Award-winning erotica author Wright collects short fiction about couples keeping the romance alive in their marriages and intersperses them with tips and techniques based on her own experience. Jeremy Edwards's "Communication Exercises" details the benefits of a husband's telling his wife he finds another woman attractive, while Christine D'Abo's "Bound for the Bedroom" describes a foray into BDSM. In "Vintage Love," Donna George Storey writes of passion long into a marriage and being a sexual older woman: "They tell me I'm invisible, which means my own sexual desire must no longer exist. If only they knew." In "Upcycling," Kate Dominic imagines a marriage hit hard by an economic recession and pulling together for the sake of love and a Christmas party. Back in the real world, Wright advises readers not to compare their sex lives to those of others and maintain intimacy with simple acts like holding hands or massages. She addresses the least embarrassing ways to bring up new fantasies with a partner as well as how find time for sex in an increasingly busy world. Whether you're looking for ideas to spice up your marriage or you're simply a fan of well-written and imaginative erotica, this book turns up the heat. (Dec.)

"Top 10 most provocative books."
The Daily Loaf
"With its mix of memoir, advice and erotica, Bedded Bliss serves up ways to keep love, romance and sex alive in the long-term. Kristina Wright knows of what she writes. All couples will learn something from this honest, inspiring book."
Rachel Kramer Bussel, editor, Only You: Erotic Romance for Women
"There are plenty of books about how to create great relationships, but what happens when you've built one? There aren't many guides to help long-term couples create hot, passionate connection. In Bedded Bliss, Kristina Wright offers brief but powerful tips, followed by super sexy erotic stories that show you just how hot being in an LTR can be. Unlike a lot of erotic fiction, these tales don't hide from the questions and concerns that real people have. Instead, they show how couples can respond to whatever life brings them and still have a great time in bed. And the suggestions for overcoming your hurdles and connecting with your partner are just right!"
Charlie Glickman, PhD, author of The Ultimate Guide to Prostate Pleasure
"Bedded Bliss is an important and delightful book with many great insights into the nature of long-term love accompanied by stories that combine sexual heat and emotional intimacy in ways that are often interesting and surprising. The stories and anecdotes are sure to fuel your erotic imagination, even if you are in a newer relationship."
Mark A. MIchaels and Patricia Johnson, authors of Great Sex Made Simple

Read an Excerpt
This is a book filled with real life experiences, sensual fantasies, practical advice, realistic suggestions, a dash of humor, a lot of sexy erotica, a few poignant memoirs and a combined total of over 243 years of relationship experience. This is a book to remind you thatno matter where you are in your life or your relationshipyour passion, your imagination, your need is still there and very much alive. It's a book to inspire and encourageto give you some ideas if you feel as if your well of passion and imagination is running dry. We, these talented, inspiring writers and I, are here to remind you of what you already know (even if you sometimes forget): married sex is a grand, amazing adventure from the first heartfelt "I do" to the distant golden years, and everything in between.
I hand picked the authors for this projectall of them are professional writers, many of them are well-known in the erotica and erotic romance genres. These are authors who write about sex for a living, yes, but they are also real people with real lives who know what it's like to share a home, a life and a family with another person. From the editior's discussion of newlywed days to Robin Elizabeth Sampson's more than thirty years of marriage, they have experienced it all. Every joy, every frustration, every milestone, everything a couple can experience. One or more of the baker's dozen authors in this book has been where you are right now in your marriage.
The short stories and memoirs shared here vary in sensuality from sweetly seductive to wildly erotic. These storiespersonal, arousing, inspiringare an opportunity to share a variety of experiences from authors with as varied backgrounds as the readers who hold the book in their hands. Each story opens with an introduction by the author, a personal vignette from the pages of their own lusty lives to remind you that you are not alone, we are in this pursuit of lifetime passion together. Regardless of where you are currently in your relationship, each story has something to offer youcommiseration and inspiration told from personal experience or clever imagination by writers who understand and appreciate the work that goes into sustaining a lifelong commitment. I got to choose the stories you read here and I wanted very real, attainable scenarios for couples who have as complicated a life as my husband and I do. I wanted to be able to read this book myself and say, "Oh wow, I'm going to try that." (And I'll tell you a secret: that's exactly what happened.) I wanted a book for people like mewith a full life and a busy schedule and a to do list longer than my armwho already know that married sex is the best sex.
I invite you to share the book with your partner, read the stories together (or out loud to each other) and create some new memories of your own. No matter where you are in your own relationshipif you're years from having kids (or chose to skip that stage entirely) or the newlywed days seem long agothe stories will offer you a glimpse into the possibilities of your passionate future and remind you of your lusty pastnot to mention give you some very sexy scenarios to consider. We've been there, we are there, we are living and loving and lusting and fucking with the person who set us on fire and still stokes our flames. Live that life of bedded bliss you daydreamed about on lazy Sundays on that hand-me-down couch and in late night whispers before you fell asleep. Never, ever let it go.

