It seems to make sense: If a child or teenager who is going through a growth spurt complains of leg pain, it's probably just "growing pains," right? But what exactly are growing pains? And if they are truly related to growth, a number of questions arise:
Whatever they are, the description of growing pains goes back a long way. The typical case is a child between the ages of 12 and 17 who develops mild to moderate (and occasionally intense) pain in the calves, shins, knees or thighs. The pain is often not confined to one spot or one area; it tends to affect the entire leg. Pain may be most severe at night and may intensify then for 10 to 15 minutes, but it is rarely debilitating. It does not typically prevent walking, running or participation in sports. There is no fever, redness of the skin, or swelling — in fact the legs and other areas of pain appear completely normal. These pains may last a few weeks or months but rarely become chronic. Then, as mysteriously as the pain appeared, it resolves. The Case For and Against "Growing Pains" There does seem to be something to the concept that during childhood, when growth is most rapid, pain in the most rapidly growing bones (the legs) is common. After puberty, at about the time that the most rapid growth is complete, the incidence of these pains is lower. The timing alone is proof enough for many that growing pains are related to growth, especially when no other cause of pain can be found. Pediatricians commonly use the term, though there is no clear consensus regarding its definition or cause. On the other hand, all healthy kids grow and not all of them have growing pains, so there must be some other contributor or explanation. In addition, there is no evidence that rapid growth or tall children have more growing pains than their shorter classmates. In addition, the pain tends to involve areas of the body where growth is not actually occurring: Growth plates tend to be near joints, while growing pains tend to be all over or in the front of the shins between the knee and ankle joints. A 1999 study reviewed the available research and concluded that "growing pains is an accepted medical term, though the pains are not due to growing" and a study in 2001 of children ages 12 to 18 found no correlation between pain and growth. Some experts believe "growing pains" are actually due to muscular injury, strain or even small tears that occur over the course of a child's activities. If this is the reason for growing pains, the actual injury is frequently not recalled. Recommended treatment is massage, ice or heat, and acetaminophen. Sometimes, ibuprofen, topical treatments (such as the IcyHot Medicated Sleeve or BenGay) are helpful. Once serious conditions are ruled out (see below), reassurance is also important. Whatever "growing pains" are, they are not dangerous. Children (and their parents) may privately worry a great deal about them, so learning that these pains are common and ultimately harmless can do a world of good for peace of mind. Bones grow during childhood by lengthening around the "growth plate," a special area near the ends of long bones that allows rapid addition of bone throughout childhood, with a rapid acceleration around puberty. Closure of growth plates in long bones that occurs toward the end of adolescence spells the end of bone lengthening. However, bones continue to thicken and remodel, especially when stress is applied, as, for example, during athletic activities. Injuries to the growth plate may cause serious problems in bone development. For example, if a child fractures a bone through the growth plate, that bone may not grow evenly, or it may stop growing prematurely. This is one reason that overuse or traumatic injuries to children can cause significant problems later in life. It's also why increasing attention is now paid to stretching, strengthening and conditioning prior to and during competitive sports, well before varsity high school and college sports programs begin. As far as we know, the growth plate is not a source of pain, even when it is at its most active. Unless there is an injury, normal lengthening of long bones is not a painful process. A number of conditions may cause leg pains in kids. Some of the most common are minor strains, sprains or other injuries. Although rare, serious conditions may begin with pain in the joints or legs, including:
These are usually accompanied by other symptoms such as pain that persists throughout the day, limping, fever, swelling, loss of appetite, fatigue, rash, the need to move the legs to relieve symptoms or other unusual behavior. These symptoms would not be expected to accompany "growing pains" and should prompt medical evaluation. For the vast majority of children, a review of symptoms and past medical problems, a thorough examination, and simple testing can identify these other causes. "Growing pains" occur in young people who are growing, but the pain is not clearly related to growth, and there is no clear disease present to account for pain. The notion of growing pains as a medical disorder directly related to bone growth is probably a myth, although these pains are common and their cause is uncertain. On the other hand, whether we call it "growing pains" or some other name is not the most important issue. The most important consideration is that a serious or even dangerous medical condition is not overlooked and that the pain is treated effectively. Remarkably, very little has been published in the medical literature on this common malady. Perhaps some day, additional studies will clarify the cause, but until then, "growing pains" may still be a useful name for pain occurring in growing kids, even if not truly related to their growth.

