Mickey Thompson, offroad legend
Like many pre-pubescent Baby Boomers with nothing but cars on the brain, my first exposure to Mickey Thompson was at the local hobby shop.
There, amongst the vast stack of plastic scale-model kits was the Challenger 1. It was a bright blue streamliner that took on the land-speed record with four V8 engines. According to the blurb on the box, this wild-looking oddity, driven by a crew-cut fellow named Mickey Thompson, reached a top speed of more than 406 mph on the "salt flats" of Bonneville, Utah.
For some reason, I passed on buying that particular kit, but that Challenger 1 model fascinated me for years. Every time I saw one on display I tried to imagine how the guy with the buzzed hair (like mine) and the big toothy grin came to create such an incredible machine.
As it turns out, Marion Lee Thompson, better know as Mickey, was obsessed with Bonneville well before he had a driver's license. At about age 8, his father took him to the salt flats to watch Englishman John Cobb, then holder of numerous speed records, make a run in his Napier-Railton Special. From that moment, Mickey was hooked. Not just on Bonneville as it turned out, but on virtually every form of automotive competition.
His early obsession, however, was Bonneville. His quest for speed in the middle of nowhere began in earnest in his early 20s when he drove a specially modified Modified Ford Bantam coupe to a class record of 194 mph in 1952. The fact that the car sported two V8 engines seemed to point the way to Thompson's future.
Eventually, with the high-powered assistance of some executives at Pontiac, Thompson's Bonneville dream car began to take shape. The end result was the Challenger 1, an aluminum-skinned beauty that contained four gleaming 389-cubic-inch Pontiac V8 engines - positioned in two rows at the front of the car - with the driver's cocoon-like cockpit perched in the rear.
After more than a year of trial and error, The Challenger 1 finally reached the unofficial mark of 406.6 mph, breaking John Cobb's mark of 403 mph set in 1947.
Unfortunately, the top speed set by Thompson was not officially recognized by the sanctioning body for land-speed records.
Under the rules, a car must achieve a two-way average speed across a measured distance (the return trip must be completed within an hour of the first run) to be eligible for the record. Since the Challenger 1 failed to do this, the speed established by Thompson never made it into the record books. However, the hoopla generated by this relative unknown hot-rodder, not to mention the widely distributed model kit, turned him into a genuine racing legend.
Although robbed of the land-speed record, Thompson did manage to set more than 500 official national and international speed and endurance records at Bonneville and they will always be his enduring claim to fame. But his interests also extended to just about every type of motorsports imaginable. He competed in the six-cylinder class at the 1953 Carrera Panamericana endurance race in Mexico.
He also drove in a number of sports car races in California and competed in both sprint cars and midget-class racers. In drag racing, Thompson was the first person to exceed 100 mph on a quarter-mile track and he also invented the "slingshot" dragster, a tubular-framed affair where the driver was squeezed inside a roll cage located behind the rear axle. The oversized and treadless rear "slick" tires used by these cars were also a Mickey Thompson creation, and are still referred to as "sticky Mickeys" today.
Amazingly, Thompson's exploits didn't stop there. He shared the driving duties one year at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, France, but failed to finish. He also raced motorcycles on all sorts of tracks, including pavement, dirt and ice.
In the early 1960s, his attention turned to Indianapolis Motor Speedway and the Indy 500.
For the event he developed a radical-looking rear-engined car that weighed less than 1,000 pounds and ran with short-but-wide 12-inch wheels. In 1963, the now-legendary Dan Gurney drove the car but failed to finish. The following year, Indy rookie Dave MacDonald spun out of control in a horrific first-lap crash into the side of veteran driver Eddie Sachs. The resulting fireball killed both drivers.
The press seemed to place blame for the incident squarely on Thompson and his strange-looking car. As Car and Driver magazine remarked in its race synopsis, "Hopefully, we have seen the last of Mickey Thompson at Indianapolis," and referred to his race car as "ill-conceived and ill-prepared."
Regardless of the criticism, many of Thompson's innovations in Indy Cars as well as in other forms of racing were quickly emulated by other teams and drivers, and led to the formation of a number of companies that continue to market numerous speed and racing accessories.
After one more attempt at the land speed record in 1968 (using Ford power this time to reach another unofficial speed of 425 mph), Thompson returned to drag racing as well as off-road events, capturing the grueling Baja 1000 in 1984 at age 55.
