Belgium photos and Zoo Bratislava's calendarHello!
At first, maybe you've seen my poll where I ask you for votes. Well, I want to tell you more... In zoo Bratislava there is really ugly and terrible exhibit for wolves. Luckily I haven't seen it in person - woxys didn't want to show me, she said I would cry. So when zoo Bratislava announced this calendar thing, I immediately joined! They said that visitors can send one photo per person and that they'll make a calendar of them and all money which they'll receive from selling those calendars will go to building of a new exhibit for wolves! They chose 20 photos and mine is one of them and now people are voting for the best 12 which will be in the calendar and 3 photos which will be the best (=with the most votes) will get some prizes. Of course I would like to win (I haven't win anything for ages ), but the most important is to get my photo into the calendar! So thank you for every single Facebook like here: http://t.co/C52Pl6aS

New boots time
Been riding for 10 years now, and have to ditch my 7 year old Burton Drivers. Since then, I have completely stopped going to the park and ride big mountain exclusively. I'm a complete powder hound and try to stay away from anything groomed and love steep slopes, glades, etc. I keep getting mixed opinions on the stiffness factors of boots; some stay soft for park and stiff for mountain, others say the opposite. What is the verdict on this and does anyone have any suggestions for a boot? I ride an 05-06 Burton Baron with 05-06 Burton cartel bindings. Wear a size 12 and have wide feet. Thanks for any help

From what I understand softer boots are more for freestyle and stiffer boots are for all mountain. A stiffer boot will provide loads of stability so that makes sense. I still have a pair of Drivers myself and used them specifically for backcountry stuff.

Celebrity Eclipse in Southampton: Mushy Peas on the Menu!
Brits sailing out of Southampton on the new
Celebrity Eclipse
this April will be delighted to find a few home comforts onboard -- if you consider mushy peas and steak and kidney pie to be home comforts, that is.
has unveiled a host of Brit-friendly aspects to the new vessel, sister to
Celebrity Solstice
Celebrity Equinox
. Menus have been tweaked, entertainment tailored to British tastes and onboard lecturers and "enrichment" made more appropriate to a U.K. audience.
"We're not going to take anything away," explained Celebrity's CEO Dan Hanrahan at a press conference and slap up lunch in London yesterday in the Lanesborough Hotel's Apsleys restaurant (designed, coincidentally, by Adam Tihany, the man behind the Solstice-class ships' two-level main dining room decor). "We're just adding menu items that will be available all the time and making sure we have U.K.-inspired entertainment and experiences."
In the ship's dazzlingly white, airy main dining room, dishes like Beef Wellington, cod in parsley sauce, Yorkshire Pudding and mushy peas are being added to the "always available" items on the menu and there will be more vegetarian choices and Indian dishes (Celebrity employs a lot of Indian chefs, so expect these to be good).
Indian food will be a feature in Bistro on Five, too, with dosa crepes, dal and a lamb panini with vindaloo sauce added to the collection of light snacks. Curry lovers will be equally happy in the Oceanview Cafe, with a daily Indian selection alongside pub-style dishes like pasties, pies and "banger rolls," though neither the assembled press and travel agents nor cruise line execs could work out whether this meant sausage rolls or hot dogs with English bangers. (Despite all the effort made, it appears something got lost in translation!)
Slightly more off-the-wall is the curry and raisin gelato in Gelateria, the ice-cream bar.
The British influence continues in the entertainment. A new show, Ovations, will include songs from shows such as "Les Miserables," "We Will Rock You" and "Jersey Boys," all West End hits. The Sky Lounge, an elegant observation lounge with floor-to-ceiling windows, will have regular pub nights, with English beer on tap (which beers exactly still to be decided) and pub games, including darts. U.K.-based chefs are being recruited for cooking demos and BBC Prime and Sky News will be on the in-cabin TV system.
Perhaps the most welcome feature of all for the tea-loving British passengers will be electric kettles and tea bags in the cabins, which appeared to much acclaim when
Royal Caribbean
first brought
Independence of the Seas
to Britain.
But do mushy peas and steak and kidney sit well alongside the boutique elegance of a Solstice-class ship, which lists a frozen Martini bar and the lavish AquaSpa among its attractions? "We had lots of discussions about this," U.K. and Ireland general manager Jo Rzymowska told Cruise Critic. "It's amazing how many people say they don't want these things, but then get onboard and find they do after all."
One thing U.K. passengers don't want, it turns out, is Sterling pricing onboard. "When we had
Legend of the Seas
sailing out of Southampton for Royal Caribbean we transferred the pricing to pounds at great operational expense," Rzymowska explained. "The feedback was that it wasn't what people wanted. They weren't going on a national brand – they were on an international ship. Of course, the exchange rate was favourable at the time, which helped." So, U.S. dollars it is on Eclipse, despite the fact that the US dollar is stronger against the pound than it was when Legend -- and Independence -- were introduced to Southampton.
In any case, a surprising statistic has arisen from the new ship's advance booking patterns. Some 90 percent of passengers were expected to be British and 10 percent international for the ex-Southampton season but the reality has turned out to be 75 percent British and 25 percent international, including many Americans.
If these international guests are hoping to sample real British food, though, they could be disappointed. One thing absent from the menus revealed yesterday? Good old fish and chips.
What British comfort foods would you like to see on your ex-U.K. cruise on a non-U.K. ship?

