'Sapore dei mobili' which literally means 'Furniture Tasting,' is a project that was born as a reflection about the velocity of the contemporary furniture industry and how consumers are unable to digest the huge amount of new products launched every year. At this year's Salone, industrial Designers Ryosuke Fukusada and Rui Pereira propose an alternative way of experiencing furniture.
How did I not know this? Brownies made in the waffle maker?? Brownies in 5 minutes?? Warm, and topped with ice cream? YUM.
Unlikely that I would buy for my dorm, but so, so cool. Flower chair.

Morecambe and Wise: The Garage Tapes, Radio 4
Pistols at Dawn, Radio 4
A hoard of early comedy sketches shows that later classics had a long gestation
Sunday 09 May 2010
I'm Rimsky-Korsakov. I've got a brother at home – he's got a cold on his chest. We call him Nasty-Chestikov. Boom-boom. My girlfriend used to be in a circus. She chewed hammers. Was she professional? No, hammer-chewer.
Shall I stop now? In the early 1950s a comedy new wave was breaking on the shores of the Light Programme. Spike Milligan and Michael Bentine were breaking all the rules in Crazy People, later The Goon Show, while the improvised In All Directions featured Peters Ustinov and Jones in a Beckettesque road movie, driving round in a perpetual search for Copthorne Avenue.
But some of the emerging talent cleaved to more traditional comic values, as evidenced in my intro. Eric Morecambe and Ernie Wise's idols were Abbott and Costello and the Marx Brothers, and it showed in their rat-a-tat routines. Apart from playing the perfect straight man, Wise took it upon himself to be the duo's archivist, and he recorded a stack of material which lay in suitcases in his garage for decades. "I don't think he ever played them back," his widow, Doreen, told Jon Culshaw in Morecambe and Wise: The Garage Tapes. "He just knew he should keep them." A wise decision, given the BBC's historic penchant for wiping stuff.
The elements we know and love from the TV shows are all there: the bad playlets, the song and dance routines, the guest stars ripe for mickey-taking, though not the stellar names of later shows. Then, it was the likes of Jack Jackson, Brylcreemed trumpeter and Housewives' Choice disc-spinner, or Brian Rees, star of The Adventures of PC 49 ("surely you remember his catchphrase 'Oh, my Sunday helmet!' "). It feels like aeons ago, not just half a century.
When the pair first tried to break into TV, in 1954, it was a disaster. For the rest of his career Eric carried round the Express review: "Is that a television I see in the corner of my living room? No, it's the box the BBC buried Morecambe and Wise in last night."
A century or two before that, Morecambe might have demanded satisfaction. Although James I banned duelling in 1614, it remained entrenched in aristocratic culture until the 19th century, as Justin Champion found out in the fascinating Pistols at Dawn. Across the Channel they began taking survivors, bleeding, straight to the gallows. In this country, while it was against the law, as long as you stuck to the duelling code, the courts would generally see you right. Steal a sheep and you'd probably hang; kill someone because he insults your mother and you'd almost certainly walk free.
By the 19th century, though, people were fed up with it, and when the Prime Minister, the Duke of Wellington, met a rival in Battersea one morning in 1829, following a row over Catholic emancipation in Ireland, there was open revulsion. "No wonder the multitude break laws," the Morning Herald thundered, "when the law makers themselves, the great, the powerful and the famous, set them at open defiance." As Eric Morecambe used to say, "There's no answer to that!"

Don Cornelius Tribute to Air on VH1
The cable network will rebroadcast "Soul Train: The Hippest Trip in America" this Friday.
VH1 and VH1 Classic are paying tribute to Soul Train creator and founder Don Cornelius, who died Jan. 31 at 75 of an apparent suicide.
The cable networks will re-broadcast the Emmy-nominated program, Soul Train: The Hippest Trip in America, on Friday at 10 p.m.
PHOTOS: Hollywood's Notable Deaths of 2012
Soul Train: The Hippest Trip in America is a 90-minute documentary that celebrates "the show's impact on pop culture, music, dance and fashion." Narrated by Oscar nominee Terrence Howard, features a rare interview with Cornelius during which he reveals details of the early days of Soul Train.
Included in the special are memorable moments and performances from the show, in addition to appearances by Chaka Khan, Patti LaBelle, Smokey Robinson, Snoop Dogg, Aretha Franklin, Sly Stone, Cedric the Entertainer, Nick Cannon, Clive Davis, L.A. Reid, Leon Huff and Kenny Gamble.
Cornelius launched Soul Train in 1970 as a local show in Chicago before taking the show national one year later. The show featured breakout performances from Marvin Gaye, Aretha Franklin and Barry White. Cornelius, who hosted the show until 1993, introduced the Soul Train Awards to extend the brand.
Soul Train wrapped up its run in 2006 after 35 years on air.

