Who turned up the heat ? Wade's Weekly 16 #9
(June 27, 2016) The Parts for Trucks Pro Stock Tour is the big attraction this weekend in the Geary Woods. Cassius Clark and Dylan Blenkhorn have each won two of the first four tour races, but several other drivers hope to pick up their first win of the season when they visit Speedway 660. In this edition of "The Weekly", we'll preview the Cummins 100 and also look at a rivalry in our street stock division.
PST Race Five @ 660
The Parts for Trucks Pro Stock Tour is always one of our biggest events of the season. This weekend the tour drivers will make their annual visit to Speedway 660 and fans are in for a great race when the Cummins 100 goes green. We'll preview the tour race, but first let's look at a spirited rivalry that is catching the eyes of fans in the Geary Woods.The tour always attracts a large crowd, from all over the Maritimes. Fans know the Cummins 100 will be one of the best races of the season and what better way to kick off the summer season than to spend a night at 660.
The DMR Auto Sales Street Stock Division is always tough, sometimes rough and occasionally borderline outta control. Going into last week's races Rob Raynes, the defending champion, sat atop the point standings, but he was not alone. Courtney O'Blenis was tied with Raynes and Destiny Enkel was third. Rob has finished on the podium every race so far this season and every race last year. But Courtney has three feature wins and Destiny has one. So the girls have been ruling the street stock roost, so-to-speak.Rob Raynes won the first street stock feature of the season, but hasn't been back to victory lane in a feature since then. But he's finished second on four straight occasions behind Courtney O'Blenis three times and Destiny Enkel once.
Early in the season it became clear that there was going to be a big battle for the 2016 street stock crown. The tension has been building since the start of the season and it actually boiled over in last week's second street stock heat. There was some contact, retaliation and aggressive racing.
Here are four observations. One: Rob Raynes will not take any prisoners, meaning he is not going to cut anyone any slack! Two: Courtney O'Blenis and Destiny Enkel will not be intimidated by anyone! Three: there is a real possibility that 2016 could be the year that we see our very first lady champion at Speedway 660. Four: this championship chase is going to go right down to the wire and is going to be well worth the price of admission, every time the street stocks are on the schedule.That's Courtney in the 48, Destiny in the 52 and Rob in the 41. When push comes to shove, the two young ladies will not be intimidated and will give as well as receive, if you get my drift.
All three of these drivers desperately want the 2016 DMR Auto Sales Street Stock championship and none have given or will give an inch! Last Saturday night was amazing. It is fast becoming an old school rivalry, the kind we haven't seen since Rick Cashol used to get after it with anyone who tried to challenge him for a street stock title. Occasionally Rick came out with the short end of the stick, but not often. He's got five street stock championships! No one else has more than two. Oh BTW Rick is sitting fourth in points, so don't count him out just yet.
After being unceremoniously bounced around in her heat race, Courtney rallied and won her third feature of the year last Saturday night. I know we are all going to Speedway 660 to see the Parts for Trucks Pro Stock Tour this Saturday night, but just in case you don't already know it, the street stocks are also on the card!After attempting a pass on the outside and almost being forced into the beach, Courtney O'Blenis dove to the inside to go for the lead. She ended up being driven down into the infield in that heat race, but got the last laugh by winning the feature for the third time this year.
OK let's talk tour. Four of twelve races have been completed. Cassius Clark and Dylan Blenkhorn have alternated wins. Cassius won both races at Scotia (May 21st and June 18th), while Dylan won at Riverside and Petty (June 11th and June 25th). Heading into this weekend, Clark has a 12 point lead over Blenkhorn. Defending champ Donald Chisholm is third in points while Craig Slaunwhite sits fourth. (Editors Note: come back to www.speedway660.com for a Conversation with Craig Slaunwhite later this week)
One year ago, Cole Butcher won the Cummins 100 at Speedway 660. There were only three short cautions during the entire race. Blenkhorn was second, while Darren MacKinnon drove home third. The top New Brunswicker was Steve Halpin who finished seventh. Cole Butcher won the Cummins 100 at Speedway 660 one year ago. Cole is currently fifth in points on the tour and is not only looking for his first win of 2016, but also an opportunity to move up in the championship point standings.
After our race, the tour takes a week off to allow drivers to get ready for the first of three big Pro Stock 250 races. They'll head to Riverside for the IWK 250 on July 16th, before going to Halifax for the Cat 250 in mid August and several of the tour drivers will be back here for the SpeedWeekend 250 in early September.
But round five of the Parts for Trucks Pro Stock Tour is on everyone's mind right now and it is on this weekend at 660. And BTW, the Fredericton Gun Shop Sharp Shooters are racing and the DMR Auto Sales Street Stocks will also be fired up this weekend. So it's going to a race date not to miss for a variety of reasons!
We'll see you at the races!