I hadn't thought about the open carry coming up but that makes sense since they changed the name from concealed weapon license to handgun license also

Write a ReviewBeautiful Rug!!!
By Kim from Ct on May 09, 2013
Avid Do-It-Yourselfer
My long awaited rug is here and I am not disappointed.. I saw this in a magazine and had to have it. The rug is beautiful - really more like a piece of art for the floor than a rug. The detail is stunning and the colors are just breathtaking. I was worried about buying a rug sight unseen, but I made the right choice. I would definitely call the main color yellow not orange and the pink that seems so prominent in the photo just blends in so nicely with the design of the rug, there is so much detail in the rug - beige, cream, the prettiest light lime green, lavender and a tiny bit of slate blue. The colors - vibrant not pastel. I have seen shedding - that is completely normal for a new wool rug. It had a slightly pungent smell the first night - was double wrapped in plastic - but the smell is gone now. the rug has a soft, substantial feel. And my final comment - this is a rug that will work in an active family who sometimes forget to take their shoes off - there is no white!

Beautiful Rug
By Kim B. from Ct on May 04, 2013
Avid Do-It-Yourselfer
Had to wait patiently for this back ordered rug and I have not been disappointed, it was well worth the wait! The rug is beautiful, the colors are vivid, the pattern is beautifully detailed and the rug is soft and rich to the touch. The yellow appears a more golden yellow than in the pictures, and in person, all the colors in the rug seem more muted but are not pastel. This rug is actually a piece of artwork for the floor. I am thrilled. I thought the rug smelled a little "gamey" (it is made of wool) when I first took it out of the double plastic bagging - but the smell was gone in one day.

Thoratec Announces FDA Approval To Commence REVIVE-IT Study Utilizing HeartMate II®
"REVIVE-IT will evaluate the use of the HeartMate II in heart failure patients currently not indicated for LVAD support. These patients suffer from highly impaired quality of life and functional capacity, but their disease has not yet advanced to the point of more serious consequences, such as organ damage or immobility," stated Dr. Kormos from UPMC.
The National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI) of the National Institutes of Health and Thoratec are sponsoring the REVIVE-IT study, through a $5 million contract from the NHLBI and a funding commitment of up to $11 million from Thoratec. The NHLBI is providing executive and scientific guidance on the conduct of the study.
"We appreciate the leadership demonstrated by the NHLBI in this pioneering study, as well as our partnership with Thoratec," said Dr. Pagani. "The HeartMate II device has been extensively studied for long-term support of advanced heart failure patients and has a very well-defined efficacy and safety profile. We look forward to exploring its utilization and potential benefits, including extended survival and improved functional status, in earlier-stage patients."
In addition to REVIVE-IT, Thoratec maintains a firm commitment to the completion of the ongoing ROADMAP ( Risk Assessment and Comparative Effectiveness Of Left Ventricular Assist Device and Medical Management in Ambulatory Heart Failure Patients) study. "ROADMAP and REVIVE-IT are complementary studies which together should advance the field's understanding of LVAD therapy in Class III and earlier-stage Class IV heart failure patients," stated David Farrar, Ph.D., Vice President, Research and Scientific Affairs at Thoratec. ROADMAP is a post-market study of the HeartMate II, involving ambulatory advanced heart failure patients who are not yet dependent on intravenous inotropic support and are typically categorized as INTERMACS profiles 4-6, within the existing FDA-approved indication for Destination Therapy, whereas REVIVE-IT will include Class III patients currently not approved for LVAD support. As of the end of 2012, 90 patients have been enrolled in ROADMAP, and Thoratec expects the full cohort of 200 patients to be enrolled by the end of 2013.
"Thoratec's mission is to advance the treatment of heart failure and the field of mechanical circulatory support. To that end, we are pleased to partner with preeminent VAD programs across the U.S., under the leadership of the UM-CVC and UPMC, in the REVIVE-IT study," commented Gary F. Burbach, President and Chief Executive Officer of Thoratec. For more information regarding the REVIVE-IT study, visit http://clinicaltrials.gov ID# NCT01369407. Given the change in sponsorship of the study, however, some information on this website is subject to change, including information about the study device as well as the investigational sites that will be participating in the study. For more information regarding the ROADMAP study, visit http://clinicaltrials.gov ID# NCT01452802. About HeartMate II The HeartMate II is intended for a broad range of advanced heart failure patients and is the only continuous-flow left ventricular assist device (LVAD) approved by the FDA for both Bridge to Transplantation and Destination Therapy. The device is designed to provide long-term cardiac support, pumping up to 10 liters of blood per minute for full support of the circulation, or to supplement the native function of the patient's left ventricle. The HeartMate II is placed just below the diaphragm and is connected to the left ventricle, returning blood flow to the aorta, the main artery that carries oxygenated blood to the entire body. With only one moving part, a continuously spinning rotor, HeartMate II is designed to provide exceptional reliability. An external, wearable system that includes a small controller and two batteries is attached by a percutaneous driveline. More than 200 peer-reviewed publications have featured studies regarding the HeartMate II, far exceeding the volume of published data on all other LVADs combined. To date, over 13,000 patients have been implanted with the HeartMate II, including over 5,500 currently on support.

