I am 21 with no children and I have PCOS. I know women with PCOS tend to be more sensitive to estrogen so it definitely limits options. Paragard caught my attention because it is non hormonal. General reviews says that it gives one heavier periods but I was wondering what does it do for women who do not normally have a period. Has it given regular monthly cycles? Regular monthly cycles with heavier bleeding?

The confrontations between police and demonstrators at the Stonewall Inn in New York City the weekend of June 27-29, 1969 mark the beginning of the modern glbtq movement for equal rights.
Formed soon after the Stonewall Riots of 1969, the short-lived but influential Gay Liberation Front brought a new militancy to the movement that became known as gay liberation.
The sexual revolution of post-World War II America changed sexual and gender roles profoundly.
"Leather" is a blanket term for a large array of sexual preferences, identities, relationship structures, and social organizations loosely tied together by the thread of what is conventionally understood as sadomasochistic sex.
Although best known for her crusade for women's suffrage, Susan B. Anthony spoke out on a range of feminist issues.
With reports from hundreds of sub-Saharan African locales of male-male sexual relations and from about fifty of female-female sexual relations, it is clear that same-sex sexual relations existed in traditional African societies, though varying in forms and in the degree of public acceptance
Androgyny, a psychological blending of gender traits, has long been embraced by strong women, soft men, members of queer communities, and others who do not easily fit into traditionally defined gender categories.
A cultural crossroads between Asia and Europe, Russia has a long, rich, and often violent heritage of varied influences and stark confrontations in regard to its patterns of same-sex love.
Christine Quinn.
Christine Quinn's dream of becoming the first woman and first openly gay Mayor of New York City faltered when she finished third in the Democratic primary of September 10, 2013. Nevertheless, a number of other glbtq candidates triumphed.
Many analysts are blaming Quinn's loss on her close association with Mayor Michael Bloomburg, who became increasingly unpopular in the course of the campaign. Quinn was the front-runner as the campaign began, but progressive voters blamed her for having supported the change in by-laws that allowed Bloomburg to run for a third term in 2009.
As Jim Dwyer analyzes the primary in the New York Times, "She was the target of a million dollars or so of negative ads by a group opposed to the [Bloomburg deal] that called for 'anybody but Quinn.' Instead of becoming the mayor's tacitly anointed successor, Ms. Quinn wound up as his proxy when the Enough of Bloomberg Already moment arrived."
Contributing to Quinn's defeat was the nastiness of the campaign against her. As David Mixner observes at his blog, "The campaign against Quinn was ugly and at times hateful. She deserved better than that strident hateful rhetoric."
Saying that he was honored to have supported Quinn, Mixner described her as "an incredibly talented, progressive and kind human being. We can only hope New York can find ways or perhaps even President Obama to use those talents and that experience."
The good news concerning the mayor's race in New York City is that the two candidates who finished ahead of Quinn in the Democratic primary, Bill DeBlasio and William Thompson, are both strong supporters of equal rights, as is the winner of the Republican primary, Joe Lhota.
The candidate endorsed by the hate group the National Organization for Marriage, Erick Salgado, finished behind Anthony Weiner and received only 2% of the vote in the Democratic primary.
Other good news from the New York election is that gay activist Corey Johnson won a seat on the City Council, capturing the seat Christine Quinn relinquished to run for mayor.
Another openly gay winner is Carlos Menchaca, who also becomes one of the first Mexican-Americans to serve on the New York City Council and the first openly gay Councilman from Brooklyn.
Ritchie Torres will become the first openly gay Councilman from the Bronx.
In addition to the three new openly gay Councilmembers, three openly gay incumbents also handily won their races: Danny Dromm, Jimmy Van Bramer, and Rosie Mendez.
Johnson, Menchaca, Torres, Dromm, Van Bramer, and Mendez will face only token opposition in the general election, so their victories in the Democratic primary are tantamount to election.
Unfortunately, Mel Wymore, the first transgender candidate for the City Council, finished a close second in his race.
The video below reports on the novelty of a lesbian candidate campaigning with her wife in the campaign for New York City mayor.

President, first lady buying home in Dallas
"Laura Bush seems like such a fine person, and I can't imagine anyone not wanting her as a neighbor," Tomasides said. "And him, too, regardless of your political affiliation."
The Bushes previously lived in Dallas from December 1988 through January 1995, before moving to the Texas governor's mansion in Austin. The Bushes will continue to spend time at their ranch in Crawford, McDonough said.
Associated Press writers David Koenig, Linda Stewart Ball, Paul J. Weber, Stephen Hawkins and photographer LM Otero in Dallas, writer Deb Riechmann in Washington and researcher Julie Reed in New York contributed to this report.