Tragically, Mickey Thompson, along with his wife, were gunned down outside their home one morning in 1988. It took nearly 20 more years to solve the case, which has been the subject of several high-profile TV shows. But in all that, it's important to remember what Thompson accomplished and the type of automotive pioneer he was.
With a clearer understanding of the man and his contributions to the sport, I still scan the store shelves for the Challenger 1 model I regret not buying when I had the chance so many years ago.

Winds and ice stop Northwest Passage journey
The four men stopped rowing when they reached Cambridge Bay, Nunavut
Beavers and jet skis surprised four adventurers on their recent attempt to row through the Northwest Passage. Vancouver, British Columbia residents Kevin Vallely, Paul Gleeson, Frank Wolf and Denis Barnett are now back home after the team stopped short of its goal of gliding through the northern waterway on muscle power.
After ever-changing winds stalled their 25-foot rowing pod enough to put them weeks behind schedule, the four men stopped rowing when they reached Cambridge Bay, Nunavut. Their original goal was to transit the Northwest Passage from west to east, beginning at Inuvik, Northwest Territories, and finishing at Pond Inlet, Nunavut, on the east coast of Baffin Island. Cambridge Bay is about as far from Pond Inlet as Denver is from Washington, D.C.
"We were way behind schedule after the first month," Wolf said on the phone from Vancouver just before biking downtown to be interviewed by a CBS news reporter. "Heavy winds didn't allow us to move very far."
The team's trip began July 5, as the men rowed the MacKenzie River toward the sea from Inuvik. They stopped when they reached Cambridge Bay on August 28. Their completed trip length was like rowing from Fairbanks to Anchorage three times.
Before the trip, the travelers heard about prevailing northwesterly winds that at times helped them move their bulbous 25-foot craft powered by two oarsmen at 8 kilometers per hour. But they experienced frequent wind changes that stopped their progress and often made them pull for shore, where they would wrestle their one-ton boat into the shallows.
"There was so much erratic wind from all directions," Wolf said. "The prevailing northwesterly did not exist. The Native hunters we met said it used to be consistent, but now there are two to three wind changes per day."
Wolf, a videographer who has recorded many expeditions, including a winter bike trip from Dawson City in the Yukon to Nome, interviewed locals all along the path of this trip. He said climate change was a frequent theme of their discussions.
"The deputy mayor in Tuktoyaktuk told us that even though there are no trees there, beavers have moved in and have been damming up local rivers (with driftwood)," Wolf said. "We saw one swimming in the ocean."
Wolf also filmed a grizzly bear on Victoria Island and, one day, strange pinpoints of light approaching. The lights belonged to four jet-ski watercraft, ridden by American men making an attempt at riding around the world. Their trip is part of a reality TV show, Dangerous Waters.
On September 6, less than a week after the rowers met the jet-skiers near Cambridge Bay, the crew of the Canadian Coast Guard Icebreaker Sir Wilfred rescued the American jet-skiers and their support boat, trapped in thick ice between Cambridge Bay and Gjoa Haven.
"Even those guys with all their power, speed and money couldn't conquer the ice," Wolf said.
The ice-clogged passage from Cambridge Bay northward was the result of a late continuation of the ice season and the vagaries of where wind blows ice, Wolf said.
"The people in Paulatuk didn't get freeze-up in their bay until last October," he said. "Winter was the same length for them, but it sort of started in March and got pushed into the summer season. There's this perception we were stopped by ice, but it was just a shift of the season rather than a return to the Ice Age."
"Ice wasn't the critical element slowing us down," team leader Kevin Vallely said from Vancouver. "It was the wind. Even though this year is going to be the sixth-lowest ice extent (in the satellite era), this year a lot of it got blown into the (Canadian) Archipelago."
As of September 18, researchers at the National Snow and Ice Data Center in Boulder, Colorado, had not yet announced the official end of the northern sea ice melt season, but did say that the Northwest Passage was more clogged with ice this year than any since 2007.

If a Kentucky state lawmaker gets his way, drivers in the state would be required to keep their hands off their phones.
Rep. Tom Burch, D-Louisville, has filed a bill for consideration during the 2008 session that would ban hand-held cell phone use while driving. Talking on a phone equipped with a "hands-free" device would still be permitted.
The bill would make it a secondary offense to drive while using a hand-held phone – meaning a person would have to be pulled over for another violation before they could be ticketed for talking on the phone. First-time offenders would receive warnings. Repeat offenders would face fines between $20 and $100.
Emergency phone calls and use of CB radios would be exempted.
