in the past. This has widened his works´ aesthetic and conceptual approach and added layers of meaning to his complex interpretations of our society.
Cartagena's work has been exhibited and published internationally, and is in several public and private collections in Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Italy, and the United States. He is the recipient of several major national grants, numerous honorable mentions and acquisition prizes in Mexico and abroad.

Your wedding ring...keep it or toss it?
19 comments:
- AnonymousMay 31, 2010 at 4:44 AM
Here again: me too! I took off my wedding ring the minute I learned about the betrayal. It felt like a noose around my neck anyway and now I knew why. The good news: I bought myself another one to remind me to remain faithful to myselfReplyDelete
I took mine off and it's sitting in my jewelry box. My husband noticed and I think it bothered him.....he asked why? I said I'm not putting this back on until I am married to a trustworthy husband.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousOctober 28, 2010 at 2:47 PM
I took mine off and it will stay off. I intend to sell it for the gold and buy myself something I desire. The husband has to first prove that he can care enough about himself to deal with his sex addiction, and that he cares enough about me to prove I'm worth his effort. He can save up his pennies and buy me a new, less tainted one and start acting like he truly cares rather than he mostly cares about acting out. Bitter? Just today. Tomorrow I'll cry some more, then the next I'll hold his hand while he cries.ReplyDelete
Yeah, mine is off, too. Though I'm technically married, I don't feel like the marriage is legit, given that he lied to me before, during and after. (He's a sex addict, too.)ReplyDelete
And yes, I know that cycle – I cry, then feel better, he cries, then feels better – all to well. Eventually the crying stops and some laughter, once again, creeps into your days.
I miss my ring. I feel left out and sad when I am with all my friends and family that have their rings on.ReplyDelete
Our rings meant a lot to me and I will not wear another ring till- like Marni said- I am married to a trustworthy husband.
I sure hope I can spot the difference this time...
Just discovered your blog...glad I did!ReplyDelete
I stopped wearing my ring, too. My husband eventually noticed and asked why. When I was honest with him, he got upset. (Like you've said...they really don't get it, do they?!) He bought me another ring which I have been wearing on my ring finger. It just feels better. I still have my wedding ring, but I can't bring myself to put it on. I may eventually sell it. But...I'm 1.5 years out and still feel like my decisions might be rash.
Hi Krist,ReplyDelete
I'm glad you found us. I still don't wear my wedding ring. It's perhaps a symbollic thing...but then again, aren't all wedding rings symbollic? But it's my way of saying that my "old" marriage is over and I won't wear a symbol of it.
I still wear my engagement ring...which had belonged to my grandmother. It's a connection to strong women in the past. I don't need a ring. If there's anything I learned during my husband's infidelity, it's that ring doesn't really mean anything unless it's backed up by intention.
Hope you'll keep contributing to the conversation.
I just found this site. I took my ring of a week ago when the full details of my WH's second affair came out. It is still bothering me that I don't have a ring on, but right now it is just too painful to look at it. It reminds me that WH hasn't worn a ring for years now. He said it was always because of work he was doing, but he took it off when with AP and then eventually lost it (?)ReplyDelete
I want to say that someday I can put it back on...Replies
I still don't wear my wedding ring. I do wear my engagement ring but mostly because it belonged to my grandmother, then mother so it has significance apart from my husband.
As far as I'm concerned, my wedding ring is meaningless. In my case, my husband's sexual "acting out" began before our marriage so I simply can't believe that our marriage meant much to him though he professes otherwise.
In any case, those vows have been relegated to the junk heap. And though I still feel "married", I don't need a ring to remind me.
I sometimes think we'll get remarried some day privately...and at that point perhaps I'll accept that a ring can be imbued with importance.
But I know for many many people, their ring has such meaning to them. I hope you are able to put it back on someday, assured that your marriage is strong from the challenge.