Ten Unforgettable Web Memes
Cats and failures highlight this list of the memes that have gone mainstream. Which ones did we miss?
- By Megan Gambino, Ryan R. Reed, Jesse Rhodes and Brian Wolly
- Smithsonian.com, April 18, 2011
In a 1977 episode of Happy Days, Arthur "The Fonz" Fonzarelli strapped on a pair of water skis and went up a ramp to jump over a shark. A decade later, University of Michigan student and future radio personality Jon Hein and some of his friends began debating the point at which their favorite television programs began to decline in quality, deciding that the shark episode epitomized the point when all shows enter a downward spiral. In 1997, Hein launched the website www.jumptheshark.com where online readers were invited to continue that same conversation. Fred Fox, the writer of that episode posted a passionate defense of the scene, pointing out that the series had continued success for a few more seasons. But the term "jump the shark" was quickly popularized and evolved to describe events in music, politics and sports. In 2006, "jump the shark" was admitted into the Oxford English Dictionary. When Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal hit theaters in 2008, a spin-off of the meme was coined, "nuking the fridge," describing the moment when Jones implausibly survives an atomic blast by hiding in a refrigerator. -- JR

Nice, comprehensive list - but so many of these have already jumped the shark. Good new examples of some very nice YouTube lists:

Posted by Simon Hawkin on August 24,2011 | 12:37 AM
I would say this is fairly comprehensive for a top ten, although I agree that the scare meme (which is similar to a Rick Roll) should have been included, and Win should have been included alongside fail. Overall this is a WIN. # I totally predicted that lion cub trick... LOL
Posted by Coop on June 5,2011 | 10:48 AM
Yeah guys, we know there's 6 billion other viral videos and memes, but the idea was to keep it at 10, and the 10 most famous, not every popular phrase or chunk of information that's ever been on the internet.
Posted by Matt on June 2,2011 | 09:19 PM
The unfortunate skier on Wide World was a jumper, not a downhiller. And according to my memory, the voice-over as he crashed on the in run and slid over the lip of the jump was "the human drama of athletic competition."
The oxymoronic "act of predetermined spontaneity" (in the description of "flash mob") ought to become a meme in itself!

You've left out the most important meme of all. J.R. "Bob" Dobbs. Rachel Maddow referred to him, and The Church of the Subgenius, as "Certainly in the top tier of nearly ubiquitous iconic 1990's era American urban street art." Still strong after more than 30 years you can't get much more viral than "Bob". http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=189126860809168021#

HOW could you leave out "Struttin Leo," Leo DiCaprio from "Inception," especially the one with the logo "Nobody just walks into Mordor," and there he is, with a huge grin on his face; there's also "Sad Keanu" and Micheal Cera prancing.

