There is nothng better then to have birds in one's garden, I love it, because I am a totally organic gardner. My problem is I have a planter by my front door that has pansies in it. I noticed one day while watering a bird was trying to build a nest in this planter, that is hanging on the wall by my front door. I pulled it out (it was empty, the bird was in the process of building it) I thought if I pulled out the nest in process the bird would go somewhere else and do her nest. Let me explain why I pulled it out, while she was in the process of building the nest I attempted to pull it out because I knew being by the front door and in the planter I could not water the plants in the planter and the pansies would die which would make the nest in the wide open. Well that is what exactly what happen, I stopped watering the planter because I did not want to get the nest wet, well the plant's went down and the nest is in the wide open, the pansies were hiding the nest before they died. Now when we go out the door and/or anyone comes to the door the bird takes off. The planter is at shoulder level and I am 5'7 a cat cannot get it but any other predator can (birds etc...). The nest is right out in the open, I feel sorry for her. So I thought I could move the planter higher up, I will not be touching the nest just moving the planter that the nest is in. If I was able to move it up higher, the nest will not be disturbed and will be in a more private place and not in the wide open. The planter will be up higher. My question is, If I move the planter up approximatly 15 inches up will she still go to the nest? Will she abandon it? I am not going to touch the nest, I just want to move the planter that the nest is in up higher, so that the nest is not right there at face level. If I move it up she will have more privacy and will be somewhat hidden. Can I move the whole planter up or will it cause her to leave her babies?
Thanks so much for taking the time to read my post, I hope someone here can help me with this. Groroses. |

I think it would be fine as long as you keep it in the same spot. |
Thanks sylvia for answering my query. I have moved the planter up about 10 inches. I forgot to explain that the bird is the common sparrow and the eggs have not hatched yet. So I thought I would add that info. Thanks again. Carrie |
I have the same situation. I have a planter hanging from my porch. The nest is not in the open because when the plant died, I just left in there. I know some birds nests you can move, but what about a doves nest? It still has 2 babies in it and the mother is always close by or sitting in it. They have gotten so use to us that I can work in the flowerbeds, open and close the front door hundreds of times, my husband can cut the grass, and we can even stand on a chair and look at them and they won't budge. BUT, let one of my neighbors walk by walking their dog and she goes crazy. Oh yeah, she dosen't like it when my husband starts his harley... lol If I wait until the babies fly away, can I relocate the planter to another location on my porch for her to use the next time? I'd even leave the dead plant in it for protection. |

I'd leave it til the babies fly, & then put it wherever I felt like the birds would be safer next time... but sometimes momma bird just wants a new house next year! |

What should I do if I get into a collision while cycling?
A collision can be traumatic. If you get into one, try to stay calm and take your time to assess the situation. Do not get back on your bicycle right away.
What should I do?
If you or someone else is hurt, call 9-1-1 and follow the instructions the operator gives you.
If no one is hurt, call the local police for instructions. You should call the police even in the case of a minor injury. In Ontario, all accidents resulting in personal injury or in property damage of $1,000 or higher must be reported. Find information about your local police services from your municipality.
If it is safe, move your bicycle and other vehicles away from moving traffic.
Collision with a Motor Vehicle
Take down the following information:
- Driver's license number - This is the most important information to take down.
- Driver's name and telephone number.
- Driver's insurance company, contact information and policy number - Damage to your bicycle can be claimed under the insurance policy of the driver.
- Witness information - Get the name and phone number of a few persons who witnessed the collision.
It is also useful to note the details of the incident, such as how, when and where it happened, as well as the weather and road conditions. You can also sketch on paper the collision scene indicating the position and direction of the vehicles and cross streets. This will help you tell the police what happened.
If the driver leaves the scene immediately after the collision, take down the license plate number so that police can find the driver. Also, make sure to get the contact information of a few witnesses to help you make the police report.
If you are injured, seek medical care as soon as possible and make sure to keep copies of all medical reports as evidence. You can then make a claim under the Motor Vehicle Accident Claims Fund.
Insurance Claim
In Ontario, you are entitled to no-fault benefits if you are cycling and hit by a motor vehicle. If you have auto insurance, you can claim no-fault benefits through your auto insurer even though you were on your bicycle. If you do not have auto insurance, you can claim benefits through the insurance policy of the owner of the vehicle that collided with you.
The process to make insurance claims in Ontario can be complicated. You can get a lawyer to advice you on what to do. Make sure you have eye witnesses and a medical report.
Collision Due to Faulty Public Infrastructure
If you feel that the fall or collision was due to faulty public infrastructure such as potholes, you can make claims to the municipal government within 7 days of the incident. Take photos of the scene, your bicycle and your injuries. Get an estimate on the cost of fixing your bicycle, and get a medical report if you have injuries. Then, contact your municipality.
After the Collision
You may underestimate the damage to your body after the collision. People often go into shock after an accident and can't think clearly. Get a doctor to examine you even if you don't see an injury or feel hurt.
You should also consider getting counseling after the collision.

