I suffer from iron deficiency and this product is wonderful in keeping my iron levels up. I take a little "swig" out of it every morning. It is also a lot cheaper than some of the other liquid iron products out there. The only reason I give it 4 stars is because the taste is quite dreadful. But I don't mind that much since I know how wonderfully this product works!

Baylor University is Not the School I Though it Was, But There is Still Hope: An Open Letter to Baylor Leadership
Dear Baylor Leadership,
In light of the recent sexual assault scandal that has plagued Baylor University, I find myself between a rock and hard place. I love Baylor University but I hate your
response to Baylor's recent sexual assault scandal. Given the wave of sexual violence reports that have made the news thanks in part to players in the National Football League, Baylor University was positioned to set a high standard for handling, issuing punishment for, and creating policy against sexual assault. They had an opportunity to be a leader for equality, advocate for victims, and eliminate violence.
But, you took the "ostrich approach" instead.
Baylor University meant a lot to me personally. I graduated from Baylor in December 1999. I am also a seemingly rare graduate whose hometown is also Waco, Texas. Growing up in a poor neighborhood in the shadows of Baylor, I often felt detached from the "world's largest Baptist university". I wasn't Baptist nor was I the self-perceived, prototypical student that I thought attended Baylor. I remember my first day on campus driving through the parking garage in my 1988 Mitsubishi Mighty Max that had squeaky shocks, pealing black paint, and a broken tailgate and parking next to brand new Audis, BMWs, Mercedes, and the occasional Camaro. I felt economically out of place.
But not academically and not socially. I quickly learned that I could compete intellectually with wealthier students at Baylor despite my own misguided perceptions driven by growing up in the poor side of Waco. But it often felt odd being the 'kid from Waco' attending Baylor.
As that Waco kid, I didn't know about Baylor's world class academics, its numerous colleges and schools,
high quality professors and researchers, or its wonderful campus traditions which include Homecoming Bonfire, the Baylor lampposts that "Light the Ways of Time", or Ring Out. All I knew about Baylor was its terrible football team that had 4 different coaches over the span of 10 years in the 1990s.
But, after going through Baylor, graduating, and moving on to adulthood and a career, I am thankful for my time at Baylor. People have often heard me say that Baylor saved my life. If not for the opportunity to be part of the Baylor community and earn an outstanding education, I know I would have been another low-socioeconomic statistic.
As such, I am a huge fan of Baylor athletics and I was an advocate for the university. I got teary-eyed when Robert Griffin III won the Heisman Trophy, I have a basketball signed by Brittney Griner, and I have talked students that I have worked with into attending Baylor because of the wonderful and positive experience that I had as a student. Baylor became a huge part of my life.
But as much as Baylor means to me personally, I can't support the university right now. Baylor often asks their graduates to represent Baylor by "flinging their green and gold afar" and I have done my part for almost 20 years. But Baylor has abandoned their alumni, their Christian values, and their mission and vision statement by ignoring a significant issue that is hurting women across the world. How can I represent Baylor when I no longer share Baylor's value system?
I commend the efforts of major athletic boosters to call for reform through the Bears for Leadership Reform initiative. These businessmen, politicians, and attorneys said all the right things and called for appropriate reforms, but I believe this was an attempt to hold their money and support hostage if their demands weren't met. In other words, their grandstanding was more about football and less about the real issues at hand.
I urge you, university leadership, to take a stand NOW and create real reforms throughout the academic and athletic communities. It's not too late to become a leader and BE the standard by which other academic institutions should follow for policy and practice in handling sexual violence. You should work to urge the alumni who are standing more beside a former coach than they are the university to stop their grandstanding. Ask them to stand down as they appear more as an embarrassment to the institution, and the issues at hand, than a support system for a coach who is never coming back. Listen to the advice of the advocates who speak out against sexual violence. Take a step back and reflect on what is truly important at a university — safety — emotional, social, and academic.
Dr. Jerry R. Burkett, Class of '99

Do I need a wedding film?
Aurora Wedding Films was founded by award winning wedding videographer Richard Shelton. We filmed our first wedding in March 2004 and have since created well over 300 wedding films in venues in the UK and across the world.

With the advent of compact DSLRs, and other technology, we, as filmmakers, can give your wedding film that true cinema look. With audio captured off camera, via mini microphones, and a wealth of cinematic music at out disposal, we are now able to create stunning images with great music and audio.
At Aurora, through inspired wedding videography, our aim is to create a wedding film as unique as you. Each of our films is as different to the next, without compromising on our style and expertise.

More details of packages and what a wedding videographer might cost you, can be found on our pricing page.
Did you know, that in a recent bridal survey, the number one regret of those getting married was not having a wedding videographer // quoting weddingforward.com "Many couples decide to find a great professional photographer to capture the moments but don't include a videographer in their wedding budget. This is something you will likely regret not doing at your wedding. Wedding videography offers a treasured memory that allows you to relive the memories of your wedding day on a more personal level."
We have shot at some of the most popular wedding venues in the UK and also worldwide, at destinations such as Italy, Jamaica, Malta and Croatia.