NEW DELHI The Supreme Court on Friday ordered Nokia (NOK1V.HE) to give a 35 billion rupee guarantee before it transfers one of its biggest handset plants to Microsoft Corp (MSFT.O).
The ruling upheld a lower court verdict over the plant in Chennai, which is the subject of a tax dispute, and had been challenged by the Finnish company.
Nokia's case is one of several high-profile tax disputes involving foreign companies in India. Vodafone Group (VOD.L), IBM (IBM.N) and Royal Dutch Shell (RDSa.L) are among foreign groups contesting local tax claims.
Nokia, which is selling its mobile phones business to Microsoft in a 5.4 billion euro deal, previously agreed to set aside 22.5 billion rupees in an escrow account while it fights the tax authority's claims in court.
But the Delhi High Court last month said that Nokia should also commit to paying an additional amount for any future tax claims and waive some of its rights to legal defence as a condition for transferring Indian assets to Microsoft.
The Microsoft deal, which will allow Nokia to shift its focus to network equipment, is expected to close by the end of this month and Nokia had been keen for a ruling before then.
Nokia said in a statement that it was disappointed by Friday's ruling and was considering its options.
If the plant is not allowed to be transferred, Nokia can run it as a contractor to Microsoft, but not for long, the Finnish company's lawyers have said in court hearings.
If Nokia chooses to shut down the Chennai plant, it would leave thousands out of work and Microsoft without a key manufacturing site. It could also mean that Nokia ends up with less money from the Microsoft deal.
The Chennai plant is one of Nokia's biggest phone-making factories and the company says it employs 8,000 people.

