Leonardo Hits SXSW With His Baseball Cap, BFFs, and Girlfriend Erin
Leonardo DiCaprio had his best friends by his side last night for the Mobli 2.0 Launch Party in Austin. The city is currently hosting SXSW, and Leo's making the rounds with pals Lukas Haas, Kevin Connolly, and Tobey Maguire. In a rare move, Leo posed on the red carpet with his pals but was still practically unrecognizable with his trademark baseball cap pulled down low. Once inside Kenichi, Leo met up with his Victoria's Secret Angel girlfriend, Erin Heatherton. Kevin retweeted a picture of Leo's love Erin Heatherton from yesterday in Texas. Leo, meanwhile, posted on Mobli and shared an image of him and Tobey chilling in a booth. The night was part fun and part business for Leo, who's one of Mobli's investors.

Why doesnt Di Caprio pay to have his buddy Haas have his ears pinned back? It is a deformity that would be kind to address.

In the continuing saga of my criticism of critical thinking.... An astute reader pointed out that some people give their hearts and trust too easily. That's definitely true, and in fact I suspect one reason I'm so quick to wave the pom-poms for trust and the leap of faith is precisely that I'm a trust-and-leap kind of person. I realize that when I criticize the hypercautious, "every doubt is a reason to say no, every answer is just another more troubling question" approach I'm also offering a … [Read more...]
The Twelve Steps and/as/vs. Religion
There is no way I will regret writing this post!Anyway, Helen Rittelmeyer has a provocative piece called "The Language of Addiction Takes Over," which makes a bunch of great points despite an underlying framework I think may be wrong.

Tons of these have popped up around our yard over the past month. Currently about 2ft tall. Leaves and stems are green and hairy, but not prickly. I can't tell if they're rudbeckia triloba (fun) or giant ragweed (not fun).
Looks like leggy Rudbeckia triloba, does this one grow in part shade? My volunteers grow more compact but get full sun. And they do reseed very successfully, so very probably Rudbeckia
Thank you! Yep, lots of these all over shady parts of the yard.
Could also be Rudbeckia laciniata, cutleaf coneflower.
I'm pretty sure that's giant ragweed, just one stem volunteering like that. It really does look similar to R. laciniata but if it was a single plant it would make more robust basal growth before sending up a stalk.