Brick by brick: Craftsmen compete for regional masonry title
Scott G Winterton, Deseret News
SALT LAKE CITY — If you've ever watched the '90s TV show "Home Improvement," you might recall how Tim "The Toolman" Taylor (played by Tim Allen) and sidekick Al Borland (Richard Karn) lauded the joys of building things with their bare hands or using power tools — often with hilarious results as Allen's lead character typically courted disaster before his knowledgeable protégé saved the day.
Taylor appreciated the work of master craftsmen, people who practice a trade with great skill and dexterity — especially in the manual arts. Those skills were on full display Friday as nine teams of expert masons competed for the title of top bricklayer in the Utah region.
Eighteen men participated in the annual SPEC MIX Bricklayer 500 Regional at Quikrete, 550 W. 3300 South.
Among them were 40-year masonry craftsman Kim Pierce and defending regional champ Scott Tuttle. While both men represented themselves well at this year's competition, Tuttle's brother Brian came away with this year's regional crown.
The competition was part of a series of 16 qualifying events taking place across North America, pitting the area's best masons showcasing their skill, speed and stamina for the chance to qualify to win a new Ford pickup truck and nearly $100,000 in cash and prizes at the world finals in Las Vegas in January.
In each competition, two-man teams consisting of a mason and a mason tender are given 60 minutes to complete a 26-foot, 8-inch, double-width brick wall while meeting strict quality standards enforced by a panel of industry expert judges. The winners of each regional competition advance to the national event.
Awards are based on the highest brick counts meeting the quality standards and competition rules. The second most coveted prize at both national and regional events is the top craftsman award — judged as the most sellable wall meeting a qualifying brick count.
Living in Utah, if you've ever watched someone build the exterior of a house or a church, you might have watched bricklayers at work displaying skill that was once among the most popular in America.
On average, a good mason will lay about 500 bricks in a typical day's work. For this competition, the contestants built walls consisting of 500 to 700 bricks in just one hour.
"I laid 720-plus bricks," Pierce said. "My target was 800."
Today, masonry is still a unique combination of artistry and intense labor that Pierce calls enjoyable.
"I like doing (something) that I can make a living at that is fun," he said. "This is fun. If it gets any deeper than that, then you're losing perspective."
But masonry is not nearly as popular as it once was, and there is a real shortage of younger people entering trade skill training nationwide, event officials said.
Scott Tuttle said becoming a master craftsman requires lots of hard work and dedication but can reap long-term rewards for those willing to learn the still much-needed skill.
"It's a pretty good trade to get into," Scott Tuttle said. "There is plenty of work out there."
Event spokesman Tyler Clark said many of the skills are critical to building and maintaining the country's infrastructure. This event can provide education on masonry, which is one of the oldest skilled trade professions in the world, he said.
"It's an honorable profession," Clark said. "(The competitors) take a lot of pride in their craftsmanship."
He noted that masons have helped construct some of the most high-profile projects in Utah, including City Creek Center in downtown Salt Lake City, the new Nu Skin headquarters in Provo and numerous buildings on the BYU and University of Utah campuses.
"If you look around, a lot of the masonry in the valley and in this state have been done by these guys here," Clark said.

I am always on the lookout for new fun patterns that are simple and easy to make. This pattern is from Salme and it is called the Buttonless Shirt, Pattern #149. This is a great sleeveless shirt with a super cute collar.
After printing the template and taping it together. I realized that the bust dart and the hem were too low for my petite frame. The center opening needed to be stitched up a little higher when piecing the two front panels together.
After making those adjustments and adding the seam allowance, I had the correct size and set to work. I adore the collar, as you can see in the picture above, you do need to use interfacing to help create a sturdy collar. I love that there are no buttons, zippers or even elastic to deal with. All you need is fabric and thread. Sometimes that is all I want to deal with. You can make this a shirt or dress with a belt. I love that I can use my favorite cottons to create this cute shirt/ dress pattern. You could use other fabrics but cotton is my favorite.