Frobenius pseudoprime
In number theory, a Frobenius pseudoprime is a pseudoprime that passes a specific probable prime test described by Jon Grantham in a 1998 preprint and published in 2000. [1] [2] It has been studied by other authors for the case of quadratic polynomials. [3] [4]
The test for quadratic polynomials[edit]
A Frobenius test is defined in terms of a monic polynomial. The case of a degree-2 polynomial (a quadratic) is common and can be shown in terms of Lucas sequences, lending itself to fast implementations.
For the polynomial , where is not a square, n a composite number, , and k the Jacobi symbol , n is a Frobenius (P,Q) pseudoprime if and only if
Both conditions hold for all primes, hence this constitutes a probable prime test.
Condition (1) is the same condition that defines a Lucas pseudoprime, hence every Frobenius (P,Q) pseudoprime is also a Lucas (P,Q) pseudoprime, but because of the additional condition (2), the converse is not true.
Frobenius pseudoprimes with respect to the quadratic polynomial can be determined using the Lucas (3,-1) sequence and are:
- 119, 649, 1189, 4187, 12871, 14041, 16109, 23479, 24769, 28421, 31631, 34997, 38503, 41441, 48577, 50545, 56279, 58081, 59081, 61447, 75077, 91187, 95761, 96139, 116821, 127937, 146329, 148943, 150281, 157693, 170039, 180517, 188501, 207761, 208349, 244649, 281017, 311579, 316409, 349441, 350173, 363091, 371399, 397927, 423721, 440833, 459191, 473801, 479119, 493697, ...
The quadratic polynomial , with , has sparse pseudoprimes compared to many other simple quadratics. Using the same process above we get the sequence:
- 13333, 44801, 486157, 1615681, 3125281, 4219129, 9006401, 12589081, 13404751, 15576571, 16719781, ...
Every entry in this sequence is a Fermat pseudoprime to base 5 as well as a Lucas (3,-5) pseudoprime, but the converse is not true: 642001 is both a psp-5 and a Lucas (3,-5) pseudoprime, but is not a Frobenius (3,-5) pseudoprime.
Using parameter selection ideas first laid out in Baillie and Wagstaff 1980 [5] as part of the Baillie-PSW primality test and used by Grantham in his Quadratic Frobenius Test [6] we can create even better quadratic tests, for instance using the parameters (P,2) where P is the first odd that satisfies , which has no pseudoprimes less than .
Relations to other pseudoprimes[edit]
For quadratic polynomials , every Frobenius (P,Q) pseudoprime is also a Lucas (P,Q) pseudoprime. [2] [3] [7] This immediately follows from condition (1) which defined a Lucas (P,Q) pseudoprime. The converse is not true, making the Frobenius pseudoprimes a subset of the Lucas pseudoprimes for a given (P,Q). The condition on indicate it must also be a Dickson pseudoprime of the second kind.[7]
Every Frobenius pseudoprime to is also a Perrin pseudoprime.[2]
Alternate formulations[edit]
An alternate formulation is given by Khashin.[8] Given a number n, not a perfect square, where c is the smallest odd prime with Jacobi symbol , n is a either a prime or Frobenius pseudoprime if:
- .
Note the additional condition of choosing a parameter based on the Jacobi symbol finding a quadratic non-residue. This is similar to the method from Baillie and Wagstaff shown in the examples section.[5] This makes far stronger tests, and is one reason for the success of the Baillie-PSW primality test. Similar to the example, Khashin notes that no pseudoprime has been found for his test. He further shows that any that exist under 260 must have a factor less than 19 or have c > 128.
Strong Frobenius pseudoprimes[edit]
Strong Frobenius pseudoprimes are also defined.[2] Details on implementation for quadratic polynomials can be found in Crandall and Pomerance.[3]
The computational cost of the Frobenius pseudoprime test for quadratic polynomials is roughly three times the cost of a strong pseudoprime test (e.g. a single round of the Miller-Rabin primality test), 1.5 times that of a Lucas pseudoprime test, and slightly more than a Baillie-PSW primality test.
Note that the quadratic Frobenius test is stronger than the Lucas test. For example, 1763 is a Lucas pseudoprime to (P, Q) = (3, -1) since U1764 = 0 (mod 1763) where U is A006190, and it also passes the Jacobi step since = -1, but it fails the Frobenius test to x2 - 3x - 1. This property can be clearly seen when the algorithm is formulated as shown in Crandall and Pomerance Algorithm 3.6.9[3] or as shown by Loebenberger,[4] as the algorithm does a Lucas test followed by an additional check for the Frobenius condition.
While the quadratic Frobenius test does not have formal error bounds beyond that of the Lucas test, it can be used as the basis for methods with much smaller error bounds. Note that these have more steps, additional requirements, and non-negligible additional computation beyond what is described on this page. It is important to note that the error bounds for these methods do not apply to the standard or strong Frobenius tests with fixed values of (P,Q) described on this page.
Based on this idea of pseudoprimes, algorithms with strong worst-case error bounds can be built. The Quadratic Frobenius Test[6] has a bound of . Müller in 2001 proposed the MQFT test with bounds of essentially . [9] Damgård and Frandsen in 2003 proposed the EQFT with a bound of essentially . [10] Seysen in 2005 proposed the SQFT test with a bound of and a SQFT3 test with a bound of . [11]
Given the same computational effort, these offer better worst-case bounds than the commonly used Miller-Rabin primality test.

Bring Me The Head Of This Bastardized Version Of Melrose Place
Did the creators of this Melrose Place remake not take a note from the obvious failure of the "new" 90210? Did they not realize that you can only catch lightning in a bottle once?
Yes, friends, apparently the CW is bringing back the `90s soap in September, and I, for one, am disgusted by this turn of events.
I was so excited about the premiere of the REAL Melrose back in the day that I actually taped the first episode (okay, so I was 15 when it aired, gimme a break). I watched that first hour over and over, convinced that this was what my twenties would be like -- full of love, lust, intrigue, and Andrew Shue. (Wherefore art thou, Billy?) I still remember my father walking into the family room as I viewed the show's antics intently and hearing him say, "What the hell is this crap?"
By the time I made it college, Melrose had become a delightful, campy piece of filthy trash, complete with the infamous scene where Kimberly Shaw (all hail Marcia Cross) ripped off her wig -- awesome! The `90s version of Melrose -- the classic version -- lived and died by its own rules, and its spirit cannot be recaptured!
This bastardized new version stars the sister of Jessica Simpson (She Who Shall Not Be Named), along with a hodgepodge of emaciated, greased-up girls who look more like 18 than 28. The boys appear underfed and have purposely messy hair a la Robert Pattinson. Um, what happened to my strong musclemen of the original show? Or the real girls played by real-looking women like Courtney Thorne-Smith and Daphne Zuniga? Bleh!
Sadly, Thomas Calabro -- Dr. Michael Mancini (the only character from the original to survive the entire first run) -- is back. Guess life post-Melrose has not been good to Calabro, nor to Laura Leighton, who is reprising her role as the manipulative Sydney. Thomas, Laura, I know it's hard being a working actor, but surely you are better than this redux!
Sigh...I guess I've got to admit this is a reality. But if Heather Locklear chooses to join this new cast, I'm going to have to resort to reading books or something.

