Special Correspondent
Woman member to be inducted into TDB, says Sudhakaran
THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The Government will amend the Travancore Cochin Hindu Religious Institutions Act and induct a woman member and an SC member in the Travancore Devaswom Board, Devaswom Minister G. Sudhakaran said.
Addressing a function organised by the Board to handover 305 acre of revenue land to the Forest Department for compensatory forestation in lieu of the forest land given for Sabarimala development, Mr. Sudhakaran said the Government was committed to protecting the sanctity of all places of worship including Sabarimala and Guruvayur.
A Devaswom Board for Malabar was also on the anvil. Identification and transfer of revenue land was caught in squabbles among UDF Ministers. But the LDF Government could resolve it in 40 minutes, the Minister said.
The decision to acquire 2.10 acre of land in Guruvayur was also taken without any delay and it was handed over to Devaswom authorities three days before `Ashtami Rohini.' The Government will not tolerate bureaucratic high-handedness. "When the LDF Government assumed office, there were apprehensions about how the Communists would carry out the administration of places of worship. But all the departments concerned, Devaswom, Forest and Revenue worked together and resolved the issue at the earliest," he said.
The Government will not tolerate the corrupt, but will not use its authority to settle personal scores. Development works will be completed without upsetting the environment, he said.
Forest Minister Benoy Viswom said the Government would act without any delay on getting the master plan for developing Sabarimala. The Government has respect for all faiths and will function in a secular manner, the Minister added.
Law Minister M. Vijayakumar presided. Revenue Minister K.P. Rajendran, TDB president G. Raman Nair, members Punalur Madhu and M.B. Sreekumar and Principal Secretary to Government Bharat Bhushan also spoke.

New York Times
Unravels the mysteries of James Joyce.
Long considered the essential guide to Joyce's famously difficult work, Roland McHugh's Annotations to "Finnegans Wake" provides both novice readers and seasoned Joyceans with a wealth of information in an easy-to-use format uniquely suited to this densely layered text. Each page of the Annotations corresponds directly with a page of the standard Viking/Penguin edition of Finnegans Wake and contains line-by-line notes following the placement of the passages to which they refer. The reader can thus look directly from text to notes and back again, with no need to consult separate glossaries or other listings.
McHugh's richly detailed notes distill decades of scholarship, explicating foreign words, unusual English connotations and colloquial expressions, place names, historical events, song titles and quotations, parodies of other texts, and Joyce's diverse literary and popular sources. The third edition has added material reflecting fifteen years of research, including significant new insights from Joyce's compositional notebooks (the "Buffalo Notebooks"), now being edited for the first time.
Johns Hopkins University Press
Unravels the mysteries of James Joyce.
A daunting and delightful book.
All readers who contemplate any exegetical move whatsoever in the Wake must put the revised Annotations on the top of their pile of reference books.
I don't think we still have readers such as Roland McHugh who read the Wake without any help: most novices read the Wake in one hand and McHugh's Annotations in the other.
— Win Van Mierlo
It is hard to think of any reader of Finnegans Wake who would not have Roland McHugh's Annotations... on his desk.
McHugh remains admirable for his collection.
Posted November 8, 2012
this gives you two lines of annotation for every single in Finnegans Wake.
a must for any serious scholar or a curious mind like James

One term for a shoemaker is a cordwainer. The word is derived from the French word "cordonnier," which also means shoemaker, and was introduced into the English language following the Norman invasion.
The penny loafer originated when a shoemaker named John Bass created a type of loafer called a "Weejun" that had a split strap across the top of the shoe. People added embellishments into the opening of this strap for decorative purposes, the most common being a penny.
Referring to shoes as "pumps" dates back to the 1500s, when men and servants wore shoes without heels known as "pompes." From there, the pompes evolved from the plain, flat shoes worn by men to embellished, heeled shoes worn by women.

From the article: Youth Sports Profile: Kids Swimming
When your child joins a swim team for the first time, it's a learning experience for both of you. What have you discovered, the hard way, as a swim mom? What advice would you give to parents of kids starting out? Share your advice on everything from healthy snacks to post-meet pep talks to dealing with crummy coaches or obnoxious opponents. What do you love—or hate—most about being a swim mom (or dad)?
swim mom comfused
- Hi, I am a first time swim mom .I had no clue what competitive swimming was all about.I put my son in the team because he enjoys to be in water.Now that we are in the Team,I realised that his skills are not as savvy as others.He finishes up last and sometimes he wouldnt move in the pool.I feel bad to see my son struggling there.I dont want to take him out in the middle.My son on the other hand doesnt complain but he is trying his best,What should I do.I think it might take my son atleast 2 to 3 years to be on par with swim team Kids?What should I do? Should I give him more lessons to improve his technique? How should I help him?