Last Updated: Tuesday, October 9, 2012 - 16:54

The 35-year-old will start shooting for his first project with Rana, after he`s done filming his Tamil romantic-drama 'Irandam Ulagam' with Arya and Anushka Shetty.
Meanwhile, Rana is busy with his Telugu socio-action 'Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum'.

We will be taking a first trip to Ireland starting April 30 in Dublin. I'm really comfortable planning this part because we enjoy cities, history, cathedrals. On Saturday May 5, we fly from Dublin to Kerry arriving at 8:30 a.m. We've reserved a rental car which we'll drop off at Shannon airport early on May 9 (much agony over this because of left side driving and some dyslexia). Anyway, I'm the planner and feeling some mental paralysis because I don't care one whit about long scenic drives and I'm tone deaf, which leaves me at a disadvantage in planning the itinerary. DH does like beautiful scenery and music and I want this to be a good trip. Looks to me like we should exit Kerry airport and do the Ring of Kerry, winding up in Kenmare at the Lansdowne Arms Hotel for a couple of nights. Check out Muckross House and Abbey, and Dingle Peninsula? Then drive to Old Ground Hotel in Ennis for two nights, spending one day at Bunratty including the medieval night. Fly out early the fifth day from Shannon for home. We both are energetic and healthy and like full days, and I feel I'm doing an inadequate job. What I need is someone to just tell me what to do in this part of Ireland and in what order and I'll obey. Thank you in advance. I am always impressed by the depth of knowledge of this group and their willingness to help out.

You'll need a detailed map for driving in Ireland. The Michelin fold-out Ireland map #712 is detailed enough (1:400,000). For even more detail buy the Ireland South Ordnance Survey map (1:250:000). If you prefer a spiral-bound map that you can lay flat, then buy the fairy hefty Michelin Great Britain & Ireland Road Atlas (1:300,000). Whichever one you choose, buy it now and use it to help with your planning. All of these maps are available at http://tinyurl.com/yx9lxh.
Use www.aaroadwatch.ie or www.viamichelin.com to plan routes and get estimated driving times. Driving in Ireland is slow. Increase the viamichelin.com estimates by 50%.
After you pick up your car at the Kerry airport, I recommend that you drive to Dingle. If the weather is clear, drive over Conor Pass. You may not get another chance. Tour Slea Head and as much of the rest of the Dingle Peninsula as time allows. Sit in on a traditional music session at one or two pubs and spend the night in Dingle.
Drive to Killarney. Visit Muckross House and anything else that interests you in the national park. Drive to Kenmare (scenic views enroute) and spend the night there.
Now comes the hard part. Do you spend two nights in Kenmare so you have plenty of time to (1) drive the Ring of Kerry or (2) drive the Beara Peninsula (including Healy Pass if the weather is clear)? Or do you skip both of them in favor of driving to Ennis and spending two nights there as planned?
Ennis is a nice town and several pubs host traditional music sessions. Cruise's has nightly sessions and good pub grub. Two nights in Ennis allows to to spend one evening in Bunratty at the medieval banquet and the other in an Ennis pub or two. One night in Ennis still allows you to take in the medieval banquet in Bunratty and gives you the ROK or Beara option too.
It's your call.
Report Abuse
If you are going to do the Medieval Banquet and plan to imbibe, I would stay somewhere in the Bunratty area.

There is an excellent alternative to the hefty Great Britain & Ireland Road Atlas mentioned by TimS. It is Ordnance Survey's The Complete Road Atlas of Ireland. Scale 1:210 000. It covers the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland only.

We just returned this week from Ireland. We drove Dingle and Beara using Killarney as a base for two nights. Kenmare would have worked just as well and I see you have lodging picked out there already.
Dingle Penninsula was by far our favorite. The Beara Penninsula is, as promised, much more rugged. The coastal road (different from the road shown on maps) along the top side of Beara is quite rugged and will take some time to drive. In both cases we opted for the coastal routes and skipped both the Connor Pass and Healy Pass.
In retrospect, we'd have skipped Bunratty. The castle itself is quite small and we weren't terribly interested in the Folk Park. Unless it is your only chance to see a castle, I wouldn't make it a priority. We were glad to not have reservations for lodging or the banquet--we felt we'd have wasted the better part of a day after seeing the castle and park, just waiting for the eveing activities.
Report Abuse
Thanks, IrishEyes, for mentioning the Ordnance Survey Road Atlas. For some reason, although the source for maps that I gave carries all the regional Ordnance Survey maps, it doesn't carry the atlas so I didn't know there was one.
Report Abuse
TimS, I use that road atlas all the time and it is excellent. You can pick it up on arrival in Ireland at the tourist office at the airport. I have seen it for purchase online.
Another map I use a lot is called HandyMap and is a small laminated accordian style map that is great in the car when not a lot of detail is needed.

