Leap year is a fraud, maintains tbo Chioago Times-Herald. "There are now 3,O0C,000 bachelors in this coun¬ try and tbe surplus of matrimonial raw material is constantly growing.

Senator Cavis, ot Minnesota, says that the oonntry bas never experienced sneh hard times as in 1857. "Money was not only scarce, but there was nn money in circulation—nouo to bo had anywhere. Along the Chippewa, Blaek, Mississippi aud othor riveis sawloga were legal tender. Iu fact, everything that possessed any sort ol value passed as token money.

HAD been in lue employ of the bank¬ ing houso of Day ,V Cu. from a boy, and worked my way up¬ ward from one po¬ sition tu auother until I occupied tbe responsiblo post of Idler. Old Mr. Day liked aud trusted me, aud, as au es¬ pecial mark ot his favor, was in the babit of inviting me to dinner nu Sunday afternoons, a favor I shnrad with Jt-rumo Nay Ior, tbe cashier and jncior partner io tho flrm. Mr. Day waa a widower, and bis only daughter aud heiress, Enid, did tbo honors of his table. Beautiful Euid Day I I shall never forget, nor do I wish to forget, while I live, tbat aftozuoon ot our first meet¬ ing. It waa one of those dull, sound¬ less autumnal days, when tbe frowning sky threatens atorm and yet withholds it, oppressiag the heart with a vaguo sense of something evil to come, snd a profound melancholy which one can neither define nor shake off. Yet as 1 entered that parlor a swift change to inexplicable happiness came ovor me. Standing there, where the warm hue from the half-drawn crim¬ son curtains fell acroi's her simply •lad ligure, nhe seemed to me like the embodiment of all tho song, perfume, sunshine and oxhilaratiun of early spring. She was very voung, but her form, despite its girlish immaturit.r, was nobly developed. Her face, with its Eoft, oval onlline, its pallor, deep¬ ening in tbo checks to the tints of a rose's faeartt the large, violet eyes—a child's eyes in thoir innocence, and yet a womau's eyes in their depth aud suggestion ot strong emotion—ber faoe, I say, as 1 saw it at that momeut, uever again faded fiom my sonl. At that flrat instaut I loved her; ond it was with a voico tbat shook and a hand that, touching ber little palm, trembled as if guilty of a sacrilege, that 1 greeted her. Jerome Naylor, standing by, wit¬ nessed our lirst meeting; and as, by aome intuition, I glanced aside at him, I caw a look in his pale eyos tbat I re¬ called long afterward. Then I was too confused, too inexperienced in lore of lovc, to comprehend its mcauing. But there came a day when I could inter¬ pret only too clearly, its bitter malice and hateful resolve; for .lerome Nay¬ lor bad long loved Enid Day, as such men love; had even oflered bimself and been refused, and his keen glance bad already detected a riral in thc blunilering, stammering youth, whoso rolo thought at the moment was bum¬ ble, almost unconscious, adoration. Yet, it was more than simple love ; it was wonder, rcveronce aud devotion soch ns, in tbe old time, tbe prostrate worshiper felt for his divinity. As limo went on, and I saw ber again and again, my love grew upou me, ua¬ til it becnmu tbe ruling principle ol mv life; and as I came tn know my own hoart I aiuo learned bow wild a bope it was that I unurinbod iu my breast. Evin if eo rare an example of Qod'sbaiidiwnrk could have stooped to lovc so unworthy a man aa I knew myself to be, bow could a salaried clerk of tbe rich banker )ireteud to tho baud of his only daughter and heiress? So dsy by day the gloom of a deep despondency darkened upon my life. I grew ailent aud abstraoteil. I per¬ formed my duties as faithfully as ever, but I uu longer laughed and jested with my fellow clerks, uur joined in the amusements of thoir leisure hours. Jerome Naylor wan invariably oourle- ous in lis treatment ul mc, but I caught more than oue sidowiiio glance of bis eye, that, had I boon lees ab¬ sorbed iu my uwu trouble, might have startled me. But hopeless nf tbo one thiug which could have made existence valuable lo me, what bnd I to lear from Iho worst his malice could devise':* Latterly I bad absented myself from the UKual Sunday alteruoon gathering at my employer's table. One day ho came tn mo whore 1 benl over my books, and clapping me upon tlio tboulder, iu hia genial, kindly fash¬ ion, said; ¦•rre?cotl, mv boy, if ynn do uot dine with uk to-morrow alternoon, you will makujan enemy of Eniil." 1 muttered sumething about not having felt vi-ry well uf IhIi-. "That IS wbat I told my girl," re¬ plied Mr. Day. "I i^aid you were looking tbin ami pale and generally ont of sorts. Whereupou she aston¬ ished me by gHlliug very angry and accusing yon of-what was it?—ego¬ tism, I believe, though why, wby, I do uot quite understand. .\uy wny, she lua lu it a coudiliou of ber future favor tbat you ahoiiM tnke dinner with US to-morrow, ho 1 Invo ileliv- ero-l my mfuage. You'll come, uf 3oiirei', Xaylgr?" Theu I saw that thc cai<bier bal beeu slnnding behind Mr. Day aul had overhear.I our c.niv.-rsaliou. "1 shall bo deli»,<bled, " rcbpomltd Naylor, with a peculiar >;Unet> at me. ".Vnd surely our yonuu frieu 1 oiiunul reutt su iuvitution cotiohe.l m ^ ic'.i terms and emanating from sjch a source''" "I will come," I faid brieli.e, for the cashier a luauuer aflected toe with su inexplicablv nopl lu-ucl ^cUbdliou, auil tutued again lo my work.