Srinagar, Feb 16: The political stalemate in Jammu and Kashmir may end soon. Reportedly, People's Democratic Party Chief Mufti Mohammed Sayeed is likely to meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi soon and it is also being believed that both BJP and PDP have reached to consensus on a number of issues, paving a path to give a stable Government in the J&K.
The final call over the same will be taken by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
As per reports, the BJP will have the deputy chief minister and a major share in portfolios to ensure equitable development of all the three regions of the state.
"We feel to forge a development-oriented ruling alliance with the PDP in the country`s only Muslim majority state would do good to the image of the BJP nationally and internationally," a senior BJP leader said in Jammu.
The leader, requesting anonymity, said at the same time the party would not make any compromises on its "basic principles".
The BJP`s stand on contentious issues like Article 370, Armed Forces Special Powers Act (AFSPA) and the settlement of west Pakistan refugees in Jammu and Kashmir has been diagonally opposed to that of the PDP.
The PDP seeks firm assurances on protection of Article 370, the BJP stands for a national debate on whether this temporary provision of the Indian constitution, granting special status to J&K, should stay or go.
The results of the assembly elections in Jammu and Kashmir on December 23 threw up a hung assembly with PDP emerging as the single largest party bagging 28 seats in the 87-member house. BJP came close second with 25 seats while National Conference bagged 15 seats followed by Congress with 12 seats and others winning seven seats.
Governor's rule was imposed in the state on January 8, a day after former Chief Minister Omar Abdullah asked Vohra to relieve him of the caretaker responsibilities with immediate effect. No party or combination of parties has staked claim for government formation in the state so far.
Amid reports of BJP inching closer towards sealing an alliance with the People's Democratic Party (PDP) to form a government in the state of Jammu and Kashmir, the saffron party's parental organisation RSS is reportedly unhappy with the Common Minimum Programme between the two parties.
As per a report published in India Today, the BJP's ideological mentor has slammed the saffron party for its "compromise" on the Uniform Civil Code, the Armed Forces Special Powers Act (AFSPA) and Article 370 of the Indian Constitution, which provides special status to Jammu and Kashmir.
The BJP and PDP reportedly arrived at a common minimum programme, last week, to put an end to the political deadlock in the valley state. The BJP and PDP are in talks to reach at a consensus over forming government by Feb 23.
While the PDP and BJP`s `informal negotiations` for government formation in Jammu and Kashmir are progressing smoothly, the two sides are still dragging their feet on contentious issues like Article 370 and the AFSPA.
Insiders in both parties -- the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) -- in Jammu and Srinagar told IANS that the two sides have agreed on a full six-year term as chief minister for PDP patron Mufti Muhammad Sayeed.
Earlier on Sunday, reports of PDP, the single largest party in the J&K assembly, putting up a fresh 11-point proposal in front of the BJP came to fore. Following this, it is being said that the PDP will soon form an alliance with the BJP in the state.

Advice on 1st rifle
Just joined, hoping to start hunting next season. I hope this question isnt somewhere else that i missed.
I am going to buy a .270 bolt action rifle for mostly deer hunting. From my research the Howa Hogue, Weatherby Vanguard 2, Savage 116 and Remington 700 all interest me. I dont want to spend a ton of money for my first rifle, but want quality. I also dont want to buy a $400 rifle and after one season wish i would have bought an $800 rifle. I want one to last me a good long time. I've looked at brownings, and not really sure what makes them cost so much more. What would you folks recommend?
Thanks for any advice.
Don't forget to look at the Rugers
I own a M77 all weather in .270 & is a great shooter
also bought my daughter the Ruger american in a .308 & to be honest I Like the American better shoots as good or better then the M77 has a adjustable set trigger & is light weight with not much kick only drawback to the american is no iron sights but I scope all my rifles anyway so no big deal
I like the Ruger line as well. i should mention i am looking or a rifle that does not come in a package. I have a scope, Bushnell Bone Collector DOA Elite.
I Like the Ruger.I bought one several years ago in .243.Even with a 161/2 inch barrel its very accurate.I've taken two deer with it .It has a stainless barrel and laminated stock.I carry it in wet weather and when walking in thick brush.
Don't forget the Marlin XS7 or XL7
I have already said this several times on this forum so sorry team but here it is again. I feel that for the money ~300.xx you can not find a better rifle than the Marlin bolt actions. You will find a solid action, good barrel, and a clean trigger. I really don't think the Ruger American is any better for the up charge of 50-100 dollars. The only advantage with the Ruger is that you get a detachable magazine inplace of the blind floorplate with the Marlin. You have already picked your caliber of 270 Win, it is one of the greats for Deer hunting. I don't think that there really is any difference on the Deer when comparing 270 Win, 280 Rem, 308 Win, or 30-06. I have setup several of these Marlin XL7s in 30-06 for hunters and I would not hessitate to buy another, they are everything you need. Check gunbroker.com for prices that they are going for, and watch the newspaper adds. When they go onsale locally they are usually around 300 dollars.
I would not purchase a $400.00 rifle if i could afford a $800.00 one. Browning makes a great rifle that with good care will hold it's value better than most production rifles out there. You really have to decide on what your budget is and then what rifles fit in it. I like real wood not composite material. Budget rifles are budget rifles for a reason. Purchase with-in your budget and hopefully you are pleased for a long time.
OK one question & not being a jerk but has anyone tried the American rifle
I have both top of the line ruger & the so called bottom line & like I have said the american shoots as well as the top of the line ruger will it last as long time will tell but I can say for now I would not spend the long dollar just cause it costs more just my .02
Top line rifles, you are getting more but it costs....
It seems that there is a real big gap between the entry level rifles 300-400 dollars and the high end ones 700-900 dollars. The exeption are the Remington SPS series and the Weatherby Vangards those are running around 500 dollars with synth stocks. I myself would much rather have the Winchester 70 Featherweight or a Ruger 77 Hawkeye at around 800. These are ones that will not take a back seat to anything offered over a lifetime. Yes Custom rifles will always upstage them but the price of admission is add another thousand at least. For a new hunter/shooter your tastes may change and tieing up a ton of cash on a particular rifle might not be a good choice. That is why I recommended the Marlin. All the rifles offered for the most part will not be bad choices. I would avoid the entry level Savage axis and the Remington M710/770s. Don't be in a hurry do alot of comparisons and ask the various gunshop sales techs. Everyone will have their own idea of what the best is. Something will feel the best to you.
the ruger m77 and all american or both good rifles. the Howa is a nice one also.remington has lost alot in quality control,never know if you will get a good one or not. Im not into the weatherby hype,dont really care for them. savage makes fine rifles also. As for the browning,I use a browning abolt in 270. the differance in a browning and others is like buying a lincoln or a pickup truck. while they both will get you were you wanna go,how do you wanna get there. if you use a browning you will see fast..................Browning,ruger m77, ruger all american,howa,savage,remington,weatherby. in that order IMHO :thumbup:
Browning X-bolts, A-bolts are both great looking and damm good shooting rifles. As I have posted in the past, there are 1000's of great rifles in the used market that can be fantastic buys if you are patient. For the money..... nothing beats the Remington model 700 mountain rifle.