A wonderful book that really goes in depth when it comes to a couple's sex life throughout the years.
Fun, sexy, playful, but also very informative - my spark wasn't completely snuffed but that doesn't mean that this book didn't help me add a little something extra anyway. Would highly recommend to almost every couple.
Kristina Wright's wonderful book Bedded Bliss touches bases from honeymoon to retirement and all of the sex with your partner in between. She helps couples rekindle not only the flame of lust but also the enticement of intimacy. She helps you to navigate your wedded relationship from sex during and after pregnancy, to rebuilding and maintaining a bedroom life with kids in the house, to opening your eyes to the possibility of your best sex life ever in the years of an empty nest, post-job. To give you a head start with the bedroom education, she alternates between steamy erotica and advice. I love this book and what it has done for my relationship with my husband. I would recommend this book to couples in any phase of marriage who are looking to reconnect.
I have been in a faithful, loving, and monogamous relationship for nearly eight years and books like this are wonderful for couples who are committed to one another. Kristina Wright's Bedded Bliss journeys not only into the reader's bedroom but also the heart and mind. With chapters such as "The Beginning of Lust--How it Starts, Why it Lasts," "Growing Your Lust Together--Nice to Meet You...Again," "Lust for Better or Worse--When the Going Gets Tough." and "Different Flavors of Lust--Exploring Your Boundaries," I found myself hungrily reading through each chapter. Wright presents useful reminders, tips, tricks, and advice for couples. This book is meant to enhance and rekindle what is already there, giving you new ideas and testing your connection with your partner as you explore one another's body and mind. If you've been with your significant other for as long as I have (or longer!), you think you know everything about them. WRONG. This book helps break your routine and revitalize the love and intimacy in your relationship. And another plus is that I can read this with my fiance and he is just as interested as I am. Wright writes (hehehe) in a way that is interesting and appealing to both partners... I highly recommend!
I wasn't sure what to make of this book the first time I saw it, but what the hell... I'll read pretty much anything. I have to admit though, I'm very picky when it comes to erotica. There needs to be a strong story, some amazing character development, or a good reason for all the sex- I'm not one to just read scene after scene of sex acts just because. Well in Bedded Bliss, there's a great reason for all the steam, and I am proud to say that I loved this book! Bedded Bliss: A Couple's Guide to Lust Ever After is part self-help and part erotica. It offers tips, techniques, and a collection of short stories written by seasoned authors of erotica, purposely combined as a reminder that it is possible to have a satisfying sex life at every stage of one's marriage by integrating imagination, determination, and a good sense of humor. Desiring one another after most couples have started rolling their eyes at the prospect is not luck, it's work, and this book tastefully and encouragingly incorporates some helpful suggestions. In the "self-help" aspect of this book, the author/editor Kristina Wright offers her personal experiences as well as her own imagination to provide readers with ideas on how to maintain quantity, quality, and spice in a couple's sexual relationship. And the "erotica" element in this book is well done by empathizing with a variety of common struggles, whether it's the stress of being laid off from a job, the hesitation that comes along with poor body image, or the anxiety that might come before verbalizing fantasies to one's partner for the first time. Throughout all the erotic fiction, the characters and scenarios remain realistic and reinforce a relationship's foundation through intimacy. The stories may be explicit, but the emotional piece is not missed. I'm glad I read this book and would recommend it to others who want the most out of their sexual relationships, whether they feel they need the help or not. A change in perspective can make all the difference and the opportunity to learn from others always holds value. Now if you'll excuse me, I've got an idea or two to try... My favorite quote: "The only two people you have to please are your partner and yourself. So forget everyone else. Forget what your best friend told you. Forget about the studies and whether they appeared in Cosmopolitan or the New York Times or some archaic journal with a longer subtitle than the Cosmo article, and focus on sharing yourself. All of yourself with your partner."
Bedded Bliss is a wonderful collection of advice and erotica, which focuses on the lives of married couples--both monogamous and polyamorous. The book is an entertaining read, full of humor and realistic experiences that married couples endure while juggling their sex lives, children, and jobs. I particularly enjoyed the chapter "Just the Two of Us" by Christopher Cole, detailing the chaos of getting three young children to the table to eat AND finding the time to be with a busy wife (thanks for the laugh!). Whether you are married or in a long-term relationship--or even just beginning to date--this book certainly has applications for a lot of people. I would definitely recommend.
This book is full of practical, sound tips to help any sexual relationship. Most of us (I think) are monogamous, in that we marry and really only want to be with that person. And things can get kind of boring, if I may say so. I'd recommend this book to anyone whose relationship is feeling stale or needs a little kick in the bedroom (though I urge you not to kick your partner). The connection is there, you just need a little something. Your love life is like an ice cream cone; plain vanilla is good, but wouldn't it be better with toppings? This book taught me that.
Living and loving - together forever! I loved the happily ever after idea of this book and got it for this reason. It is actually quite deep and really explains the cycle of a relationship and how you can live and love. For a long time. I give the a 6 stars out of 5- top notch!

