The process and issues associated with design of a belt conveyor or belt conveyor system can be a daunting one for both
the novice and experienced engineer. Many Standards covering this subject matter are convoluted, making it difficult for
entrants to this area of engineering to begin to unravel the correct path to follow. This text steps through the logical design
process to be followed, building up from bulk material parameters, through the initial selection of components to refinement
of conveyor designs. For the experienced designer, all of the formulae required to prepare a conveyor design are clearly identified
and their use illustrated by pertinent examples.
BELT CONVEYORS Principles for calculation and design enables the results of computer design programs and
consultants to be verified by manual calculation and gives a clear understanding of how changes to various components can affect the
design of a belt conveyor.

You must have seen the commercial by now for the new season of The Biggest Loser. You know, the one where we can't help but notice that this time around there are three teenagers on board. Yup, meet Lindsay Bravo (13), Noah "Biingo" Gray (13), and Sanjana "Sunny" Chandrasekar (16) -- three teens that literally stopped me in my tracks the other night as I saw their faces span across my TV.
I get it. NBC wants to touch on the overarching problem of child obesity in our nation. Trainer Jillian Michaels told People that their involvement on the show is "about reeducating them and working on their goals." She also said that the show will serve as an "introduction to an active lifestyle and helping them feel better about themselves."
Yes, it's great that these kids are getting a handle on their weight. I think it takes a REALLY brave kid to do it on national television. I just can't help but wonder, though, would you want this for your teen? For me, I'm not so sure.
The stories behind these three teens are heartwrenching. Being bullied at school, constantly moving, feeling alone all the time -- they've been through a lot at their age.
I think what concerns me the most about these kids is the backlash that may come out online and in the media. While being bullied at school is hard and difficult no matter your shape or size, imagine how difficult it could be when forums are created to talk about the contestants on message boards, or Facebook pages even. I cringe thinking about the horrible things that some people might say.
I don't personally know anyone who would have the heart to talk down to these inspiring teens knowing that they're trying to better their lives; however, there are those horrible people out there. Those judgemental people. Those bullies that don't want to face their own problems so they pick on others. Unfortunately, being involved in such a major competition opens these kids up to those critics.
If I were a parent, knowing that kind of thing can happen and still allowing their kids on the show, I just don't know if I could handle it. Maybe I'm being too close-minded. For me, though, I just don't know if the benefits outweigh the risks. I'd try to think of every other possible thing I could do to help my child get fit before putting them out for all of America to see. You mean to tell me there's no gym they can join, trainer they can hire, or books that they could read together to inspire a positive change at home? I just don't believe it.
One thing's for sure, though. These three teens are three brave individuals. I'll be tuning in, definitely.
What do you think about these three teens being on The Biggest Loser? Would you allow your child to do the same thing?
Image via NBC
Yes, very concerned about the backlash. The teasing and name-calling. But then again, this is a great lifestyle change for the kids and maybe they will inspire other young ones to take control over their health. If I were a their age, I couldn't do it. Society is too cruel.
Yes, they will be on TV. The article also clearly stated they will be doing this from home and their weight will NOT be displayed. Althought bullying is a big issue, most people are not jerks and will probably be very supportive. I think it's a great idea. Their parents let them get this way, so someone has to teach them proper nutrition and excercize.
They're teenagers with health concerns and asking for help - obviously their parents aren't equipped to help them, so I see no issue with this. Sure, some little jerk will probably say something mean on Facebook. But some little jerk is probably already saying something mean to their face or behind their back. They're taking an opportunity to educate themselves and improve their health, which might lead to less teasing than they're probably already subjected to, among other things. If it was completely their decision, then I think it's a good thing for them.
WOW! So if the kid is fat it's the parents fault? A fat 5 year old is probably the parents fault. A fat 16 year old? I think not. No parent of a teenager controls their food intake all day. At best you get one meal to prepare and see them eat. The rest of the time they make their own decisions about what to eat. I was raised in a home where we ate healthy and did not have junk food. I gained 20 pounds freshman year of college. I came home from break FAT. I figured it out. My parents were not to blame for my weight. Not then, not now. I have two kids. A "fat" one and a skinny one. They are both fine. I stress healthy meals and moderation. Can we just support these kids who are putting themselves out there with positive comments. God bless them and the parents for trying to make a change.

Warriors add a new teammate
- Updated: January 31, 2012
|Courtesy: Merrimack College Athletics
Merrimack hockey recently added another team member to its nationally ranked roster. The Warriors welcomed their newest teammate on the ice at the Fenway Park Holiday Skate on January 3rd. 11-year-old Tim Burke woke up at 6 a.m. before the 7 p.m. event.
"I was so excited to meet the team, I couldn't sleep," he said. "It ended up being even better than I expected."
Tim is undergoing treatment for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, and was paired up with the Merrimack hockey team by Team IMPACT, a local organization which matches children who have critical illnesses with college athletic teams.
Team IMPACT first approached Tim, who resides in South Boston, about joining the Boston University Terriers. But the young hockey fan had begun following Merrimack's rise through the national rankings last year, and he wanted to be a Warrior.
"We've welcomed him with open arms," said sophomore assistant captain Jordan Heywood. "We want to give him courage, and something to fight for. We're there for him."
Tim is in the middle of 2-1/2 years of chemotherapy. As the Warriors burst onto the national hockey scene last year, Tim was fighting his own battle. After being diagnosed with leukemia, he developed a severe infection last winter which landed him in the Children's Hospital intensive care unit, and in August he fractured his foot and back, as a result of the bone-weakening chemotherapy.
Head coach Mark Dennehy explained that this relationship with Tim could "spark emotions some players have not dealt with," and that there were support systems in place for those players.
"Timmy" joins the team in the locker room before games, makes up secret handshakes with players, and frequently texts his older teammates. He describes the team as very nice, and very funny.
"This is like any friendship that evolves over time," said Heywood. "He'll support us at our big games, and we'll go visit him if he's in the hospital. He gives us perspective, and a reason to dig a little deeper."
Tim's treatment often prevents him from attending games, but he sent a text message to Heywood before the January 13 Hockey East match-up against the University of Maine.
"I said good luck, and to score a goal for me," Tim said. "I was just trying to give him some motivation."
Heywood scored a goal in the first period, in what would go on to become Merrimack's 12th win of the season.
"The morning after the skate at Fenway, he told me, 'I've only been a warrior for twelve hours and I already love it,'" said Tim's mother, Mary Kelly Burke. "It's nice to see him smile again."
Tim, who predicts that Merrimack will win the Hockey East Championships, has big dreams of his own. He is currently applying to Boston College High School, "where Joe Cannata and Coach went," he says. He hopes to one day be the general manager of the Boston Red Sox.
In the meantime, Tim has already won the friendship and respect of his teammates.
"Tim is an amazing kid with a huge heart," said junior Kyle Bigos. "He's always smiling and happy and it's contagious. I've been able to hang out with him a couple times and it's always something I look forward to."
Added Dennehy, "There's no question that the players get more out of this than Tim. It allows them to remember when they were his age. I think life wears you down quite a bit, and this childlike approach is beneficial. It takes them back to when they played hockey for the fun of it."

