Prize-winning authors Kim Chernin and Renate Stendhal talk about their groundbreaking, taboo-smashing toolkit for married and soon-to-be-married lesbians!
A guide book for every lesbian couple who has already tied the knot or is getting ready to walk down the aisle. This toolkit tells couples how to succeed in marriage and how to keep sex and romance alive "until death do you part."
After a cross-cultural relationship of 28 years, Kim Chernin and Renate Stendhal are now a married couple (and follow their own advice most of the time!)
Lesbian Marriage: A Sex Survival Kit is the latest of their pioneering work on women and sex:
Kim Chernin, Ph.D., is the author of 17 books and the recipient of an NEA grant for fiction. She has written the bestselling The Hungry Self, the classic In My Mother's House and the memoir My Life As a Boy. !
Renate Stendhal, Ph.D., has published several books, among them a relationship guide for couples, True Secrets of Lesbian Desire, and the award-winning photo-biography Gertrude Stein in Words and Pictures.

Silicone hydrogels based on a novel amphiphilic poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline)-b-poly(dimethyl siloxane) copolymer
A novel amphiphilic hydrogel based on poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline)-b-poly(dimethyl siloxane) (PMeOx–PDMS) block copolymer was developed. First of all, PMeOx–PDMS macromonomer was synthesized by coupling mono-hydroxylated PMeOx with PDMS followed by end-capping with methacrylate group. The structures of each step were characterized by NMR and titration. After that, silicone hydrogels were prepared by UV-initiated copolymerization of PMeOx–PDMS macromonomer with monomers such as 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate in the presence of a crosslinker. Measurements of the hydrogels' water contact angle, equilibrium water content, and tensile properties showed that the hydrogels possessed better hydrophilic surface, higher water content, and better ion permeability with the increase of the content of the macromonomer PMeOx–PDMS. Meanwhile, the tensile strength and Young's modulus of the hydrogels decreased slightly. Protein adsorption tests showed that the hydrogels had strong antifouling ability after the incorporation of PMeOx. This newly described hydrogel demonstrated attractive properties to serve as ophthalmic biomaterial. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2014, 131, 39867.

Ma'a Nonu stars for Highlanders on debut
Relevant offers
Super Rugby
Ma'a Nonu's value for the Highlanders was immediately on show this evening when his new team beat the Crusaders 38-21 in their pre-season match at Whitestone Contracting Stadium in Oamaru.
The big All Blacks second five-eighth, who will this season represent his third franchise after previously playing for the Blues and Hurricanes, scored a try, unleashed several trademark heavy tackles and created a few line breaks in his first appearance for the southerners.
Nonu played 65 minutes and was anything but a passenger despite his lengthy break over the summer as he formed a capable midfield partnership with Phil Burleigh.
While Crusaders coach Todd Blackadder elected to rest a number of his internationals, including skipper Kieran Read, Dan Carter, Sam Whitelock and Owen Franks, Highlanders boss Jamie Joseph had most of his stars on show.
Former All Blacks lock Brad Thorn completed 60 minutes, while loosehead prop Tony Woodcock was subbed after 50.
Unlike Joseph, who elected to retain the majority of his starting XV after halftime, Blackadder rotated his team and gave a chunk of his wider training group and academy players a run.
Nonu scored the opening try when he slammed through the Crusaders defensive line, leaving Israel Dagg - playing in the unfamiliar position of centre - grasping little more than oxygen and grass.
Next on the scoreboard was Nonu's nippy team-mate, fullback Buxton Popoali'i.
Having trailed first five-eighth Lima Sopoaga as he drifted wide, Popoali'i took the inside pass and cantered to the in-goal to put his team up 12-0 with the conversion to come.
Lock Luke Romano replied with two tries for the Crusaders, scoring each out wide on both sides of the paddock.
A fine burst up-field by rookie left wing Johnny McNicholl down the left flank led to the ball being quickly spat out the ensuing ruck, a number of quick transfers followed and Romano glided over in the opposite corner.
It was as if a negative had been flipped when Romano scored his second; the Crusaders slowly built momentum, kept the ball in hand and the All Blacks second rower was untouched as he cruised in.
Hosea Gear added the Highlanders third try in the 30th minute, completing a long-range effort that was started by a clever kick from midfielder Phil Burleigh.
Popoali'i was rewarded for his diligent chase and despite the attention of Crusaders fullback Tom Marshall he was able to release Gear who motored home to give his side a 19-14 lead at halftime.
Highlanders 38 (Hayden Parker 2, Ma'a Nonu, Buxton Popoali'i, Hosea Gear, Lima Sopoaga tries, Sopoaga 2, Parker 2 cons) Crusaders 21 (Luke Romano 2, Kieran Fonotia tries; Tom Taylor 2, Tyler Bleyendaal cons) HT: 19-14.

Well-drawn and laid out, indeed - and so much mayhem in the details! Not wallpaper for the breakfast room, if one has a shifty butler, but perhaps for the guest powder room, for shocking unwanted drop-ins and entertaining everyone else?