How Kevin O'Leary's exchange with Chris Hedges over Occupy Wall Street violates CBC Journalistic Standards (Part 2)
The following post is a slightly reworked version of the complaint I submitted to CBC concerning the behaviour of Kevin O'Leary during a an interview with Pulitzer Prize winning journalist Chris Hedges on October 6, 2011 on the Lang & O'Leary Exchange.
The complaint is premised on the assumption that as the Lang & O'Leary Exchange runs on CBC News, it is subject to the CBC's Journalistic Standards. If this assumption is incorrect, I would still argue that Mr O'Leary fails to treat his interviewee with a sufficient degree of respect.
For those who do not know the show, The Lang & O'Leary Exchange presents itself as business television show which aims to bring the 'biggest names' of the financial world to debate topical issues and generate 'thought-provoking coverage. In the show's description it alludes to the fact that the show's hosts (Amanda Lang & Kevin O'Leary) both have their own opinions and may indeed clash over topics. This format is obviously intended to adds the drama of reporting news and some producers may also justify this 'colourful' approach show as a means to generate controversy, discussion and, most importantly, an audience!
Despite the format, the manner in which Kevin O'Leary treated his guest Chris Hedges was not becoming of the high standards set by the CBC, is a direct violation of the CBC's Journalistic Codes and ultimately damaged the CBC's reputation.
Early in the exchange between O'Leary and Hedges, Hedges was allowed to make his point unimpeded (for a full transcript of see the Creekside blog). However, half way into the interview O'Leary initiates name calling and replies to Hedges' arguments by saying, "You sound like a left wing 'nut bar'…". Understandably, Hedges takes offence to O'Leary's bullying tactics and rightfully calls him out on it. The interview concludes on a low point with Mr Hedges asserting that he will no longer be willing to do interviews with the CBC.
The use of name calling is a rhetorical act of desperation deployed in an attempt to discredit one's character as opposed to the validity of one's arguments. I fail to see how the use of such bullying tactics deployed by O'Leary either draw on his 'expertise', or provide the audience with a greater understanding of the issues. Moreover, I fail to see how it could be retorted that the name calling was simply the expression of a 'provocative opinion' in a moment of 'passion'. It was an act of bullying and do not understand how it can be justified.
It is appreciated that a retort to this complaint could be that Mr O'Leary is a 'big personality' and the comments are part of his 'nature". However such a reply would not negate the need to maintain a respectful tone particularly during issues of disagreement. This is made all the more important given the CBC's role and mandate as a public broadcaster.
Mr O'Leary's actions are a direct violation of the CBC's commitment to 'fairness' and treating individuals with respect. The remarks of O'Leary also violate the CBC's commitment to balance. On the issue of balance, the CBC undertakes to "contribute to informed debate on issues that matter to Canadians by reflecting a diversity of opinion" and… "On issues of controversy, we ensure that divergent views are reflected respectfully, taking into account their relevance to the debate and how widely held theses views are". The issues around the Occupy Wall Street protests both matter to Canadians and are an issue of controversy. While it could be restored that the very act of having Chris Hedges on the show was a means to 'inform' Canadians about one perspective on Occupy Wall Street, there was a clear failure to handle the opinions expressed by Chris Hedges respectfully.
By having a show aired on CBC, Mr O'Leary has the duty to act responsibly and respectfully. In this instance, he has not only failed to live up to the standards set by the CBC but has clearly violated them to the detriment of the organization.
Given that the above text captures the thrust of my argument to the CBC, which has now been received by Jennifer McGuire, General Manager and Editor in Chief of CBC News, I look forward to (and will share here) the reply.
How to Complain to CBC about O'Leary's exchange with Chris Hedges about Occupy Wall Street
Recently, Rabble.ca drew a blog post from Creekside to my attention. The post offers a considered reflection on an exchange which took place on the CBC show between Lang and O'Leary Exchange. (I have recently added this post to my blog as well).
The exchange was between one of the show's hosts Kevin O'Leary, and Pulitzer Prize winner Chris Hedges focusing on the Occupy Wall Street (#occupywallstreet, #ows) protests.
While I will write about the show in more detail in another post, the point of this post is to encourage people, if you deem fit, to file a complaint with the CBC for Kevin O'Leary's manner in the interview as a clear violation of CBC Journalistic standards.
Complaints should be sent to the CBC Ombudsman and should be in writing with your name, address and telephone number. Note that the Ombudsman does not respond to anonymous complaints.
You must including the following information: Program Name: Lang and O'Leary Exchange on CBC Television, CBC News Network or CBCNews.ca. Air Date: October 6, 2011.
Be specific. When you feel a program or report was inaccurate, unfair or biased, please indicate how it was inaccurate, unfair or biased.
Complaints can be sent via email to the CBC Ombudsman.
Alternatively, complaints can be sent via snail mail to:
Kirk LaPointe
P.O. Box 500, Station A
Toronto, Ontario M5W 1E6
Via fax to: Fax: (416) 205-2825
Via telephone: (416) 205-2978
Wondering what the CBC Journalistic Standards are? Read them here:
We seek out the truth in all matters of public interest. We invest our time and our skills to learn, understand and clearly explain the facts to our audience. The production techniques we use serve to present the content in a clear and accessible manner.