I liked this a lot, it's undeniable. But I can't believe I've only just discovered it, really.
The plot is well thought out, so far. I'm already excited for what's going to happen next, but I'm a little disappointed as to how slowly you update. I know you're probably busy studying, I have exams too.
It has that sort of fluffiness that I like, which isn't overly done or underly done. You might not see it as fluff. I'm talking about all them little cutesy scenes we like to imagine in our heads, like Red X wiping Raven's tears.
You're a good writer, so I hope to see more soon...
| Vatala Darkmist chapter 5 . 5/26/2012
Awww that's so sweet of him/her to save each other like that, gives me hope about their non-real relationship *sniff* why can't it be a canon ship? Why? Oh! And please update.
| E.C Silence chapter 5 . 5/26/2012
I forgot how much I adore this fic!
In the past two chapters, I feel you've shown Red-X a new angle of Raven, surprised him some, and I love when that happens! It seems most people underestimate Raven and her amount of power, it's always fun to read about her proving them wrong, and about them learning of her awesomeness!
I'm glad your ridden of your writers bloke! Please update soon

As kids, our family loved the Big Pineapple. We loved going there ourselves, and we took just about every single visitor there as well. Our photo albums are peppered with now-faded shots of various clan members. Complete with big sunglasses and perms. Everything about our trips there signalled excitement, visitors, and happy tension. Childhood's salad days before we could see past the fibreglass and merchandising.
When I try to think about what it was exactly that we were drawn to, I'm left somewhat empty-handed. I remember the old advertisements on TV that featured ridiculously tall parfaits (that I never had) and the Macadamia Nut Train.
On a recent trip to Queensland, we stopped by the Big Pineapple for old times' sake. To see it as it is today, and scotch the rumours that we'd all heard that it had been taken away.
It was there. The photo for this post was taken there in September 2014. Surrounding it were grassy, cracked car-parks, rundown novelty stalls, and overgrown pineapple patches. There was an odd little zoo further down the block. Everything felt a little defeated and sad.
We left thinking we didn't need to go back to the Big Pineapple any more.

The hell you can't. Whatever happened to common courtesy, common sense,

Transmission through sub-wavelength apertures in perfect metals is expected to be strongly suppressed. However, by structural engineering of the apertures, we numerically demonstrate that the transmission of transverse electric waves through periodic arrays of subwavelength apertures in a thin metallic film can be significantly enhanced. Based on equivalent circuit theory analysis, periodic arrays of square structured subwavelength apertures are obtained with a 1900-fold transmission enhancement factor when the side length a of the apertures is 10 times smaller than the wavelength (a/λ= 0.1). By examining the induced surface currents and investigating the influence of the lattice constant and the incident angle to the resonant frequency, we show that the enhancement is due to the excitation of the strong localized resonant modes of the structured apertures.