Either that, or emergency housing for those evacuated from their homes (can we get some 3D printers to whip up a batch for Queensland, Australia, please?)Whether they reside on land or water (shown below), his Arks could be assembled quickly and cheaply owing to its prefabricated structure. It'd be as green as possible, with a wind power generator, solar panels, and in the aquatic version's case, draw upon thermal water energy.

ESL Design Challenges
- Analog/RF and baseband/DSP/embedded teams often work in relative isolation in the design or HW validation phases, increasing the risk of time consuming and expensive iterations.
- Traditional single domain "point tools" have poor to no interaction with the real world and rely on mathematical models to capture real-world effects.
- Validating hardware after systems achieve hardware integration may mask critical design flaws and require complicated physical test benches for verification of final designs.
What's New
- Keysight Outlines its Commitment to the White House's PAWR Initiative

I was given Rapaflo and Jalyn in order to restore urinary function which, after about three weeks, is working fine now. I am now only taking Jalyn (about 7 weeks). My doctor wants me to stay on it or switch to finasteride for another six months. I do not like the side effects of these medications and would like to stop taking them. What are the risks if I stop, perhaps gradually.? Are there better drug choices?
I experienced benign prostatic hyperplasia as a result of anesthesia administered during surgery?

The United Nations Deputy Secretary-General, Jan Eliasson, today stressed the need to address the causes of piracy with a "multi-dimensional approach" to ensure the safety of seafarers, fishermen and passengers and avoid damage to the fishing and tourism industries.
"Piracy and armed robbery against ships is a global concern," Mr. Eliasson told the Security Council at UN Headquarters in New York, on behalf of Ban Ki-moon, during a debate on maritime piracy as a threat to international peace and security. "It affects the freedom of shipping and the safety of shipping lanes that carry about 90 per cent of the world's trade."
Togo Ambassador, Kodjo Menan, concurred that piracy was a true threat to international peace and security. In the Gulf of Guinea, the scourge remained a very worrying reality, given the methods used by pirates to carry out their plans. The Gulf was becoming increasingly dangerous, and attacks were often violent and well-planned. Additionally, there was evidence of links between piracy and other crimes in the area. It had been reported that funds gained were used to finance networks aiming to undermine States. The economic threat was significant, as port revenues were important for all the States concerned.
His country, he said, was therefore engaged in a national capacity-building programme with international assistance, allowing it to repulse an attack on a Panamanian vessel. There had also been progress in creating a regional plan and in organizing a regional summit in Cameroon in 2013. That effort must be supported, as it would result in a truly coordinated regional strategy. He endorsed further development of strategies to gain the speedy release of hostages and to assist their families. An improved judicial framework must also be established, and further international action should include knowledge sharing. The United Nations must play a central role in counter-piracy efforts and projects to protect the maritime environment in that context.

United States expected little, and got it, at world gathering
NEW YORK -- U.S. officials had low expectations for the current U.N. meetings, marked by anti-American insults heaped on President Bush, and have scant accomplishments to show so far.
The United States made few direct requests of other nations at the annual opening session and took minimal risks. Bush administration leaders did tone down the rhetoric that has played poorly abroad and refrained from criticizing the United Nations itself.
The approach reflected an attempt at rapprochement with countries still at odds with the United States on many levels, and acknowledgment that several of the administration's goals and initiatives for the Middle East, North Korea and elsewhere have stalled.
Unlike in years past, Bush's address to the General Assembly did not make waves. It was Iran's president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who attracted the rock star treatment and Venezuela's president, Hugo Chavez, who drew applause when he called Bush "the devil."
"It does reflect a dissatisfaction with American power and American dominance in the world, a distaste for the war in Iraq, and the general foreign policy of the Bush administration," said Edward Luck, a professor of international relations at Columbia University in New York and an expert on the United Nations.
A June poll by the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press found that America's image in 15 nations dropped sharply in 2006. Less than one-third of the people in Egypt, Pakistan, Jordan and Turkey had a favorable view of the United States According to that poll, America's continued involvement in Iraq was seen as a worse problem than was Iran and its nuclear ambitions.
U.S. officials dismissed the anti-Bush remarks as demagoguery and pointed to what they say is successful or promising engagement on issues including Mideast peace and the effort to end the violence in Sudan.
"I think we had a good week," State Department spokesman Sean McCormack said. "It was a good week for American diplomacy."
At best, however, it seemed more like a draw.
Iran probably was the biggest disappointment for Washington during the week.
The administration once hoped the session would be a turning point in the long standoff. But U.S. allies prevailed on the White House to back down, for now.
The U.S. had little choice: Its drive to impose any U.N. penalties against Iran has hit a wall and Iran so far has suffered no consequence for missing an August deadline by the U.N. to shelve its disputed nuclear work.
Over dinner with other Security Council diplomats in her suite at the Waldorf-Astoria hotel, Rice found herself reluctantly agreeing to give Iran some more time.
Rice said she has "great confidence" that the coalition she helped build against Iran remains committed to the U.N. demands and would move for penalties if Tehran balks.
"I am absolutely certain of that and we will do so," a slightly exasperated Rice told reporters Friday. "We want to give diplomacy its best chance, but I can assure you the time is not endless."
Associated Press writer Nick Wadhams at the United Nations contributed to this report.
EDITOR'S NOTE -- Anne Gearan covers foreign affairs and diplomacy, based in Washington.