Romney ready to claim prize, wife to argue case
TAMPA, Fla. Poised at last to claim the prize he's been chasing for years, Mitt Romney barreled into his convention city Tuesday as Republicans worked to showcase him at their national convention as a man who understands everyday Americans and a leader who can fix the economy.
Ann Romney, the woman who knows him best, said she was tickled that her husband would be on hand for her evening speech to the convention. And tough-talking New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie was ready to make the case in his keynote address for Romney as the right leader to get the economy moving.
"It's going to be fun for him to be there," Mrs. Romney told reporters before touching down in Tampa, where she headed to the convention hall for a microphone check, practicing with a few lines from Lincoln's Gettysburg Address. Running mate Paul Ryan arrived in the convention city, too, still tweaking the speech he'll deliver Wednesday.
But with New Orleans and much of the Gulf Coast waiting fearfully to see where Hurricane Isaac makes landfall, politics became an awkward enterprise and no one knows what sort of party the GOP gathering will turn out to be.
After a one-day weather delay, the convention proceeds according to its latest script: delivering Romney the presidential nomination he fought years to achieve, calling the party to unify around him and setting the stage for the final stretch of the hotly contested campaign to unseat President Barack Obama.
Obama, not one to cede the spotlight, tended to presidential business, urging Gulf Coast residents to prepare for the approaching storm. And then he headed out on a three-state campaign trip focused on winning over college students.
Mindful of the political perils of campaigning in the face of a natural disaster, aides said Obama was open to adjusting his schedule if warranted. But campaign spokeswoman Jen Psaki added: "It's important for him to be out there less than 70 days before the election making the case for why he's a better choice for the American people."
Romney has finalized his own Thursday convention speech, said aide Stuart Stevens, and it will be "a clear vision of a Romney presidency and very much from his heart about America and why he wants to be president and what his presidency would be like."
The cash demands of campaigning never far away, Romney worked two fundraisers into the schedule for his first day in Tampa on Tuesday, while Ann Romney and Ryan both popped out new email appeals for campaign contributions. Obama campaign manager Jim Messina was out with his own fundraising appeal for cash to fight what he said were sure to be distortions at the GOP convention.
Tuesday's convention business got under way at midafternoon, with a string of GOP governors and congressional candidates set to warm up the crowd for the roll call of the states that will nominate Romney and then evening's main speakers.
Christie, ready for his keynote address, said that for those Americans who aren't yet sold on Romney, "you start turning it around tonight."

This past weekend marked the debut of the much anticipated indie horror flick, The Scarehouse. In his feature film, Canadian director, writer, producer and filmmaker Gavin Booth takes us into the twisted world of two scorn sorority pledges (played by Sarah Booth and Kimberly-Sue Murray) out for revenge. The two female leads take the audience on an emotional roller coaster of betrayal, revenge and sympathy as their former Sigma Capa Delta sisters begin to arrive one-by-one at their makeshift haunted house; the night soon takes an unexpected turn for the worse.
The film- which was completely shot in Booth's home town of Windsor, Ontario- got its inspiration from one of the cities annual halloween attractions "In Windsor, Ontario there is a Halloween haunted house open each October called Scarehouse Windsor (yes I borrowed the name!)" said Booth "It is run by Shawn Lippert. Shawn has helped me on many of my filmmaking adventures in the past. One day four or five years ago I was inside Scarehouse Windsor during the daytime when he was setting it up. I learned all about the "Haunt" industry and how funhouses are run. It hit me that when you are in the dark inside a funhouse – if someone working there had malicious plans for you, you would have no chance of winning – they would have the high ground – they would know their way around in the dark – complete home court advantage". Thus, the premise of The Scarehouse was born.
Although the haunted house in which the film was inspired resides in Windsor, many were confused about Booth's decision to shoot the complete film in a town known by most for its blue-collar charm.
"People bitch about Windsor a lot" explained Booth "I hear it all the time from people that live here. I know the problem isn't Windsor. Windsor and Essex County are amazing. You should be so thankful if you live here. You have so much to see and do AND you have an amazing tight-knit community of support for whatever it is you are trying to do. I'll keep bringing every film production to Windsor until it stops making sense to do so"
Not only did the original setting of the haunted house help to set the scene for this film, but the amazingly talented cast allowed viewers to get sucked into the grotesque minds of those looking for retribution. As the film progressed with its classic horror genre elements, the debut audience winced and groaned as if on que all the while not being able to tear their eyes away from the screen.
This film definitely did not disappoint in terms of horror flicks. packed with stomach turning torture porn-esq scenes and plenty of edge-of-your-seat moments, The Scarehouse was the perfect film to kick off the horror movie season, don't believe me? check out the trailer below. To catch a screening of the film, head over to Lakeshore Cinemas in Tecumseh, Ontario. Screenings begin Friday October 10th and continue for a full week. for more information on the film visit their website at http://www.scarehousemovie.com