Cancer Health Center
Study: Vitamin C May Fight Cancer
New Twist on an Old Theory
The idea that vitamin C might protect against cancer is more than half a century old and has been "colorful and emotionally charged," says Levine.
The theory was discarded 20 years ago by many scientists when other researchers found no benefit in giving vitamin C to patients with advanced cancer. In that study, vitamin C was given orally, not intravenously, notes Levine.
Scientists may not have considered that injected vitamin C might work differently than oral vitamin C, Levine explains.
Unexpected Result
Levine's team didn't start by studying vitamin C and cancer. Instead, they were probing nutrition and vitamin recommendations in healthy people.
Normally, the body tightly controls vitamin C taken by mouth. It quickly gets rid of too much vitamin C. Injected vitamin C bypasses those controls, says Levine.
"I realized that concentrations given intravenously at higher doses could be much higher than could ever be achieved by mouth," he says. "This is not nutrition use of ascorbic acid. This is potential use of ascorbic acid as a drug, and it must be said, it's not ready for prime time."
Diet Recommendations
Science has a lot to sort out about vitamin C and cancer. Meanwhile, Levine recommends eating your fruits and vegetables. These include orange and grapefruit juice and fruits, raw red peppers, strawberries, and broccoli.
"Independent of this work, our recommendations are to consume vitamin C through foods and eat at least five varied fruits and vegetables a day," he says.

We stuffed our faces at the best restaurant in NYC: Madison Square Garden. That white T-shirt didn't stand a chance.
Maybe it's because we're "tastemakers", maybe it's because we're "fucking slobs"--whatever reason, the good people giving The World's Most Famous Arena a facelift invited Maxim to dig into the new, equally renovated food that is going to fill the screaming faces of Rangers and (fingers crossed) Knicks fans this season. The upshot: Last night, Madison Square Garden was full of celebrity chefs, cranking out food so delicious we reserved our own private bathroom for the next 48 hours just to be sure we could go hog wild without worry. Here are some of the highlights. (Caution: reading this on your lunch break may cause the urge to stomp your Subway sandwich to death.)
Eat this: Chicken Hot Dog with Kim Chee and Spicy Mustard
Where: Simply Chicken
Who made it: Chef Jean-Gorges Vongerichten
We were suspicious that world-famous chef was trying to sneak some healthy bullshit by us, but hot damn, this spicy bastard was delicious. Rest in peace, boring-ass foot-long wieners!
Eat this: Cheese Bratwurst Weinkraut and Mustard
Where: Sausage Boss
Who made it: Chef Andrew Carmellini
Step aside Tony Danza, Chef Andrew is the Boss. The sausage boss has created a cheese-filled meat missile that would make the ghost of Mike Ditka weep. (What's that? He's not dead? Sorry, coach.) The animals that were ground up into this dish should feel honored.
Eat this: Lobster Shrimp Roll
Where: Lobster Shrimp Roll by Aquagrill
Who made it: Chef Jeremy Marshall
If Aquaman and The Little Mermaid had a baby, and that baby became an underwater celebrity chef who was able to trick its bestest sea friends into a nicely toasted potato roll, it might taste something like this. The shrimp gave some crunch, the lobster was sweet and succulent and the mayonnaise provided just the right amount of throat lube. Too food porny? Yeah, probably too food porny.
Eat this: Daily Burger with Cheese and Bacon & Onion Jam
Where: Daily Burger
Who made it: Chef Drew Nieporent
Is it hyperbole to say this is the best burger we've ever eaten? Yes, if hyperbole means "100% truth." Holy God in Heaven, the diced-up thick bacon mixed in with cheese and the relish had us going back for thirds on this bad boy. If there was a show called meat patty hoarders, we would have been on it, as our table was piled high with empty Daily Burger cartons. Thanks for the tasty memories, MSG cooking people, do you have any elastic-band pants we can borrow? Go Rangers!

Housing and Meals: Living with Spanish hosts during the term is an integral part of the program; it gives students an inside perspective on Spanish society not available in a dorm room. Students complete a housing questionnaire as part of their application, and after acceptance are carefully matched with families or single adults who are eager to welcome students into their homes. The host provides a room, three meals per day, laundry service, and all linens and towels.
Activities: An added benefit of the program are the co-curricular activities. The conversation partner program pairs U.S. students with Spanish conversation partners and is a great way to meet local students. By means of the MENTOR Program, foreign students can take advantage of the help of a Spanish student from their same campus to settle into university life. The host student will give advice on accommodation, campus life and other practical matters. The University of Oviedo also offers many activities for visiting students, including a full week of cultural activities in place of classes. During this week, students sign up for lessons on topics like dance and cooking, and are also involved in a variety of events like movie screenings and showcases.
Field Trips and Excursions: As a necessary complement to classroom teaching, a varied recreational and cultural program is offered. It includes visits to the most interesting places of the city and its surroundings, excursions to the seaside and mountains, as well as to the prehistoric and historic monuments of the region. In these excursions, lecturers and university students guide foreign students.
Travel: Students may choose to travel independently throughout Spain and in Europe during free weekends. Within Spain, trains and buses are economical and offer many scheduled options. For destinations further afield, discount airlines like Ryan Air and Easy Jet, allow students to travel at low cost. Students can fly directly from Oviedo to a number of destinations including London, Barcelona, Madrid, and Ibiza. Student hostels abound in Europe and offer inexpensive accommodations—plus websites with reviews now allow students to research hostels and even book ahead of time very easily. We recommend purchasing a good guidebook for Spain (and Europe if you plan to travel) before departure—the Lonely Planet and Let's Go series are popular with students.
"My semester in Oviedo was definitely one of the best experiences that I have had at Rollins. If I had to give just one piece of advice to incoming students, I would tell them that they have to study abroad. Living in a country for a semester or a whole year is completely different from just visiting on vacation. I had previously traveled to southern Spain for just four days while I was on Semester at Sea, but being able to actually live in an Asturian household, eat the amazing local food everyday, make new Spanish friends, and just live the Spanish lifestyle really helped me to become absorbed into their culture. Some of my favorite memories from my time in Oviedo were when we would just go walk around the city or the parks and then share a café con leche and churros at one of the quaint cafeterías. Some of the great benefits of this program are that Paco, the resident director, takes the entire Rollins group on excursions about twice a month to local cultural and historical sights, and he also pairs each student with a Spanish conversation partner so that they get the chance to meet local students and practice their speaking skills. I still keep in contact with our conversation partners and a lot of the friends I made while in Spain, and I even went back to visit them in Oviedo for Christmas the next year. We all made so many great memories and friends that we'll never forget during our semester in Asturias, and I know I would do it all over again right now if I could."

