Hair Loss
General Information on Male Hair Loss and Hair Transplant
Some hairs are more affected than others during the miniaturization, and not all men experience this phase the same way. Some men experience it as early as their twenties, while some experience it only well into their seventies. The reason is a complex interaction between the male hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT), inherited genes, and age.
Male hormones DHT develop during puberty and can cause follicles to eventually wither and die. Each follicle of hair on the human scalp is genetically programmed before birth to either become sensitive to it or not, making some men suffer hair loss more excessively than others.
How Hairlab Can Help You With Your Hair Loss Problems
Lifelong hair follicles are abundant in all men, even those who are already severely bald. These follicles can be found on the "donor area", which is commonly the horseshoe shaped area at the very back of the head. Complete with the follicles, hair can be taken from this area and relocated to the thinning or bald areas of a person's head.
Los Angeles hair transplant facilities such as Hairlab can safely conduct this type surgical transplanting with relative ease. The complexity of the procedure comes with the artistic demands our surgeon must meet to make sure the transplant looks great and natural on the patient.
Hair transplantation is an art in itself, recreating a brand new hairline that complements your facial features, age, and lifestyle. Of course, it is initially up to you to approve the solution your chosen hair transplant clinic recommends, and it will serve as the guide in establishing your new hair line.
When you opt to receive hair transplantation, our doctors will evaluate your donor area and choose a fitting texture to use as grafts. These grafts are expertly transplanted in proper position, at a precise angle that duplicates your scalp's natural growth pattern.
We conclude the restoration process by carefully checking that your newly-placed hairs will grow together to form a hairline that is virtually undetectable with your original hair. The follicular units grow in naturally occurring units of 1, 2, 3 and 4 hair groups.

My nephew was just told that his premature infant has low set ears, droopy eyes, underdeveloped kidneys and inflamed lungs. This was most of the information I was given. He and his wife were also told that survival in infants with this condition, mostly in Caucasian males and African American females, is usually no more than two to two and a half months.
They didn't mention the name of the condition, but Trisomy sure sounds close. If someone could give me any feedback, I would appreciate it. I'm just trying to understand what might be going on so I can be more supportive.

St John's, Antigua – The West Indies Cricket Board today confirmed that Chief Executive Officer Dr. Ernest Hilaire had advised, at a meeting of the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors, in April this year that he will not be seeking a renewal of his three year contract when it comes to an end.
KINGSTON, Jamaica, CMC – West Indies have named an unchanged side for the third Digicel One-Day International against New Zealand starting Wednesday at Warner Park in St Kitts.
This comes after the Windies took a crucial 2-0 lead in the five-match series with a handy 55-run win over the Black Caps at Sabina Park here on Saturday. Last Thursday, they won the opener by nine wickets at the same venue.
St George's, Grenada, Jul 1, CMC – Rain has washed out the third and final Digicel one-dayer between West Indies A and India A at the National Stadium on Sunday.
Overnight and early morning rain continued well into the afternoon and umpires Vincent Bullen and Goaland Greaves were left with little choice but to call off the contest without a ball bowled.
The series finished tied 1-1 after West Indies A won the first match by two wickets last Wednesday and India captured the second by 108 runs two days later.
ST GEORGE'S, Grenada, CMC – A shocking batting collapse sent West Indies A tumbling to a disappointing 108-run defeat in the second Digicel One-Dayer on Friday, allowing India A to level the three-match series at 1-1.
Chasing 185 for victory, West Indies A never recovered from the loss of two wickets in the first over and were bundled out for 76 off 27.1 overs at the National Stadium.
Fort Lauderdale, Florida – Richie Richardson believes cricket in the United States could be in for "something special" this weekend when his West Indies face New Zealand to bowl off the Digicel Series. The former West Indies captain, now Team Manager, is expecting to see a lot of "familiar faces" in the crowd when the West Indies embark on their American journey.