Lecture 2 Complex Power, Reactive Compensation, Three Phase Dr. Youssef A. Mobarak Department of Electrical Engineering EE 351 POWER SYSTEM ANALYSIS
1 Announcements For lectures 2 through 3 please be reading Chapters 1 and 2
2 Review of Phasors Goal of phasor analysis is to simplify the analysis of constant frequency ac systems v(t) = V max cos( t + v ) i(t) = I max cos( t + I ) Root Mean Square (RMS) voltage of sinusoid
3 Phasor Representation
4 Phasor Representation, cont'd (Note: Some texts use "boldface" type for complex numbers, or "bars on the top")
5 Advantages of Phasor Analysis (Note: Z is a complex number but not a phasor)
6 RL Circuit Example
7 Complex Power
8 Complex Power, cont'd
9 Complex Power (Note: S is a complex number but not a phasor)
10 Complex Power, cont'd
11 Conservation of Power At every node (bus) in the system – Sum of real power into node must equal zero – Sum of reactive power into node must equal zero This is a direct consequence of Kirchhoff's current law, which states that the total current into each node must equal zero. – Conservation of power follows since S = VI*
12 Conversation of Power Example Earlier we found I = 20 -6.9 amps
13 Power Consumption in Devices
14 Example First solve basic circuit
15 Example, cont'd Now add additional reactive power load and resolve
16 Power System Notation Power system components are usually shown as "one-line diagrams." Previous circuit redrawn C:\Program Files (x86)\PowerWorld\SimulatorGSO17\5th Ed. Book Cases\Chapter2\Problem2_32.pwb Arrows are used to show loads Generators are shown as circles Transmission lines are shown as a single line
17 Reactive Compensation Key idea of reactive compensation is to supply reactive power locally. In the previous example this can be done by adding a 16 Mvar capacitor at the load Compensated circuit is identical to first example with just real power load
18 Reactive Compensation, cont'd Reactive compensation decreased the line flow from 564 Amps to 400 Amps. This has advantages – Lines losses, which are equal to I 2 R decrease – Lower current allows utility to use small wires, or alternatively, supply more load over the same wires – Voltage drop on the line is less Reactive compensation is used extensively by utilities Capacitors can be used to "correct" a load's power factor to an arbitrary value.
19 Power Factor Correction Example
20 Distribution System Capacitors
21 Balanced 3 Phase ( ) Systems A balanced 3 phase ( ) system has – three voltage sources with equal magnitude, but with an angle shift of 120 – equal loads on each phase – equal impedance on the lines connecting the generators to the loads Bulk power systems are almost exclusively 3 Single phase is used primarily only in low voltage, low power settings, such as residential and some commercial
22 Balanced 3 -- No Neutral Current
23 Advantages of 3 Power Can transmit more power for same amount of wire (twice as much as single phase) Torque produced by 3 machines is constrant Three phase machines use less material for same power rating Three phase machines start more easily than single phase machines
24 Three Phase - Wye Connection There are two ways to connect 3 systems – Wye (Y) – Delta ( )
25 Wye Connection Line Voltages V an V cn V bn V ab V ca V bc -V bn Line to line voltages are also balanced (α = 0 in this case)
26 Wye Connection, cont'd Define voltage/current across/through device to be phase voltage/current Define voltage/current across/through lines to be line voltage/current
27 Delta Connection I ca IcIc I ab I bc IaIa IbIb
28 Three Phase Example Assume a -connected load is supplied from a 3 13.8 kV (L-L) source with Z = 100 20
29 Three Phase Example, cont'd
30 Delta-Wye Transformation
31 Delta-Wye Transformation Proof
32 Delta-Wye Transformation, cont'd

- Reviewer: Staff
The first volume of Dalglish's Shadowdance trilogy, a "frenetic masterpiece" with "growing pains" (to quote the author's modest afterword) that achieved self-published success, has been substantially revised for this edition, but its core remains a winning combination of A Game of Thrones, sword-and-sorcery RPGs, and vivid description. Aaron, the son of master thief Thren Felhorn, is an unprepossessing introvert who catches his father's attention by stabbing an intruder—at age eight. Five years later, Aaron is learning the thieving trade in Veldaren, a city defined by internal war between the thieves' guilds and the merchants' guilds, with the weak, paranoid king a pawn on the board. The point of view shifts continually, encompassing bit players and major characters from every angle of the struggle, and Dalglish handles his cast of thousands with aplomb. Despite the inevitable quasi-medieval setting, saucy dagger-wielding maidens, and very convenient magic, this is a fun read. Dalglish puts familiar pieces together with a freshness and pleasure that are contagious. Agent: Michael Carr, Veritas Literary Agency. (Oct.)

