When it comes to achieving orgasms during sex with a regular partner, straight women still lag behind men and lesbian women, a new study suggests.
Using surveys of single people, the Kinsey Institute research suggests that men — straight or gay — climax about 85 percent of the time during sex, while lesbians do so about 75 percent of the time. Straight females placed third, achieving orgasm during about 63 percent of sexual encounters.
Why the discrepancies? Basic anatomy and gaps in communication between partners may be key, the study authors said.
"We need to take seriously the wide variety of factors that may influence sexual outcomes, including orgasm, in individuals and couples," said study lead author Justin Garcia, an assistant professor of gender studies at the Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender, and Reproduction at Indiana University, in Bloomington.
The findings aren't definitive, he stressed, because they're based only on people's recollections about recent sexual encounters with familiar sex partners.
Still, the study does offer new insight into sexuality, Garcia believes. "In their 1966 treatise, Masters & Johnson suggested that lesbian women have more orgasms than heterosexual women," he said. "Yet there have not been many studies that have taken a careful look at orgasm outcomes across sexual orientation categories. We attempt to fill this knowledge gap."
To do so, the new study analyzed the results of an Internet-based survey of 2,850 single American adults age 21 or older — almost 1,500 men and 1,350 women. The survey had higher numbers of gays and bisexuals than the American population because the researchers wanted to fully represent their experiences.
All the participants reported having sex with someone else over the past year, and each answered a question about the percentage of the time that they had an orgasm during sex with a familiar partner over the past 12 months.
The difference in orgasm rates between straight and lesbian women was significant, and the reasons why aren't clear. Study co-author Elisabeth Lloyd, chair of history and philosophy of science at Indiana University, said it may have something to do with the fact that penetrative intercourse is a more crucial part of sex for straight women than for lesbians.
The anatomy of women — especially the difference between the clitoris and the urinary opening — is crucial to the likelihood that a woman will have an orgasm through intercourse, she said.
Still, better communication between heterosexual partners couldn't hurt, the researchers added.
"The most successful means of increasing satisfaction has always been increased communication and attentiveness to the partner's responsiveness," Lloyd said. In other words, talk and pay attention.
Garcia agreed. He said partners of all types can help women reach orgasm by paying attention to "both spoken and unspoken communication."
"Some individuals may say what they want, or be willing to state what they want if asked by a partner; others may communicate with body language," Garcia said. "And for others it may take getting to know each other, both in and out of the bedroom, to understand what allows them to experience positive sexual outcomes."
And does all this mean that lesbians are more sexually satisfied than straight women? Not necessarily, the researchers sad.
"Satisfaction is different from orgasm — many women can be sexually satisfied without orgasm," Lloyd said. "We can't infer that there are legions of unsatisfied heterosexual women because of this study. We'd have to ask them."
The study appears online Aug. 18 in The Journal of Sexual Medicine.

Orgasms Fly Higher for Women in Relationships Study Says
Study suggests that women are more likely to have an orgasm when in a serious relationship. Orgasms fly higher for committed women rather than those that settle for the average "booty call." The new study has found that casual sex might never lead to a real orgasm for women.
While it's true that women are as likely as men to engage in casual sex, they usually aren't as happy with the results. The benefits for women often fall much lower than those for men.
The International Academy of Sex Research presented results from the study during their annual meeting which showed that for women orgasms fly higher when they are in a serious relationship as opposed to a casual hookup.
Justin R. Garcia led the study team during the investigation. Garcia is a biologist at Indiana University and colleagues at the Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender and Reproduction. Garcia and his team also found that the desire to reach an orgasm was lower when it came to a one night fling for both men and women.
This study consisted of 600 college students. What they found was whether women were engaged in oral sex or actual intercourse they were less likely to climax during a one night stand.
This new study supports prior research by Paula England, a sociologist from New York University. Similar information was found during her study which showed that out of 24,000 college aged women just 40 percent reached an orgasm during casual sex. This study also revealed that 80 percent of men climaxed during a simple hookup.
On the other hand, during this same study England found that close to 75 percent of women reached a serious orgasm when they were having sex with a partner who was in relationship with them.
England's study was completed over five years and spanned 21 colleges.
Researchers of the new study say that women usually don't feel comfortable giving instructions concerning their wants and needs during casual sex. Men have admitted they aren't as focused on pleasing a woman during a quick fling.
David Giraldo, 26-year-old male, said it's always his mission to please his partner but he isn't going to try as hard when he's having sex with someone he doesn't really care about.
Casey Romaine, 22-year-old female, said a quick hook up is usually about sharing an intimate moment as opposed to having a particularly good sexual experience. She said she believes that as weird as it sounds it's almost irrelevant whether the sex is good or not.
Garcia told The New York Times that we have been sold this theory that we are living in an era where people can just be free sexually and have equal participation in society's hookup culture. He said the fact of the matter is not every participant is having a good time.
A recent study by Martin A. Monto presented at The American Sociological Association suggests that the new hookup culture theory may not really exist; it might just be a myth.
Monto, a professor of sociology at the University of Portland, said that his study showed that college kids today aren't having sex any more frequently than they did during the 80s and 90s.
Monto's study found in the comparative study that there is no evidence of substantial changes in sexual behavior among contemporary college students that would validate the suggestion that there is a new or pervasive hookup culture.
A new study advocates that women are more likely to have an orgasm when in a serious relationship; casual sex might never lead to a real orgasm for women.

Devon Cooper is now a second-generation state trooper.
Cooper, a 2011 Denton High School graduate and 2015 graduate of the University of North Texas, graduated Dec. 22 as a member of the 162nd Texas Department of Public Safety trooper training class. She is now stationed in Bonham, beginning six months of on-the-job training.
Cooper, 24, is the daughter of Scott and Sharon Cooper of Denton and granddaughter of Deanie Cooper and Laverne Green of Decatur.
Cooper's father is a Decatur High School graduate and was stationed in Wise County as a trooper from 1995 to 1999. Before that he worked as a deputy at the Wise County Sheriff's Office. He was promoted to sergeant investigator in the DPS Criminal Investigation Division in 2000. He rose to lieutenant in the division before retiring in 2011.
Cooper was one of 97 men and women in the December class.
The troopers began the 24-week training academy in July. Instruction covered more than 100 subjects, including counterterrorism, traffic and criminal law, arrest and control procedures, accident reconstruction, first aid and Spanish. They also received training in use of force, communication skills, firearms, driving, criminal interdiction, cultural diversity and physical fitness.


text: This movie managed to the do the unimaginable, besting the prequel in terms of awful direction, terrible plots, ridiculous cinema antics, horribly developed characters, and steely gazes. It's no wonder that one of the writers, Michael Hirst, went on to write for TV melodrama and the director, Shekhar Kapur, is noted for absolutely nothing but inability. In short, the Elizabeth movie series starring Cate Blanchett are garbage.