Her palace shimmered with onyx, garnets, and gold, but was richer still in political and sexual intrigue. Above all else, Cleopatra was a shrewd strategist and an ingenious negotiator.
Though her life spanned fewer than 40 years, it reshaped the contours of the ancient world. She was married twice, each time to a brother. She waged a brutal civil war against the first when both were teenagers. She poisoned the second. Ultimately she dispensed with an ambitious sister as well; incest and assassination were family specialties.
Cleopatra appears to have had sex with only two men. They happen, however, to have been Julius Caesar and Mark Antony, among the most prominent Romans of the day. Both were married to other women. Cleopatra had a child with Caesar and - after his murder - three more with his Antony. Already she was the wealthiest ruler in the Mediterranean; the relationship with Antony confirmed her status as the most influential woman of the age. The two would together attempt to forge a new empire, in an alliance that spelled their ends. Cleopatra has lodged herself in our imaginations ever since.
Famous long before she was notorious, Cleopatra has gone down in history for all the wrong reasons. Shakespeare and Shaw put words in her mouth. Michelangelo, Tiepolo, and Elizabeth Taylor put a face to her name. Along the way, Cleopatra's supple personality and the drama of her circumstances have been lost.
In a masterly return to the classical sources, Stacy Schiff here boldly separates fact from fiction to rescue the magnetic queen whose death ushered in a new world order. Rich in detail, epic in scope, Schiff 's is a luminous, deeply original reconstruction of a dazzling life.
Download the accompanying reference guide.
©2010 Stacy Schiff (P)2010 Hachette Audio
"An epic subject requires a writer of epic skill and scope, and we have a perfect pairing in Cleopatra and Stacy Schiff. Absorbing and illuminating, this new biography will endure." (Jon Meacham, author of American Lion)
"A Pulitzer Prize-winning biographer presents a swift, sympathetic life of one of history's most maligned and legendary women.... Successfully dissipating all the perfume, Schiff finds a remarkably complex woman - brutal and loving, dependent and independent, immensely strong but finally vulnerable." (Kirkus)
"Captivating...Ms. Schiff strips away the accretions of myth that have built up around the Egyptian queen and plucks off the imaginative embroiderings of Shakespeare, Shaw and Elizabeth Taylor. In doing so, she gives us a cinematic portrait of a historical figure far more complex and compelling than any fictional creation, and a wide, panning, panoramic picture of her world." (Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times)
I had high hopes for this, particularly since the reviews were pretty good and there was a lot of hype leading up to its release. Well, I was left very disappointed. The "story" is scattered so it doesn't read like a story. I know it's about Cleopatra's real life so perhaps it's meant to be a little dry by nature, but I still thought it would read like a tale of her life beginning to end - tumultous and exciting. Unfortunately, the author is constantly back and forth on each point between the time period she is actually discussing and the past and future that relate to the point she is discussing (if that makes any sense at all? I don't know how best to explain that, but if that's confusing, just try following along with the audio...). Many times, I thought I was losing it (e.g., Cleopatra's brother was dead, wait he wasn't dead, wait no he is dead, wait he didn't die - yet - she's just saying that he would be dead at some point although she's talking about it as if he is dead...Same issue with her dad and everyone else who passes through Cleopatra's life. Are we in Greece? No of course not, we're in Egypt. Though it really sounds like we're in Greece...). I will say, perhaps it reads better in written format than in audio. I'll give it the benefit of the doubt. There are just so many footnotes that it interrupts any potential fluidity that I have to assume exists in the hardcopy. I didn't bother to finish it although I may at some point.
"Save your credits"
I can't believe I wasted a credit on this book. It reads like a dull history book, yet isn't even based on facts. I would love nothing better than to get my credit back :(
"Fact overload"
If you're a big fan of biographies, perhaps this is the book for you ---- way too many facts and even those seemed it bit embellished. Good material but so much is unknown about Cleopatra's life that the holes and missing details caused the story to lose some life.
I wanted to love this book, and I fully expected to. Given all the glowing reviews, and the subject, it seemed like a slam dunk to me, and I downplayed any uncomplimentary reviews.
Well, an hour and a half into listening, and I reluctantly have to say that it is hugely disappointing. I appreciate the writing and, as a window on the world as it was back then, it has its place. But to center it as the story of Cleopatra is to take a short story and stretch it into a full length biography by padding page after page after page with sidebar comments and allusions.
It is what it is. No problems with that. But it is not what it claims to be. Too bad!
"Very detailed in regards to sources. excellent!!!!"
lots of details. 3 specially about individuals in her lifetime. full background of an icon in our history.
"Most interesting and intriguing historical account"
I love that the author takes from several different texts to compile the biography of one of the most influential, politically savy and wealthiest women of the world. As well as adding her own opinions and analyzing the cultural, political and patriarchal beliefs of the time - pointing out the insecurities of the Romans who detested and scandalized a intellectually superior monarch just because she was a woman.
"A magnificent account of one of the most famous"
I really enjoyed a deep account of one of the most famous people nonetheless women in history. Diligent efforts were taken to get the facts straight and account a tale that many of us did not know the intimate details. An eloquent description and well written!
"Historical Details at Its Best"
I completely binged listened this book. Amazing details! The historical context made you feel like you were there. A gem. I've heard this book was fantastic when it first came out - I should have read it sooner.
"Captivating and Illuminating"
Stacey Schiff presents a thoroughly researched, deeply contemplated and highly educational biography of the life of one of the most powerful, and perhaps most misrepresented, women in history. I really enjoyed this one: cleopatras story is equal parts empowering and fascinating!
Avid reader passionate writer
"Must love history!"
Although this is certainly a wonderful account of Cleopatra's life, you probably have to be an avid history lover to get through it. This book goes into great detail and sometimes makes it a little harder to pay attention. The narration was wonderful, though. I am a great history buff, so I enjoyed it to the end, but I can see where if the reader was looking for an electric story, they might be disappointed. If you love accurate historical events as pertains to the character, you will like this book. Stacy Schiff put a lot of research in this story and Robin Miles did a wonderful narration.