After Christianity by Gianni Vattimo
Book DescriptionWhat has been the fate of Christianity since Nietzsche's famous announcement of the "death of God"? What is the possibility of religion, specifically Christianity, thriving in our postmodern era? In this provocative new book, Gianni Vattimo, leading Italian philosopher, politician, and framer of the European constitution, addresses these critical questions. When Vattimo was asked by a former teacher if he still believed in God, his reply was, "Well, I believe that I believe." This paradoxical declaration of faith serves as the foundation for a brilliant exposition on Christianity in the new millennium-an age characterized by a deep uncertainty of opinion-and a personal account of how Vattimo himself recovered his faith through Nietzsche and Heidegger. He first argues that secularization is in fact the fulfillment of the central Christian message, and prepares us for a new mode of Christianity. He then explains that Nietzsche's thesis concerns only the "moral god" and leaves room for the emergence of "new gods." Third, Vattimo claims that the postmodern condition of fragmentation, anti-Eurocentrism, and postcolonialism can be usefully understood in light of Joachim of Fiore's thesis concerning the "Spiritual Age" of history. Finally, Vattimo argues for the idea of "weak thought." Because philosophy in the postmetaphysical age can only acknowledge that "all is interpretation," that the "real" is always relative and not the hard and fast "truth" we once thought it to be, contemporary thought must recognize itself and its claims as "weak" as opposed to "strong" foundationalist claims of the metaphysical past. Vattimo concludes that these factors make it possible for religion and God to become a serious topic for philosophy again, and that philosophy should now formally engage religion.

Theaster Gates
ART21: Art in the Twenty-First Century
Auditorium, Bermondsey
Art in the Twenty-First Century, Season 8
Running time: 56 minutes
Cinematography: Damon Hennessey
© ART21, Inc. 2016
Season 8 of Art in the Twenty-First Century presents sixteen artists in four cities. In episode 4, it focuses on Chicago and features Nick Cave, Chris Ware, Barbara Kasten and Theaster Gates who discuss their practice and their relationship to the "city of architecture". Nick Cave sees art as form of diplomacy, as a way to change the way we engage with each other. He creates sculptures from vintage or discarded materials and performances which can include as many as 500 participants to create what he calls a "place of dreaming". Chris Ware is a cartoonist who sees the process of drawing comics as way of defining himself. Discussing his practice and working methods, Ware talks about the American honesty of Chicago and how the culture of serialised comics is deeply embedded within its history. Barbara Kasten creates work through experimentation with different sculptural materials and photographic techniques. Her photographs and video use light and constructed elements to question not just art but the entire world around us. Theaster Gates' extraordinary practice uses art to reinvigorate communities and change the social conditions of contemporary life. Gates discusses his childhood on the West side of Chicago and how the systematic destruction of this urban area, the haven of the Black Church and his training in clay have all influenced his diverse art. Gates' works include sculpture and installation using recycled objects and materials as well as the restoration and construction of entire buildings to create centres for social and cultural interaction.
Reservation is not necessary, but places are limited. Please arrive early to avoid disappointment.

3 Days in Mumbai
Mumbai Off the Beaten Path
One Day in Mumbai
the food is fantastic out hear , especially the pepperoni . great cheese platters , awesome salads and pastas .
very good staff , great service ,
i haven't eaten at many Italian restaurants in India, so can't judge that universe. The restaurants in Bologna or Roma have nothing to fear, but they come close with genuine ingredients that are very well prepared.
Service attentive to go with the excellence of The Oberoi - choice limited, breads fantastic, but on the whole overpriced.
Fantastic Italian restaurant. Pasta was home made, fresh and fantastic. Service great. i liked it. Not too crowded.
A group of us made reservations for Vetro and were very disappointed. It was not crowded (there was one other family in the restaurant). It took 50 minutes from the time I was asked if I wanted a drink to actually getting it. This was after being asked 5 times if I wanted anything and I had to keep repeating...
food quality is good , range is not. Good for business traveler where you can get a limited range but high quality ,
Off the lobby the Vetro loses any intimacy it may have from its low ceiling and nice decorations because it is open on one side, creating a transitory feeling. the restaurant works OK for breakfast when there is a pretty good buffet supplemented by a la carte as you wish, but it loses its way the rest of the time...
Celebrated our 2nd anniversary over dinner at Vetro. It was the best place we could have chosen, considering we had gotten married at the Oberoi. The ambience was perfect with the mood lightings, which made us relax easily after traveling in the Mumbai traffic.
Once seated we were providing with fresh bread, some cheese, olives and pickled cucumber and some...
The handsome Italian chef prepares a heavenly pasta with bacon and truffle for my guest. We relish the out of the world potato olive oil soup though a bit heavy. The bread dip is addictive. I have grilled portobello mushrooms in light cheese sauce with some sautéed potatoes on side. Too full for dessert though in the past they were...
Vetro restaurant food is excellent and the service matches it - the staff are especially friendly and helpful.