The word, Gemara, is an Aramaic word that typically refers to the Jewish Talmud. The Talmud is the Jewish Oral Tradition. This Oral tradition explains and is the legal commentary on the Torah ("Judaism: The Oral Law—Talmud and Mishna (jewishvirtuallibrary, no date). Without it, much of the Torah appears vague or unclear. With it, our Jewish religion comes to life.
But the word, Gemara, also has a more specific meaning. You see, the Talmud has two parts, the Mishna and the Gemara. The Mishna is a compilation of laws gathered from the Torah, along with minority opinions, value statements and observations about those Torah references (ibid). The Gemara follows a Mishna quote. It is a compilation and collection of oral discussions about the contents of that particular quote. These discussions cover each detail of that Mishna citation.
A Mishna might be ten lines long. The Gemara discussion might be ten pages long—or longer.
For centuries, these discussions had been oral. But they were finally organized and written down over a period of time some 1500-1600 years ago.
The Talmud's discussions are recorded in a consistent format (ibid). For example, a law from the Mishna is cited. This is then followed by rabbinic deliberations on its meaning (those ten+ pages). These rabbinic discussions are called, 'the Gemara' (ibid).
When someone refers to 'a Gemara', he is referring to one of those rabbinic discussions. One such discussion in the Tractate, Sotah (8b), begins with a statement in a Mishna (ibid, 8b) which states, "According to the measure with which one measures out [his actions], [the Heavenly tribunal] measure for him [in return]". The need for these brackets is to fill in the remaining parts of a statement; this stylistic uniqueness is commonplace in the Oral tradition. This is why it is not recommended to study the Talmud alone. One could misstate or misunderstand what is written. It takes at least two people searching commentary together to figure out the meaning of what is written.
This is also why the ArtScroll edition of the Talmud has become so popular. It provides the individual student the commentary and background information necessary to understand the basics of what's happening on each line of the Talmud.
According to the ArtScroll edition of the Talmud, this quoted statement above (Sotah, 8b) means that, "in whatever manner one conducts oneself, Divine Judgment deals with him in a similar manner" (ibid, 8b2-2, Note 15). This is known as 'measure-for-measure'. The ArtScroll commentary adds that 'G-d treats a person in this way so that he will recognize that [what happens to him] was a reward or punishment directed by Divine Providence' (ibid).
This particular Gemara excerpt reminds me of US President Barack Obama's dealings with Israel and Iran. Look at his behaviour: concerning Israel, Mr Obama has gone on record to state he is Israel's best friend (Coleen Curtis, "President Obama Tells Israeli People: The U.S Is Proud to Be 'Your Strongest Ally and Your Greatest Friend'", The White House Blog, March 20, 2013). He has said that the "U.S. has Israel's back and that it would initiate a military strike on Iran if Tehran failed to pull the plug on its nuclear arms program" (Amrutha Gayathri, "Is President Obama Israel's Best Friend?", International Business Times, March 7, 2012).
But since making these statements, Mr Obama has worked to betray Israel (Rachel Levy, "Obama Aides Lay Groundwork to Betray Israel at UN Security Council", The Jewish Press, March 21, 2015). Despite his professions of friendship with Israel, he's "constantly proven that he is not a friend to Israel" (Shawn Hannity transcript, "Is President Obama betraying Israel?", Fox News, March 2, 2015).
-Obama has repeatedly stated that 'settlements' are 'illegitimate' and must stop (actually, this isn't just a betrayal of Israel, it's a betrayal of the Torah, which states that the Jewish people are to 'settle' Israel—a 'settlement' process that includes that same Judea-Samaria which Obama calls 'illegitimate' and which the Torah calls 'Israel') (ibid).
-Obama refused to have his picture taken with Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu—and walked out of a dinner meeting with Netanyahu (ibid), abandoning Netanyahu without comment.
-Obama was caught on an open microphone exchanging with then-French president Nicholas Sarkozy derogatory remarks about Netanyahu (ibid).
-During the 2014 war with Gaza, Obama didn't 'have Israel's back', but was instead highly critical of Israel (ibid).
-As a result of actions by Obama, relations with Israel have never been worse (ibid).
With regards to Iran, you saw in the quote above (Amrutha Gayathri, above) that Obama has said he'd attack Iran if Iran didn't 'pull the plug' on its nuclear ambitions. He also gave Israel's Netanyahu his personal commitment "to do whatever it takes to prevent Iran from producing an atomic bomb" (Jeffrey Goldberg, "Obama's Crystal-Clear Promise to Stop Iran From Getting a Nuclear Weapon", The Atlantic, October 2, 2012).
Now, Obama is proposing to allow Iran's nuclear facilities to stay in place. He's also, it seems, agreed in secret documents to deliver to Iran "high-tech reactors and other state-of-the-art equipment" that would "modernize and improve Iran's nuclear program" (Adam Kredo, "Iran demands more nuclear concessions", Washington Free Beacon," June 24, 2015).
That's not keeping a promise. That's betraying a promise.
Iran has stated repeatedly—even during these nuclear negotiations—that its intent is to destroy Israel. Any assistance the US gives to the Iranian nuclear program is a direct threat against Israel. It's also a signal that Obama has not been the friend to Israel he has said he is.
In the Tractate Sotah (11a), we learn how G-d measures out punishment to a gentile leader (Pharaoh) according to how that leader measured out his own actions towards the Jews.
If you live in America, here's a piece of advice. Think about Obama's behaviour. Think about what happened to Pharaoh in the Exodus story. Then, make aliyah. Come to Israel. Walk away from one who betrays the Jewish nation.