|Minimum Stay
|2 nights
St Mark Residence is a 2 bedroom 2 bathroom comfortable apartment adjacent to San Marco Piazza on the Merceria dell'Oralagio with a balcony in the heart of Venice.
Recently refurbished, it affords the visitor tranquility in the very centre of this exciting and unique city. Listen to Vivaldi as you sip prosecco on the terrace under the watchful eye of St Mark on the glorious domes of the Basilica and relax at the end of a perfect day of sightseeing and exploring the dazzling array of unique attractions that is magical Venice. Enjoy the orchestras in the St Mark's Piazza at nighttime en route to a romantic stroll along the waterfront and gaze at the Laguna.
The two bathrooms allow two couples to share and a fifth guest can be accommodated behind a screen in the living room. Enjoy the many restaurants and bars in the heart of Venice and if you feel like eating in, the compact kitchen (newly installed in 2012) will allow you serve the lovely local produce found in the local shops and markets. Avail of the balcony and eat outside and watch the gunmetal Moors on the Clock Tower keeping time as they have done for centuries! The Merceria dell'Oralagio, our street is an amazing mixture of designer shops, with eyecatching displays showcasing beautiful Italian crafts like the
locally produce Murano Glass. It is the main entrance to the world renowned St Mark's Square and yet has the advantage of peaceful evenings and the chance to enjoy this world Heritage, Unesco protected site leisurely when all the other tourists have left!
Art classes, Italian classes, cultural tours and sightseeing tours are among the many organised trips you can
avail of in Venice where approximately 20 million visitors come annually to marvel at the magic that is Venice.
You can negotiate La Serenissima yourself using an array of useful guidebooks written by others who have
visited and loved Venice before you. The rail links are very good and you can also explore other beautiful Italian
cities like Verona, Padua, Florence, Rome and many many more from here. Venice however has enough beauty
and wonder to keep the average person exploring them for many years and you will find yourself drawn back to
her again and again.
We bought this apartment in 2008 and refurbished it in 2009. Every year since then we have updated or upgraded some aspect of the
apartment. In 2010 we installed a new boiler, in 2012 a new
kitchen and in 2013 WIFI and new airconditioning. We absolutely love spending time here and love the fact that we are
so close to virtually every attraction in Venice. St Mark's Square at nighttime when the main body of tourists have gone home, exhibits a sort of magical surreal quality, its perfect beauty complemented by the various orchestras with musicians from all over the world. I cannot imagine anyone tiring of this unique setting.
Mrs Leonora O'Sullivan purchased this apartment in 2008
The chance of having an apartment so close to the unique World Heritage, Unesco site of St Mark's Square in Venice was a very
special opportunity for us and very rare (we bought it from an Italian business person who, in turn had received it as a family inheritance). It is also comfortable and pleasant to spend time in.
Proximity to St Mark's Square and ease of access to all other
Venetian attractions.
This is the perfect apartment for a stay in Venice. The location is unbeatable, just a thirty-second walk from St Mark's Square (the heart of Venice). It is also only a short walk to local amenities such as a supermarket and the Vaporetto. The apartment itself is very charming and well cared for. The hostess, Leonora, is very welcoming and helpful. We were delighted when she was able to give us some fantastic local restaurant recommendations. On her advice we ate traditional Italian food at reasonable prices for the duration of our stay. I would highly recommend this apartment, I can't think of a better way to experience Venice!
Venice is an amazing place to come to and see and do and walk and eat and drink and just stand in Piazza San Marco at night and breathe and listen to the music. Do it and stay here, in this apartment. A stones throw from the Piazza, Doges Palace and St Marks Basilica, this home away from home is comfortable and very accommodating. Sure, bringing the suitcase up the steps is a workout, but treat yourself to a gelato and go exploring. Sit out on the porch with some wine and cheese and listen to the bells in the evening as the tourists thin out. The beds are comfortable, the bathrooms updated. Thank you, Leonora, for making this stay so perfect from our first emailing through the visit. I would absolutely encourage anyone coming to Venice to stay here and look forward to a repeat stay in the future!
This was our first visit to Venice and most certainly will not be our last. We were so glad that we chose this apartment. This is a very well cared for, clean apartment. The outdoor balcony was wonderful, and we loved sitting out there hearing the noises of Venice. You are so close to all of the action, but feel as though when you enter this apartment all is quiet and peaceful. The stairs leading to the apartment are many, but we felt as though we could indulge just a little more!!!! This apartment was great, and we highly recommend it.
We have been to Venice a few time before and never stayed in such a charming apartment. It was spacious and well cared for. This was our last stop on our 3 week vacation. The beds were very comfortable with nice crisp sheets. You can tell that Leonora takes pride in her home. The outside terrace was a fantastic place to sit and have a glass of wine and cheese. The location is steps away from St Marks Square. Everything is walking distance. I can't wait to go back. We wouldn't want to stay anywhere else!! Leonora was delightful. She made the transaction easy from beginning to the end. Thanks again!
'Superbly located ' truly described this delightful property . I was astonished at the proximity to St. Mark's Square ! Mrs O' Sullivan with her great courtesy and warmth , took great care of me,a single traveller . She gave me several contact numbers should I need them ,and extensive information on places to visit, nearby shops and Restaurants .The apartment while being absolutely pristine, was so welcoming and warm .I felt truly nurtured by it's comfort and decor,with lots to read,and beautiful guide books .The joy of being so high up,is the views over the red roof tops, the Clock Tower, and roof of St.Marks .I was particularly struck by the serenity and peace, yet while out on the balcony, you could hear the gentle buzz of the passer by's. It was a perfect visit, full of delight and I truly hope to return .With best wishes ,from Claire Roche.Ireland.
First of all we would liket to thank Leonora for being so nice, always available when we needed information or suggestions, before our arrival and during our stay. The apartment is exactely as in the pictures, beautiful, clean, spacious, well kept, quiet yet centrally located, and the terrace is a real plus and very difficult to find in Central Venice. The location is spectacular, right behind the Torre dell'Orologio (left side of San Mark Square), 5 minutes from Rialto Bridge, Santa Maria Formosa, The Arsenale (The Biennale), plenty of restaurants around and also supermarkets if one wants to prepare something at home, in the middle of everything but very quiet and private. We went on a romantic gateway to celebrate a birthday and the choice couldn't be better, the apartment gave us the opportunity to visit Venice as locals, having time to explore the less touristic areas as well as the very well known, and loved the city more than ever!
Venice, unique City of Water lies in North Eastern Italy. Piazza San Marco a World Heritage Unesco site is less than 30 seconds from our apartment. We are on the Merceria dell'Oralagio We can see the imposing Campanile and the fascinating Torrel del Orologio from our apartment and
enjoy the benign gaze of St Mark on the Byzantium Domes of his Cathedral when we sit on our balcony. We can sometimes hear the orchestras in St Mark's at nighttime and love the fact that we are so central, the beautiful laguna is only the other side of San Marco from us and it is magic to walk there late at night.The
Laguna with all its beauty and mysteries await you and the famous Lido is only a short waterbus (vaporetto) ride away. All the islands of the Laguna are so easily explored and you can get
a vaporetto from within a few minutes of our apartment. We are within walking distance( 5 minutes on foot) of The Rialto famous for its wonderful markets and the majestic Grand Canal.
Other Activities: Guided tours and lectures on Venice and the
surrounding Veneto region. Day trips to Verona, Padua and
and the Brenta Canal. Wine and Language tours and courses.