My grandparents left me a house when the passed away. They put the deed in my name only. my husband and i are getting a divorce. Is he entiled to any part of the house
To some extent, this may well be marital proerty, subject to division.
If you have questions, contact me.Ask a similar question
It depends on how long ago the grandparents left you that house. It depends on the length of the marriage. It depends upon whether you both lived in the house and shared in paying the expenses and mortgage. It depends on a host of other things.
Massachusetts is what's called an equitable division state. This means that they look at everything that both parties own and they make a "fair" division. It is not necessarily 50/50.Ask a similar question
Attorney Cheong is correct. You should consult an attorney in your divorce. If you inherited it during the marriage, it is more likely that some portion may be included in the assets to be divided than if you inherited after you both separated. To assist your attorney, you should compile a list focusing on the following:
1) when you received the property in relation to the marriage;
2) the use of the property by yourself and/or your Husband during the marriage;
3) the financial contributions, if any (payment of expenses, renovations, etc.) made to the house during the marriage. For example, was joint money or your Husband's money contributed to upkeep, etc.; and
4) non-financial contributions (did your Husband help fix it up, maintain the house, etc.).
The more your Husband contributed to the house, the stronger his claim will be if it was an asset of yours during the marriage. The Court has a massive amount of discretion, though, and anything is possible.
Best of luck.Ask a similar question

25 Part 1
After Matt had finished playing his part as host - This is MY house, thought Anna - the strange army returned to the living room, slightly sheepish at her indignation. Really, it was directed at Matt, because he was the one who had turned a serious meeting into a tea party.
Anna looked at the assembled group. They were an odd mix – Telcontar, Protagonists and herself, half fairy. She was the one there who had even a drop of human blood in her, Anna knew.
"Matt, does it say where they'll attack first?" she asked. He nodded, skimming through the text to find the appropriate excerpt.
"It's easy enough," he replied, looking up from the screen. "Here." He pointed to a section of text in bold. Anna nodded. She had been almost expecting it.
Glancing around, she immediately took control of the situation.
"Right," she said. "I'll stay here as bait, with Matt, to draw them in. It's me they're after, so that'll work. Spook, Del, you're with us. Now, if eight of the Protagonists stand outside, defending the area – I'd say a mix of Fighters and Influencers, for best effect. But take a Telepath, because you need to warn us when they're coming.
"Then if another eight of you circle the area, destroying the Celryn from behind, and making sure they don't try to run away. I assume all of you can fight, even if it's not your special skill?"
There were a few murmurings. "We'll arm you, of course," she said, trying to reassure them.
"Now," Anna continued, "if the remaining Protagonists stay here and fight alongside us, we've got a chance. If we can wipe out this lot, the Telcontar can help us polish off the others in a little while." Matt smirked slightly at her phrasing, but Anna ignored him, pointedly not looking in his direction.
"Everyone knows what they are doing?" she corroborated, and there was a chorus of agreement, though in some cases it was reluctant.
"Don't forget to use your powers of Shifting," said Delorfinde from her corner, where she stood like a shadow, silent but ever-present. Anna nodded vigorously.
"She's right – Shifting will confuse the Celryn and make you harder to catch."
Matt had glanced back at the computer screen, deciphering more of the instructions, but now he looked up, his eyes slightly panicked.
"They're attacking today!" he exclaimed. "They'll be here any minute!"
The Protagonists leapt into action, darting to their positions. Spook was very pale, and she clenched the crosses, which Anna thrust into hands that were shaking, with fingers that were white at the knuckles.
"Del, take a box of crosses to the others, would you?" said Anna. Being in charge was rare occurrence for her, but she could not deny that she was enjoying it, just slightly.
Delorfinde left the room, carrying the box that Matt had given Anna when he arrived during the snowy blizzard a couple of days previously. It had been unnoticed on a shelf until now, just biding its time.
Spook was sitting with her head in her hands. Elorithryn and Moonwalker were not among the Protagonists that would be fighting, and she could not help but be anxious. Why hadn't they come? What if she died here, with only a pasta message to say goodbye?
More to the point, she wondered why it was that they hadn't come in the first place. She hated to think of them as cowards, because Elorithryn and Moonwalker were two of the bravest people she knew, but it was hard not to. They should have come, otherwise. As an Influencer and a Fighter, their powers were strong, and all others like them had come, those who had got the message, anyway.