Countryside Council for Wales Landscape & wildlife Please note - A new body, Natural Resources Wales has taken over all functions and services previously carried out by Countryside Council for Wales. While the Natural Resources Wales website continues to be developed, some online services will continue to be provided on this web site.
Wales' three National Parks contain some of the most spectacular landscapes in Britain.
National Parks are designated under national legislation to conserve the landscape and to protect their special qualities. They are living, working landscapes with active rural communities. National Parks support the local economy, as well as providing opportunities for recreation such as walking and cycling.
Management - Most of the land in National Parks is in private hands, so partnerships to encourage sympathetic management of the land are important.
Planning – Developments inside National Parks are more tightly controlled through the planning process, which recognises the need to protect and improve the area's special qualities. National Park Authorities have their own planning committees and decide on applications within their boundaries.
Partnership – Many organisations, public bodies and individuals are involved in the management of National Parks. Inside their boundaries there is often money and advice available for farmers, landowners and community groups. The National Park Management Plan and the plan-making process ensure a more joined-up approach to the areas' development.

When I was in high school, I knew I wanted to attend a college that had strong academics, recreational opportunities and lots of different ways to get involved. I also wanted to attend a university that was committed to the environment and the community, and I felt like all of these things were important at Mount Union.
German Careers
In Europe, more people speak German as their native language than any other, according to vistawide.com. In addition to Germany, German is an official language of Austria, Switzerland, Luxembourg and Liechtenstein, and it is the native language of a significant portion of the populations in other European counties. Learning the language can connect you to 120 million native speakers around the globe. Many people also learn German as a second language, as it is the third most popular foreign language taught worldwide and the second most popular in Europe and Japan, after English.
The German major at Mount Union will not only prepare you with the speaking, listening and writing skills of the language, but it also focuses on several different aspects of the German culture and literature. In addition, you'll gain an understanding of the careers and professions available to German majors and spend a period of time living and learning in a German-speaking country, experiencing the culture first hand. You'll truly be prepared for success in a number of fields.

Although I was there, I can't tell you much about the events of Sept. 11, 2001, that you don't already know. After all, you had CNN; I only had my two eyes and the prescription lenses I thankfully remembered to grab as I fled the apartment. Yes, I watched from a few blocks away as the towers fell, but without the benefit of a zoom lens or slow motion video (thank God for that -- there was nothing that I saw I wished to see again or in greater detail).

Best place to do lunch inside Chittenden County (retired cat.)
Leunig's Bistro & Café
Winner: 2009.
- 115 Church Street, Burlington, VT, 05401
- 802-863-3759
- http://www.leunigsbistro.com
There's no better people watching in Vermont than on Burlington's Church Street Marketplace, and Leunig's allows patrons to soak up the scene in style. Jazz, cocktails and cozy French favorites only add to the ambiance.
It's not all Euro at the 29-year-old eatery. Although Chef Donnell Collins still dishes up classics such as Escargot Maison and Croque Monsieur, she gets creative, too. The lunch menu includes a house-made black-bean burger and, even more unusual, strawberry-and-cashew-crusted salmon with a drizzle of vanilla bean crème fraîche.
Known for personally greeting customers at the door, General Manager Bob Conlon presides over the front of the house with a smile, and ensures that the eatery gives back to the community by participating in fundraisers for worthy causes. Leunig's isn't just a place to grab lunch; it's a package deal.

Nails at home: six new polish collections get put to the test
Is it worth doing your nails at home if you want funky nail art? We sampled a half-dozen new lacquers, from magnetic snakeskin to matte glitter, to find out.
Tue Jan 22 2013

But which ones let amateurs pull off cool nails at home, and which should be left up to beauty experts at local salons? Time Out tested six contenders to find out what's worth your time (and cash).

With the optional Porsche Entry & Drive, you can leave your car key in your pocket. As soon as you grab the door handle or approach the luggage compartment, the system automatically checks the encrypted access code on the key. Once the key is validated, the door or the luggage compartment lid unlocks. The engine can then be started and switched off using the electronic ignition switch.
To lock the vehicle, you simply press the button on the outside of the door handle. Porsche Entry & Drive then locks the vehicle and activates the engine immobiliser and steering column lock.