Over 21,000 pet owners have trusted AlphaPet with their animals and we're here to help you too
Hello there! My name is Richard Edwards and I am one of the principle vets here at AlphaPet. There are loads of reasons why you should come and visit us and I really hope I get to meet you soon.
After watching my uncle perform a sheep caesarian during an interrupted Christmas lunch in 1971, I was hooked! From that day on, I always knew I wanted to be a vet.
I qualified in 1989 and ever since, my goals have been to help keep your cherished companions fit and healthy, whilst caring for sick pets (and wildlife) until they are better. In 1993 my professional partners and I decided to establish AlphaPet Veterinary Clinics and for the last 21 years, we have cared for over 68,000 pets in the Chichester and Bognor Regis area.
Every pet we have seen during this time, and that we will see in the future, has been treated as if they were our own. All of our staff have pets, so we know how important they are as members of the family! Me personally, I currently have 3 dogs, 6 cats, 16 goats & 6 sheep (all pets - my family is pescetarian!), a pony, 4 peacocks and a guinea pig!
You want your pet to be provided with exceptional care and I passionately believe that this can only come from an independent group of veterinary practices - that are not driven by shareholders and profits - but purely by quality of care, value and clinical excellence.
That is exactly what AlphaPet Veterinary Clinic offers you.
In an emergency, especially when your pet is seriously sick or injured, you want to visit your local practice and to see your normal vet as quickly as possible. That is why AlphaPet is continuing to offer its own in-house out of hours emergency service; to ensure that, in these situations, your pet is offered the same level of veterinary care.
So that's something about me and the background to why over 21,000 pet owners have trusted AlphaPet with their pets in our first 21 years. But if you want to know some more about us or to register your pet, why not visit us today?
For more information about our services, or to book an appointment call our friendly team today on 01243 842832.

Re: TheGodBen Revisits Deep Space Nine
Yeah, I have to say Sisko drawing attention to his black heritage was quite jarring, and took the shine off the episode a bit. I understand where he's coming from after his experience in the 1960s, but it was a clumsily handled moment that wasn't very Star Trek.
Having said that, I have such a soft spot for the episode. It was a cool ensemble piece where everyone had something to do, and they were all doing it for their friend. Now I think I said pretty much the same about Take Me Out To The Holosuite, which I also liked a fair bit. As fluff episodes that get in the way of the main arc in the last couple of seasons, I would rank these two episodes towards the top.
It's also one of the few instances of a holodeck/suite program doing what it was actually programmed to do. So there.

In another employer-friendly decision, the U.S. Supreme Court reinforced its support for class action waivers, ruling in American Express Co. v. Italian Colors Restaurant that an explicit class action waiver in an arbitration agreement cannot be invalidated simply because the plaintiff's cost of individually arbitrating a claim exceeds the potential recovery.
Justice Scalia, writing for the five-judge majority, distinguished the right to pursue a claim from the expense involved in proving a claim: "[T]he fact that it is not worth the expense involved in proving a statutory remedy does not constitute the elimination of the right to pursue the remedy."
The American Express decision clarified that the Court's earlier decision in AT&T Mobility LLC v. Concepcion was not limited to the Federal Arbitration Act's preemption of state law, as had been interpreted by some lower courts. Rather, courts must "rigorously enforce" arbitration agreements according to their terms, even for claims alleging violation of a federal statute, unless the FAA's mandate has been overridden by a contrary congressional command.
Although American Express was decided in the context of an antitrust case, it will assist employers in wage-and-hour litigation, where class waivers frequently have been challenged, and cost of individual arbitration is a common argument invoked by plaintiffs.
American Express is also significant to California employers seeking to enforce waivers of representative Private Attorney General Act ("PAGA") claims, as the decision makes clear that the right to pursue a claim as a class (or presumably as a group) can be bargained away so long as the ability to pursue the underlying cause of action remains.

