Good luck to all of the Chinese students taking The National College Entrance Examination in China as I write.
There are some 9.4 million high school seniors taking the Examination this year. Let that sink in: 9.4 MILLION. 9.4 million people are taking the same exams on one day (from 9:00 AM today to tomorrow, and, in some places, until the day after). Obviously, there are different exams for people with different majors–Physics A and Physics B, for example–and there are differences among the exams given in different provinces, but really.
9.4 million people.
How many people are there in your town? Your city? Your state? Or even your country? Tens of thousands? Hundred thousands? Maybe even a million, if you're living somewhere really, really crowded?
Because I feel fairly certain that nothing involving 9.4 million people has ever happened in your country at a single time.
Certainly not something that consisted merely of several College Entrance Exams.
I mean, the NCEE is really stressful. It's R E A L L Y stressful. Some people probably can't even fathom how stressful it is, when you have to spend three years of high school preparing for this one be-all-end-all test, where a single lost point could mean the denial of your entry into the college of your dreams. Seriously. If you're a 文科生, you have to take English, math, Chinese, history, politics, and geography. If you're a 理科生, you must take English, math, Chinese, physics (of the branch of your choice), chemistry (also a branch of your choice, I think) and biology. Basically, in high school, you have to decide whether you're going to be good at math/science stuff, or languages/literature stuff. And your choice in turn decides which majors you can learn in university. It seems kind of unfair, that if you like physics but are really bad at chemistry you might have to turn to literature, but that's life for you. Most of my old classmates (girls) plan on learning literature–except for that one really ambitious friend I had who sort of hated girls (don't judge her, she was a really cool person–just kind of confrontational) who was adamant about her decision to learn math and such things well.
Personally, I'm conflicted, though. If I had to stay in China for high school, I would obviously pick literature, because I'm crap at chemistry and physics and biology, and I'm not that great at Chinese math, even though I like it. But then again, I hate history and politics, so…Anyway, glad I'm not staying here for that. I plan on being a Chinese-English/English-Chinese translator or intrepreter, which has to do with what I love (languages!) and not what I dislike (history, boooo). It would be awesome if I could continue to learn math, though, because I really like it, I just find it kind of difficult–and also very rewarding to learn. Calculus is super hard for me now, but hopefully, if I learn it well enough, I'll struggle less when I'm in college. I like learning physics, too, but it's harder for me, even harder than math, mostly because I've never learned it well, which is in turn because I loathed my first physics teacher (8th grade man with tiny eyes and bad teeth and anger management issues) and didn't put much effort into his classes. Which was immature of me, of course, so I'm regretting it now…
Anyhoo. Wow, writing this has taken me an hour or so because the site keeps acting weird and deleting things…funny. I switched a browser and now I'm fine.
I tried watching some movies yesterday, but…oh wait, I'm going to write about it tomorrow or soon. Not now. Sometimes I just can't think of what to say, so I feel like I have to resort to writing down some crazy bizarre dreams (I have a lot of them). Also, my paper diary is running out of pages, and I don't have a new one in stock, so I have to use it sparingly because I don't want to resort to just writing on lined paper (I only like writing my ~feelings~ in pretty notebooks).
Have a good Tuesday, and stay chill.
And remember to wish all the students taking exams, good luck!!