Saturday night, February 26th, at about 9-9:30 PM (PT), an unprecedented LAPD SWAT team raid took place against the broadcast studios and art galleries of HBO star, best-selling author, public access icon, Internet broadcaster and sex educator Dr. Susan Block. Heavily armed elite SWAT team officers wearing bulletproof vests and carrying high-powered rifles forcibly entered the building, without warrants, about 45 minutes before the scheduled live broadcast of "The Dr. Susan Block Show" on www.radiosuzy1.com. Helicopter gunships with nightvision technology buzzed overhead. Eyewitnesses said that SWAT Team members with what looked like M16 rifles surrounded the building and cordoned off the area to pedestrians. The operation was coordinated by Metro Vice Squad and Central Divisions of the LAPD, including Watch Commander Valez, Sergeant Sanchez, Central Vice Unit Sergeant Kilgore, Detective Katherine Robi, and Officers Morales, Moreno and Malik. Film clips from security cameras show LAPD with guns on Max Lobkowicz, executive producer of the show, Kim Mendoza, art curator, and several other staff members. When Dr. Block stepped out of her dressing room she was held at gunpoint by LAPD uniformed officers. She was detained and questioned, separate from her staff, for about twenty minutes, while the producers, camera people and some of the guests were frisked. Then, the staff and guests were permitted back upstairs (some 50 guests crossed police lines to get in), and the show was allowed to go on. But most of the officers stayed, watching, searching and intimidating guests and staff, for some two and a half hours. What was this all about? LAPD officials don't really know. Here was their story when they arrived. "Four armed Hispanic men who had robbed and kidnapped someone were seen forcing their way into the building by a passerby." The SWAT team was there to search for the gunmen. They determined that there were no gunmen or hostages in the building within a few minutes. Yet they spent two and a half hours inside Dr. Block's studios and galleries, although official police records state they were here for just 10 minutes. Do we have a Ramparts in every neighborhood? They interrogated Dr. Block, her staff and guests about the nature of the show, which half of the officers said they watched. Several officers blocked off access to critical Internet broadcast servers and other equipment. Vice specialists searched through film archives; Other officers looked through the studio refrigerator, searched the bathrooms, combed through the books in the library, monitored Chief Engineer Theron Marks' mixing of the live show, and checked out the erotic art in the galleries. Finally, they confiscated a copy of Dr. Block's HBO show "Radio Sex TV" (executive produced by HBO Senior Vice President in charge of Documentary and Late Night Programming Sheila Nevins, and produced by Dave Bell, who, coincidentally, all produces the reality TV series "LAPD"). What caused this bizarre but fully armed police raid on a downtown LA art gallery and broadcast studio? Was it the smell of sex? The erotic art ? The controversial, scantily clad cable host? Her producer/husband's radical past? The Jonathan Taylor Spielberg connection? ? The interracial composition of the staff? The building's proximity to the new all-powerful Staples Center? This is the second, and far more physically threatening LAPD assault upon "The Dr. Susan Block Show." The first, which took place in January, 1998, also occurred under mysterious circumstances and resulted in no charges being pressed. Under the direction of Mayor Dick Riordan and Chief Bernard C. Parks, this kind of anti-culture, anti-art, anti-sex police action becomes a major stumbling block for redevelopment and economic growth of downtown Los Angeles, not to mention an assault on our basic freedoms as individuals. We urge the Mayor's Office, the Chief's Office, the LA City Council and its members to investigate this government invasion and attack upon the dignity and freedom of all Angelenos. This city is not just made up of major film companies like Disney, but of emerging studios with diverse visions. We ask our subscribers, viewers, listeners, clients, friends and fans to call the mayor's office at 213.847.2489. We ask our subscribers to send this message on to friends, media contacts, art galleries, political representatives and other appropriate parties. For demonstration information, call the offices of BlockFilms at 213.749.1330. Ask for Max Lobkowicz or Kim Mendoza. Dr. Susan Block's Journal will carry the full story with photos in about a week. In the meantime, we encourage all artists, journalists and others to help us put a stop to this kind of police intimidation.

You want to have something fun to do in winter, right?
When John Bozeman passed through the Gallatin Valley it was cold. When the railroad made it's way down Bozeman Pass it was cold. And when the town paved 19th all the way out to Springhill Road and things started booming and growing into the vibrant college town and Yellowstone gateway it is today — it was cold. There are days you can stand on the ridge of the Bridgers and gaze down into this verdant valley of ours in the green of June but you better remind yourself that this is just a pause in the action. Bozeman is a winter town. But more importantly it is a place that addresses the six months of winter with a spirit and sense of joy. A place where it's not a matter of getting through winter but getting all you can get out of winter. Which naturally leads us to the question, "If six months of winter is not enough, how about twelve?"

Review Details
Northern Brewer's White House Honey Porter 1 Gallon Recipe Kit
- Product Review (submitted on June 14, 2014):
- The White House Porter was my 1st hombrew that I made, and I am happy that I selected this recipe . I opened my 1st porter a week after bottling and it barley had any carbonation, the flavor was a little too strong, so I waited the full two weeks before my second beer. Wow, what a difference this made. The carbonation is spot on and the flavor is great. When I tried the sample (before bottling) my porter was a little too sweet for my taste, so I added a bit of french pressed coffee (about 2.5 oz of brewed coffee) into the fermenter before bottling. The coffee is strong, but the porter tastes great. The color of the porter is very dark, and if I didn't know that I brewed it myself I wouldn't know it was a homebrew. I would definitely buy this again.