text: I really tried to get involved in Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children, I really did, but I just couldn't jump into the storyline. It was sort of boring in a way to me. So, I quit reading it and instead jumped into this novel: Enthralled. It's about paranormal situations that have happened to teens, whether it be romance, comedy, etc. It's made up of a bunch of mini stories from bestselling authors like Claudia Gray and Rachel Caine. I think I'll enjoy this book way more than Miss Peregrines :)

Chapter 18
One of the major questions remaining is where the money will come from for the independent agency's purchase of the index mutual fund shares. It has been best to leave this question until after our discussion of free market ideology.
New-money creation:
New money is created more or less constantly by the central bank as it expands the money supply to match a growing economy. (Often, it expands the supply more than that, creating a "bubble.") During Alan Greenspan's tenure as chairman of the Federal Reserve in the United States, he once told how "at its February meeting, the Federal Open Market Committee reaffirmed the provisional ranges set last July for money and debt growth this year: 1 to 5 percent for M2, 2 to 6 percent for M3, and 3 to 7 percent for the debt of domestic nonfinancial sectors."[1] (The references to M2 and M3 are to different types of money as defined by monetary economists.)
Economist William R. Allen explains that "most money is created by bank lending – commercial banks create the deposits they lend. Banks are required to hold reserves equal to a minimum fraction of their deposit liabilities… An increase in reserves can come from bank borrowing from the Fed… The dominating thing is 'open market operations.'… The Fed often enters the government securities market. If the Fed buys securities from bond dealers, it thereby directly creates money dollar-for-dollar equal to the value of the purchase… There will be additional reserves, on the basis of which banks can create a multiple of new checking deposits. There has long been an extremely large correlation between Fed purchases and sales of government securities, on the one hand, and the money supply, on the other."[2]
For a "shared market economy," we should consider an alternative to such FOMC purchases of government securities from bond dealers. This would involve abandoning the FOMC "open market operations" money-creation and instead having the independent agency buy the index mutual fund shares it needs by using similarly-created money. The agency itself, the FOMC, or the national Treasury could be given the legal power to create money and, instead of buying government securities with it, to buy the fund shares. This could put the same amount of new money into the business system as before, providing capital to business in general and having the same effect on the price level. The money would simply enter the system at a different place. The result would be that the enterprises forming the economy would receive their billions of extra dollars, while at the same time the independent agency would come into ownership of billions of dollars a year worth of index mutual fund shares – all without a penny being taken from anyone through taxation or otherwise. It simply adapts a mechanism that is already in use and taken for granted as part of the normal operation of the market economy. Purchases in the amounts mentioned by Greenspan would come to billions of dollars per year. The effect would be cumulative, with the shares purchased one year being added to those purchased previously.
Much of the expansion of the money supply from open market operations comes not from the initial purchase of government securities, but from the multiplier effect within the banking system as new accounts are created. This means that the agency purchase of fund shares (if the same amount is used for their purchase as the FOMC would have used for its government bond purchases) will be in a dollar amount that is smaller than the total increase in the money supply would have been. If it were thought desirable to have the entire increase in the money supply result in purchases for the distribution-fund, the amount of newly-created money could be increased to what the total expansion would have been under the present system of infusing the money into banks. In such case, it would be worth considering going to 100%-reserve banking, taking the banks entirely out of the business of creating new money themselves through the present practice's multiplier effect. The entire increase in the money supply would come from fund purchases by the independent agency. This may have considerable advantage in addressing the problem of the business cycle, which is a separate issue than we have been discussing, but nevertheless a very important one. The economist Irving Fisher advocated 100%-reserve banking for that purpose.
I have recently become aware that the idea of shifting the direction of newly created money was advanced in the 1920s. An article by Stephen M. Goodson in 2009 says that "one of the 20th century's foremost monetary reformers, Major Clifford Hugh Douglas… advocated the transfer of the money creation process from private banks – which create money out of nothing as an interest-bearing debt – to the state. This government-created money he termed Social Credit. He favored the payment of a basic income or national dividend to each citizen."[3] This is similar to our thinking here, although without the "shared market economy" feature.
It is worth noting that Douglas went further along the lines favored here, accepting and expanding upon Henry George's point (which we have discussed in various connections) about how the "unearned increment" in an economy should be used for the common benefit. He spoke of "the unearned increment of association" coming from "the cultural inheritance" passed down through successive generations. "The ownership of these intangible factors vests in the members of the living community… Ethically, because it is an inheritance from the labours of past generations of scientists, organisers, and administrators, and pragmatically because the denial of its communal character sets in motion disruptive forces…."[4] This unearned increment can provide a vast source for taxation without violating the classical liberal principle that someone should be entitled to keep what he has earned (subject only to ordinary taxation).
We recall that Henry George spoke primarily of the "unearned increment" on rising land and mineral values, and said it could be fully taxed and used for public needs (such as, in a shared market economy, for fund purchases).
There is, however, a necessary qualification. This relates to how the "unearned value" of something like land or minerals can be taxed away in today's society without in effect expropriating the present owners. Those owners have paid for the property when they have acquired it, so the unearned value has gone to the sellers (and actually to their predecessors in a long chain of title). In dealing with the current owner, there is no justification for taking the portion of the value of the land represented by the purchase price. It will only be just to the present owners to tax the unearned increment occurring after the shared market economy is introduced.
It is enough just to tax the unearned increment that arises in the future. Assume, for example, that someone buys land for $100,000 and it increases in value to $200,000 as the city grows up around it, and that none of that increase is due to improvements made on the land. This increase, as adjusted for the inflation that may have occurred during the period the increase in value has occurred, could (and should) be considered as accruing to the community as a whole.
As Henry George argued, the rise in values attributable to increasing population (or to changing technological demand or other factors that aren't related to the owner's efforts) are rightly an asset of the general community. George envisioned this as a huge source of public funds. Whatever it is judiciously concluded to amount to, it can be used for fund purchases or other public uses.
Looking to the future, there will be vast unearned increment going to any person who earns income in the future economy. As we noted in Chapter 14's conceptual critique, that income will be partly due to the value added by the individual or the firm, but will also be significantly due to the enormous accretion of technology and scientific knowledge from the past (as well as to the entire infrastructure of civilization that creates the context for the earnings). The latter is rightly the asset of the entire community.
How much of a given sum of earnings is due to the one, and how much to the other, has no conceptual answer, and will have to be determined by the society on an on-going basis. The division should be one that balances the rightful claims of the community against the need to provide the participants in the market economy a fully ample incentive in light of their risk and contribution. Whatever part is taken for the community can, if that is the choice, be put into fund purchases.
Contrary to the strongly held conviction of free market conservatives and libertarians up to now, there will be a valid rationale, consistent with a classical liberal point of view, for progressive taxation. The inheritance taxes that are necessary to prevent the rise of a hereditary caste can also go into fund purchases. An important concern will be about a possible flight of people and capital from a given country to avoid its taxation, however rightful that taxation may be. National laws and international compacts may be necessary to prevent that from happening.
The many present-today expenditures that will be made unnecessary:
Subject to complex details of transition, all money going to Social Security for its various purposes that include old age and disability assistance, now and in the future, could go instead to index mutual fund purchases by the agency. The distribution through the agency would provide people with income for all periods of their lives. There would be no need for both systems.
same would apply to the money now spent for welfare and the many forms of
assistance to the poor. A news report in
1997 said that "this year, welfare spending will hit $412 billion, or 5 percent
of the total
People of differing viewpoints vary as to how much a general system of income support will reduce crime, if at all. To the extent it does, the billions of dollars spent on the many parts of the justice system can be shifted to pay for fund purchases.
The money that firms and employees now put into pension savings, supplemental retirement annuities, and IRAs ("individual retirement accounts") for retirement can go into the fund purchases or into extra forms of savings to supplement the general distribution. The same can be said for what people spend on life insurance to protect spouses and children from destitution. Nor will people need to purchase insurance policies for nursing home and home health care in their old age, although they may find desirable supplemental savings or insurance for needs of that sort that may well cost more than they can afford from their receipt of the common distribution. Much that is now spent by charities for those in need will no longer be necessary, and the many programs for the hungry and the homeless can eventually be disbanded.
With these many sources at hand, there will be little problem finding the means to create the fund for distribution, except problems of transition.
For all of this to happen in the
challenge to this stranglehold is derided as "populist." For a purported "democracy," such an epithet
is fatuous. The ideal, voiced by
The hurricane-force winds of change that have raised the issues addressed in this book will create enormous tensions. In their absence, the stranglehold would likely continue. With them, who is to say what is possible?