Several things struck me when I did go and see it. The first is just how impressive a building it is. The concrete frame is indeed a beautiful thing - whether squinting or not - and its rhythm of single and double height openings has a tectonic vivaciousness which puts it way ahead of most comparable buildings of its period. Or any other period come to that.
Secondly, its extraordinary formal ruthlessness in maintaining a single roof datum while stepping down a steep hill throws up all sorts of vertiginously exciting spatial moments. I particularly like the way that its gargantuan scale at the bottom becomes almost intimate and traditional at the top of the hill. The concrete frame - a thing of stark abstract beauty when seen from afar - becomes a richly textured and endearingly rugged object close up.
One can see clearly how the twisting and turning plan form was intended to create partly enclosed public gardens between the blocks although these have an inevitably somewhat desolate quality today. The gaps between these areas, crossed by high level walkways, have an undeniable spatial thrill as the spaces tumble down the hill and the frame marches relentlessly on. Musically this building has been compared to the stark futurism of Sheffield's electronic pop, from Human League to warp, although looking at it now it seems to have more in common with the Krautrock of Can. Its relentless metronomic repetition and thumping low end register reveal subtle modulations the more you look at it, like staring into a very deep river.
Given all that the state of the place at the moment is deeply ambiguous. The decision to rip out not only the internal flats but the external brick and window infill panels might be justifiable on any number of less well realised housing schemes but seems particularly odd here. The different shades of stock brick give the block its distinctive Brutalist/Late Corbusien quality. Like Corbusier's Unite, the building offers an intruiging collision of machine like precision and cultivated rusticity.
Most odd of all though is the half-built half-demolished aspect of the building at present. With a bunch of earth movers - possibly pointlessly - moving muck around and the tallest section of concrete frame standing gaunt and exposed, it's possible to imagine that Park Hill is in the process of being built rather than re-built. In this state it has a bittersweet quality, both brave new world and failed vision of the future at one and the same time.
Not that this failure is necessarily a fault of the building iself. It seems, in principle, an eminently liveable place, a machine for living in the best possible sense. It's often said that buildings look best when still under construction. Certainly that's true when you see the exposed shuttered concrete bones of contemporary office buildings soon to be clad in jaunty, bar code facades. But Park Hill is heading the opposite way. Not for ever for sure, and hopefully not for that much longer, but its concrete frame whilst undeniably striking and strange with the sun shining through it ultimately looks a lot better with people living there.

The Wounded Table
This is one of two large works that Kahlo painted, the other being "The Two Fridas". This painting measures approximately 4 feet by 8 feet. The extraordinary size may have been intentional as she knew it was going to be shown at the same exhibition where her "cheating husband" Diego was showing significantly smaller works.
Kahlo painted this work during her divorce from Diego Rivera, and her state of mind is reflected throughout this painting. The painting resembles a skewed version of "The Last Supper" with Frida playing the role of Christ at the center of the table. She is surrounded by an eclectic assortment of characters: Cristina's two children, a large papier-mâché Judas, a skeleton, a pre-Columbian sculpture and her pet fawn Granizo. The Judas, the skeleton and the pre-Columbian idol are three of the four characters in her earlier painting "The Four Inhabitants of Mexico City - 1938".
The oversized Judas
on Frida's right, dressed in blue overalls, represents Diego who betrayed
her when he had an affair with her younger sister Cristina. The figure
has his hands on the table as did the Judas that betrayed Christ. This
gesture may be symbolizing Luke's words at the Last Supper: "
behold the hand of him that betrayeth me is with me on the table (Luke,
22:21). Despite the betrayal, Frida allows the Juda (Diego) to protectively
place his arm around her.
To her left, the
skeleton is holding a strand of Frida's hair
perhaps she is flirting
with death. The pre-Columbian sculpture is intertwined with Kahlo, sharing
the same arm symbolizing her connection to her Mexican roots. The threatening
characters seem to be between the painter and the innocent figures of
the children and the fawn, making them unreachable. This painting contains
a lot of references to Frida's deformed leg and foot. The idol has peglegs,
the skeleton and the Judas both have bandaged and bloodied feet and the
table has flayed human legs. Perhaps she feels that her deformity in some
way contributed to her breakup with Diego. The idol has peglegs, the skeleton
and the Judas both have bandaged and bloodied feet and the table has flayed
human legs, all references to Frida's own deformed right leg and foot.
The two innocent children are the children of Frida's younger sister Cristina:
Antonio and Isolda.. They seem to be unaware of the situation or their
Frida worked on this painting right up to the last minute to finish it for showing at the January 17th opening of the "International Exhibition of Surrealism" at the Gallery of Mexican Art in Mexico City. In the 50's, there was an exhibition of Rivera and Kahlo works in Moscow. Two paintings by Rivera and Frida's "The Wounded Table" disappeared along with works by other artists. They were not with the rest of the collection when it arrived back in Mexico. In 1996 or 1997, art curator Christor Burrus claimed to have seen the three missing paintings in a storage warehouse that may belong to Moscow's Pushkin museum. Art historian Raquel Tibol learned of the discovery by Burrus and alerted the media and the government of Mexico. A representative of the Pushkin admitted having one of Rivera's paintings (Glorious Victory) since 1958 but did not comment on the other two. The director of Mexico's National Institute of Fine Arts contacted the Pushkin Museum requesting their return but got no response.
Contrary to the "stolen painting" theory, in a 1950 interview Kahlo stated that: "I gave it [The Wounded Table painting] to the museum in Moscow."