We Know What We Did.
- I am 14 and currently on a club team going into the high school team. My mother and I have experienced countless meets. Some great and some not so great. At the not so great meets my mom, who was never a swimmer, thinks that its great to tel me how to improve myself at the meet. NO. We know what we did and trust us the coach makes us go to him/her after every race and tells us what we did wrong even after we won. It might just be me but when I'm told that I did something wrong after a race I get mad. If you want to tell us something tell us after- not before- practice when we're not tired. okay? just wanted to tell.

Let them swim
- ok ya if they want to have the medals and be in top 10 or 5 they have to work hard, but it's up to them if they want to swim or not. I mean i'm 11 and my mom pushes me, ya being a mom thats hat she does. But she lets me decide if i want to swim for fun or if i want to swim cause i want to be in top 5, which i want to do. Its just that parents let your kid decide, do they want to do it for fun or to get the medals and trophies and to also be in top 10 or 5. most parents make their kid swim competitively when really they want to it for fun. I go to meets and some of the kids i meet say things like "i'm soooo nervous my mom maid me come i want to hang out with my friends" and also things like "my parents make me swim, i would rather be playing soccer with my friends on travel soccer." so i would advise you to just let your kid swim and let them decide how important swimming is to them, it doesn't really matter what you want them to do it matters what they want to do. JUST LET THEM SWIM!

Be There For Them
- Hey, if you have a child in swimming or in another sport dont pressure them. Trust me on this one, im 13 years old i know how it feels too be pushed to the highest extent. Ever sence i was a little girl,4, i was pushed and pushed to be a great competitive swimmer and club soccer player. My mom loved the thought of me in the water, swimming but my dad was more of a soccer type of guy. They both argued and argued about what sport I should do, it just didnt seem far that i didnt have a say in MY OWN future. I still have too put up with it, sooooo, just allways keep in mind that your child always has a right too pick his/or her own future and never to ask your child that he or she is relaxed and ok with all decisions. ALSO, TELL THEM THAT U LOVE THEM, AND U ALWAYS WILL!!!!!!!!!!!!! BE THERE FOR THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

keep your kids in swim

- —Guest hi
Swimming is their sport, not yours!
- I am the mom of two swimmers, both boys; one swimming in college, the younger swimming for his club team. When they finish an event, give them space, then ask, "How did that feel?" Usually you will get exactly what they are thinking, and they will analyze while they are sharing with you. I never have to ask anything else. They have then shared and/or vented about their swim, and you pick out a few positive things they did in the swim and you move forward. At a swim meet is NOT the time to share your thoughts about what they need to work on. Save that for a time when they are more "open" to wanting to listen to your thoughts. Swimming is not about the Olympics; it's about the friendships they make, the level of devotion and the fortitude they acquire in order to continue to swim. Those are "life" lessons from a "life" sport they can continue to do all their lives. BTW, a meal or a protein drink w/in 30 mins of their workout is optimum for their muscles. Vitamins are a must.

A little pressure can be a good thing
- Swimming is an incredibly intensive sport - not only for the kids in the pool, but for the parents as well. The practices, the waits, the drives, the competitions, keeping the wheels going and providing support when a cog slips. For parents of children who swim at a high competitive level, life is intense and they can be forgiven for hoping their own and their children's efforts will bear fruit. We know our kids can't hear us in the pool. But we yell anyway - okay so maybe not "swim, swim" - it's called creating atmosphere and positive energy. Nothing worse than when 8 kids touch up after a 400m free with nothing but silence from the crowd. What I have learned is that not even the best coach knows everything. Learn, watch and ask questions. You'll notice a slight shift in attention and emphasis. PS - love the suggestion about frozen grapes! Will definitely try it next time.

Crazy parents
- I have seen a lot of crazy parents at swim meets. They seem much more interested in how well their kid does in comparison to another swimmer on the team than even the kid does. I feel this is a huge turn off to not only the other parents but also the kid himself. If the parent is constantly expecting too much out of their swimmer than that child is not going to enjoy that sport for very long. I have seen parents say to their child that they have to beat this person or that person even on their own team. How desperate is that for a parent to do that. Parents, in my opinion, should really think what this is all about. This is suppose to be fun not cut throat for every practice and every meet they attend. My swimmer does not even want to swim in a lane during practice with some kids because they cheat just to get ahead in the lane. Most of the time it is the parents telling the kid they must quickly get ahead of another kid so they look good. They are just cheating themselves. Have Fun

Tell the coach what works for your child
- My daughter is seven and has a heck of a time with her rotation on backstroke, so she ends up zig-zagging down the lane. While she still practices backstroke, for meets her coaches put her in other individual events where she's stronger. It's helped her enjoy the meets more in the near term, and hopefully as her backstroke improves, she'll be ready to take it on as an individual event again. The point is, don't hesitate to give some respectful input where it comes to your own child's strengths, weaknesses, and motivation strategies!