|Abscessed teeth
The abscess in the teeth describes infection that has been the consequence of pocket with pus residing in a tissue within the teeth. Abscesses are extremely serious conditions, and may result in really serious issues as long as they aren't treated quickly. Whenever a pulp of the teeth dies because of injury or decay, bacterias develop in the lifeless tissues that's remaining. This particular bacterias will ultimately spread from the root of a lifeless teeth in to the tissues that's beneath and create a pocket of pus - tthe actual abscess.
Gum disease is another cause of the tteeth getting abscessed. Gum diseases will cause your gums to pull back as well as away from teeth, leaving behind pockets . Whenever one of the pockets gets clogged, any bacterias can easily grow and spread, or even get supported. Whenever this occurs, an abscess will begin to form underneath the surface of the gum area and be visible as swelling since it gets bigger and spreads.
As soon as the infection has begun to spread, jawbone will start to dissolve mainly because it makes room for the swelling in the region that's been infected. When the bone begins to dissolve, pressure will probably be reduced, even though infection is still there. although you will get relief, the infection can get worse - pain will usually keep coming back. Once more of the bone has been dissolved, there will be nothing left to support the tooth, meaning that it will become loose and end up needing to be extracted.
The signs and symptoms of a abscessed teeth are really easy to observe, since they include things like severe pain in the affected area, red or inflammed swollen gums, bad taste in mouth, swelling around the area or the jaw, and possibly a high fever. Pain is agonizing with the abscess, typically affecting the region in a very bad manner. No matter what ever you do, the pain seems to accentuate.
Abscesses largely occur with back teeth, even though they can occur in the front too. When your teeth has become abscessed, your dentist won't immediately pull it. If a tooth which has abscessed is extracted when the infection is still present, it could spread. Your dentist will rather prescribe you some antibiotics which will help o eliminate the bacteria.
The dentist may also perform root canal, in an effort to remove dead or decayed tissue. Last but not least, he can also drill an opening in the teeth to offer the infection the chance to drain and then try to remove any dead pulp. The most frequent treatment with an abscess antibiotics to eliminate the infection, then get the tooth removed. You should not allow it to get that bad - as an abscess can also destroy your jawbone.

Carbon emissions from cars contribute to the atmospheric pollution by a huge amount. Hybrid and electric cars are the choice of eco conscious families, as the emissions on road are almost nil. Hybrid cars produce much less emissions as they are powered by an electric motor as well as internal combustion. Apart from zero emissions, there are other aspects too, you could look at, such as the emissions produced during the process of recharging the batteries (of electric cars). Here are a few cars which an eco conscious family can choose from:
Toyota Prius Eco
Image Source : image.automobilemag.com
Toyota Prius Eco is one of the most eco friendly cars. It is powered by a 1.8 litre engine along with battery which produces 98 PS power. It has better mileage than before, and the redesigned ports promotes faster combustion. The company has made many improvements leading to greater thermal efficiency. It has a lot of room inside for the passengers, as well as a lot of boot space, which means you can stash all your things in it comfortably while going on road trips.
BMW i8
Image Source : buyersguide.caranddriver.com
The BMW i8 was seen in Mission Impossible and wowed everyone with its great design. It made its mark in the Auto Expo too, and this hybrid sportscar is seamlessly powered by a 7.1 kWH motor and a 1.5 l petrol engine, churning out 570 Nm torque and 354 bhp power. Eco friendly comes at a price however, as it is priced 2.29 Cr in India.
Volvo XC90 T8

The Volvo is a powerful eco friendly car for the family. This SUV is powered with an electrical unit as well as a 2 litre capacity petrol engine, churning out 407 bhp power and torque 640 Nm. The price is one Cr less than the BMW but might be a good choice for the family.
Honda Hybrid Accord
Image Source : hips.hearstapps.com
Honda has entered the Indian Auto market after a long gap, with its hybrid Honda Accord. The car gets it power from a two litre engine as well as an electric motor which churns out a power of 211 bhp power. It seems to have good performance, just like its petrol version.
Hybrid Toyota Camry
Image Source : static.toyotabharat.com
This is another hybrid car which will give off fewer emissions on road. It gives another eco friendly option to Indians looking to decrease their carbon footprint while driving. It has luxury features that are priced much less than other eco friendly luxury sedans. This powerful saloon car has a petrol engine (2.5 l) combined with an electric motor which gives a power of 160 bhp power and 233 Nm torque.