Fortunately for Modern Family fans, the Pritchett-Dunphy clan made it out of LAX all the way to "Hawaii," this week's new episode. And although the family may have been on vacation, it's clear the writers were hard at work--creating one of the season's best half-hours.
As the group readies for Jay's birthday celebration, we learn several crucial pieces of information. Jay's father died at the same age his son is about to reach. Cameron doesn't really like to go on "adventures" when on vacation--he'd rather relax by the pool, much to uptight Mitchell's dismay. And most important, we learn that years ago, Claire and Phil were supposed to go to Hawaii on their honeymoon.
Unfortunately, Claire's unexpected pregnancy with Haley derailed both a formal wedding and the trip. Phil spends the entire show trying to have that honeymoon he and his wife never had, which means that Claire must give her kids some freedom from her constant surveillance. Which leads us to ...

Good memory! That sounds right. R5 was doing a lot of ska shows back then, heh. And now that I think about it, they weren't doing shows by Penn until the late 90s, with the Stalag guys. I didn't get to too many Stalag or Killtime shows, couldn't drive until 97 I know it's been discussed to death on Superfuture, but it's funny how many old hc/punk kids are on these boards.

Don't Get Fooled Again: Another Mayor Pothole From the Observer? Let's Do This, People.
Jeff Siegel at the Advocate has nominated me for mayor, and, after long consideration and discussion with my family, I have accepted. I shall run, unlike our current mayor. If elected, I shall serve. If offered a salary, I shall accept.
I have decided to keep my platform simple. My slogan will be, "Just Fix My Damn Street, Will You?"
In this case, the term, "my street" is not generic or anything. I don't mean they should fix everybody's streets. I want them to fix my damn street.
I want to see if maybe that's how you can get your damn street fixed around here -- by getting elected mayor. Because nothing else works.
It's always something with City Hall. "Oh, no, Mr. Schutze, we'd like to fix your street, but we've decided to build a conventioneer hotel with the money, instead."

My first day in office, I'm going to call the city manager and say, "Hi, this is the mayor. Fix my damn street."
You say that my platform is selfish. I say nay. I do this for thou.
Years ago, a lady who was a prisoner in a federal penitentiary for women told me a pitiful story about a civics class for inmates. The rule was that the inmates could not be admitted into the civics class until they lined up properly first in the courtyard.
But they never lined up properly in the courtyard, because they were always pulling one another's hair and calling each other bitches. So they never got into the civics class. The lady telling me the story said, "Why do they have a civics class? Why don't they have a lining up class?"
She said if most of the inmates ever once learned how to stand in line, they'd be three-quarters of the way toward rehabilitation.
So that's how I feel about City Hall. If I could force them to just fix my own damned street, just once, they'd be three-quarters of the way toward becoming useful, as opposed to what they are now, which I am beginning to think is crazy.
It could happen for me. Look at Laura Miller. She was a columnist for the Observer. She got elected mayor. And now she's way younger than me and good-looking.

went there last year going again this year. Dr. is fast and gets down to the point. And they honor coupons which is great when your on a fix income.
Doctor was only willing to give a 3 month recommendation even though I called ahead of time to make sure I was bringing sufficient documentation for a 12 month. The doctor was 45 minutes late to the office, then there was an additional 45 minute wait until he would see me. The appointment lasted less than 10 minutes and he rushed me out of his office without answering any of my questions. They charged me the full $99 fee for a new patient despite the fact that I only needed a renewal. Overall extremely frustrated and disappointed with the service. Under no circumstances would I recommend this doctor to any other medical marijuana patients.

Caddon Water
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Caddon Water (Scottish Gaelic: Cadan) is a small river by the village of Caddonfoot, in the Scottish Borders area of Scotland. It rises on Windlestraw Law, four miles north of Innerleithen, and flows through the Stantling Craig Reservoir. It joins the river Tweed at Caddonfoot, having completed its journey after 11 miles (18 km).