Coach Turn Off
- When my son was a freshman in high school he loved swimming and diving. He was good at it and was excited to join the swim club. The swim coach approached him and asked him to join the diving team telling him that he could be a major competitor. My son said "no thanks." The coach phoned me at home asking me to urge my son to join. Not a nice guy, very forceful. I explained to him that my son was not interested in swimming or diving as a competitive sport and I was going to honor his decision. He then tried to bully me by asking me what kind of parent I was, insisting I take charge and make my son do the right thing. Whoa! A couple of weeks later my son stopped going to the pool altogether because the coach kept showing up and pressuring him to join the dive team. He told my son he was wasting his talents, was not being loyal to the school, rah, rah. That man took the joy of swimming right out of my son.

Swim Team Tips
- With four swimmers, now in their teens and 20s, and more swim meets than I care to remember under my belt, I just want to urge parents not to care more about the outcome of a swim meet - the times and stats - than their kids do. For the vast majority, swimming is going to be a fun way to stay fit for life, not a ticket to college scholarships (just 2% of all teen athletes get scholarships to college, and the vast majority of those are not full rides) or Olympic glory. So support your swimmers, enjoy their successes, don't sweat the stats and above all, don't pace up and down the pool deck screaming "Swim! Swim!" like some parents I've seen. :-) Also: Body Shop body butter helps hydrate sun parched skin, frozen grapes are awesome snacks, and get yourself a comfy little stadium seat, the portable kind with good back support. You'll be spending many years in those bleachers!

We love Swim Team
- My kids have been part of a summer swim team for seven years now. I love the sport, as I think it allows them to compete individually, but also be part of a team. Swim meets can be quite long, with lots of downtime waiting between events. We always pack a swim bag with: plenty of towels; a Sharpie pen for writing event, heat and lane info on our kids' hands, extra goggles and swim caps, sunscreen for outdoor summer meets, water bottles (you still get thirsty, even if you're in the water!), and plenty of activities. The kids bring their Game Boys/iPods and I always pack a book to read. Another fun thing to have in the bag are waterproof (plastic) playing cards. Finally, my advice is to make friends with the other parents. It can be a great social experience for both the swimmers and the parents, and it is fun to hang out together through the meets.