Supporters of limiting driver distractions point to figures from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The agency contends that "distractions," such as cell phones, contribute to as many as 30 percent of all traffic wrecks.
However, more studies show that hands-free and hand-held phones are equally distracting. Opponents of cell phone restrictions also say that talking on cell phones is no more distracting than eating, drinking or changing radio stations while driving.
Others say lawmakers shouldn't be restricting people in their vehicles.
Currently, Connecticut, New Jersey and New York have the only statewide laws restricting cell phone use in vehicles. In 2008, California and Washington are slated to implement their own rules.

U.S. Deputy Secretary of Defense William J. Lynn has verified the occurrence of a 2008 security breach where a USB stick was used on a U.S. military laptop at a base in the Middle East. Saying that today more than 100 foreign intelligence organizations are trying to hack into American military digital networks, Lynn suggests that the Pentagon has finally recognized the disastrous threats posed by cyberwarfare.
According to Secretary Lynn, the attack was initiated when an infected flash drive was inserted into the military laptop during operations at an unspecified location in the Middle East. The malicious computer code, placed there by a foreign intelligence agency, then uploaded itself onto a network run by the U.S. Central Command.
"That code spread undetected on both classified and unclassified systems, establishing what amounted to a digital beachhead, from which data could be transferred to servers under foreign control. It was a network administrator's worst fear: a rogue program operating silently, poised to deliver operational plans into the hands of an unknown adversary," said Lynn.
Secretary Lynn described this previously classified incident as the most significant breach and wake-up call of U.S. military computer use ever. The Pentagon's operation to counter the attack, known as Operation Buckshot Yankee, is said to have marked a turning point in U.S. cyberdefense strategy.
The full article was published by the Council on Foreign Relations.

Sweet EmmaLou, Golden Destroyer has had some health issues of late. The most annoying one (for all of us) is a stomach problem — she has issues with digesting her food and she burps louder and longer than a longshoreman. Poor Em!
She willingly went to the vet's because she likes it there. I don't like it at my doctor's office, but I'm not a dog. Anyway, the vet is aware of the issue; Em's been on meds prior to this visit. But, the problem returns. He suggests obtaining a blood sample, giving her her annual shots (which were due), refilling her heartworm and flea prevention meds, and oh, here's a plastic tray…please get a sample of her urine.
Excuse me?
This morning bright (well, actually it was dark) and early, the whole family goes out to the backyard to obtain a pee sample from EmmaLou. I was on leash and flashlight duty; Devoted Spouse had the little (and I do mean little) plastic tray at the ready. Em sniffs around, squats down, I yell at Devoted Spouse, "NOW!", he slides the tray under her and EmmaLou jumps straight up in the air taking her precious pee with her.
Take Two: "C'mon sweetie puppy girl…pee in the cup." Yes, dogs can get a hateful look on their faces. Finally she squatted again and we repeated the above exercise. It didn't work the second time, either.
Devoted Spouse took EmmaLou out on her morning walk, where she peed like someone who's had their bladder stopped up for a month. Peed all up and down the street. Did we get a sample? No…forgot the tray.
While running errands, I stopped in the vet's office. They laughed and laughed but finally agreed I could bring her up late in the day and THEY would try the little plastic tray trick.
EmmaLou and I, meanwhile, have decided we should never speak of this barbaric intrusion into her personal life again. Sigh…

I started Indian Land School in 1957 and finished in 1969. I was sad to hear of Mr. W.P. Leaphart passing.
A lot of newcomers I'm sure don't know, but this man was the best of the best in what he did and guided a lot of students as he was a great teacher.
His knowledge was vast. He was a soft-spoken man who could point you to the correct way to do tasks. He was always helpful to the community as he ran the cannery in summer and taught adult classes in welding, small engines, etc.

Adam & Eve survived obscenity charges and protests to become mainstream
For years, it was always something – a government raid, obscenity charges, citizen protests. If Adam & Eve was in the news, you could guess the reason: Somebody didn't like what the adult entertainment company was selling.
But those were the old days – the 1980s and '90s. Seven months ago, an Adam & Eve boutique arrived in Charlotte's South End with an array of pleasure products so high-tech and stylized that you could mistake them for totally different objects – a thumb drive, a lipstick, a surrealistic paperweight. When the South Boulevard store announced its presence on interstate billboards, no one said a word.