Download Say Anything (1989)
High school senior Lloyd Dobler needs just to go out with lovely and wise Diane Court. Lloyd endeavors to win her heart over the protests of her over-defensive father before Diane leaves for a grant in England.Most individuals I know adored Say anything and I am among the numerous who thought this was a decent touching, amusing motion picture for youngsters and youngsters. It is more wholesome then a ton of what's out there in this classification and despite the fact that it doesn't rank among my most loved high schooler motion picture it unquestionably earned it's praise.There are some awesome jokes in Say Anything and the male/female relationship is delineated in a touching and frequently extremely exact shockingly precise way.
In addition there are snapshots of simply unadulterated humorousness and exceptional lines, one of them being what I headed my Quote(my mate regardless I toss this line around right up 'til the present time.) John Cussack stars here and was great, it was first experience with him. I'd prescribe this motion picture to any individual who simply needs to see a pleasant new high schooler film with both touching and funny minutes. My vote is 8 out of 10.nd discuss part inversions! I'm so used to seeing the man play the decisive and develop part while seeking a lady of restricted money related or scholarly means…but in this film the young lady has her future together and the person who's more than willing to focus his consideration on making her upbeat. What's more, Lloyd Dobler isn't only a lazy man with no future.

August-The Month of Moving Forward
August is the month of moving forward. May you move away from that which has been nonproductive. May you move away from those things which have weighted you down and may you move into the promises of God which have eluded you to date.
"Let us go forward! And this is what we will do, if God allows." (Heb.6:3, GNT)

Salisbury NHS Foundation Trust has met all essential quality and safety standards in a report published by the independent Care Quality Commission (CQC), which carried out a routine unannounced inspection of Salisbury District Hospital in May 2011.
As part of the inspection the CQC talked to patients, staff and visitors. They observed the care people received in hospital and looked at care and treatment records. They also looked at standards of cleanliness and the management of people's medicines.
Peter Hill, Interim Chief Executive at Salisbury District Hospital said: "The inspection team were clearly impressed with the motivation and professionalism of our staff and the way they responded to the unannounced visit. This is a good report which reflects the hard work and commitment of our staff and shows that we are providing good quality, safe care, in a clean hospital environment."
In the report the CQC says that patients they spoke to were happy with their care and treatment and they felt involved in decisions made about them. They also felt that their rights to privacy, dignity and respect were fully promoted. People were also positive about staff who they said are 'competent, well trained, professional and good at their job'. Adequate nutrition and hydration for patients, good food choices and hospital cleanliness were also positive areas covered in the report.
The Trust is compliant in all areas covered in the report. The CQC has suggested some minor areas of improvement to ensure that the Trust maintains compliance with the essential standards of quality and safety in the future. This includes a more timely response to call bells and additional activities to occupy some patients. While the CQC was satisfied that patients' health needs were being met, this was not always recorded completely in patients' notes. These will be included in the Trust's action plan.
Peter Hill said:" We are pleased with the report which provides a positive view of the hospital, our staff and the quality of care we provide for our patients. It is important that we don't stand still, and we will continue to work with our patients, staff and visitors to improve services and maintain the delivery of good quality, safe patient care."

Emailed in by Mombers from Bloomberg:
In Los Angeles, it's perfectly legal to build a new apartment without a refrigerator, a balcony, or air conditioning. But you can't build one without plenty of parking. In most cases, in fact, you have to build at least two spaces per unit -- and no fudging with tandem or compact spaces. That makes housing much more expensive. Removing parking requirements would be one of the simplest ways to ease California's housing crisis...
Shoup gives the real-life example of a standard-size L.A. parcel whose zoning allows eight apartments, with required parking of 2.25 spaces each, or 18 total. The lot is only big enough to accommodate 16 spaces on one level of underground parking. Going from seven to eight apartments thus means digging down another level, which is prohibitively expensive. So the builder settles for seven units. The parking requirement costs one more family a home...
Scott Wiener, a San Francisco Democrat, has introduced a bill whose provisions include exempting new residential buildings from parking requirements if they're within half mile of a major transit station or a quarter mile from a frequent bus stop. The bill would certainly ease California's housing shortage. But, especially in the era of ride-sharing, there's no need to tie parking deregulation to transit -- or to wait for the state government to act.
Mombers adds: Question is whether this has any impact on rents – someone without a car will ceteris paribus pay more than someone with one – public transport and/or Uber much cheaper, leaving more income for the landlord/ bank to tuck into. And of course Manhattan has much fewer parking spaces per dwelling and much higher rents...
Ho hum.
1. As we know, construction costs add nothing to the selling price of homes (for a given 'quality') - that is limited by what people can afford. Higher construction costs just depress residual land values.
2. As we know, any sort of planning regulation (like making each unit have two parking spaces - or indeed not allowing a new block of flats to have parking spaces to encourage people to use public transport) must depress the value of the land. The developer works out what is 'best' by looking at what's sold for how much in the surrounding area and works backwards from that. If the regulations stipulate something different, then the value must be depressed, by definition. You wouldn't need regulations to encourage developers to make the best use of a site.
For example, It might be the case that people like having one parking space but aren't bothered about the second, in which case the second parking space adds nothing to the value or the selling price. Or it might be that they do value the second space, in which the developer would provide it anyway (unless the planning rules limited the number of spaces per unit etc).
3. Using more land for parking reduces the amount available for housing. By and large, denser populations lead to higher prices and hence disproportionately higher land values - see Mombers' Manhattan example. San Francisco has the highest prices and land values in California because it has the highest densities, being squeezed into a small geographically restricted area (like Manhattan). Assuming always that there's more public transport to take up the strain.
4. There is no housing shortage in California and prices are not particularly high, it's only expensive on the coast because continental USA has so little coastline, and even less nice coastline that the coastal premium is gigantic. By definition, there will never be 'enough' homes in the best areas (i.e. near the coast) if you define 'enough' as 'one for every household which would like one'.
So I am not convinced.