Alexander Wang Fashion Shows | Pictures
We Can't Wait For the Next Iteration of Alexander Wang's Edgy-Cool Chick
By now, the Wang girl is totally iconic. It's hard to imagine the world without Alexander Wang's vision of the downtown, edgy-cool chick. While urban street style existed before 2007, the California-bred designer took that unmistakable look and refined it into something so insanely chic and wearable that every girl wanted a piece. Whether it's his slouchy denim, killer pebbled-leather bags, or body-con dresses, his creations never fail to impress with a unique brand of It factor. Currently, Alexander Wang is a globally recognized brand while also at the helm of the Balenciaga, where he infuses his aesthetic into the established brand. Take a look back with this runway retrospective of Alexander Wang's relatively short — but unstoppable — career.

Macau GenealogyEdit This Page
From FamilySearch Wiki
Guide to Macau ancestry, family history and genealogy parish registers, transcripts, census records, birth records, marriage records, and death records.
Macau is one of two Special Administrative Regions of China,together with Hong Kong. Macau lies on the western side of the Pearl River Delta across from Hong Kong, and it is also bordered by Guangdong Province to the north and the South China Sea to the east and south.
The population is about 650,000 living in an area of 31.3 km2 (12.1 sq mi), and as such it is the most densely populated region in the world.
Macau is a former colony of Portugal, and was administered by Portugal from the mid-16th century until late 1999, when it was the last remaining European colony in Asia.
Portuguese traders first settled in Macau in the 1550s. In 1557, Macau was rented to Portugal by the Ming Dynasty as a trading port. The Portuguese administered the city under Chinese authority and sovereignty until 1887, when Macau became a colony of the Portuguese Empire. As a former Portuguese enclave, it is uniquely Portuguese in character, with a legal system, architecture, and administration all reflective of that European country.
Sovereignty over Macau was transferred back to China on 20 December 1999, following the same reversion to China of Hong Kong. The Sino-Portuguese Joint Declaration and the Basic Law of Macau stipulate that Macau operate with a high degree of autonomy until at least 2049, fifty years after the transfer.
Languages Spoken
Portuguese is still one of the official languages, but is slowly being replaced by the native Cantonese, and the official Mandarin dialects of China.
Uniquely for Asia, the Macau economy is largely built on the gambling industry, and a number of USA gambling Corporations have set up casinos of the American style to cater to the largely Chinese and Hong Kong citizen's thirst for this type of activity.

Oosthuizen in the clear
Tue, 02 Oct 2012 15:32
The neurosurgeon is happy with his progress
Springbok prop Coenie Oosthuizen has been cleared to play after an examination by a neurosurgeon in Durban on Tuesday.
Oosthuizen injured his neck during his Test debut for South Africa against England in Durban in June. He spent almost three months doing rehabilitation and returned to action in an Currie Cup match last weekend.
Following the match, Oosthuizen experienced some muscle stiffness and it was decided to send him for a further consultation with a neurosurgeon in Durban, who was in agreement with the previous assessments of his injury.
"We wanted to ensure that we don't put Coenie at undue risk by playing him," said Springbok team doctor Craig Roberts.
"The neurosurgeon is happy with his progress and the scans and has declared him fit to play."
Springbok coach Heyneke Meyer said: "Our players are our greatest assets and I'm happy to have Coenie available again this weekend.
"We will always consider the players' welfare first which is why we decided to get several opinions on Coenie's neck."