Adam & Eve's journey is improbable but instructive. Examine the evolution of this North Carolina company – from mail-order condom seller to federal obscenity target to purveyor of upscale sex toys – and you'll see the vast distance America has traveled, sexually speaking, over the past four decades.
In the beginning, Phil Harvey, an idealistic UNC Chapel Hill School of Public Health student, launched a mail-order condom company as part of his graduate thesis. That was in 1970.
Today, Adam & Eve, one of the nation's largest adult-product companies, promotes its inventory as part of a healthy lifestyle, much like Dr. Oz extols dietary fiber. "Happier couples," says a sexologist on Adam & Eve's home shopping show, "are healthier couples."
Along the way, Harvey notched numerous accomplishments. He won accolades as a champion for civil liberties. He helped make America less sexually squeamish. And he achieved his original goal, the one that prompted his condom business: He provided birth control to millions of people in developing nations.
Accidental porn king
Harvey, educated at Phillips Exeter Academy and Harvard, never planned to sell erotica. He'd enrolled at UNC after five years in India, where he fed children for CARE. The experience convinced him that affordable, accessible birth control could alleviate more suffering than hunger programs.
At UNC, he sought a way to get birth control into the hands of more people in the developing world. Though a 19th-century federal law forbade sending contraceptives through the mail, he took a risk. He and fellow classmate Dr. Tim Black, a physician with similar family planning interests, launched their condom company to test whether people would buy contraceptives by mail.
They would, it turns out. Ads appeared in college newspapers, and orders streamed in. Soon, Harvey was making money, which he hadn't expected.
Before long, he had two companies – the business known as Adam & Eve and a nonprofit that sold contraceptives below cost in developing countries. Harvey, who says he was never interested in accumulating wealth, began donating some of his profits from Adam & Eve to the nonprofit.
But selling half-gross boxes of Trojan condoms to fraternities, Harvey suspected, wouldn't keep Adam & Eve growing. So he tried out more sex-related products – books, magazines, lingerie – and also general merchandise – belts, model ships, digital watches. The sex-related items sold well. The others didn't. Adam & Eve's erotic path was set.
What really transformed the business, however, was the video cassette recorder. With the advent of the VCR in the early 1980s, porn movies, once mostly relegated to X-rated theaters, moved into American living rooms. Adam & Eve jumped on the video bandwagon.
Federal crackdown
By the mid-1980s, the company was mailing millions of catalogs a year. Business was growing. Then came the Reagan administration's porn industry crackdown. Thirty-seven federal agents raided Adam & Eve's Carrboro headquarters.
Harvey went to trial in Alamance County in 1987 for disseminating obscenity. If you're writing a history of North Carolina's most surprising trials, put this one on your list. Jurors watched six hours of porn flicks, deliberated only an hour and then acquitted Harvey. His lawyers didn't even mount a defense.
But the feds weren't finished. The government hatched a plan to shut down adult mail-order companies by prosecuting them in multiple jurisdictions. Some of Adam & Eve's competitors folded, unable to keep defending themselves. That was the government's aim, says Charlotte attorney David Rudolf, one of Harvey's lawyers. "It was designed to bankrupt them."
Harvey fought back. In 1990, Adam & Eve sued the federal government, charging that prosecutors were abusing their power, bullying the company to force it to surrender its First Amendment right to distribute non-obscene materials.
In 1993, Adam & Eve prevailed. Federal obscenity prosecutors ceased their pursuit. Adam & Eve agreed to pay a fine on a technicality – it didn't use big enough type when it wrote "sexually explicit ad" on an envelope. Harvey details his fight and victory in his 2001 book, "The Government Vs. Erotica: The Siege of Adam & Eve."
Company of the year
Soon, Adam & Eve again faced opposition, as Hillsborough residents protested its plans to relocate from Carrboro. Once the company moved in, however, the furor died, and Adam & Eve hasn't weathered a public controversy since. In 2005, it was even named the Hillsborough/Orange County Chamber of Commerce's company of the year.
Adam & Eve employs 350 people and does $105 million in annual sales, mostly from its online store. In many ways, it's a typical corporation. It offers free fitness classes and awards employees for good work. At a recent employee meeting, supervisors gave affectionate descriptions of staffers celebrating work anniversaries.
Some things set Adam & Eve apart, however. If you work there, you need to be comfortable with words your parents warned you never to say. Also, there's a glass case in the customer contact center that holds a variety of anatomically correct sex products. These are basically reference materials that help telephone operators answer customer questions or make suggestions to encourage a bigger sale.