Wii Remote Accessory of the Day: BBC Worldwide and Blue Ocean have teamed up to produce a Wiimote expansion modeled after Doctor Who's iconic multitool, the Sonic Screwdriver. The attachment will be released in October to coincide with the release of Doctor Who: Return to Earth — the first Doctor Who video game developed exclusively for the Wii.
Meanwhile, Return to Earth's Nintendo DS counterpart, Doctor Who: Evacuation Earth, will receive its very own Sonic Screwdriver-like DS stylus.
An accessory I will get to go with a game I will get.
well, this is just perfect for the Wii playing room in my TARDIS.

This is by far the best location I have ever been too. Everyone is so nice and laid back. Definitely digging the vibes of this store !
This is the best place in Canton .excellent customer service. Thank you u haul
Put mini fridges in the truck lol
Check and Deli was wonder..... They were friendly and knowledgable.... I know some reviews said the neighborhood looked sketchy but they maintain a safe environment.... I would highly recommend this location....!!
I was pleasantly surprised how efficient and quickly I was processed both when picking up and returning the trailer.
Once a reservation is put in place but no truck is booked yet someone needs to call the customer. Waited almost a week still no email confirmation on a truck and then I had to call You-Uhaul to finally get a truck. Does not seem like anyone cares up front about the customer. Once I called the guy worked hard to make sure he took care of me.
Truck had oily substance in back, appliance dolly was not with truck and had to go to another location to pick it up.
I had 3 pieces of equiptmen I rented and none were at the location I selected weeks in advance. Had to drive to multiple locations and ended up getting all equiptment 3 hours after I was originally supposed to pick it up! Will never use this service again.
Everything was so nice. The shop was a little different but everyone there was soooooo nice and helpful. Excellent experience.
Lots of distractions from other clients but rental agent was courteous and efficient through it all
Nobody readily available to help disconnect the trailer. My nephew had to move the trailer with the other ones manually.
The wire to power the trailer lights was chopped off and they did not have another trail that was in proper working order. It was very risky pulling this trailer at night!
The store (if you want to call it that) did not have anything uhaul, moving, towing related, I had to drive five miles down the road to an auto parts store to purchase a hitch mount and ball. The only positive was the staff, very helpful and friendly.
The business was closed and the rental was a trailer. The neighborhood is such that one might fear a theft of the trailer. I'm not inferring that was imminent, only that it gives that appearance. I took photos at the drop site to prove I had dropped it. Maybe the business has a camera focused on the lot to identify returned equipment.
This guy was a total wreck. Took 35 minutes for him to even get to me because he was so ignorant of the computer. Took forever with customer who was there before me. I wanted to jump behind his counter and type for him

Jason's Clean Slate
House Call
Name: Jason Hanasik
Location: Tenderloin — San Francisco, California
After an unfortunate and sudden breakup, I found myself in need of a relatively inexpensive apartment in San Francisco. I put out an open call on my Facebook profile for neighborhood recommendations and most people said, "Anywhere but the Tenderloin!" Against their better judgement I stumbled into the beauty of a studio apartment (about 415 square feet) one day after work and fell in love — the light, the fire escape right outside of the main room (which totally reminded me of West Side Story), and the saturated hard wood floors.
Having sold everything before moving in with my ex, all I had when I arrived was my library of books and images, cameras, and clothes. It was terribly exciting to have such a clean slate (and good bones) for what would become my first apartment (that I lived in without a roommate or boyfriend.)
Some of the requirements: a large enough space to create multi image installations, a large blank wall for screening movies and works in progress, and a separate bathroom and kitchen area from the main living space.
My style is clean, inexpensive basic pieces mixed in with DIY design elements, photographs, artworks and family artifacts such as a family radio and amber decanter.
In my artwork, I tend to focus on the emotional lives of men. I wanted to live with that type of imagery in my house. I also wanted easy access to my library of photo books, theory, criticism and fiction. The various stacks of books allow me to peruse various images and parts of essays and short stories nightly!
Thanks Jason!