I reproved. 1 turned and caught both the warm little hauda in mine, and, scarcely conscious ol what I did, iiftod them to my lips and kiasc.l them iu turo. Her name Eeeinod to tear it¬ self from the depths of my bosom wilh nn accent of passion nud pleading thi.t must have tol I her my wholo story, bad she beeu iguorant of it be¬ fore. "Enid! Beautiful Enid!" A wave of delieious color swept over her face an.l lliroat. Eor a second ber hanJs Irern'oled in mine, nay, cluni; to tbcm; her beautiful head drooped; ber eyes sought my eager gaze, and fell; then, with a quick gesture, she withdrew herself, aud iu cool, even tones welcomed Mr. Jerome Naylor, whu pushed aside thc purliore and walked quietlv intu the room. Had be seen, bad be overbcird any portion of our interview'? It was im¬ possible to judge. lie was gallantly respectful towar.I Euid, and frauk and friendly toward me. Duriug the din uer ho conversed Hueutly, touching, as it appeared, casually, upon certaiu defalcations of a trusted clerk in a bank with wbich wo held intimate business relations. Once, and only onoe, 1 thought 1 delected that mnle- volent glance Hxed upou me; but if I was right it passed liko a Hash, and was not repeated. I left the Day mansion wilh a heart that aang like a joyous bird, I was at peace with tbe whole world. Life was a glorious, gorgeousltbing. ThQ pnr¬ ple bud of hope seemed to bo upon the point of unfolding into spleudid llower. But 1 was reckoning without Jerome Navlor. As tho days went by 1 became cog¬ nizant ot a whisper, whose source no ono conld trace—a whisper oi somo¬ thing wrong in the aocoants of tho bank; of money unappropriated, of books falsified. .Vbsorbed in my dreams I gave no heed to tho change in tbo demeanor of my fellow clerks, of the coldness oi my employer, of the glee of thc cashier, Jerome Naylor, until, without preparation, witbont warning, the blow fell! 1 was accused nf robbing the bauk of funtls en¬ trusted to my caro. For the moment I wnn utterly stunned, proelrate, helpless! Wheu tbe charge wiis Hnng into my teeth I stared, stammered, stood thunder¬ struck, unable to defend myself, or to comprehend tbo magnitude of the crime of which 1 was declared gnilty. I wns commanded to appear before my employer, at his residence, to un¬ dergo uu examination. When I en¬ tered tho room, Mr. Day, looking sad aud grave, woa seated before a small table covered with books and papers. .\t his olbow, witb an evil smile upon his dark features, sat Jerome Naylor. In a load, angry voice I denied tbe charge of a loog and systematic course of peonlation, and demanded tbe pro- duoliou of evidence. Mr. Day looked hesilnlingly at Naylor, who, drawing hia chair nearer tbe table, and clear¬ ing bis throat, began: "I am sorry to see our youug friend adopting this unwise course, know¬ ing, as he mnst, that I bavo a oonfoa- sion of bis wrong doing, uuder his own hand and signature." I stared at bim open-moathed. Tbe iufernal imprudence of the man u'ueo' lutely bewildered mc. "Ves," he oontiuued, in o tone of profound melancholy, "more tbau five yesrs ago 1 detected this unfortunate young mau stealing money from tbo bank. 1 charged him with his crime, aod in tho agony of his remorse be wrote a full confessiou, begging mo to spare bim and to give him another chance. Considering bia years, and tbe fearfnl consequeuoes of such an exposure, I consented to condone his offence, making good his peculations from my own slender means," "Noble follow!" murmured Mr. Day, graspiua; his cashier's haud warmly, while I remaiuod mute, chok¬ ing with rago, incapable of utturiug a word in my own defeuco, "But iu view gf these latler develop meutt," went ou tho cashier, "1 feel that I should do wrong to withhold the truth any longer." "Surely! surely 1" ejaculated Mr. Day, gazing at me sadlr. "Hut I would never bave believod it ot you, Treseolt. Never!" "May 1 see that p.iper purporting to be my confession?" I aiked, finding m.-y voico at last. 1 "Do not let it pass out of yout band, Mr. Diiy," interposed Naylor, hastily. "I do not desire lo tonch it,"I said. "If Mr. Day will ailow uie to look at It as it lies upou tbe table beforo bim, it will HuSloe." Then 1 beut ovar and read; and as I read Ihe lett«rs awam before my eyes, and a thrill of utter terror seized my limbs, fur Ibere, in my own band- wriling, was a i-hameful coufession nl I'iu and degradation. My owu band- writing? No! n t houss nd times, no! I knew thnt it wna not, that my fingers liad ucvi-r penned thoce damuiug nordc. llul who could detect the dif¬ ference? Who would nail tho foul for«ery? No une, no one! For the muuicDt 1 felt crushiiil aud wholly lo.l. .Kt I htood hiJiug my iace in my hands, feeling Ihnt in another moment I mnat sink to the Iloor, tbere was a light, quick step behind me, thc rus¬ tle ol skirts, a soft touchiuu my arm. "I do uot —I e.anuot think wrong of yon, llegiiinlil," murmured a voice tbat thrilled evory nerve in my frame. "l''athcr, iet me loo'.i at that paper." Mr. Day would have objected; .ler iiiuc Naylor. with a white face, at ti-nipted to i-unlcb tiie paper from her itraup. Iiut slie waa to.i iiuiek for hiiu. uu.l luKiu;; the writteu nUuet tu tlie V. liiiluw she utoo I slu iTiug it long aud iittcutively. 1 watclit I her breatbleisly.