The New York Times clearly wanted its readers to feel the pain of the victim. Here is how they began their front page story:
"As Clayton D. Lockett writhed and groaned…"
It was one of countless similar stories that ran all over the world.
They were about the controversy over an execution of a convicted murderer in Oklahoma.
Clayton Lockett, 38, was showcased as the victim of a botched execution. His vein reportedly collapsed as the first drug was being administered. Once that happened, as the Times put it: "Lockett writhed and groaned on the gurney after a large dose of sedatives had apparently not been fully delivered."
There were more details about Lockett, the victim, dying 43 minutes later of cardiac arrest.
Lockett has since become a symbol of the horrors of capital punishment. There is outrage all over the globe. The Times had another story just on that.
Of course, I understand the controversy. If the state is to carry out executions, they need to be controlled and quick.
But as a journalist, I was taken aback at the endless details about Clayton Lockett's death — and the lack of detail about why he was being put to death. Most of the articles — even the longer ones — usually had one quick sentence about a young woman he murdered.
I think that's a failure of journalism, so in my one small corner, I'd like to correct it.
Lockett murdered an Oklahoma girl named Stephanie Neiman. She was 19. It happened on June 3, 1999.
Stephanie was with an 18-year-old girlfriend driving to visit a male friend who lived with his 9-month-old daughter. They didn't know that Clayton Lockett had just broken into that house with two accomplices. Lockett and the others had tied up the man and were beating him, saying he owed them money.
As soon as Stephanie and her girlfriend were inside, they were hostages, too. Stephanie had graduated high school two weeks before. She played the saxophone in the school band.
Lockett and the others beat Stephanie, and used duct tape to tie her hands. They used it to cover her mouth, too.
Then they repeatedly raped Stephanie's 18-year-old friend.
Afterwards, they kidnapped all three adults and the child, putting them into Stephanie's truck and driving to an isolated road.
Lockett threatened his hostages, asking if they planned to contact police.
When Stephanie at first wouldn't agree to stay silent, Lockett shot her with a sawed-off shotgun. The shot didn't kill her and she fell down screaming. The gun reportedly jammed, but Lockett got it working again. Then he shot her a second time. Stephanie stopped screaming but was still breathing.
Lockett ordered the other two victims to put her in a shallow grave, and then bury her. She was still breathing as she was buried.
Stephanie's mother recently gave a victim's impact statement for herself and husband Steve before the execution. She described the last 15 years of their life as "hell."
"Every day we are left with horrific images of what the last hours of Stephanie's life was like," she said. "Did she cry out for us to help her? We go through the motions of living, we eat, we sleep, Steve goes to work and comes home again. We exist."
She said Stephanie was their only child.
She also said this:
"God blessed us with our precious daughter, Stephanie, for 19 years," she said. "Stephanie loved children. She worked in Vacation Bible School and always helped with our church nativity scenes. She was the joy of our life."
This is not a column defending what I agree was a botched execution.
I just felt the coverage failed to paint a full picture of what Clayton Lockett did to get the death penalty. And I don't understand why journalism has given him a thousand times more sympathy than the innocent girl he tortured and murdered.
His final moments aren't the only ones we should be reading about.

My wife has been looking in to taking an herbal enhancement for her lost libido. I have done a lot of reading about these and found that most of them are junk and that there are a few of them that seem to work. One in particular is Fematril, I am hoping that the herbalist who posted a reply in another post about Avlimil will read this and be able to give my wife and I some help. My wife is 29 and for the past 5-6yrs has noticed a severe lack of sex drive, mainly caused by being tired and stress. We have 2 children. My wife has also lost 112lbs in the past 15months, but that has not seemed to help at all. My wife is much better health now than she ever has been and says that once initiated she enjoys the intimacy very much, but that it is getting her to this point that is the problem because she just doesn't experience the desire she once did. After doing a lot of reading it seems like Fematril may help. The ingredient list is as follows. Clovevine Powder 500mg, Damiana Leaf 4:1 Extract 480mg, Muira Puama 4:1 Extract 260mg, Di-Arginine Malate 250mg, Avena Sative 10:1 Extract (oat straw) 150mg, Catawba Bark 4:1 Extract 150mg, Cinidium Monnier 25mg, Bioperine 3mg. I have also read some good stuff about another herbal call Sentia, but after studying the ingredients in it I am not sure if it is something that will work or not. The ingredients for Sentia are a Proprietary Blend of Epimedium, Damiana Leaf, Dodder Seed, Black Cohosh Root, Isoflavones, Valeriana Root, Ginger Root, Ginko Boloba, bayberry Fruit, Licorice Root, Capsicum Pepper, & Red Rasberry Leaf. Thank you all for your help. |

Im not claiming to be an expert on this subject,and I know this is a herb forum,but have you considered your wife might have a testosterone level problem. I have not looked into this in great detail,but I was watching a Doco the other night and watched a cross section of women with this problem being treated with testosterone,and the results were amasing. They really started to enjoy their sex life again,and most initiated intimacy ,which is something none of them had done for years. |
I would suggest that she just have her hormone levels tested before she starts taking anything - then she will know exactly what she is lacking..... With 2 kids tho'sometimes you just can't get your head to follow your heart!!!!! Good luck! |
I never heard of Fematril, but would heartily suggest Maca and Schizandra berries, should perk her right up, and you can get them both in organic forms, quite cheaply comparerd to any "blend". Wish I got to get completely away from my kids as much as she does :o) Have fun! Lynn |
Just curious as to what you've tried and how it's working. I'm still looking. |
It has been a long research process for us, but we have finally decided to order the Fematril. Will post an update in a few weeks to let you all know how its going. |
Just ordered myself... I will post a follow-up once I receive it and take it for a few weeks. Wish me luck!! |
This is interesting, since I have recently seen that "sexual aids" make more money for the drug companies than antibiotics..... so they don't want to do much research into antibiotics anymore.... |

Does anyone have any info on FEMATRIL, any results yet? |
I went in to place my monthly order for Fematril and tripped across this website. I had to leave feedback for those of you who have been looking for info and for those who may see this site again. I started Fematril 2 months ago because it received the highest rating on a comparison test done on several similar products. I cannot tell you the difference it has made. My libido was down and my husband and I were unhappy with my lack of sex drive. This product has worked wonders. Additionally, they said it would really help with lubrication and it absolutely does. We went from experiencing intimacy once every month or two to our current 4-5 times per week. I LOVE this product and highly recommend it because it really works! Good luck everyone! |
I just ordered some Fematril. I'll try to remember to come back here and let you know what I think about it. Did you ever order any for your wife? If so, what did she think about it? |
Interestingly, this thread comes up at the top of the list when you do a Google search for "fematril". And it appears that sellers of this product have noticed. |

Does anyone else feel lighted headed or spaced out after taking fematril? |
Fematril made me feel awful!!! I had a headache and was terribly sleepy. Slept most of the evening on the days that I took it. I tried skipping a few days to make sure it was the Fematril that made me feel so bad and it was!!! I got the exact opposite effect from what I wanted!! |
- Posted by blondie311 (My Page) on Wed, Jan 25, 06 at 21:31
I have headaches too, but when you try to research any possible side effects you can't find anything on it. I don't get sleepy, I get very hyper. |
I came across this post in my research of Fematril too... and I was wondering if BenC8128's wife has tried it yet?? Anyone still experiencing headaches? Has it at least worked like it's supposed to and increased sexual desire? |
"Yet the actual evidence that it works for most uses is rather sparse." "We don't know if it's any good for all this stuff, but buy it anyway!" :) |
- Posted by umertoeco(firstname.lastname@example.com) onSun, Apr 2, 06 at 4:50
I have lost my libido a year ago and have eaten tons of pills including Fematril. Well it works but may be it is good for increasing but not for returning the sex drive. If you want to RETURN your libido it's better to use Sentia, it has stronger action. |