What is that gray paint color? It's fantastic...very nice space too!
I'm sorry, but I don't see any photos.
You're a strong man, taking it all in stride, making the best of a new and sudden situation and seeing that the future is yours. I know you'll get loads of support here, you've come to the right place. This must be cathartic, too, in a way. I hope it all has a happy outcome for you! My thoughts are with you as you plunge forward.
Sorry about the breakup, Jason. But, you are totally on the track with this place. Amazingly done! I would've never imagined any apartment in Tenderloin has such potential. Great job!!!
I love how open everything feels. Is that a projection on the wall? What a great way to get a "Big Screen" in to a small space! So clever... I also love the Polaroids on the wall. Inexpensive I assume, but very cool.
Love the photographs? Is the B&W one to the conspirators? Did you take the color photo with the man walking in the outdoor corridor? Is your work for sale somewhere?
Love it, love it, love it!
This is a really nice pad, like it! The tenderloin gets a bad rap but there are some nice apartments such as your for a fraction of the cost and you are near some really great cheap ethnic eats.
They're so much cooler than me.
The glimpse of the kitchen, that wall color above the white is lovely.
what's wrong with the tenderloin area? (ignorant canadian here :D)
Love your place Jason! Sorry about your break-up. Time heals all wounds. Love the paint colors and your photography, especially the one in the entrance. How are you doing the movie on the wall? I'm a book and movie fanatic too, and my son is a videographer. Keep up the good work, and hang in there!!!
love the Lewis Powell photo
formosagirl - The Tenderloin is an area of San Francisco located near downtown, with many lower-income and SRO apartment buildings. For many years it's been an area with a high crime rate and a number of homeless or druggie residents.
This is only one face of the neighborhood, other facets include a thriving inner city life, diverse ethnic groups, social services to aid people in need, and a growing movement within the area to provide a safer space for the not-insignificant number of families and children living in the neighborhood.
Jason, your home is lovely, and I wish you much enjoyment of the space.
Seriously, do you even know how cool you are? This is an amazing space. It's so open and fresh, perfect for a new beginning.
By the way, I'm fascinated with image #2. Is that a photo on the wall next to the bed? Or a mirror? whatever it is, I like it. And that light coming from the closet? It's like a scene from Being John Malkovich. What's going on in there? I love it!
The green in the kitchen is surprisingly inviting.
nice space... i often wonder what it would be like to start from scratch again (but hope i never do). kudos for the bounce-back.
fwiw: you might think to check with your insurance agent and have a few of your pieces "listed" on your renter's insurance policy with specific values attached (especially if you use them for your work... and get the gadget-toy/business-tool straight with the agent, else you'll get hosed come settlement time). looking around your place, i'm seeing a 4X5 and rangefinder (and i'm guessing a digiprojector connected to a laptop) that wouldn't be too hard to carry down that fire escape... the tenderloin is still the tenderloin.
Jason, did you enlarge the Lewis Payne photo yourself? It's amazing.
And a toast to your new life in the 'Loin!
Times are though when you loose your SO and your home...
Contrats to your new pad! Looks great, I love the avocado green in the kitchen.
More please!
Yeah, more photos please! I like what i see so far.
I love this. Congrats on making a beautiful fresh start out of a bad break!
Congratulations! What a great space!
Love your place... And strangely I had just finished searching for a studio. I'm also in the same predicament and turned to A.T. for some inspiration/take my mind off the situation when - I stumbled on your House Call! Thank you for that.
Congrat's & much luck to you in your new place!
Well done; very nice place. Better luck in your upcoming romantic adventures!
Sorry for your break-up! I admire you for channeling all of those emotions into creating such a fantastic and clear-sighted space! You clearly have a great eye for design and beauty- I love the print in the front hall - and that you placed it there; I love the little 'montage'? of photos on the living room wall next to the fire escape and the huge photo behind the bed. I like the way the rug demarcates the bedroom space and that it's a comfy and inviting looking space too. I'd love to see more of your place - like where your guests sit and the kitchen (which looks very clean and inviting). Also I was painting a room a lighter gray and have stopped work hoping you will share those colors! Grays are challenging to get right - and you did it! good luck to you, thanks for linking to your work...
Hi everyone, first and foremost, thank you so much for your encouraging comments. I really, really appreciate it. I have been following AT for years and this experience has kind of blown my mind. I have to give props to my ex though, he has/had incredible style and some of the design cues were lifted directly from our old place.
To answer a few questions. I chose three shades of gray. The wall in the first image is the lightest. A door (which can can only be seen slightly in the second image) is a medium gray and the baseboard of the main room is the darkest gray. I will post the colors tonight. (I can't remember the exact names right now but I purchased the paint at Home Depot. The colors are in the Behr Premium Plus line.)
Yes, that is a projection on the wall. I have a small closet directly across from the projection (to the left of the kitchen) which I have converted into a workstation (I can remove the door very easily.) I placed one of these (http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/40103727) inside of the closet after seeing it featured here on AT (fits perfectly). It provides a standing desk/workstation for when I am scanning negatives, projecting movies, or just dancing around and need a home for my laptop. The projector is an Epson Powerlite 705HD projector. It's incredibly bright and has a short throw (which means a big image in small spaces) and the quality is quite amazing.
The big image is of Lewis Powell. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_Powell_(assassin)) I actually used the jpeg provided via wikipedia. A little photoshop knowledge (play with the contrast a bit to make the edges appear sharper on lower res images) and some friends at Kinkos seems to go a long way. I took the rest of the photographs in the house (except for the polaroids. Those were made by a friend of mine.) @RunyonStyle Yes, my photographs are for sale through my gallery: http://www.krisgravesprojects.com/. If you want to see a larger selection of my work: www.jasonhanasik.com.
@creative license I hate the overhead light in the main room, so, I set up two smaller lights in the closet. One that you can see and the other one is, unfortunately, not in any of the images. Because the space is so small I wanted to open the closet up to make it feel larger. A third light, which is pictured, sits next to my bed on the toppled speaker. btw, thank you so much for your super kind comment. I will have to revisit Being John Malkovich. I haven't seen that movie in years and remember loving it!
@E.I.F. good luck. it will get easier. give Francis in the Lights (a new band I recently found via modern tonic) a listen. might help, might not.
@momafan I was really nervous about seating with guests. I just had my first party a few weeks ago. I had about 20 people over for a screening. A friend of mine brought various pillows. I hide chairs in a lot of places (For example, the kitchen has the four chairs for the kitchen table plus two more stashed away in various nooks. I also have two out on the fire escape. (those are folded up and strapped down for safety reasons) After the party, I realized that I loved the way the pillows made people who had never met sit closer together, etc, so, I am having a few pillows made for my next screening. I think I am going to go the route of gingham. Maybe something like this or in black and white: http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=749995012&tid=gosz1r&kwid=1&ap=7
@redneckmodern, thanks, yeah, I just acquired the projector and a bluray player. The renter's insurance was immediately updated. The tenderloin is a crazy and wonderful place which never ceases to amaze me; however, the reality is that petty theft happens all the time. Thankfully, that fire escape only connects four other apartments and the alley it drops into is relatively secure. still, one never knows.
Thank you again for all of the comments!!!
and yes, the green was a stretch for me. I love it now but believe me, I wasn't convinced when the paint was drying that's for sure.
What a beautiful focus on essential nurturing. I love the choices in this space.
Full house tour, please?
the tenderloin is going to be the hip place to be. stunning apartment. your talent inspires me!! hang in there jason.
i stayed at the phoenix in the tenderloin a couple months ago!
I love your amazing and inspiring apartment. As a Phoenix, you rose and will continue to rise, with your talent. I, too, have a similar backstory, after 25 years, we split and I took whatever I could pack and left. It was her house, not mine. Anyway, I'm about to be featured in an upcoming House Tour and hope that you will like it. If you're in LA - maybe we can meet and discuss. Stay on your path.
Finally! A real, honest to goodness, SF apartment. This looks real, and a place to live. Thank you for sharing.
Really beautiful place! It is so cool how you've been able to create the feeling of an open artist loft in a rental. By the way, not to be a creeper or anything, but I viewed your photos and recognized a couple pictures. You teach at ASUC Art Studio! I took a lighting class there with Carmen and really loved it. Your photographs are so quietly beautiful - I'm a huge fan :)
Amazing what you have done here. I've always had a soft spot for the 'Loin since living on Mason during grad school. :)
Can you give details on the black low bookshelf+bench? I love it and want to do something like it.
Great artwork.
Thanks again for all of the really sweet and endearing comments! Sorry for the delay with the paint colors.
Here they are:
lightest gray Sparrow 780F-4
medium gray Anonymous 780F-5
darkest gray Dark Granite 780F-6
(All Behr Premium Plus)
I should be in LA at the start of September hattyinla. send me a note and maybe we can meet up. Looking forward to seeing your house tour!
@Cayce I do teach at the ASUC art Studio at UC Berkeley. So glad to hear you enjoyed Carmen's class. She is a good friend of mine. Really amazing artist. I actually have four of her pieces in my kitchen!
@SweetCommunist: The bench is an Ikea Expedit bookshelf. I have had four people on it at one time without issue. (fingers crossed)

One rule for them...
I'm a member of the Solent Advanced Motorcyclists and have passed my IAM Test. The IAM was offering a Skills day at Silverstone which was not a "go as fast as you can" event, but learning about bike control and how your bike performs in various situations.
The IAM say these events "offer a controlled environment with out Street Furniture, Opposing Traffic, Side Roads and Pedestrians. The only vehicles on the circuit will be those involved in and with the training programme and they will be limited in numbers. There will be NO Racing, Time Trials or Pace Making of any kind involved in the course.
"The day will centre on three core skills Observation and Positioning, Progressive Braking and Accelerating, and the use of the gearbox to maximise vehicle control. There will be no more than 15 vehicles on the circuit at any one time."
I wasn't sure whether I'd need specific insurance for this event, so I contacted them and they said "if it's not on the public roads, your insurance won't cover you"
So it seems it's ok if Bennetts are organising it, but not if the IAM are...!