The Jewish tradition devotes considerable attention to sexuality. Sexuality is the subject of many narratives and laws in the Tanakh and rabbinic literature.
Attitude towards sexuality[edit]
In Judaism, sexuality is viewed as having both positive and negative potential, depending on the context in which it is expressed. According to the Rabbinical enumerations of the 613 commandments, the commandment to procreate is the first mitzvah in the Torah:[1]
"And God blessed them; and God said unto them: Be fruitful, and multiply [Peru Urevu], and replenish the earth, and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that creepeth upon the earth"— Genesis, 1:28
This commandment, known as pru urvu (פרו ורבו), is only binding on men; women are exempt because childbirth puts them in physical danger, though a dissenting opinion is recorded in the mishnah Yevamot 6:6. This commandment was originally binding on all of humanity, as it was given to Adam, the progenitor of all mankind. However, after the giving of the Torah it became obligatory on Jews only.[citation needed]
According to the Sefer haChinnuch, the central nature of this mitzvah is due to the fact that God desires for the world to be populated.[2] However, there is another Torah commandment known as onah (Heb: עונה) which obligates a man to provide sexual intercourse to his wife on a regular basis, regardless of whether they have already had children.
The Jewish sages recognized that the sexual need of mankind (also known as Yitzra De'arayot) is essential for perpetuating society, despite having its negative sides which may lead to sins. For this reason, Chazal's attitude and statements on the matter are dual, and they recognize two inclinations in mankind, the Yetzer hatov (the "Good inclination") and the Yetzer hara (the "evil inclination"), that can both influence sexuality and sexual behaviours. Maimonides discusses this dichotomy explicitly:
"A man's wife is permitted to him. Therefore a man may do whatever he desires with his wife. He may engage in relations whenever he desires, kiss any organ he desires, engage in vaginal or other intercourse or engage in physical intimacy without relations, provided he does not release seed in vain. Nevertheless, it is pious conduct for a person not to act frivolously concerning such matters and to sanctify himself at the time of relations, as explained in Hilchot Deot. He should not depart from the ordinary pattern of the world. For this act was [given to us] solely for the sake of procreation...
... Our Sages do not derive satisfaction from a person who engages in sexual relations excessively and frequents his wife like a rooster. This reflects a very blemished [character]; it is the way underdeveloped people conduct themselves. Instead, everyone who minimizes his sexual conduct is praiseworthy, provided he does not neglect his conjugal duties, without the consent of his wife"— Mishneh Torah, Issurei Biah, 21:9,11
The basic Jewish positive attitude towards sex and sexuality within marriage is opposed to Christianity, which does not view sex favorably.[3][4][5][6]
On the other hand, sexual activity is also viewed as a grave sin within Judaism if it outside of the bounds of permissible behavior. Certain types of forbidden sexual behaviors, known as gilui arayot, are viewed so negatively that a Jew is obliged to sacrifice his life before committing them.
Forbidden sexual acts in Judaism[edit]
Isurei bi'ah[edit]
The term isurei bi'ah (Hebrew איסורי ביאה) refers to those one may not have intercourse with. The most serious of these form a subset known as arayot (Hebrew: עריות). Intercourse with arayot is one of the few acts in Judaism which one may not perform even to save one's life.
Arayot includes:
- Incestuous relations[7]
- Male homosexual anal intercourse
- Bestiality
- A Jewish woman during her menstrual period (known as niddah)
Other isurei bi'ah include:
- Sexual intercourse between Jews and gentiles
- Divorcees or converts to Kohanim
- Mamzerim to regular Jews
Homosexuality and bisexuality[edit]
The traditional view is that the Torah forbids all anal intercourse between two males, and this is the view of Orthodoxy; there are other modern views that disagree. The source of this prohibition is a verse from the Book of Leviticus: "Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind; it is abomination." (Leviticus, 18:22). However, Rashi interpreted the matter as only prohibiting anal sexual acts between two men (and not other sexual acts between them), as he stated: "As one would penetrate a blue-brush into a receiver." But other authoritative commentators of the Torah see all sexual acts between two males to be included within the ban on "sperm in vain".[citation needed] The Jewish sages added additional barriers to this ban, and forbid males to put themselves in any situation that might lead to such an offense. For example: Chazal prohibited two single males from sleeping under the same blanket.[citation needed]
There is no ban on female-female intercourse in the Hebrew Bible, but in later rabbinical halakhic texts such is mentioned as a forbidden act, as Maimonides wrote: "A conduct of women rubbing oneself against the other, lesbians" (Maimonides' Mishneh Torah, Book of Kedushah, Issurei Biah, 21:8).[8]
Extramarital sex[edit]
Opinions on extramarital sex differ. It is universally frowned upon; according to some authorities it even falls under a biblical prohibition.
|This section may require cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards. The specific problem is: It appears that another article entitled "Sperm in vain" has been inexpertly merged into this section. Cleanup is therefore needed (August 2013) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Despite not having been explicitly prohibited in the Torah,[9][10][11] the Halakha and the Oral Torah view masturbation as an Halakhic prohibition and a great sin. The attitude towards a male sperm is one of a potential future living human being, and thus masturbation is referred to as a murder, in which the masturbator is exterminating his potential offspring.
Sperm in vain (Hebrew: זרע לבטלה, pronounced: Zera Levatala) is a Talmudic term for any sexual act in which a male's sperm is consciously "wasted".[12] However, if his wife is pregnant, infertile, or elderly it is not considered wasting seed since this is for the purpose of fulfilling the "Onah" Mitzvah-commandment, the husband's marital obligations.
But why all these precautions? — Because otherwise one might emit semen in vain, and R. Johanan stated: Whosoever emits semen in vain deserves death, for it is said in Scripture.— Babylon Talmud, Tractate Niddah, p. 13a
Prior to the 20th century, it was a Jewish term usually (but not only) referring to male masturbation. In Shulchan Aruch, on Yoreh De'ah, it is stated that wasting sperm is considered a sin greater than any sin in the Torah. In modern days, the Halakhic question on whether taking male semen and sperm for the purpose of medical examinations or insemination remains in dispute among Jewish legal authorities.
Homosexual intercourse is also considered an act of sperm in vain, in addition to having its own prohibition. According to many opinions, even marital sexual acts in which the sperm does not enter the vagina are considered no less an act of sperm in vain.
The Halakhic attitude towards female masturbation is found in the opinions of the Ben Ish Chai,[13] who says that it is wrong because it creates evil forces (Qliphoth) and brings the woman to connect spiritually with the evil angel Samael, and Rabbi Moshe Feinstein,[14] who forbids it because it involves indulging in sexual fantasy about men, which falls under the prohibition of forbidden thoughts, which are forbidden for women as well. However, it does not carry the severity of male masturbation, because it does not involve the release of seed.
Sexual fantasy and pornography[edit]
The halakhic literature discusses the prohibitions of hirhur (lit. thought) and histaklut (lit. gazing). Many of the practices of tzniut (modesty) serve to prevent these prohibitions from occurring.