This is rather a personal subject, Eric. So it could be that regular posters do not wish to blurt out to everyone they know that they are using these products. So perhaps they sign up under an alias to post on this subject without risk of revealing too much of themselves. |
Practically no one uses their complete real name in these forums, so that's not the issue. It's not unusual in the Herbalism forum for posters to make their debut in the form of a glowing recommendation for some product and then are never heard from again. Usually it turns out that they registered on the day they made their post (as opposed to registering then lurking for awhile to get a feel of the place, as legitimate posters often do), and it's occasionally but not always obvious from their language and links to particular websites that their interest in herbalism is confined to marketing a particular supplement. In this thread we've had one blatant website promotion, and several other suspicious postings, two of which employed the same language about purported highest customer ratings. User testimonials are one thing, but it's not fair to forum users when supplement sellers pose as ordinary posters in order to make phony endorsements (this is a problem with testimonials in general, some of which are more obvious fakes than others). The practice also violates GardenWeb rules, and denies GW advertising revenue that can be used to make this a better place. |
Eric_oh, I have to agree with you. When I first read this post, even the original question seemed a little strange. I have been poking around the garden web for several years, roses, cottage gardens, garden junk, organics, etc. And even on 'conversations' I find that most people are a little bit more restrained in their descriptions of intimate details. You may be right about the spammers, but I wondered if the poster benc8128 wasn't the spammer and the testimonials were guys from his office. In other words, the whole thing was a set-up. I really like the Garden web and have learned a lot of very useful information here and even made friends with other posters. This was the first time I looked at this Herbalism Forum and I am frankly stunned that this post has made it this far without being yanked. This whole thread kinda gives me the willies. I don't think benc8128 is buying, I think he has something to sell. -Seamommy |

As for those posts that the women are getting sleepy... That could be a plus for the guys! lol Just kidding. My wife also suffers from a decreased (I mean absent) libido. She's on anti-depressants for Schizophrenia and Bi-Polar (Lithium and Welbutrin in pretty large doses) and we have sex < once a month. Additionally, she finds the act of sex inherently disgusting and really finds little joy in it. When we do have sex, she climaxes, but directly after that, it's all she can do to immediately wash everything. I know she's a mental mess and we (she) took Sentia for a while and it seemed to work, but it was getting expensive. Even lately when she drinks (which worked previously), she doesn't get aroused. She agrees that I'm not ugly and neither is she. In my opinion, we are both rather good looking. A few girls at work have found out about this "problem" and have offered their services, and though flattered, I turn the subject to something else. I have seen other instances of this problem manifesting in other ways with other people, and it somewhat resembles a quantum physics theory of state. Those that perceive themselves in a certain way are exactly that. Life is perception and we (ourselves) are responsible for altering that. The human mind is more powerful than any pill we can take, and we should tap that (free and limitless) resource. Obviously, I am not against medication, but there are alternatives. If my wife didn't take her medication, the resultant effects would be disastrous and possibly suicidal. There are those who will read this and consider it worthless, but then there are those who have found that most medications are really not the answer. There are books out there that we can read and grow from. We can't accept the "easy" way out and rot in our own pitiful existence. We need to learn and develop a mental process that empowers a path to happiness. We have to become more sexually attractive to our partners, and not just appearance, but mentally as well. We need to project from ourselves the image that she requires to make her feel aroused again. It is hard to have a partner that has no sexual drive due to the many stresses and disorders that one can face, but if they are suffering from this, we can't just sit by and be the victim. These pills seem to place the blame solely on the female. "They are the ones with the problem, so they need a pill to fix it." I disagree with this method of logic. Yes they have a problem, but it may never change. Both the male and female need to deal with it, not just the female. Don't take the easy way out, make an effort, improve yourself for her, and go FAR beyond the simple answer. Heck, if you are at this website, you've probably tried everything else, why not look inside yourself for the answer! |
I was just wondering if any one has experienced side effects with using Fematril. I have experience very bad Diarrhea. Has this happened to anyone else? I've only taken 3 pills but I'm afraid to continue. |
I second this opinion because had tried Sentia too and had excellent results. There is no doubt that it helps a lot. I also used Avlimil, which is not worthwhile thing. |
So Fematril or Sentia? My wife and I have been married for a couple of years and her sex drive has decreased rapidly due to taking birth control consecutively for the past 3 years. She loved sex before but her sex drive is almost non-existent. We are considering the two, Fematril and Sentia, which one? |