Will you be able to take part if you have more than 3 modifications on your bike??

The Super 8 125 is probably the most polished feeling scooter that Kymco make. It offers the sportiness of the Agility with the comfort of the Like. The ride has a nice feel to it and the finish on the dash, seat and pipes looks the best of the lot. It's well priced too.
298cc, 29bhp, 87mph, Insurance group
Practicality and convenience are where today's large capacity scooters come into their own. Such an example is Kymco's new 300i Downtown – we say example because it is a new arrival in a growing populace of big-bore four-stroke scooters.At £3999, the Kymco's 300cc capacity sits performance-wise between Suzuki's Burgman 200 and 400 machines, and matches Honda's SH300i. What sets the ...
125cc, bhp, 60mph, Insurance group
Famous Italian motorcycle brand Garelli is back with a new range of scooters and mopeds. The XO is effectively their flagship model and benefits from sharp looks, stable 16" wheels and decent disc brakes. It's a stylish and perfectly adequate town run-around - the only drawback is a slightly lacklustre engine.
125cc, 8.9bhp, 65mph, Insurance group
The BW's 125 is an off-road inspired scoot that goes nicely and looks even nicer - rugged styling marks it out as a small scoot aimed at blokes. At £2,499 it's not the cheapest 125 scooter on the market, but nice detailing and decent performance help to justify the price.
250cc, 21bhp, 70mph, Insurance group 7
Yamaha's YP 250R X-Max is a middleweight twist-and-go 'maxi-scooter'. It has all the practicalities of a conventional scooter with a bit more oomph for longer journeys and decent-sized wheels and tyres for cornering confidence.
278cc, 22bhp, 80mph, Insurance group 7
The GTS 300 Super is Vespa's biggest scooter to date and blends classic Vespa style with bang-up-to-date performance, refinement and sophistication. It's up to more than outings across cities and suburbia: get the extra luggage, load it up and it'll happily take you for a long weekend away touring. At 70mpg-plus it won't cost too much either, though a bigger ...
124cc, 14.5bhp, 73mph, Insurance group
The Runner is a long-term favourite in the scooter market, and for this year the original design was finally updated. Now four-stroke, the Runner is a sporty-looking and practical machine.

Sun-Times Library
Updated: October 4, 2013 6:07AM
As Woody Allen once said, "Eighty percent of success is showing up."
Excellent advice, we would say, and the importance of showing up starts early — in preschool.
Children who attend preschool are more likely to go to college and earn higher incomes, and are less likely to go to prison or rely on government assistance.
But in Chicago, a new study concludes, children in preschool have a fairly poor attendance rate as a group, and those who don't show up consistently may be paying a price. Chronically absent preschoolers are less likely to be prepared for kindergarten and less likely to attend school consistently in later grades. Children who consistently miss school in those early grades, in turn — and we know we're stating the obvious — fall behind academically.
"Chronic absenteeism is rampant among preschoolers in Chicago," according to the study, conducted by the University of Chicago Consortium on Chicago School Research in collaboration with the Chicago Public Schools. And the children "most likely to benefit from regular preschool attendance" — the kids who enter preschool with the weakest skills in recognizing letters, counting and such — were the "most likely to be chronically absent."
The absentee problem is especially serious among African-American children, who are almost twice as likely to be chronically absent than other preschool children — even after accounting for greater poverty among black children.
The irony of this is hard to miss coming on the heels of the nation's celebration last week of the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington. A primary goal of the great civil rights movement of the 1950s and '60s was equal access to a quality education for African-American children. Martin Luther King Jr. and other movement leaders understood that education is essential to social mobility, a sure-fire way to move up. Yet in Chicago it is African-American children before all others who are least likely to attend preschool consistently.
What then can parents, of all races and backgrounds, do for their children? Get them to school. And get them there every day, beginning with preschool, a crucial beginning wrung on the ladder of success.
The University of Chicago study, which followed 25,000 3- and 4-year-olds served by Chicago Public Schools preschool programs, found that almost half of 3-year-olds and more than a third of 4-year-olds were chronically absent during the 2011-2012 school year, meaning they missed at least 10 percent of the year.
The more days of preschool a 4-year-old missed, the lower his or her score on CPS' kindergarten readiness evaluation, specifically for math, letter recognition and social-emotional development. Equally troubling, children who are chronically absent in preschool are five times more likely to be chronically absent in the second grade.
Why are so many preschool students absent so often? More than half the time, according to the parents, the child is sick. Another 18 percent of the time, the parents said, there were logistical problems, such as a sick family member or siblings with a school day off.
The parents of chronically absent children are more likely to be single and young and in poorer health. They are more likely to rely on public transportation to get their child to school, and to live in neighborhoods with higher levels of poverty.
The solution to the problem in part — and this is largely the purpose of this editorial — is to educate parents about the importance of preschool. The study found that parents who stated that preschool attendance mattered — just as much as when their child was older — were far and away more likely to get their child to school each day.
A more radical solution would be for CPS to go to a full-day preschool program, rather than the current half-day. Many parents say half-day programs force them to find childcare arrangements for the rest of the day, and it didn't seem "too consequential" if their child missed just two or three hours. But given CPS' financial woes, moving to a full-day preschool program is not going to happen anytime soon.
Ultimately, the report's authors say, improving preschool attendance will require "a student-by-student, family-by-family approach," which is why it's good to see that CPS was a full partner in this study and already has begun to disseminate the results to preschool administrators and teachers.

Lack of adequate insurance coverage is one reason that the percentage of children who currently utilize mental health services is significantly lower than the estimated percentage of childnen with serious mental disorders, Pninciples of a reformed health can systeym with particular relevance for children's mental health services include coverage of a broad array of home and community-based services, provision of organized systems of care of children with serious and persistent mental illness, mechanisms to ensure appropriate utilization of services, and provision of mental health services on the same terms and conditions as other health services. The Clinton Administration's proposed Health Security Act embodied many of these principles. in addition, its call for universal coverage and for elimination of insurance exclusions for preexisting conditions would extend mental health coverage to children who are currently uninsured or underinsured; the plan would also expand the range of services covered to include state-of-the-art approaches such as intensive nonresidential services and other alternatives to hospitalization, implementation of the proposed plan would require developing the service and workforce capacity to provide a full continuum of services, ensuring availability of existing services, integrating existing and new systems of care, guarding against underserving children with serious mental illness, and planning for the role of Medicaid funding in the reformed health care system.