Japanese advertising agency I&S BBDO Tokyo has created an unusual set of symbolic designs for Umino Seaweed to help the seaweed company recover from the sales aftereffects of the 2011 Japanese tsunami. Designs that represent longevity, luck, beauty and happiness were scored into the nori using a laser cutter. Umino Seaweed's designs were modeled after classic Japanese patterns such as sakura (cherry blossoms), mizutama (water drops), asanoha (hemp), kikkou (turtle seashell) and kumikikkou (tortoiseshell).
The etched designs create a beautiful look to traditional maki rolls, adding dimension and a one-of-a-kind aesthetic. For more artistic sushi creations, check out these delicious designs.

IRVING, Texas (AP) — The Dallas Cowboys are moving on without franchise sacks leader DeMarcus Ware.
Now they have to figure out how to rebuild their defensive line.
IRVING, Texas (AP) — The Dallas Cowboys are moving on without franchise sacks leader DeMarcus Ware.
Now they have to figure out how to rebuild their defensive line.
The Cowboys released Ware on Tuesday, a salary cap move that owner Jerry Jones called "extremely difficult" after the worst season of the star pass rusher's career. Ware broke Harvey Martin's 30-year-old franchise record for sacks in 2013, but got to the quarterback a career-low six times and missed games for the first time in his nine-year career with a thigh injury.
The 31-year-old Ware also had offseason elbow surgery and was set to count $16 million against the salary cup. Negotiations on a reduced salary failed, so his release saves about $7.4 million and gives Dallas about $9 million to spend at the moment.
"A decision like this, involving a man who is a cornerstone player in the history of your franchise, is extremely difficult," Jones, also the team's general manager, said in a statement announcing the decision just as free agency opened. "We were also in very strong agreement that playing for the Dallas Cowboys would be one of the options we would both be exploring."
Still, Ware has likely played his last down for an owner who always had a tough time letting aging superstars go.
Without Ware and with 2013 team sacks leader Jason Hatcher already headed for free agency, all the projected starters from a year ago are gone from a defense that gave up the most yards in franchise history and finished last in the league in total defense. Rod Marinelli is taking over for the demoted Monte Kiffin as defensive coordinator after both joined the staff last year. Marinelli was in charge of the injury-riddled front last season.
Anthony Spencer, who like Ware had to make the transition to defensive end in a four-man defensive front, missed almost all of last season with a knee injury and is a free agent. Dallas released defensive tackle Jay Ratliff in the middle of last season.

China satellite navigation system starts service
Wednesday - 12/28/2011, 10:43am EST
BEIJING (AP) - A Chinese rival to the U.S. global positioning system network has started providing services in China and the surrounding area.
The director of China's satellite navigation system office, Ran Chengqi, told reporters Tuesday that the Beidou navigation system is offering services including positioning, navigation routes and time.
Ran did not specify who the target users are, but he said Beidou would be available to Chinese and foreign companies for research and development.
Beidou will be available to much of the Asian-Pacific region by the end of 2012 and worldwide by 2020.
China, and especially its military, have long been wary of relying on the United States' dominant GPS network, fearing that Washington might take the system offline in a conflict or an emergency.

I see Amouage listed here alot, quite frankly im not impressed with any of their frags. The best Ive smelled is the Honour Man. Personally I think they all smell like 80 year old man. Not knocking anyone who enjoys them thats just how I feel.
Personally right now I really like Bvlgari Pour Homme Soir for a Luxury Scent. Either that or Frapin 1270
I agree with you. Tiffany for Men. I don't have this yet, but I've tried it out a few times and I think it oozes luxury and elegance.

Right now I think that I have all the fragrances that I want.