So, I thought it's about time I showed you mine.
First the French. They're not mine, but I painted them for a buddy of mine. There's 2 in th epics, but I've finished three of them.
And then, in the Red Corner:
59th (2nd Nottingham) Regiment of Foot:
27th (Inniskilling) Regiment of Foot.
24th (2nd Warwickshire) Regiment of Foot.
And because I can: FORM SQUARE!

Very very nice wall lamp
I purchased this wall boom for a sconce position 80" high that existed next to my client's home office desk. It's a great looking fixture, easy to install and very effective. It only takes 60W max so it's not the brightest room light but really great secondary light in space. By:Francis T. , Designer (New Yoek City)
Worth the looooong wait!
This fixture looks super and is very well constructed. Everything is adjustable and locks in to the position you want nicely. The light quality is beautiful. Waited 3 months for delivery which was a drag. But, worth the wait. By:Amy S. (Merion, PA USA)

It may have been the ugliest win that Alex Rawa, Matt Campanella and their senior teammates had experienced in their five seasons together. But it was also their most beautiful.
Points were hard to come by but the Falcons scored just enough of them to win a county title as No. 2 Locust Valley held on for a 27-24 win over No. 4 Cold Spring Harbor in the county Class B boys basketball final Saturday night at LIU Post.
Rawa is one of many seniors on Locust Valley who have been playing basketball -- and lacrosse and football -- together since eighth grade. They capped their senior seasons as county champions.
"We didn't shoot the ball well; it was an extremely ugly game," Rawa said. "But when you win, none of that stuff matters. I've been waiting for this moment my whole life. This means everything to me."
Chris Appell hit two free throws to put Locust Valley ahead by three with 21.4 seconds remaining. Cold Spring Harbor had one last opportunity to tie the score on an inbounds play under the hoop, but Luke O'Connell's fading corner three came up short.
Campanella had nine points to lead Locust Valley. Rawa and Joe Gilio each had eight.
With Cold Spring Harbor looking to take its first lead of the game in the final minute, Locust Valley's Bradley Conn blocked an outside jumper and Josh Brown, who led the Seahawks with eight points, couldn't convert on a turnaround as the shot clock expired.
Ben Jay had cut the Locust Valley lead to three after converting a three-point play to make it 25-22 with 4:10 remaining. O'Connell later made a spin move to create some space and hit a fadeaway to cut the lead to 25-24 with 2:22 left.
"It was really nerve-racking," Campanella said. "But for what we didn't get on offense, we made up for it with great defense."
Rawa scored six of his eight in the first quarter and Gilio hit a baseline floater to open the second quarter as Locust Valley took a 14-5 lead. Cold Spring Harbor's Josh Brown answered with a layup and Bobby Vavassis followed with a putback to help cut the Locust Valley lead to 16-10 at the half.
The loss brought an end to the unexpected run by Cold Spring Harbor. It started 0-7 but qualified for an outbracket game against Wheatley, which CSH won by one point, then upset seven-time defending county champ Malverne in the semifinals.
"I told the guys, just get us in the playoffs and then we're playing with house money," Cold Spring Harbor coach John Cartwell said. "It's been a good run. It's one of those seasons that you hate to see end."
Locust Valley plays Center Moriches in the Long Island championship at 7:30 p.m. March 6 at Farmingdale State.
"It's just a summarization of these kids and how hard they've worked," Locust Valley coach Tim Lomot said. "To win a county championship, it's great for the whole community. It shows the younger kids around Locust Valley that we can play basketball around here."

One of our clients wants to hire us for writing a complex custome software. We wants to build this on a proprietary library we wrote which abstracts lot of the complexity of the target platform. We are a startup and we agreed to put this library in an escrow so client can get access to it if we go down. We will be providig the source code for the custom software we are coding. But the client who does not understand software licensing and pricing models is confused about all this. They want the source code for our propreitary library too we have spent ovew six months building and perfecting and that we have licensed to other clients. They know they are new to all this and are open to looking at publicly available case studies. Any advice on how to approach this?
The advice I received once for a similar situation was to put as much "legal" distance between your custom software development and the underlying product. If the library is a bona fide product, available to public, with its own website and client list, there is little argument that you shall not give the right to the software. A good example of a company in this position is dhtmlx.com which makes, in my view, the best UI framework for web-based business systems. In addition to that, they do custom software development. However, the nature and the size of their product and the number of uses leaves little doubt that about code ownership for the custom systems. As a last resort, you can agree to license the source code to them, ie:
| |||||||||
You should explain to them that the software you are writing is based on a commercial component that you have developed and you are including only an object code license to it. Then provide a price on acquiring the source code which is additional. This allows them to make a business decision on whether they actually need the source code. When we use libraries we often ask the vendor to add in a clause that gives us the option, for a price, to purchase the source code. We do this because someday we might have to port it to a platform the vendor does not want to support. This gives us a level of comfort. This is another way to give the customer the secure feeling they need without having to come up with more money up front. In general, understand there could be reasons they want the code you did not think of yet so just ask them, provide them options and you'll get through it. | |||||