With hn mrrow.nl, bcnig- udut aniiecl, watched her too. i'reaeLll.v she eamt iDwar I nii aaiaiu. will prove it. " Looking Nnylor, wbo seemed scarcely oble to stand, straight in the face, sbo continued in Ibo sanie bell-like toues. "Uere is a confessiou wbich purports to hsve been writteu in May, ISnt, but it is on paper that wns not made until 1HS7! Will Mr, Naylor plea«o to explain?" "Wbat do you mean?" cried Mr, D.iy, |in amazement. "I.bok, fnther!" said Euid, holding Ihe sheet up before tho light. "Do you seo that watcr-mnrk? '.\mosk0a3 Mills, IS.'*:.'" Mr. Dav gavo bnt 11 glance, then turned a darkly frowning face upon Naylu.. "Can you explftiu this?" ho askid. Once, twice, Jerome Naylor essayed to speak, but could uot. Then, at length, a hoarse murmur escaped his lips: "I loved her, and I kuew sho loved him!" That was all. Stngcjeriug like a man stricken bliud, pitifully groping to¬ ward the door, he left the room and thc house. He never returned to his dosk at tbo bank, and iu due courso 1 became cashier in bis place, I hold the water¬ mark beyond price, both because it saved mo from ruin and diagraco, and becnii.so it aidod mo lo win the sweet¬ est and noblest wife that ever fell to thc lot of undeserving mau. SCIENTIFIC ANU INDUSTRIAL. Occasional instances have beeu found of perfectly puro native iron iu meteorites. Two Paris aeronauts are going to try to beat tho balloou record by re- maiuiug twenty-four hours in the clouds. A kerosene lamp with an elcotriool attachmont is eomothiuf^ new. Y'ou press a button, and uu electric flamo lights the lamp. A piumaking machine turns ont 8000 an honr, aud somo factories have as many as thirty or torly machines at work at oue time. A German inventor at S'aargcmund has pateuted au arrangement by means of which 11 runaway borso cnu bo stopped by simply teaobing a but¬ ton. Size for size, a thread of spider t-ilk is decidedly tougher tli.iu a bar of steel. Au ordinary throiid will bear a weight of throo (irains. That ia about fifty per cent, stronger than a steo! thread of tbo samo thickness. Luciuiu, wbioh eujoys thc distiuc tionuf beiug thc first supposed elo ment to be patented, has been ex¬ amined by Crookes, tho groat English chemist, who pronoances it an impure yttria, and not a new clement at all. It is now said that X rays exist in nature and are produced by tbo com¬ mon glow worm. Tbe light from tbeae tiny creatures has tho samo ca¬ pacity as tbo Boetgen rays for passing through ordiuary solid.". It will eveu penetrate thiu sheets ot aluminum. The latest catalogue gives 11,092 specimens as the number of snakes iu tbe British Museum, London. This ii tbo most complete colleotion over made, representing, according to Dr. 0. A.