Update: Betfair Gets Rogued due to Botched Promo
- 0
- December 9th, 2010
- By Natalie Stephanopoulos
Ever since a well-standing online casino Betfair ran what seems to be a botched promo which drove a great number of players to take the bait, it's been a hot topic industry-wide. And instead of taking the blame and correcting its error, the casino made the situation a whole lot worse, taking a number of actions, such as retroactive changes to the T&Cs, closing and auditing player accounts and then arbitrarily confiscating winnings.
This clumsy handling of the already serious situation, as well as the casino management's refusal to further discuss the disqualifications with affected players, ended up in an outrage and severe criticism throughout the industry, especially among players who observed this move as the unfair removal of legitimate winnings.
In addition, Betfair suggested that players should contact the LGA in Malta, which has not been well received either, considering that the jurisdiction has a reputation of low player sensitivity.
One of the most extreme player complaints came from a Portuguese national who claimed that he had not only lost Euro 32 000, but that Betfair had somehow managed to extract that amount from his personal bank account without his permission. The player reported this and complained to banking and other regulatory authorities, adding that he requires satisfaction and an explanation as to how such a withdrawal could possibly have been sanctioned by his bank.
In terms of publicity, Betfair has gone silent, allowing the serious witch hunt against them to take shape as certain reknown online gambling info sites threw it into their rogue sections.