Primarily skin. I find that the scent always seems more satisfying when applied this way.
Primarily skin. I find that the scent always seems more satisfying when applied this way.
On the skin and sometimes in the hair.
Franki [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]
Here\'s an experiment to help you decide.
Apply your usual phero/cologne mix to a piece of paper, and the same mix to the back of your hand. As time passes notice the difference in the paper smell versus your hand. After several hours you\'ll really see a difference,with the skin application gradually converting to other chemicals. The next morning the two smells will probably be completely different.
Pheros are steroids naturally produced by your skin, and they are bacteria food. Bacteria changes pheros into other chemicals (sometimes other pheros we are familiar with!), which obviously changes the scent. People have different bacteria colonies on their skin, and women and men also tend to have different bacteria varieties, so results are unpredictable. In general the bacteria metabolizes the pheros toward a more smelly mix.
You may like that. Or, if you like the mix to remain more stable (like the experiment with the paper application) then apply to clothing or hair. Hair happens to be an excellent broadcaster of pheros (your body hair is designed to distribute the pheros produced naturally in your apocrine glands - the hair and glands appear/activate at puberty).
I apply on clothing/hair/skin depending on the situation. I almost always apply my combo to my hand so I can easily check how my other skin applications are doing through the night, and refresh with cologne if necessary.
I also use antibacterial soap to try and keep the bacteria load down on my skin. Pheros are great bacteria food, and phero-wearers are feeding the bacteria on their skin like growing a culture in a dish! I read a study that showed antibacterials kept the underarm odor down cause it inhibited bacteria metabolism of steroids into smellier steroids and acids.
Skin... and on rare occasions, hair.
That said, they get on my clothes since I can smell them in my closet.
I sometimes wonder if the rapid scent change on the skin is due in a larger part to faster dispersal of the scent component, leaving the more smelly components exposed. On clothing, the scent lasts longer, and you wouldn\'t notice the pheros becoming unmasked within 24 hours.
Run the hand/paper experiment mentioned above, only with pheros-only and no cologne. That will tell you if the pheros themselves are changing on your skin, or if scent-change was only a function of cologne-loss rates.
I\'ve done that, and I think the pheros really change - which jives with the literature about apocrine metabolization. But you might want to verify for yourself since it\'s so easy...
Well, unfortunately those of us who can\'t smell the pheros well will have problems evaluating this experiment. So, which areas do you feel causes more conversion? A lot of people have been saying arms, but I wouldn\'t have thought that arms would have much bacteria.
I couldn\'t really say which areas are worst for phero conversion, but I would speculate the following would be bad:
>Moist areas like armpit/pubic/etc. would be the worst for promoting bacteria colonies. The stuff I was reading about human odor was written about the armpit, which I assume is worst case.
>Areas where phero-eating bacteria naturally live on your body. (Again I\'m speculating) that the varieties of phero-converting germs would tend to thrive where your body naturally produces the most phero steroids. This would be where the apocrine scent glands are concentrated: armpit, pubic, chest/belly/navel, around the mouth, eyelids, outer ear, and anywhere heavy body hair is produced.
Anywhere else is probably less severe. But it would also have to do with gender (women and men tend toward different types of skin bacteria) and individual differences.
Experience has taught me that even on my hand, freshly scrubbed with germkiller, that pheros convert after a few hours. Apparently the bacteria get pretty deep in the pores and you can\'t really exterminate them - and when you splash on their favorite food (pheros) they go wild.
I wouldn\'t worry too much about it - if you can\'t smell pheros at all just be conservative with dose, and refresh with your cologne after a few hours. I LOVE Bobby Jones EDT for great staying power it doesn\'t really blend well with pheros but seems to blot their smell out entirely if you mix it just right. Great fresh scent (I don\'t like heavy musky smells), and after 12 hours last week it was still covering, and my gf said it smelled great.