Jews historically shared the abhorrence of male masturbation that characterized other societies.2 Interestingly, although the prohibition was not debated, legal writers had difficulty locating a biblical base for it, and no less an authority than Maimonides claimed that it could not be punishable by the court because there was not an explicit negative commandment forbidding it.3

St. Vincent Becomes St. Vincent
In the tradition of self-titled albums like The Velvet Underground (that band's third record) St. Vincent titled her fourth solo record St. Vincent. "I was reading Miles Davis' autobiography and in it he talks about how the hardest thing for any musician to do is to sound like yourself," she tells Kurt Andersen. "And I thought, 'You know what? I sound like myself on this record' and so I just self-titled it." The songwriter, singer, and guitarist Annie Clark has used the name since 2006. "Annie Clark sounds, to be frank, very, very boring," she admits. Good name for a country singer, though, Kurt suggests; "or Christian contemporary," she counters. "That's my next career."
If there's such a thing as indie rock royalty, St. Vincent is definitely among it. Her last record, Strange Mercy, appeared on pretty much every best-of list for 2011. The Smithsonian gave her an American Ingenuity Award for "having a revolutionary effect on how we perceive the world and how we live." And David Byrne hand-picked her to collaborate on an album with him. "I've always tried to live at that intersection of accessible pop music and lunatic fringe music," she tells Kurt Andersen.
Clark is also known for the characters that emerge in her songs. "Different archetypes appear in different records," she explains. "Strange Mercy was the archetype of a repressed housewife on barbiturates and white wine." Her new record "is a different archetype, the near-future cult leader. But it's all incredibly personal, it's all very much me."
Born and raised in Dallas, Clark got her start playing guitar with The Polyphonic Spree. "I was a kid and I was suddenly in a rock band, and there was Jagermeister and not showering," she remembers. "Which sounds disgusting to me now, but at the time I was just like 'Oh my god, I'm on the road, I'm opening for Brian Wilson!'" Around that time, Clark started experimenting with guitar effects and cultivating the sound she is known for today. "Tim [DeLaughter, the group's lead singer] would come over and go, 'Hey, can you make that sparkly?' And I'd run to Guitar Center and buy whatever pedal I thought might make a sparkly sound."