ENERGY EFFECT: Consortium hails oil boom
West Texans gather to share growth plans
BIG SPRING — Audience members cheered as Bernard Weinstein, associate director of the Maguire Energy Institute, displayed a graph showing the U.S. is the worldwide leader in barrels of oil equivalent per day in petroleum and natural gas production.
"We're No. 1," Weinstein said emphatically. "This is an exciting time. We're No. 1, Texas is No. 1, the Permian Basin is No. 1 — that's a good place to be."
In Texas "the Permian Basin is still the Big Kahuna," he said.
Weinstein, who also teaches at the Cox School of Business at Southern Methodist University in Dallas, was one of many economic experts to speak at Tuesday's inaugural meeting of the West Texas Energy Consortium at Howard College.
More than 200 people attended, traveling from all over West Texas. Among them were state Rep. Drew Darby, representatives for Sen. Robert Duncan, San Angelo City Manager Daniel Valenzuela and other local leaders.
Tom Tunstall, research director at the Institute for Economic Development and the University of Texas at San Antonio, delivered the keynote address. Tunstall, who conducted several economic impact and workforce studies of the Eagle Ford Shale, presented initial findings on the study that the West Texas Energy Consortium commissioned.
The consortium was organized by Workforce Solutions boards in the Concho Valley, West Central Texas and Permian Basin regions.
"There's a slow trendline in terms of growth," Tunstall said, indicating a graph of economic growth associated with the oil and gas industry in West Texas. "We haven't seen the inflection point yet."
The study looked at trends from 2012 to create an economic impact forecast through 2022. It focuses on the oil and gas industry in a 10-county core that includes Glasscock, Reagan, Irion and Sterling counties. The study also analyzes indirect economic impact of oil and gas activities that spill into a neighboring six-county area, which includes Coke, Coleman, Runnels and Tom Green counties.
Although growth has been modest and estimates conservative, Tunstall noted that once oil companies figured out "where the sweet spots were" in the Eagle Ford Shale, economic impact jumped from $25 billion in 2011 to $61 billion in 2011 in the 20-county area of that study.
"It could go from steady growth to something much more exponential in nature," Tunstall said.
Luke Legate, spokesman for the Joint Oil and Gas Education Initiative Association, followed Tunstall's address and applauded the consortium for trying to stay ahead of the industry and encouraging regional collaboration.
"You're positioned well to handle some of this growth," Legate said. "Open communication between the industry and a community is vital."
Legate emphasized the importance of planning, so communities can harness the development and the challenges that come with it, such as increased needs in public safety, traffic infrastructure and water.
Having a unified voice can help rural communities tell state lawmakers which areas to put money toward, Legate said.
He added that the oil industry increasingly is moving toward water recycling and using nonpotable or brackish water.
"The industry does have a financial incentive to use less water," Legate said, as companies want to save on hauling costs. "The industry is looking to innovate. You'll see more and more use recycling."
Some have begun to explore the use of synthetic gels instead of water, he said.
Also speaking on regional collaboration was Arleene Loyd, director of business retention and expansion for Odessa Economic Development, who led one of the conference's afternoon breakout sessions.
Loyd is trying to gather feedback and information from West Texas communities to collect on one website that businesses can use to access information about a city or county.
"Businesses go into the website. ... They try to work around the city government," Loyd said.
She envisions a single website that contains or directs businesses to comprehensive information about each community, such as demographics, apartment surveys, directories of local officials and zoning maps.
Loyd also stressed the importance of communities sharing best practices and sample ordinances with each other to collectively prepare for the growth.
"You want to have the policies in place," Loyd said, showing Colorado City's recreational vehicle park ordinance, written by Brownwood's city attorney, as an example. "If you're not crazy about that, then you need to write guidelines now."
Speaking on the shale formations in West Texas, Tunstall said drilling a horizontal well has gotten cheaper, at $6 million to $8 million per well, whereas it used to cost $10 million to $12 million per well.
"The shale in West Texas is different than the Bakken Shale," he said. "It's not continuous. It's gooier but deeper."
Although it was difficult to make natural gas price forecasts in the past, Tunstall said prices have stabilized more recently. Prices bottomed out at $2 per thousand cubic feet in 2012, but are predicted to stabilize at $4 to $7 per thousand cubic feet in the next decade or so, Tunstall said. A cubic foot of space holds about 7.48 gallons.
Speaking on energy independence, Tunstall said for the first time since 1995 the U.S. has reached a point where it's producing more oil than it is importing.
"Texas is producing more oil than it has in 30 years," he said.
About 46 percent of the nation's energy production comes from four states, Weinstein said: Colorado, North Dakota, Texas and Wyoming. However, with the increase of production comes the increase of pushback, Weinstein said.
"There's going to be more and more local concern with the good, the bad and the ugly," Weinstein said. "Texas is not immune from what I call the 'anti-fossil fuel group.' "
About 6 million people in Texas live within a mile of an oil or gas well, which is about 1 in 4 people, Weinstein said.
He added that federal entities, such as the Environmental Protection Agency, are trying to take over oil and gas regulation.
"There's no evidence the states are doing a poor job," Weinstein said.
Weinstein and other experts agreed that negatives — such as increased crime, traffic and strain on infrastructure — are inevitable, but they are manageable if communities plan ahead.
"Some communities say, 'Not in my backyard,'" Loyd said. "It will be in your backyard, so you need to make a plan for it. If it's not in your backyard, it's going to be in your neighbor's backyard."

Cicely Tyson, who returned to Broadway this season for the first time in 30 years, took home the Tony Award for best leading actress in a play on Sunday night in New York.
In Horton Foote's "The Trip to Bountiful," Tyson plays a widow in 1953 whose only desire is to revisit her old home in Bountiful and recapture purpose she lost when she left for Houston.
Tyson beat out Laurie Metcalf, Amy Morton, Kristine Nielsen and Holland Taylor. She gave a long acceptance speech and was cut off by music. "'Please wrap it up,' it says," Tyson said, referring to the teleprompter. "Well, that's exactly what you did with me: You wrapped me up in your arms after 30 years."
Tyson was nominated for an Oscar for her role in "Sounder" in 1972. Other film credits include "Fried Green Tomatoes," ''Bustin' Loose" and "Jefferson in Paris."
She won Emmys for "The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman" and "Oldest Living Confederate Widow Tells All." She was also nominated for her role in the miniseries "Roots."

Pretty Pro-CCW words from the DA in the great communist state of Ka. Maybe attitudes everywhere are changing.The El Dorado County District Attorney's Office has identified the 33-year-old man who the DA said was responsible for Sunday's stabbing rampage which left one man dead and one man wounded as Behnam Pazoki.
Pazoki, who family members described as mentally ill, was visiting relatives in El Dorado Hills on Sunday when he grabbed a kitchen knife and chased terrified relatives into the street. During the rampage, which occurred on the 1000 block of Venezia Drive, Pazoki stabbed Vahid Seyedin, 47, the owner of the home he was staying at, and killed his uncle Ahmad Pazeky, 58, according the El Dorado County Sheriff's Office.
Pazoki was ultimately shot by a neighbor, Shahin Kohan, 47, who witnessed the attack and came to the family's aid armed with a handgun, sheriffs said.
In a press release issued today, the district attorney's office said that after Kohan warned Pazoki to stop, Pazoki turned his attention to him and other neighbors that had gathered around watching the horror unfold.
"Mr. Kohan's actions directly prevented other people and himself from being seriously injured or killed," the release said.
El Dorado County District Attorney Vern Pierson called Kohan's actions heroic in the release.
""All too often the term hero is applied to situations where it is inappropriate...," Pierson said in the release. "Mr. Kohan was a bystander whose quick action, done at great risk to him, likely saved lives and certainly prevented additional injuries. Mr. Kohan, by any definition, is in fact a hero."
Sheriff's Deputies briefly detained Kohan on murder charges following the incident, but quickly released him after the facts of the case were reviewed.
I am not sure about all states, but I know here in CT deadly force is authorized to protect a 3rd party from deadly force or imminent great bodily harm:
So hopefully someone who committed a similar act here in CT would not be charged either. The story does say that the BG turned his attentions on the shooter and the crowd, so it isn't exactly clear who the BG was coming after when he was stopped.Sec. 53a-19. Use of physical force in defense of person. (a) Except as provided in subsections (b) and (c) of this section, a person is justified in using reasonable physical force upon another person to defend himself or a third person from what he reasonably believes to be the use or imminent use of physical force, and he may use such degree of force which he reasonably believes to be necessary for such purpose; except that deadly physical force may not be used unless the actor reasonably believes that such other person is (1) using or about to use deadly physical force, or (2) inflicting or about to inflict great bodily harm.