Tbe chief of the Berlin police has invited bin colleagues iu the vnrious cities and towus uf tho Oerman Em¬ pire to take part in a meeting tor the purpose of discussing Ibo advisability of adopting tho Burlillon system of identifying criminals by anthropo- mctiy. It is knovin that tho manganese do- poaits of .Arkansas are more oxtonsivo than lias berctoforo been believed. Instead of pockets, it in alleged, bods havo been fouud, and veins varying in width from fonr inches to six feet.

There is a big lield iu Oermany for Americau rubbers, says United States Consul Monogban, at Chemnitz, in a report to tho State Department. At preseut Bussia is sup^ilying most of tbo rnbbers'worn in Uermauy, selling through agencies all over tbe empire, but neither the Bussian oor the Uer- man-maile artiole is as good as tbo Amerioan product, being olumay and lacking iu durability, although it commands tbe market just uow by reason of its lower price. Tbe Consnl also submits some statistics to show bow Germany is bailding np a large trade at England's expense witb Now Soatb Wales.

A statue of the Buddha is frequently found in Asian-themed gardens. This reflects the tendency for Buddhist temples and shrines to combine the beauty of nature with the meditative, peaceful demeanor of sculptures of the Buddha. In keeping with the peaceful tenets of Buddhism, many temples also act as sanctuaries for wildlife by protecting natural habitat and feeding the animals that frequent the surrounding bamboo groves and forests. For this reason, in places like Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam, they can be great places to see monkeys, exotic birds, and other Asian wildlife.
Although you won't find actual Asian animals like tigers and cranes in your Asian-themed garden, you can come close with our realistic, detailed sculptures. Complete the look of your Asian-themed garden by displaying both Buddha statues and animal garden statues such as Tian Shan, the Panda sculpture. Just like a real Giant Panda, this adorable statue has bright, inquisitive eyes, and is keeping busy by chewing on a bamboo stem.
Tigers are another animal that have been the subject of paintings and Asian folklore for centuries. Highlight your Asian-themed garden with a tiger sculpture that showcases the grace and power of this beautiful predator.
Get 20% off the regular price of these animal statues and everything on the Design Toscano site through Sunday, November 25th as part of our Black Friday Weekend sale!

UFC officials today announced the matchup.
UFC Fight Night 30 takes place Oct. 26 at Manchester Arena in England. The main card airs on FOX Sports 1 following prelims on Facebook. It's not clear where Parke vs. Tuck will be placed on the lineup.
UFC officials first targeted the bout at UFC on FOX 7 in April, but Tuck was forced off the card on event week due to an injury.

Much as I agree that the golems are really dumb looking (they look like plastic, not stone), the rest of it looks like it could end up being the best and most energetic DW apatation. A lot livelier and with a much bigger budget than Hogfather.