For years, Harvey led both Adam & Eve and DKT International, the nonprofit he founded. Adam & Eve is owned by 95 employees, including Harvey, whose holding is less than half and set to decline over time at his request. Now 76 years old, he's retired but remains on both boards. He lives with his wife outside Washington, D.C., and travels regularly to Hillsborough to spend time at Adam & Eve.
"My presence here is kind of optional," he said during a visit in May. He describes himself as guru and historian, "the person they come to when they want to find out what happened in 1976."
You'd guess that Harvey was a professor, not a porn seller. Reading glasses perch on his nose, and even when he talks about adult products, he sounds scholarly. ("The popularity of vibrators in America is quite astonishing," he notes during one interview.)
Connecting all Harvey's endeavors, says DKT President Christopher Purdy, "is this deep, deep passion for freedom – freedom to choose how many kids you want, freedom to do what you want to do in the bedroom, freedom to lead the life you want to lead."
One recent venture is the DKT Liberty Project, a nonprofit whose civil liberty-oriented aims include ending the nation's war on drugs. A self-described libertarian, Harvey is also co-writing a book about welfare reform that advocates for policies, such as the earned income tax credit, that would make it easier for people to move off welfare.
Over the years, Harvey has donated more than $50 million of his Adam & Eve profits to his family-planning work. Marie Stopes International, a British reproductive health nonprofit, estimates that in 2013 alone, DKT International prevented 8.3 million unwanted pregnancies, 12,364 maternal deaths and 1.8 million abortions in 19 developing countries. The agency calculates the impact with a formula that uses demographics and health data.
Harvey can't be sure how much his work has contributed to falling developing nation birth rates, he says, but "it's nice to know I've been engaged in something that seems to have worked out well."
He's equally proud of Adam & Eve and its role in promoting the idea, he says, "that sex is good and fun and healthy and pleasurable."
Adam & Eve retains sex therapists and psychologists who screen products to ensure material is neither illegal nor harmful. Harvey instituted that policy in 1987 when he realized that several bondage titles had crept into the company's video and magazine inventory.
Today, the company is "one the oldest and most respected brands in adult entertainment," says Dan Miller, executive managing editor of XBiz, an adult entertainment industry trade publication.
Mainstream sex toys
The company keeps evolving. Internet porn battered DVD and video sales, which once accounted for more than half its revenue. But the decline coincided with rising demand for pleasure products.
The popularity of vibrators has been growing since the 1970s, when the women's movement gave birth to sex-toy shops catering exclusively to women, says Lynn Comella, a sexuality scholar at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. "The vibrator became a powerful symbol of female liberation," Comella says, allowing women "to reclaim sexuality, take control of their orgasms."
In recent years, sex toys have moved toward the mainstream with the help of pop culture vehicles such as HBO's "Sex and the City" and "Fifty Shades of Grey," the best-selling erotic novel. The sex toy industry now grosses $15 billion in annual sales. You can find vibrators on drugstore shelves.
More customers are also willing to be seen shopping for these products. Adam & Eve opened its first franchise store in 2006 to capture part of the brick-and-mortar retail market, still lucrative despite the growth of online shopping. It now has 58 franchises in 20 states, with locations that include Monroe, Gastonia and Concord. The company's goal: 400 stores in 10 years.
The business offers advantages you don't encounter with most retail, Charlotte store manager Jessica Guzman says. For one thing, "you don't really get angry customers." Your inventory provides pleasure. It helps couples re-ignite their sex lives. The work is fun. It's even rewarding.
Guzman and her sales associates describe various sex toy functions as easily as Home Depot employees recite paint colors. Lingerie is their best-selling product. Vibrators of all types – dishwasher-safe, eco-friendly, ergonomically correct – run second. The most expensive: a 24-carat-gold model that looks kind of like a computer mouse. It's $4,800, but the sales staff says it's got a great warranty.
Store customers these days are mostly couples and women. About half are over 50. Some are widows or divorcees who visit at the prodding of daughters.
Some look uncomfortable when they walk through the door, but "once they get in here, they realize we're not some seedy, dark-lit sex store," says Teresa Webb, vice president for sales for Sactacular Holdings, the Raleigh company that operates the Charlotte store and 11 other Adam & Eve franchises.
Adam & Eve's customers generally don't know its colorful history, but why would they? The company doesn't advertise it, and Harvey doesn't think that touting his charitable work, however impressive, would boost sales. "My hypothesis is when people are making a purchase to make their sex lives better, it's a different part of the brain than the charitable guy."