Review: Minecraft for Mac mines out your time and sleep
Like its Windows and Xbox counterpart, Mojang's original pixel-grinder is still addictive for the open-world gamer.
Minecraft for Mac is a time-sucking, mind-bending, and sleep-depriving experience. It hits the right tune on the subject of creation: it really does provide building blocks for your imagination.
Minecraft has no real direction, anchoring plot, or specific guidelines. Players are dropped into a world with only the ability to carve out resources from the surrounding land.
The game's outdated graphics won't really distract you from the game's core focus on building. Soon you'll find out that as it gets dark, lounging around with a pickaxe probably won't do you any good against the pixelated zombies, monsters, and other creepy critters after you.
Minecraft's central focus is in crafting tools and collecting resources to build just about whatever you want. Whether it's crafting more powerful weapons to fend off creatures of the night or building that mega fortress to mock other miners in the open world, you're still going to need the precise raw materials. Make no mistake: this game is a grinder. But after toiling for hours and hours, finally stumbling upon that precious material you need is a priceless moment in its own right.
Don't rely on Majong's limited provisions to learn the ropes of the game. Instead, I recommend scouting the Net for community made guides: there's a plethora of custom guides out there that will help you get the most out of this game. And really, that limit is all up to you.
If you simply want to focus on building and avoid the hassle of defending your fortress, then Creative mode is for you. In this mode, you have unrestricted access to all the building blocks and tools needed to build the structure or statue of your dreams -- plus the ability to fly for kicks.
If you're uncomfortable with lack of direction, then this game isn't for you. But when it comes to open-world gameplay and mechanics, Minecraft is a primitive but fine demonstration of thriving on bare-bones gaming. Grab an ax and start digging.

Write a ReviewDifferent than chrome
By Susan A. from Frederica, DE on Oct 15, 2010
Practical, Stylish
I wish I had known more about the difference between polished nickel and chrome. I have them next to chrome mirrors and they look a little yellowish which I found out after the fact is a major difference of the metals. Chrome is blue while nickel is yellow. Some might not mind. Other than that, I like the lamps. They look high end.

Adaptable Kichler barrel sconce

While these lights look pretty and function well after about 3 months I notice they are tarnished and have a very yellow appearance. No longer shiny.

Great looking fixture. Not very bright, however, probably due to the frosted glass. We wanted to install the fixture with the light hanging down. Description says you can do this and they include the adapters.
However, the instructions are wrong. You must flip the "socket ring" and install LAST, not first.

Chris brown needs a girl that loves what he do....who can have time for him someone he can take on the road with him or when he's gone doesnt habe to worry about who hit that! someone who looks like a lady but not afraid to hang up her dress and put away her heels and put on some nikes and basketball shorts and hoop with him. he needs someone who understands his artistic ways and MOST IMPORTANTLY CAN KEEP UP WITH HIM ON THE DANCE FLOOR HE NEEDS A GIRL LIKE ME LOL........

hey im new but you know chris needs to stay away from Rihanna I love her but its just not right when she through all of that stuff taking him to court im just like what is this they're back together OOOOOHHHHH HEEEELLL NO like Rihanna is just toooo much and she says how she loves him and blah blah blah and she wants to be with him and im like what is she talking about his fans love him more thn you rihanna I love you girl but you need to back off before us fans get you for all that lying
Chris has plenty of time to find the right woman. For right now he should enjoy life and not get too stuck on one female. That way, when he's older he'll know exactly what he needs when he's ready to settle down.
Totally agree. Apparently, Chris agrees with you too. Let her swim in her own pool of misery. He knows way better now.
I think your right! i have ALWYAS thought that! i honestly think that she is a BAD influence on him and as a true fan he would be better off by just foucusing on his music instead of rihanna wasting his time!
hey I don't care who you wit my daughter is #1 team BREEZY AND WOULD LOVE FOR YOU TO SURPRISE HER SHE LOVES YOU N WOULD LOVE TO MET YOU IF WE CAN MAKE THAT HAPPEN SHOOT ME A EMAIL.

Remember yesterday, when I said I suspected "In Treatment" without the original Israeli scripts would probably be much less confrontational? Ya, so, I'm officially taking that back now.
For the first time in the history of the show Paul has actually said to a patient "don't speak to me like that." This to Jesse, a gay, adopted 16 year old Paul has been seeing for a while. Jesse (Dane DeHaan) has told Paul to "put his dick back in his pants" after Paul has expressed concern about Jesse's relationship with two older men. A lean, skittish, slutty provocateur, Jesse seems to be fueled by a diet of Adderall and negative attention. He's recently been selling his Adderall, so he's now coming off a bad behavior binge. By the end of the episode we will discover the trigger. Earlier this week Jesse received a phone message from his birth mother.
Every season "In Treatment" has an ingenue part with a young actor whose career is obviously on the rise. In season 1 it was Mia Wasikowska as the acerbically funny, suicidal gymnast, Sophie. In season 2 it was Alison Pill as April, the rigidly independent architecture student with cancer. This season it's DeHaan. In the space of half an hour, I feel like I've watched about three different performances while sipping a genetic cocktail made of two parts James Franco, one part Angelina Jolie and a dash of Justin Bieber. I mention Jolie because there's something very reminiscent here of her break out performance in "Girl Interrupted." Jesse is a hurtling hellball of charisma and pain. One minute he's the geeky hipster too in love with the expensive camera, given to him by someone, he doesn't remember whom. The next he's curled up on the couch, staring out with the eyes of a suicidal nympho. Finally he's the faux sophisticated adopted kid with a fantasy life about a birth father in Doctor's Without Borders and a birth mother who he long ago decided was a crack whore. If J.T. Leroy, the teenage truck stop prostitute/literary hoax, still existed, I'd expect to find that name in the writing credits this week.
In the next episode "Adele: Week 1" Paul describes the frustration of treating Jesse. "There are times in that room where I really feel we connect. And then he goes back into the world, the real world, and he implodes, and everything we've done together, it's just gone." By the end of this week it looks like Paul may start feeling this way about his own two decades of therapy with Gina.
Adele is Paul's new psychiatrist who he has come to for an Ambien refill. Is there an actress on the planet right now more astonishingly versatile than Amy Ryan? As we know from her performance in "Gone Baby Gone", if Jesse's mother did turn out to be a crackwhore, Ryan could have played her. She's been brilliantly understated in "The Wire", and hilariously loopy in "The Office." Now she's the humorless, but razor sharp psychiatrist about to make Paul and Gina look like a couple of ageing life coaches from the Omega institute.
In his final session with Gina last season, Paul described his crisis of faith in the therapeutic process as "two mice stuck in a glue trap." The almost blinding brightness of Adele's office compared to Paul's is obviously designed so that we may compare them both as analysts and rodents. He describes his own office as a mole cave. This also sets up his persistent burrowing technique against her quick vermin attack and retreat style. It also serves to make Ryan's skin look especially pink. With her petite, but sharp features she comes off as a lab rat with a 195 I.Q.
Paul needles her about her youth and lack of experience compared to he and Gina, who he describes as the best analyst on the East Coast. Adele responds: "I just want to make sure I understand something. You say Gina Toll was your teacher. And then she was your supervisor. And after that your analyst. And she also saw you and your ex-wife as a couples therapist..." She lets out the next words, "I see." as a knowing sigh.
Paul is outraged. "What do you mean 'you see'? What are you implying?"
"I'm not implying anything" Adele insists. "I'm just trying to understand the methods of one of the best analysts on the East Coast."
"Are you fucking kidding me!" Paul slams back. "What are you 36 years old? You've been practicing for three or four years at the most. Who the fuck are you to question my treatment over the past two decades?"
To which Adele responds "You've been resistant to discussion since you came in. I'm trying to get as full a sense as I can of why that might be."
Bull's eye. Paul confesses his despair over the possibility he might have Parkinson's. Once he's opened up, he starts to play up his pathetic transparency, suddenly ashamed at having shown up with a copy of Gina's new novel sitting next to him on the couch, like a "security blanket." He reads the blurbs in a slightly sarcastic tone "Insightful and sharp. A masterful suspense for the human psyche" says Lorrie Moore. "Wise and deeply empathetic" says Amy Bloom. (Let us now pause to imagine Julia, the control freak/ literary agent from "Sunil: week 1" at Gina's book launch.) Perhaps he thinks he and Adele can now bond over Gina's possibly suspicious accomplishments.
But Adele nails him on both his jealousy and his ambivalence towards women. "What are you jealous of?" she asks.
"That she found a way to escape."
There's no escape for Paul. Adele has him in the glue trap tight.
She has me too.
Damn these spammers. I don't happen to like this show very much, although I have been drawn in by some of the performances. And Gabriel Bryne is easy on the eyes. I do like your critique though. I might have to give it another chance this season.
Thanks Emma. Yes this spam is awful. I've given up. But don't give up on In Treatment. Especially the sessions with Amy Ryan. I think they're going to be amazing.