This invention relates to new and useful improvements in needle capping devices, specifically devices which assist the operator to insert a hypodermic needle into the sheath thereof without any danger of the needle engaging the fingers or hand of the operator.
Needle assemblies used for injections, extraction of blood and the like, from patients or animals include a syringe part with a detachable hypodermic needle on one end thereof and normally enclosed within a plastic sheath which frictionally engages the inner end of the needle assembly after the needle has been inserted into the sheath. Operators such as nurses, doctors, medical technicians, veterinary doctors, and radiological technicians often use disposable needle and syringe assemblies for various purposes during the treatment of patients. After use, the needle is with the sheath associated therewith prior to disposal.
This recapping process conventionally consists of holding the plastic sheath in one hand and the needle assembly in the other whereupon the operator endeavours to engage the extremely sharp extremity of the needle into the relatively small bore of the sheath. This often results in the operator missing the sheath altogether and whereby the sharp end of the needle penetrates the skin of the operator either on the fingers or hand thereof. With present day dangers of infection being transferred from the patient to the operator, it is desirable that some means be provided whereby such inadvertent puncturing is alleviated or prevented from occurring all together, and although the device is designed specifically for use with needle and syringe assemblies surrounded by a radiation shield, nevertheless it may be used with other types of needle and syringe assemblies.
According to one aspect of the present invention there is provided a support and retainer for syringe and needle combinations comprising in combination:
an elongate stem having upper and lower ends, at least a portion of the stem adjacent the upper end being hollow;
a base secured to the lower end of the stem for supporting the stem in an upright position on a substantially flat, horizontal surface; and
a shield extending around the stem adjacent the upper end thereof.
In accordance with another aspect of the invention, there is provided a support for use with a syringe and needle combination in which said syringe and needle combination includes a syringe, a hypodermic needle detachably secured to one end of said syringe, a selectively detachable sheath for said needle and a radiation shield component, said radiation shield component including a rear cap and a front cap with a substantially cylindrical radiation shielding element therebetween, said front cap being centrally apertured, said central aperture being screw threaded to screw threadably receive the front end of the associated syringe, said support including:
an elongate stem with upper and lower ends, at least a portion of the stem adjacent the upper end being hollow;
a base secured to the lower end of the stem for supporting the stem in an upright position on a substantially flat, horizontal surface; and
a shield extending around the stem adjacent the upper end thereof.
The support can be engaged upon a flat surface such as a table whereon it is self supporting. The sheath is supported in the hollow upper end of the stem. The needle of the syringe and needle combination is then easily engaged within the sheath, utilizing only one hand thereby permitting the operator to use the other hand to support or attend to a patient. The capping apparatus can be used to support a needle and syringe combination which may be used upon one patient intermittently such as, for example, a dentist applying an anaesthetic at several locations within the mouth of the patient.
The configuration of the outer perimeter of the base and shield may be such that, if the device is rested horizontally upon a flat surface, it cannot roll or move from the location in which it is placed.
With the foregoing in view, and other advantages as will become apparent to those skilled in the art to which this invention relates as this specification proceeds, the invention is herein described by reference to the accompanying drawings forming a part hereof, which includes a description of the best mode known to the applicant and of the preferred typical embodiment of the principles of the present invention, in which:
FIG. 1 is a side elevation of a needle and syringe assembly within a radiation shield.
FIG. 2 is a fragmentary vertical cross-sectional view of the invention showing the needle sheath inserted therein.
FIG. 3 is a fragmentary enlarged exploded view of the upper end of the stem showing the method of centering the radiation shield thereon.
FIG. 4 is a top plan view of FIG. 2 but with the sheath removed.
FIG. 5 is a top plan view of FIG. 2 but showing an alternative configuration of the shield and base.
FIG. 6 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of the sheath per se.
FIG. 7 is a view along the line 7--7 of FIG. 6.
In the drawings like characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the different figures.
Proceeding therefore to describe the invention in detail, reference should first be made to FIG. 1 which shows a needle and syringe assembly collectively designated 10 including a conventional syringe 11 having a cylindrical barrel and an operating plunger 12. A needle assembly collectively designated 13 includes the plastic inner end portion 14 and a hypodermic needle 15 extending therefrom which of course is hollow and includes the extremely sharp penetrating end 16. This needle assembly is normally screw threadably engaged within the discharge end 17 of the barrel 11.
Reference character 18 illustrates generally, a conventional radiation shield assembly including a rear cap 19, a front cap 20 and a substantially cylindrical leaded glass radiation shield barrel 21 extending therebetween. The end caps 19 and 20 are apertured centrally to receive the syringe 11 with the discharge end 17 being screw threadably engageable within the screw threaded aperture specifically designated 22 in the front end cap 20 so that the needle assembly 13 extends beyond the shield. Such radiation shields are normally used by nuclear medical technologists and this use requires that the needle assembly which contains the radioactive material, must be capped with the sheath collectively designated 23, during insertion into the radiation shield in order to prevent any possibility of contamination occurring to the needle assembly. This sheath 23, which is conventional, is normally made of plastic and consists of the main elongated hollow body portion 24, and enlarged upper end 25 and an extending upper flange 26. The interior of the portion 24 is provided with longitudinally extending grooves 27 which receive longitudinally extending ribs 28 normally formed on the outer surface of the tapered body portion 14 of the hypodermic needle portion 13 so that when it is necessary to re-engage the needle with the sheath, the needle is engaged within the sheath until the ribs 28 reach the area 29 at the junction between the grooves 27 and the portion 25 whereupon a slight rotation of one or the other enables the ribs to engage the grooves and to slide down into full engagement and frictional retention of the sheath upon the needle assembly and it is this action which normally holds danger of the needle piercing the operator.
The invention collectively designated 30 is preferably made of stainless steel o another material that can be sterilized or autoclaved between use. It consists of a planar base portion 31 which is provided with an outer perimeter 32 of at least three straight edges as shown in FIG. 5 thus forming a triangular configuration when viewed in plan. However, the preferred configuration is shown in FIG. 4 which shows six straight sides 32A thus forming a regular hexagon. This prevents the apparatus from rolling if it is positioned on its side on a flat surface. Other non-circular shapes can be used for the periphery of the base if desired.
A stem 33 is secured to and extends upwardly from the upper surface 34 of the base 31 and centrally thereof and this stem is preferably hollow for at least the major portion of the length thereof thus defining a bore 35 extending from the upper end downwardly towards the base.
A planar shield 36 is secured around the stem spaced downwardly from the upper end 37 thereof and the external configuration and size of this shield is preferably the same as the base 31 with the straight sides 32 or 32A in alignment between the shield 36 and the base 31. The shield 36 is spaced and parallel to the base so that the operator may grasp the stem 33 in one hand with the base 31 being on one side of the fist formed to grasp the stem and the shield 36 on the other side with the fingers and hand being fully shielded by the shield 36.
Alternatively, the stand or device 30 may be placed upon a planar surface 37 such as a table or the like so that the device is self supporting upon the base 31 and extends upwardly from the surface 37.
The upper end portion 37 of the stem which extends above the upper surface 38 of the shield 36 is provided with an upwardly and inwardly inclining upper end 39 which terminates outwardly of the inner wall 40 of the bore thus defining an inner annular upper side portion 41 perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the bore 35 as shown in FIG. 3, the purpose of which will hereinafter become apparent.
Reference to FIG. 3 will also show the inner end cap 20 of the radiation shield which is screw threaded centrally as at 22. The outer ends of the screw threaded portion 22 extend upwardly and inwardly as indicated by reference character 42 which matches substantially the chamfer or upwardly or inwardly extending surface 39 at the top end of the stem 33.
In use, and dealing first with the radiation shield covered syringe and needle assembly 10, the needle has been engaged with the radiation shield 18 whereupon the sheath 23 is either removed manually from the needle assembly 13 and engaged within the upper end of the stem as shown in FIG. 2, or, alternatively, the entire needle assembly with sheath is engaged downwardly within the stem 30 whereupon the sides of the bore within the stem 33 holds the sheath frictionally and allow the needle assembly and radiation shield assembly to be withdrawn ready for use.
Once the hypodermic needle assembly has been used on the patient, and the stand is engaged upon a planar surface 37, it is easy to re-engage the needle assembly 13 downwardly within the sheath 23 rotating same slightly so that the ribs 28 engage the grooves 27, and either withdraw the entire sheath needle assembly for disposal or let the stand 30 support the needle assembly which extends upwardly from the upper end 37 of the stem.
It will be noted that this may be a one-handed operation thus leaving the other hand of the operator free to support or attend to the patient upon whom the needle assembly has been used. It will also be note that the device will support the needle assembly if intermittent use upon the same patient is required.
If used with the radiation shield assembly 18, and if it is now ready for disposal, the entire syringe can be unscrewed from the radiation shield assembly and withdrawn therefrom together with the sheath which is now engaged upon the needle, whereupon the syringe and needle assembly can be disposed of in a conventional manner.
It will be noted, upon reference to FIG. 3, that when the sheath 23 is engaged within the upper end of the stem 33, the flange 26 engages the inner annular upper side portion 41 of the upper end 37 of the stem but that the flange does not intrude upon the chamfer 39 so that centering of the needle assembly by engaging the chamfer 42 of the shield with the chamfer 39 of the upper end, is relatively easy and which thus assists in the engagement of the needle body 14 with the sheath portion 24 without damage occurring to the needle. This is particularly useful when intermittent use of the one needle assembly is desired.
It will also be appreciated that the device can be used upon syringe and needle combinations without the radiation shield and that the sheath 23 can either be engaged within the stem 33 prior to disengagement from the needle 13 or, alternatively, the sheath can be removed and placed within the stand prior to use of the needle.
It will also be noted that the stand may be grasped by one hand of the operator around the stem and between the base 31 and the shield 36 so that the needle can be engaged within the sheath 23 supported within the bore, without any danger of the needle engaging the skin of the fingers or hand of the operator.
Since various modifications can be made in my invention as hereinabove described, and many apparently widely different embodiments of same made within the spirit and scope of the claims without departing from such spirit and scope, it is intended that all matter contained in the accompanying specification shall be interpreted as illustrative only and not in a limiting sense.