I am in the unfortunate position of many other guys. A girl with almost 0 sex drive. It sucks to no end so I either become the most patient guy in the world or leave her to someone else who wants to be patient (cause it sucks, have I said this already). Worst thing of it is she is not really missing anything. She feels fine and gets her needs filled. That is she gets holding and cuddling every day and sex once a month, while I would be happy with 2x a week (but that is not happenning. No matter how much I stress this is a problem, it is hard for her to understand something she does not feel or seem to need. Or at least this is what her body tells her. SO her efforts on this subject no matter how urgent I explain are kinda half hearted. I guess I can understand as hey, she feels fine... Anyways the method of this post is to say she tried fematril and I found it did work if she takes it lots(3 times daily). I did not get results when she took only 1 pill a day and I did see result after 2 weeks. The reason for me stating whether I got results is you cannot ask her as she will not feel any different nor will she realise she is horny (I will though). However she complained it made her stomach hurt (constipation was the word, though she may have had this confused with diarhea). Anyways, it made her tummy sore so back to little sex for me and zero sex drive for her. I have done more research and the net kinda has lots of self promotion on it where companies stage research reports and put their product at the top of the list. I found the ingredients on Avenavin and Nymphomax to be good for libido so I am gonna talk to her about trying this next as well as go to the health store and see which of their ingredients they carry as I know some of them they have like maca, l-taurine and others. Anyways I will do more research. I will likely buy these two next and see what happens. unfortunate male |
Unfortunate Male- I feel your pain. I love my wife, she is hot and sexy, but does not realize that we as men have needs. She feels fine not having sex and she only feels bad because she says no to me all the time. I'll give her credit she does realize to some extent but we are getting to the point where we need something to happen. We are going to try Fematril because of a reccomendation of a friend. I hope something good comes from this. I to have researched some other ingredients like maca, schizandra berries, etc. but we are going to try this and see where it leads. My only concerns are side affects like you stated, because if that happens and it's actually working she won't take it anymore. I'll keep you updated. Trad |
- Posted by sportytourer (My Page) on Tue, Dec 5, 06 at 20:38
She may be hot, she may be sexy, you may love her, but if you do not get your needs filled your relationship is heading for trouble. I hope it does not affect her tummy. My gf has had a low sex drive her whole life. I later found out which may have been due to her taking the pill since she was 17 (which is stupid as it does kill the sex drive long term). Even getting off the pill takes 6 months before a full sex drive can return. They never seem to mention that fact in any of the advertising. I would suggest she get her hormone levels checked by her doctor though her testosterone level is low but still in normal range. Good luck with the fematril. I will let you know how the other two work. Though I am focussing on any supplements that have the following ingredients; For sex drive: maca (peruvian), tribulus terrestris (puncture vine, goathead), avena sativa (oat straw), muira (mara) puama, epimedium (horny goat weed, bishop's hat), conidium (cnidium) monnier (monniers snowparsley), catawba (catuaba) bark, yohimbe bark, and maybe damiana leaf (though this last one may cause depression and other non desirable side affects so I am sketchy on). For increase pleasure: l-taurine, l-arginine, schizandra berry, ginkgo biloba. These I read enhance the circulatory and nervous system while increasing sexual fluids. Good Luck, If I find any of this stuff works will post. |
I'm voting for Sentia. It is a real help for women. It just can't be compared with Fematril or Avlimil. Fematril was the first for me and the only thing which I had reached was that this drug had put out my periods. The second supplement was Avlimil and I have to say that I had noticed small results, which had vanished in a month. In a year I had tried Sentia and had found it very helpful. The world of orgasms just invaded me. |
- Posted by annkaganiy (My Page) on Sat, Jan 13, 07 at 19:42
Sentia is the best supplement for women without enquiry. When I had lost my libido I had a thought that I was not a woman. It was very hard… I have used different drugs and only Sentia has given the real results. I still don't have orgasms but I have sex with grate pleasure and don't feel pain. And do you know what is it: to feel pain when having sex? I hope my orgasms would return too. |
My husband and I used to have an active and vital sexlife, but after 3 kids and 10 years of marraige, I had to admit my libido was suffering, and... JUST KIDDING!!! hey- also tripped over this site while researching- so now I'm hoping some REAL feedback from ACTUAL people would help. sucks that even a forum like this is getting invaded by advertizers posing as posters. what a crock. I'm just intensely frustrated because there seems to be no reliable info or studies you can garantee weren't funded by the manufacturers. I'll lay it all out because it's not like I'll meet you guys at a bar anytime soon (and know it). anyway, thing is, I'm young. just shy of 25. most of the products out there don't talk to me. It's all "mid-life this, menopause that". Can't seem to hit clitoral orgasm unless I'm alone. Another weird thing: I'm not self-conscience- in any way- I have no sexual communication problems, no history of sexual mishap or abuse, no body issues. I think I look really good, and I'm not inherently shy- especially having been with the same partner so long. When I am into it, I'm outright adventurous. It's getting into it, WANTING to get into, lubrication and clitoral oragasm it that doesn't happen. The only factor I can see in all of this: I have poly-cystic disorder. I don't know if this means ANYTHING. I know I have enlarged ovaries. It causes most of my periods to be debilitating. past that, I don't know. If anyone else here fits my profile and has any advice, do tell. One thing I noticed is that Avlimil seems shady to me. I read articles in the Washington Post about how it was deliberatly trying to look like a bona-fide pharmacuetical ad, when it has no fda backing (not that an FDA stamp means much) and isn't prescription. The PR folks brushed this off saying it was a good product that deserved a sleek campaign. that screams designer drug to me. You read the ingredients' poperties and- now I'm not against herbal remedies as long as they're substantiated- it was a lot of "has been used for centuries in china for...", "a traditional remedy for..." "said to improve.."- these totally nebulous claims all around. the only relevant thing, seems to me, are these anti-stress and weak-plant-estrogen factors. In which case, one or two over-the-counter herbal supplements could do the same trick, no? thoughts? I don't have money falling out of my pockets, but I might just take one for the team here and try SOMETHING-ANYTHING and report back. suggestions? ps- yes, i joined the forum just for this- today. yes- my personal info and yahoo mail are bogus or anonymus- it's just info/address I use for safe anonymus posting. |

I would like to start off by saying I actually came to garden web for some sewing hints. I have been married to my husband for nearly 2 years and we have been together for nearly 6 years. As some of ya'll have posted, my low sex drive is causing many arguements between me and my husband because I don't see that I have a problem but he does, especially since at one point of our dating we were doing it on a daily basis. I have read alot of information that has been posted on this forum and am going to try Sentia. I want to thank everyone for the helpful hints. I will let ya'll know if it helps. Thank you. |
I had the problem that whenever I had sex it just felt like nothing. I didn't feel any pleasure at all. I didn't know why I couldn't feel anything. So I just couldn't figure out what was wrong. Has anyone experienced such a problem? Or am I just really messed up. I really needed help. I have tried different ways of treatment and have tried tones of various pills and I have to say that Sentia is really one of the best. It influences very softy, doesn't have side effects and I think it really "increases the libido". |
Sentia's sales must have fallen off badly, if its makers don't have any money for a regular ad budget and have to keep spamming this forum. |

Uh for the gal who has bad periods I would say try accupuncture. MY gf finds it is really good for balancing her periods to make them less painful. With regards to pills. She is kinda funny that taking pills she claims makes her tummy weird so is very difficult to do. I ended up going to gaia gardens an online store to get a custom liquid solution of - Damiana 40%, Muira Puama 40%, Schizandara 10% and passion flower 10%. This solution has seemed to make a difference to her that she notices if taking about 8ml 2x a day in liquid form (which she feels is easy to take). Am planning a different solution next time of Damiana 20%, Muira Puama 20%, Schizandra Berry 5%, Ginkgo Biloba 5%, Maca 10%, Tribulus Terrestris 20%, Epimedium 10% and Passion flower 5%. Mainly focussing on libido enhancing herbals. Will post if it is eventually tried... |
eric_oh don't post puzzling massages here please. Ppl here need help and advice. Sentia is just a working drug and that's all. If you have to say something I'll be the first who listens to you. Please say about women pills what you want and what you know. |
What's puzzling (well, not really) is that multiple postings in this thread come off as fake testimonials from the makers/sellers of these potions. If the phraseology isn't obvious enough, many of these messages come from people who registered on the day they posted and have never been heard from again on herbalism or any other subject. The thread is two years old and gets bumped regularly by these posters, assuring that it stays on the front page. Spam is frowned upon, both by GW and forum members. Oh, and welcome to the forum, klav. Hopefully we will hear from you on other subjects besides why we should buy Sentia. |
I don't want to argue. It's just nonsense. It's like to prove that I'm not a camel. Waste of time. |