My Personal and Legal Perspective on The Trial of John Edwards
The intersection of politics, the law and the mass media is where I have spent a good part of my professional career. John Edwards could certainly say the same thing, especially these days.
Our careers have overlapped on a couple of occasions. We served in the Senate together where there was nothing much in the way of personal interaction to speak of. He wasn't that kind of guy. Maybe I wasn't either. Perhaps, even more to the heart of the matter, it's not that kind of Senate anymore.
Besides, it was also obvious that the Senate was just a political way station for the ambitious young Edwards. I always thought that these were the kind of guys who made it so difficult to accomplish anything of long-term benefit to the country. I suppose I exempt myself from this destructive obsession because I had no thought or desire to run for president in those days. That particular malady came over me later.
A few years later, each of us having tried our hand at national politics and the public  having responded, "Thanks, but no thanks,†we found ourselves both represented by the same speakers' agency, Harry Walker in New York. The agency used to pair us together in sort of a debate format. Again, not much interaction, everything civil but no drink after the event. (At least now I know that wasn't just me. The boy had a lot on his hands).
I Just Didn't Know John
In retrospect, one of those nights on the road sticks out. We were to meet in Nova Scotia to speak to a group; as I arrived, the news in the U.S. was full of the National Inquirer story about Edwards and his love child. Rumors of the story had been circulating for days. I wondered if he would show up for our speaking engagement. No need to worry. He showed up with one of his kids and acted like he didn't have a care in the world. We did our thing, and if he was worried, it surely didn't show. The subject of the story didn't come up, but I concluded that nobody could pull off such a performance if the story were true. Which just goes to show that I just didn't know John.
A lot has happened since then. After a long investigation, he now sits in a federal courtroom in North Carolina, charged with federal criminal offenses that could get him up to 30 years, although a likely sentence would be much less. The crux of the charges against him is that he and his political campaign organization accepted campaign contributions totaling almost $1 million over the legal limit.
Edwards' defense is that the money was not for the campaign, but to be used to provide assistance to his mistress and their child and as a way to keep it from Edward's dying wife. When your defense sounds an awful lot like a prosecutor's brief, you're in trouble. Edwards' does, and Edwards is.
Without dwelling upon the obvious as to Edwards' long list of misdeeds, let's just say that through his own actions he has turned himself into one of the most unsympathetic public figures in modern times. (Frankly, long before all of this, I always thought his demagogic "Two Americas†campaign theme was just short of a capital offense.) But, having said all of that, I'm not sure he is guilty of the offenses charged and I'm not at all convinced that he should have ever been charged.
Where Do You Draw the Line?
I think it's fair to say that conduct like Edwards' was far from the minds of those who drafted the campaign-finance law in question. The typical case is one where the money goes to the campaign. If it is in an amount that is over the limit, it's a clear violation. Or the candidate takes money legally given and misappropriates it for his own personal use. In the Edwards case, however, the money never came into the campaign.
The prosecutor's theory is that the money to take care of the mistress, spent outside the campaign, still had a campaign purpose. It would have certainly hurt the campaign if the affair had become known, but where do you draw the line? Must the subject of the activity covered up have hurt the campaign a little or a lot? What about payments by a candidate's family friend to treat and keep from public view the candidate's child who has a drug problem? Should the family friend have been a friend for, say, ten years in order for it to not be considered a contribution? No one knows. There is no precedent.
Law and Morality
When the legal basis for a prosecution is murky and you have a very unpopular defendant, a prosecutor must be especially careful and show restraint. He must leave the unpopularity factor out of the equation. Look at what happened in the Trayvon Martin case in Florida. The special prosecutor quickly indicted, while being showered with praise in the media. That prosecution now looks weaker with every newly discovered fact.
Of course Zimmerman was unpopular for a different reason than Edwards, but that's not the point. One time the defendant may be an immoral jerk. The next time he may be unpopular simply because of the side of the political debate he is on. I've seen that happen, too. I believe that Scooter Libby would never have been indicted (in Washington, D.C.) had he not been Dick Cheney's right-hand man. The rule of law is the bedrock of a free society. Unfortunately, it sometimes falls victim to those entrusted the most with its defense: prosecutors.
The prohibitions of the law and those of morality are not always the same. However, the law is similar to morality in that its proper application is most important when it's most difficult. Such as when applying it to a fellow like John Edwards.

