Spanish fly?
i've heard of this stuff since my childhood, any one ever try it? What does it do and does it work?
It's of late like eagerness it makes you quality romantic .I'm sure u know what i mean.Honestly i wouldn't use anything that messes beside nature or that can hurt u.Spanish fly be used as a date rape drug as well as ethnic group would use it for getting romantic and to get the inkling of wanting to get romantic.I wouldn't touch any of that stuff if i where on earth u.U never know what people use to cause that stuff n it could give u a counterattack n kill u.
If anything, "spanish fly" works on men, not women:
If cantharidin is ingested by human males, as it is excreted by the kidneys it irritates the urinary tract cause spectacular swelling, called priapism, but this is pretty painful and does not result contained by arousal.
Yeah....we have viagra in our time. Anyhoo, that does nothing for women (except receive them call the cops on you for the intense headache you put them in by poisoning them).
There is with the sole purpose one real aphrodesiac that I am aware of (well, besides alcohol) and i.e. Kacip Fatima. Although you make this into a tea, I don't know if you could nickname it a true aphrodesiac. A woman probably couldn't drink this and become immediately aroused. Instead, she take it on a regular basis and it dramatically increases her libido (WARNING....it also dramatically increases her FERTILITY....lol, daddy).
You can acquire the real stuff here:
I only just went to this after hours store beside my wife,And we just happen to pick up some things;included was this so-called worlds greatest Spanish Fly.To me it did nought but waste my money and application.I think I rewarded $8.00 US Dollars.And it did nothing but offer me a sweet tooth due to sweet coffee taste.Maybe I get ripped off,I importantly doubt this is the same stuff my parents spoke around.
It is a toxic irritant composed of the ground parts of a specific beetle and has never really posessed the aphrodisiac properties once attrributed to it. Those misinterpreted properties be secondary to the irritant characteristics of it's metabolites and the reality that it causes intense genitourinary symtoms. Everything you never looked-for to know regarding the pertinent reference follow:
Spanish fly - Lytta vesicatoria
FAMILY - Meloidae
TAXONOMY - Meloe vesicatoria Linné, 1758. Type locality not specified.
OTHER COMMON NAMES - None known.
PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS - Reaches 0.5–0.9 surrounded by (12–22 mm); slender, soft-bodied metallic golden-green beetle.
DISTRIBUTION - Throughout southern Europe and eastward to Central Asia and Siberia.
HABITAT - Scrublands and woods.
BEHAVIOR - When disturbed, meloids release the blistering agent cantharidin from their leg joints.
FEEDING ECOLOGY AND DIET - Adults nurture on leaves of ash, lilac, amur privet, and white willow trees; larvae are parasitic on the brood of ground nesting bees.
REPRODUCTIVE BIOLOGY - Develop by hypermetamorphosis, a type of complete metamorphosis within which first larval instar (the triungulin) is very involved, while remaining instars are more sedentary and grublike. Eggs are laid near the entrance of host bee's nest; triungulins crawl into nest on their own.
CONSERVATION STATUS - Not threatened.
SIGNIFICANCE TO HUMANS - Bodies are occupied with the toxin cantharidin; elytra be once pulverized and marketed as an aphrodisiac as resourcefully as a cure for various ailments.

[Article by: Belinda Rowland]
Spanish fly is reputedly an aphrodisiac that produces uncontrollable sexual urges surrounded by women. The same effect that ground Rhino horn was thought to produce. Unfortunately, here is no such pill and it has be hyped for decades and decades. When I was a young person back within the 1950's, boys would travel to the Texas/Mexico border towns to hunt for this infamous drug. They found pills, but nothing ever happen (other than the fact that they get ripped-off).
Use your sexual prowess to drive the women wild and please never resort to a pill. There are too tons strange concoctions (advertised to excite) that could seriously hurt someone and damage your trade.

In a way, the NHL lockout is being partially funded by Comcast, the Flyers' parent company.
The NBC Sports Group, a subsidiary of Comcast, is paying the league about $180 million in rights fees this season, and a network spokesman said on Monday that the NHL will receive all of that money even if no games are played in 2012-13.
There is an asterisk, however. If no games are played this season, the league will grant NBC a "free year at the back end of the agreement," said the NBC spokesman, who asked to remain anonymous.