Thousands of heart difibrillators recalled by Guidant Corp.
Published: Saturday, June 18, 2005 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, June 17, 2005 at 11:00 p.m.
INDIANAPOLIS | Guidant Corp. on Friday voluntarily recalled nearly 50,000 of its cardiac defibrillators implanted in patients worldwide because of potential malfunctions in the devices.
The recall includes:
n The Prizm 2 DR/sn The Contak Renewal n Contak Renewal 2
Indianapolis-based Guidant said it was advising physicians about the safety of several defibrillator models, which have failed at least 45 times and have caused at least two deaths through May 30. The company has offered to replace some of the devices but has not said that replacement of any is necessary.
The recall includes about 38,000 devices used by patients in the United States.
"This is a voluntary recall," U.S. Food and Drug Administration spokeswoman Julie Zawisza said. "We're in complete agreement that they need to do that."
Guidant came under fire this spring after reports that it failed to alert physicians about potential problems with the Ventak Prizm 2 DR model defibrillator. The recall on Friday includes the Prizm 2 DR, the Contak Renewal and Contak Renewal 2, the Ventak Prizm AVT, Vitality AVT, Renewal 3 AVT and Renewal 4 AVT ICDs.
The company said about 63,000 of the devices had been implanted, with nearly 50,000 still in use.
Guidant said patients implanted with those devices should continue to see their doctors at three-month intervals and that any patient who recently received a defibrillator shock should consult with their physician.
The company said a programming change can be performed for the Prizm AVT, Vitality AVT and Renewal AVT devices at a physician's office to reduce the risk of a short circuit, while defective Prizm 2 DR and Contak Renewal devices will be replaced at no charge.
"Patient safety is paramount and our highest priority," Guidant CEO Ronald W. Dollens said in a statement. "Guidant takes seriously its responsibility to create the most reliable products and services, enhance patient outcome and limit adverse events to patients."
Implanted defibrillators shock the heart back into a normal rhythm when it starts beating irregularly.
Earlier this month, Guidant stood by its decision to continue selling the Prizm 2 DR for months after a potential flaw prompted a redesign, saying the original device was still reliable.
In April, the company told doctors that the Prizm 2 DR defibrillator had failed in a small number of cases because of an electrical flaw. It also said that it had fixed the flaw in devices made after mid-2002.
No failures in the Prizm 2 DR has been reported since April 2002. The faulty Contak Renewal defibrillators were manufactured on or before Aug. 26, 2004, Guidant said.
A Pennsylvania man sued Guidant on June 1, claiming the company is financially liable to all patients implanted with one of its heart defibrillators because it did not tell them the devices could short-circuit. Lawyers for 74-year-old John Brennan said they hoped to make the legal complaint into a class-action lawsuit.
Shares of Guidant fell 80 cents, or 1.1 percent, to $72.86 in afternoon trading on the New York Stock Exchange, where they have traded in a 52-week range of $49.95 to $75.15.
Guidant shareholders in April voted overwhelmingly in favor of a planned $25.4 billion acquisition by Johnson & Johnson. The merger, which still must win regulatory approval in the United States and Europe, would be the largest business deal in the 119-year history of New Brunswick, N.J.-based health care products giant J&J. J&J has said it expects to complete the acquisition during the third quarter.
Johnson & Johnson did not immediately return a message.

How to Maintain Hinges on a 2-drawer Armoire

Hinges on wardrobe armoires are built to endure constant use, but you can extend their life through proper maintenance. Here are a few tips on making sure the hinges on your 2-drawer armoire last as long as possible.

Best Reasons to Have a California King Bed
Similar in size to a standard king bed, a California king bed is four inches longer, allowing a lot of extra room top to bottom. A California king bed measures 72 inches wide and 84 inches long, and a standard king mattress measures 76 inches wide and 80 inches long, so while a California king mattress is four inches longer, it is also about four inches thinner than a standard king bed. Making a decision between the two might be difficult. Ultimately, both are great options, but there are a few conditions that might make a California king size bed the clear choice. Before you pick which king mattress is right for you, here are a few of the best reasons to choose a California king bed.