A method and apparatus is disclosed for improving the performance of a digital computer by reducing the latency of read operations and increasing available write bandwidth by utilizing a subset of the address bits which are the same from one operation to the next. A faster cycle type (e.g. page mode or static column) can thereby be employed in the Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM) memory by eliminating the DRAM precharge and RAS address portions of the cycle.
1. A fast memory system, comprising
a static column dynamic random access memory (DRAM);
a command queue for receiving memory commands and providing DRAM address signals in response to said memory commands;
a RAM control means for receiving said DRAM address signals and issuing DRAM control signals to said DRAM; and
address compare means for comparing successive DRAM address signals and providing a RAM control signal to said RAM control mans when a select portion of said DRAM address signals are equal, wherein
the RAM control signal is asserted for a new command without providing a different subsequent row address signal.
2. The fast memory system of claim 1, wherein said RAM control means further includes means for deasserting the write (W) and chip select (CS) before said write (W) and chip select (CS) signals are reasserted for a subsequent write command having a row address corresponding to the row address of the previous command.
3. A method of high speed static column dynamic random access memory data transfer, comprising the steps of:
issuing a first read command for writing data into said DRAM for data having a first address comprising a plurality of signals;
issuing a second read command for reading data from said DRAM for data having a second address comprising a plurality of signals; and
comparing said first and second address;
starting said second read operation associated with said read command before said first read operation associated with said write command when the data provided by said DRAM in response to said read operation does not affect said first read operation and when said first and second addresses share at least a common portion of said address signals.
4. A method a high speed static column dynamic random access memory data transfer, comprising the steps of:
entering a plurality of commands into a queue including a respective plurality of queue locations, said plurality of commands each including a row address select field;
advancing each of said plurality of commands from each of said respective plurality of queue locations to a respective plurality of next queue locations and toward a next command to be executed location, for subsequent execution by a memory control means including a state machine;
comparing said row address select field of a current command being executed, with said row address select field of a next command to be executed to generate a result;
outputting said result to said memory control means;
affecting a sequence of execution of said state machine in accordance with said result; and
performing memory operations in accordance with control signals generated by said memory control means in response to said sequence of execution of said state machine.
5. The method of claim 4 further including the step of:
multiplexing a plurality of addresses to said dynamic random access memory in accordance with said sequence of execution of said state machine.
6. The method of claim 4 wherein said plurality of commands include read, write and read-modify-write commands.
7. The method of claim 4 further including the steps of:
selecting a read command in said queue that is closest to said next command to be executed location;
sequencing through a plurality of write commands in said queue and comparing said row address select field of each of said plurality of write commands with said row address select field of said read command;
waiting until a write command which has been in said queue longer than said read command and having the same row address select field as said read command, is executed;
promoting said read command to said next command to executed location when there is a current command being executed; and
promoting said read command to said current command being executed,
8. The method of claim 4 wherein said step of affecting a sequence of execution of said state machine involves branching back in said sequence to a column address select state when data is available to perform a memory operation and said row address select field of said current command being executed is the same as said row address select field of said next command to be executed.
9. The method of claim 8 wherein a chip select control signal and a write command control signal are deasserted prior to branching back in said sequence to said column address select state, when said current command being executed is a read command and said next command to be executed is a write command.
The present invention relates to computer memory systems, and in particular to cache memory systems.
High speed computer memories, in particular cache memory performance is strongly influenced by the amount of time necessary to fill the cache memory with new data required by the processor. The sooner such a read operation can be started in main memory, the less time it will take to fill the cache. The influence of read latency on performance is derived from the read latency times the cache miss rate. This is the amount of time by which an average processor cycle will be increased due to cache read latency.
The method and apparatus according to the present invention starts a read operation before a previously issued write operation, except that a read operation need only wait for write operations to complete if they have an impact on the data to be obtained by the read operation. Therefore a read may be promoted ahead of any write operation which does not conflict.
The opportunity for promoting reads over writes occurs anywhere writes are buffered. In these places the read operation address range is compared to older write operations stored in the buffer or queue. If the addresses do not overlap, then the write can have no effect on the result of the read and the read is promoted and issued first. If the addresses do overlap, then the read waits for the write to be issued. The address comparison may be done sequentially by stepping through the queued write commands, as in this implementation, or it may be done in parallel by replicating the address comparison logic.
In a read cycle, the cycles for a typical static column DRAM are; (1) Row Address applied, (2) Row Address Strobe asserted, (3) Column Address applied, (4) Column Strobe asserted, (5) Strobes deasserted for a precharge time. If the Row address is the same from one operation to the next, then phase 5 of the current cycle and phases 1 and 2 of the next cycle (and 4 for static column devices) may be omitted thereby decreasing the amount of time required for the next cycle. Identical savings may be made with write cycles. Address comparison logic is used to determine if the bits which select the set of DRAMs to be used and the Row Address Strobe address bits are the same. This ability to use a shorter cycle increases memory performance and reduces the amount of time it takes to clear writes from the command queues and also reduces the latency on read operations.
These and other features of the present invention are better understood by reading the following detailed description of the invention, taken together with the drawings, wherein:
FIG. 1 is a prior art DRAM control state diagrams;
FIG. 2 is a DRAM control state diagram according to one embodiment of the present invention;
FIG. 3 is a block diagram of one embodiment of a DRAM address and control unit according to the present invention; and
FIG. 4 is a block diagram providing further detail of the command and address range elements showing sequential address comparisons.
Further details of one embodiment of a memory system is shown in copending application U.S. patent application Ser. No. 07/263,112 A FLOATING POINT PIPELINE PROCESSOR, filed Oct. 26, 1988, incorporated by reference, and U.S. patent application Ser. No. 07/264,058, entitled AN EFFICIENT CACHE WRITE TECHNIQUE THROUGH DEFERRED TAG MODIFICATION, filed concurrently herewith and incorporated by reference.
The following memory device read or write steps, cycles, states, signals and associated hardware, individually, and in the prior art combination, are known to those of ordinary skill in the art and further defined in product specifications and application notes provided for exemplary DRAMS 256kx4 100 ns static columns DRAM manufactured by Toshiba TC514258J-10, Mitsubishi M5M44C258J-10, Hitachi HM514258JP-10 and FUJITSU MB81C4258-10PJ.
In the prior DRAM cycle illustrated in the state diagram 50 of FIG. 1. When a standard cycle starts (from Idle, 52), the DRAM row address portion of the command is driven on the DRAM address lines and the DRAM control lines, Row Address Select (RAS) Chip Select (CS) and write W are deasserted. The RAS control line is asserted in state RAS 54, then, in state CS/W the columns address is driven on the DRAM address lines and either CS (for a read cycle) or CS and W (for a write cycle) is asserted. The normal progress is then to state data available 58 (DAV) to latch in the data on a read cycle, or to assert CS to perform a write cycle. The cycle then completes by proceeding to state Pchg, 60 which deasserts all control lines and then to Idle 52.
By contrast, the operation of the DRAM according to the present invention is illustrated in the state drawing 70, FIG. 2 and associate control 100 of FIG. 3. The operation of states 72, 74 and 76 correspond to states 52, 54 and 56 of FIG. 1. If, in DAV 78, we recognize the RAS address for the current cycle is the same as the RAS address for the next command to be executed, then we can branch back to CS/W 76 either directly or through state Ovlp 77. In the state Ovlp 77, both W, 123 and CS, 122 control signals are deasserted to avoid unintended write operations to the DRAM(s) 130. Ovlp 77 may be used all the time if the timing requirements of the DRAM cannot be met otherwise, but is always required when the current cycle is a read and the next cycle is a write so that there is no possible overlap between the assertion of CS for the previous cycle and W for the next cycle. The transition from state DAV 78 to CS/W 76 eliminates either two or three (depending on whether Ovlp is used) of the five states required for the standard cycle.
Similar savings accrue for a read-modify-write cycle. The standard (prior art) cycle performs a read cycle as described above passing through states Idle 52, RAS 54, CS/W 56 and RW1 62. Then the data read is modified and written to the same address in states RW2 64 and DAV 58. The cycle then completes by passing through Pcgh 60 and returning to Idle 52.
By contrast, the present invention provides that if, in state DAV 78, (having arrived through states 72, 74, 76, 82 and 84 analogized to previously described in reference to states 52, 54, 56, 62 and 64), the RAS address of the next command and the RAS address of the current cycle are equal, then the state machine passes to CS/W either through Ovlp 77 or directly 79. Therefore, the system and method of the present invention saves two or three (72, 74 and 80) of the seven cycles required by the standard cycle 50 of FIG. 1.
The memory structure 100 of FIG. 3 provided commands for DRAM operations (read, write, read-modify-write) which are entered into the command queue (110). At each cycle, the command progresses through the queue if the next adjacent entry is empty. At each level a comparison is done in parallel (102, 104, 106, 108) between the RAS address field of each entry in the queue and the RAS address of the current cycle being executed by the DRAM control (120). The comparator output associated with the next command to be executed by the DRAM control is selected (112) and presented to the DRAM control to affect the flow of its state machine. The DRAM control presents RAS, CS and W control signals 121, 122 and 123 and a multiplexed RAS/CS address on leads 114 to the DRAM array (130) to control its operation according to the state shown in diagram 70 of FIG. 2.
An embodiment of the control logic shown in FIG. 4 selects the next read command to be executed using multiplexer 210 and sequences through all older write commands in the queue using multiplexer 211 comparing the address ranges using comparitor 212. If any older write conflicts in address, then the control logic waits until that write command is being executed to promote the read to be the next operation to be executed. Otherwise the read command is promoted immediately and presented to the DRAM control logic via multiplexer 209 when the current command being executed (if any) is no longer needed by the DRAM control.
Moreover, the present invention permits the merging of the data from the read operation of the memory with data which is to be updated by the pending write commands in order to allow promotion of reads over write operations which do conflict in address.
Furthermore, the present invention when implemented can provide a sequence of commands to a processor permitting out-of-order execution of commands (including writes) in the main memory, optimized using these shorter cycles. For example, in the case of two operations which share a RAD address and are separated by other operation(s), the second operation could be executed out of order. ##SPC1##