Just about 7 months out, and I too took off mine the day I found out. It went on and off a couple times as my husband and I made progress and lost progress. As with many I turned to God with the pain, and asked him to show me the way to stay or go with the marriage. yes, I couldn't make the choice myself because well I was afraid. Not more then two weeks later, I lost my ring. Now I panicked, was this God's answer to end it? Or was he saying the old marriage was gone, which we know it is. My husband's thoughts have always been, "I wore it because it meant so much to you." Well when I told him, fearing he would be upset his comment was "I don't care about the ring, I care about you coming back." Oh yeah did I mention I'm on deployment in Afghanistan. While his words sounded nice, I wonder if they are just words. After all this is the same man that betrayed me while I was out here in Afghanistan. But I too feel that until he wants me to wear one again, to show the world I am his, I will not wear one. He must place it there, or some other that can say "She is the ONLY one and I want everyone to know it!"ReplyDeleteReplies
Thank-you so much for sharing your comments. I'm so sorry for what you're having to go through -- and so far away from home, doing such an important and difficult job. Focus on staying safe and trusting that the rest will fall into place with time and a commitment to healing. Whether you stay or go, the most important thing is that your heart heals enough to trust again.Delete

My ring came off after finding out about the adultery, which is now about 8 years ago. At times it still sickens me to the pit of my stomach thinking about what went on. The topic of the past very rarely comes up in conversation, but in the last 6 months she has started broaching the subject. She wants me to wear my ring again and comments that the ring has been off my finger longer than it was on. She has asked me to think about putting it back on,to which I said I would, but I am unable to tell her the reasons why I won't. The marriage ended the moment the adultery started, and the ring symbolized the trust and faithfulness which was now broken. She feels there is no long term commitment from me because I will not wear my ring, and I could leave at any time.ReplyDeleteReplies
It sounds to me as if you both need to talk to each other. She clearly fears that you're not totally committed to the marriage. You perhaps fear that this could happen again and so you don't fully commit.Delete
Instead, though, you're living in a sort of limbo -- one foot out the door. Which might feel safe to you but isn't, ultimately, very gratifying.
I know that fear all too well.
But if you're going to remain in the marriage, then I think you owe it to yourself to give yourself to it. Is there something she isn't doing that you need her to in order to re-establish a sense of safety within the marriage? Is there something she is doing that you need her to stop? Have either of you sought counselling, either as a couple or individually? It doesn't matter how long ago the betrayal was -- if it hasn't been addressed and processed, it can feel like yesterday.
I hope you'll consider digging further into your own issues around the commitment. With further healing of those old wounds, you just might find yourself committing to a rebuilt marriage -- perhaps symbolized by a new ring.
I just found out a week ago about my husbands betrayal, which lasted several months, was physical and emotional. It started while I was pregnant with our now 7 month old who is our third son. I am reeling. Of course, my ring came off and I firmly believe that I won't put it back on. It's too soon to make a decision right now, but we've started counseling and are trying to work through this. No guarantee that it will work at this point. I'm really glad that I found this blog. Thanks for creating it!ReplyDeleteReplies
I'm so sorry for what you're going through. Dealing with a new baby (and two other kids!!) is tough enough without factoring in the emotional maelstrom of discovering an affair.
Regardless of whether the counselling can help you rebuild a marriage, it can nonetheless help you be partners in parenting your kids should you split up. So it's worth a try.
And glad you found us. Sorry you needed to.

It has been 5 months since D-day...I am taking my ring off tonight. 2 weeks ago I caught him in a lie ( he is still talking to OW, they are co workers). He will not give up friendship so I give up the ring. I think I am done.......ReplyDeleteReplies
You set your boundaries and he violated them. You're wise to stick to your consequences.Delete
I'm sorry though. Nothing about this is easy, I know. Even when it's the right choice.
I have been married almost 33 yrs. My ring came off in Nov.2013 when I found the motel ticket in the car. He left Dec 1. We are still going thru everything, and he loves me, he's just not in love with me. Two kids, two grandkids, and three decades. This is not OW's first rodeo and she is also married. I am very glad I got to your site. Thank youReplyDeleteReplies
Hi Sherry,Delete
Glad you got here too.
Oh, how I loathe the "love you but not in love with you" nonsense. What does that even mean? It's like something a 15-year-old would say to break-up with someone.
I think what he's really saying is that the excitement of love, the romance, is gone. But what so many don't realize is that is a natural consequence of any relationship. It takes time and energy to keep some level of excitement...and even then, it's not going to be like a new relationship.
Have you told the OW's husband?