California's Love of Cars Is Fueling Its Housing Crisis - allegedly.

Good planning regs (or anything) will increase aggregated land rents, even though they might lower the rental income from any given plot.
Minimum size, quality regs etc, can be a good thing if judiciously applied. Bad if they go too far or inappropriate.
It's all about getting the right balance, which can be measured in aggregated land rents.
Shame this isn't appreciated beyond the confines of this blog, as it would cut through a load of bullshit regarding planning, supply and housing issues.

Housing in California does have additional costs associated with it - Earthquake regulation means a whole series of housing styles have been banned over the years as their problems became evident. Brick structures, for example.
"Using more land for parking reduces the amount available for housing. By and large, denser populations lead to higher prices and hence disproportionately higher land values."
Not entirely true, at least, not in this location.
One style of banned structure was almost unique to California and one of the most popular styles between 1950 and 1970 - It is called a "Dingbat" block. They are a consequence of land price, occupy a entire lot, and feature their car parking *underneath* the structure at street level. Lots of examples to be seen here. I like the "Crapi" apartments part way down:
The reason Dingbats got banned was because they are mostly fabricated from wood with sprayed on stucco exteriors - As cheap and nasty as they sound - But they continue to possess enthusiasts due to the fact that they solve the problem the car parking article outlines.
Land price effectively prompted their construction as they satisfy requirements for both living space and parking in one go. To some extent the regulations therefore elevated land value, through innovation in style/construction, but it also works the other way, in that once you had arrived at this particular solution every other more conventional style, tract homes, tower blocks etc, each of which requires a separate parking lot or underground excavation, all got pushed out in favour of something that you wouldn't think to build anywhere else because you don't need to.
Hence, LA found a way to make mass car ownership and high build density work - Shame they didn't make them out of something more solid.

BJ, as far as planning reg's go i think they should mainly focus on things not obvious or visible to the normal person such as fire, sound and heat insulation, having the wiring run vertically down walls, electrical safety, solid foundations, damp proofing etc. And possibly outward appearance i.e. not too offensive.
People are perfectly capable of judging room sizes with a measuring tape, or how many rooms or parking spaces a home has. But you can't guess what the fire insulation is like without digging open the walls again and nobody wants to find out the hard way.
ASM, good comment, better than my original post. Not sure how to reply to that except to say a brick built ding bat seems to be the best of both worlds. Why didn't they do that?
However, better build quality does not add to land price, how can it? People have a maximum housing budget so if build costs go up and house prices stay the same then by subtraction, the land price must go down.
And density does push up land values. it must do, or else SF and Manhattan would be dirt cheap and a ranch in Wyoming would cost $ millions. It's got to do with agglomeration effects.

Yet, I have a question to ask you. If you cannot motivate yourself, why do you think any of these things will work? Sure, they all can help and all the tools can be beneficial to the process. However, if you don't want to be motivated deep down, do you really think any of these will work? For example, with a coach if you really don't want to be motivated, you just stop going or paying for the coaches services. If you are using a process, you make up excuses to stop listening or taking actions towards motivation. So, in essence, you have to be motivated to even use the motivational products that are out there.
Maybe it is time you open your mind to different motivational ways. It is time to get out of the mindset that there is a perfect golden path. In fact, it is time to realize that some people will never have the motivation they need to achieve their goals. I am willing to bet that you know someone that totally bunks ever method or means to build motivation in his or her life. You could say that they are motivated to be unmotivated. Maybe it is in their DNA to remain unmotivated. Wrap your mind around this; if everyone were super motivated in the world, how crazy would that be? Everyone might be running around like they just drank 10 energy drinks, and life would be so bonkers that nothing would stand out because everyone would be doing their own thing.
Before I get into how motivation is tied to your sexual energy, I want you to sit and think about what motivates you. Maybe it's love; maybe it's money; maybe it's getting attention or any number of other things. Break this down to your core roots - what motivates you? You might respond, "Money!" Sure, money is nice, but it is actually just a means to get what you desire. So, you could say that what motivates you is the desire to have nice things. Think about if you had nothing and how nice it would be just to have food or a roof over you head. Hence, you start to see how motivation is connected to your position in life.
This book is not about bringing you down to the lowest level of motivation. I am sure if you have purchased this book you are not starving. However, you might be starving your motivation. Because things are readily available to you, your body, your mind and your soul, you don't have a driving desire to be extremely motivated. You have the basics in life; actually you have more than the basics. So, how do truly motivated people actually get past this stage and dive headlong into powerful motivation? I am talking about the kind of motivation similar to that of the pioneers, as they had to cross the country not knowing what they would find or where their next meal would come from. The kind that drove inventors to think so far outside the box that they came up with something no one else had even dreamed about. The kind of motivation that drives artists to keep creating their crafts knowing that it might not be popular until after they have passed away. What is this secret that drives motivation when there appears to be no deep need for such motivation?
The answer, my friends, is sexual! Sexual energy, in terms of motivation, is difficult to grasp. Therefore, I am going to explain it in the simplest of ways. It isn't about a deep desire to procreate but to have the life force energy pulse through your body. It isn't only about the physical orgasm, but about mental and spiritual ones. The feeling that is beyond words that reaches out and brings other dimensions into your life and let's you reach out and taste the other dimensions that tease you constantly.