FlickLock Snow Saw
The FlickLock Snow Saw is a multi-functional and essential tool for snowpack evaluation and backcountry travel.

Whether you're cutting test blocks and cleaning sidewalls in a snow pit or sawing tree branches during a tree-well burial, the Black Diamond FlickLock Snow Saw is a must-have for your backcountry toolbox. The saw easily attaches to most Black Diamond FlickLock ski pole shafts for extended reach behind large snow columns, and the durable sheath keeps it from tearing up the inside of your pack.
NOTE: This saw is only compatible with our current Traverse and Expedition ski poles
- Fits 14 and 11 mm lower pole sections
- Sheath included
Rated 4.7 out of 5 by 3
Rated 5 out of 5 by Patrick Nice Saw
Lightweight, thin. Cuts well. Stashes in or along the side of your pack very easily. Doesn't fall out of the scabbard on accident.
Pole attachment is pretty good. Do be aware that as of this review (12/12/2013) it works with only two ski poles: Traverse, Expedition. I have the 2-piece Traverse, which gives you a longer pole-saw assembly than the 3-piece Expedition.

Rated 5 out of 5 by LibeckiTheTimeisNow bomber/sweet
I have used this saw on many expeditions, recently in Antarctica while focusing on first ascents in Queen Maud Land. We crafted sweet camps with these saws, they are light, easy to use, and simple.
The only snow saw you need.
June 23, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Doug Simple, light and effective
I carry this everyday I go skiing. A good saw is essential for isolating columns for stability tests. This one cuts clean, is sharp enough to slice through ice, but won't tear apart your clothing if you accidently nick it. The only beef I have is that it's 5cm too short for my liking and the ski pole attachment doesn't work with all BD poles. But compared to every other snow saw on the market, and I've used them all, this one is the best.

In the past I've written about the benefits of beans. They are a great source of protein and fiber, but the most important thing is that they're delicious. I try to incorporate them in my diet as much as possible because down here in Mexico I've reduce my meat consumption by at least half. With so many great and fresh ingredients meat is just not as important. I still eat it (I'm not becoming a vegetarian, don't worry) but it's not the main ingredient in most of my dishes anymore, remember this delicious salpicon? These enfrijoladas (kinda like enchiladas but with a bean sauce) are another good example. Even though they're stuffed with chicken, it is not the main ingredient. That would be the rich and filling bean salsa. The tortillas, goat cheese and avocado on top complement perfectly this meal. You'll ask for seconds not because you'll still be hungry, but because it's delicious.
- The ingredients:
- •2 small roma tomatoes
- •1/4 white onion
- •1 garlic clove
- •1 chipotle adobado pepper
- •1/2 cup chicken broth if necessary
- •salt and pepper to taste
- •1/4 lb goat cheese
- •1 avocado, slice
- •sour cream
- •12 tortillas
- •2-4 TBSP canola oil
- •1/2 chicken breast, cooked and shredded
- •1/4 white onion, chopped
- •1/2 garlic clove, minced
- The how-to:
- Blend together beans, tomatoes, onion, garlic, pepper and add a little bit of chicken broth if necessary.
- Pour salsa into a sauce pan and bring to a boil over medium high heat.
- Reduce heat to low and adjust seasoning.
- Simmer for 15 minutes. Add more chicken broth if you don't want a thick sauce. Set apart.
- In an skillet with about 1 TBSP of oil sautee the chopped onion until translucent.
- Add the garlic and shredded chicken. Cook until it starts to brown.
- Pour about 3 TBSP of the bean sauce and mix very well. Add salt and pepper if necessary.
- In a different skillet warm the rest of the oil. When hot, fry the tortillas one by one and set apart.
- Place some of the chicken and goat cheese in each tortilla and set on plates.
- Pour some of the sauce on top of the tortillas.
- Garnish with sour cream and a couple of avocado slices.
- Enjoy!
¡Buen provecho!

