What is Mathematics?
Mathematics has a rich and varied history stretching back many millennia. In ancient Babylon and Egypt, people developed practical mathematical skills for solving problems related to surveying and accountancy. Great mathematicians such as Archimedes, Eudoxus, Euclid and Apollonius in ancient Greece and its colonies developed mathematics as a deductive science founded on logic, delving deeply into the basic principles of geometry and the theory of numbers. Mathematicians of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries developed the basic principles of calculus that are fundamental to the applications of mathematics in areas of science and engineering. Mathematicians of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries developed the subject in a myriad of directions, discovering and classifying algebraic structures that, though initially considered part of pure mathematics with no obvious practical application, found surprising applications in areas such as cryptography, the automatic correction of errors in data transmission and computer graphics.
Much of contemporary mathematics is concerned with the theory and applications of infinite-dimensional spaces, and novel mathematical methods were developed to develop basic understanding and solve practical problems arising in the physical and biological sciences, engineering, management science, economics and finance. In recent decades deep and surprising connections were made between modern theoretical physics and theories developed by pure mathematicians over many decades concerning geometrical and topological properties of curved spaces in many dimensions that, at the time they were developed, were not perceived as having particular relevance to physics.
Is this the right course for you?
Mathematics is an excellent choice for anyone hoping to meet the demand for mathematics graduates in the job market, which values numeracy, ability in abstract reasoning and the skill to turn ideas into methods.
If you have a natural ability in mathematics and are genuinely interested in applying mathematical solutions to problem solving, then this course will suit you well. It is also a great start for a career in actuarial work, finance or accounting, although these will require further training. The course has been successful over a long period in providing diverse career opportunities for many students.
Why study Mathematics at Trinity?
Trinity is justly proud of its long tradition of excellence in mathematics. Research interest in the School of Mathematics is enormously varied; ranging from the abstract ideas of differential geometry and analysis to practical ideas of numerical analysis, modelling and computer algorithms; the nature of fundamental particles and general relativity; non-linear systems and fluid mechanics. This departmental diversity is reflected in the specialist degree-level courses available to students. With an academic staff that brings expertise and experience from many parts of the world, the course aims to be world class, while also catering for those with talents in different mathematical areas.
What will you study?
These programmes are designed to provide you with a broad mathematical training that will, in turn, allow you to work in any environment that requires strong numerical and logical skills.
The modules offered can be grouped into four areas:
- Pure mathematics which explores basic concepts and abstract theories
- Applied and computational mathematics to solve practical problems
- The mathematics of theoretical physics
- Statistical models and methodology
All students take common modules in their first year developing skills and understanding in Calculus and Linear algebra. Single honour students also take introductory modules in group theory, mechanics statistics and computing in the first year. In the second year much of the programme consists of compulsory modules in the areas of real and complex analysis, algebra, topology, and mathematical methods together with a choice of optional modules in areas such as probability, statistics and mechanics. In the third and fourth years of the programme, you will be able to specialise in the areas that appeal most to you.
Further details are to be found on the School of Mathematics website at the following location: www.maths.tcd.ie/undergraduate
Study abroad
You may choose to spend the third year at a European university as part of the Erasmus exchange programme. In particular, there are agreements in place that allow study at the University of Durham (UK) and Université Lille 1 (France). Also, in recent years some students have spent the third year at universities in the United States of America and in Australia under exchange programmes.
A degree in mathematics opens up the possibility of a career in a variety of industries and sectors. Graduates have found employment in computing, where mathematics skills have immediate and practical application. The financial services and internet security sectors are also common first destinations for graduates. Other options include statistics, teaching, accountancy, actuarial work, finance, and all areas of pure and applied mathematics. Many of these involve further study or intensive research.

Graduate Profile
Aoibheann Brady
The maths degree at Trinity allowed me to explore a wide range of topics, and the research programmes for undergraduates guided my decision to pursue a PhD at the University of Bath. I also worked in finance during summers and after graduating, the possibilities open to me have been incredibly broad.
The course had great social aspects: I have made friends for life through the Mathematical Society and was a founding member of the "Ireland for CERN" campaign – an experience not available elsewhere.
The standard of courses, the opportunities, and the level of support and engagement of academic staff make choosing the degree a fantastic decision.

This past weekend, I was excited to be able to take a couple students to check Liberty University out (which is where Christi and I went to school). It was a blast and we all had a really good time.
If you've finished college, left the city, and come back to visit, you've felt the feeling of overwhelming nostalgia that I felt.
I was describing it to a friend: "Everything is so different!"