Rev Jaeguen Bae [email@example.com]
Dear friends,
Kathy and I began work here as the Dublin Port Chaplains at the beginning of February 2012. We have a desire to see the churches growing on the oceans and to see sailor fellowships strengthened. A good thing is that ships visit Dublin port regularly.
It is important to offer social and practical help to seafarers. We also desire to help them spiritually and to help them to know about God's love and grace. We have already started Bible studies with some seamen on board once a week. We encourage them to share God's Word with other seamen on board and to have fellowships to build a church at sea. In the past many Irish missionaries went to other countries as a missionary. These days the world is coming to us and I am excited about this new mission field.
As the world comes to our shores every day we long to see the number of churches on the oceans grow. But we cannot do this alone! We need a team of helpers who will stand behind us prayerfully and practically in various ways. As the Lord has promised in Matthew 18:20, "Where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them." Will you 'come together' with us as we start on this new venture for the Kingdom?
Thank you for praying for us,

Development of movement behaviour
Parents should provide the incentive at an early age
In our society, although many parents actively encourage suitable and progressive mental development of their children, they all too frequently neglect to develop the movement behaviour of their offspring from an early age. The consequences of this deficit are clear to see: more and more children and young people are overweight, in many cases even obese, which in turn often leads to serious secondary complications. One very significant reason for this is simple lack of adequate movement: energy input and energy utilisation are then not in a healthy balance, even at ages of rapid growth. Dr. Axel Armbrecht, medical director of the German Institute for Movement Therapy (Eutin), therefore calls for parents to provide sufficient and suitable movement incentives, even when their children are still toddlers. "Make for your child a crawling pen with a lot of cushions of different sizes", Dr. Armbrecht recommends. A child that does not have adequate opportunity for crawling will later find it very difficult to react to changed floor surfaces and positions.
It is also very important that children be trained in unaccustomed movements from the earliest age. One simple example for practice: after baby's diaper has been changed, various points on his body are daubed with cream. The baby is then encouraged to go look for this spots of crème and point to them.

Asalaamu 'Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakaatuh,
Greetings of peace and blessings to you all, and welcome to my second blog entry pertaining to The Nativity- An Islamic Glance.
As previously discussed, Mary (Peace be upon her) was the daughter of Imran and Hannah. Hannah was childless all her life and would invoke God to bless them with a child, and thus He did. Anne pledged to give this child in the service of God in particular to His house, The Mosque in Jerusalem Bait Al-Maqdis.
This blog will shed light upon the life, virtues and blessings bestowed upon Mary (Peace be upon her).
The dispute of Guardianship
Hannah was true to her word and addressed her people, telling them about her oath. The only issue at hand was that since she was young, someone will have to take care and guardianship over her during her time in the Mosque. Everyone knew that it would be an honour to take care of such a special child and thus many people stood forward to be Mary's guardian. Prophet Zakariya [Peace be upon him (known as Zachariah in Christianity)] was the first to step forward, since he was related to Mary and her family. However, many others wanted this honour as well and thus a dispute broke out over who should be her Guardian during her time in service to Allah. And so they decided to draw lots to resolve the matter, which has two different narrations pertaining to it. The first narration states that the pens that used to write the Tawrah (also known as the Torah) were cast into the river, and a young child was instructed to draw a pen from the river thrice, and each time the name of Zakariya was drawn. The second narration mentions that several pens were cast out into the river, and the pen which went against the current would be the chosen individual. Again it was Prophet Zakariya (Peace be upon him). Regardless of narration, Allah had selected him to be the guardian and carer of Mary (Peace be upon her), and how a fitting selection, since he was a Prophet of Allah and the most knowledgeable from among the people. Not only was this a virtue and blessing for Maryam, but also for Zakariya himself, as it was Allah's will to inspire him through Maryam, as we will come to see later on.
Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) spoke about Prophet Zakariya (Peace be upon him), mentioning that he was a carpenter by trade and would eat from his daily earnings. Thus Zakariya was an honest and sincere person and an example to those around him.
Zakariya built Maryam a separate room above the Mosque, where Maryam could reside and be in constant devotion to Allah. Since the associates of the Mosque were mainly men, this room of residence gave her ample room for convenience as well as privacy, thus there was no compromise in her modesty and chastity. Classically, such a room/chamber is known as a Mihraab in Arabic, derived from the root word Haaraba, the meaning of which is 'to wage war'. Now what kind of war is being waged here? Not a war on the battle field but a war against one's Nafs (ego or lower desires). Maryam (Peace be upon her) was implicitly fighting her human ego sacrificing her energy and strength and ultimately her life for the pleasure of Allah, by staying within the vicinity of the Mosque and worshipping Allah. And she loved it. She craved the remembrance and worship of Allah. Thus was her love that when she was unable to remain in the vicinity of the Mosque due to her monthly cycle, she would exit and head towards the East, and remember Allah whilst she watching the sun to rise. It could be said that the remembrance of Allah was her lifeblood.
The sustenance from Paradise
Prophet Zakariya (Peace be upon him) would regularly check up on Maryam (Peace be upon her) within her chamber and he would find her in constant prayer and remembrance of Allah. He also marvelled at the fact that every time he entered the chamber, he found her in the presence of food and sustenance, in particular fruits which were not in season and thus not readily available within Jerusalem and Canaan. It's not as though they had facilities to store and preserve such food. He was intrigued and thus one day questioned her about it, which Allah talks about in the Qur'an. He says (about Zakariya) 'Every time he entered the chamber to see her, he found her supplied with sustenance. He said 'Oh Maryam! From where have you received this?' She said 'From Allah. Verily, Allah provides sustenance to whom He wills, without any limit' (Chapter 3, verse 37)
Notice how Maryam doesn't claim to have a lofty status or rank in the eyes of Allah, but rather she emphasises that it is all from Allah, and that he gives to whom he wills without any restrictions. So she is teaching and inspiring Zakariya to invoke Allah and beseech him, since he is The Giver. Maryam's reply has a deep impact on Zakariya and he invokes Allah there and then for a yearning he has had for many years. He learns that rather than him asking Maryam to pray for him, he himself should turn to Allah and ask him for that which he seeks, Allah says in the Qur'an 'At that time Zakariya invoked his Lord, saying: Oh my Lord! Grant me from You, a good offspring. You are indeed the All-Hearer of invocations.' (Chapter 3, verse 38)
Zakariya prayed for a child, since he and his wife did not have any children. Zakariya was an elderly man now, yet the words of Maryam increased his conviction in Allah hearing his pleas, regardless of his age. And thus, once Zakariya was stood in prayer, an angel called out to him saying 'Allah gives you glad tidings of Yahya (John) confirming in the Word of Allah (i.e. Jesus), noble, keeping away from sexual relations with women, a Prophet, from among the righteous.' (Chapter 3, verse 40) From this we learn that Allah is The All-Seeing and All-Hearing, and The Bestower of bounties upon his righteous servants. Regardless of our situation or condition, we should ask him and place our trust in his will.
We also learn how all the Prophets are beautifully connected and related, as well as how each one confirms and prophesises the coming of the next Prophet. All of this relates back to the verse in The Qur'an where Allah mentions how all the Prophets are connected through family, some offspring from others. The story of each prophet is not in isolation, but rather they are connected to the lives of each other; to the lives of their parents and forefathers. They are all organically intertwined and subtlety dependent on one another, because after all, the Prophets are brothers of each other. They were sent with the same message; same call; same intention. To ignite the dead hearts of mankind and rotate them towards The Light and Truth, being God. Peace be upon each and every single one of them.
In my next blog entry I shall discuss the glad tidings of a pure son given to Maryam (Peace be upon him), as well as the miraculous birth of this son (Peace be upon him the day he was born, the day he will die and the day he will be resurrected).
Thank you for reading and JazakumAllahu Khairan