I've never made a bean sauce for enchiladas, but I want to now! This sounds so delicious, and I love the goat cheese and avocados on top.
These are not "enchiladas". They are "enfrijoladas". The difference is just as the names say, one that is made with a chile based sauce. The other with a bean (frijol) based sauce. There is another similar dish called "enjitomatadas" made with a tomato (jitomate) sauce.
Woops–just realized the goat cheese is inside and it's sour cream on top. Can't wait to try this!
I'm a big fan of beans! Nice flavors. I'm drooling.
that salsa sounds so good that I probably wouldn't even miss the chicken!
What a beautiful dish — and a tasty recipe!
I know by now never to look at your blog before I have even had breakfast. It always makes me hungry! Love this recipe!
Wonderful presentation, I am sure it tastes delicious :).
Have a great week
Those look amazing! I make my own refried beans but I've never seen enfrijoladas before! I need to try these, they look like they taste fantastic!
I've only had a handful of enchiladas stuffed with beans and I totally agree that beans make all the difference. Nice touch with the goats cheese too
At first glance I saw top of plate and was going to tell you "what a beautiful plate" LOL when I realized it's the bean puree. You should market that design…lovely presentation. Feliz fin de semana!:*

We wrote the film specifically with his voice in mind but as unproven directors with barely a short film to our name at that point, the general perception was that we didn't stand a chance of landing him.

I had quite a choice of characters to choose from in writing this part. Just a few were chosen as some have already been written about and some will be. With this being the first time my experiences have seen paper and the actual incidents occurring almost 40 years ago, it is amazing to me that I remembered as much as I have.
Here goes: the first Park character is Little Jim, the life of every party he attended.
Little Jim was actually a pretty mellow, nice person as long as he wasn't drunk. He lived in a little shack that had been used by a couple named Shump and Cricket. The shack was nothing more than some old doors, boards and pieces of tin placed over a hole that was about 4 feet deep. It was small, easily heated during the winter and served Little Jim well since it also was off the beaten path and he could go there when he had wounds to lick, which was often.
Little Jim would show up at almost every party, and there were a lot of parties to be sure! He would drink and drink some more. When his level of intoxication got to a certain level of high, he would go up to someone, preferably someone much larger than himself, and begin to yell and cuss at them. Most of the time he would be pushed off, would fall down and lay there for a few moments. Then he would slowly rise, find some alcohol, take a big pull off it then attack the person who had pushed him down instead of cracking open his skull.
This would go on for several rounds until he would finally pull himself up and quite noisily stagger toward his hole in the ground. We could hear him yelling obscenities and if he ever stopped before he made it home, someone would go find out what part of the trail he had fallen off of, get him up and guide him into his house.
The next character is Naked Jay. Naked Jay was a summertime phenomena only. He went south for the winter where clothing was not needed as much as it was in the 40 below temperatures that visited the Park each year. Jay wore his black hair in two long braids and had a peace symbol necklace around his neck. He always had a "chick" on either hand and among the men of the place was greatly resented. Naked Jay lived in a school bus, like several others on the land.
He used to amaze me with his ladies and his utter and unapologetic nakedness around so many people who were clothed. Jay would sit beside his bus on the edge of the road with his ladies around and one of them opposite him over a Go! board. One day he asked me if I would like to learn Go!. I took him up on the offer and for a couple of weeks he and I played the game together. Go! is an ancient Chinese game popular in many Asian countries. It is a game of strategy where one person tries to capture as much space on the board as possible.
While playing with Jay, I learned that he was Buddhist. He certainly had the mellow fellow part down pat. I soon saw through his act, however. He might have been Buddhist. He certainly knew a lot about the religion and he was a very good Go! player. However, the whole thing was an act he used to get more sex than anyone else in the Park. I couldn't help but notice that the first stop for every single lady who showed up was his bed. Perhaps this was why he did not need the approval of any of the other males in the Park and indeed, did not associate with very many of them at all.
James and Paula were some rare members of the community. When I arrived, they had been living there for more than a year in a sub compact A frame with three kids. Neither of them drank or smoked pot much, if at all. The children were home schooled by their mother, a smart and petite woman with a winning smile who, unlike some other community members, was not afraid of work. She kept her home clean and the family fed with wonderful meals all cooked on her wood stove.
James was a very large man, strong and a hard a worker as his wife. He was pretty easy going unless you made yourself a threat to his family- that was a definite no-no. He worked their garden, the largest in the Park, and cut wood for the house. Every week, he managed to eke out a little time to work on the octagonal log cabin he wanted to finish so his family would not be so cramped. James and Paula were pillars of the community. Almost everyone respected them. Those who did not at least left them alone.
Gandalf and Holly were the owners of Toad Hall before Joanne and I took it over. Holly was mom to Sarah Sunshine and cooked many of the meals, cleaned the family laundry, cleaned Toad Hall and was a straight up good worker. Gandalf was a hard worker as well. He usually wore his long dark hair in braids to keep it out of the way while he worked. At one point he worked with me on the rail road and at another he was a cook in a restaurant in St. Johnsbury. He had a degree in cooking from the chef's school down in Florida and taught me how to make real whole wheat bread starting with the wheat berries and finishing with an oven in a wood stove. He once told me he quit school at seventh grade or maybe it was eighth. In any case, he never stopped learning and read all the time he wasn't working. He was the first person to tell me about The Farm, a commune that outlasted many others and I hear is still going to this day.
Then there was Joanne. She was one of the few women in the Park who was unattached. She liked me, anyway I had heard that, but at least one of the reasons she wanted me around was the need for a woman to have some association or attachment while living in the Park. This was all unstated, of course, but any sociologist studying the place would have come up with the same conclusion, I am sure. Joanne had not gone far in school and was not a beauty queen, but she was attractive especially when she smiled and she had a big heart that reached out to those in need. In some ways she was a bit naïve in that she spent a lot of time helping those who just wanted a free ride. She had run away from home and wound up in Boston where she told me she walked the streets in order to obtain money to pay for the apartment she rented to keep several people out of the cold.
There are a couple of others I will be telling you about that are not listed here: Raunchy Ron and Burney, BJ and most notably, Big Jim and the STP family. A lot of other people drifted in and out, and there were at least one or two full time Park residents that are not listed here simply because I never got to know them. In all, these are the main characters one would have come into contact with had they been at the Park the same time as I was.
Me thinks a short book could come from these.
You got my interest. :}
A few episodes down the line, the story will intersect with Patty Hearst, the newpaper magnate's daughter who was kidnapped by the SLA (Symbionese Liberation Army) and held captive until they used her in a bank job. Anyway, there was a lot of history that intersected with my little trip to Vermont.


text: So I have been reading up on replacing my steering wheel badge as it is dented and is a complete eyesore. The dent didn't seem bad originally, so I tried to start prying out the emblem. Well, it started coming out very nicely, then the flat head broke lose and scratched it. DOH!!! So I kept trying as nicely as I could to finish the job, and did it again. Eventually I got it out, but because it is POS aluminum, the dent won't "pop" out, it's literally bent. I have been looking around to get some wheel center cap inlays for the spot, but instead I got a hold of third shift studios, and the guy there is going to make me up a replacement. It's going to be $35, so its a little pricey, but it should solve everyone's problems for finding a replacement if you dent yours. They are making me up one of the adhesive polyurethane deals, so it will stick right on there, and if in event the airbag goes off, it won't be a sharp piece of aluminum possibly coming off at me. I will get some pics when I get it, I just contacted him last night and he already sent me a file to print out and test the fitment. So hopefully it is in sometime next week. Just figured I would let ya guys know!