What else are you involved in around campus?I'm the vice president of the Brown University Gilbert and Sullivan Society; I perform in their shows, help with makeup and costumes, and recently music directed/assistant directed the fall production of Ruddigore. I also sing with the Brown University Chorus and music direct the all-female a cappella group the Ursa Minors.
Why did you choose to join a greek house?I never predicted I would end up joining a greek house, but I ended up spending a lot of my time at ADPhi last year because many of my BUGS friends were members, and between going to rush events and just hanging out in the lounge, I realized it was a warm, friendly, supportive, fun community that I definitely wanted to be a part of.
What is your favorite memory of Recruitment?My favorite memory of rush was playing Bananagrams at board games cocoa. We ended up using a lot of made up words, and it was probably the hardest I have ever laughed in my life! I also met several siblings for the first time at that event with whom I'm now very close.

Start designing your bridal shoes >>
Swatches of our beautiful Italian satin can be ordered. We also provide a swatch matching service, and personal design advice for your big day.
Here are some beautiful examples of unique bridal shoes you can create, to give you a little inspiration...
For extra height without the hassle, platform shoes are easier to wear. Customise with a pretty bow or flower accent to add feminine flair to this modern bridal shape.
A mid-heel peep is on-trend and ideal if you're not used to heels. At 3", this style is effortlessly elegant without compromising on comfort. However if you would prefer an even lower heel, then why not opt for the 1.5" heel alternative.
Peep toes work well with all dress lengths and in all seasons. Choose a d'orsay style for a more open look, or a full-cut for a graceful line. A Swarovski jewel cluster adds a touch of bridal glamour and elegance.
Open sandals show off pretty toes and painted nails. Add Swarovski diamanté trim and your feet will shimmer and sparkle with every step down the aisle.
Elegant pointed courts are an excellent option in cooler weather. Select from one of five different shades of white bridal satin for classic elegance on your wedding day.
Add a strap if you're planning to dance the night away. Secure your beautifully designed shoe to your newly-wed foot with an elegant ankle strap.
Metallics are a great alternative to white. Silver, gold or white gold bridal shoes double up nicely as party heels after your big day. Add a touch of metallic snake to the heel for a quirky edge.
Don't forget your bridesmaids. Let them experiment with their own style in keeping with your overall theme. An Upper Street gift card makes a unique thank you from the bride and groom.
Visit the Upper Street Inspiration Gallery Bride and Bridesmaid sections for more ideas.

As for rotation there really isn't one anymore It's mostly about hitting the Proc's.
I open with Outbreak or Icy Touch + Plague strike (if outbreak is down) then spread with pestilence, D&D. After that Howling Blast or WHATEVER OF THE 3 THAT HAVE PROC'ED! Then just keep diseases and D&D up and hit your proc's.
If it's single target you skip the pestilence and maybe D&D (depending on fight), and alternate between frost strike and obliterate still hitting howling blast when it proc's.