Hmm... Hmmmmmm.... Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Wonder how practical it is? Anyone try?
I did...if you load up on 5 energy skills it is impossible to run out even if you spam nonstop. You simply just don't drop in energy. It makes sense though. You recover 1.3 energy per second at 4 arrows and only need 1 energy point per spell.
Last edited by Ahastar Darktalon; 02-10-2005 at 03:14.
I use the combo since the latest update and it really works nicely. If you make sure to cast the Divine Spirit again before it runs out, it only costs you a total of 10 energy to keep it up (5 for the glyph, 5 for the spirit).
I am even using Aura of faith. With the boost on my weapon, enchantments now use 50% longer. So I keep up Divine Spirit with the Glyph all the time (have to refresh it every 20 seconds or so). With that I can cast a 15 seconds healing breeze for 5 hp all the time. Combine that with 15 seconds healing seeds and 45 seconds vigorous spirits and you will see the picture.
The Glyph and Divine Spirit have a quite fast casting time. It is hard to interrupt them. If the enchants don't get removed/shattered/drained, you can just spam healing non-stop.
Happy healing and protting monkeys!
You mean Blessed Aura. Aura of Faith is the elite that increases the amount that target ally is healed.Originally Posted by Amorphist
Note that if you're stripped, you will not be able to recast Divine Spirit again until the glyph has recharged without incuring the normal 60s cooldown, and it will cost you 15e to do so. Worst case scenario, you get hit right after it goes up - you waste 15e and spend 15s without energy management. Not a total catastrophe, I guess.
This is a good find ... going to try it out in my boon/reversal spam build! :happy14:
Hmm.. has anyone tryed this **** with spellbreaker? :surprise:
No, because you can't. Since Renewal and Breaker are both elites.Originally Posted by Bollox