I gave my review of this mascara under another post of the product. I won't restate that review but will say this: For me this mascara does what it advertises to do and I like both the shades and brush. I like getting close to the lash base which is easy to do with GL. I find it wet but I never like any mascara until about a week or so in when it thickens a bit, this is no different in that respect. Some complain of their dismay but how can this little engine that could of a mascaca ever be all they expect given this is an editors pick of most beauty and fashion magazines? Collectively that adds up and some expect this to wash their car, drive their kids to school and act like the queen herself has died when its just, gulp, a mascara?! Editors likely choose this old school product because it holds up literally and figureatively when many other products created in the same era, do not. You may not love the formulation for you, but if I asked you, to choose and actually wear a mascara formulated in the 1970's or a foundation, quick you must choose one, which would you choose? I'd choose a pink tube of mascara over a pink face any day. So what's it got going other than longevity? It provides a basic mascara and that's all some want and need. I can't keep up with what's the newest, latest of others, and if they're so great, why does it get reformulated within 6 mos and THAT'S the new BEST thing?! For a basic mascara that darkens and somewhat thickens lashes, this is a good product. Keep in mind your mascara expectations when buying this. In the past women didn't have a zillion mascara options, so if they wanted thicker lashes? They just let it dry between coats and simply applied until achieving the desired effect. Longer lashes? apply like above but concentrate on tips and lifting up and out, repeat as needed. Want a natural look? Want lower lashes defined too, wipe most of the product off the brush and apply. Technique was the difference. Don't get me wrong I love new technology and trying new things but I admired my mothers lashes when I was a kid and she used this too. I get the same effect and there are so few things that can be said of. I wish it still came in the rounded tube lol.

I love this product, and my secret is making my own curved brush. It can be done even though the brush is small, and I find the product applies perfectly. It's easily washed off and is just a simple basic mascara. You can make it as natural or dramatic as you want depending on how many coats you use. I know you can buy one with a curved brush but it is a bigger brush and that's not what I want. I like the original smallish brush bent into a curve. It works beautifully and is much easier to apply. I like the original kind in either brownish black or black. I save the wands from previous GL tubes and wash them, so when I get a new tube of Great Lash I just put my own hand curved brush in that's ready to go and that's it. Then I wash the new brush and put it away for next time. Prepping the brush beforehand is easier than working with a mascara covered one. Easy, inexpensive and every drugstore carries this mascara.

While I haven't tried every mascara on the market, I have certainly wasted a lot of money on various brands. I always come back to this one, the good old Maybelline Great Lash. Nothing coats my lashes, and separates my lashes like this mascara. I prefer the curved applicator brush, but I don't have any problem with the original brush or even the "lots of lashes" brush.

Great everyday mascara! I think I know why a lot of people are griping about it though. This has a tiny wand and applicator which is great for people with smaller features. I know it sounds strange but the big wands that I find in ALL the new mascara are WAY to big for my eyes. I end up with makeup all over my lids and forget about trying to use them on your lower lashes! All you have to do is layer this mascara. It wont flake or smudge throughout the day either. This is truly a great mascara for the price and availability. Be sure it isn't out of date and I'm certain the stinging and irritation that some women claim to have will not occur. Overall I think this is a wonderful mascara and it makes my lashes full and long without breaking the bank.

Maybe it's me. Maybe I don't know how to put on mascara properly. Whenever I wear this, there are always at least a few clumps. However, I am inclined to say it is the brush, which does not have enough bristles to define the lashes and avoid clumps. It is a fine mascara, and the clumps are easily corrected, but it is not special. I am ready to move on.

I would never buy this mascara again. I used it on Monday morning and by that evening when i went to take it off, my eyes were burning! I ended up with a really bad allergic reaction to this mascara - the new formula in the pink and black packaging. Both my upper eyelids and lower area beneath my eyes swelled up and started to itch. I ended up having to get a prescription drug from my doctor for Patanol (eye drops) and Claritin. To top it off, this product didn't even do anything special to my lashes - no volume buildup or lengthening. Don't waste your money on this.

I love the price of this mascara, and if I wasn't such a mascara junkie I think it could be my go to product. My problem with it is that it burned my eyes. I don't have particularly sensitive eyes, and this doesn't happen very often, but when I switched from the original formula to the newest one (XL? Whatever the new, bigger brush formula is) it burned. If you are careful with the application you can definitely avoid clumping and smearing, but you have to be diligent, you can't just slap it on.

I really did not like this product! Basically what it did was give my lashes the appearance of being wet, it split my lashes into 5 sections and made them droopy. Don't buy this!

Why are women these days such...whores?
Sometimes I really feel like I was born in the wrong generation. These days women treat sex like its such a meaningless thing. I recently met a girl... Show More
Most Helpful Opinion
I'm don't even care about the double standard - what I'm wondering is why you feel all women should alter their personal desires to suit your or any other man's needs. You don't care about women as individuals, you only care because there are less for you to choose from. This isn't about her being what she wants to be, but about what YOU wanted her to be. It's selfishness pure and simple.If she doesn't meet your standards then move on - it's as simple as that. The choices she made in her life are her business and I don't see why degrading or insulting her is necessary. That speaks more about your respect towards women in general. Her morals are different from yours, doesn't make her good or bad - just different. Also, I don't understand how her sexuality can take away from her classiness, intelligence, or enthusiasm for life. She is still the same person before her confession - the only thing that changed was your perception of her. Fortunately, how you feel about her will not likely affect how she feels about herself - so this complaining is nothing more than spitting in the wind. She's still happy with herself and you are without a classy, intelligent, fun woman.This is the reality you are going to have to live with. Women care less and less about what potential husbands and boyfriends want and more and more about their own desires. Which is what it should be, why live for a future phantom, a figment of imagination when they could please themselves? Women are people who are entitled to live our lives as they see fit. And if a great guy is willing to accept them, great. If not - so be it.I'm not going to pretend women don't lament about being single - but I think more and more women are willing to give up having a relationship to live honestly. Maybe that's why they are single. Which I find admirable - it is more important to be themselves than go against their own desires for a man they never met. I didn't pretend not to like sex in order to land a man (and I landed a great one). Those who let my sexuality overshadow my intelligence, my compassion, my generosity and loyalty weren't men I wanted anyway. It wasn't my loss or theirs - we were merely incompatible.Which is my opinion is what the true double standard is - we have to accept men for what they are but live up to standards they hold for us.I don't disrespect your desire to have a woman who thinks like you, I just wonder what insulting women in general is going to accomplish. There are women out there who share your morals - Utah probably has a lot - so what exactly are you missing out on except for convenience? The moral outrage feels false to me. I think you're more upset about not getting what you want. - a literal buffet of untouched women for you to pick from. Too bad for you.Good luck - check out Utah.
I really don't give a sh*t how things have changed. It's wrong. It wasn't like this back in the day. Where men and women married and remained faithful. It used to be completely common for a husband and wife to be married for 50+ years until death. Nowadays people hop from one marriage to the next like it means nothing and people like you act like its a good thing. No thanks.We should go back to the days when women actually respected themselves. Where men and women had their roles to fill.