Well I went to vitamin shop and no one there heard of either Fematril or Sentia so I am trying something called Natural Passion. They said that it has the same effect. I have also learned that some women with a low libido can be caused by stress. |
- Posted by lavinago831 (My Page) on Fri, Aug 17, 07 at 16:40
Hello, I can truly understand where eric-oh is coming from. I'm a little apprehensive myself about these types of threads. But I continue to keep searching hoping to find answers to help my situation. I would like to know the outcome from txfshngwife once you start taking the new product you bought called "Natural Passion". Because you actually were able to find it at a legit vitamin store (Hopefully it's legit). Hopefully I'll remember to look back on this thing to see who responds. Good luck to everyone who is seeking help & please continue to put on here "REAL" helpful solutions. Thanks :-) |

My first concern upon reading this was the drastic weight loss in a short amount of time. When's the last time she had a check-up? Are you SURE she's in good health? Secondly, what medications is she taking currently. Anything that could be causing the loss of sex drive? (Almost every medication on the market has this listed as a possible side effect. Can't help but think it's for a reason.) Damiana is something that I've heard is used successfully, but that's on a case by case basis. Have you considered other things? Possibly accupuncture could help with "closed off areas" and getting her energy back to normal. |
I bought it from ebay and have not taken it. I am also on meds for anxiety and ADD and of course you can not ask the doctor if it's safe because they always say no. I figure with the natural ingredients it should be okay. Does anyone have info about taking it and also taking rx drugs? Thanks |
What supplement are you referring to (a number of them have been mentioned in this thread)? Unfortunately, "natural ingredients" do not guarantee safety (castor beans, jimsonweed and deadly nightshade are examples of "natural" but toxic plants/plant products). Also, apart from their lack of demonstrated efficacy, herbal sexual enhancement products have sometimes been adulterated with prescription medication. Buyer beware. |
Have any of you "poor guys" ever considered that maybe SHE would like to have more of a libido? That maybe it bothers her as much as it bothers you that her sex drive has gone bye bye? Try to be in her shoes and have someone nagging her ALL the time about having sex when she has no desire to have it. Give her a desire and help her out. Not ALL women are just saying that they don't have any desire anymore, I can tell you that 100% so stop whining and try to help her by doing more things around the house so when it comes time to have sex, she doesn't feel exhausted. I do think Fematril is working for me. I do feel I'm having some side effects though, like hot flashes and constipation. I'm on my second bottle and hoping that it will continue to work only a little harder and soon. |
It is true that some herbal supplements for libido have been spiked with generic equivalents of viagra or cialis, but all cases I heard of have been Chinese products from dubious companies. If you buy a ginseng, ashwagandha or epimedium product from a large established company that produces a wide variety of quality herbal products, the risk of that is close to nil. Their business is built on selling exactly what is on the label, and they would damage the company if they sold an adulterated product. Exercise and nutrition are a good place to start. The recent studies on the Mediterranean diet and sexual function were very interesting - women improved their sexual function on the order of 30% over the long run when moving to a more Mediterranean diet. A separate study by the same research team found similar improvements for men with ED. But diet alone may not be enough - for some people, herbs may improve the quality of life. Others may want to use viagra or levitra or cialis. I suspect that people on a herbalism forum are more inclined toward the herbs. I would also disagree with the 'lack of demonstrated efficacy' - for example, there are dozens of studies showing that ginseng increases nitric oxide and alter the cGMP levels in cells in the same manner as patent medicines like viagra. There are plants that contain steroidal saponins, phytoestrogens and phytoandrogens with measurable effects on the body, others that affect oxytocin or GABA in a way that might improve sexual function for some people. And having taken a stiff dose of ginseng myself a few decades ago when I was a skeptic about such things, I can tell you that it can have a pronounced effect. Since then, I've done hundreds of personal research trials to confirm the results. :) A recent study on an extract of dandelion found that it up-regulated the expression of estrogen, progesterone, and FSH receptors in cells, and made animals more responsive to gonadotrophin. Might be beneficial for women experiencing difficulties with menopause, or with other hormone related sexual conditions. But of course, it is all marketing hype and placebo effect - the mice were excited because they THOUGHT they would be sexier, and this changed the results. ;) |

It is good to read that so many other women suffer from low libido and that it is not necessarily all my fault if I can't "come" as my new bf puts it. I have had a low sex drive all my adult life but have also had a lot of stress in my life too. When my marriage broke down 18 years ago I was pregnant and had a 2 yr old. I devoted myself to being a good mother and love and sex were always far from my mind. Recently I decided that I was ready for a relationship again. You would imagine that after 18 years of celibacy I would be rearing to go. Not so! I can't believe I still have trouble getting turned on and I don't think it is because I am just out of practice! So I researched on the Net to find something, anything that may help. I chose Fematril only because there are more web pages devoted to it than anything else. I have been taking them for 2 weeks and I haven't experienced anything akin to feeling sexier. It also made me very sick at first, too, but I found that if I take the pills BEFORE I eat anything I am fine. Also I noticed that about 3 hours after taking them my heart starts beating a lot faster - a feeling that lasts for about an hour. I do not know if this feeling signals a heightened libido (haven't tested it yet) or if the herbs are reacting with my blood pressure medication. However, I feel well in general. It is early days with the Fematril so I will post an update in a month or so. If my libido hasn't improved in two months I will switch to Sentia. I hope it all works out - it is very expensive to import such medication into Australia, but I am really desperate. I don't want to ruin my sex life before it even begins! |