God as Process Engineer: Creator, Sustainer, Reedemer, and Provider
From a Judeo-Christian perspective, all of these curiosities dovetail into a profoundly meaningful explanation: Being made in God's image helps to explain our creative and investigative skills, particularly when we consider that God has specially engineered this universe to reveal himself to human beings.
Series: Creation, Evolution, and the Over-Active Imagination (2 entries)
Series: "The Language of God" Book Club (7 entries)
The BioLogos Book Club discussion of Francis Collins' The Language of God.
To Tame the World: What terrifies us about reality pushes us toward its Creator.
We can understand why man, modern man in particular, would like to mop the floors and bleach the walls. We might not be able to tame reality, but we can tame our perception of reality. We intellectualize in order to feel in control.
The Father of Intelligent Design
"There was no better way, in Boyle's opinion, to 'give us so great a Wonder and Veneration' for God's wisdom, than 'by Knowing and Considering the Admirable Contrivance of the Particular Productions of that Immense Wisdom,' by which he mainly meant the exquisitely fashioned parts of animals both great and small."
The Challenge of Cosmology
The idea that the story we know is only the very beginning raises a new question in place of Feynman's objection that Christianity is provincial. Is it presumptuous to claim that in such a grand universe, possibly with intelligent life arising in many places, the redemption and transformation of the entire cosmos starts here, on our pale blue dot?
Belief in God in an Age of Science: John Polkinghorne, Part One
The world is not full of items stamped "made by God"—the Creator is more subtle than that—but there are two locations where general hints of the divine presence might be expected to be seen most clearly. One is the vast cosmos itself, with its fifteen-billion-year history of evolving development following the big bang. The other is the "thinking reed" of humanity, so insignificant in physical scale but, as Pascal said, superior to all the stars because it alone knows them and itself.
A Plea to My Shepherds
... I would exhort these, my fellow conservative evangelical shepherds and thinkers, to set aside all reticence and fear, emerge from anonymity, and storm the forum of discourse, engaging this most pressing matter with vigor, equanimity, and humility. In doing so, know upfront that there will be few handrails to guide; you will not be building upon an extensive precedence of published conservative thought.
Series: Made in the Image of God: The Theological Implications of Human Genomics (4 entries)
This series by Denis Alexander reflects on advancements in genomics as well as their theological implications. He focuses on the relatedness of hominin genomes, arguing that this does not interfere with the image of God in humans. The image of God depends more on the capacity for relationship and covenant, not on a list of particular physical qualities. He then discusses why the recent studies of genomics provide "no grounds for genetic determinism."
Series: Science and the Bible (22 entries)
This ongoing series written by historian Ted Davis begins with a brief synopsis of his personal background, and then goes on to reveal his passion for debunking "the now-common view that the history of science and Christianity is one of ongoing, inevitable conflict."
Willing to be Wrong
The debate is often not about evidence, but about making sure that others do not transgress our interpretive boundaries and insist that we're wrong. We've bitten from the tree of knowledge and we love its taste.
Series: Asa Gray and Charles Darwin Discuss Evolution and Design (5 entries)
Many Christians believe that they face a painful choice-- either life was designed by God or it is an evolutionary product of natural selection. Charles Darwin himself believed in this dichotomy, and people ever since have felt the need to "choose sides". However, looking back at history, we find that one of Darwin's chief scientific colleagues, Asa Gray, did not share this perspective. In this three-part essay, part 1 charts the relationship of Asa Gray and Charles Darwin. Part 2 describes Darwin's struggle with the problem of natural evil and design in nature, and part 3 explores how Asa Gray was able to embrace evolution without rejecting the idea of design.
Gracious Dialogue
Our desire to engage in gracious dialogue with fellow believers who reject biological evolution has been receiving increased attention in both the Christian and secular press. More importantly, we are being joined in this reconciling project by our brothers and sisters in Christ who have often been defined primarily as our "opponents".
What Does It Mean to Be Human? A Response to Bruce Little, Part 2
Trinitarian theology and the image of God are important, non-essentialist resources to help us think about the distinct place of humanity in creation.
The Questions Update: The Image of God
Over the last two weeks, the Forum has explored the imago Dei from various perspectives. Today's post features a preview of the updated Question, "How could humans have evolved and still be created in the ' Image of God'? written by Senior Web Consultant and Writer Deborah Haarsma.
The Broken Made Whole
There is a sense in which we look at Temma and we want to affirm that she is made in the image of God by denying that the image of God has anything to do with her physical, material body.
More Than Skin Deep: The Image of God in People with Disabilities
My students twinge and recoil a bit at the thought that persons with disabilities can be made in God's image. "They just don't look like it," they say, zeroing in on what is physically seen.
Series: Chosen by God: Biblical Election and the Imago Dei (6 entries)
At the center of the theological and cultural controversy surrounding biological evolution stands the question: "How do human beings—creatures uniquely created in the image and likeness of God—fit into the scientific picture of life's origins and development?" In this three-part series, Dr. Joshua Moritz endeavors to address this question by exploring what Scripture means—and does not mean—by the designation "image and likeness of God".
Southern Baptist Voices: Evolutionary Creationism and the Imago Dei
I wish to question whether or not it is possible for the image of God to be produced through the evolutionary process apart from the special intervention of God.

