Any man who refused to attempt to make me orgasm would be drop-kicked out the door. They're fucking awesome.

Show him a video of squirters
perdix | 29
Uncle Moe, I told a girl, a sexually-experienced one at that, about squirting and she didn't believe it. I referred her to my training material (aka, free Internet porn), and she watched it and said it had to be some kind of trick. Apparently, only a minority of women are equipped to squirt, so you can see why the others might deny it exists.
Every female can squirt it just takes time and experience. Most woman feel to embarrassed and feel like there going to pee when starting to feel one.

They *are* going to pee. Look, liquids are incompressible: you think anatomists have missed the "squirt reservoir" for hundreds of years, an organ that (to judge from the videos) must be the size of a tangerine. I know you all think it's cool that a girl is so excited that she sprays a liquid when she reaches orgasm, just like a man, but she's just urinating. Deal with it.

If you loved him you wouldn't care about sex that much!
Not true, every woman can squirt, and it's not piss, the female body produces a liquid, have you ever seen a woman pee? And a woman squirt? Women pee much like men in straight lines ( best way to Descibe that I know) and women squirt like fire hoses it sprays in a wide arc. So unless the urethra expands 5-6 inches then it definently isn't piss.
And to elaborate on how every woman squirts, it's like walking, you have the ability, you just have to learn how to use it.

I can say squirting exist didnt believe it until it happen though its only happen twice. also its not piss, piss and the femal ejaculation has two totally different smells, texture, and color and also the way it squirts out.

pandacruisn30 | 3
This is soo true!! I am in a relationship for 4 months and we are waiting to have sex for the right moment. If he had meet me a few years ago I would have dumped him for the lack of action but I am willing to wait for him because he is a great guy who respects me and loves me! I love him with all my heart and soul just have to learn to be patient.

Sry 193 the female orgasm is a very real thing. I feel for you. Some girls it takes longer, some can have an O if they sneeze. But it is very real.. Maybe some day you will experience one.. Till then, next question please.
KatherineAnne | 7
They are completely real. And completely amazing. I'd be pissed if a guy was that lazy.

It's really not his fault, these days with all these stories about women faking their orgasms, he must have come to the conclusion that they are fake and rather than you faking it, he'd rather just drop it

They are too!! And they arnt rare either, the guy just has to put forth the effort. Girls put forth the effort to get guys off!

The female orgasm is just a tricky thing, just use foreplay to add a little aid if necessary ^_^

mine hurt like a bitch
Mister_Triangle | 21
But female orgasms ARE a myth; after all, I've never had one.
Clarice1 | 9
re: Mister_Triangle Okay, this is another one that it's stupid to vote down. I'm pretty sure the poster was JOKING, given that his name starts with "Mister". Get it? A man has never had a female orgasm? It's a joke. I'm a woman, and I get mad when it's warranted, but I don't go around looking for reasons to be offended every time someone tries to be funny. (And FYI, assuming it is a joke, I think it is funny.)

Most sensible suggestion yet. Edit: Um, meant for #9 but you both said essentially the same thing so it works.

We've been to Milestones on Cambie street in Vancouver many times and usually enjoy the food and service. This time was no exception, however the food seemed exceptionally delicious last night (May 11) They didn't appear to be very busy, perhaps because it was the day before Mother's Day. We dined on the balcony, overlooking Vancouver, with the coastal mountains framing our view. Despite the clouds, we were quite comfy under the heating lamps. My lamb shank was delicious - fall off the bone meat, accompanied by gnocchi in gorgonzola sauce and veggies. I often find the carrots too crunchy at Milestones and last night was no exception. Crunchy is good but when one has to saw and hack at the carrot, maybe a bit more steaming would be appropriate. Despite the struggle with the carrot, I enjoyed my meal very much. I will certainly have the lamb shank again. My partner had a steak with pepper corn sauce. Being a very discerning meat eater, B. said that his medium rare steak was the best he had ever had at Milestones and a good sized portion too. Some of the mountain of mashed potatoes were left on the plate along with some green beans I noticed. My plate was cleaned. We were happy and content with the service, despite our waitress bringing only one big knife to the table. We received the rest of our cutlery immediately after the dinner was served. Service was good, staff friendly and atmosphere comfortable. We will return as Milestones is a gem in our neighborhood.