He asked me to specify, but it was hard to describe everything. After thinking about it some more, I realized that my thoughts were centered around this one idea:
If I went to school here today, I would have a completely different experience, by virtue of the fact that this school is continually expanding into an even greater atmosphere.
And then, this next thought hit me like a ton of bricks:
This must be what it's like to have a strong vision for something and not live long enough to see it grow beyond your wildest dreams.
All throughout Scripture, we see examples of people who were called by God to do amazing things. Every one of those people were playing their small part in God's meta narrative.
1. Abraham was called to go to the place that God would show Him.
2. Joseph was called to a life of obedience among negative circumstances, resulting in major influence.
3. Moses was called to lead the nation of Israel out of slavery and into the promised land.
4. Joshua was called to build on Moses' work.
5. David was called to be a king.
6. Nehemiah was called to build a wall.
7. John the Baptist was called to prepare the way for the coming Messiah.
8. Peter was called to help move God's people to a new way.
9. Paul was called to spread the Gospel throughout the nations and to plant churches.
All of these people played big parts in God's story. In their day, they were recognized for their many feats and displays of faith.
But for them (and for us), our "small" part in God's big story is 100% of our entire life!
The connection point is this: Jerry Falwell never got to see the fullness of God's vision for His life come to pass (because it is still coming to pass as each day passes!).
This should give us so much encouragement, in that our work is not done in vain! God will bring His work to pass. We are merely agents of His grace; wires through which His power flows.
We may not get to see the full outcome of our work here on earth, but that isn't the purpose! Our purpose is to humbly serve Jesus.
Take comfort that your work is not in vain, if it is done in Jesus' Name.

Here is my very honest review. I have used up the whole tube, it does nothing at all. Seriously, it doesn't even moisturise, but at least it sinks in and doesn't leave any film on the skin as many serums do. Paula Begoun says plant stem cells don't do any miracle to human skin and here I believe her :) I wouldn't recommend it simple because it just doesn't do anything at all. But I understand that everyone's skin is different and it might brighten, lighten or do at least something for you.

MP3: A.Dd+ - "Genocide"
Courtesy Audible Treats.
Having moved beyond their recent LP, When Pigs Fly, and still putting the finishing touches on their new EP, a project that will include production from Black Milk, S1, Picnictyme, and others, Dallas duo A.Dd+ continues to release a string of new, quality tracks they're now packaging and releasing them as a collection of free, non-album singles packaged as "Loosies." The latest in this line of new freebies for the fans is "Genocide," easily one of the most aggressive tracks that duo Slim Gravy and Paris Pershun have released to date.
"We're drawing a line between the music we make and the BS that Dallas is mostly known for," say A.Dd+, citing their inspiration for the track. "We represent a new wave of artists here, with more diversity and substance – and we're proud of that." And as bold as the statement is from the two rappers, the beat is with them step-for-step, a raucous affair full of grinding synths and lively vocal chops, that was produced by Brain Gang Blue and co-produced by Picnictyme. "King Blue just gave me a beat and he said, 'Make sure that you rock it'/ 'Bout a year ago, big bro gave us a key to the city, said, 'Here, ni**a, lock this bitch," raps Slim Gravy, "Mold with the old/ Grow with the new/ Ni**a die, pick a side/ Any two, gonna lose/ Gotta pick one!"Download "Genocide" here: http://media.audibletreats.com/A.Dd-Genocide.mp3 and http://addplus.bandcamp.com/track/genocide-2 .

5 Important Things to Consider when Hiring a Divorce Lawyer
If you are facing the prospect of divorce and looking for a family solicitor in Manchester things are probably difficult enough – without having to worry about finding the right divorce lawyer. Your lawyer needs to be someone you can have complete trust in, knowing that they have your best interest in mind at all times. Below are 5 things to consider when looking for the right divorce lawyer who can help you through this challenging time.
1) Are they a Specialist?
If a solicitor practices divorce law alongside other types of legal work they may not have the same level of expertise at one who only practices family law. You should immigration solicitor in Manchester check the areas of law any prospective solicitor deals in and opt for a family law specialist.
2) Are they Experienced?
An experienced family law solicitor will be able to provide you with vital advice and guidance during the course of your divorce. Divorce is often an highly emotive issue which can cause you to make decisions that you may come to regret. A solicitor with experience will be able to guide you through the ups and downs of the process, offering intelligent advice while advising you on strategy.
3) Do they have ability both in and out of Court?
In many cases divorce is settled before formal Court proceedings begin, but some cases will end in front of a Judge. It is important to look for a solicitor who is both a good negotiator outside of Court but who also has a strong voice in Court. If the solicitor representing you only has one of these skills it could cost you in the long run.