Painting "The Wounded Table"
pintando "La mesa herida"
La mesa herida
Esta es una de las
dos obras de tamaño mas grande que Frida pintó (la otra
es "Las dos Fridas")
Kahlo pinto este
retrato durante su divorcio de Diego Rivera y su estado mental se refleja
en todos los aspectos de esta pintura. La pintura parece una parodia de
"La última cena", con Frida haciendo el papel
de Cristo en el centro de la mesa. Está rodeada por un grupo ecléctico
de personajes: los dos hijos de Cristina, un enorme Judas de papier-mache,
un esqueleto, una escultura pre-colombina y su mascota, el venado Granizo.
El Judas, el esqueleto y el ídolo pre-columbino son tres de los
cuatro caracteres que aparecen en su previa obra "Los
cuatro habitantes de la Ciudad de México, 1938".
A su izquierda, el
esqueleto sostiene un mechón de pelo de Frida
la pintora está coqueteando con la muerte. La escultura pre-colombina
está interconectada con Kahlo, compartiendo el mismo brazo que
simboliza su conexión a sus raíces Mexicanas. Los caracteres
amenazantes parecen hallarse entre la pintora y las inocentes figuras
de los niños y el venado, haciéndolos inalcanzables. Esta
pintura contiene un montón de referencias a los deformes pie y
pierna de Frida. El ídolo tiene patas de palo, el esqueleto y el
Judas ambos tienen los pies vendados y ensangrentados, y la mesa tiene
piernas humanas desolladas. Quizás Frida sentía que su deformidad,
de alguna manera, fue parte de la causa de su ruptura con Diego. Los dos
inocentes niños son los hijos de la hermana menor de Frida Cristina:
Antonio e Isolda. Parecen no ser conscientes de la situación que
los rodea.
Contrariamente a la teoría del "cuadro robado", en una entrevista de 1950 Kahlo dijo que "Lo he dado [el cuadro "La mesa herida"] al museo en Moscú" (nota del traductor: esta frase ha sido traducida de la version traducida al ingles del libro,ignoro las palabras exactas de Frida Kahlo)

- May 1, 2010 at 1:45 PM
- Dixie said...
Your stars and sprigs is so gorgeous. Thanks for the applique tips - your applique is amazing. Multi colored fabrics can be a challenge to decide what color of thread to use, and I agree, good to use a neutral.
- May 1, 2010 at 2:05 PM
- sharon said...

Good Luck Janet , staying focused is not that easy you know. There are many temptations out there and sometimes a diversion is just what the doctor ordered.
Love the colours and your stitching is impecable
- May 1, 2010 at 3:46 PM
What great blocks! I too love Kaffe Fasset fabrics. Take a look at my Kaffe for All Seasonsquilt that I'm trying to finish.
Those Ikats and Shot Cottons are so tempting, not to mention the delicious Japanese silks.
Keep those blinkers on. You're doing great!

What a beautiful blocks, you've made. And you describe how you do your applique very well. Thank you. I understand your dilemma: wich projects to choose, so you can finish some in a certain timeline. I assume the klosjes are not one of the projects you work on at the moment?
- May 1, 2010 at 4:43 PM
- Deb said...
Excellent choice of project. Have just seen the original at AQC - and yours will be a truly beautiful version. Good luck resisting temptation - especially when all those lovely threads and cottons are beckoning!

We were asked to hand in our list of what we would be showing at our forthcoming exhibition and I hit a brick wall!!! Surely I have more than one quilt to show for the past 3 years!! I have been busy this week trying to do more blocks for my selvedge quilt. Hopefully I can finish this so that I don't disgrace myself completely. I did think that I may arrange my UFO's/WIP'S artfully in a corner!!! Ha!
Stay focused.

Don't those colors just make your heart sing?
I'm trying to do the same thing, Janet. Concentrate on one or two projects only. When I see progress, it gives me the incentive to press on.
Stars? Did I see stars? I love anything with stars so I was hooked at first glance!
Thanks for the invisible applique hints. Your explanation is perfect!