Pub guide to the U.K. Amazingly, the thing that we miss the most about England is the pubs.

OWNERS of historic Esmeralda station homestead have witnessed first-hand the devastation of the "forgotten" wildfires of the Gulf country.
About 200 multimillion-dollar grazing properties have been ravaged - with more than 10 completely burnt-out.
Thousands of head of cattle have also been destroyed in the fires burning across far north Queensland.
They have burned a vast stretch of earth from the tip of Cape York, as far south as Hughenden and out to Mount Isa.
Queensland Fire Service officials estimate the sparsely populated zone covers more than one million square kilometres - 33 times the size of Belgium - but after nearly four months of firefighting, little relief is in sight.
The stately old homestead and outlying quarters of Esmeralda, a $40 million cattle station 120km south of Croydon dating back to the 1880s, was reduced to ash by a firestorm last month.
"We get forgotten all the time," said gutted Trisha Sheahan, owner of 398,600ha Esmeralda.
She lost her family home in the blaze, driven by scorching winds on a 40C day.
"We know we're a minority. We've just got to put up with what Mother Nature dishes out - floods, drought, bushfires - and get on with it."
Every day grazier Mary Dixon, 72, scans the sky for the anvil-headed clouds of the wet season.
Her family has run Bagstowe station, near the Styx River in the Gulf Savannah country, 1300km north of Brisbane, for 112 years and fought countless fires.
"It is touch and go," said Mrs Dixon, who had a fire up to her back gate for the first time in a decade.
"It does not even look like rain, and if you've got three-quarters of country burnt, it gets really serious."
On the latest 28-day forecast, there is no hope of rain.
Holly McMullen, 17, has spent every day as a volunteer firefighter since leaving school. Most of the land around her home at Millstream, 150km west of Cairns, has been affected.
"It's all a bit scary when there are wildfires," she said.
Atherton Rotary Club has organised fodder.
The region's federal MP, Rob Katter, flew to the worst-affected properties this week and described the mosaic of scorched earth as the state's "forgotten catastrophe".
"Eleven properties have 90 per cent or more burned out from roughly 213 properties affected by fires, with an average value of these businesses about $5 million," he said. He called on the State Government to heighten the disaster allowance for these properties to Category C "so that these people, animals and businesses can be kept alive".
"If there were 11 businesses in Brisbane of similar value affected by fire, plus a further 209 multimillion-dollar businesses affected, the situation would be branded catastrophic and the Government would be rushing to prop up its metropolitan supporters," he said.
The Federal Government has donated $100,000 to the Bendigo Bank appeal for the Gulf.

Vic Sage was an investigative journalist investigating Doctor Arby Twain's illegal activities, when Twain's former partner Aristotle Rodor (Sage's former science teacher) showed him Pseudoderm, a type of artificial skin with potential uses in the field of medicine. Acting on Rodor's suggestion, Sage fashioned the Pseudoderm into a featureless mask to conceal his identity, and tracked down Twain, forcing him to confess that he had been trying to illegally sell the untested and sometimes dangerous material. He continued to disguise himself as the vigilante known as "the Question" and was known for his ruthless attitude. He was an occasional ally of the Blue Beetle.
The Question participated in the Crisis on Infinite Earths.
- This version of Vic Sage (Earth-Four), including all history and corresponding appearances, was initially erased from existence following the collapse of the original Multiverse in the 1985–86 Crisis on Infinite Earths limited series. However the ending of Convergence retroactively prevented that collapse, saving all the alternate realities, though in an "evolved" form. Even though versions of the character may have since appeared, this information does not apply to those versions.