4) Can you meet in person?
You should arrange an appointment to meet with any prospective lawyer before you take them on to represent you. Most divorce lawyers will charge a fee for the initial consultation but this in repaid ten-fold as it gives you the opportunity to see whether you are happy to instruct them or not.
5) Are they a member of Resolution?
Resolution (http://www.resolution.org.uk) is a code of practice for lawyers which ask them to; act in a constructive and non-confrontational way, to avoid the use of inflammatory language, retain professional objectivity and respect for all involved in the case. If a divorce lawyer hasn't committed to Resolutions Code of Practice, you should

Abortion opponents seek info on clinicAugust 24,2013Abortion foes
seek info on clinic
BURLINGTON Six Vermont women want Planned Parenthood of Northern New England to provide information about people working at a Burlington clinic as well as the number of abortions performed at the facility and other information.
The lawyer for the women says he needs the information to establish that Planned Parenthood is indeed a reproductive health care facility, even though no one is disputing that claim.
The request for information is part of a lawsuit filed against the city of Burlington over whether an ordinance can prohibit abortion opponents from protesting less than 35 feet from clinics. They claim the ordinance is being enforced more at Planned Parenthood than other facilities.
Planned Parenthood attorney Claudine Safar said the information request was a fishing expedition.MORE IN Vermont NewsIf this hasnt been the worst year ever for truth in politics, I cant think of what was.

Sir James George Frazer O.M. was a classicist and social anthropologist whose theories concerning cultural and religious evolution were widely disseminated through the literature of the twentieth century. Partly as a result of his own stylistic and narrative gifts, he impressed powerful—though often mistaken—ideas about sacrifice, magic and ritual on several generations of writers, scholars and artists. Sigmund Freud, T.S. Eliot, D.H. Lawrence, W.B. Yeats and the Nigerian poet Christopher Okigbo were among the authors to be affected by him in different ways, and to varying degrees of intensity.

Investec helped by America, Africa and Asia gains
Investec Asset Management, whose chief executive last month said that developing markets offered the "real challenge" for firms after he took the top prize at the Financial News awards, saw a 1.3% rise in assets under management, helped by gains in Africa and Asia Pacific, in the half year to September.
The asset manager's AuM rose to £62.4bn for the period following net inflows of £1.5bn. This helped operating profits increase by 2.5% on the same period last year to £67.2m.
The fund manager benefited from inflows from North America, Africa and Asia Pacific, however inflows fell sharply in Europe and the Middle East from £1.43bn to £44m. Investec said the outturn was in line with trends across the region.
The results come after Hendrik du Toit, the chief executive of Investec Asset Management, was recognised in October at the Financial News Awards for Excellence in Institutional Asset Management, Europe, as chief executive of the year.
At the awards, he cited the emerging markets as a target. He told Financial News after the awards: "There is a world outside Europe and the US. The real challenge is to put the money that's in the developed markets to work in the developing markets. If we can get that right, there is a lot of money to be made."
Global bond inflows were £1bn in the first half, taking the total to £19.8bn. Multi-asset mandates went up £539m to £15.6bn. Equities and commodities went backwards, however, through outflows of £78m, which lowered their total to £27bn.
Investec Asset Management now contributes 29.3% of operating profits generated by its owner, Investec. Its cost-income ratio is an above-average 65%, marginally higher than a year ago. Investec's contribution to bank profits is one of the highest in the asset management industry, just behind Natixis (see below).
Investec's group operational profits rose 2.6% to £229m in the half year. Pre-tax profits were £200m against £214m last time.
Stephen Koseff, chief executive said Investec Asset Management would continue to expand through organic growth, as it has done under du Toit over the years.
Koseff also expected Investec's wealth management division to grow organically, following its recent acquisition of UK-based private client broker Williams de Broe. In the half year, its operating profit grew 4.9% to £22.9m.
Specialist banking saw an increase in operating profits of 2.3% to £139m. The company is lending selectively in sectors like property, the high net worth community, airlines and private equity.
Bernard Kantor, managing director, said: "We need to be particularly careful with property where we are typically keeping our loan to value ratio down to between 50% to 75%. Impairment charges were 36.5% lower than in the first half of last year.
Kossef does not envisage making acquisitions in banking either. He said a current initiative involved Investec using its South African base to extend banking services in countries like Ghana, Kenya, Zambia and Mozambique, linking services with the rest of the world.