(7) California 53
(12-1, 2-0 Pac-12)
(20) Colorado 49
(11-2, 0-2 Pac-12)
2:00 PM ET, January 6, 2013
Coors Events Center, Boulder, Colorado
BOULDER, Colo. -- Unable to hit free throws with any consistency down the stretch, No. 7 California still found a recipe for success with some old-fashioned defense and rebounding.
Brittany Boyd scored 15 points, Reshanda Gray and Afure Jemerigbe both rebounded missed free throws late, and Layshia Clarendon figured in a defensive stop that prevented a last-second shot as Cal hung on to beat No. 20 Colorado 53-49 on Sunday."That was very important," Boyd said of Cal's physical finish. "I think rebounding is the key to our team. I just think we were dialed in, focused and didn't want to lose."Jemerigbe and Gray added 10 points apiece for Cal (12-1, 2-0 Pac-12 Conference), which is off to its best start ever. The Golden Bears won their sixth straight since their only loss of the season, a 77-63 setback at No. 3 Duke. It was Cal's fourth win in a row against Colorado, which still leads the series 5-4.Chucky Jeffery scored 10 of her 13 points in the second half, leading a rally by Colorado (11-2, 0-2). But she also committed a key turnover -- forced by Clarendon's tenacious defense in the final moments -- that denied the Buffaloes a chance to get off a final shot."Obviously, in a one-possession game, that was huge," Cal coach Lindsay Gottlieb said. "It's two great players going at it, and we're lucky to have Layshia. She's just a great leader and an all-around complete kid on the offensive and defensive end."It was the second consecutive loss in the league for Colorado after an 11-0 start in nonconference play.Arielle Roberson added 11 points for Colorado, which lost to No. 4 Stanford in its Pac-12 opener Friday.With Cal leading 51-43 with less than three minutes left, Colorado ran off six straight points, capped by Brittany Wilson's fast-break layup with 16.7 seconds left.Clarendon missed two free throws, but Talia Caldwell managed to tie up Jeffery on the rebound, and the possession arrow gave the ball back to Cal. Clarendon was again fouled with 10.3 seconds left, and she made 1 of 2.But Colorado never got a chance to attempt a tying 3-pointer when Jeffery turned the ball over with 5.2 seconds to go.Cal again missed two free throws -- this time by Boyd -- but Jemerigbe pulled down the offensive rebound. Jemerigbe made a foul shot to finally clinch the victory."We were getting shoved under the rim," Colorado coach Linda Lappe said. "They were lower, more physical and quicker than us off the line. A lot of times, they were getting inside position before we had inside position and then they exploded up. I felt like our guards could have helped out a little more. But not getting those rebounds, I think, was the difference in the game."Jeffery echoed her coach's sentiments."We had more opportunities than we can ever expect (down the stretch)," Jeffery said. "We have to bear down and box out and get a rebound. They gave us opportunities to rebound. We have to get tougher."Cal outrebounded Colorado 43-34. It was the second straight time the Buffaloes had been outrebounded after either winning or tying the rebounding battle in their first 11 games, all wins.Copyright by STATS LLC and The Associated Press

Me and the hubby drove down Friday night, stayed at the Westgate Lake and Resort got it for $63 a night, and it was really nice we thought. We had a top floor overlooking the pool. We woke up late Saturday morning and went and shopped a little bit and then hit the pool and hot tub for a couple hours before getting ready. Hit Universal around 3pm to get our real tickets since we had just the confirmation paper from ticketsatwork.com (got two tickets for $101.00). Bought our EP passes online before heading down and has those ready as well. Went back to Nascar Cafe and had some dinner and relaxed a bit more before heading down to the entrance at 5:30. They started letting people in, we started right and hit Alice Cooper (pretty interesting) then hit Pen and Teller,(interesting again LOL) then decided to wait around a bit and watch Bill and Ted show ( LOVVVVVVVVVED IT) then continued to Walking Dead, (huge fan of the show so I loved the house as well) Gothic and Dead End, Silent Hill, never made it back around to House of Horrors got lost in the streets watching the scare actors and just enjoying the park. I will say that I was skeptical at first at buying the express passes because of the price but I am so glad we did. The longest wait the whole night was ten minutes into Silent Hill. We enjoyed it so much we will be going back next year. We rode one ride and that was the mummy. We have been to US many times so the rides weren't a big deal to make sure we rode them that night, just the HHN event. So to sum it up we had a amazing time and it was worth the 12 hr drive total to get there and home. And Westgate was enjoyable as well!
Thanks for sharing your report. I'm going to move this to the Trip Reports board which is more appropriate.