"Oh yea Checkers, how about we tell them about the time you walked into the wrong bathroom?" V said with a evil smirk.
"Hey!" Checkers protested. "How could I tell the difference between a girl griffin stick figure and a guy griffin stick figure?

Dash and the girls, plus Spike, had just trotted past the hordes of waiting fans and handed the ticket master their special tickets. They each received a badge labeled pass with an official looking stamp on it and a rope so they could ware it around their necks. Spike put his on only to have it fall off and land at his feet.
"Oh come on, don't they make anything baby dragon sized?"
"Here, let me help you with that Spike." Twilight said as picked it up with her magic and tied a loop in it making it small enough for him to ware.
Rarity looked down at hers as it hung from her neck. "This is hardly fashionable."

Contractor strikes oil at Indiana State campus
TERRE HAUTE, Ind. - A contractor has struck oil on Indiana State University's campus, although it might be a while before school officials know what sort of money to expect.
Oil drilling began in December on university-owned property near downtown Terre Haute.
Indiana State vice president Diann McKee says the cold winter slowed work but oil pumping has been going intermittently with the warmer weather. She says it could take more than a month of continual pumping to gauge possible production levels.
The Tribune-Star reports that university President Dan Bradley presented Board of Trustees members with commemorative jars filled with the crude oil on Friday.
Bradley says the contractor is pleased with the drilling results and expects it will be profitable. Numerous other oil wells are in operation around Terre Haute.