Abbott cements his lead as ALP slumps to 36 per cent of primary vote, Galaxy shows
- From: The Sunday Telegraph
- August 17, 2013
SUPPORT for Kevin Rudd's Labor government has slipped for a second week in a row, with the ALP primary vote plunging to just 36 per cent, according to an exclusive Galaxy poll.
The result is below Julia Gillard's vote at the last election and comes as the Coalition's primary vote remains unchanged from last week on 45 per cent.
On a two-party preferred basis, an election held today would deliver a Coalition government with 52 per cent.
But parents don't like Mr Abbott's plan to axe Labor's $820 Schoolkids Bonus. According to the poll, Mr Abbott's plan to cut the payment is opposed by 47 per cent of voters.
Opposition is highest among parents, with 50 per cent of mothers and fathers disagreeing. Only 38 per cent backed Mr Abbott's vow to cut the welfare payments.
"Voters prefer the paid parental leave scheme proposed by the Coalition over Labor's policy, but there is significant opposition to the Coalition's plan to axe the Schoolkids Bonus,'' Galaxy pollster David Briggs said.
Yesterday Mr Rudd promised he would "fight" to get back in the election race but conceded his back was against the wall.
"I've been in a few tight spots before and I've managed to fight a way forward," he said. "I intend to fight my way forward."
PRIMARY VOTE (per cent)

Thnx to Howard years we are now a nation of handout grabbers! Families need to take responsibility for their costs, and what about today's parental leave announcement by TA? It isn't about smart politicians and plans for Australia's benefit anymore, just look at the parties and their leaders, this is scraping the bottom of the barrel! How did we get to this? Donkey vote probably the best alternative??

A Westwego man who claimed he was the victim of an armed robbery was later arrested after he admitted the whole story was a lie, according to a Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office arrest report. Deric Gaudet, 27, was also booked on drug-related charges.
Gaudet arrived at West Jefferson Hospital, 1101 Medical Center Blvd., Marrero, on Wednesday night suffering from several gashes he said he received during an armed robbery, the arrest report said. Gaudet told the responding deputy that he was held up at gunpoint just before 7 p.m. at a service station in the 9000 block of West Bank Expressway in Bridge City.
Gaudet claimed he parked his vehicle near the fuel pumps and was robbed in front of the store, the arrest report said. Robbery Detective Jason Rivarde checked the store's surveillance camera, but found no evidence that a robbery had occurred.
When he confronted Gaudet, the alleged victim confessed to concocting the robbery story, according to the report. Gaudet admitted he was actually attacked while trying to buy drugs. He lied because he didn't want to get in trouble with his girlfriend, the arrest report said.
Rivarde arrested Gaudet. A search turned up marijuana in Gaudet's right sock and prescription drugs in his left, the police report said.
Gaudet, of 103 Willow Court, Westwego, was booked Thursday at the Jefferson Parish Correctional Center in Gretna with false swearing against public health and safety, possession of marijuana, drug possession and possession or distribution of drugs without a prescription. He was still being held there Friday.
Bond was set at $14,100 for the charges related to the faked armed robbery and some outstanding traffic attachments. But Gaudet was being held without bond for two counts of being a fugitive from another jurisdiction. No information about those charges was available.

This paperbound volume is the second in a series of bimonthly symposia devoted to the management of major categories of disease. In the first half of this particular issue, Dr. Muschenheim and 13 other authors review the therapy of various pulmonary disorders; Dr. Capps and seven others summarize the management of selected hepatic diseases in the second half.
—Since each contributor is a recognized authority in his field (and has probably written similar reviews elsewhere), the individual chapters are authoritative and scarcely controversial. "Chronic Bronchitis and Emphysema" by DesPrez and Muschenheim is especially thorough and detailed, and "Hepatic Coma Syndromes" by Summerskill is uniquely lucid and complete. In general, speculation is minimal, errors are few, and style is factual.
—This publication, in both principle and practice, is wrong. First, there is no need for such repetitious and unoriginal therapeutic collections; standard medical textbooks, current journals, and annual reviews

An East Riding councillor is disappointed that a decision to grant protected status to the Wolds countryside around Driffield has been delayed.
Driffield and rural ward Councillor Symon Fraser, the East Riding of Yorkshire Council's portfolio holder for environment, housing and planning, said that Natural England – the Government's advisor on the natural environment – are dragging their heels on making a decision after the council expressed an interest in 2013 for part of the Yorkshire Wolds to be designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). His comments follow an initial response from the body which suggested the first stage of work to prioritise bids received for AONB status is taking longer than anticipated.
Coun Fraser believes this also suggests that the whole process of considering new designations for AONBs looks likely to receive lower priority than had been previously indicated, with Natural England instead concentrating on changes to boundaries of existing AONBs.
The council will now have to await the completion of further work by Natural England before any further progress is made.
Coun Fraser said last year that pressure had grown for the Wolds to receive AONB status following a number of wind farm proposals, while calls were strengthened after the record success of David Hockney's Royal Academy exhibition – which showcased the beauty of the landscape.
It was also hoped that it could provide a shot in the arm for the region's tourist industry.
AONBs are designated to conserve and enhance the natural beauty of the landscape to ensure its survival for future generations; to meet the need for quiet enjoyment of the countryside; and to have regard for the interests of those who live and work there.
At the same time, it is recognised that the countryside is not a museum and must continue to support a distinct and traditional rural way of life.
Symon Fraser said: "It's disappointing that Natural England seems to be taking a very long time to even consider making a decision, and even more worrying that they would appear to be back-tracking on their previous invitation to apply for this status to be granted.
"If the AONB designation is to progress, it is vital that we get a positive and encouraging message from central government – a negative decision or a rejected bid is very regrettable in terms of what we were hoping to achieve for the stunning Wolds landscape"