They say 5MP is coming soon, but Nokia already has one in their newest N95. The projectors are pretty neat, and there are some very high megapixel cameras for a point-and-shoot.Here's how to get the show:

Good Cheer
Good Cheer. Daily Text Book.
Published by Northern Publishing Office, Belfast, 120 pages.
Miniature devotional books were very popular in the nineteenth century. These widespread books numbered in the hundreds and were often extended to many editions and publishers, which included The Religious Tract Society and The American Tract Society. Handy because of their pocket size, these meditation books were used by missionaries, servicemen and other Christians for guidance and inspiration.
They were small in size, many were just over 2 by 3 inches. Some even smaller at just over 1 by 1 inch. They are described as having a 64mo size (2 X 3). The higher the number the smaller the book because it describes the number of times a large sheet of paper was folded. (The "mo" being part of the ending of the Latin word - sexagesimo-quarto.)

President Obama used his weekly address to highlight the steps his administration is taking to make America more competitive. As a result of the deals made with China this week, U.S. exports to China will increase by more than $45 billion and China will increase its investments in America by several billion dollars. These deals will support some 235,000 American jobs. Also, the President named GE CEO Jeff Immelt to head up the new Council on Jobs and Competitiveness, which will help find ways to grow the economy by investing in American businesses.
Remarks of President Barack Obama
The White House
January 22, 2011
Here's the truth about today's economy: If we're serious about fighting for American jobs and American businesses, one of the most important things we can do is open up more markets to American goods around the world.
That's why I met with China's President Hu Jintao at the White House this past week. We're now exporting more than $100 billion a year to China in goods and services. And as a result of deals we completed this week, we'll be increasing U.S. exports to China by more than $45 billion, and China's investments in America by several billion dollars. Most important, these deals will support some 235,000 American jobs. And that includes a lot of manufacturing jobs.
That goal is why I fought so hard to negotiate a new and better trade deal with South Korea -- a deal with unprecedented support from business and labor -- that will support more than 70,000 American jobs. And that's why I traveled to India last fall to help pave the way for $10 billion in new deals for American businesses and more than 50,000 new American jobs.
Now, these may just sound like statistics. But yesterday, I saw what that means firsthand when I traveled to a GE plant in Schenectady, New York. This plant is manufacturing steam turbines and generators for a big project in India that resulted from a deal we announced around that trip -- a project that's helping support more than 1,200 manufacturing jobs and more than 400 engineering jobs in Schenectady. Good jobs at good wages, producing American products for the world.
At the same time, GE has also been investing in innovation, building a clean energy center, an advanced battery manufacturing plant, and other state-of-the-art facilities in Schenectady that are resulting in hundreds of new American jobs and contributing to America's global economic leadership.
Leading the world in innovation. Opening new markets to American products. That's how we'll create jobs today. That's how we'll make America more competitive tomorrow. And that's how we'll win the future.
While I was in Schenectady, I announced that Jeff Immelt, GE's CEO and one of the most imaginative and visionary business leaders in America, has agreed to head up our new Council on Jobs and Competitiveness. The purpose of this council is to help us find ways to grow our economy by investing in our businesses here at home. And under Jeff's leadership, I'm confident that they'll generate good ideas about how we can spur hiring, educate our workers to compete in the 21st century, and attract the best jobs and businesses to America rather than seeing them spring up overseas.
We're living in a new and challenging time, in which technology has made competition easier and fiercer than ever before. Countries around the world are upping their game and giving their workers and companies every advantage possible. But that shouldn't discourage us. Because I know we can win that competition. I know we can out-compete any other nation on Earth. We just have to make sure we're doing everything we can to unlock the productivity of American workers, unleash the ingenuity of American businesses, and harness the dynamism of America's economy. Thanks everyone, and have a nice weekend.

Hellfjord Trailer (2012)
09 October 2012 210 mins
Please do not ask Sergeant Salmander about Gunnar. He loved that horse dearly and nobody feels worse about what happened to Salmander's noble steed than Salmander himself. Yes, he understands that there were children present at the Independence Day parade who may require significant, long term counseling to come to terms with what they witnessed that fateful day but still, he feels bad, okay? Sergeant Salmander's journey may begin with a horse in Oslo, but it ends with a posting in HELLFJORD – a tiny town in the ass end of Norway where Salmander will serve as the district sheriff for the three month notification period labor law requires before he is summarily fired from the police force. Can he save his job by doing an exceptionally good job during his months in the far north? Probably not, but he intends to give it all he's got.