• French investment bank and fund manager Natixis reported third quarter revenue of €1.36bn, with its asset management unit accounting for 30% of the total. While the firm's revenue was down 14% from a year earlier, net revenue within Natixis' asset management business rose 20% to €411m in the third quarter of the year, compared to the third quarter of 2011. Asset management was the strongest revenue contributor within the investment solutions division, which also includes insurance, private banking and private equity. Investment solutions as a whole reported net revenues of €479m, a 16% year-on-year increase.
Fund management in the United States was key driver of revenue during the quarter. It is expected to contribute further to Natixis' fixed income and municipal bond capabilities in the coming months when its acquisition of fixed income fund manager McDonnell Investment Management is complete. Natixis announced the deal to buy McDonnell in October.
Assets under management rose to €570bn at the end of September, up from €560bn at the end of June. The asset management unit reported net inflows of €1.9bn that came predominantly from the firm's US affiliates such as Loomis & Sayles.

The Citadels internal investigation into the handling of a complaint about child molester Louis Skip ReVille has been delayed up to three months.
Special Counsel Joe McCulloch said the schools Board of Visitors had hired two firms to conduct the investigation. But one of those firms had become too expensive. The board has replaced it with another firm, but the switch has delayed the investigation, which originally was to be completed by the end of the year.
The board has replaced the firm Manuel, Daniels, Burke International LLC with Margolis, Healy & Associates, McCulloch said. Consultant Anne Franke, of Wise Results LLC, will continue as the second firm, he said.
He expects the investigation to be done by the end of March.
McCulloch is a Columbia attorney who the board hired in August to work as a liaison between the board and the firms conducting the investigation.

Read an Excerpt
Chapter One:
Lesbian, the Label
Labels are for filing. Labels are for clothing. Labels are not for people. Martina Navratilova
You dress to the nines and enjoy an occasional manicure and pedicure. Wear flannels and tapered jeans everyday? No way. Sure, you find women hot. . . but doesn't everybody?
You don't look gay. You don't own any power tools. Guys check you out. Nobody would ever guess you've fantasized about your friends. . . or even fallen in love with them. Sure, you've had feelings for guys. Yet, you wonder what it would feel like to kiss a woman.
We've been there.
For years, we stood by our gold Prada stilettos, Citizen blue jeans, little black dresses, and pink Polo shirts. . . in the closet. We'll be the first to tell you, there's a hell of a lot more room in your closet once you come out of it. Being gay comes from within. It's not the stereotypical cropped haircut that makes someone gay. Just because we enjoy a weekly blowout and rocking little miniskirts doesn't mean we crave men. Our Prince Charming is, rather, a Cinderella.
In our pre-introspective teen years, we would have cringed if you told us we were gay. Us, gay? Hardly. Lesbians? No way, no how. Something about that label made it sound like we'd contracted some horrible disease. Sure, at the tender age of fifteen, we fell in love with our camp counselors. . . but, what girl hasn't fallen for her camp counselor? Women flirt with women. Girls develop girl crushes. It's only natural.
Yet, as we grew older, these lezzie crushes were more intense, and more frequent. Neither of us ever had super-serious boyfriends, but we have had sex with men. We've slept with men and women for the same reasons: because of desire, because we wanted to try it. And don't get us wrong, we enjoyed sex with men. But not like we do with women. Take it from lesbian comedian Lea Delaria: "It's not that I don't like penises, I just don't like them on men!"
Society leads us to believe that all women fall into one of three boxes: straight, bisexual, or gay. Yet, no one talks about the fact that many of the girls who say they fall into the straight box have chowed box. Just look at Marissa's bi-curious experimentation on The O.C. Or turn on MTV and watch any season of The Real World. Girls who experiment with their sexuality are all over the place, it's natural and it's normal. Girls kissing girls is no longer taboo. It's hot.
Research has shown, time and again, that women's sexuality is remarkably fluid. And there is a gray area, where many women choose to live and love. You may not look as "dykey" as, say, Chastity Bono or k.d. lang, but that doesn't mean you love women any less than they do. Some of your friends may have never been with men, some have never fantasized about women, and plenty are probably right in between.
Nowadays, people are even coming out of the closet as "asexual." Oftentimes, they first associate as gay, or at least people think they are gay for their lack of getting any. Soon enough, however, asexuals throw their hands up and admit that they are happy alone and don't crave physical intimacy with either men or women.
Despite our general aversion to labels, when push comes to shove, labels can actually be a good thing. It's nice to be able to identify and socialize with others whose desires are similar to your own. If labels didn't exist, there would be no "gay pride." In the end, labels are just a matter of preference. Our friend Sloane prefers to be called "queer." She feels the word queer implies that there is some discrepancy in her desires. She's not straight, but she's not gay, either. She's just a little "off," and thus identifies as queer.