Football Manager Handheld 2014 hits iOS and Android, as developer reveals result of piracy honeytrapPocket-lint
Sega and Sports Interactive have released Football Manager Handheld 2014 for iPhone, iPad and Android devices - a simultaneous release that offers some key new features and plenty of improvements over former iterations.
Priced at £6.99 for all devices, the game is available for download now on iTunes and Google Play. It features a new look and more intuitive menus, plus a cloud save option that allows you to pick up where you left off on another device - but only on iOS as it uses Apple's iCloud.
Another new feature is My Club Mode, which allows you to create your own football team from scratch, including name, team colours and squad. You can then play as that team in any league or international competition.
Other improvements include a more realistic transfer system and better media interaction.
Sports Interactive studio head Miles Jacobson also presented a talk at the London Games Convention earlier today, 14 November, where he revealed that the PC version of Football Manager 2013 contained secret code that was intended to collect data about pirate versions of the game.
READ: Football Manager 2014 review
It took a remarkable six months before a hacker was able to crack the game and subsequently distribute it on torrent sites and peer-to-peer networks. But unbeknown to them the illegal version of the game contained an intended flaw that "called home", given Sports Interactive access to the IP address of every person that downloaded it.
The development team then used that raw data to collate a definitive picture of illegal downloading and how it affected sales of FM 2013.
In the last year, there have been 1,184,652 legal activations of Football Manager 2013. The cracked illegal version "called home" from over 10 million unique IP addresses. China was the territory from which most of those were registered, with 3,186,277 illegal downloads, with Turkey, Portugal, Italy and South Korea making up the rest of the top five.
Further investigation into those IP addresses suggested that of the 10 million, 18 per cent went on to play the game five times or more.
In the period after the game was cracked, legitimate activations (sales) fell by 17 per cent. Using all the data it has to hand, Sports Interactive calculates that 1.74 per cent of illegal downloaders would have purchased the game if no cracked version was available.
"We believe that Football Manager 2013 enjoyed an uplift of 144,000 units prior to the crack and lost a potential 32,000 extra sales post-crack," says SI Games.
"Therefore, the difference between the game never being cracked and being cracked on day one can be calculated as 176,000 in unit sales or, in financial terms, a potential variance of $3.7 million (£2.3 million) in net revenue."
That's a lot for a small development team and/or publisher to lose. Maybe those responsible will think twice before attempting to crack the PC, Mac and Linux versions of this year's game, Football Manager 2014.

Megan Fox Quits Twitter After Only One Week
It seems that Twitter is too much for Megan Fox to handle. The husband of Brian Austin Green leaves the social network just one week after joining. "5 days on Twitter and I have yet to discern it's purpose. #WhatIsThePoint ???" she tweeted on January 9, before announcing on Facebook Thursday, January 11 that she quit.
"Some of you may, or may not have noticed by now that my Twitter account has been shut down...," she explained. "I thought that 2013 might be the year that I finally blossomed into a social networking butterfly... but as it turns out I still hate it. Love you guys but I will just never be that girl. Facebook is as much as I can handle. #I'm Sorry."
The new mom created account on the networking site after "RIP Megan Fox" became a trending topic worldwide. "Against my better judgment, I have finally joined Twitter," she said back then, before following it up with her first tweet that read, "I'm incredibly late to the party but I'm here nonetheless, so what now?"
She already had more than 250,000 followers when she called it quits.