On a recent afternoon, several shoppers browsed. After a few minutes, one of them, a 41-year-old mother of three, placed a bustier and two pleasure products on the checkout counter.
"Special occasion?" Webb asked.
Yes, it was. The woman smiled and explained why:
"The kids aren't home."

On Valentine's Day and every other day, sagging libidos mean big business. Following a tradition that probably dates back to the world's first medicine men, lots of companies offer supplements, herbs and tonics that supposedly stoke sexual desire. Ads for these products typically blend suggestive come-ons with pictures of attractive people who have evidently breached their sexual barriers.
And then there's ArginMax, a supplement that takes a different approach: The company website provides links to actual scientific studies published in real medical journals, a rarity in the world of libido remedies.
ArginMax comes in two formulas, one for men and one for women. As the name suggests, each variety contains L-arginine, an amino acid that's a common ingredient in both bodybuilding and sexual supplements. There's a reason for its popularity: Cells in the body use L-arginine to make nitric oxide, a compound that helps relax blood vessels and increase blood flow, a potentially helpful process if your plans include sex. Both versions also contain ginkgo (an herb that enhances blood flow), ginseng (a mild stimulant) and a variety of vitamins and minerals. The women's formula includes damiana, an herb that is said to calm anxiety.
ArginMax is sold online and at GNC stores across the country. Users are instructed to take six capsules a day. A one-month supply costs about $30.
The claims: According to the ArginMax website, the women's formula is "designed to take a more natural, gentle and gradual approach toward sexual health and wellness." The men's formula is said to "improve your overall level in sexual fitness." For both men and women, enhanced desire is a major selling point. The site says ArginMax can increase "libido and sexual stamina," but stops short of calling it an aphrodisiac.
"It's really for anyone who experiences a lackluster sexual drive," says Denny Kwock, general manager of the Daily Wellness Co., the Honolulu-based outfit behind ArginMax. The mix of amino acids and herbs does more than simply rouse blood flow, he says. "We believe that it goes straight to the central nervous system to enhance libido."
The bottom line: "It's worth a try," says Beverly Whipple, professor emerita at Rutgers University and author of "The G Spot and Other Discoveries About Human Sexuality." ArginMax is one of very few sexual supplements that's supported by placebo-controlled clinical trials, she says.
Whipple was a co-author of the most recent ArginMax study, published in the Journal of Sex and Marital Therapy in 2006. In the trial, 108 women of varying ages took either ArginMax or a placebo every day for four weeks. At the end of the study, more than two-thirds of pre-and perimenopausal women taking ArginMax reported increased satisfaction with their sex lives. About one-third of those taking a placebo reported improvements too. Half of postmenopausal women taking ArginMax said they felt more desire, compared with only 8% taking a placebo.
A study of 21 men with erectile dysfunction published in the Hawaii Medical Journal in 1998 found that ArginMax may help enhance erections and male sexual satisfaction. The study wasn't placebo-controlled, but 19 men reported at least some improvements.
Some experts aren't convinced, though. Abdulmaged Traish, a professor of biochemistry and urology and director of research at the Institute for Sexual Medicine at Boston University School of Medicine, says the studies of ArginMax have all been very small, and researchers relied on patient reports -- not laboratory measurements -- to gauge success. Patients in sex studies are sometimes too embarrassed, boastful or hopeful to accurately describe their personal results, he says.
Traish is especially skeptical of the namesake ingredient. Just as a stadium only has a certain number of seats, cells in the body only have so much room for L-arginine, he says, so adding more of the amino acid to the bloodstream won't increase the supply inside cells.
It's possible, he adds, that the vitamins, minerals and herbs in ArginMax might make a person feel healthier -- and, perhaps, a little more ready for sex.
"There might be something to it, but it's not from the arginine," he says.

Reviewed by John Street
This is the 49th edition of this highly useful little publication, which retains its usual format. It begins with a short feature: last year it related to the start of the International Decade for a Culture of Peace and Non-violence for Children; this year the feature is on using the World Wide Web by activists within the peace movement.
The diary section is a week to a view, running from Monday to Sunday. Each week has its own quote or campaigning note as an introduction and for every day (except January 6 and 26, March 9, June 8, August 19 and September 10) there is an anniversary; the anniversaries included have been changed since last year's diary.