Entering a gay bar can make you feel as though you need a dictionary to weed through all the diverse labels. You'll hear terms like "boi," "lug," or "dink" tossed around carelessly. When we were both rookies on the lesbo scene, we had no idea what any of these words meant. So here's a quick primer:
A boi is a girl who looks like a boy. She may even look so much like a boy, you'd mistake this boi for an actual boy. . . and that is exactly her intention.
Lugs, on the other hand, are a rare breed found mostly in small women's colleges in the Northeast. These girls are "Lesbians Until Graduation," who take advantage of the spirit of experimentation and self-discovery that four years of higher education affords.
Dinks are a breed of homosexuals who are "Dual Income, No Kids." Dinks can be men or women and are usually rather wealthy. With no kids to support, they have money to spend on things like real estate and, say, Marc Jacobs.
Whichever way you chose to live your life, be sure that your happiness is the first priority. The rest will just fall into place.
Lauren Blitzer
I am a proud femme lesbian and a JAP-WASP mixed breed. Like most girls, I dress in a way that makes me feel comfortable and attractive. In my case, I just so happen to dress like a lot of the straight girls I work with.
Shopping has always been one of my favorite hobbies. When I receive my paycheck, I have to try hard not spend it all on shoes. I fit in with the rest of the young NYC man-hungry women on the prowl, except that while those women search for a rich Jewish husband, I search for a nice Jewish wife.
At first glance, I am not what I appear to be. The discrepancy became more apparent than ever my first day on the job at a fashionable women's magazine. The moment I set foot in the Condé Nast cafeteria, I heard the shuffle of Manolo Blahniks and Jimmy Choos. As foreign as the cafeteria was, at least I was familiar with the clickety-clack of expensive heels. Come on, now, I grew up on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. I know my shoes.
I felt nervous in the enormous cafeteria. In fact, nervous is an understatement. I was petrified. I looked like all of the women I had seen walking in and out of the Condé Nast building, but there was something different about me. I felt intimidated, scared, and painfully gay.
The buzz of "Omigod" and "You look sooo cute" filled the perfume-laced air. Blondes of all shades and brunettes alike swarmed the fresh fruit display, home to healthy low-fat yogurt and granola. My eyes widened and wandered as I got lost in this sea of Theory pants and YSL shirts. Each woman, more beautiful than the next, walked by me. They shot dirty looks at other women who either weren't dressed to par or looked better than them. The cafeteria literally reeked of criticism, jealousy, and the latest designer fragrances.
I walked through the cafeteria in a daze, as eye candy raced by me. Damn, these women were beautiful. But, as gorgeous as these fashionistas were, not one really appealed to me. What was lacking in most cases was depth. I don't like petty women. As my thoughts turned romantic, I alerted myself that, hello, these women are all straight! There were the obvious straight girls who sported gigantic engagement rings, and then there were the girls I assumed were straight because of how they dressed. These girls literally woke up at four a.m. just to straighten their hair more perfectly than Frederic Fekkai could do himself.
However, as I stared at a particular blond bombshell, I realized I was making the same assumptions that I don't like people to make about me. Maybe not every woman who works for Condé Nast is straight. I sure as hell am not, even though I look it.
The majority of the women at work never even thought to question my sexuality. Boys like me, so therefore I like boys. They figure everyone is straight unless they don't look straight. Thankfully, I can offer these people some enlightenment. I hope women can look at me and see that it's okay to like women and be in touch with your sexuality. It's okay to take care of yourself and want to look fabulous. Sexuality dictates whom you love, not how you look.
When I went to college, I was straight. Well, as straight as any eighteen-year-old, open-minded, sexually charged female could be. I attended the University of Vermont, and my freshman year was miserable. I smoked too much pot and involved myself with way too many lame eighteen-year-old boys who didn't appreciate who I was. They wanted more than I was willing to give and, in general, were one big snooze fest. Before my first spring break, I began looking for a new place to call my own.
Growing up, I'd kissed girls. Mostly for the pleasure of sixteen-year-old boys, who got hard at the mere sight of two legs and a skirt. I was the go-to girl for girls who'd never kissed girls. There was a night in my parents' basement when three cliques of girls were hanging out. A couple of the girls had never kissed another girl before. I was nominated to initiate them in to the girl-kissing world, and I was fine with that. I loved kissing, for God's sake! And other than passing thoughts, I'd only had one sex dream, about a girl I hardly spoke to in high school. But, it was a really hot dream. To this day, thinking about it makes me blush. I had no inkling that I'd ever date or fall in love with a woman. I dated baseball and football players!