Ion Bank, a community bank serving customers in Connecticut, is increasing its use of interactive video technology from NCR Corporation (NYSE: NCR), the global leader in consumer transaction technologies.
Since the bank introduced the technology in its Wallingford location in 2012, Ion Bank customers have responded positively to use of the technology that lets them perform a full range of teller transactions with a live teller via video. In response, Ion Bank has added four additional NCR Interactive Teller units to two branches in Waterbury and Oxford.
With NCR Interactive Teller, a live teller takes remote control of the device while engaging the customer over two-way video, providing a personalized experience. The solution provides live teller services for clients who want the human touch, and also offers more services than can be conducted on an ATM or other self-service devices. For instance, customers can perform secure transactions without using a traditional ATM card and, like branch tellers, remote tellers can provide cash beyond ATM limits, assist in mortgage payments, transfers, and more.
Ion Bank's interactive tellers work out of the New Haven Road location in Naugatuck and can support customers at any of the bank's six Interactive Teller units. Video collaboration and transaction processing can both reduce operating costs by centralizing tellers across multiple branches, while still connecting customers and tellers in a face to face, highly personal engagement. This expansion of NCR Interactive Teller has also freed branch staff to focus on the service needs of customers visiting the branch.
"Our customers have responded enthusiastically to this technology," said Dawn D. Orsini, Vice President of Retail Banking, Ion Bank. "This is a great opportunity to give our customers the added convenience of longer banking hours. Our interactive Tellers enable us to leverage the latest technology with the traditional banking experience. It was a natural step to expand our use of this technology to additional locations throughout our service area."
Through Interactive Teller, Ion Bank is able to extend teller service hours even after the branch is closed, now offering teller availability from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Friday and 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, an additional 27 hours of banking services per week.
"NCR Interactive Teller is changing the way consumers bank and helping our customers meet the needs of the consumer," said Jed Taylor, vice president and general manager, NCR Interactive Services. "Through assisted-service technology such as Interactive Teller, consumers are banking at times convenient to them while maintaining a personal touch with their bank."
Assisted service allows consumers to receive all the benefits of self-service convenience and accessibility with the added benefit of personal staff interaction. Of the more than 100 financial institutions that have implemented assisted-service strategies globally, 98 percent chose NCR.1
About Ion Bank
Ion Bank, a wholly owned subsidiary of Ion Financial, MHC, has been serving customers throughout Connecticut's Greater Naugatuck Valley and central Connecticut since 1870. Locally owned, the bank is committed to helping customers as well as the community at large. Ion Bank offers personal banking, business banking and financial services at its 17 branch locations. For more information, visit ionbank.com or call 203.729.4442. You can "Like Us" on Facebook at facebook.com/ionbank and "Follow Us" on Twitter at twitter.com/ion_bank.

In addition to all the benefits, IoT is also bringing new kind of customer experience challenges - cars that unlock themselves, thermostats turning houses into saunas and baby video monitors broadcasting over the internet. This list can only increase because while IoT services should be intuitive and simple to use, the delivery ecosystem is a myriad of potential problems as IoT explodes complexity. So finding a performance issue is like finding the proverbial needle in the haystack.

Something unusual is stirring beneath Taranaki.
A series of seismic events some 600 kilometres below the province is attracting international attention and fascinating scientists.
Professor Tim Stern said the remarkable, "super-deep" earthquakes strike every 15 to 20 years and Taranaki was due for another.
Stern said that far from being an immediate threat to life and property, the quakes posed an intriguing question replicated in a few places around the world.
"These pop off every 15 to 20 years and the last one was in 1995. They are about a magnitude four or five, so you will probably feel them but they are certainly not going to cause you any problem."
He said the quakes are believed to be caused by a chunk of the Earth's crust releasing seismic energy as it "free falls" through the viscous mantle.
"There is a lot of international attention on this problem, and it's a Taranaki one."
Stern, along with Dr Rupert Sutherland, was in New Plymouth on Thursday to discuss New Zealand's seismic history and its impact on the economy and geology.
Sutherland urged the 200-strong crowd to think about how the country should use its natural physical resources.
He said much of New Zealand's exclusive economic zone was once part of the same land mass as Australia and could contain similar mineral wealth.
"We just don't know the answer yet because it is just so poorly explored," he said.
"The question is then, do we want to do anything with it, do we want to encourage this type of behaviour and use our natural resources.
"We have choices. We can either completely ignore it, forget about it and be a passive observer on the global economy, or fritter it away or use it wisely."