Four exhibits to focus on
With 1,700 artists, it's hard to narrow down the "must-sees" at the Scotiabank CONTACT Festival. Here are four to consider.
Chris Marker: Memory of a Certain Time.A collection of photos dating from the 1950s to 2010, including everything from Marker's documentation of demonstrations on the streets of Paris in the late 1960s to portraits of the many people, both famous and anonymous, whom he met during his frequent travels around the world. TIFF Bell Lightbox, April 26 to June 9
Light My Fire: Some Propositions about Portraits and Photography. A celebration of the Art Gallery of Ontario's photo collection (that includes work of Richard Avedon, Yousuf Karsh and Christopher Wahl) how it came into being and how it has evolved since 1977. Presented as five propositions in two parts, the exhibition will feature more than 200 photos from the collection, many shown for the first time. AGO, May 2 to Oct. 20.
Arthur S. Goss: Works and Days. During his long tenure as Toronto's official photographer (1911-1940), Goss created thousands of images that illustrate the Victorian city's reinvention as a modern Canadian metropolis. He's long been known for his eloquent pictures of slums, destitute immigrants and other dark elements, but this exhibition aims to reveal a less widely heralded aspect of Goss's work: the routine production of visual documents for various city departments and agencies. Ryerson Image Centre, May 1 to June 2
Andrew Wright: Penumbra. The artist's explorations of form, light and photographic phenomena come together to reveal an unexpected perspective on land, sea and sky alike. This mid-career survey of works from 2001-13 underscores Wright's interest in perception and the technologies of photography. Through an approach that is often experimental, even playful at times, Wright invites us to reconsider the ways we relate to and visualize the world around us. University of Toronto Art Centre, May 2 to June 29.

Barrow biomass plant plans 'shaped' by meeting
- 26 August 2012
- From the section Cumbria
Proposals for a new biomass power station in Barrow will be discussed at a council meeting.
More than 13,000 people have signed a petition against Centrica Energy's plan to build the plant on its existing site at Roosecote.
The secretary of state for energy and climate change will decide whether to approve the application.
But Cumbria County Council says any recommendations its officers make will help shape the final plans.
Centrica wants to demolish its existing gas-fired plant and build a larger facility which could burn waste and wood chip brought in through Barrow docks from the UK and abroad.
Emission concerns
The company said the power plant would be carbon neutral and could create long-term jobs.
Plans have been opposed by campaigners concerned about wood-burning emissions and the visual impact of the larger plant.
The meeting of the county council's Barrow Local Committee will be held on 6 September and will be open to the public.
The county council said the committee's views would "help shape" Cumbria County Council's response to the major infrastructure planning unit, which is considering the application.

Search for Earhart wreckage
A $2.2 million expedition is hoping to finally solve one of America's most enduring mysteries: What exactly happened to famed aviator Amelia Earhart when she went missing over the South Pacific 75 years ago?
A group of scientists, historians and salvagers think they have a good idea, and they began a trek Tuesday from Honolulu to a remote island in the Pacific nation of Kiribati in hopes of finding wreckage of Earhart's Lockheed Electra plane in nearby waters.
Their working theory is that Earhart and her navigator Fred Noonan landed on a reef near the Kiribati atoll of Nikumaroro, then survived a short time.
"Everything has pointed to the airplane having gone over the edge of that reef in a particular spot, and the wreckage ought to be right down there," said Ric Gillespie, the founder and executive director of The International Group for Historic Aircraft Recovery, the group leading the search....
Previous visits to the island have recovered artifacts that could have belonged to Earhart and Noonan, and experts say an October 1937 photo of the shoreline of the island could include a blurry image of the strut and wheel of a Lockheed Electra landing gear....

Exceptional sensitivity and lubricated with a Silky smooth lubricant. The extra sensitive line is Durex's Thinnest Latex Condom.
The best service
Bottom Line: I would recommend to a friend.
Was this helpful? 19 20
As with any condom, sensitivity is reduced. Sadly, these aren't much of an exception. For us, the difference isn't noteworthy. My one complaint is that they are more difficult to unroll. They actually get stuck, which cuts down on the easy-on convenience of condoms.
Was this helpful? 22 20
OH MY GOSH. I never knew a condom could be like this. When my boyfriend put this on it was AWESOME. This condom is TRANSPARENT and SHINY and clings to every part of his penis like a SECOND SKIN. He looked like oh so beautiful with this on that I almost climaxed before he entered me. What a difference from the Trojans he used to use. This is DEFINITELY a to die for product.

I have always been a Trojan gal, but after trying these - they have become my favorite. These condoms allows more of a natural feeling and there was hardly a latex smell!