A pantsuit or pant suit, also known as a trouser suit outside the United States, is a woman's suit of clothing consisting of trousers and a matching or coordinating coat or jacket.
Formerly, the prevailing fashion for women included some form of coat, but paired with a skirt or dress—hence the name pantsuit.
The pantsuit was introduced in the 1920s, when a small number of women adopted a masculine style, including pantsuits, hats, and even canes and monocles. However, the term, "trouser suit" had been used in Britain during the First World War, with reference to women working in heavy industry.[1]
André Courrèges introduced long trousers for women as a fashion item in the late 1960s, and over the next 40 years pantsuits gradually became acceptable business wear for women. In 1966, designer Yves Saint-Laurent introduced his Le Smoking, an evening pantsuit for women that mimicked a man's tuxedo.[2] In Britain a social watershed was crossed in 1967 when Lady Chichester, wife of the navigator Sir Francis Chichester, wore a trouser suit when her husband was publicly knighted by Queen Elizabeth II.
Pantsuits were often deprecated as inappropriately masculine clothing for women. For example, until 1993, women were not permitted to wear pantsuits (or pants of any kind) on the United States Senate floor.[3] [4] [5] In 1993, Senators Barbara Mikulski and Carol Moseley Braun wore pants onto the floor in defiance of the rule, and female support staff followed soon after, with the rule being amended later that year by Senate Sergeant-at-Arms Martha Pope to allow women to wear pants on the floor so long as they also wore a jacket, thus allowing pantsuits, among other types of clothing. [6] [7]
Proponents name several advantages, including comfort, modesty, and removing the need for pantyhose.
Prominent pantsuit adopters[edit]
- Angela Merkel, the current Chancellor of Germany is widely known for wearing a number of trouser suits
- Hillary Clinton, who is well known for wearing pantsuits, and once referred to her presidential campaign staff as "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pantsuits" (in her August 26th, 2008 speech at the Democratic National Convention), a play on The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. [8]