As the years rolled by, Markham spent more and more time at the club, playing or visiting several days a week. He'd cut grass, fix doors, fill the bird feeders, whatever he could do to help. A couple of years ago, Doug Coffin, who works on the grounds crew, blew out his Achilles. "He had a wife and kids and he was wondering whether he was going to get paid or not," Richmond says. "Wally took it upon himself to step right into Doug's shoes and he did his job for him so Doug could keep getting paid. That told me a lot about what kind of person Wally is."
Markham may be a softy at heart, but you wouldn't guess it. He curses like a trucker, growls like a chainsaw, and downs Bud Light as if it were Powerade. He has thick arms, silver hair, and a neatly cropped mustache. He jokingly refers to himself to as "Mr. Wonderful" and often employs folksy sayings to get a point across. Ask Markham a question that he deems to have an obvious answer and he might say, "Does a big brown bear bellow when you bat him in the balls?"
Above all, though, Markham's friends say, he is loyal and protective of the things he loves. Which is why La Porte's demise so troubled him.
"Wally cares deeply about this place," says Russ Bartz, a La Porte member who worked with Markham at Deere. "It really bothered him that a golf course that was so important to the community wasn't what it could be."
By November of 2011 money was so tight at the club that it was taking out loans just to pay its December bills. If the club was to survive, it didn't just need a new owner, it needed somebody with deep pockets and a genuine desire to see the place thrive. Somebody like Wally Markham.
Markham actually had visions of buying his beloved club long before he hit the jackpot. He had socked away a tidy savings in his 401(k) and toyed with the idea of making an offer. He knew he would be a caring proprietor. So did Markham's friends. The board, however, needed convincing. A couple of other potential investors had come forward and some board members feared that the bargain-bin asking price -- about $150,000 -- would motivate buyers to turn a quick buck rather than turn the club around. "They were afraid Wally was going to turn the land into high-dollar housing," says Tim Connor, who served on the board until 2010.
One proposed solution involved Markham paying off the club's debt while the board stayed put. Markham balked. If he was going to buy the place, he was going to run it. Markham had the resounding support of the membership, and in late November 2011, at the best-attended board meeting that anyone could remember, the board acquiesced. Markham was in.
It's a steamy Thursday morning in July, three months after the club's grand reopening. White-haired men sip coffee at crowded tables in the clubhouse, readying for a league match. The Golf Channel plays on a flat-screen television above a stone fireplace. Downstairs, where a new bathroom and offices are under construction, the buzzing of power tools fills the air. Markham peers up at a damp spot on the ceiling where a new furnace has just been installed. "Son of a bitch is already leaking," he says.
Markham notices every glitch on his new investment, but the enhancements he has helped finance are far more eyecatching: lusher fairways; new landscaping and stonework outside the clubhouse; a new fleet of carts; and, for the grounds crew, a new tractor and mowers. He gave Riley, his manager, who had been making $7 an hour, a raise. Two months later, he gave her another one. "She's a godsend," Markham says. "Some nights she'd go home at 2 o'clock in the morning and she'd be back here at 5 in the morning."
The most obvious sign of improvement sits out front: the new parking lot. What was once a dusty expanse is now glistening blacktop. That might not sound like a big deal but it was to the residents of La Porte. When word got out about the new lot, locals came out in droves for a drive-by viewing. "There was a parade of cars," Markham says. "I just kept thinking of Field of Dreams with all those cars coming in. It was just like that."
New business has poured in, too. The club has added 70 members since last year and revenue has tripled, thanks in part to a $400 junior membership that Markham introduced to attract young families. Markham also did away with social fees; anyone can now drop by for a drink, and plenty do. The once-sleepy après-golf crowd has turned lively. Dozens of revelers now pack the patio, eating, drinking and singing along to tunes from an old-time jukebox. (Neil Diamond's Sweet Caroline is a favorite.) Markham might buy a round or two, and members play chipping games and corn toss deep into the night. Markham's nickname for his new playground: "Augusta North."
"We all won," Riley says. "I think that's plain and simple: we all won the jackpot."
It's not all one big party, of course. Running a golf course is serious, stressful business. Markham frets over dollar spot on his greens and watercress on his fairways. He sweats the cost of irrigating his land in the hot, dry Iowa summers. He faces the endless question of what to renovate next. There's a reason Jack Fleck, the 1955 U.S. Open champion from nearby Bettendorf, was floored when he heard on a recent visit to Waterloo that Markham had purchased a golf course.
"He bought a what?" Fleck said, according to Markham. "He's crazier than s---."
"He can call me whatever he wants to," Markham says. "But all I can tell you is that the city of La Porte has a golf course. That means something. It means a lot."
Markham wasn't at Smitty's, his go-to watering hole, on a recent afternoon, but a few other patrons were. A woman sat at the bar feeding dollar bills into a gaming machine. Five older men filled stools around a table. Directly above their heads, pinned to the ceiling, was the jumbo check that the Iowa Lottery presented to Markham after his win, a supersize memento of his good fortune.
One of the men, 73-year-old Ed Schumann, rose and walked to the bar to fetch a vodka. Schumann played on Tour in the Sixties and served in the Army under his Tour-pro pal, Orville Moody, before taking the head pro job at Sunnyside Country Club in Waterloo. In 1973, Schumann built a practice range in town. He's seen interest in the game flourish and now, he said, wane. He said kids aren't as driven as they once were to learn the game. "We can't get them out of bed," he said.
Schumann's business felt the pinch, forcing him to sell his facility to a real-estate developer in 2012. The old pro knows better than most, then, what Markham's investment has meant not only to La Porte City Golf Club but also to the game in general in their corner of the heartland.
"What Wally did..." Schumann began, staring down into his glass. "What Wally did was a wonderful, wonderful thing."