Forgiveness is good for your heart: Study
London: Forgive and forget! The mantra could be the secret to good health, a new research has suggested.
Researchers from the University of California, San Diego, found that people who let go of their anger were less likely to see spikes in blood pressure, a newspaper reported.
It found that forgiveness could `lower reactivity` to stressful events and even offer `sustained protection` from the physical impact.
The study asked over 200 volunteers to think about a time when a friend had offended them. Half of the group were told to think about how it had angered them while the other half were encouraged to consider it in a more forgiving way.
The participants were then all distracted for five minutes after which they were told to think about the event again in any way they chose.
The participants were wired up to monitors, which took blood pressure and heart rate readings.
The team, led by Dr Britta Larsen, found the angry group saw the greatest increase in blood pressure compared to the forgiving group after the first ruminating session.
The effect was seen later on despite having the brief timeout period to calm down. However, there was no differences in heart rate.
The study which was published in the Journal of Biobehavioural Medicines.
A longer period high blood pressure or hypertension increases the risk of heart attack or stroke.

What is 'Business Ethics'
Business ethics is the study of proper business policies and practices regarding potentially controversial issues, such as corporate governance, insider trading, bribery, discrimination, corporate social responsibility and fiduciary responsibilities. Law often guides business ethics, while other times business ethics provide a basic framework that businesses may choose to follow to gain public acceptance.
BREAKING DOWN 'Business Ethics'
Business ethics ensure that a certain required level of trust exists between consumers and various forms of market participants with businesses. For example, a portfolio manager must give the same consideration to the portfolios of family members and small individual investors. Such practices ensure that the public receives fair treatment.
The concept of business ethics arose in the 1960s as companies became more aware of a rising consumer-based society that showed concerns regarding the environment, social causes and corporate responsibility. Business ethics goes beyond just a moral code of right and wrong; it attempts to reconcile what companies must do legally versus maintaining a competitive advantage over other businesses. Firms display business ethics in several ways.
Case Studies
In the case of a company that sells cereals with all-natural ingredients, the marketing department must temper enthusiasm for the product versus the laws the govern labeling practices. Some competitors' advertisements tout high-fiber cereals that have the potential to reduce the risk of some types of cancer. The cereal company in question wants to gain more market share, but the marketing department cannot make dubious health claims on cereal boxes, or it risks facing litigation and fines. Even though competitors, who have a larger market share of the cereal industry, use shady labeling practices, that doesn't mean every manufacturer should engage in unethical behavior.
Another case study involves quality control for a company that manufactures electronic components for computer servers. These components must ship on time, or the parts manufacturer risks losing a lucrative contract. The quality control department discovers a possible defect, and every component in one shipment faces checks. Unfortunately, the checks may take too long, and the window for on-time shipping could pass, and that, in turn, delays the customer's product release. The quality control department has the option of shipping the parts, hoping that not all of them are defective, or the company can delay the shipment and test everything. If the parts are defective, the company that buys the components might face a firestorm of consumer backlash, which may lead to the customer to seek another, more reliable supplier.
The National Business Ethics Survey comes out every two years. In the 2013 edition, respondents saw an all-time low in unethical behavior. Around 41% of employees saw misconduct on the job, compared to 45% in 2011. The survey concluded that possibly an uncertain economic climate led to less risk-taking in for-profit businesses leading more managers and executives to act more ethically. The survey found that 60% of misconduct on the job occurred among managers, and 25% of employees blamed senior-level managers for unethical behavior.

Interesting how Mr. Rosario doesn't investigate Mr. Zeno's background over the last 40 years.....investgations of illegal gambling, prostitution and not paying taxes in commonplace. How about the current IRS investigation? I would be interested to know the other side of the story.

If this business wants to really do the public proper then they should just move their proper to a place where weird black and hispanic people get their boots shined. Maybe Panama city in Panama.

>>>MAC is a public entity that naturally wants to maximize revenue to meet rising operating expenses while looking at ways to meet or take advantage of the shopping needs of the modern traveler. And face it: Who really gets a shoeshine anymore?
Most of the baggage-toting folks passing by Zeno's on Tuesday afternoon when I stopped by were wearing sneakers or fabric-looking footwear not amenable to a polish. In the summer, I suppose, there would be a sea of sandals and flip-flops. <<<
Hey Rosario. Report the NEWS. Who cares what YOU think?

#25 Dec 27, 2009
I work at the airport and used to have my shoes shined every Monday. Between Royal and a Latin woman on the E concourse, I kept them polished.(I started going to the woman when Zeno's grandson took the business over)
Well, thanks to the Bush economy and the CEO's that supported this creep, I make less money todat than I did 5 years ago and my price to live has risen dramatically in this BUSH economy.
So yeah, I gues is is Bush's fault. Poor shoe shine stands can't make it anymore because of the Bush Factor!