Anyway, I left Vermont for a small women's college in northern California. This school was the answer to my prayers. Mills was a liberal haven, with a small campus and no boys to annoy me, for at least another three years. I was free! I started playing basketball almost right away. I played on a team with seven other women for one season. We didn't score a lot of baskets, but we had a good time, and it was a great way for me to meet people. Interestingly enough, the basketball season included a few different couplings. First, the forward was dating the point guard. They'd been dating since high school and came to Mills together. They broke up, and the forward found solace with the shooting guard. Six years later, the forward and the shooting guard are still girlfriends, living together in Portland, Oregon. Fittingly, I was a swing player.
About three weeks into the season there was a dance, the Fetish Ball. A woman named Flynn invited me to go with her.
She came up to me in a tea shop, sat down, and said, "Do you want to go to the Fetish Ball with me?"
I looked perplexed. "What about your girlfriend?"
"She's out of town," Flynn said.
I assured Flynn I was flattered, but straight. I was also completely put off by Flynn's response about her girlfriend being out of town. "What a bitch," I thought. "Her girlfriend goes out of town and she's out here hitting on the first straight girl she sees."
We were in classes together; we talked. It turned out Flynn was cool. She was fun, smart, and, for a butch dyke, quite attractive. I learned that she and her girlfriend were in a "polyamorous" relationship, a relationship where they were each other's primary partners but still dated and slept with other people. This was the first time I'd heard of this as a formal "type" of relationship. It allowed me to see Flynn as less of an asshole, and just as a lesbian who was attracted to me.
Flynn started taking stats for the basketball team. She hung around me quite a bit. One day, about two months into her role as statistician, we got pizza after a game. Everyone left the restaurant, but Flynn and I were just getting into the politics of the impending war in Afghanistan, so we stuck around. She made me smile. I soon became aware of why she was really doing stats for our crappy basketball team.
From that conversation, we decided to organize students to resist the war and Bush. We worked together, organizing for six months. One night, the co-op I lived in threw a party. Midway through the night, I saw Flynn leaving. I ran after her, and from about twenty feet away called out, "Be sure to come back!" I had fallen for her. I didn't even know I could fall for a woman.
Flynn came back to the party, and we ended up talking about what it would mean for me to date her. Then we kissed, and the chemistry was almost unbearably overwhelming. It went on like that. We dated, had some of the most incredible sex of my life, and had an incredible amount of fun. We dealt with her polyamorous relationship, which ended about six months into our being together, due to the fact that she and I spent "too much" time together. That was probably true.
I was deeply attracted to Flynn's intense masculinity. She made me feel like a woman. I started wearing skirts, heels, and jewelry. Her masculinity complemented my femininity in a very pronounced way. I'd never been that girly before, and haven't been since. When I played basketball, I wore bows in my hair because I knew it turned her on. Turning Flynn on turned me on to no end. I'd give anything, today, for the chemistry she and I had back then.
The whole time, I knew I wasn't gay. I didn't know what I was, but I knew that I wasn't strictly attracted to women. Partially, because Flynn wasn't exactly a woman. She had one of the most intense male energies I'd ever been around. She was a perfect balance of masculine and feminine traits. Flynn was protective, thoughtful, loving, caring, strong, stable, and sensitive. She was also intent on pleasing me, with just the right amount of machismo. She was, and remains, in a word, hot.
A couple weeks into dating me, Flynn recommended a few books for me to read, since I wasn't fitting in to the standard "bi" definition. I wanted to know what the hell was up with me. She lent me Stone Butch Blues and The Ethical Slut. But the one I read and identified with most was Pomosexuals, edited by Carol Queen and Lawrence Schimel. These people spoke my language.
Pomosexuals contained stories of people and couples who were simply not defined, or who defined themselves outside the "normal" structure of sexuality we've carried on and developed through time. I didn't fit into the structure I'd been bequeathed: lesbian, bisexual, straight, gay man trapped in a femme's body. None of it described me. I am a postmodern sexual: I am sexual with the people I choose to be with for reasons independent of who I "should" be doing; and, perhaps most of all, my sexuality is not a defining characteristic of who I intrinsically am.
I'm not a lesbian. I'm not straight. I'm not bi. I'm just me; I'm a lover. Pomosexuality defines the undefined, I suppose. It's not that I don't have a type; it's just that there's not a word for someone who likes masculine people, regardless of their sex. And I don't want a label. As a favorite quote of mine states, "There is only one church, and membership is your bellybutton." We are all sexual beings; we all belong here; we are all fine and good just the way we are.
I Got Hammered and Made Out with My Friend for $30 in Front of 12 Guys. . . . Am I a Lesbian?