Paul Merson
Football Expert & Columnist @PaulMerse
New Blues for Fergie
Chelsea should beat Man Utd and Villa could be heading for the drop... Merse makes his predictions.
Last Updated: 26/10/12 2:06pm
As ever, you can follow all the Premier League action this weekend on Sky Sports.
We asked Soccer Saturday expert Paul Merson to look at the fixtures and give us his verdict on where the games will be won and lost.
Every week he'll be here on skysports.com to share his views on who he expects to be the winners and losers of the weekend.
Ford Football Special: Aston Villa v Norwich
12.30pm, Sat, Sky Sports 2 HD
I'll say this now: if Aston Villa lose this football match they will get relegated.
They play Man Utd, Man City and Arsenal in back-to-back games in November and they play Liverpool, Chelsea and Tottenham back-to-back in December. They'd need to play out of their skins to get a couple of points out of those games.
So they need to start getting points on the board quickly or else they'll be stuck in the bottom three by the time we get to Christmas.
Personally I think Paul Lambert is making a mistake with Darren Bent. He's not going to run around all afternoon, but when you have a team that doesn't make many chances then you need a striker who needs one chance to score a goal.
He came off against Fulham last week and Christian Benteke missed an absolute sitter to make it 1-1. Bent would have scored and that could have made such a difference to Villa's season. It's hard to find a goalscorer in football and that's why strikers cost the most money. He needs to play every minute.
Villa are low on confidence, but Norwich are on Cloud Nine after beating Arsenal. They'll go there, look to keep Villa quiet for 20 minutes and go from there. I've watched Norwich a few times this season and while they let in a lot of goals, they create a lot of opportunities. They always look like scoring.
This is a must-win game for Villa and I'll go with my heart because I hope they win... but I think they could go down if they don't.
Ford Super Sunday: Everton v Liverpool
1pm, Sun, Sky Sports 1 HD & Sky 3D
This is a heads or tails game, such has been the improvement made by Everton this season.
I would even make Everton favourites if Marouane Fellaini and Steven Pienaar were playing, but they are two big losses. That's akin to Steven Gerrard and Luis Suarez being missing for Liverpool.
Those two have been their major attacking players. Nikica Jelavic has been different gravy, but at the same time you're only as good as the people that provide for you.
Also, if you look at Everton's last two games, they've struggled against two teams in the bottom five in Wigan and QPR, whereas Liverpool have been becoming a better team with two clean sheets on the trot in the league.
I would advise them not to over-play in this game though. Liverpool have been good to watch this year, but sometimes they've become a bit predictable. Against Reading, they were rolling it out from the back but one dodgy pass will let the other team in.
Goodison Park is tight and compact and with the crowd behind them, Everton will squeeze Liverpool. If Brendan Rodgers doesn't alter his tactics then Everton might suffocate them. They need to get the ball in the other half; you don't want to mess around with it in your own half too much in this game.
But I don't think there will be much between the teams and I think we could see a draw.
Ford Super Sunday: Chelsea v Man Utd
3.30pm, Sun, Sky Sports 1 HD & Sky 3D
I definitely fancy Chelsea to beat Manchester United on Sunday.
Sir Alex Ferguson's team have been so suspect at the back this season it's been unreal. I watched their game with Stoke last week and they went 1-0 up and had chances to go two or three up. They also gave Braga a two-goal start in the Champions League.
They came back to win both of those games, but if you give Chelsea those opportunities then you ain't going to win the match. They've gone behind in eight out of 12 games and you can't keep giving teams head starts.
They've had a lot of injuries at the back and I think it's a certainty that Rio Ferdinand will come back in. I can't see him going with Michael Carrick in this game.
Man United have outstanding forwards, but they can't afford to be too open. I'd be shocked if he played the 4-3-3 system he used against Stoke and I'd expect a more compact 4-5-1 on Sunday because they can't afford to lose and go seven points behind Chelsea.
If you're the Chelsea manager the only option is to attack Man United from the start. I think they've been carrying Fernando Torres, but they're top of the league because the other attacking players have been very good, especially Juan Mata.
Also they haven't had too many key injuries so far. Frank Lampard is going to be a big miss and John Terry is obviously suspended, but I can't see them not winning this game.
Arsenal v QPR
The last two games have been absolutely atrocious for Arsenal. I'm no manager, but I can't understand how Arsene Wenger gets away with leaving a £12m striker on the bench and playing a winger up front and a midfielder on the wing. They've gone two games without scoring, so give Olivier Giroud a run in the team! They should beat a team that hasn't won a game this season - but I don't think QPR will have as much fear as they would have had three weeks ago.
Reading v Fulham
I'm doing this game on Soccer Saturday and I'm looking forward to it because it's a must-win match for Reading. This is one of those they would have circled at the start of the season and if they lose you wouldn't be surprised to see them go down. Fulham have done really well and have started giving teams a game in their away matches this year, but I hope the two teams don't cancel each other out. I'll lean towards a home win.
Stoke v Sunderland
I thought Sunderland would be mid-table this season, but they're now in that pack of clubs that could go down. I don't think many people could argue with that after watching them against Newcastle. They were shockingly poor for a derby game against 10 men and were lucky to get a point. They aren't scoring enough goals, they're relying on Steven Fletcher too much and I see them getting absolutely nothing out of this game. It should be comfortable for Stoke.
Wigan v West Ham
I always thought Sam Allardyce would do enough to keep West Ham up, but I've been surprised by how well they've started. After a shambolic performance at Swansea they've gone for it a bit more in their away games. Wigan are another one of those seven or eight teams in the relegation mix but they're not playing badly and I think we could see a Desmond here. There should be goals.
Man City v Swansea
This is a perfect game for Man City after a bad week because Swansea won't kick them off the pitch and they should win easily. I think the players have been using excuses over the tactics and the preparation and they have been a million miles off the pace in Europe. However, they have got much better players than Swansea and they should bounce back here... but the fans will wonder why they win these games and can't do it against the big teams in Europe?
Newcastle v West Brom
West Brom should not have lost to 10-man Manchester City last week and they were naïve to let it slip at the end. That late goal will dent their confidence and set them back a bit. Newcastle will be buzzing after drawing the derby and they got a good result in Europe too, so they'll look forward to this. It will be a good game because West Brom have pace on the counter-attack and I think it will be a very open game.
Southampton v Tottenham
As a neutral you want to watch Southampton because they have a go and the manager is very positive, but the simple fact is their defence is not good enough. It's nothing to do with tactics, players are sometimes out of their depth, and I think Tottenham will absolutely rip them to shreds. I always think Southampton will score (although I can't understand why Nigel Adkins dropped Rickie Lambert last week), but they won't be able to cope with Jermain Defoe.