In 1990, Bonfire was adapted into a film starring Tom Hanks as Sherman McCoy, Kim Cattrall as his wife Judy, Melanie Griffith as his mistress Maria, and Bruce Willis as journalist (and narrator of the film) Peter Fallow. The screenplay was written by Michael Cristofer. Wolfe was paid $750,000 for the rights. The film, however, was a commercial and critical flop.[11]

Iron will key to reviving Chinese steelmakers' fortunes
According to the State Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, sales at China's 37 major state-owned steelmakers jumped 20 per cent in the first 11 months of last year. Profits, however, hardly budged, rising just 0.4 per cent. With a price war looming, things are only going to get worse this year.
The trouble at China's steel mills is instructive. China's economic development is being powered largely by heavy investment in fixed assets - power stations, factories, transport links and the like. Building these uses a lot of steel, so, for years, making steel has looked like a good business to be in. As fixed asset investment has risen, so has investment in steelmaking capacity, and new mills have sprung up across China. Today, the country has 4,847 steelmakers.
Production has rocketed. In 2004, Chinese mills turned out 273 million tonnes of steel, more than the output in Japan, the United States and South Korea combined. Last year, production is likely to have hit 350 million tonnes. By next year, according to the China Iron and Steel Association, production capacity could reach 490 million tonnes.
Nervous of overheating, Beijing has attempted to crack down on investment. In 2004, the government imposed curbs on lending to new steel projects, and last year, it introduced measures intended to force consolidation.
Even so, new plants started before the restrictions came into force continue to come on stream and competition is becoming increasingly intense. With supply outstripping demand by tens of millions of tonnes a year, mainland steel prices have been sliding since April last year. For some products, including high-end cold-rolled steel, they have fallen more than 40 per cent.
The situation is only going to deteriorate this year. A new report from Fitch Ratings notes that investment has picked up again, with both Maanshan Iron & Steel and Angang New Steel winning approval for major new plants, each with capacity of five million tonnes a year. 'The gap between steel consumption and overall output is likely to continue to deteriorate,' says Fitch, warning of a looming price war.
Fresh price cuts will further hurt earnings. China's producers are already facing sharply higher raw material costs. Last year, international mining firms raised their iron ore prices by 71.5 per cent, and the price of coking coal also rose sharply.
All this makes consolidation more urgent than ever to eliminate inefficient excess capacity, achieve vital economies of scale in negotiations with suppliers and co-ordinate output across different product types. Consolidation is proving hard to achieve, however. According to the government's development plans, the country's 10 biggest steelmakers should account for 50 per cent of output by 2010, and 70 per cent by 2020. Today, they control only about 35 per cent.
As the Fitch report points out, many of China's smaller steel mills remain under the control of local and provincial governments. Reasonably enough, local officials are fiercely protective of both the jobs and the tax revenue steel works generate and are extremely reluctant to lose them to other municipalities or provinces through mergers and acquisitions.
What consolidation has taken place tends to be local. Fitch cites the merger last year of Liaoning-based Anshan Iron & Steel and Benxi Steel. But even here, there has been little meaningful effort to cut spare capacity and boost productivity.
With demand set to remain strong for years to come, the long-term outlook for China's steelmakers should be healthy. But without vigorous action to eliminate excess capacity, boost efficiency and ensure decent returns on investment, earnings growth remains elusive, no matter how fast the economy expands.

Cape Weligama
Stay 3 nights, pay for 2.
By Grace Smith | Published #71, Spring 2017
Set on a headland overlooking the Indian Ocean, this intimate resort is laid out like a traditional Sri Lankan village. The property contains eight gardens, each comprising two or three villas and its own 15-metre infinity pool in addition to the main 60-metre, adults-only pool curving around the cape. Guests can spend the day whale watching on the resort's luxury catamaran or exploring submerged shipwrecks before returning to their spacious suite (the smallest are 130 square metres), complete with a furnished outdoor verandah for relaxing or dining.