A long title, forgive me!
For years the American Sexual Education program, has been well sad... ad gross insulting and downright aweful.
While Anti-Drug Programs in our schools have done better and acaully decreased, or helped to decrease drug useage in america, the same cannot be said of sex.
From Advocastes for Youth
"Substantial evidence of the effectiveness of comprehensive sex education has recently emerged. Comprehensive sex ed stresses abstinence and includes age-appropriate, medically accurate information about contraception. Comprehensive sex ed are also developmentally appropriate, introducing information on relationships, decision-making, assertiveness, and skill building to resist social/peer pressure, depending on grade-level.
As part of welfare reform, Congress passed legislation in 1996 allocating $50 million in federal funds for abstinence-only-until-marriage programs—which censor information about contraception. Since then, despite no evidence of the effectiveness of these programs and Americans' opposition to federal funding for them, the government has dumped more and more taxpayer money into unrealistic and unproven abstinence-only programs."
Absitence Only SEX ED is the most common in our schools, for the simple reason of Conversatives
Because of the Phenomamon known as Christ-Marraige-Sheild when a man and women get married, any sex between is protected by a magic sheild that stops the tramutation of STDs hard as it is to believe it is in fact true, or atleast this is what congress would have you to believe.
My Sex Ed Program is already over, it went a litte something like taht (A rahter ugly, and when i say ugly i mean UGLY, ahhh my god, hideous skinny black Christian-Straight (like an ugly version of Condelleza Rice except this chick had an STRD) she comes in and starts talking about sex and what it is (all the time i am trying to conceal my self from laughing and lashing back by her failure t mention gay-anything homosexual but oh well, she talks about than tell her story of her her man chearted on he, got clams and gave it her (She needs to find a better man imho.
i aint no guy of mine gonna be doing anything with some bimbo fag in the back of nightclub) any ways she show of us pics of ppl with STDS (up in their ass, and on their you know whats, horrible just horrible, she gives more lectures ( I KID YOU NOT, How God wants yout to wait until amrriage to have sex, GOD, oh thanks lady, like i need you to tell me what f-cking GOP is shoving down my throat every time i turn on FOX News, she goes on to say how women are used as tools of society and how they have short shorts and all this tuff (I know a few gays who have short shorts and trust me it aint good)she was obviously a feminist, but hey who isnt, pfft women (I am gay and i know feminists, nad live with them so i am totally allowed to say it, one quick question, is evcery lesbian a feminist? Just curious.
it ends with her showing 3 gifts to sybolize what you give your opposite-sex-jesus-worshipping-virgin-straight-conservative other on your honey moon, one all nice (Symbolizing Virgins), one sort of beat up (to Symbolize Re-born virgins), and one that looks like crap to symbolize Non virings who just fucked their couch last night (or something like that).
How do you think AMericans Sex Ed Program is? what is your expierence, share it, and and i will critique (and yes i think Gerlado should be shot)
In middle school, we watched videos about the "changes" we'd be going through during puberty (one was seriously called Raging Teens), which I already knew about, my mother having given me a comprehsive book on the subject when I was 11.
In ninth grade, I did get some in my biology class, but it was strictly scientific, no emotion/psychological information was presented. We learned about sexual intercourse, STD's, and birth control and their effectiveness. Since it's a Catholic school, the teacher brought up the "Catholic" method, but said it was the least effective of all of the things presented.
But in all honesty, I've learned MUCH more from books I've read and feel pretty well informed. School sex programs are shit!
I find there's glamour
In being a wallflower
With a stammer
I love what I am
And you won't change me
So take me how I am
I had sex-ed courses in 5th grade, 6th grade, 8th grade, and 9th grade, though the 8th and 9th grade courses were actually just "Health Class", which happened to include the sex-ed stuff. I went to an American International school in Singapore (the Singapore American School), so I'm not sure how that affected what we were being taught, but basically, we learned the biological aspects of sex, including about STDs and so on, and then about contraceptive methods and so on. Basically, what we were told was that the only sure way not to get anyone pregnant/get an STD was basically to not have sex, because then obviously nothing related to sex will happen. However, if you're gonna have sex, use condoms and/or other contraceptives and forms of protection (except don't use a female condom and a male condom at the same time . . . they'll be abrasives to each other and break). As for the social aspect, they were basically like, sex is not something you should be pressured into or do to please others (except for whomever you're having sex with). Basically, while boring, the sex-ed program was honest, straightforward, and not controlled by some right-wing nutjob going "JESUS HATES CONDOMS!!!"
In the US, our Health teacher (also the guidance counselor) was a strange mix of super-leftist and super-right-wing beliefs. She was an ultra-feminist and very pro-gay rights and such, very politically correct . . . at the same time, her ideas on sex were basically as such: 1)Abstinence is the only way to go unless you're married, 2)Women should not dress provocatively because they're basically just holding up big signs that say "I'm an Easy Lay!", 3)Condoms work, but not really, 4)You should never feel uncomfortable talking or thinking about sex, but you should also never ever do it unless you're married. It was really weird to have her stand there going on about how horrible our treatment of homosexuals is in today's society, and then in the next sentence tell you about how bad you're being if you dare to have sex before marriage and how you'll almost certainly get one or more debilitating disease and/or pregnant and end up on the streets sucking good citizens' tax money. Go figure.
At my school, all the girls watched a video (with parental consent of course) all about the menstrual cycle. In sixth grade, we were shown a different video that told us the exact same thing, only that year the boys got/had to watch a "special" video as well. In 7th grade, we learned more about it in our science class, but we had to have parental consent, yet again. At my high school, all student are required to take a health class in order to graduate. I took the class last year, and I didn't learn ANYTHING about sex. All I learned was don't do drugs, don't smoke, and don't drink. My teacher had been at the school since it first opened in the sixties. He didn't even touch the issue of sex with us. He didn't even go near it. The other health teacher at the school, however, apparently did. My friend had the other teacher and told me the teacher covered abstinance, birth control, safe sex, sexual harassment and abuse, and STDs. So overall, I don't think that I really learned anything from my school's health/sex ed program. I learned ALOt more from the books that my mom gave me when I was 11 than from any of those teachers/videos.
Here in the U.K we have thankfully managed to miss out on all that abstinance crap (man, I hate that viewpoint). Not that we actually learn anything. We've had barely any sex ed lessons, but at least we don't get taught that sex without a small metal ring on your finger will kill you
"Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suf-fer-ing"
The sex ed program where I live in Canada isn't bad, it actually gives you LOTS of plausible methods of contraception and STD prevention...but only for straight people. I filled out a form when the lady was done and said that it needed some direction at GLBTQ teens.
And no, not all lesbians are feminists. I am, but my girlfriend isn't. She laughs hysterically when I read feminist magazines and books.
british sex ed is rubbish, we get the basics at primary school then its never mentioned again. the existance homosexuality is of course ignored and we are left with a bunch of very confused queer kids sitting amoung the straight kids who everything just clicked for.
and to answer your other question - im a lesbian but im definately not a feminist! they dont automatically go together.
+ if i cant be a good example ill just have to be a horrible warning +
**you must be the change you wish to see in the world**
Here in Australia we did a bit on sex in science but nothing to do with homosexuality and then we did a 3 week health course that was supposed to be sex ed but it was really what do guys like in girls and what do girls like in guys. It was so stupid.
And we'll explore strange new worlds. Seek out new life and new civilizations. We will go boldly where no man has gone before.
Zefram Cochrane
Hahaha...At my school (gotta love those catholic schools) This guy came in and told us if we had sex before marriage our marriages would fail (same for masturbation) and that if we'd already had sex or masturbated we could be born again virgins. He then went on to tell us we should write letters to our future husbands/wives about how we'd saved ourselves for them.
Our guy did mention homosexuality though, and apparently i'm not going to heaven, but I can be healed.
At the end he handed out prayer booklets and chastity charms.
That was the last i've heard....
"You cnat change the world you can only change yourself."
Hahahaha! "The Chastity Charms" sounds like a punk band.
at my school (U.S. inner-city public school)
our health teacher gave us hand outs of diagrams of the penis and vagina, and explained each part. she never told us not to have sex, or to have it...just to be careful, and this speaker came in and talked all about stds. the end. our classes are a joke, the teacher gave me permission every day to miss her class. in elementary school, our school dropped the health ed. program the year before us, middle school, they explained sex a very little bit...and talked to the girls and boys separately. in the girls room our p.e. teacher discussed what may happen when we start liking someone. if i remember correctly she never made it seem only fit for heterosexuals...and rumors are that her one daughter is a lesbian, and in the army
I tend to laugh at my friend's public school's idea of Sex ed, it is pretty much the abstinance or protection stuff (that stuff bounces off rather easily). My school does things a little more scary. They teach it in religion class, (My school's religion classes are all taught by either perverted ex-priest or the overly giddy theologian but for sex-ed they bring in the bio-teacher who was a forensic lab technician), that makes it amusing to watch. Second after they tell us all the ways to have safe sex (including my personal favorite from the bio-teacher "Simple, the safest sex is cybering, You can't touch him or her and it keeps all the mystery"), they go on about how to say "no". After that they tell us the consequences of Sex and then they bring out the pre-schoolers and the robot babies, we have to take care of those babies and deal with a bunch of misbehaving pre-schoolers. That experience pretty much unlikely to have sex with a male, but that doesn't stop some of my fellow classmates. I say te one my school does is rather affective because our drop out rate is lower then it was back when they did the traditional stuff, the whole baby thing drove my friends nuts.
The whole Catholic Veiw on sex is save for Junior Religion, Just plain sex ed is done in freshmen year. I am a Junior, the Catholic veiw on sex is highly amusing.
I use to be Someday's Dreamer but something happened to my account. Kaorin is not a fangirl of Sakaki, the last episode of Azumanga Daioh is all you need as proof.
Thanks for all your story thingies i think i may end up make a section of them... I need to work on my HTML/XML Skills anyways and i've done nothing with my webspace for ages...
"Barralai, I have to say, you're probably the most arrogant, selfish bastard I've ever come across. And that's saying a lot, because I'm usually quite nice."