(CNN) -- The London Summer Olympics may have been the most-watched event in television history but advertising revenue from the 2012 Games surprisingly disappointed French advertising group Publicis, as did revenue from last year's highly-watched European football championships.
But the lackluster revenues from such sporting events' ad purchases illustrate a disturbingly larger trend -- last year's revenue was worse than expected. And Publicis expects this year to be even harder.
In 2012, the European advertising network saw its "organic revenue" -- a key measure of growth and a barometer in the advertising industry -- grow less than 3%. Matching, let alone surpassing, that number in 2013 will be even tougher, said Maurice Levy, Publicis' CEO to CNN's Nina dos Santos. To push back, he says his company will shift toward "fast-growing markets" in digital and emerging economies while its home base of Europe recovers from its problems.
"I call Europe the sick child of the world nowadays because there are so many issues that have to be addressed -- starting with budget deficits (and) public spending -- that need to be addressed quite seriously," said Levy. "And this will probably lead to very little growth, if any."
Publicis' pivot to digital and emerging markets echoes a similar strategy that WPP's CEO Martin Sorrell outlined in 2011. He said his firm's focus would include new markets and new media for better revenues over the next decade.
"I think there are three things," said Sorrell. "Our strategy is new markets, which are the BRICs and next 11 (emerging economies); new media, which is running from PC, through mobile to video content, to social networking and then...consumer insight, which is about data analytics and application of technology."
But while the euro recently hit a 13-month high, which makes eurozone exports more expensive and less competitive when sold overseas, Publicis' Levy said the currency exchange issue is not as big a concern as the operating challenges that European companies face.
"When you look at the current situation, we are loaded with a lot of costs, charges, taxes, which are making the competitiveness of this company much more difficult. We have to take this down if we want to solve our problem for the long term."
"I don't see the European market growing in 2013," said Levy. "I believe that it will start to recover a little bit in 2014, and the good growth will come only in 2015."

Ancient Egyptian Murder Mystery at Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery
23rd July 2009
Investigations into a 1,700-year-old murder mystery continue – after state-of-the-art 21st century techniques were even foiled by the case.
Last December three Egyptian mummies from Birmingham Museums and Art Gallery (BMAG) were CT scanned at Mid Staffs NHS Foundation Trust in Stafford in a quest for more information on the circumstances surrounding their deaths.
See some of the scans on our Flickr photostream or visit the 'Mysteries Inside the Mummies' web resource for more images, videos and information about the mummies and the CT scans.
Museum staff were particularly keen to learn more about a 'metallic' object in the neck of a Graeco-Roman mummy, discovered on x-rays in 1995, with suggestions it may have been an arrow-head.Instead, the scans have revealed the object is in fact one of three or four fragments – probably metal – lodged in the base of the skull. So the mystery remains.
Councillor Martin Mullaney, Cabinet Member for Leisure, Sports and Culture, said: "This is an absolutely fascinating case and perfectly illustrates how new technologies can be used to better understand secrets that have been hidden for thousands of years. The CT scans offer an exciting insight for both researchers and visitors."
Arrangements for the state-of-the-art scans were made by Bob Loynes, previously an Orthopaedic Consultant at the Hospital, and a keen Egyptologist for decades. In the past, it has been necessary to unwrap mummies to carry out investigations, but this clearly destructive process can now be avoided.
Mr Loynes said: "The opportunity to help with the further investigation of these mummies was a very exciting one for me. The CT Scans have shown amazing details, which have produced as many questions as they have given answers. "There are many more questions & further investigations are being planned. I hope we'll be able to come back later with more answers and a comprehensive report."
Scans of the second mummy, that of Padimut, priest of the goddess Mut and probably of the 21st Dynasty (1085-935 BC), showed evidence of high quality mummification – including removal of the brain and plates in front of the eyes.Investigations into the third mummy threw up more mystery. The mummy, that of Namenkhetamun of the 26th. Dynasty (664-525BC) was described as 'the daughter of Amunkhau' on the coffin lid. But the scan has revealed the mummy is male.
Researchers also discovered another mystery – an unexplained hole in the mummy's back which is the size of a fist. Adam Jaffer, BMAG's Curator of World Cultures, concluded: "This scanning has produced views of the museum's mummies which have never been seen before. We have been able to 'virtually unwrap' them without causing any damage. However, scanning poses new questions about the life and death of these ancient Egyptians which we will try to find the answers for."

In essence then, Chris "Einstein" Carter says that the Giants fade in November because they have been ground down by Coughlin but with 2 months of additional grinding, they rise from the dead because of their greatness. That makes perfect sense.