Oliver Nelson had recorded several sessions for Prestige when the fledgling Impulse! label gave him the opportunity to make this septet date in 1961. The result was a rare marriage between an arranger-composer's conception and the ideal collection of … see full wiki
Although these three Oliver Nelson albums don't have the exact same personnel, I consider them all sisters, and classics. This one (Blues and the Abstract Truth), Screamin' the Blues, and Straight Ahead. All three of these are essential, in my opinion. Yes Abstract is the one that gets more press, but if you haven't heard Screamin' and Straight Ahead, you are missing some excellent music.
Stolen Moments and Yearnin' are what I would consider to be the two legendary melodies here, but the whole album is packed full of greatness. Yearnin' is also interesting to me because in a way, it has some of my least favorite Dolphy playing. The melody is beautiful, but when Dolphy enters his solo he does so in an abrasive way that really doesn't fit the song. In a sense, he shatters the mood of the song. It's odd to hear this from him. Then one song later he enters his solo in epic fashion. It's one of my all-time favotite Dolphy moments.
If you're anything like me, every time you listen to one of these three Nelson albums you'll wonder to yourself why Nelson himself isn't more often thought of as one of the best tenor players ever. His tone is so gorgeous and his playing is creative and emotional. He almost never fails to move me and surprise me. He could have been the best tenor player in any church in America.
As usual, Chambers and Haynes are right on, always. They propel this band like only the greats can do. I can't help but think that no bass player ever, aside from maybe James Jamerson (Motown), played on more legendary sessions than Paul.
Also, I love the quality of this recording. The tones are so full and rich, and there is an almost magical glow around every note. This is one of those albums where it all came together.