Chinese products are good for Chinese that is a fact. They have other living conditions. So if you are Chinese, eat Chinese supplements. I can't understand why you are looking for supplements if you know about Sentia. Sentia proved to be very effective. I personally have tried it and I have very high libido at 43. |
I'm 28, married for 7 years, stressful job, long hours --> low libido. I tried Fematril for a few weeks. It did nothing for me but constipation. And what kind of libido can you expect when you're constipated? Zero. I threw away the remaining pills and felt better immediately. I would not recommend Fematril to anyone. |
Hello everyone, Has anyone tried Sentia? It seemed to be the winning vote? Its kind of toucy with my partner and i'd rather try it first and see if it works. |

For those seriously wanting to help themselves or their wives (they should be online posting)try going to Power Surge...link below. It is for peri-menopause and menopause but you'll find so much information on this subject and experts that truly know what they are talking about. I'm not associated with them at all by the way. Hormones are nothing to fool with- plus most remedies/supplements take time to work just like medications. Secondly--- PLEASE be careful with drug interaction! Herbs are still drugs in the sense that they can react with meds you are taking. Research this-- don't just assume it's safe, or ignore side effects. |

i must make a comment on the earlier posts about checking hormones and etc...i will be the first to admit to use all natural or herbal thing as much as possible. but in all reality it is very important to know what you are dealing w/ first and then make the best discission for your situtation.in these kind of situtation it can be a dangerous thing. there are many thing that can cause issues such as what being mention. be careful . NO WHAT YOU ARE DEALING W/ FIRST. |
I vote for Sentia too. I don't know nothing about other supplements, but Sentia was good for me. I had probs with lubricant (so-called "painful-sex-problem"), which were solved successfully. |

"Horny Goat Weed" has been around for some 2000 years has anyone got some first hand info on this? I should say, has any "Herbal" individual got first hand info on this. |
>> "Horny Goat Weed" has been around for some 2000 years has anyone got some first hand info on this? I should say, has any "Herbal" individual got first hand info on this. Yes, and it has real effects. It blocks the phosphodiesterase enzymes, increases nitric oxide, and affects cGMP balance (which is how the blue pill works), and it has other beneficial effects on nitric oxide and blood circulation. IMO, it is generally milder than prescription alternatives, but probably similar (although it is hard for me to compare them experientially, as I have not gotten any prescriptions). FWIW, I prefer taking a single herb or extract, sold by a company that has a wide range of herbal products, where they make no claims about the product other than the ingredients. Many of the companies that make only heroic bedroom athlete products have obviously inflated claims and I personally don't trust such businesses - I don't see them as legitimate herbalists; they are often people whose only concern is quick profit. |

I tried Femtril and it gave me diahrea so bad I was sick for days. Just thought I would tell you. It might be good to have your wife tested for testosterone by the doctor and see if she can get a cream/base testosterone for her level... |
I have tried this product and I will not recommend it. First day, I felt high for about an hour, second day I had a headache until I took it again, then diarrhea for two days.I did not feel pain as I had before, but I could not feel my husband I felt numb inside. This product, I believe has a placebo effect (no medical purpose,if you truly believe it will work then it will) like sugar pills to treat arthritis.It does not "Put you in the mood" so many believe it will (me included)it is no Viagra for women as it was claimed to be. The 4 to 6 wks to have full effect is convenient, considering you have a 30 day money back guarantee,by the time you figure out that it does not work it is to late for a refund. That is only my opinion though. |
"This product, I believe has a placebo effect (no medical purpose,if you truly believe it will work then it will)" This overstates the placebo effect. If you take a placebo thinking it will work, it's more likely to have an effect (at least over a short term period) than if you're profoundly skeptical about it. On the other hand, it's not going to work just because you believe it will. |

"Good going in, problems coming out
" by Ms Drumm
I used these corks on three different batches of wine last year. Using them with the Lakeland corker was easy. However, so far I have opened three bottles from two of the batches and had problems with each bottle. In all cases the corks broke as I tried to open the bottles. Maybe have been unlucky, but I think I'll be trying an alternative after this.
A note from the team: Thanks for placing your review. We're sorry for the problem you're having taking the corks out of the bottles and will be in touch shortly to help.
"Don't buy these corks! :-(
" by Miss lodwig
Firstly, I love Lakeland and buy lots of lovely things from them. Sadly, these corks are not up to their usual standard. We made out first wine this year....from organic strawberries grown by me and lovingly mashed, fermented and racked. I am pretty gutted that the 5 bottles we have tried to open were all spoiled as the corks simply disintegrated. There is nothing we can do..except put the wine through muslin before serving. And that doesn't do anything for the 3 bottles we gave away as presents. Very poor quality and ruined our lovely wine. So sorry Lakeland but you need to stop selling these