Probability of Success
2009-10: Dominik Kubalik had 63 points in 33 games for Czech U16 champion HC Plzen. He scored 39 goals with 24 assists and was +62 with 6 penalty minutes.
2010-11: Kubalik played for the HC Plzen U18 and U16 teams as a 15-year-old. He scored 38 goals with 21 assists and was +24 with 32 penalty minutes in 42 games with the U18 team.

2011-12: Kubalik made his pro hockey debut in the Czech Extraliga, playing eight games for HC Plzen. He spent the bulk of the season with the club's U20 and U18 teams and represented the Czech Republic in international play. He scored 1 goal and was -2 in Extraliga play. Kubalik scored 11 goals with 6 assists and was -9 with 22 penalty minutes in 24 regular season games for Plzen's U20 team and had 1 goal with 2 assists, finishing -4, in two playoff games. In 22 games for the HC Plzen U18 team, including two playoff games, he scored 25 goals with 16 assists and was +23 with 14 penalty minutes.

Talent Analysis
Kubalik was a highly regarded CHL draft pick, and went in the first round to the Sudbury Wolves in 2012. He is a big strong kid who can skate well and move the puck well at the CHL level. While he could stand to gain a little more weight to ward of opposing checkers, Kubalik brings a little bit of nasty to his game and isn't afraid to throw the body around and mix it up. His offensive upside is limited, but he has the good look of a potential energy forward.
Kubalik is one of the younger players in the Kings' system at age 17. He has played just one year with the Sudbury Wolves and has plenty of time to grow and mature in the coming years.