Hello everyone! Thanks for joining us for another issue of Pillow Talk Secrets. This time, Jade A. Waters, Tamsin Flowers and I – Malin James, your host for this episode – are talking about taboos in erotica, from underage sex to bestiality. It's a huge subject with enough to discuss for five episodes, but we do our best to take a bite out of the elephant, (in a completely consensual, non-literal sort of way) so, without further ado, I give you…
Pillow Talk Secrets
Malin: Hello ladies, how are you both doing this fine day?
Jade: Great, thank you. How are you both?
Tamsin: I'm very well – we have the sunniest day here and it's positively balmy! A bit of a shock to the system!
J: Oh, same here! I've got the loveliest glare on my computer screen. ;)
M: Ah, yes! My relationship to the sun isn't quite so friendly, but I'm always happy for those who love it…. So, we've been thinking about discussing taboo in erotica for awhile. Shall we tackle that today?
T: Yes, let's. It's an interesting subject. **Every publisher has a list of taboo topics – incest, bestiality, rape/non consensual sex, underage sex and so on. It's interesting that some subjects are taboo because the acts are actually illegal – necrophilia, for example – while others are widely held to be taboo on the grounds of taste, such as scat or watersports. But that begs the question, should publishers be acting as arbiters of taste in this way?
M: I think that's a great place to start, Tamsin. I like that you brought up the fact that "taboo" covers a lot of things, from serious consent issues (like rape and pedophilia) to different kinks and sexual tastes. It strikes me that putting rape in the same general category as two teens having consensual sex is a bit disingenuous, but that's how many mainstream publishers handle the issue. Better safe than sorry, I suppose, but it feels like a slippery slope. After all, rape is not the same thing as a consensual golden shower…
J: Right. And then we have lighter (and not necessarily illegal) taboos like the "dreaded infidelity." Oh dear…
M: Exactly. Some acts are simply more taboo than others. Cheating in erotica (and certainly romance) is taboo, but you can get away with it, while incest is a much harder sell in mainstream publishing…unless you're George R.R. Martin, of course.
T: I find the whole cheating thing a bit weird. This seems to be a reader taboo rather than a publisher taboo – and why not have it in a story if the cheater gets their comeuppance?
J: I agree – but it seems that, to increase readership, publishers follow the tendency. This is very strange to me, since it's actually such a common event in real life. Plus, cheating is not necessarily a one-time thing for characters – often there's so much more depth to it.
T: I've never seen it on a publisher's list of no-nos.
M: I don't think I have either. It might just be one that writers (and readers) shy away from, particularly in the romance / erotic romance market.
J: Maybe because we have to keep our good guys and girls looking good?
M: Possibly…personally, I'm more interested in seeing people be people, which means bad / grey area behavior, but that's definitely not something everyone wants.
T: Actually, this whole discussion makes me want to run off and write a hot cheating story in which the cheating heroine always gets away with it! (Actually, I have had one in mind for a while!)
M: Ha! Yes! And I would read that!
J: I wrote one a long time ago that's still awaiting some tender touch-up…it's got the hint of some sort of affair going on, and I've never quite decided if I want to keep that or cut it. Time will tell, I suppose. It's definitely not the taboo that the others are, though, for sure.
M: My story in Chemical (se)X is all about the dynamic in an affair. I guess it all depends…. Okay, so now, I'd love to actually tackle a taboo Tamsin brought up in a Skype – the difficulty with underage protagonists.
T: Yes, this is one that drives me mad. I think it's perfectly valid to want to write about teenagers having sex with each other – not with adults – but within their own peer group, because of course this is what happens. And I'm sure loads of teens would want to read it – to discover more about sexuality and relationships. But it's totally not allowed.
J: Right. We must keep the children safe, or whatever the theory is…. I get it, on one hand – but I also think it's strange that we can have so many violent books available for teens, and yet, the concept of them having sex (which we all know is totally happening) is strongly unacceptable on the page.
M: What's also interesting is that it really is the technicality of age that determines that taboo. Ella Dawson writes beautiful stories about college age students / people in their early 20's and they are brilliant, but if someone were to shave the ages down to 18, the same stories would not be acceptable in most publications, and would certainly get censored by Amazon.
T: Amazon is crazy – they took down my book, Zombie Erotoclypse, because one story is called "I Was a Teenage Zombie Virgin." The character was 18 – but just the words 'teenage' and 'virgin' in the blurb got it thrown off the site. When I changed the blurb it became once more perfectly acceptable, even though it was about humans and zombies having sex – another taboo, necrophilia!
J: 18 and 19 are legal teens! Jeezo, Amazon. It's really something.
M: The thing is that most of those words – 'virgin' and 'teenage' etc. – are getting flagged by software that doesn't consider context, which means that any time they pop up, it could be an issue. It's pretty ridiculous. What I'm curious about, is why the moral police at Amazon feel the need to indiscriminately flag those words to begin with…
T: I would imagine that for Amazon it's a business decision – in response to complaints from uptight customers who simply blanche at anything to do with sex! The moral majority – ha!
J: But you bet all your pennies that you can write wickedly dirty sex between a beast (wolf/other creature) and a woman (human) and all is a-okay. Because that's fantasy….which erotica is too, isn't it? Last I checked, we're creating sexual fantasy worlds.
M: Ah! That's interesting, Jade! And it sort of of brings up beastiality. So, werewolves and shifters are okay, but not animals (which is understandable – there's consent stuff, etc.), but I hadn't really thought about the why of it until just now. I'd wager it's because the weres have a human consciousness, but it's still a bit of a loophole, isn't it?
T: It's quite weird – vampire and zombies are the acceptable face of necrophilia, were beasts make bestiality okay – it's all a little hypocritical, isn't it?
J: Totally. And while I am not personally into stories about actual bestiality, I would in no way want to censor someone who wants to write or read it. I think it's odd that we as a society have this crazy tendency to say, "Well, this is okay. This isn't. And while you're doing this, don't write about that, because that would just be totally horrific and sinful to put out there or consume. Your brain is dirty. Stop that." You know?
M: The thing is is that the internet is full of stories about beastiality and incest and all the rest. Half of the Literotica site is taboo sex, because people want it. It's the publishing industry that blanches from it, possibly because these fantasies aren't socially sanctioned. It doesn't mean that people don't have them though.
T: And also, it's perfectly alright to write about any manner of violence – none of that seems to be censored. But as usual, 'sex is far more dangerous' – we mustn't forget that!
J: No, no. Don't forget it. Bring on your chain saws and masked murderers though – even those potentially killing children. That's considered okay.
M: Well, let's talk about taboos in BDSM erotica, because that's where perceived violence (in the form of consensual acts) and sex often intersect.
T: Yes – but let's face it, responses from you two on beta reading Alchemy recently made me stop and think – and then I censored myself over a couple of issues. It's something most writers do, I think – censor themselves, isn't it?
J: Well, I don't know that I'd call it censorship in all cases. Sometimes, we're trying to fit the needs of the characters, and the roles we've given them to play. Would you call it censorship if you're avoiding certain acts because it doesn't fit who they are? I don't know that I would.
T: That's a good point, Jade – I think in the example I just mentioned the story was in danger of veering off down a route that it didn't need to take.
J: I've totally been there. In writing The Assignment, I went way too far at one point – and I reeled it back in because ultimately, it was so not who the character was. I didn't have an issue with the acts themselves, though. They might well happen with another pairing at another time.
M: That's a great point, Jade. And I agree with you about those acts and the pairing involved. If an act, even a taboo one, is integral to the story or the character, then you should run with it, but if it isn't… perhaps not. It's all, in the end, about serving the story in the best way you can.
T: And I think in that case, it was perhaps also about reader expectations – the characters had been built up one way and then stepped into an altogether darker place – which could have disturbed the readers.
J: Now that I agree is something we do – cater to reader expectations – and that is, to me, a form of censorship. Which is precisely why we're "not allowed" to write all the taboo stuff!
M: Yes, I think reader expectations must play a large role in what's sanctioned and what isn't, particularly for mainstream publishers that don't cater to a niche audience. It makes me see the value of trigger warnings (which I have mixed feelings about) and the like.
J: Dammit. Can't we all just be a little more accepting of the creative process? And yes, those trigger warnings…I have mixed feelings on those too, to say the least.
T: But as usual our genre is somehow expected to be ever so careful – while crime and horror can do what the hell they want? It reminds me of the recent safe sex debate – no other genre is expected to be safe or educate their readers – why us?
J: Oh man. That's a taboo too, for some! And we could spend a whole conversation on that one, I think!
M: Actually, I'd love to have a conversation one of these days on that subject alone. It's definitely topical and very involved.
T: I can't tell you the stick I've had from some quarters about not including condom use in Alchemy – and its' a f**king fantasy!
J: Lordie. You know what I think we should do? All three of us should write a story together. It will be about a 17-year-old girl having sex with a 90-year-old werewolf where they don't wear condoms and the werewolf has a wife, and of course maybe they like to choke each other. What do you think?
T: Can I bring an axe? And are they brother and sister?
J: Did I skip that piece? Yes, they are. Of course.
M: Ha! I think we've got a taboo riddled winner there!
J: *Aside* Readers, we are so going to write an entire book on this one day. Just you wait. *Rubs hands together.*
T: Yay! A three-way!
M: Well, now you're talking ;) Okay, ladies, on that delicious note, I suspect we should wrap it up! We covered a lot of ground….
J: Totally.
T: Wonderful!
J: It's been fun, ladies. And readers, thank you for joining us on this taboo journey…
M: Absolutely – thanks for joining us again. And, as always, feel free to leave us your thoughts in the comments. There are lots of different ways to think about taboos in erotica, and we'd love to know what you think.
T: And we look forward to seeing you next time!
M: Bye!
J: Bye, everyone!
Jade, Malin and Tamsin