12 thoughts on "Anal Lubricant With Lidocaine"
A question about vaginal pain serious answers only.?
SO I was told by a friend that there is some stuff you can use down there that is kind of a lube but it has a slightly numbing effect and since i have vaginal pain during and up to an hour after sex i would like to know if there is such a thing.
I have talked to a obgyn and there is no reason for my being sore during sex i am just small and sensitive and this is the opinion of more then 3 obgyn's. also if any one knows in particular what are the names of the lubes i know they are out there but i need a name
also the problem is not stds i have been checked every year for every one you can test for and i have been having sex for over 7 years now so its not a lack of having sex.
oh and its not from lack of forplay or form lack of lube I have tried all of these as suggested by a obgyn believe me i wouldn't be asking this question if i had not have tried everything i can.
There are various types of lubricant that have what's called Lidocaine in it. This is a chemical that is a topical numbing agent. It's like the stuff a dentist rubs on your gums to numb the skin before he gives you the numbing shot for your whole tooth. It's very mild but it does deaden the skin somewhat for a short amount of time. They put this stuff in lubes for anal sex (because it relaxes the sphincter) and in creams for bikini waxes to take the sting out of hair removal. I would make sure your vaginal pain isn't caused by anything serous (get evaluated by an OB/Gyn to be sure through a pelvic exam) and that it's not caused by lack of natural lubrication. Try making sure you have plenty of foreplay and that your nice and lubricated before any penetration starts. There are also tons of diseases and issues that cause pain with intercourse from Endometriosis- Interstitial cystitis- STD's please see a doc first to rule out any obvious problems. If that's all good and your fine in that arena perhaps the issue is that you just aren't used to sex or your partner is well endowed, in this case this lube might help. A good one that i have used is called "Anal-ease" it is made by http://www.adamandeve.com and isn't to expensive. The only downside to these lubes is if you get them on your clitoris it can numb it as well making it harder to orgasm.
I have a VERY painful hemroid.?
It looks like there are two round lumps under the skin. Also it looks like if it grows a little more it will cover the anus. Hurts VERY bad to sit and at some moments pain while walking. Plan on buying some prep h tomorrow but im wondering if this sounds like i need to see a doc. Just noticed this thing today
There are many specially designed commercial hemroid creams on the market, in the supermarket, that one can try. Anusol, Ziro and Preparation H are apparently good hemroid creams. Bepanthen is one hemroid home remedy I used, as it contained an antiseptic and was soothing.
Zinc Oxide based creams, when applied to the hemroids, can also help with the relief of pain and discomfort.
If the hemroids are really painful, a cream or lotion with tetracaine – an anesthetic – or stramonium may be one of the best over the counter home remedies for hemroids.
in fact, external hemroids have created a whole hemroids home remedy market place, for a multitude of creams and ointments, most of which you can find at your local pharmacy.
Many of them come with a local anesthetic, such as lidocaine or benzocaine, that can provide almost instant relief.
Another common ingredient is hydrocortisone, which is a steroidal anti-inflammatory medication and a powerful hemroids home remedy. This hemroids home remedy does have to be carefully used. While hydrocortisone can provide some immediate and powerful relief from the misery of an external hemroid, if used for a long period of time it will start making the skin and muscle of the anal area thinner, which will contribute to the recurrence of hemroids. Therefore, if you use hydrocortisone, use it briefly when it'll do the most good, and do not use it as an ongoing medication.
The most common and probably most effective ingredient is a lubricant and moisturizer. Cocoa butter, petroleum jelly, and glycerin compounds are the most popular, but there are many effective creams out there that can be used as a hemroids home remedy.
Creams with calamine, of poison ivy fame, may be some of the most effective as the moisturizer and lubricant is combined with a proven astringent to provide maximum effective relief.
HELP!!!!! My Anus Itches! I'm freaking out and can't sleep!!?
This is embarassing and gross… but seriously…my asshole itches so f*in bad right now. I don't know if its a hemeroid or worm or wtf. Alls I know is that the itching is unbearable. All the stores are closed so I can't go get cream or ointment or wipes or anything. I'm like digging my fingernails into my leg trying to not scratch it. I tried showering again and it did nothing. I'm really freaking out right now.
Does anyone know any descreet home remedies for temporary relief? Like something I could whip up in the kitchen.
Honestly I don't know wtf to do…I can't take this anymore. I'm about to jump out of a window it itches so bad.
Hope this helps……