Serious question,
Will the rosters be updated before we have to put in the depth charts?
I'm so excited that I can get back to my regularly scheduled refreshing of Hornets Report, knowing that Sim League is BACK!
That's what I was looking for. If the index would be updated.
I was just curious because an earlier trade that I made (involving just a draft pick purchase) didn't show on the index until after the next sim. Remember, this is my first player trades that I have made. That was no big deal, but it made me unclear if the index could be updated without moving forward a day.
Staying on grounds is perfect as long as Disney is all you're doing. Can't beat their transportation, to and from the airport (if flying); plus from resorts to parks and back; and you get the extended hours, it's well worth it
The only thing I remember from that show is the baby saying "Not the Momma!!" and happy thoughts, too young...
And "I'm the baby, gotta love me!"
So you will be down there at that time too huh? And possibly the commish. We should organize the First Annual HR Sim League GM Meet & Greet.
Right because that would be a much more convienant place than (Gasp) New Orleans
PS Let me know how that convo goes with the sig others.
Hey Babe, I know we're on vacation and all but tonight we're going to meet up with some friends.
Oh ok , how do you know them
Well, uhh remember that basketball league I was telling you about?
Wait have you met them before? Are we going to have to talk about your fantasy basketball thing the whole night?
no well maybe, but uhhh I was just kidding. Space Mountain instead?
I've stayed at the music and sports. Every Disney hotel is nice, they aren't my favorite but they get the job done. This time around we stayed in the Art of Animation, it was awesome.
Thats the newest one right? The GF wants to stay there next lol
Yeah I think we were only like the second group to stay in our room. The Mermaid section of it isn't even opened yet.
It's interesting though, the main building and Mermaid section were built in 01 as part of the Pop Century but never were finished because of a Hurricane. So the main building is the same layout as the Pop Century.
It's the first Disney hotel to have individual check-in kiosk's so the "cast members" come walk up and greet you before bringing you to their kiosk.
Ok now I'm kinda jealous!!!
2013-1014 is the season the Pelicans fanbase grows!!!!

We have known for years that porn is destructive to marriages, families, individuals, and society. We also know that is is addictive - more so than crack or heroin. Science is just now finding out just how destructive it is to the brain. Using pornography radically changes the neuro-pathways in the brain by causing the body to inject strong neuro-stimulants directly into the pleasure center of the brain. Repeatedly doing this means the structure of the brain itself is altered and the effects are devastating. As one psychologist puts it, "pornography hijacks the proper functioning of their (men in particular) brains." More:
Viewing pornography is not an emotionally or physiologically neutral experience. It is fundamentally different from looking at black and white photos of the Lincoln Memorial or taking in a color map of the provinces of Canada. Men are reflexively drawn to the content of pornographic material. As such, pornography has wide-reaching effects to energize a man toward intimacy. It is not a neutral stimulus. It draws us in. Porn is vicarious and voyeuristic at its core, but it is also something more. Porn is a whispered promise. It promises more sex, better sex, endless sex, sex on demand, more intense orgasms, experiences of transcendence.So, what can we do about it?
Pornography "acts as a polydrug," Struthers explains. As Dr. Patrick Carnes asserts, pornography is "a pathological relationship with a mood-altering experience." Boredom and curiosity lead many boys and men into experiences that become more like drug addiction than is often admitted.
Why men rather than women? As Struthers explains, the male and female brains are wired differently. "A man's brain is a sexual mosaic influenced by hormone levels in the womb and in puberty and molded by his psychological experience." Over time, exposure to pornography takes a man or boy deeper along "a one-way neurological superhighway where a man's mental life is over-sexualized and narrowed. This superhighway has countless on-ramps but very few off-ramps.
Pornography is "visually magnetic" to the male brain. Struthers presents a fascinating review of the neurobiology involved, with pleasure hormones becoming linked to and released by the experience of a male viewing pornographic images. These experiences with pornography and pleasure hormones create new patterns in the brain's wiring, and repeated experiences formalize the rewiring.
And then, enough is never enough. "If I take the same dose of a drug over and over and my body begins to tolerate it, I will need to take a higher dose of the drug in order for it to have the same effect that it did with a lower dose the first time," Struthers reminds us. So, the experience of viewing pornography and acting out on it creates a demand in the brain for more and more, just to achieve the same level of pleasure in the brain.
While men are stimulated by the ambient sexual images around them, explicit pornography increases the effect. Struthers compares this to the difference between traditional television and the new high definition technologies. Everything is more clear, more explicit, and more stimulating.
Struthers explains this with compelling force:
Something about pornography pulls and pushes at the male soul. The pull is easy to identify. The naked female form can be hypnotizing. A woman's willingness to participate in a sexual act or expose her nakedness is alluring to men. The awareness of one's own sexuality, the longing to know, to experience something as good wells up from deep within. An image begins to pick up steam the longer we look upon it. It gains momentum and can reach a point where it feels like a tractor-trailer rolling downhill with no brakes.
There are a few options. If you think you are an addict, then you need to see a mental health professional who specializes in addictions. Don't wait and think you can kick it on your own. The Austin Diocese can help you find a counselor with expertise in this area.
If you are not an addict, but you are having trouble stopping, then I recommend you try our accountability group at St. Mary's (if you are a male college student) or asking for help from a pastoral team member, but don't be surprised if you are referred to someone else who is able to help you. For other recommendations on behaviors that can help, see this previous post.