But it does. This is simply put she will never be married and if you have the same mentality I feel bad for any male that marries you. Here is a news flash she may be an amazing person but if she whored every guy will look at her differently no matter how good looking. If you are already getting the cake why marry? There is absolutely no benefit to the male in marriage. A womens duty is to get a guy to stay and help her raise the kids as guys don't get pregnant. How does she get the guy to stay? Well a big part of that is withholding Sex. Feminism has outgrown what it was intended to do and has corrupted this generations mind and in turn has blindly made women throw away the trump card they had against men. There is no double standard amoung this. Women have there advantages and disadvantages as well as men. Marriage was designed to level the playing field. Go Read The book "Men on Strike" It was written by a women Helen Smith. Get the double standards garbage out of your mind.
This was awesome. If a girl wants to have sex that doesn't mean she's not classy. Being classy is determined by how you carry yourself. You can be classy and be a virgin, and you can be classy and have 100 sexual partners
What's Your Opinion?
What Girls Said 14
I'm not condoning or trying to make an excuse for these type of girls. But its such a double standard in society today, a guy can have sex with 26 girls at 19 years old and be deemed a hero while a girl who does the same thing is condemned. Someone's sexual habits shouldn't be a deciding factor in who you date. But since it seems like it is a big factor for you there are girls out there who don't 'give out sex like its candy at the fair', in fact I know more of these girls than slutty ones. Cut women some slack we get enough sh*t from society we don't need it from a guy we're on a date with.
I am not a whore. All of us girls aren't like that. I would only have sex with a guy after we have been together for a few months or when both of us feel ready but not after a few days or weeks of going out. Personally, I don't want to feel like I'm getting used and I think guys truly respect girls more when they are willing to wait. I am with a great guy now. We have been together for about a year and we didn't do anything until a few months after we started going out because we have respect for each other and wanted to do it when we felt like we were ready.
I'm 20 and I still have my v-card! We aren't all like that!
Yes and it should not be frowned on for men to have their v-card too. Since when does that make a man "less" Maybe it means the man has more self restraint and values his own health, both mental and physical, and wants a real bond with one woman he TRULY loves and will have crazy kinky sex with for the rest of their lives together after being married and "forsaking all others".
Girls act like whores cause their fickle and often have trouble deciding what they want. However I do agree that. Why is it okay for a guy to be with like 25 girls and its "cool" But when a girl is with like 25 guys she's a "whore" ?
I would call that guy a whore as well. Views are different from different people, ditto goes for the anony below you. Don't judge us all missy.