Residents of Wauwatosa's northwest side should not be alarmed if they wake up to the loud sound of a low-flying plane some morning if the next couple of weeks.
The Department of Natural Resources expects to spray for gypsy moth caterpillars in a 31-acre area between 104th and 106th streets and Courtland and Ruby avenues.
The ability to spray depends on the weather. When plans do fly over the area, it likely will happen about 5 a.m.
The caterpillars are an invasive and destructive pest that feeds on the leaves of many species of trees and shrubs. These areas are treated to prevent damage from gypsy moths and to reduce their populations to more sustainable levels. Global Positioning System technology is used to accurately target the intended areas, according to the DNR.
Although it's rare that people have an adverse reaction to the spray, the DNR recommends people in the area stay indoors and keep their windows closed in order to avoid direct exposure.
For spray updates, call (800) 642-6684 or e-mail email@example.com.

There's a lot of buzz about social networking software, which has to do
mostly with sites that exist to connnect people for social and/or business purposes. The best known such sites include friendster.com, ryze.org, and linkedin.com.
I really do like the potential of such sites. I figure we all crave a greater
sense of connection, of intimacy, to people in our lives. (I theorize
that sitcoms that have that sense are the ones with legs, like MASH,
Northern Exposure, Seinfeld, Friends, even The Sopranos.)
Specifically, journalists and investors are the ones talking about social
software. For a few months earlier this year, ordinary users were pretty
excited about this.
I have a lot of connections at these sites, though I haven't found one
that generates that sense of intimacy, just speaking personally.
I think a social networking site will really be successful when they
figure out how to provide some real sense of intimacy. I feel that a
prequisite for that is to demonstrate a culture of trust, and that takes
months or probably years.
Great customer service is part of this, but it's not taken seriously in
the usual corporate culture.
There are also technical requirements, mainly, that a site which does this
must scale well and perform well with lots of users. Trust is still a far
more important consideration than technology.
I figure that someone will figure this out and do it right; that might be
one of the existing sites, or maybe someone will surprise everyone.

The interaction of high-intensity, short-pulse laser radiation with liquids is fundamental to many contemporary technologies. Nonlinear phenomena can become important at high intensities, resulting in dramatic changes in the thermal response of the liquid to the incident radiation compared to classical model predictions. This work presents an experimental technique to measure the temperature rise during high-intensity laser-liquid interactions based on photothermal deflection of a laser probe beam. The technique is applicable for both weakly and strongly absorbing liquids, and for moderate and strong focusing of the heating laser beam. The experimental data are compared to theoretical predictions for two distinct high-intensity phenomena: saturable absorption and multiphoton ionization. The agreement between experimental predictions and theoretical results is good.}, keywords = {measurement, measurements}, doi = {10.1080/08916159508946504}, author = {Jon P.