Boreal mires store in total c. 300–455 Gt carbon, equivalent to 20–30% of the global soil carbon (Gorham, 1991). Most of this carbon is stored in Sphagnum peat, and it has been suggested that more carbon may be stored in Sphagnum than in any other plant genus (Clymo & Hayward, 1982). Mires have been subject to natural environmental changes throughout the Holocene. However, since industrialization, human activities have increased the rate of change. Particularly pronounced changes include the large increases seen in the deposition rates of nitrogen (N) and sulphur (S) and the increased temperatures in boreal regions. These changes may have had major effects on the vegetation and on the biogeochemical cycles in boreal mire ecosystems.
In Sphagnum-dominated peatlands Sphagnum growth and production are key variables in the interactions between vascular plants and mosses and for the function of the ecosystem as carbon sequesters (Malmer et al., 1994; Svensson, 1995; van Breemen, 1995; Berendse et al., 2001; Ohlson et al., 2001). Sphagnum has the ability to engineer its environment, making it acid and nutrient poor, while promoting a high water table with accompanying anoxic conditions (van Breemen, 1995). Very few vascular plants can compete in the resulting environment. Growth of Sphagnum on bogs and poor fens is usually not greater than 1–5 cm yr−1 (Rochefort et al., 1990; Gunnarsson & Rydin, 2000), but this is enough to outgrow most vascular plant seedlings under these conditions (van Breemen, 1995; Gunnarsson & Rydin, 1998; Ohlson, 1999; Ohlson et al., 2001). However, environmental changes may affect Sphagnum growth rates, and reductions in its growth may release the vascular plants from stress by reducing the rate at which they need to grow to match its vertical growth. This may, in turn, increase the likelihood that the mire communities will become more dominated by vascular plants (Berendse et al., 2001; Heijmans et al., 2001; Limpens et al., 2003; Malmer et al., 2003; Tomassen et al., 2003). As the competition for light is asymmetric, favouring large plants, in this case vascular plants, the growth of Sphagnum would subsequently be further reduced by shading from the vascular plants and the accumulated litter (Hayward & Clymo, 1983; Chapman & Rose, 1991; Limpens et al., 2003). Thus, reductions in the production of Sphagnum may profoundly affect the role of boreal mires as carbon-sequestering ecosystems (Gorham, 1991; Thormann et al., 1999).
Northern mires usually have a clear microtopographic pattern with distinct hummocks and hollows. Sphagnum species growing in these ecosystems show clear distinctions in their distribution in relation to variables such as height above the water table and pH (Økland, 1989; Rydin, 1993). Several authors have speculated that the main effects of global warming on mires would be changes associated with a lowering of the water table (Manabe & Wetherald, 1986; Moore et al., 1998). However, it has also been suggested that a warmer climate would increase precipitation in some northern regions (Maxwell, 1992; Mattsson & Rummukainen, 1998), which makes it difficult to predict the outcome of global warming on the water table. Such changes will probably result in larger variations in the ground water table and might change the intricate species composition along the hollow-to-hummock gradient. Raising the air temperature may, by itself, lead to increased evapotranspiration, but the air humidity does not necessary have to be increased (cf. Granberg et al., 2001). In areas with low summer temperature increased temperatures may be important to raise the relative growth rate of bryophytes as long as the elevated evapotranspiration does not lead to desiccation. Sphagnum species growing in hollows often tend to dry out more than hummock-forming species during dry periods, even though they are growing closer to the water table (Rydin, 1993). This drought-pattern is mainly attributable to differences in capillary transport systems, which are more highly developed in hummock-forming Sphagnum species than in hollow species (Hayward & Clymo, 1982; Rydin, 1985). Thus, if a warmer climate lowers the ground water table, increases the desiccation rate or gives longer dry periods, hummock-forming Sphagnum species may benefit at the expense of hollow-dwelling species.
At N-limited sites an elevated N supply will result in increased growth, up to a certain capitulum concentration (Vitt et al., 2003). Above this point the Sphagnum growth will be limited by other factors, such as phosphorus (Aerts et al., 1992), and the high N concentration may result in a nutrient imbalance or even be toxic. In recent N fertilization experiments Sphagnum growth decreased when the capitulum N concentrations became too high, owing to moderate influxes (c. 1 g m−2 yr−1) over long periods (Rochefort et al., 1990; Gunnarsson & Rydin, 2000) or high influxes (> 15 g m−2 yr−1) over a shorter period (van der Heijden et al., 2000b). Sphagnum species have no known mechanism for regulating their uptake of N (Jauhiainen et al., 1998b), but can transport N internally from older to younger tissue (Aldous, 2002).
Field studies in the southern Pennines, UK, have shown that high influxes of S (as SO2, HSO32– and SO42–) can dramatically reduce the occurrence and growth of Sphagnum (Tallis, 1964; Ferguson et al., 1978). Inter- and intra-specific differences in the growth responses of Sphagnum species to HSO32– and SO42– additions have also been observed (Ferguson & Lee, 1980; Austin & Wieder, 1987; Lee et al., 1990). There are some reasons to believe that the interactions between the N, S and temperature treatments are different from pure additive effects. For example, the uptake of S might be reduced by high levels of N and intercellular concentrations of the physiologically active substances may very well interfere with each other. Thus, the combination of high N and high S might be positive for growth in some situations. Increased levels of N influx might be extra harmful for Sphagnum when the air temperature is increased and the mosses are dry.
Sphagnum species have been shown to coexist in 1 dm2 plots for many hundreds or even thousands of years (Rydin & Barber, 2001). Such species coexistence in a community can be explained either by species occupying different niches or being competitive equivalents (Bengtsson et al., 1994). If species coexistence is explained by niche differentiation, the environment has to be spatially or temporally heterogeneous. By contrast, if coexisting species are similar enough in their competitive abilities, no competitive exclusion will occur, even in the absence of niche differentiation (Hubbel & Foster, 1986). If the environment change and species is niche differentiated the competitive relations will change and the prerequisites for species coexistence will be altered. Several studies have found reduced species coexistence (diversity) following increased N influx (Lütke Twenhöven, 1992; Willems & van Nieuwstadt, 1996; Berendse, 1999). In Sphagnum monolayers individual shoots compete for space. Thus, individuals that are well adapted to the new environmental conditions following changes will successively occupy larger surface areas and eventually monopolize the area.
To our knowledge this one of the first large-scale field experiments on boreal mire ecosystems where the effects of a raised temperature and increased influxes of N and S on Sphagnum communities have been studied in a full factorial design. In this study we test the following hypotheses: (1) for the lawn species Sphagnum balticum, length growth and production will be reduced at increased temperature, increased influxes of N and S and there are interactions between these factors; (2) as the environmental conditions change (i.e. as temperature or N and/or S influxes increase) the competitive relations between naturally coexisting species will change; (3) a transplanted hummock species will increase in the temperature treatments at the expense of the naturally occurring hollow species.

Rounding numbers - is a mathematical operation that allows you to reduce the number of digits in the number, replacing it with an approximate value. Rounding numbers are used for convenience in the calculations.
After all, I do not want to confuse and bother with numbers that are digits after the decimal point five, or even more. There are a few rules of rounding:
If the first digit you want to discard,greater than or equal to 5, the latter figure, which remains - is incremented by one. Example: take the number 25.274 and round it to the nearest tenth. The first cast by digit - 7, more than 5, so it is stored figure - 2 increments. That is, it turns round number - 25.3.
If the first digit you want todrop, less than 5, then the increase in last stored numbers are not happening. Example: 38.436 rounded to the nearest tenth. The first number that we want to discard - 3, is less than 5, so it is stored number - 4 is not increased. It remains to round number - 38.4.
If the figure we want to be dropped is 5, butfor it has no significant digits, the last digit is stored by the same, if it is even, and if odd, then incremented. Example 1: 42.85 is the number, round it to the nearest tenth. Discard figure 5, and, as for there is no significant digits, and the last stored by the figure 8 - even, it remains unchanged. That is, we get the number of 42.8.
Example 2: 42.35 number rounded to the nearest tenth. Drop figure 5, it is not at a significant digits, but the latter retains the number 3 - odd, she, respectively, increased by one and becomes even. Get 42.4.