The upcoming issue of Education Next (which Fordham sponsors) reveals that "Almost 96 percent of the public underestimate either per-pupil spending in their districts or teacher salaries in their states." In fact, they vastly underestimate these figures:
The average respondent surveyed in 2007 thought per-pupil spending in their district was just $4,231 dollars, even though the actual average spending per pupil among districts was $10,377 in 2005 (the most recent year for which data are available).
On average, the public underestimated average teacher salaries in their own state by $14,370. The average estimate among survey respondents was $33,054, while average teacher salary nationally in 2005 was actually $47,602.
Obviously troubling, considering how frequently exaggerated claims about funding are invoked in ed policy debates.
Checker writes about the twenty-fifth anniversary of A Nation at Risk in the Wall Street Journal and the Gadfly. He also talked about it last week on "America's Business with Mike Hambrick," a radio show associated with the National Association of Manufacturers:
Sunday's New York Times Magazine features an article on K-12 arts education. The piece sets out to refute Obama's evidently misleading claims that teaching the arts leads to improved student performance on standardized tests.
There is indeed a correlation between, for example, how many years students spend in arts classes and their SAT scores; more art, higher scores. But that doesn't prove that it's the added exposure to the arts that boosts verbal or math performance. Another study shows that students who take more courses in any subject do better on the SAT. Meanwhile, a British study found the opposite: the more arts classes students took, the worse they did on their national exams. A more plausible explanation, Winner speculates, may be that academically motivated students in the U.S. gravitate to the arts, eager to show supercompetitive colleges they aren't just grinds who do well on their SATs. In England, it's weaker students who are steered onto the arts track.
Fair enough, but there are more important reasons to teach kids about art and music. As Checker and (Fordham board member) Diane Ravitch argued in the Wall Street Journal last year, the breadth of our curricular offerings allows us to "acquire qualities and abilities that aren't easily 'outsourced' to Guangzhou or Hyderabad."
Indeed, the iPod, Google, Hollywood--these world-beating American icons sprouted from fertile minds that, though they certainly benefited from some technical know-how, would never have found proper nourishment in a drill-and-kill, math-and-science-only environment. Are we...
In today's Wall Street Journal, Checker wishes A Nation at Risk a happy twenty-fifth.
Science writer Jonah Lehrer on algebra: "Abstract concepts, untethered to experience, are never internalized by our neurons."
Or are they?
Vouchers will be on the ballot in Florida in November.
Several people questioned my argument the other day that bad ideas tend to flow from higher education to our K-12 education system (e.g., here and here). I would encourage ambitious readers find a way to access this longer piece by Checker and see if they still doubt the trickle-down theory.
I also argued that now a bad idea is flowing in the opposite direction--the hyper-unionization of the workforce. But the good folks at the American Federation of Teachers' "FACE Talk" blog raised a red flag about my insinuation that a unionized workforce is a new development in higher education:
Higher education, including graduate employees, have been forming unions for the purpose of collective bargaining for nearly 40 years. There was a notable acceleration of that effort in the '80s and '90s as more and more TAs and RAs were being employed to teach undergraduate courses. As a result (and I don't mean to scare you Mike), there are now over 40,000 graduate employees represented by unions, which actually represents a significant portion of that workforce.
Actually, this does scare me... and goes a long way to explaining why college tuition is soaring. But point taken; I'll try to stick closer to my K-12 beat from now on. Still, this line of theirs caught my eye:
Oh, and by the way, that level of unionization is true for faculty and staff in higher education as well.
Are they saying that...
Speaking of legal issues in schools.... According to Education Week:
A federal appeals court has ordered an Illinois school district to allow a student to wear a T-shirt proclaiming "Be Happy, Not Gay" to protest a high school event meant to promote tolerance of gay students.
First, one struggles to understand Judge Posner's thinking when he writes, "???Be Happy, Not Gay' is only tepidly negative; 'derogatory' or 'demeaning' seems too strong a characterization." Seems that "derogatory" exactly describes such a slogan. Is a sartorial expression of "Be Happy. Not Italian" (or whatever) similarly "tepidly negative"?
Possibly it is by Judge Posner's thinking, which he elucidated in his decision by writing, "People do not have a legal right to prevent criticism of their beliefs or, for that matter, their way of life." One suspects that lots of people wouldn't classify homosexuality as a belief, akin to Christianity or global warming or that Miley Cyrus is better than Bach, but as an immutable thing--like skin-color or ethnicity. It's good to protect everyone's right to challenge beliefs, generally speaking.??But should students have a protected right, in school, to challenge the validity of another student's being?
Second, and more importantly: Why is Judge Posner even bothering with this? Why is any judge? The answer, of course, is that Tinker established all sorts of k-12 student rights that make it incredibly difficult for administrators to exercise authority on their campuses without ending up in court. A far better route, the...
Coby's latest spark--that students (or their parents) who rated their teachers online could provide useful feedback--is intriguing. He's right that such k-12 rating websites exist (see here) but haven't reached a critical mass of users. Even if they did, though,??the whole idea has a major drawback: This.
What is fair criticism and what is insult? What is fair moderating and what is censorship? Do we really want to inject more of this legal mish-mash into the school day?
Eduwonkette flatters us. Unfortunately, Mike can't carry a tune, and he's just too damn honest to lip-sync.

The Chesterfield County/Colonial Heights Crime Solvers program needs your help to identify and locate suspects involved with vandalisms at two local schools.
Between the evening of Thursday, Nov. 10, and the morning of Friday, Nov. 11, someone vandalized two classroom trailers and a drivers education vehicle at Thomas Dale High School, 3626 W. Hundred Road. The vandals broke several windows out on the classroom trailers and caused extensive damage to the drivers education vehicle by breaking out several of the windows, removing parts and damaging the exterior of the vehicle. Later, the vandals went to Curtis Elementary School, 3600 W. Hundred Road, and damaged several buses parked at the school. Together, the vandalisms at the two schools are estimated to have caused several thousands of dollars in damages.

Glen Town Center to get new businesses in 2014
Patrons of the Glen Town Center can expect a few new options for dining and activities in the New Year.
Mingle Juice Shop, The Curragh Irish Pub & Restaurant, a burger joint called Mooyah and a Pinot's Palette location are scheduled to open in Glenview's retail center in 2014, said Tom Sikoral, senior manager of the Glen Town Center.
"The economy is turning in the right direction," Sikoral said. "It's been great to see the interest that we have seen."
The Glenview town center's occupancy rate now is a little more than 90 percent, Sikoral said. He added that the center is also working with two other potential businesses.
The Curragh, which also has locations in Chicago, Skokie and Holland, Mich., is supposed to open first in late January, Sikoral said.
Pinot's Pallet, a painting franchise that combines art and wine appreciation, is going to start operating next around Feb. 14.
Mooyah, a Texas-based burger chain, and Mingle Juice Shop, a local venture, are to open their doors in spring.
Mari Sokolowski, owner of the Glenview Pinot's Palette, said she is excited to open up her business in the Glen.
"The Glen was always one of my top locations," said Sokolowski, who has been working on securing space on the North Shore since the beginning of 2013.
The establishment combines art and wine appreciation through painting classes, and it would become one of about 60 franchise locations of Pinot's Palette, which originated in Houston, Texas.
Sokolowski, who is also a franchise development director for Pinot's Palette, said the company is looking to open about six to eight locations in total in the Chicago area. One location in Naperville recently opened already. "It's really relaxing, and it's a fun time," said Sokolowski of Pinot's Palette's offerings.
She commended the Village of Glenview employees and the Glen Town Center management for their help in the establishment of her business. She added that the village had to create a separate category for liquor licenses in order to accommodate Pinot's Palette.
Leslie Mendoza Temple, a co-owner of Mingle Juice Shop, said she's also excited to join the Glen Town Center.
"We want to expose people to this great practice of eating healthy," said Mendoza Temple, who has been working as a holistic physician for about seven years. "It's more than being trendy."
A Highland Park resident, Mendoza Temple said she wanted to open the shop in Highland Park originally but decided to grab space at the Glen instead.
"It's an awesome location for our business," she said.
The shop, which is going to offer juices made from organic and local fruits and vegetables, is scheduled to open up in March of 2014, she said.
Glenview resident Doris Appel, who lives in The Glen, said she is glad to see new businesses come into the area.
But she said she would like to see more retail stores.
"It'd be great to have more shopping options," said Appel, who has been living in Glenview with her family for about 10 years.
She said she would in particular welcome a cookware store or a clothing store.