3.. Suppositories are also apparently a good hemroid home remedy and get to work really fast
Proctosedyl is a good suppository for hemroids. A suppository is something you insert up the anus. If it contains a pain killer, it will apparently help deaden the pain much faster, as the pain killer is delivered right to the pain spots. If it contains an antibiotic or antiseptic, it will help kill any infection that may be there.
4.. Hemroids home remedies – the oral pain killers
Oral type pain killers, such as those containing paracetamol, can be taken for hemroid pain. Beaware that codeine can cause constipation and it is sensible to avoid codeine oral pain killers when hemroids are present. Also, aspirin type pain killers may worsen hemroid bleeding.
Ibuprofen at an over the counter dose helps immensely as a temporary hemroid treatment.
Acetaminophen is helpful for temporary pain relief, but ibuprofen works on both the pain and the inflammation causing said pain.
Over the counter pain tablets can be an effective temporary hemroids home remedy
5.. Sitz baths are one very popular hemroids home remedy
Sitz baths help to alleviate hemroid symptoms such as inflammation, itching and swelling. This is one of the most popular home remedies for hemroids.
For immediate relief from either internal or external hemroids, many people find warm, plain water baths to be helpful.
Epsom salts in a warm bath is a common variation of a Sitz bath, as is adding certain aromatherapy essential oils to it.
Draw 2 to 3 inches (5 to 8 cm) of water, that is as warm or hot as you can stand it, and sit in it for twenty minutes three times per day.
If you suffer from irritated external hemroids, you may find that adding a bit of oatmeal powder to the bath is soothing, but stay away from harsh cleansers or other additives.
You can also find small sitz baths that fit over the toilet at your local pharmacy, which may make sitz-bath relief more convenient on a daily basis.
Right after the bath, sitting on a towel-wrapped ice pack is often both beneficial and soothing. The alternating of heat and cold gets the blood in the area moving again, which is all to the good when it comes to hemroids.
6.. Appropriate physical care of hemroids is another good home remedy for pain relief and easing discomfort
Another good practice with hemroids, is, if needed, to use mild soap and water to cleanse the area after using the toilet paper, as poo can cause the hemroid area to become inflamed, sore and itchy. A soft cloth with soap and water is much easier on the hemroid than repeated wiping with toilet paper. Anusol Medicated Wipes may also be useful for hemroids.
7.. Appropriate toilet paper is a simple hemroid home remedy
Also, with external or protruding hemroids, a soft toilet paper can be worth it's weight in gold for preventing and reducing hemroid pain. Cheap, hard toilet paper is likely to upset hemroids pretty badly, particularly if you have to keep wiping the hemroids to get reasonably clean.
Fluids emitted by the intestinal tract in the normal daily course of doing it's job, which is to break down food, can often be irritating to tender hemroids, so clean gently and well with cool water and plain, hypoallergenic soap at least once per day.
Patting the area clean after bowel movements with pads soaked in witch hazel, cranesbill, aloe vera, or apple vinegar is good both for cleaning and to dry and soothe the area. An alternative to wiping with toilet paper.
8.. Reinsertion is a very effective home remedy for prolapsed hemroids
One can also try to gently push the hemroids back into the anus – if that is where they are coming from – but be careful not to damage them. Once the hemroids are pushed back in, the pain should subside very quickly.
What lubricant is best for anal sex?
I am 17 and me and my girlfriend have been talking about it. We want to know what lub will be the bbest for it.
There are lots of great, different lubes out there, and everybody has their own preferences. The most important things to note about anal lubes are:
* No numbing! Because of the discomfort or pain associated with anal when it's not performed properly, a lot of anal lubricants boast having some form of topical anesthetic in them (such as lidocaine). This is NOT good. Pain is not a normal part of anal sex- it is your body trying to warn you that you either are doing damage to it, or are about to do damage to it. (Not to mention the general idea that you're supposed to be doing anal because you want to feel it, right?). If you use numbing lube, you are less likely to realize when something's going wrong- if you're numb to a tear in the rectal lining, you are less likely to stop or slow down/ease up, and you put yourself at even more risk of that tear then getting infected, turning into an abscess or even a fistula, etc.. Check the ingredient list and avoid anything with benzocaine or lidocaine.
* Thicker is better. Thin lubes are nice for vaginal sex or for manual stimulation of the vulva or penis, but when it comes to anal, you want something that's going to stay in place- thicker-bodied lubes tend to do better.
* Make sure it's latex-compatible. Petroleum/oil-based lubricants will "eat through" condoms, rendering them completely ineffective. Make sure that the lube you're using is silicone or water-based.
Other than that, just go browse some lube sellers, read reviews, and then take a plunge and try a couple! Some places offer sample size packs of different ones so you can try a few and see which ones you like best.
Hope that helps!
What is the best lube for anal sex. what is the best anal relaxer?
Please, please, please do not use a desensitizing/numbing lubricant like that suggested by the first answerer. These lubes, which contain topical anesthetics like benzocaine or lidocaine, sound like a good idea because they skirt the discomfort that is traditionally associated with anal sex. But in reality, they are very dangerous.
Pain is your body telling you that something is wrong. It is incredibly important that you be able to feel pain when you're doing anal, because, being an area through which feces routinely passes, even the smallest tear in the thin, delicate lining of the rectum is then prone to infection, which can lead to abcesses, fistulas, and even require surgery if the problem is left untreated. When you are numb down there, you're more likely to go rougher and end up possibly damaging yourself, and even if you're gentle, you still may not be aware when something starts to happen. Your body tries to send you the signals that it's being damaged, but you're numb from the lube and keep on going happily, not realizing what's happening.
And then there's also the simple question of why the hell you'd want to numb yourself during anal sex, instead of being able to feel all the wonderful stimulation and sensations it can bring.
Now that we've gotten that out of the way, what do I suggest? My personal favorite for anal sex would be Maximus:
It's nice and thick, lasts a long time, doesn't get sticky/tacky, is safe for use with condoms, etc., etc..
But really, there are lots of good ones on the market. Just do some shopping around.
And enjoy your anal sex!
Recently, it hurts during and after sex.?
I've been having sex for almost 6 years. My current boyfriend and I have been together for almost a year and we have never had a problem.
Lately, during sex whenever he is on top or behind me (both positions we have enjoyed before), it feels like a sharp pain stabbing my stomach. It hurts so bad I cry and after sex it hurts to go to the bathroom, lay on my butt or even move sometimes. This is regular vaginal intercourse, not anal.
I'm not sure if I should go to the doctor or wait it out or what it could be.
Thanks, I'm making an appointment with my doctor, I guess I was just hoping it might be something less serious.
I don't know if it makes a difference, but it doesn't hurt when I'm on top? I guess because I can control the depth then?
http://hubpages.com/hub/When-Sex-Hurtsgo here
Painful Sex: Causes and Solutions 1-3
1. How it hurts: You feel a sharp, stabbing pain on one side of your pelvis during deep penetration. You may also feel a dull ache during your period.
The possible cause: An ovarian cyst — a fluid-filled growth that affects about 30 percent of premenopausal women.
What to do: Most cysts are harmless and disappear by themselves within two or three menstrual cycles, says Canavan. Your doctor will probably do an ultrasound to confirm the diagnosis and ask you to check back two months later if sex still hurts. In the meantime, take 400 mg of ibuprofen one hour before intercourse to relieve discomfort and try having sex with you on top, a position that allows you to control the depth of penetration.
2. How it hurts: Your genitals feel itchy, irritated and sensitive, especially to the touch. After intercourse, your vagina looks red and inflamed, and feels as if it's on fire.
The possible cause: A yeast infection, which triggers pain during sex in about a quarter of sufferers. Don't wait until you see the telltale cottage-cheese-like discharge before seeking help. "It's a myth that this discharge always accompanies a yeast infection," says Elizabeth G. Stewart, M.D., an ob/gyn and coauthor of The V Book. "Sometimes pain is your only clue." Other possible culprits: feminine hygiene sprays, scented pads, perfumed soap or bath oils — all of which can irritate your vagina.
What to do: See your ob/gyn, who will confirm whether you have a yeast infection, and if you do, will prescribe medication. As for skin irritation: No woman should use feminine hygiene sprays, because they often trigger rashes. If you have sensitive skin, buy unscented sanitary pads, use only mild, hypoallergenic soaps and launder your underwear with fragrance-free detergent. An over-the-counter cortisone cream or Vagisil can relieve tenderness and itching.
3. How it hurts: Your perineum — the area where you may have had a deep tear or an episiotomy when giving birth — feels taut, tender and painful during initial penetration.
The possible cause: Rigid, hard scar tissue due to that tear or episiotomy. Women who have either during childbirth are 80 percent more likely to report painful sex three months later than those who didn't experience tissue damage during delivery, reports a study from Harvard Medical School.
What to do: Massage the painful area once a day for a few minutes using a water-based lubricant. "This helps desensitize the nerve endings and makes the skin more pliable, easing penetration," says John F. Steege, M.D., an ob/gyn professor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. If the area is very sensitive, ask your doctor for a prescription cream with lidocaine, a numbing agent that will make intercourse less painful. Still no relief? Consider minor surgery to remove scar tissue.
4. How it hurts: During sex, it feels as if his penis is bumping into something. You may also have heavy periods, spotting, back pain and an increased need to urinate.
The possible cause: Uterine fibroids — areas of benign tissue that grow on the uterine wall. Women with fibroids are almost three times more likely to report painful sex than those without them, and up to 40 percent of women in their 30s and 40s are plagued by these growths. Researchers aren't sure what causes fibroids, but many believe estrogen stimulates their development.
What to do: Get an ultrasound to see if you have fibroids, which range in size from a pea to a grapefruit. Once their size and location is determined, your doctor will discuss treatment options with you. Hysterectomy is the most effective way to remove them, but there are less invasive options, such as having an IUD inserted to shrink growths or uterine fibroid embolization (a nonsurgical treatment that shrinks fibroids by blocking blood flow to them).
5. How it hurts: His penis doesn't easily glide inside you; the friction of thrusting is painful and leaves your vagina feeling tender and irritated.
The possible cause: Vaginal dryness, which plagues 25 percent of women at some point in their lives. Common culprits: antidepressants or the Pill (either can lower libido, making it tough for you to get aroused and lubricated), breast-feeding (when nursing, estrogen levels are low, leading to dryness) or menopause (your production of estrogen, and thus lubrication, may drop).
What to do: Use a water-based lubricant, such as K-Y, during sex.
6. How it hurts: Your genitals burn and sting, nearly all the time. Both foreplay and intercourse are painful; so is riding a bike, inserting a tampon and sitting for a long time.
The possible cause: Vulvodynia — a painful condition that can affect the entire vulvar region or, in some cases, is concentrated at the vaginal opening. The problem appears to occur when vulvar nerve endings become irritated. Although experts aren't sure why, vagi