Conversion Chart - Millimeters to Inches
The dimensions for most jewelry and watches are given in millimeters, but if you aren't familiar with the metric system, you may be unsure about the size of the piece. Fifty millimeters may sound like a lot, so it may surprise you when you see that it's only about 2 inches. If the metric system is a mystery to you, don't buy another pair of earrings or a new watch until you refer to our conversion chart, so you'll know exactly what you're going to get when you're online shopping. Many of our product images are also shown with a ruler, so you can get an even better idea of what s piece will look like when it arrives at your front door.
Popular Types of Quilts
Out of all the bedding made, quilts may be the most diverse. Quilts are produced in all kinds of colors, patterns, sizes, styles and types. If you're looking for a quilt but don't know where to start, take a look at the popular types of quilts below to learn more about this beautiful kind of bedding. Amish quilts: These beautiful quilts reflect the Amish way of living and feature solid colors, deep hues, geometric patterns and very little embellishment. Amish quilts contain the highest quality of construction and stitching, and, sometimes, the wonderful stitch patterns (scrolls, feathers) contrast with the simple backgrounds of their quilts. Applique quilts: These quilts use a French needlework technique where fabric pieces are sewn onto another piece of material to create a design. Applique is used extensively in the quilting process and is not to be confused with patchwork. Patchwork pieces are joined together; applique is sewn on top of the whole piece. Baltimore album quilts: Baltimore album quilts came from Maryland in the early 1800s. Each block in the design of these quilts is appliqued differently, often in ornate floral patterns. Bangladeshi quilts: These quilts are made with layers of Saree cloth. Saree cloth is silk cloth used by women of India to wrap and fold around the body as a garment. The cloth is usually 40 to 60 inches wide by 6 yards long. These quilts are used as bedding or as decorative pieces. Bargello quilts: Bargello quilts are created with offset squares in an up-and-down geometric "V" pattern. The small squares of different fabrics and the colorful designs make these quilts true works of art. Hawaiian quilts: Hawaiian quilts are not pieced, and they usually showcase a large, symmetrical applique in the center of the quilt. Most often the background is white or another solid color. Patchwork quilts: Patchwork quilts are constructed of many small pieces of fabric which are put together in an improvised or irregular pattern. This is a well-known quilt style, and examples of historical patchwork quilts are found in many museums. Ralli quilts: Ralli quilts, sometimes known as rilli quilts, are traditional quilts made in India or Pakistan. There is an abundance of embroidery as well as applique on the patchwork patterns. Star quilts: Star quilts are created with a large star shape, or several star shapes, dominating the pattern. Wedding ring quilts: Wedding ring quilts are crafted in a design of interlocking rings. This pattern goes far back in history: in the fourth century it was used to decorate drinking cups in Rome. Wedding ring quilts are highly popular and make wonderful wedding gifts. If you're looking for a gift to please an engaged couple, you can't go wrong with a wedding quilt. Bedding always makes a significant gift for the bride and groom, and a quilt with coordinating Egyptian cotton sheets can be even better. View All Quilts Back to Guides Directory View All Quilts

Product Description
UV Filters
A UV filter is used to reduce UV rays from entering the lens and striking the film. Modern lenses often have UV protection built into them as well as digital sensors, however, UV filters are commonly used to help protect the surface of the lens from scratches, smudges, dirt and other hazards.
CPL Filters
A polarizer is different than most filters in that it is composed of two pieces of glass, mounted independently inside a round frame so that one can be rotated relative to the other. As it is rotated, it increasingly cuts out glare and haze. With an SLR, you can actually observe this change through the viewfinder. Polarizers reduce glare from water, glass, or any non-metallic surface. You can also use a polarizer filter to darken blue skies.
ND4 (Neutral Density) Filter
Reduces the amount of light reaching the film without affecting the color.
Applies slow shutter speed under strong sunlight exposure.
Allows wider apertures, effectively decreasing depth of field.
Great for portraiture and outdoor scenes in strong sunlight.
Compatible with:
Any camera with 40.5mm lens thread ( Please make sure the diameter of your camera lens is 40.5mm)
Nikon 1 J1 V1 V2
Samsung NX1100 NX300 NX2000 with 20-50mm Lens

iTunes U goes International, eh
Queens University of Kingston, Ontario is the first non-United-Statesian university to begin offering downloadable content via the iTunes music store. Yesterday, Queens joined Stanford, Duke, and Berkeley as part of iTunes U, Apple's free hosted service for colleges and universities. The Queens University site offers "public lectures, debates, sports highlights and more"--or at least it plans to. Current highlights include convocation lectures (which I am sure are just as fascinating as the material suggests--isn't it interesting that some of the first content caters to administration vanity?), lectures from EECS assistant professor Tom Dean, and material from CFRC, the student-run radio station.
Thanks, Ben.