After the week to a view for 2002, there is a four page forward planner section for 2003. Unfortunately, the usefulness of this section is marred somewhat by what is presumably a printing error. In my copy at least, the abbreviations for Monday and Wednesday (Mon and Wed) had been split over two lines, so that the days of the week do not match up with the dates themselves.
The World Peace Directory (a subset of Housmans World Peace Database) gives contact details for almost 2000 organisations throughout the world working for peace and conflict resolution, the environment, and human rights. International organisations are listed first, and the remainder are listed by country, from Afghanistan (four organisations, addresses in Pakistan) and Albania to Zambia and Zimbabwe. The countries with the most organisations listed are Britain (9 pages) and the USA (6 pages). This year there are 66 pages devoted to the Peace Directory, 4 fewer than last year. The publishers claim that this directory is the most comprehensive and up-to-date of its kind published anywhere in the world.
The combined diary and world peace directory will be immensely useful to a wide range of activists, although I suspect that very few will make use of more than a few of its contact details. Its usefulness lies in the fact that they are there and they are comprehensive.

I've actually posted three articles about the Karneval celebration that my friends and I experienced in Cologne 3 years ago. You can read about the articles by clicking here and here and here. :)
Billy Cullen ke tidokkk?!
GeisterzugMy housemates (Darwin & Adam) and I decided to get dressed up and went to Cologne on Saturday for Karnevalssamstag. We heard that there was gonna be a Geisterzug (Ghost parade) going on that evening. Sadly we got there a bit late and didn't get to catch the parade. So we just walk around in the Innenstadt and enjoy the view of the city which was full of people wearing costumes and doing silly things.It was fun to be part of this crazy night.
Posing kat rumah dulu..ambik feel katanya.. :p
Darwin in his pirate costume...
Nabeyl as vampire and Adam as a viking

Eh geget leher ke pipi ni?
Rosenmontag was the highlight of the "crazy days" event. On this day, you'll find colourful and exciting parades and the typical goodies which are Kamelle (sweets,candies, chocolates and etc.), and Struessjer ( Flowers). These are the main attractions for the Rosenmontag event where Kamelle and Struessjer are given out for free by the people marching in the parade. Nice huh? We were all dressed up for the Rosenmontag. Fizz and I went earlier to Cologne to get a nice spot to collect Kamelle and watch the parade. Adam, Darwin and Zikri came later to join us.
Aww group pic...Zikri, Darwin, Adam, Fizz and I
Looking for the best spot to see the parade..
Nampak x chocolate terbang kena baling tu.. :)
Haha tergoda ke tidokkk?
Fizz got Struessjer!
Posing jap...get into character...
Sesi tukar2 costume..
Till the next post...

French ISP 'Free' Refusing To Send Out Hadopi Notices To Users [Updated]
from the but-does-that-still-count? deptAt the beginning of September, we noted that some French ISPs had indicated that, as the French three strikes process began, with the Hadopi agency sending out its tens of thousands of "first strike" notices, they would ignore the requests. It appears that may be happening. Apparently the French ISP "Free" (which, as I discovered last time I was in France and tried to connect to its WiFi, is not actually free) has decided that it will not pass along the warning notices to users:
"The law says that it is the Hadopi which has to send the warning 'for his own account and under its stamp, by electronic means, through the (ISPs)'. It never says how it should be sent 'through the ISPs'."The TorrentFreak article notes that other ISPs are complaining that Free is doing this to gain a competitive advantage with customers, but I'm not sure I buy that. After all, it doesn't sound like Free isn't handing over the users' personal info. They're just not letting users know about it. If anything, that could make Free seem worse to users, in that it's handing their info over to Hadopi for the purpose of the three strikes program, but not letting the users know that they have any strikes.
Furthermore, although ISPs have been given the job of identifying and matching up IP addresses with the alleged infringers' personal details (on pain of 1,500 euros per day per IP fine for failing to do so), there are no penalties in place for not sending out warnings.
"But 'Free' did not agree to Hadopi using its SMTP servers without a signed agreement, which apparently was refused, probably because they required payment or other forms of compensations."
Update: Guillaume Champeau, who originally reported this story explains further in the comments:
The Hadopi law says that in order to face penalties before the court, Internet suscribers must have received at a least one previous warning by paper mail. - It also says that in order to send this paper mail, the HADOPI must have been noticed of new infrigements which must have occured within 6 months after an e-mail was sent. - Therefore, if the e-mail was never sent, no paper mail can be sent either, and the users can't face penalties. Currently the law does not mandate an ISP to send the e-mails. But it does mandate them to hand out personal infos.So, it sounds like this does protect users, via a bit of a loophole in the Hadopi law. Even if Hadopi sends out the personal info, if the email isn't sent, then Hadopi can't take the person to court, and Free has no obligation under the law to actually send the email.