The Consent Counts project involves the BDSM communities in a nationwide education and activism program coordinated and led by the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom. This multifaceted campaign includes a comprehensive is analysis of current laws and court decisions, the development of legal arguments for changing the laws, participating in court cases, and ultimately, through lobbying, education and grass-roots activism, changing state laws and the way the public and the courts view BDSM. An important element of the project also includes an Educational Outreach Program (EOP) to educate our own communities of the current state of the law, of the effort NCSF is undertaking and to involve them in our strategic planning process and development of "best practices" by which we can protect ourselves and facilitate change.

Chief Justice John Roberts prompted the discussion with remarks from his dissent after the Supreme Court ruled for same-sex marriage.
Here's how libertarianism has led me and my partner into polyamory, and why America will have to grapple with this issue next.
I dissent, Mr. Chief Justice!
NCSF's Incident Reporting & Response was created to provide assistance to individuals and groups within the alternative sexual expression communities. If you engage in SM, fetish, swing or polyamory practices, and are being persecuted or discriminated against because of it, please contact NCSF. If your group or business is being harassed by religious political extremists or if you need help doing outreach to your local law enforcement, please contact NCSF. GET HELP NOW!
The National Coalition for Sexual Freedom (NCSF)'s Incident Reporting & Response (IRR) Program uses three primary criteria for taking a case:
Incident Reporting & Response - 2014 Report
By Susan Wright
NCSF's Incident Reporting & Response helps people who are being discriminated against because they are kinky and/or nonmonogamous: 184 requests for help were received in 2014. One-fourth of the cases evolved into weeks- or months-long projects, requiring the education of a number of legal, medical and mental health professionals about kink. Other professionals who requested information or resources to better serve kinky people included: academics, social services, vanilla nonprofit organizations & events, authors, merchant services, and insurance brokers.
The drop in IRR requests can be partly attributed to the increased page views on NCSF's Kink Aware Professionals database, with over 1,200 kinky people directly accessing KAP in 2014 to find a lawyer, therapist or other professional rather than asking NCSF for help through Incident Reporting & Response. Recognizing the need for more professionals to be listed in KAP, in 2014 NCSF joined forces with GayLawNet, a free referral database of gay-friendly attorneys. GayLawNet also began offering a Kink Aware Professional category for their lawyers to self-identify as kink aware.
Of the 184 requests for assistance, the majority dealt with BDSM while only 6 involved polyamory/swing issues:
73 criminal issues
33 child custody
26 requests for info from professionals
20 kink group issues
10 discrimination issues
5 job discrimination
6 media related incidents
4 divorce
4 civil law issues
3 outings
Criminal issues
The 73 requests that involved criminal issues typically took the most time and effort to help resolve, including finding kink-aware legal representation and educating relevant professionals to remove kink as a barrier to services. The requests break down as follows:
42 – assistance with victim services, reporting an assault, sexual assault, blackmail or stalking to the police, and obtaining restraining orders
13 – referrals for kink-aware defense attorneys
6 – assisting sex workers who were arrested
6 – assisting people in dealing with: probation, sex offenders, sex traffickers
5 – research on state criminal laws and contracts
Child Custody/Divorce
In 2014, there was a significant drop in requests for help with child custody/divorce issues. That is due to the change in the DSM-5 criteria, which made it clear that people who are kinky are not mentally ill:
2014 – 37 people
2013 – * see note
2012 – 87 people
2011 – 115 people
2010 – 125 people
2009 – 132 people