Art Tonight: The Kettle's Whistling For Tim Kerr's Solo Show
When I found out that Tim Kerr had scheduled a solo show at Kettle Art, I got a little (read: quite) excited. In the past, the former member of the Big Boys has shown at Austin's Domy Books and Longbranch Saloon, and more recently at Webb Gallery in Waxahachie, but this is Kerr's first exposure in Dallas, proper.
There are a lot of words people use to describe Kerr's stuff: outsider, folk, etc., but he'd be happier if you didn't use any. Not one for labels, Kerr believes that art, music and whatever else you squeeze from your creative pulp should represent pure self-expression, and he's never cared much for the confines of any specific genre.
"Sometimes when people want to talk to me about music they ask me about being in a punk band," he said from his Austin digs, "but I tell them that we weren't punk, we were DIY." While initially that might sound like trading one label for another, Kerr's reasoning goes deeper. In the late '70s and early '80, his bands became what would later be highly influential acts for would-be punk musicians, but back then they weren't aiming in any particular direction. Kerr and his friends made the music they did because they had to. They were compelled to. When they squelched on their instruments together, that is the stuff that came out. He uses the same approach to art.
Here's a video of Tim Kerr painting a Willie Wells Mural in Austin.

Kerr's art keeps stories alive. Each piece features a historical figure drawn in a primitive fashion, then flushed out with bright colors. The result is the visual equivalent to a jazz session: free-form and spontaneous but with a defined narrative current. They're all created on found objects: cardboard, school maps, chalkboards -- anything he scavenges that looks fun is fair game. To Kerr, this just makes sense. Let other bands play on a stage; he'd rather play on the floor. And let other artists paint on traditional surfaces, "I don't want to paint on canvas," said Kerr, "I want people to look closer and think 'Is that cardboard, or -- what is that?' "
The next thing you notice about Tim Kerr's art is that his muses are inspirational individuals. Musicians like John Coltrane or civil rights figures like Rosa Parks are his primary drive -- and that's by design. Kerr believes in the transference of energy, and that our smallest actions impact those around us. "Let's say you go out to lunch today and somebody sees the pair of shoes you had on, then they went out and bought those shoes: You just influenced them," said Kerr. "It's amazing the influence you can have. I want to be responsible for my actions and be some sort of responsible influence, if I can be." And so he promotes the education of those folks who made a positive change on this lump of planet by incorporating their legacy in everything he creates.
Nearly ambidextrous in his thoughts about music and art, Kerr has figured out a few areas where the two diverge. My favorite is his thought about being a "touring artist." It goes like this: art follows suit with music. Everyone starts creating visual products and influencing one another. Soon there is "art everywhere." Finally, artists go on tour the same way bands do. "Just imagine, we could literally book a tour from here to Portland and just show art," thought Kerr in a creative fervor, "It would be amazing!"
Until that day arrives, we'll take joy from shows like this one, which begins at 7 p.m. and runs until 10 tonight, Friday, April 27. Kerr hinted at a possible musical element for the evening, so prepare to bathe in self-expression. Kettle Art is located at 2714 Elm Street in Deep Ellum.

The best beauty looks from Cosmo's Ultimate Women of the Year Awards
How does it smell?
This stunning candle is a good choice for those who like a less in-your-face festive scent. No smoky or spicy elements here, just uplifting orange and
bergamot blended with plum, vanilla and amber. Unfortunately, once lit, I could only really make out the vanilla. It did give my front room a lovely warm
vibe but I think it looked a little better than it actually delivered.
How does it burn?
Like a £75 candle should! Brilliantly – clean, no smoke, no mad wax spills, and keeps it shape and design beautifully.
Who would you buy this for?
There's no denying this is a knock-out statement candle. The design is gorgeous and would make a fab present for Mum or anyone who appreciates the finer
things in life.
How does it smell? Like a spa. A Cowshed spa, specifically. It's a subtle all-natural mood boosting blend with rose geranium, linden blossom and frankincense.
How does it burn? Slowly and evenly thanks to its 100% organic wax with an Egyptian cotton wick. Totes posh.
Who would you buy this for? Busy mums and stressed sisters or friends. This is balancing by name, balancing by nature and will lend their home a touch of spa 'n' aah.