Obama's options on Keystone
Friday's much anticipated State Department report on the Keystone XL pipeline is a body blow to environmentalists but does nothing to change President Barack Obama's two eventual choices and the fact that either one will be unpopular.
Approve Keystone and he angers his liberal base — and donors. Reject it and it remains a thorn in the administration's side for three more years.
Story Continued Below
The State Department report only reinforces the conventional wisdom is that Obama will eventually approve the Canada-to-Texas pipeline.
But there's no report the Obama administration can write that will convince greens the pipeline — and associated oil sands development — isn't an environmental disaster-in-waiting. The effects of the carbon dioxide emissions from extracting the raw materials and risk of a pipeline break are too great, they say.
And nothing is going to slow down lobbying efforts by pipeline builder TransCanada, the Canadian government and the oil and gas industry. There also is no stopping Republicans, who have made the pipeline at a symbol of what they say is Obama's failure to create jobs or keep gasoline prices low, although there's no guarantee the pipeline would do either one in a significant matter.
So for now, back to waiting.
The political pros and cons for Obama are anything but simple. And his decision — by no means imminent — will affect his legacy, the prospects for congressional Democrats and the future of the liberal environmental movement, for starters.
( Also on POLITICO: Big win for big oil)
A group of big Democratic donors, including Esprit co-founder Susie Tompkins Buell and Taco Bell heir and Democracy Alliance head Rob McKay, have publicly pressured Obama to reject the pipeline. Billionaire Tom Steyer, who poured money to help Terry McAuliffe win the Virginia governor's race last year, ran an anti-Keystone ad during the State of the Union and is expected to spend millions of dollars more.
But Obama isn't running again and several moderate Senate Democrats, including Mary Landrieu, Mark Begich, Mark Pryor and Kay Hagan, already support building the pipeline. It'd take an anti-Obama talking point off the table and avoid the possibility of an international spat with Canada.
Greens also realistically have nowhere to go — even if disappointed on one issue, a Democratic president and Senate is far better than anything the GOP can offer them.
About 56 percent of Americans support building the pipeline, with 41 percent opposed, according to a poll conducted in November and December by Stanford University and Resources for the Future. But those numbers may be squishy — environmental issues generally rank far below topics like jobs, the economy and health care when it comes down to how much voters care.
( Also on POLITICO: Obama's power play)
"These findings are suggestive but not conclusive," said RFF President Phil Sharp told USA Today. "We simply don't know how firm people's attitudes are about this."
In fact, the Republican pressure and expensive lobbying campaigns haven't actually forced the president to do anything on Keystone but sit and wait for the State Department report. And the issue didn't put Mitt Romney into the White House, despite his campaign pledge to sign the order on his first day in office to build the pipeline.
Building Keystone would in theory both appeal to independents and Republicans, yet it is just as likely that Obama wouldn't get credit or love for granting the pipeline permit. The Republicans that have spent five years attacking his administration's energy policies are not going to suddenly lay off.
In theory, the same moderate Democrats who support the pipeline could benefit from having another opportunity to separate themselves from an unpopular president. But the GOP is going to attack them no matter what.
"Politically, it's an enormous opportunity and highlights the Obama/Reid anti-energy agenda that vulnerable Democrats like Mary Landrieu, Mark Pryor, Mark Begich and [Rep.] Gary Peters [D-Mich.] represent," said Senate GOP campaign spokesman Brad Dayspring.
For environmentalists, rejecting the pipeline is a way Obama can help cement his progressive legacy.
Obama laid out an ambitious climate agenda at a Georgetown University speech last June, but the realities of a divided and hostile Congress dictates that he limit himself to regulations or executive actions. The president has spent the last two weeks, including his State of the Union address, talking about just that – things he can do without the help of Congress.
The Keystone XL pipeline fits squarely in that mold — the choice is his, not the House or Senate's.
"It's pretty clear that Republican extremists in Congress are making it exceedingly difficult to make progress on other important issues," said Tiernan Sittenfeld of the League of Conservation Voters. "The good news on addressing climate change is that President Obama has so much authority. He can go big and bold and do things that are truly transformative and will leave a lasting legacy."