Clive Christian - C for Men.
Heritage EDP....Guerlain
Blue Amber....Montale
Don't panic. Just stay calm, and reload....
hednic - Gengis Khan where would one source a sample, decant or bottle?
100 odd suggestions and not one Guerlain - Imperial Tonka Maybe its the Tonka bean that cannot be taken to seriously? But I love wearing IT with a white starched shirt and tie in a dark blue suit and polished leather shoes - I even get trade my swatch for a rolex on these occassions. lol
No Dior Exclusives does that mean Dior Exclusives do not reach the luxury realm for us Bner's?
Chanel exclusives did well in this thread. Diamondflame 34 rue Cambon Going to have to sniff this with your suggestion in mind. (Hijack thread question) are you not getting married soon? What did you decide on a marriage ceremony scent for his and hers?
Joe - surprised me with Carnal Flower as a choice. Is that not tainted dirty style? Joe, I would of expected your Tiffany for Men too appear as a suggestion from you?
Amourage - did very well here but I feel it may be too outspoken for me to wear.
All in all a gdamn good thread to read through
Santal Noble, Homage, Balsamo Della Mecca & Sandalo Inspiritu - personal luxury.
Patou Pour Homme, Derby, Eau de Guerlain, Sous le Vent & AdP Colonia - quiet luxury.
Amouage Gold, Taste of Heaven, Reflection Man - modern luxury.
Creed Silver Mountain Water
Another vote for Jubilation XXV.
Amouage Dia
Amouage Homage
Xerjoff Uden
Indult Reve en cuir
Mark Buxton Nameless
Dior Homme Intense
and a few others more.
Oud Wood (Tom Ford) - alone or layered with GIT
Perhaps Windsor...
The first thing I thought was 'nothing sweet.'
Most of the Chanel exclusifs would fit the luxury smell.

Deficiency modules and specializations
Abstract | References | Similar Articles | Additional Information
Abstract: Given a family of curves in the projective space we study how their deficiency modules can change. This has a geometrical translation in the problem of determining how the liaison class of a flat family of curves can change. As a consequence, we show that in every liaison class there are curves which are specializations of arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay curves.

Kathak exponents Mangala and Raghav Rajeev Bhatt say that dance is ever evolving
A western symphony plays on the piano. Her slender fingers gracefully switch from one mudra to the next, her face from one abhinaya to another. He brings vitality on to the stage, as he glides across it with complete creative control. In more ways than one, Mangala and Raghav Rajeev Bhatt are made for each other.
Raghav Raj Bhatt hails from a family of dancers and has grown up watching and breathing art and dance. His father, Gopalraj Bhatt, was one of the first dancers from the city, and as a child Raghav performed in many of his creative ballets. He decided to pursue Kathak, worked towards winning the national scholarship and was selected by the Kathak Kendra in the capital. Raghav got a chance to work with Birju Maharaj. "I learnt and worked under him for 15 years and collaborate with him even today," he says. Raghav now lives in Moscow, where he teaches Kathak. Mangala learnt Kathak at the Kathak Kendra; needless to say, she too was a scholarship holder. "I don't come from a family of dancers and even the decision to pursue dance wasn't laid out on a straight path, it was always meandering," she says.
Their mutual passion for the dance form blossomed into love and respect. "Both our gurujis, who are otherwise strict and disapprove of romantic relationships, were in fact rooting for us to get together," Mangala blushes. As the couple worked together in many productions in Delhi and performed in the same circuits, did personal egos ever come in the way? "No!" they both exclaim in unison. "Since we are in the same field, we have an understanding of the nature of work. We appreciate each other's work and are perhaps each other's best critics," says Mangala. Raghav adds, "Passion can be understood best by those who have experienced it themselves."
Raghav and Mangala take Kathak the extra mile by experimenting and creating new experiences. In Singapore, Mangala paired up with a local dancer and danced to tunes from drums. In Spain, she paired up with a Flamenco dancer. On other occasions, she has performed to the Samba, piano and western classical violin. Mangala has also danced to Sufi music. "Art has more to do with the heart than a rigid structure written down on paper," she says. Raghav has composed a dance ballet, 'Sanskruti Sagar', for which the choreography includes all dance forms. Mangala maintains that they aren't contemporising Kathak per se and in fact are going with the natural flow of the art form, which adapts to and adopts everything that comes its way. "We just improvise and evolve," smiles Mangala. And dance, they feel, is like any other form — soul stirring. "I strongly believe that all children must be introduced to one art form or the other, not because they should take it up professionally, but simply because it helps you grow, mature and it gives you 'sukoon' (peace)," says Mangala. Education is complete only when art is a part of it, feels Raghav.
In 1992, Raghav and Mangala set up the Aakriti Kathak Kendra to extend the reach of Kathak and tap into Hyderabad's potential as a culturally charged city. "We never thought that we'll go wrong, such is the confidence that our gurus instilled in us," says Mangala. They themselves are conscientious gurus. "My gurus engaged my interest through discipline and evoked a passion. We were successful because of the Guru-Shishya parampara and we wish to continue that," says Raghav. How far does the new generation accept this parampara? "I understand that to interact with the youth, I need to speak to them in their terms because that is the only way I can get them to understand mine," says Mangala. Raghav chips in, "The idea is always to evolve dance in such a fashion that each generation understands the art form and its value."
It has been twenty years since the duo, Mangala and Raghav set up the Aakriti Kathak Kendra in Hyderabad and the journey to becoming the superlatives of Kathak in the city is dotted with a plethora of experiences.
An affair with art
Raghav has also engaged with Kathak through drawing. Raghav is a a qualified artist from Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University, he has widely exhibited his line drawings. His line drawings are free-flowing strokes sketched using a felt tip pen. The lines are powerful and entrap movement within the canvas. Raghav's line drawings have been showcased in many exhibitions. He has rendered various collections — on Kathak and other dance forms, including folk and tribal art forms. Raghav has also rendered illustrations for Birju Maharaj's book, Ang Kavya.