Your blocks continue to delight. This quilt will be a stunner. The shot cotton photo is terrific.
BTW, I was thumbing through some
magazines last week at the Japanese bookstore and glimpsed a photo of the kimono thimbles in a small ad. I knew that was going to happen!

Great plan. Some times I have to stop and regroup like this and having some finishes is really motivating. Love your sprigs, you are doing an amazing job recreating this pattern.

Sorry for the absence last week- we really weren't doing much cooking, so it would have been a very short post!
Up first: pseudo-cooking.
Olive bread, brie, avocado, onion, and homemade hummus. I love hummus at home- aside from the chickpeas, garlic, and olive oil, you can pretty much add whatever you want! I think this one was basil, serrano pepper, and olives. Super yummy little meal.
Grilling! Corn on the cob, and kebabs with zucchini, poblano and yellow peppers, onions, and garlic. We ate this before heading downtown for some cheese curds at the old-time car show. It was... an experience...
Mac n' cheese! I got the recipe from I Believe I Can Fry. It was so good. I topped it with broccoli so I could feel healthier, which was pretty yummy. It made enough for me to eat dinner, plus have meals for three days at work, and I probably could've stretched it beyond that. Next time I'd like to try it with more veggies rather than noodles, maybe some gnocchi, and try to cut back on the cheese/cream/whole milk business.
Now, I will be rather busy with moving for the next few weeks, but I'm also done with work this coming Monday, so the cooking should be pretty consistent. Also- spinach from the garden has been successful!

Crawford AuSable Soccer Association moving forward with plans for new field
Dan Sanderson | Staff Writer
Youth leaders are trying to kick up community support to develop an added soccer playing area in short order.
The Crawford County Board of Commissioners, at its regular monthly meeting on Jan. 25, approved a proposal for the Crawford AuSable Soccer Association to move forward with engineers to develop plans for the new field. The field would be adjacent to CASA's existing fields at the Crawford County Sports Complex.
Several years ago, the State of Michigan allowed Crawford County officials to transform the former fairgrounds property into a one-stop-spot for youth sports. Along with CASA, the Grayling Little League and Grayling Junior Vikings football have fields on the property. The AuSable Valley Animal Shelter is also located on the northwest portion of the property.
Northwest Design Group, a Petoskey-based engineering firm, will draw up plans and generate bid specifications for the new fields.
Last spring, Steve Bednar, the president the CASA Board of Directors, said the league had 23 teams totaling 200 players.
The two existing fields are reconfigured to provide a better playing surface.
"The kids beat the grass up pretty bad, so what we do is rotate our fields," Bednar said.
Depending on the age group of the players, fields are expanded for different levels of skill. Children can start playing soccer at four years of age. The games involve four players on the field and two players who take turns coming into the match.
"That gives the kids a lot of playing time, and you have only two on the bench, so they get rotated in real quick," Bednar said.
Teams reach up to 11 players, which is the same level for high school soccer games.
"If the kids get up to the high school, they've got 10 years of soccer in them," Bednar said.
The 400 feet by 500 feet section of land would accommodate two to three smaller soccer fields or one larger field.
Last year, the league had to create a smaller field by its concession stand area for younger players.
"We utilize every square foot that we've got," Bednar said.
CASA offers discounts to families with multiple players.
"Every dime that goes into CASA goes to the kids for insurance purposes, field purposes, and uniform purposes, and we try to keep our cost way down so people can afford it," Bednar said.
CASA is applying for a Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Passport grant to pay for the new fields. Passport grants are funded through the fees charged for permits to enter state parks and campgrounds.
Patrick Potter, a retired DNR forester who lives in Grayling, is helping CASA with the grant application.
The grant application deadline is April 1. The cost to develop the fields is $102,000. CASA will have to provide $25,000 in cash donations, in-kind labor or use of equipment in order to be considered for the grant.
Bednar, who has been involved with leading local youth sports for 35 years, said the whole goal of the project is to get kids outside and moving.
"We're just trying to make it work for the kids," Bednar said.
For more information or to assist with the project, contact Bednar at (989) 390-3607 or via e-mail at email@example.com.