Top-notcher Hurricane Fly unlikely to fluff his lines
RACING:Hurricane Fly may need to regain his Cheltenham crown in March to cement his place at the very top table in Irish hurdling history, but a hat-trick of BHP Insurance Irish Champion Hurdle victories at Leopardstown tomorrow will confirm his statistical credentials against the very best.
Success for Hurricane Fly in the €110,000 highlight, which has turned into something of a Willie Mullins versus JP McManus show, with only plucky Oliver Brady opting to take on the champion trainer and owner, will be a remarkable 14th Grade One win for the horse.
That will match the peerless Istabraq, winner of this race four times in a row between 1998 and 2001, and widely regarded as being the benchmark among Irish hurdlers in modern times, along with the 1970's star Monksfield.
Willie Mullins himself considers Hurricane Fly a once in a lifetime horse, no mean tribute considering the levels of talent in his yard through the years, and a tribute possibly endorsed by his view that the horse beaten just once in his last 11 starts is back to his best.
That one blemish came at the worst time when only third in his Cheltenham title defence last year but Mullins has been much happier with Hurricane Fly this campaign which has already seen him win twice. "I don't think there was anything troubling him last season. He just didn't come back as strong. He probably didn't do as well during the summer and we never got to put the condition and strength into him that we needed," said Mullins yesterday.
"This year he's come back much stronger and he has taken his training well and doing everything right, so fingers crossed we can keep him right for Sunday. He's a much more settled horse all round this year," he added.
First start
Hurricane Fly's stable companion Thousand Stars, himself a dual-French Champion Hurdle winner, also starts tomorrow against a pair of JP McManus-owned stars headed by the 2010 Champion Hurdle winner Binocular.
This will be a first start of the season for Nicky Henderson's enigmatic nine-year-old who will bid to be the first cross-channel winner since Collier Bay in 1996, and who will also provide a valuable 'sighter' for Darlan, currently Hurricane Fly's competition at the top of the Cheltenham betting.
"He had a good break and was a little bit late going back to Nicky's. That's why he hasn't appeared," said McManus's racing manager Frank Berry. "It's a lovely race to run him in with a small field."
The McManus team has won the Irish Champion Hurdle six times in all, a statistic in itself that means the first major Grade One prize of 2013 can hardly be billed as a total solo-show for Hurricane Fly. But even for all that, and how even Istabraq managed to fall at Leopardstown in his time, defeat for Hurricane Fly would be a major shock. In their pomp, the real top-notchers don't tend to fluff their lines.
Pont Alexandre ready to excite again
Pont Alexandre can again provide that 'loving feeling' at Leopardstown tomorrow on what could turn out to be another bumper afternoon for the Ruby Walsh-Willie Mullins team.
Only the long odds-on Hurricane Fly could possibly elbow Pont Alexandre from being Mullins's prime focus when he has just his second start in Ireland in the Grade Two Synergy Solutions Novice Hurdle.
Ireland's first taste of the French bred saw him land the Grade One Navan Hurdle in December as the champion trainer broke the habits of a lifetime in pitching his hugely expensive new recruit straight into top-flight company.
If all the pre-race talk was about Don Cossack, all the important post-race analysis centred on a horse Mullins admitted to "falling in love with at first sight", urging owner Rich Ricci to pay a massive price for him. His judgement looked spot-on at Navan and Pont Alexandre is already as low as 5 to 1 second favourite for the Neptune at Cheltenham.
Boston Bob completed the Navan-Leopardstown double last season and the new boy on the Closutton block is expected to do the same.
Walsh gave up the ride on Zuzka at Christmas to allow Patrick Mullins break the amateur record but he is firmly back in the plate tomorrow in the Listed mares hurdle and will also hope to score on Urano who has Some Article to beat in the opener. The Real Article can get Barry Geraghty among the winners.