Becoming a sex educator didn't prepare me for the challenges of married sex, but here's what I learned along the way.
Around the same time I graduated with a Ph.D. and started to pursue a career as a part-time academic and part-time sex educator, I got married.
I'd heard about how marriage can change a relationship, and I was confident that with my budding sex ed knowledge set and tool kit, I could handle it. After all, I was going to major sex education conferences like Woodhull and AASECT, networking with the stars of our field, voraciously reading books, taking workshops (like the SAR, or Sexual Attitude Reassessment), writing for sites like MySexProfessor and Kinkly, and stuffing as much sexuality knowledge into my head as I could. What could go wrong with this plan?Plenty, as it turns out. I was so focused on acquiring sex facts and tips that I forgot to take into account my own needs, and the needs of my partner, in our marriage. I forgot about how much of a toll major life transitions – and concurrent ones at that – could take on a person's sex life. Plus, I wasn't really prepared for how much intertwining my life with another person's would change how we interacted, which in turn impacted my ideas and expectations around sex. The good news is that we put in the work, and I was able to use my sex ed skills to level up my married sex. Here's how I did it.
Start With Self-knowledge and Communication.
The ancient Greek oracle Pythia reputedly had the words "Know thyself" inscribed at the entrance to her shrine at Delphi. This is nowhere truer than with married sex.
You need to take responsibility for knowing your sexual preferences. Your spouse cannot know what goes on inside your head, heart or genitals. It's on you to know what facilitates or impedes your arousal, and then to use your words to tell your partner these things.
Some things it might be useful to know about yourself include:
- Is there a time of day or night when you feel most aroused or desirous of sex? How can you synchronize your schedules to spend time together then?
- Do you know if you tend to have responsive or spontaneous arousal, in the words of Dr. Emily Nagoski? Knowing how you respond to sexual stimuli can help you coordinate your arousal patterns with your partner's.
- What do you fantasize about? Which fantasies can you share with your partner, either verbally or in the form of role play?
- What do you need in terms of environment to feel comfortable having sex? Some people like to have sex in every room of a house once they start living together, while others prefer the comfort of a bed. Is having toys, lube and safer sex supplies within reach important to you? Or is part of the fun the sense of immediacy, which can work with a scramble to get your hands on the basics?
Schedule Sex Dates. Yes, Really.
Scheduling sex sounds like such a drag, and many people assume it'll just kill the mood. But it's really about being realistic. Married adults tend to get really busy really fast. Sometimes, if you don't make time for sex, it'll slide lower on the priority list until it's rarely happening.
Give Yourself Permission to Play Sensually Without Committing to Sex.
At the same time, if every time you engage with your partner you're thinking that it has to result in sex or else it's a meaningless encounter, that's also a potential mood-killer. Feeling pressured to have sex, even when no one's intending to apply pressure, can be off-putting to many folks. One way to get around this is to engage in sessions that focus on sensual touch alone. Can you set a timer to make out for just five minutes, promising not to escalate at all? You might be surprised at how sexy that feels!
Learn Your Partner's Love Language and Use It. Advocate the Same in Return.
If you're not familiar with the concept of love languages, the brief version is that most people are geared to be more receptive toward affection expressed in one of five ways: giving gifts, physical touch, words of affirmation/praise, quality time, and acts of service. While you can read Gary Chapman's books that introduce these concepts, be aware that they're a bit heterosexist and mono-centric, as I note in my review of the first book.
The truth is that learning to speak someone else's love language can feel weird, arbitrary and fake at first. Poly writer Ferrett describes this awkwardness, and counsels everyone – regardless of their relationship style – to suck it up and learn to speak your partner's love language anyway. It'll pay off later.
However, the flip side is that you have to gently, constantly remind your partner to keep taking those baby steps to speak to you in your love language. You have to remember when they've failed yet again to do the one thing you've asked them to try to do, that it's probably not malicious. It simply didn't occur to them because it's not how their brain works.
Find Ways to Break the Touch Barrier.
The term "touch barrier" has been used by dating coaches and pick-up artists alike (in ways that are sometimes creepy and consent-obscuring), but I believe that in the context of a married or long-term co-habitating couple, it takes on a special connotation. Probably you two have already been physically intimate in some fashion, whatever that looks like in your relationship, so it's not a matter of touching someone for the very first time.
Instead, my sense is that in a marriage, spouses can get so used to practical touching moments (handing off a baby, folding laundry together) that it becomes difficult to initiate sensual or sexual touching moments. It's important to challenge the experiences that pile up that reinforce the sense that you're domestic partners first and foremost, because as Esther Perel has brilliantly noted in her TED talk, security and arousal are often at opposite poles of human experience.
So, what are some ways that you can (consensually, of course) initiate touch with your spouse outside of daily tasks? My spouse, whose main love language is physical touch while mine is most definitely not, suggested playing a game where we competed to see who would remember to lovingly touch the other person first as soon as we both entered the same room. Who won? We both did – it helped put affectionate touch on my radar more often, and he got his touch needs met more frequently.
Even if you're intelligent and good at relationship communication, and even if you've got a background in gender/sexuality studies like I do, married sex can pose unique challenges. Take advantage of resources like Adult Sex Ed Month here at Kinkly to stay engaged in learning about not only concrete sex topics but also what sex means to you!