You are so ignorant. It is not 'cool" for a manwhore to sleep around with a bunch of girls. Since when is that a good thing? only in the USA and the west. manwhores should be ostracized same way womenwhores are. sleeping with 25 girls just makes that guy a douchebag whore.
Many of us wish to wait until marriage or at least until in a serious relationship. Having principles and character doesn't mean we are "less" as men or that we are pussies. We probably have bigger dicks, better sex, better character, more discipline, and care more about the women we love than those malewhores who make it seem like sleeping with many women is a good thing. You don't need to sleep with a lot of women or for a woman you don't need to sleep with many men to be "wild". It's called having principles, good character and nobility to avoid doing those things. -
Also we will not be STD ridden manwhores. And not it doesn't mean we will be "less experienced". You can learn plenty from reading. And whatever happened to experiencing sex for the first time together and working through differences or problems?
People these days confuse love with lust. Well I say good luck to all the women who will become bitter old cat ladies dying miserable lonely deaths and all the bitter old men who will die alone staring blankly at a wall. Because being such whores in their youth and screwing with society's stability means they deserve their fates.
Well can you really blame her? Whenever I go out it's just guys going after sex and if you don't give it to them you're a b*tch and if you do you're a whore. I'm not condoning her behavior but I can see where she's coming from. If she were a guy she'd be like coolest girl ever but if she's a girl so she's a whore. I've only slept with 2 guys and most girls I know don't have a long list of guys they've slept with so you really can't say that most of us are whores because we're not. I go to the bar every week and I've never brought a guy home but I've seen several that I'd love to bring home but I'm too scared to even approach them the chances of them ever going home with me are slim to none. I would love to have the balls to sleep around like a guy but I don't because I don't want guys like you calling me a whore.
And thats why the double standard works in a nut shell. Next time you see or talk to a known man whore call him out on it! See if he even breaks stride. But call a girl a cooty queen much less a whore and she dissolves into tears (thats an exageration) or freaks out. Be who you are and forget what other people think of you! is it really that important what people you dont even know think of you anyway.
I'm not saying there aren't slutty women or loose girls and I'm not agreeing or saying their behavior is okay but HELLO there are so many men who are like that as well, and even more so actually, so really there are many things wrong with your view. first of all you do realise that your saying "women today" are whores, but guess what men have been f***ing around for centuries and have been openly congratulating themselves about how many women they can "bag". Also as many have been saying there is a huge double standard because if a woman sleeps around then she's seen as a whore, but a man sleeps around and he's considered a stud or sexy. You see how there's no negativity around men when it comes to sex becuase there is no word for a man "slut". Also girls who aren't sexually loose are immediatly termed as frigid or lesbo or ice queens, so now we're either frigid bitches or slutty whores. In fact I would say women have more self respect and "self-restraint" as you put it, then men because they can just poke and run. Just because you've met a few loose women does not give you the right in any way to label us all as whores, epsecially if you have a penis
This is why women will never understand.. when you like a guy all you have to do is bat your eyelashes and he'll give you a chance. Even if he f***s you over he gives you a chance.. for us guys if we like a girl we have to get rejected by her and 20 others like her before we learn the "right moves" to get the 22nd.. this is why hooking up with a lot of women is an accomplishment for guys and a shame for girls. You girls have it so easy.. at least you have options.
man you have the wrong definition of the word whore whore means you do it for money no other reason their are lot of married middle class whore out their who only fuck one guy their husband but they only fuck because he earner if he lost his job they loses him straight away promiscuity is a different thing, you call them sluts
When you jump from one man to another that makes you a whore, because you run off with the money and time they spent on you.
you're meeting the wrong girls. due to today's society a lot of people are, ahem, sexually free, but there are still some good girls out there with low body counts. I would say that 26 is much higher than average for the average girl, she was just a fluke. what is it that draws you to these girls that turn out to be whores? is it their looks and body? if so that is part of the reason why there are so many whores.
I really don't think I'm drawn to whores. I pick women that seem to be classy, smart, mature, etc but the image I have of them always gets shattered when they reveal their true nature.If you're gonna be a whore, then why put it in a classy wrapping
What Guys Said 12
Women are great. They really are. But, just like us, they have weaknesses. They're not just the SAME weaknesses. Logic is one of a woman's greatest weaknesses.
Let's start with a simple analogy. You buy a car, you put miles on it, it loses value. As men, in a relationship, we're 'buying' vagina. That's one of OUR weaknesses.
Here's the great part though... the competition. There ARE still a lot of good girls out there. You just don't hear about them. Why? Because if you're driving that old beat up ford with 150k miles on it, and still making payments, do you think the party receiving the payments would notify you of a brand new viper that potentially costs less than your crappy old ford? Of course not! Women are no different. They love to slut shame because it slightly depreciates the value of women in general, which doesn't change the number of their value, but does make them seem, by contrast, more valuable.
There are good girls out there. Whores just don't want you to know this, because instinctively a whore knows that you would rather marry a good girl than a whore. Just my 2 cents. -
I think you're going to find in coming years an increasing divide between the "religious" and the "sexually liberated" simply because one system offers a solid, time-tested, and proven model for personal identity and the other does not. I invite you to do some digging on this.I would encourage you to do the following, and I admit this reflects the biblical model that Christ stands for and I appreciate your honesty about your religious stance: above all else consider sacrificial love as top priority. Who can disagree with looking out for each other? Let this dictate your choices (this is far from easy). And secondly, test absolutely everything and use your own head conferring with people you trust. This is very hard to accomplish and you will encounter resistance.I caution you to test everything and use your own head because it sounds like some of these comments are wrank with classic psychological "projection" quick to presume that you hold views that are innately selfish. When it is just (if not more) likely you're thinking about the kind of woman you'd like to see pick-up your children from football practice: a perfectly acceptable concern.Again many comments state a morally relativistic model is perfectly acceptable, but history does not positively reflect this model and suggests otherwise (I personally value Francis Schaeffer's "How Should We Then Live?"). There is no lack of evidence that the survival of a society depends on its moral strength. Even so, the only thing you really have control over is your own character and morality and these are things that can never be taken from you unless you choose to give them away.
To some sex is simply a carnal need/pleasure they like to have fulfilled and nothing more. As long as they're safe with it I guess whatever floats their boat. It's just like anything else others do for pleasure, in that regard. But it appears you don't hold sex in such a regard and view it as more than that, which again is fine, but you cannot really fault others who don't share your values as such. If they don't, simply move on. It sounds like it's not really hypocritical or a double standard in this scenario, as you hold yourself to the same values you expect your woman to. There are plenty of men and women out there who view sex as something to be shared within certain confines, the promiscuous ones are just more abundant or in the limelight nowadays. After all with condoms, birth control, and other such things, what's to stop people from having sex when they have less chance of facing the consequences?
Hey, you said what I said but with less words, lol. Makes me feel like a blabbermouth.
Lmao XD I apologize ms Simple-Simonette. I assure you I can probably rant on just as well as you can at times just not this time ;)
21 Year old virgin here, I just wanna marry a christian virgin. I don't want STDs. Yes, if you've slept around you most likely have one, or have had one that is still in your system dormant. If you've have chlamydia then you'll have trouble having kids. I like kids and want some of my own, chlamydia scars the fallopian tubes; the most common sexually transmitted disease. I don't want to pay $10,000 for invetro.
Consider yourself lucky - you are the one who gets to say no. In my generation, the mere hint that you wanted sex from a girl you didn't know that well would risk labeling both you and her as being "immoral", and all her friends would be warned to stay away from you (a little exaggeration here, bet not that much). Personally. I'd trade places with you in a heartbeat, having felt cheated out of my fair share of sex due to the stupid rules of the generation I was born in, where women were taught that a woman wanting sex was evil.
I agree with you. It certainly seems that way and I would prefer that I was born in a much earlier generation. I'm sure that people will complain that you are calling these people whore, sluts, etc, but those are the very ones you are referring to. Anyway, there are some good ones. It just takes a long ass time to find them.
So can I assume that they ones down voting me are the whores or guys that like whores? At any rate, it is what it is, but I just hope I can find a nice attractive woman that isn't opening her legs all the time. That's all I really want. And I'm tired of this double standard argument. First, not all of us regard man whores as heroes. Second, 26 people by the time you are 19 is rediculous for anyone without a terminal illness. Third, there are double standards towards men too. Short rant done
Im voting you down because your argument is total one viewed prejudice bullsh*t. I'm not a whore and I don't sleep with a guy unless he's my boyfriend or in a serious relationship with me. I bet there are plently of nice attractive women that don't open their legs but we get so much sh*t from both sides of men we can't even get a break. we either have crude players telling us to give it to them or we're frigid or inexperienced, or we have people like you saying we're sluts to have sex. thanks jerk
You're very welcome. Its not up to me and its not up to the player. It is solely upon you to choose what you want to do. I can only go by my observations and that's what I see. Maybe the slutty ones are the loud ones by making themselves known and maybe some are saying they are to fit in. I really don't know. I guess this is more out of frustration than anything so sorry if I offend you. However, it doesn't really change my thoughts. That doesn't really matter anyway.