It is a given that the broader Australian culture cares little for the positive memorialisation of soccer. Yet the game itself is not much better at asserting its own legitimacy or remembering its own belonging. Forgetting the game's history seems, at times, to be an imperative for soccer authorities. The transitions between significant stages of the game's history in Australia are moments in which deliberate erasure and voluntary amnesia have seemed to be vital strategies.
The rebadging of the game as soccer in the 1920s threw off the 'British' name in an attempt to both domesticate and internationalise Association football in Australia. Even though still heavily reliant on migration from Britain, an amateur and domestically Australian-Anglo-Celtic culture emerged from the English and Scottish roots.
After the Second World War the rise to dominance of the continental European migrant clubs (and a concomitant emergence of professionalism) enabled the forgetting of that pre-war culture. For many today, soccer in Australia only really started in the 1950s. And many of the 'ethnic' clubs are guilty of 'failing' to remember their own history of supplanting a previous culture. South Melbourne Hellas is a case in point. A complex history of mergers between Australian-Anglo, Jewish and Greek clubs is lost in the club's contemporary Greek-Australian identity.
The most recent act of substantial and brutal forgetting came in 2004 with the establishment of the FFA and the A-League, led by Frank Lowy and underpinned by the Crawford Report which advocated substantial and important changes to the constitution and management of the game. A policy of not just forgetting but also rejecting the game's past was adopted largely because the new soccer authorities believed in the unassailability of the dominant myths, ones that are still in need of dismantling.
In the perceived absence of a sustained and convincing counter-narrative of soccer's centrality to Australian culture, history became a no-go zone. Indeed the rejection of history was manifested in a 2006 World Cup advertising campaign expressing the Socceroos' intentions to play well above the level of the national team's historic mediocrity. Even if not intended, local history was a victim of the campaign and the powerfully significant contribution of the ethnic European clubs was forgotten in the blaze of negative memories of all that was 'wrong' with 'wogball'.
When the Socceroos beat Uruguay on penalties in November 2005 they did more than fulfil a long-cherished dream of almost all Australian soccer supporters to participate again in the World Cup. The result also seemed effectively to justify, first, the decisions made about the changing of the game's ethnic identity and, second, the obliteration of the many positive things that had come from the wogball period and the eighty years before that.
Yet a review of the names of the scorers in that penalty shootout enables a profoundly beautiful realisation to emerge. Kewell, Neill, Vidmar, Viduka, Aloisi: individual players representing and embodying a progression of waves of Australian immigration: English, Irish, Slovenian, Croatian, Italian. Add the names of the crucial game-time goal-scorer Bresciano and the goalkeeper Schwarzer, responsible for two heroic shootout saves, and the multicultural diversity of Australian soccer is revealed in all its power and glory. And that is something worth remembering.
The internal denial of history is an ongoing and crippling problem for Australian soccer. The game's millions of stakeholders deserve to believe that there are reasons for optimism that the game's profound lack of self-belief and feelings of illegitimacy and unbelonging can be turned around at both national and state level. Denying the contribution of wogball past and present is simply no way encourage that belief.

One Direction star Harry Styles's rumoured relationship with American television reality star Kendall Jenner, is reportedly "causing a lot of unrest" among his bandmates.
Styles was first linked to Jenner in November when they were spotted leaving a dinner date at Craig's restaurant in West Hollywood.
"Kendall's a sweet girl, but they [the One Direction boys] see her as a bigger threat than Taylor Swift ever was," a source reportedly told OK! magazine.
"Kendall seems to have cast a spell over Harry, and it's disrupting other areas of his life because he's always wanting to spend time with her or chat with her on the phone when they're apart. It's causing a lot of unrest."
The two were recently spotted at the Eagles concert in LA with the model's half-sister Khloe, 29, her mother Kris, 58, and several friends, including the US chat show host, Handler.
"[Harry] seems to be losing interest in the band. The other day, Harry and Niall almost [fought] when Niall confronted Harry when he showed up to a meeting," the insider is quoted as saying..
However, the pair's relationship will not be affecting the band and their future.
"The relationships of the boys are not and will not break up the band," a source close to Harry told Hollywood Life. "One Direction as a band is as strong as ever. [Harry's relationship] won't ruin the future of One Direction."
It was previously reported that Jenner was organising Styles's 20th birthday party, along with Nick Grimshaw.
"Kendall is in charge of organising the party, alongside Radio 1 DJ Nick Grimshaw. She wanted the party to be in London so that Harry's friends and family could all be there," a source told The Daily Star.
"The rest of One Direction and a whole host of other celebs will be on the guest list. It won't be a tame affair, and Kendall will pull out all the stops to make sure it's a night to remember."