Bringing Money, Power to S. African Blacks
New head of nation's development agencies aims to ensure that economic empowerment accompanies freedom. PROFILE
WISEMAN NKUHLU has a mission to empower the poor and powerless.
"Political liberation will not mean much to the man in the street," says Professor Nkuhlu, "unless it can deliver housing, jobs, skills, and participation in small-to-medium-sized business activity." Nkuhlu, South Africa's first black chartered accountant and a former university head, this month became the country's most powerful player on the socioeconomic development scene.
Nkuhlu is the new chief executive of the Independent Development Trust (IDT), the country's primary development agency, mandated to help the poor by providing grants for utilities and schools and by undoing the legacy of apartheid in the development field.
Last November, he was appointed chairman of the Development Bank of Southern Africa (DBSA), an apartheid-linked development agency in the vital area of providing such services as roads, water, and rural electrification.
He is the first black South African to occupy either post and the first person to hold both positions simultaneously. They are the country's two major development agencies and command access to some $3 billion in resources.
Many of his colleagues say he has taken on a superhuman workload, but they point to his remarkable ability to deliver.
"You cannot just talk about transformation," Nkuhlu told the Monitor in a wide-ranging interview in his IDT office on the slopes of Table Mountain. "You have to make it happen."
The organizations he heads "belong to all the people," he says. "They are national assets. I will be giving high priority to heightening the involvement of disadvantaged communities in the creation of development programs."
"It is essential to involve the community at all stages of a project and allow the community to elect their own leaders to run the project," he adds.
His daily schedule would stagger a seasoned corporate executive: For starters, he must fly to the DBSA in Pretoria for two days a week. He is a hand-picked guest at intimate dinners for African National Congress (ANC) President Nelson Mandela. He is looked upon as a close ally of the rival Pan Africanist Congress (PAC). And he is frequently called in by President Frederik de Klerk for consultations on development issues.

We haven't had a showing in about 3 weeks, and our realtor called today to schedule a showing - Whoo Hoo! There are 4 houses for sale in our neighborhood and two just recently went under contract.

Three problems related to power steering fluid have been reported for the 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee.
The contact owns a 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that the vehicle was leaking power steering fluid. As a result, the vehicle jerked while turning left or right. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 32,000.
We had noticed a small puddle of fluid in our garage and took car to be serviced at Jeep. They said it was transmission fluid and fixed the problem. Next day we drove 500 miles to oliver bc and when we stopped the car, we noticed a larger puddle of red fluid from the left front area under car. The car was difficult to steer and realized it must be power steering fluid that was leaking. We took it to a dealer in pentiction, bc and they said that there was no power steering fluid left in the system. They "located power steering leak, as clamp was not released, they released clamp, cleaned off the fluids, refilled reservoir, road tested and no leaks. " we then drove another 300 miles to our destination and have not had any leaks and the power steering seems fine. We just bought the car in may and it only has 2100 miles on it.
The contact owns a 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that while driving approximately 1 mph in the driveway, a loud noise emitted from outside of the vehicle and suddenly the steering wheel became difficult to turn. The contact noticed an excessive amount of steering fluid leaking onto the ground. The vehicle was towed to an authorized dealer, where the power steering hose was reconnected. The malfunction recurred twice and each time the vehicle was towed to the dealer. There were other repairs performed at different times, which consisted of replacing the power steering pump and cooler. In addition, the power steering rack and hoses were replaced. The manufacturer was notified of the problem. There was currently an open investigation under NHTSA action number pe12020 (steering:hydraulic power assist:hose, piping, and connections). The manufacturer was notified of the defect. The approximate failure mileage was 3,000.

Kansas City, KS United States
DLR Group
Due to the growing student population in the Piper Unified School District No. 203, Piper High School in Kansas City, Kan. recently underwent a large-scale renovation and addition. DLR Group's design solution incorporates sunshading, daylighting, graphic design and space-utilization to create a unique, 21st century learning environment. To promote school spirit and create an easily identifiable main entrance area, the school's mascot, a pirate, was etched into GKD's Omega 1510 woven mesh fabric.
Design architect Ken Graham, AIA, LEED AP, with DLR Group worked with GKD-USA to develop an aesthetically pleasing entryway that would become the focal point of the building- capable of providing sun shading and daylighting. Graham selected Omega 1510, a stainless steel woven mesh fabric from GKD, based on its durability, sustainable attributes and aesthetics.
"A school building shouldn't just be about functionality; it should have personality," said Graham. "The building itself should be a place where creativity and excitement are fostered and encouraged. We wanted to use a material that would help bring the building life by providing contrast and a more refined image."
Making up the 520-square-foot stainless steel woven mesh facade are two panels: one is 14 feet wide and 15 feet high; the other 18 feet wide by 16 feet high. The mesh, installed using tensioned panels pulled taught with rods and custom eyebolts on the top and bottom, is flexible in one direction and rigid in the other. Using a special process, the image of the pirate was applied to the mesh fabric and then etched into the steel. Because of the detail in the image, the process was fairly time consuming.
"Etching and installation took about three months; start to finish," said Jeff Abbott, GKD-USA project liaison. "Over time the image will darken, which will enhance the clarity of the pirate. This innovative graphic presentation makes Piper High School unique from other buildings of its kind."
Beyond the need for sunshading that the stainless-steel mesh provided, the durability, longevity and maintenance-free nature of the Omega 1510 mesh facade were major factors in the decision to use this product. The mesh facade also glows as a lantern in the nighttime, serving the dual function of sunshading in the day and lighting for evening events.
The project team was able to meet the challenge of renovating with a low budget, while incorporating a range of sustainable elements. The Omega 1510 allowed for a visual graphic to be presented at the front of the school with no long-term maintenance costs.
"The design is one-of-a-kind and the ability to use the mesh as sunshading for the entry added to the school's overall sustainability goals," Graham commented. "The mesh provides both visibility and filters day light, which when combined with the clerestory of glass we incorporated, eliminates the need for artificial lighting in the commons area during the day."
Renovations to Piper High School were completed in August 2009.