For the atrox bridge and interior, here's what I'd like to see:
-Obviously alien/nonhuman design base. Hallways should be curvy and follow similar architectural designs to the atrox's exterior. The interior color should be similar to the atrox's exterior color as well, though maybe a bit less iridescent. Interior lighting should be blue/green.
-The bridge should have the usual stations (captain's seat, helmsman, tactical, communications, science, and a large engineering panel) but it should also include a station that clearly looks like it's designed for air traffic control (or whatever equivalent a carrier would use in space) - it'd be cool if this station is manned by a unique caitian NPC as well, labelled as a flight controller or something of that sort.
-Caitians love artistic, flowing designs, so the captain's quarters, crew quarters (if applicable), and crew lounge areas should all be pretty artsy, with aesthetically pleasing curvature in the walls and a high-class look. Caitian bust sculptures in the lounge would be cool too.
-The engineering deck should contain the usual engineering lab and warp core rooms (with a cool looking caitian-style warp core, obviously), and the transporter room, but it should also link to at least one of the two hangar bays, allowing you to actually enter the hangar bay and check out some stalker fighters up-close while exploring your ship interior. As far as the roleplayers go (myself being one of them), I think it'd be cool to set up a flight mission briefing inside the hangar bay, and maybe go on to have a team of players in stalker fighters do a mission together designed with the mission editor.
The hangar bays on the atrox are sealed with cool looking wavy forcefields, so there's no reason you shouldnt be able to move around inside them while exploring your ship's interior.

Aides: Chavez in tough fight, may miss swearing-in
Opposition leader Henrique Capriles, who lost to Chavez in the October presidential election and is running against Jaua, complained Wednesday that Chavez's allies are taking advantage of the president's health problems to try to rally support. He took issue with Jaua's statement to supporters that "we have to vote so that the president recovers."
Maduro looked sad as he spoke on television, his voice hoarse and cracked at times after meeting in the pre-dawn hours with Cabello and Ramirez. The pair returned to Venezuela about 3 a.m. after accompanying Chavez to Cuba for his surgery.
"It was a complex, difficult, delicate operation," Maduro said. "The post-operative process is also going to be a complex and hard process."
Without giving details, Maduro reiterated Chavez's recent remarks that the surgery presented risks and that people should be prepared for any "difficult scenarios."
The constitution says presidents should be sworn in before the National Assembly, and if that's not possible then before the Supreme Court.
Former Supreme Court magistrate Roman Duque Corredor said a president cannot delegate the swearing-in to anyone else and cannot take the oath of office outside Venezuela. A president could still be sworn in even if temporarily incapacitated, but would need to be conscious and in Venezuela, Duque told The Associated Press.
If a president-elect is declared incapacitated by lawmakers and is unable to be sworn in, the National Assembly president would temporarily take charge of the government and a new presidential vote must be held within 30 days, Duque said.
Chavez said Saturday that if an election had to be held, Maduro should be elected president.
The dramatic events of this week, with Chavez suddenly taking a turn for the worse, had some Venezuelans wondering whether they were being told the truth because just a few months ago the president was running for his fourth presidential term and had said he was free of cancer.
Lawyer Maria Alicia Altuve, who was out in bustling crowds in a shopping district of downtown Caracas, said it seemed odd how Maduro wept at a political rally while talking about Chavez.
"He cries on television to set up a drama, so that people go vote for poor Chavez," Altuve said. "So we don't know if this illness is for that, or if it's that this man is truly sick."
Some Chavez supporters said they found it hard to think about losing the president and worried about the future. His admirers held prayer vigils in Caracas and other cities this week, holding pictures and singing hymns.
Chavez has undergone four cancer-related surgeries since June 2011. He has also undergone months of chemotherapy and radiation treatments. Throughout his treatments, Chavez has kept secret some details of his illness, including the exact location and type of the tumors.
Ecuadorean President Rafael Correa wished his close ally the best, while also acknowledging the possibility that cancer might end his presidency. "Chavez is very important for Latin America, but if he can't continue at the head of Venezuela, the processes of change have to continue," Correa said at a news conference in Quito.
Associated Press writer Christopher Toothaker contributed to this report.