Acer Aspire M5-481PT-6488
- Category: Notebook Computers
December 5, 2012
Editor's Rating
- Attractive aluminum chassis
- Responsive touch screen
- DVD optical drive
- Good overall performance
- Display quality could be better
- Some minor clickpad issues
Acer Aspire M5-481PT is a new 14-inch Windows 8 touch screen laptop that has a solid metal chassis, a DVD disc drive, solid performance and good battery life all for a competitive price. The quality of the display could be better and we had some issues with the clickpad, which are both disappointing.
The rush of new Windows 8 laptops has been overwhelming. Just in the last month, we've reviewed almost a dozen new laptops, most of which have a touch screen to take advantage of the new touch-friendly interface of Windows 8. This Acer M5 is a Best Buy-exclusive offering that looks to play it traditional by keeping the laptop look and feel.
One thing that we really like about the Acer Aspire M5-481PT is the smooth brushed aluminum metal finish. It looks absolutely polished and sexy (for lack of a better word). It measures 13.4 x 9.7 x 0.8-inches and weighs 4.4-pounds, so its definitely portable too.
When you open the lid, the M5 looks eerily similar to the Apple MacBook Pro with a silver keyboard deck, black chiclet-style backlit keyboard and large multitouch clickpad. We really like the look of the interior and we think most users will too. The keyboard is comfortable to use and offered a good amount of click. One thing we didn't like was the placement of the power button, which is stealthily placed on the front edge.
We did have some minor issues with the multitouch clickpad, especially when we tried multitouch gestures. There were times that these gestures worked flawlessly and other times where they didn't work at all or were choppy. We aren't sure why but it definitely made us notice.
The 14-inch 1366 x 768-pixel display is framed by a narrow black bezel and features a multitouch panel. The display's quality could definitely be better as it lacks wide viewing angles and sometimes the colors get a bit washed out. The display lays flat a nearly 180 degrees for touch-friendly use. The touch screen aspect to the display worked great and made up for the issues we had with the clickpad.
In terms of connectivity, the Acer Aspire M5-481PT has two USB 3.0 ports, HDMI-out, Ethernet, a headphone/microphone combo jack and an SD card reader. There is also a tray-loading DVD+/-RW optical drive, which is something uncommon on new Windows 8 touch screen laptops. Wireless connectivity includes both 802.11n Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
The only configuration for this Best Buy-exclusive laptop includes an Intel Core i5-3317U 3rd-gen 1.7GHz CPU, 6GB of RAM, a 500GB 5400RPM hard drive, a 20GB solid-state drive and integrated Intel HD 4000 graphics. The choice of CPU is extremely common among all other similar laptops making their way onto the market but the 6GB of memory is a little more than the typical 4GB. During our use, we found the M5 to be zippy and had no performance-related issues. Performance is definitely on-par with about every other similar 14-inch Windows 8-powered laptop.
The integrated Intel graphics mean that this laptop isn't for any 3D gaming, but most users that would be looking to buy this laptop won't miss that.
Battery life with the Acer Aspire M5 tapped out at around 6-hours, which is about average for the 14-inch laptop category.

ENGLEWOOD, COLO., and VANCOUVER, WASH.– April 3, 2013 – Catholic Health Initiatives and PeaceHealth agreed on Tuesday to suspend discussions to explore the formation of a unified, integrated regional health system in the Pacific Northwest.
The two health systems signed a nonbinding agreement in mid-August to create an innovative partnership that would allow both organizations to strengthen and extend their healing ministries.
Even with their common traditions of service, CHI and PeaceHealth were unable to develop an integrated model that would provide the desired benefits and serve the best interests of both organizations. CHI and PeaceHealth will remain actively engaged in exploring other opportunities to work together to strengthen their respective ministries in the Pacific Northwest.
Through this process, CHI and PeaceHealth leaders developed a strong relationship based on the compatibility of the organizations, and they will continue to seek opportunities for growth and creative ways to better serve their communities.

Although crates can be used effectively in expert hands to house-train puppies, they are all too often misused unintentionally in the hands of the average owner. Leaving a dog crated for hours without supervision is abuse. Period. Once the lesson about eliminating outdoors has been learned, the dog should not be locked in the crate any more. A dog is not a toy and should not just be stashed away in a box when you have other things to do.
Recently a dog in my neighborhood who was left unsupervised in a crate was caught in the flames when a fire broke out in that room. He was howling in agony by the time they managed to rescue him. He has lost his ears and eyes and much of his skin and will suffer through months of extreme pain while he heals. If they had left him free he could have just run out of the room. Many people think the owners should have been charged with animal abuse. And yet, they do love the dog and had no idea they were doing anything wrong. As I said, crates are often misused unintentionally.

The hedgehog signaling pathway organizes the developing ventral neural tube by establishing distinct neural progenitor fates along the dorsoventral axis. Smoothened (Smo) is essential for all Hedgehog (Hh) signaling, and genetic inactivation of Smo cells autonomously blocks the ability of cells to transduce the Hh signal. Using a chimeric approach, we examined the behavior of Smo null mutant neural progenitor cells in the developing vertebrate spinal cord, and we show that direct Hh signaling is essential for the specification of all ventral progenitor populations. Further, Hh signaling extends into the dorsal half of the spinal cord including the intermediate Dbx expression domain. Surprisingly, in the absence of Sonic hedgehog (Shh), we observe the presence of a Smo-dependent Hh signaling activity operating in the ventral half of the spinal cord that most likely reflects Indian hedgehog (Ihh) signaling originating from the underlying gut endoderm. Comparative studies of Shh, Smo, and Gli3 single and compound mutants reveal that Hh signaling acts in part to specify neural cell identity by counteracting the repressive action of Gli3 on p0, p1, p2, and pMN formation. However, whereas these cell identities are restored in Gli3/Smo compound mutants, correct stratification of the rescued ventral cell types is lost. Thus, Hh signaling is essential for organizing ventral cell pattern, possibly through the control of differential cell affinities.