Foundation primers with sunscreen aren't very common, and this one has immediate appeal due to its silky texture, sheer flesh-toned tint, and the inclusion of gentle mineral-based sunscreens.
The sunscreen actives titanium dioxide and zinc oxide provide the necessary broad-spectrum protection that's a daily must to prevent signs of aging. This is easy to apply and sets to a soft matte finish. The only drawback is a small amount of fragrant sandalwood oil (listed by its Latin name Santalum spicata), which poses a slight risk of irritation. Without the fragrant oil, this primer would earn our top rating for its performance and commendable sun protection. Sunforgettable Primer SPF 30 is best for normal to oily skin.
This primer applies evenly to minimize redness and helps block both UVA and UVB rays with SPF 30. This non-irritating formula goes on lightly and evens out skin tone and texture. Essential oils, Blue Algae and antioxidants work together to hydrate and smooth skin. Apply after moisturizer and before makeup to help foundation and powder last throughout the day.
Active: Titanium Dioxide (5.5%) Zinc Oxide (5.5%), Other: Cyclopentasiloxane, Dimethicone Crosspolymer, Dimethicone/Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer, Dimethiconol, Caprylic/Capric Triglycerides, Propylene Glycol, Spirulina Maxima Extract, Opuntia Ficus-Indica Stem Extract, Glycerin, Phenoxyethanol, Water, Disodium Lauriminodipropionate Tocopheryl Phosphate, Camellia Sinensis Extract, Citrus Grandis Extract, Butylene Glycol, Palmaria Palmata Extract, Iron Oxides, Beta Carotene, Santalum Spicata Wood Oil, Vanilla Planifolia Fruit Extract
Colorescience PRO was founded by "the mother of mineral makeup" Diane Ranger, who bestowed that title on herself based on her role as founder of the mineral makeup behemoth Bare Escentuals in 1976. (Ranger subsequently parted ways with Bare Escentuals in 1991). Taking a cue from her Bare Escentuals days, Ranger designed Colorescience PRO to be all about "natural" loose-powder mineral makeup. Her goal was to offer medium- to full-coverage "healthy makeup" that is ideal for sensitive skin, with the added benefit of all-mineral, broad-spectrum sunscreen protection.
Ranger's concept has its strong points, but not all of the formulas jibe with the ideal of being great for sensitive skin. In fact, with the exception of only a handful of products, most include volatile fragrant oils and irritating ingredients, which are the last things that anyone's skin needs to stay healthy, whether sensitivity is an issue or not. This type of needless irritation hurts skin's healing process and disrupts its ability to produce healthy collagen.
Although Colorscience PRO offers some skin-care products, most of our readers' interest is on their color line, primers, and setting mists, so we concentrated our reviews on those products. What we found was that, except for the loose-mineral foundation and some of the brand's Sunforgettable products, this line falls short in terms of performance and value. To make matters worse, it's difficult to shop because it has opaque packaging, confusing shade names, and odd categories.
It's clear that Colorescience PRO knows how to make finely milled, silky powders packed with mineral sunscreens, but beyond that, there's not much to distinguish this line from lots of others that have capitalized on the runaway success of mineral makeup, despite the fact that mineral makeup really isn't anything new or all that wonderful.
The gem of this line is the loose-mineral foundation with sunscreen, and it indeed performs beautifully without irritating. The problem with this product is its price tag—$60—for a loose powder with sunscreen. That's ludicrous! Besides, all SPF-rated products must be applied liberally to get the stated level of sun protection, and how liberally are you going to apply a product that is this expensive?
Speaking of high prices, most of Colorescience's line is overpriced, despite the fact that there are a few worthwhile products. Just because high prices have become the norm for spa- and dermatologist-exclusive lines doesn't mean that the products are any better for you. Another notable frustration with this line is that not all of the products have been tested for their SPF rating, which means that you cannot rely on some of them for sun protection.