An even bigger change due to the DSM-5 can be found in the percentage of kinky parents who now retain child custody. More kinky parents who come to NCSF for help are successful in removing kink as an issue in family court and with social service workers and Child Protective Services. Of the 33 cases, 3 are still ongoing, but of those that assigned custody:
2014 – 89% (27 out of 30 parents) custody was not removed because of kink.
2012 – 53% (41 out of 77 parents) custody was not removed because of kink.
2011 – 23% (23 out of 101 parents) custody was not removed because of kink.
2010 – 12% (13 out of 109 parents) custody was not removed because of kink.
There was also a drop in the number of requests from BDSM, swing and polyamory educational and social groups. Most people are now aware that they need to get professional advice in setting up their clubs and association papers, and it is common knowledge how to produce an event legally. As a result, NCSF received fewer requests for establishing a nonprofit or dealing with zoning laws, and instead primarily assisted groups in handling adversarial members, liability issues, doing outreach to local law enforcement, and handling media incidents. NCSF helped 20 kink groups in 2014 vs. 77 in 2012.
Requests for help with swing and polyamory issues dropped to less than 3% of the total requests in 2014 compared to nearly 9% in 2012 and nearly 5% in 2011. There has been a significant drop in the number of house parties as Lifestyle events have shifted toward a business model that uses club venues, cruise ships and hotels. This means fewer busted house parties, and less need for NCSF services.
The decline in discrimination against nonmonogamists may also be due in part to the success of gay marriage. The mainstream media covers relationship issues like nonmonogamy much more positively than it did five years ago. According to the NCSF Media Updates, of the articles that involved nonmonogamy as a subject:
2014 – 53 articles: 77% were positive and 23% were negative.
2013 – 42 articles: 81% were positive and 19% were negative.
2012 – 21 articles: 62% were positive and 38% were negative.
2011 – 33 articles: 30% were positive and 70% were negative.
2010 – 50 articles: 16% were positive and 84% were negative.
* Note: From 2002-2011, NCSF's Incident Reporting & Response received over 500 requests every year. In 2012, that number dropped to 474, likely due to the change in the DSM-5 and an increased use of KAP. The IRR data for 2013 was destroyed by Leigha Fleming when she deleted her emails and documentation from the NCSF server. Some people have reported receiving no response last year, and that may have contributed to fewer people coming to NCSF this year. Susan Wright took over as director of IRR in January, 2014.
Unfortunately, due to limited resources the NCSF is only able to take the cases that meet the criteria set by our mission. All of our work is done by volunteers and we accept no payment for our services.
We are however happy to receive donations earmarked specifically for use in the IRR Program. Click here to donate, Make sure you note "Incident Reporting & Response" or "IRR" in the comment box if you want to restrict your donation. We do provide basic information as resources dictate and referrals to professionals as part of our Kink Aware Professionals database.
The criteria for acceptance listed were developed to meet the primary concerns of our voting constituencies, our Coalition Partners. When the NCSF agrees to take a case the impact can be realized by all of our constituents as a whole and therefore it is up to the policies set in motion by NCSF Coalition Partners to decide whether existing resources allow for a case to be handled effectively.

I pretty much already showed you this…but here's some outdoor real life pictures. This quilt matches the snow outside…especially that scarf print.
I stepped in the biggest load of duck poop ever while I was taking this picture.
Its backed with one of my favorite aqua Target sheets and bound with a red Bliss print.
This pattern is available in my shop. It is made with a layer cake and has the finished look of a disappearing 9 patch, but it is even easier…promise. This pattern is perfect for the large print fabrics you don't want to cut up into little bits.

At first glance, this guy could be a WIN. The shirts cool, the shades are well-sized. But it was upwards of 80 degrees outside, and a white leather jacket and a sweaty forehead are a FAIL.