Cell Cycle & DNA Damage Repair Poster
In normal cells, each stage of the cell cycle is tightly regulated, however in cancer cells many genes and proteins that are involved in the regulation of the cell cycle are mutated or over expressed. Adapted from the 2015 Cancer Product Guide, Edition 3, this poster summarizes the stages of the cell cycle and DNA repair. It also highlights strategies for enhancing replicative stress in cancer cells to force mitotic catastrophe and cell death.

Now here's a card with a theme I haven't been asked to make before - a card for a little boy who has a brand new baby sister. Not much inspiration out there but I hope I've stepped up to the challenge with this...
I used this ever so cute bird digi stamp I have had for a while - no idea where it came from! I printed a large version directly onto the base card and fussy cut a smaller version to be mounted in front. Both birds have been paper-pieced with some subtly striped LOTV/NitWits paper I got with a recent edition of Simply Cards & Papercraft. The greeting was done in Candy Round font.
I've entered this into the challenges at:
Sweet Stampin' Challenge - paper piecing
Hannah and Friends - paper piecing

Enjoy your weekend...

Notes From Bitcoin 2013• Lewrockwell.com
I'm at the Bitcoin 2013 conference in San Jose, California. The Winklevoss twins spoke last night at the conference. They are major Bitcoin owners. They come across as pretty decent preppie guys. The type you wouldn't mind going to a baseball game with or having a drink with, but their presentation on why bitcoins are here to stay was unimpressive.
Their presentation, and I am not exaggerating, came down to this:
1. Ghandi said that first they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win, therefore Bitcoin will succeed.
2. There was a guy who thought the automobile would never replace the horse, therefore Bitcoin will succeed.
End of presentation.
The real action was on the floor of the conference.

A Humble Heart Leads to Christian Joy
The apostle Paul wrote that, we Christians must 'examine' and 'test' ourselves, to find if we are walking close to God, and to make sure that we are still true to the faith (2 Corinthians 13:5). However, before we begin to examine our hearts under the searchlight of the Lord, we must understand that we as Christians can often fall into two categories. We are either a humble or a justifying believer. The humble believer has a penitent heart and is willing receive correction and repent. But a justifying believer is a person who claims to follow Christ, but spends time justifying questionable practices. The latter attempts to enjoy the best of the world, whilst still hoping that the door to heaven is open.
If we are going to go deeper with God and be used by Him, we must be humble and ready to receive His correction. Peter wrote that 'God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble' (1 Peter 5:5). The Bible also states that 'a man's pride will bring him low, but the humble in spirit will retain honour' (Proverbs 29:23).
We must understand that the Holy Spirit is always seeking to fill our lives and to do this, He urges us to surrender more to Him. God is always looking to take ground from the 'flesh' and He wants to fill areas of our lives that were once controlled by the enemy. His love draws us closer to Him, but as we come close to Him, our sin will be highlighted. It can be very challenging when God shows us something in our lives that needs to be changed and we can become discouraged. However, the Bible specifically tells us not be discouraged when God corrects us, or points at something in our lives that is wrong. He convicts us of sin because He loves us. In fact, His conviction is proof that He is thinking about us! We should be encouraged! 'Do not be discouraged when you are rebuked by Him; for whom the Lord loves He disciplines' (Hebrews 12:5-6).
As believers, we must learn to be able to receive God's correction and resist Satan's condemnation. God points out things in our lives that are wrong out of love and because He wants our lives restored. However, Satan wants to drag us down into a pit of discouragement, despair and condemnation. When God shows us something that is wrong in our lives, we should just agree with Him! Let's not justify our sins. Let's not allow Satan to try and condemn us. If God has shown us something, let's say, "Yes Lord I agree with you and I want to allow the Holy Spirit to sort this out in my life."
If God is going to fill us with the Holy Spirit, He must first encourage us to empty ourselves of self, the world and any attractions that come from the enemy. He does this by convicting us of sin and self. Whenever He convicts us, we must ask ourselves - Will it be His will or my will? Will I give way to God, or will God have to give way to me? We live in days when Christians are compromising and watering-down the requirements to walk with a holy God, but God does not change. Whilst this is the age of grace, it would be wrong to ignore the call to holiness because grace covers all of our failings.
Many wonder what has happened to the power that was once in the Church. We must recognise that we have moved away from Christ and therefore God's power has been removed from us. We may claim to have God among us because our emotions have been moved by excellent music, but have you considered that secular rock stars can also bring people to tears and God is not with them.
We all recognise that there are many things in our lives that are not right in the sight of a holy God; therefore, if we are going to change, it will have to hurt our flesh (Romans 13:14). Our own pride does not want to submit to God and therefore it will have to be crucified (Galatians 2:20). Meanwhile our spirit which is born again, will rejoice when we follow God. This is the reason why we often feel joy when we are walking with God, even if our circumstances are not great.
Getting close to God is like taking medication for the soul. Medication may not feel good when we first receive it, but in the long run it makes us better. Before we can be cured of the cancer of sin, we have to allow the Great Physician to take His scalpel to our lives and cut out the thing inside of us, which is killing our souls. Jesus explained that He is the Vine and we are the branches, (John 15). The Bible also explains that it is the little foxes that spoil the vine (Song of Songs 2:15).
Could it be that it is the little things that we don't notice (or let pass) should act as a warning that something bigger is at stake – perhaps even our destiny in God? Therefore we need to ask ourselves: Are we humble enough to receive correction from God? Will we listen when He convicts us of sin? We will humble ourselves and repent?