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Ascent Resources AST – change of direction?
One of my most badly timed shares buys of the year 'Ascent Resources' is starting to look look it's fortunes are about to change…
I bought AST early this year after watching it for some time. In mid February they announced that they had successfully completed the first phase of operations on the Pg-11 well in the Petišovci Project in Slovenia. It was announced that the results significantly exceeded the companies expectations. For all intensive purposes the project was now substantially DE-risked and It looked like an excellent opportunity to buy in… So I did.The SP initially spiked right up to nearly 10p before being hammered by short sellers, a few world disasters and an announcement of a "5p 'Institution only' placing,". This sent us all the way back to 5p per share. Completely oversold in my opinion!
Things have been looking up for Ascent over the last few weeks. In March they successfully raised 17m in funding to further develop their ongoing projects. Controversially this was raised from Institutional investors rather that being made public. The shares were placed at 5p. Yesterday it was announced that all resolutions had been passed and that 240,000,000 Placing Shares have been allotted and will be admitted to trading on AIM at 8 a.m – Today.
In Mid March it was also announced that two directors had increased their stakes.
Yesterday it was announced that second stage of drilling at the Petišovci Project had commenced. The second RNS announced that "Investec Asset Management Ltd" have increased their holding to 5.46%. – All Encouraging signs.
In addition to my current holding I placed a 'Buy bet' today. The risk/reward ratio is looking excellent!
All my spread-betting is done through IG.www.igindex.co.uk/?QPID=46523987&QPPID=1