Could anyone help me diagnose what this powdery material might be at the top of the funnel separator? I made a batch of IPA using WY1217 (West Coast IPA) and wanted to start some slants from it. Obviously, I had already brewed and should have started with the original stuff but... After racking the beer from the primary, and adding about a gallon of cooled, boiled H2O to the primary, I filled this conical funnel separator. After about a week, I had just found some Agar Agar and made my starter tubes. I pulled some of the yeast from the conical and made the slants. About 3 days later, I noticed this powdery material at the top of the conical. And low and behold the same powdery white material showed up in my slants. Has anyone else seen this and if so, have you an idea what it might be? Is it nothing to worry about or should I take a small dose and skip the flu shot this year ?http://www.homebrewtalk.com/photo/wh...-be-61630.html Thanks, BB
Are you describing what looks to be growing on the glass, just beneath the foil? Mold is usually described as powdery. Those slants are a no-go if they are contaminated. I had a batch with some mold and I could taste it, it was very apparent. Have you sampled it?
Bacteria are the only culture some people have.
Yes, I am talking about what is growing on the top of the glass. Didn't think I wanted to taste it but ... As far as the slants go, can this be cleaned and then re-autoclaved? Thanks, BB
I took a sample of this powdery stuff and put it in the scanning electron microscope to see what it looked like. Can any of you organic people able to tell me what this stuff is?

Recent Silver Lake Reviews
An absolute gem in the heart of paradise! Perfect!
Our group consists of several couples, all young professionals. The house itself is clean, stylish, and spacious, with plenty of common areas indoors and out for spending time with one another. The kitchen and main living area are perfect for entertaining indoors, with clear views facing west, right out over Lake Michigan. Wrapping around the kitchen and living area is a large deck, perfect for entertaining outdoors, and also with incredible views of the lake. In summary, the house does not disappoint at all, and compliments very well the surrounding scenery.
As for location, this was by far our group's best rental experience yet. The house is nestled among the sand dunes, and it is just a short walk to a westward facing, soft sand beach - perfect for swimming, relaxing, and tossing a frisbee or football. We enjoyed perfect weather and the beach was a big hit for everyone - both all day and into the evening.
In summary, everyone was thrilled with every aspect of the property and its surroundings. All in all, and compared to the other homes we've rented, there was not one reason for complaint by anyone in the group. We will return to the area next summer, and we'll certainly have our sights set on staying here again!
If you want to get away from it all and still enjoy all modern conveniences, this is it! Our family of 10 (3 generations) spent a week at the lakefront 'castle' and cherished every minute of it. The location is very private and the beach is wonderful, complete with wooden beach chairs, volleyball net, 2 ocean kayaks, and a firepit which we made use of every evening while watching the sunset (firewood can be purchased nearby).
The house itself offers all imaginable comforts and is fully equipped in every respect, including kid's toys, foosball and ping-pong tables, games, even a hidden 'secret room' for the kids to find (which proved to be quite a fun challenge).
The home is beautifully maintained and the directions by the owner were easy to follow. We found that the pictures really don't do it justice and were most pleasantly surprised. There is no lack of anything.
We enjoyed lots of fun things in the area, dune buggy riding, renting a pontoon boat on Silver Lake, horseback riding, etc. Most of our meals were eaten in except for one dinner at the Applewood Restaurant on the golf course nearby (5 minute drive) which was quite good.
This was our first stay on Lake Michigan. Compared to the Atlantic, there is lots to be said for crystal clear water (yes, it's a bit chilly), no debris on the beach, no jelly fish or sharks, no salt water, no tide. Nothing but fine sand, huge dunes, and spectacular sunsets! We loved it!
As a footnote, there are lots of steps both inside and out which might be a bit difficult to negotiate for those who are physically challenged. For the rest of us, it was an excuse to double up on dessert. :)
A very special thank you to the owners for letting us share this beautiful home.