Have you tried repeated regular daily sniffing of pheros to gain detection? I read a study where everyone in the study group that couldn\'t smell none was successfully converted into a none-smeller just by letting them sniff it a lot try spraying it on paper first and letting it dry to eliminate the alcohol.
The whole subject about phero-conversion is kinda weird/fascinating. Our scent (apocrine) glands activate at puberty when body hair appears, and the hairs are wicks to help broadcast the pheros produced by the glands. But the secretions interact with individual skin bacteria to produce different blends of scent on each of us. I remember reading Che Guevarra\'s classic book Guerilla Warfare, where he described fighting in tropical conditions for weeks without bathing. He said the men became accustomed to each other\'s signature scent and could identify individuals at night without sight - part of a identity-signaling mechanism for individuals in social groups?
I understand the apocrine glands are innervated and wired to the parts of the brain responsible for sexual arousal and fear/fight/flight. I speculate that the fresh secretions released in those situations are useful in those situations, and later the individual conversion by personal bacteria could produce other effects (identification signaling?). Personally I want to avoid a signature stench, and only approximate the fresh blend that signals sexual arousal. In other mammals anyway the phero-detecting system is complex enough to interpret and process blended proportions of pheros, and one study said the human VNO has 3 receptor types, enough to process info about blends
If we producing many sweat, what is your suggestion.
applying before wet/after shower, or it is OK to apply when we produce many sweat or better to apply in cloth (because I read that sweat can reduce the phero.
And do you suggest same area to apply: behind ear and wrist
or you suggest another area such as Hair, chest, throat, etc.
Apply after your shower. Otherwise you will wash some off in the shower.
If you want your mones to last longer, stay away from areas that get hot, like armpits, pubic area, and inside clothing.
Apply everywhere!!! Try something new every day. You might just surprise yourself.
I use both skin and clothing application simultaneously.
A-None mix on skin, A-Nol (with/without A-Rone) mix on clothes.
And I\'ve recently been using a drop of A1 in hair gel as well.
Given just one choice of application point, it would be skin.
Given one phero choice, it would be A-None, specifically NPA.
Oscar [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]
I like to apply -none on the chest or on my shirt, also the chest area. I feels good to know that I actually have it on my body, but I really like it on the shirt. I have had some good hits late in the evening when going home, which is more than 12 hours after application with no refreshing. At those times I know I had a pretty good dose on the front of my shirt. I was thinking the shirt application was repsonsible for the good hits so many hours later, but I could be wrong. Maybe the funky stuff going on on my skin was responsible? Also, maybe it was both together. I have tried skin only, and shirt only, and though I wasn\'t really methodical about observsing things, it seems to me that some of my best hit days were when I applied on skin and clothing.

Pears are loved around the world. But they are originally from Asia, and have been cultivated there for at least 3000 years. So it's only logical to savour them with an organic Japanese green sencha. Our blend also contains marigold blossoms and apple, for a sweet, crisp, beautiful tea. It's perfect for dessert, or as an afternoon treat with a little something sweet.

My good friend lives here. The building has free coffee and the door men are friendly and get friendlier the more often you go. The other tenants are pretty bougie and beige, but it's in a great part of town so the compromise is understandeable.
I love this building!! The views ...
I love this building!! The views are amazing...and all the in-apartment appliances and building facilities are modern and clean. The best part is the huge walk-in closet!! I've lived in NYC and DC and have never experienced anything like this for such a reasonable price. Oh, and it's dog friendly! While the parking lot is super teeny

Based on many factors, the rental rates (including specials and discounts) and availability can actually change not just daily, but hourly, if not even more quickly. While our advertisers do take steps to keep their information current, the rental rates or availability you may find here now at ForRent.com may not be the same as when you contact the communities.