A Politically Incorrect Guide To What 'Good Sex' Means For Women
By Anonymous
In the interest of honesty, I'm going to be discussing these issues from the perspective of a straight woman, because I am one. I hope that there will be a non-straight woman out there to follow this article up with thoughts about what pleases them, but I just can't speak for them. So let's do this.
It often feels like women are expected to give some extremely technical answer when it comes to what we like — that we have a body that's more like a piece of software, and it's all about entering the right code and getting the right result. But the truth is, as different as we all are, the answer is very general. Like anyone else, women like to have orgasms. Women like to feel wanted and cared for and paid attention to. On a more technical level, women like a man who knows how to use his hands, tongue, and penis (often in combinations) to the point of orgasm.
But women don't always need to have an orgasm. While there are a lot of women who can achieve orgasm, and do it multiple times in one sexual encounter, that doesn't mean that every woman needs to have one to enjoy sex. There are a lot of girls who feel the pressure to "perform" in relationships because the guy will get weird and down on himself if she doesn't come screaming. There are many times that I personally have not reached orgasm during sex, but still totally enjoyed the experience. I know that I'm not exceptional in that regard, and it doesn't mean that the guy isn't talented.
Now, I know that this shouldn't be politically incorrect, but somehow it's become a taboo thing to say because we're all supposed to be "liberated" women who can engage in just as much casual sex as a guy, and don't need to attach strings to them emotionally to make them worth it. This is bullshit. I can only go off the girls I know and the sex I've had, but I have found in my experience that 90 percent of the time, women need some kind of emotional connection with the guy in order to really enjoy sex. It's not that the act of sex doesn't feel good, it's a combination of a) not knowing someone well enough to feel comfortable explaining what you actually need to get off and b) wanting more out of a sexual encounter than just "put the penis in the vagina, say thank you, leave, perhaps send a muffin basket." There is a lot of media directed at women that emphasizes the idea that we should and even COULD embrace being "sluts" or have sex "like a guy," but most girls I know can't relate to this. For a lot of us, a real connection is synonymous with a decent sexual experience.
But even when you are with someone you know, trust, and are very attracted to, that doesn't mean that the orgasms are just going to start flying fast and loose. First of all, men need to get over their fear of toys. There are some girls who will always need a vibrator during sex if they want to orgasm, and there's nothing "wrong" with them. There are other women who enjoy using one from time to time because it makes for a face-melting, unlike-anything-else-you've-experienced-in-your-life orgasm when combined with the right guy and the right moves, and they should not feel weird about it. There are women who like using any range of toys that involve the butt, and they are no less wife-able. Guys have this weird paranoia that any toy that comes into the bedroom is going to question their masculinity or "replace" him, but this is absurd. The toy is not in place of him, it's not a supplement because he inherently isn't good enough. It has nothing to do with him, and we should let go of the idea that everything regarding a woman's sexuality does. You have to embrace whatever things enhance sex for you, otherwise you'll always end up frustrated and not enjoying yourself.
Another thing that has become strangely incorrect to say, even though we all know it's true, is that a lot of women really like rough sex. It doesn't mean that they are having rape fantasies every time they close their eyes, but the "no means no" talk definitely doesn't always apply in the confines of a lot of relationships. We've become absolutist about what it means to have consenting or even "feminist" sex (ugh), but a lot of women I know could not be more turned off by the idea of a guy asking politely before doing everything. Obviously this is something that a couple has to establish beforehand, but you are naive if you say that people don't give off body signals that say more than their words do in the bedroom. A lot of women have said "no" to their boyfriends but leaned into him slightly because they want to be "taken," and that doesn't mean he did anything wrong. For many people, politics in the bedroom just aren't sexy. It's not how their sexual encounters function on a regular basis. If you're really that worried about it, get a safe word like an adult.
But the biggest problem generally stems from the fact that guys think they know about women, but most of the time, they really don't. It's no secret that porn has ruined men's vision of what women enjoy during sex, but the problem is that, when they finally get around to having sex, girls are often really bad about telling them what they need to do. (We are betraying each other when we don't educate men, let's not do this anymore.) I have been with men who had all the swagger of a true casanova, because they were packing an above-average unit and were pretty good looking — and they were TERRIBLE. They thought that their looks and their dick were enough to get them an A+ in the sex department, as long as they just went really hard and slapped your ass every once in a while. In my experience, uncircumcised dudes have been better off the bat because they are more naturally sensitive and relate to the sometimes-unpleasant intensity that a clit can experience. They know that harder does not always equal better, and that soft, rhythmic motions can often be the key to a mind-blowing orgasm. But there are cut dudes who get it, too. They've just been taught right.
The best thing you can teach a guy, if you only impart one piece of advice before passing him off, is that if something is working — DON'T STOP IT. There is nothing worse than guys who get the perfect stroke going and then suddenly change paces or decide to start doing something crazy in an effort to show off. You can craft the perfect man in bed, and will have the kind of sex that makes monogamy seem like something to look forward to and not something that will bore you to tears, but it takes work.
If we can remember these things, and learn to laugh at ourselves (weird things will happen during sex, and there's nothing worse than feeling like you can't just roll with the punches), we can have some good sex. But first we really need to know what 'good sex' means for women, and it's something that takes a while to learn. But don't worry, I believe in you!