Maybe I had been watching too much Real World. Maybe I was bored. Perhaps I wasn't living up to the hot sorority girl image I had worked so hard to achieve. Or maybe it was the six shots of Absolut Kurant and twelve guys chanting my name in a dingy second-floor apartment above Johnny's Big Red Bar & Grille that made me do it. I don't know. I don't remember. I'm lying; I do remember thanks to the Internet photos that surfaced a few days later.
We were hanging out at Steve and JP's apartment. Being that it was winter in Ithaca, New York, we had been drinking heavily for a few months. I had reached a fashion crossroads where the only clothes that still fit me were drawstring sweatpants and hoop earrings. There was a stack of sparkly tube tops in the closet that, sadly, never saw the strobe light of the bar again. I was going out every night, vomiting alone in alleys, and waking up on stained beanbag chairs.
There were ten other guys who lived in that apartment, so most of them were hanging out, along with a few random dudes, my friend Camilla, and the girl on the couch the guys fondly called "Crack Whore." Some of the guys were tossing around options for the rest of the night; somewhere between "go to another bar" and "stay here and play quarters," someone at the table slurred, "Watch Liza and Camilla make out!"
Oh, God, I am not that kind of girl. I laughed. Camilla laughed. We weren't even paying attention. I was talking about something else as doe-eyed young men excitedly slid shots down the table. One guy was running to the fridge to get another bottle of Absolut. There was an electric buzz in the room, and dudes who hadn't even been sitting at the table emerged from doorways with concealed cameras.
The intensity was building. I was starting to feel weird. These guys knew me. They hung out with me in my sweatpants and hoop earrings all the time. They usually didn't even try to make out with me, unless they were blackout drunk. But here they were, hovering, like middle-aged women spotting the sale rack at an Ann Taylor outlet. Even Crack Whore had gotten off the couch and was sidling over. Someone must have sensed my apprehension and mistaken it for coquettish curiosity. Likely, it was the same individual who instigated the "Make Out! Make Out!" chants.
Amidst a frat-tastic sea of rowdy Internet-porn subscribers, Camilla and I locked eyes. We laughed. We were good friends; would it really be that big a deal? Of course not; if nothing else, it would be a fabulous story the next morning. She was probably thinking how her boyfriend (who was loudly chanting next to her) would think it was hot. I was picturing my next game of "I never," and how I would feel like less of a loser if I could drink to "I've never made out with a girl" along with the rest of my girlfriends. I was supposed to be doing crazy things that I could never do again. I mean, come on; doesn't everyone have a lesbian story from college?
My thoughts of college experimentation were quickly interrupted, as someone had started a betting pool. Crinkled bills littered the beer-stained tabletop. Now, in addition to becoming a momentary lesbian, I was about to become a whore. A whore! Someone who accepts money for sexual favors! I was out; no way. This was something I could never be okay with, no matter how drunk I was. I looked again. There was a sizable amount of cash on the table.
By this point, Camilla and I were looking anywhere but at each other. We were also staggering quite a bit. "Oh, fuck it," she said. "I'll do it." She laughed, took a shot, and looked at me. I couldn't back down. I looked at the cash again. No way was I taking it, even if we did make out. The guys were all screaming now, straining to get a better look. God, I wished I didn't like attention so much; this was really embarrassing.
I inched toward Camilla; if we were going to do this, I would at least try to make it look hot. We touched each other awkwardly, and the boys jeered even louder. I closed my eyes and wondered if I would like it. Our lips touched and the counting began: "one Mississippi, two Mississippi. . . "
Our tongues were touching; it was a real kiss. Would things be awkward in the morning? Would she call me? Would we IM? Would we tell anyone about this? Would we joke about it at our sorority chapter meeting? And Camilla's pretty hot does that mean I'm the butch one? Oh, my God, I'm wearing sweatpants.... Of course, I'm the butch one!
We started to touch not quite second base, but we definitely got into it. A camera flashed. I pulled away. We had made it to "ten Mississippi," and I felt like I was going to pass out. We looked at each other, at the money on the table, at the guys screaming, at the empty shot glasses, and I felt so college. I spanked Camilla's ass. It was cool.
We ran into Steve's room and plotted how to best conceal the sordid events of the past four minutes.
"I can't believe we did that!" she said.
"Was I good?" I asked.
"Yeah, you were," Camilla assured me.
Surprisingly, that meant a lot to me. She was a notorious bitch, and I knew she wouldn't lie. I wanted it in writing: Although Liza is only moderately sexually active, has zero relationship experience and no cool stories about doing it in crazy places, she is, in fact, a very good kisser. She also makes out with chicks. Well, I didn't get it in writing. But I did get a naughty picture on the Internet, and the satisfaction of knowing I was "sexually experimental."