Coming up: another "non-event" for brakes? That's what Phase Two of new federal stopping-distance requirements will be for truck operators, according to people we talked with. Stronger, higher-performance brakes on certain vehicles won't even cost much more in most cases. But like Phase One two years ago, which was hardly noticed by truckers, Phase Two represents a lot of work for brake makers and truck builders.

The more you learn about medicine and science, the more you should think, nothing is impossible. Menopause can happen to children, people who've never smoked can get lung cancer, and one in 10,000 people (including actress Catherine O'Hara) have their liver on the left side of their body (situs inversus). It should not surprise you then, to learn that men too can have endometriosis.
Without proper uteri, men clearly don't experience endometriosis in the same way as women. So where then does the endometrial tissue come from? According to a few case reports from the 1980s, endometriosis, or the abnormal location and presentation of endometrial tissue, can arise from remnant uterine tissue in men.
In other words, as the embryo divides in the womb and forms landmark ridges and clefts that separate female from male genetalia (a process that normally occurs between eight and 16 weeks gestation), the possibility exists for remnants of the opposite sex to remain behind.
This is, perhaps, what happened in one of the aforementioned case reports, an elderly man undergoing treatment with TACE (chlorotrianisene), an estrogen drug used to treat prostate cancer. The patient had been taking TACE for over 10 years for an adenocarcinoma of the prostate, when doctors found that he also had an endometrioma (mass of endometrial uterine tissue) of the lower abdominal wall. In the report, doctors denied the possibility of any remnant uterine tissue, but a postmortem exam/autopsy was never performed to confirm their theory.
If left-over uterine tissue was the answer, then perhaps feeding it estrogen through TACE treatment made it a more obvious find. The prostatic utricle, a barely noticeable out pouching in the portion of the urethra that passes through the prostate, is also the obliterated mullarian duct, an embryonic structure that also forms the uterus and fallopian tubes in little girls. So it makes sense that if this never went away (because remember, we all start with the parts of little girls), a common complication of female genital anatomy, endometriosis, is entirely possible.
What you are describing here also sounds like PMDS (Pre-Mullerian Duct Syndrome). As someone who was born natally (to outward appearances) male, I have struggled with accepting that I could have a rare condition like this, but the evidence in my case is so overwhelming that a local intersex group welcomed me open arms into their group.
It was enough of a struggle for me to admit I was transsexual. To find out in my mid-40s that my gender issues were because I was actually possibly a pseudohermaphrodite came as something of a shock. It shouldn't have.
Even though I fathered two girls, I have always had the sense that something was wrong down there. Smaller penis, high and tight scrotal sack, which I later found out was due to a significantly smaller retractile testicle that travels painfully through something the size and shape of a uterus on the left side (I had no idea that normal length is a scant 3 inches) and when I started taking estrogen on a cyclic level, the pressure of that cavity building up coinciding roughly with those cycles--about 4 days every two and a half weeks.
It's funny, but I realize now that I have had a sensation of cramping in that same spot since I was an adolescent, discovering, intuitively, that masturbation relaxed my suffering. That was something I forgot.
Coincident with the very real possibility and in probable connection to it and my rare type of cryptorchidism, I was sent to a specialist in another state at 9 years old for surgery for a distended bladder, a problem that I have found is more common in girls and I have a small prostate, minimum normal male length, left gonad size and testosterone production.
The procedures for cryptorchid children at birth includes the removal any endometrial tissue that is found. Because of that, and the fact that everything appears normal, I believe the condition is considered rarer than it should be because it goes undetected or is treated at birth.
-- Sophie Hawes
Interesting information--would this simply be a variant of the 'metaplasia hypothesis' to explain female endometriosis, in which (some) peritoneal epithelial cells retain the embryonic ability to transform into endometrial cells, given the appropriate hormonal stimuli or lack of immune response?
Also, you note menopause in children--could you elaborate? I haven't been able to find any information on that.