A couple more articles have come out about my debate on Monday night with a campus street preacher (see previous post here). The Columbia Tribune has a very good article today that covers many of the arguments from the debate. Yesterday, The Maneater (an MU student newspaper) had a piece that mostly covered the street preachers but had a section about the debate (although they did spell my name wrong--apparently the debater was that NPR guy).
If you have come here from the Columbia Tribune article and are looking for information about my book (For God's Sake, Shut Up!: Lessons for Christians on How to Speak Effectively and When to Remain Silent), you can read the description from the publisher here, read praises for the book here, and read the introduction here. You can buy it from the publisher or from other places like Amazon. I hope you find it worthwhile and enjoyable!

Everyone, once in their lives, gets stuck in a sex slump or a dry spell which may lead to absolute clueless ness on how to end the phase. It could be because you just got out of a long term relationship and weren't really ready to hit the sack with another person or you just haven't had enough opportunity with women to have random sex here and there. Whatever it is, it's really nothing to panic about.
A sexual dry spell can last for a year to a few months or even a few weeks. If you were regular at having sex and are experiencing a slump period, then even a week or two without it may seem unbearable and when you do get out of it, you may be a little confused about re-exploring your sexuality. Especially when you come out of a long term relationship where you've been having sex with just one person and want to come out of the slump stage. It's a tad difficult but definitely achievable.

Here are a few ways you can get back in the game like you never left, to begin with!
Get In Shape
Exercising really helps release a lot of pent-up sexual energy. It's good to hit the gym or do some yoga to release held up testosterones in order to not rush your sex drive when the times comes. Plus exercising makes you a happier person, so you're not frustrated or grumpy due to the lack of sex. Exercising also makes you perform and last better in bed, if you haven't had sex in a while i.e.
Go On At Least 10 Dates … Before Having Sex
Due to the dry spell, your expectations to have sex must have risen or lowered so it's wise to test the waters before diving in. Go on at least 10 dates with different women or the same to figure the aspirations you want to set for yourself and build that confidence you probably lost out on during your dry spell.
You will probably know, through going on different dates, how to go about the game all over again and if you want to indulge in just casual sex or emotionally involving sex or both. Once you build that criteria, your ego and your self confidence will be boosted on its own.

Indulge in 'Quickies'
Quickies don't necessarily lead to sex but they lead to sensual stimulation and increase in oxytocin levels. If you're having a dry spell while in a relationship it is best to indulge in short and intense cuddles or quickies that don't lead to sex but build anticipation and sexual self esteem. If you're just going out on dates to build that credibility again, making out sessions or quickies are a good way to get back to your active sex life. It also builds heaps of confidence to eventually go all the way.
Dial Down The Graphic Content
While it's healthy to indulge in porn and give yourself a treat every now and then, it's actually counter productive if you're trying to nurse your sex life back to good health. Porn can get a bit addictive during a dry spell because all your sexual energy is channelled there and there are very little attempt is made at finding something real. Porn may satisfy a short term craving but it's the wrong form of nutrition if you're trying to break a pattern.
Men who spend hours indulging in a digital fantasy may face social and sexual problems connecting with women altogether. We aren't saying stop watching porn altogether but if you wanna get out of that dry spell, log off for a bit and get real!
Change Your Style
Maybe it's time to change your style and your attitude and avoid fads. Keep it simple, keep it classic and create you own style that will organically attract women to you. Maybe you're still supporting a hairstyle that was big in the early 2000's or the clothes you wear were last seen on Clint Eastwood. A little change in style couldn't hurt really.