In case you don't know these iconic Black Writers (now deceased),

Black People in Science Fiction and Fantasy
You will find many faces in AFROcentric Speculative Fiction -- especially people of color. Tales of the Black fantastic have been published since the 1800s. Men and women of African descent were escaping hideous social oppression through literature -- it became possible in stories to build black empires, discover secret societies, travel to the true heart of Africa, construct rayguns and pilot military airships to dominate the skies and liberate continents and the mind.
In the realm of fantasy, stories used magic and faith to rise ultimate heights. Writers combined myth and history to inspire, encourage and enlightened. Romance and mystery as well as horror brought forth courage and resilence. These inspirational stories are being read and created today.
Science fiction, fantasy, horror and all the many subgenres fall under the generalized category of Speculative Fiction.
"Speculative fiction is a broad literary genre encompassing any fiction with supernatural, fantastical, or futuristic elements. The popularity of the term is sometimes attributed to Robert Heinlein, who referenced it in 1947 in an editorial essay, although there are instances of speculative fiction, or its variant 'speculative literature'."— Wikipedia
AFROFuturistism is not a new phenomena. Its roots go back to the time of Nubian civilization that gave rise to the Pharaohs in Africa. The belief in the fantastic survived the transatlantic voyages.
Sword and Soul are stories in ancient lands where people of color were the heroes and the villains. Occasionally, you would see the Northern white hordes attacking. And, yes, monsters and demons of indeterminate race were always lurking in the shadows. Thomas Mofolo wrote Chaka in the 1930s making it one of the earliest Sword and Soul fantasies.
SteamFunk takes place as steam-powered engines connected people across vast distances. SteamFunk is one of the many derivatives of the speculative gems rising out of Cyberpunk which lead to Steampunk, Dieselpunk, and other "punks". Essentially, each subgenre focuses on a particular technology (such as using steam to power flying warships) or an alternative world (i.e., freed Africans ruling regions of America after the Civil War).
Meet some of the faces of AFROCentric Speculative Fiction. These are "random hits".

NACE & ABC Meeting, July 26, 2012
July 6, 2012
On June 26, Greenery Productions was asked to showcase at a joint dinner presented by The Orlando Chapter of the National Association of Catering Executives (NACE) and The Association of Bridal Consultants (ABC). Held at the Orlando World Center Marriott, the event featured a presentation by "The Wedding DIVA" Linnyette Richardson-Hall and focused on hot topics in the Wedding and Special Event Industry.
Attended by many of Orlando's top industry professionals, Tommy Murphy along with Kerline Docteur of Joie de Vie Wedding & Events Inc. and Jennifer Welsh with Over The Top Linens set out to create two elaborate and innovative tablescapes to be presented across a total of eight tables.
The first table design entitled "Twisted Sister" included a hand embellished crosswinds bowl filled with illuminated miniature calla lilies and roses. Never afraid to step out of the box, Tommy laid our concrete and metal Ella Stand vases on their side and adorned them with twisted calla lilies to frame this chic centerpiece. Dark gray tapered footed vases set amongst the stands and glowing with a floating candle finished this elaborate and elegant design.
The second table design entitled "Cascading Love" included one of our most popular glassware pieces, the Makita vase. Set both upright and on their sides, these varying size mercury silver and clear glass vessels were a perfect pairing for the cascading white Dendrobium Orchids pouring out each end. Clutches of white roses representing love were placed at the base of the design along with scatterings of and silver votives and steel spheres to complete the overall set. Check out the event's video here.

"Power of Now", "A New Earth", Living in the Present
It is strange the things you pick up on as you need them.
While reading chapter 5 section "relizing pure consciousness" he speaks of forms not being that important. so from what i gathered from it as our forms are not important just the consciousness so our forms dying we should really not get attached to because we go on.
my thought processes here, so i see it kind of like when we were little and playing with barbies, the barbies (a form) themselves are insignificant only the consciousness moving them (us, consciousness) then as we grow (evolve) we forget about the barbies and start playing with fashion or what ever (just another form)
so really our bodies are merely barbies and fashion and as we evolve we shed one for another, just a means to a end.
the only meaning then on the forms are the ones we place on them and nothing more.
this comes at a time when i am thinking of my brother (who has decided not to try any more methods to fight the cancer, I tried) so really i am not losing him. he will still be. just the form i know of him will be gone. but he will continue on to whatever it is that takes him on his journey thru evolution.
that is comforting to me.
what did you get from this part?

Reversing a 37
OK, so I'm not very good at this - but I'm also willing to take some advice...
Toodle-oo! went back in the water today
and the moanoever required reversing off the truck and backing about 150 feet between two piers about a boatlength and a half wide. It was a little intimidating since the wind was strong - 20 kts, gusting 25. It was almost behind me - on the port side... probably about 200 - 210 degrees apparent.
So I come off the truck and the boat starts reversing towards port - and I have full starboard rudder on. I tried going with strong throttle and with very little throttle. It felt as if no matter what I did with the throttle, she kept coming to port. Three times I had to go forward to realign the boat with the jettys.
No drama, didn't hit anything, but I'd really like to know what I should have done differently in order to come straight out under those conditions.
Thanks for any and all advice.
s/v Toodle-oo!

Question: Can You Freeze Green Olives
Yes, they can be frozen and might be a little bit softer upon thawing but flavor should still be there. You could also put them into smaller jars which would fit better into your fridge.
April 3, 2010
You could also try some ziploc bags- smaller sizes and portion them out into useable amounts. They would lay flat in your produce bin or on a small shelf in the fridge.

You can put them in air tight bags, they should last for a longer period in your fridge. but for me the best way to preserve green olives is to put them in jars with lemon juice and olive oil, you may keep them in your fridge for a longer period of time, but they will keep nicely in a cool place outside the fridge too up to a year from the time you pickle them, sometimes longer, depending on the pickling process you use.

Yes, you can freeze olives. You will need to rinse them first and then put into polyethylene containers filled with water. After when you need to thaw them just put covered container to fridge to defrost.