One More Thing. . .
Whether you are queer, straight, bi, questioning, or have the libido of a leaf, remember that you don't have to label yourself to appreciate the tales of women who do. And, by all means, you don't have to justify yourself or your desires to anyone. Just be you.

Two things struck me from Tania Ganguli's story about Wayne Weaver's talk with the Jacksonville media yesterday.
1) "He reiterated that, despite voting yes on the previous deal, he did not think it was sustainable."
Why didn't he join the two other dissenters, then, and vote against it? Don't tell me now how you knew it wasn't sustainable then if you voted for it. Way to fall in line with the masses instead of being your own man.
2) "Specific to Jacksonville, Weaver talked about the need for upgrades in EverBank Field to make the stadium experience more valuable for fans, especially in premium seats that the Jaguars had trouble filling this season."
"'Every dollar of revenue we'll take in [for] our clubs costs a lot more than it did two years ago, five years ago, six years ago, 10 years ago," Weaver said. "We have to be able to fund these things. We change out the scoreboard -- scoreboard building may cost $25-30 million. ... There's a cost to put these games on, and the players have to understand that before we divide the pie, some of those costs have to be recognized.'"
The team did great selling tickets last year, with no games blacked out.
But when I am looking for someone to pay for you to improve the scoreboard at your stadium, I'm not thinking of it as an expense for your offensive line to share in, sorry. I can't see NFL fans buying into that thinking.
Yes, make the stadium experience as good as humanly possible, so people think being there is better than watching on TV.
But my sense of things in Jacksonville is that the more expensive tickets don't sell because people can't afford them. The solution isn't necessarily to make premium seats more premium. Maybe it's to make them more like all the other seats, particularly with regard to their price.

Opener Ed Cowan says after seven Tests he's ready to cement spot in Aussie line up
- From: The Courier-Mail
- November 07, 2012
UNDER-FIRE opener Ed Cowan insists he is not out of his depth at Test level despite being told by a former Australian selector he bats too slowly to succeed in the baggy green.
Cowan accepts he needs runs in the first Test against South Africa at the Gabba starting Friday, with the 30-year-old averaging 29.83 from seven Tests and having yet to post a breakthrough century since his debut against India last summer.
And the eloquent Cowan also knows he has his doubters. In his book released last year, titled In the Firing Line, Cowan made the shock revelation he was told by a former Test selector he would never make it as a Test cricketer because he lacked the ability to score freely and quickly.
The stinging critique came in June 2010, just after Cowan had blasted a ton playing for Australia A against Sri Lanka.
Cowan never named the selector, but the appraisal is sure to be added motivation as the compact left-hander prepares for the South African series that could make or break his Test career.
With Test debutant and Victorian opener Rod Quiney breathing down his neck at No.3, Cowan is confident he can overcome a slow start to the Sheffield Shield season and cement his place at the apex of Australia's top order.
"At no stage have I felt out of my depth (at Test level)," said Cowan, who has managed just 150 runs at 21.42 for Tasmania entering the first Test.
"Knowing what to expect means you can prepare accordingly and seven Tests is now a point in time where you know what Test match cricket is about and what you need to get to that point for peak performance.
"I am pretty comfortable with how my preparation has been and it's something that has been building for six or seven months now.
"It feels like a crescendo to November 9 and I'm looking forward to turning it on then."
While he has yet to post a triple-figure score in the Test arena, Cowan is determined to emulate the likes of Ricky Ponting and Michael Hussey and become a regular match-winner.
"Everyone always has something to prove in the Australian cricket team. There's always more runs to score," he said.
"I probably haven't performed as well as I would have liked to in terms of getting myself in and getting a match-winning score.
"I feel like I belong in the team but that ultimate belief comes from actually winning the game off your own bat like a (Michael) Clarke, Ponting or Hussey does once or twice a summer.
"They win a game off their own bat and that's the difference between averaging 30 and 50."
Cowan made a compelling statement in his Test debut, compiling an impressive 68 against India in last year's Boxing Day clash, and hopes a similar start at the Gabba can set up a bumper summer.
"The currency is runs and you need to be judged by that," he said.
"You look through the last 10 big series of the Australian team, even right back to Michael Slater setting the tone in England in 1993. The first day is huge but the first Test is huge, it can not only set up the game but it sets up the series.
"You can wear down the bowlers over a series as we saw England do at the Gabba the last time they were here.
"To reward performance, that's the selectors' job, it's not talent identification, they are there to pick the best team at any one time.
"You have to be able to deal with failure, you have to be able to ride the waves, up and down."