Sexual assault is any sexual contact without consent
Name: Lola
Gender: Female
Age: 37
Location: Tennessee
I have been married for 13 years. We have had a pretty healthy, fulfilling sex life. My husband does not like to admit to his insecurities but i think he has some insecurity about his penis size and lately, his problem with not lasting very long. He has developed an obsession with stretching my vagina and pulling my labia. He knows I don't like it. The other night, he introduces a dildo he has secretly purchased. I have enjoyed dildos, even larger ones, in the past, but this one was ridiculously too big. It was over 12″ long and the circumference was as big as a baseball bat. I told him that it was hurting and that it was impossible. He forced it in me. I was crying in pain and he tells me later that he hasn't been that aroused in years. I am hurt. It hurt me physically, I bled a little, but it hurts more emotionally. What do you think is wrong with him? He has never hit me or been abusive with me, in the past.
Jeez darlin', that's fucked up…big time.
Here's the thing about men who have sexual insecurities. They can and often do project their perceived inadequacies outside of themselves and then act out. And almost always this projection and acting out is aggressive and abusive.
I suppose you know that what we're talkin' about here, Lola is sexual assault, right? I mean let's not mince words. Your husband assaulted you. It was premeditated and worst of all he took pleasure in it. This is extremely disturbing, because, despite his non-aggressive past, he has just upped the ante exponentially. You know what they say about domesticated animals that inexplicably develop an aggressive steak. Once they get a taste for blood there's no trusting them ever again.
I think your old man has severe anger issues. Issues that if left untreated will…not maybe, but absolutely will…escalate into more aggressive and abusive behavior. Your guy needs help. He needs to know that he stands on a precipice. That he is making a cognitive and affective connection between violence and pleasure and this is very dangerous for all involved, especially you, Lola.
You don't mention that he had any remorse about this assault. This too is disturbing. Because you can't precisely pinpoint the cause of his acting out, you'll never really know when you're safe and when you're not. I encourage you not to treat this lightly. Confront him about this. Make it clear to him that he has violated the bond of trust between the two of you. He may try and shift the blame for this incident to you. But remember, you're not at fault. Insist that he seek professional help immediately. Anything short of him doing that will nullify your relationship.
No waffling on this, Lola! You do not want him to get the message that this incident can be winked at or overlooked. Your wellbeing hangs in the balance.
All unwanted, forced, manipulated, or coerced sexual contact or activity is sexual assault. Sexual assault is not about sex, eroticism or desire; it is about power, control and abuse.
Good Luck