Try Out Online Dating
There are 1000 different ways to meet women and you really need variety while coming out of a dry spell. If you're out from a long term relationship, it wouldn't be such a bad idea to embrace online dating and see the kinda women you want to test the waters with. You'll be surprised to know how many fish you actually come across!
Be Prepared For Bedroom Malfunction(s)
After a long sexual haul, there is a possibility you may not be able to perform in bed as per your expectation. Pre-mature ejaculation or even flaccidity is a very temporary symptom of a sexual dry spell. There will always be fears, anxieties and pressure that will be part and parcel of someone trying to break away from a dry spell.
The trick is to not let them get to you and try and relax. The transition, although may take time, is quite smooth sans the nervousness. Just don't let the panic take you back to the slump!
Apart from all these things you can try, you must remember a dry spell is part psychological as well. It's your brain going into sleep mode, getting comfortable with not fending for a basic cardinal need. Sooner or later, the lack of sex does affect you psychosomatically and if you realise it's affecting you in a negative way, you know how to avoid a dry spell now.

You are viewing an Email identified as a Scam, It has the Subject "FROM: KENNEDY SLIMS" and it was received in one of Scamdex's honeypot email accounts on Sat, 06 Jan 2007 07:39:12 -0800 and has been classified as a Advance Fee Fraud/419 Scam. The sender was "kennedy kennedy" <firstname.lastname@example.com>, although that address was probably spoofed. It is recommended that you do not attempt to contact any persons or organizations referenced in this email, as you will expose yourself to scammers and, at the very least, you will be added to their email address lists for spam purposes.
FROM: KENNEDY SLIMS PLOT 102 RUE 12 KOUMASSI-ABIDJAN COTE-D'IVOIRE. ATTN :PRESIDENT/C.E.O DEAR, COW MEDICINE SUPPLYI know that this letter may not come to you as a surprise since your organisation is well advertised. However, I am writing based on the prevailing information I gathered concerning your esteem company in your country's chamber of commerce. I have full confidence that you can execute this business to our mutual benefit and I believe that you will not let down the trust and confidence I am about to repose on you.
I work with an ivoirian based public relations firm "AMIC". I work as the corporate affairs manager , between the 12 - 19 of January 2005, a seminar was held at BOUAKE, COTE D'IVOIRE of which I attended. In this seminar I was lucky to meet ALHAJI .A.U. BOSTRA, the president of MACDOWELS ETS. ALHAJI .A.U. BOSTRA is an accomplished businessman.
He is a multi-millionaire farmer with cattle farms in Mali, Niger, Kenya, Burkina Faso and Chad Republic. Moreso, he is the Greatest supplier of cattle and diary products to the whole of West Africa. On knowing my profession, he told me about the huge amount of money he spends on the purchase of a particular but very important cattle medicine. Precisely, he buys at US$5,000 a carton, sometimes he buys up to 1500 cartons. He asked me if my organisation can source for a cheaper supplier.
Back to my office, I discussed the business with my boss, he decided to handle the supplies by himself. We did market research and discovered that we can buy these medicines at EUROPE for US$2,000 per carton. We moved a proposal to Macdowels to supply him at US$4,800 per carton which he accepted.
I agreed with my boss that he will give me 15 % of the profit.On the 21 of February 2005, we made our first supplies of 420 cartons to Macdowels. My boss never gave me a dime. Instead he bought an old model and second handed 504 Peugeot car for me. Since then, my relationships with my boss have seized to be cordial. He never talked to me about Macdowels again.
Recently, I intercepted some letters from Macdowels to my boss. I was surprise to learn that my boss had made eight more supplies to Macdowels which I knew nothing about. Moreseo, Macdowels is requesting for more supplies of 1200 Cartons before the end of next month, these letters never got to my boss, instead I called ALHAJI A.U. BOSTRA The President of Macdowels and convinced him that I can arrange for an international supplier who can supply him at the price US$4,400 per carton, but that he (A.U. BOSTRA) will pay cash before lifting the goods.
ALHAJI A.U. BOSTRA is presently waiting for my foreign contact and me. For the moment he has stopped all contact with my boss. If you can handle this project please contact me immediately for details and negotiations as regards my commission.
Note : We buy 1,200 hundred cartons at US$2,400,000.00.We sell at US$5,280,000.00 our client pays cash before lifting of goods, and he must not know our purchase point at EUROPE.
Thank you and best regards. Kennedy Slims _________________________________________________________________Testez Windows Llive Mail Beta ! http://www.msn.fr/newhotmail/Default.asp?Ath=f
