Overcoming the physical causes of male erection problems could be effectively addressed by the use of penis pumps. The important parameters to be considered are their design, parts, working method, effectiveness and safety measures. By applying the suggested techniques of usage, optimum levels of erection could be attained and sustained. Long term usage might also help in increasing the girth and length of the penis without negative side effects.
Scope of Review
The scope of this review includes two products which are said to be prevalent among the hydro pumps devices. They are the Penomet and Bathmate brands.
Generic Overview of Penis Pump
Penis pump is a device used for enhancing the girth and length of erection by creating vacuum pressure. This pressure is supposed to act along the length of corpora cavernosa.
- The suggested range of pressure is supposed to be good enough to excite the tissues and nerves of the two channels of Corpora cavernosa. This could be effective from the pelvis region till the tip of the penis.
- Consistent excitation at optimum intensity could stretch the tissues of the cavernosa beyond their normal size. Then the penis is said to pass from the flaccid phase into the tumescent (semi-erect) and into the erect phase. During these phases the flexibility and the tensile strength of the corpora cavernosa is supposed to increase. A good penis pump is supposed to decrease the time interval for the transformation of the placid state of the penis into the hard erect phase.
- At this stage the cavernosa is said to absorb blood into the veins and trap it within the region. As long as the blood levels are high, the hardness of erection is supposed to be retained. The duration for which this hardness phase can prolong during intercourse is said to be the "effectiveness factor" of the penis pump.
- There are two types of penis pumps, namely air pressure pumps and hydro pressure pumps. According to medical experts, hydro pumps are said to be safer as the pressure values are supposed to stay well within the rupture points.
Penomet Penis Pump
The Penomet penis pump is said to be designed with the changeable gaiter as the core feature. The other important components of the pump are supposed to be its cylinder, valve and the pressure builder.
· The cylinder is stated to be made of transparent polycarbonate. This is an engineering grade plastic which is said to have high tensile strength and endurance levels for withstanding hydro pressure.
· The manufacturers have embedded a scale along the length of cylinder, which could be used for measuring the levels of water and pressure.
· Penomet is said to have 6 types of gaiters for varying the levels of differential pressure. This is represented from force-60 to force-85 in increments of 5. Each value of force is marked with a distinct color. Force-60 is purple, Force-65 is blue, Force-70 is black, Force-75 is grey, Force-80 is red and Force-85 is green. According to the manufacturers they are supposed to be used alternatively during the penis exercise routines.
· The recommended usage of the Penomet pump is said to be between 15 and 30 minutes for each session.
Role of Penomet Gaiter
When the user fits the gaiter into the cylinder and wears the water filled pump, he may be able to start building the pressure in gradual steps. While working with the device he can use the bathtub or the shower to keep his body relaxed.
The gaiter is said to be responsible for building the initial water pressure, enhancing for the suction and sustaining it until the release valve is opened.
- The gaiter is said to be made from silicon rubber with good stretching features. This material is supposed to be tested skin friendly nature and free from harmful chemicals.
- The design of the gaiter is said to be done for creating optimum suction pressure within the specified time period. The user may be able to control the speed of suction by reading the pressure scale and feeling his comfort level.
Suggested Penomet Usage
- The device is supposed to be worn in such a manner that the base of the gaiter touches the back end of the corpora cavernosa, leaving the sacks out.
- Once this is done the user can build the pressure by sealing the release valve. It might take a few strokes to find the right suction. Then the device is supposed to stay attached to the penis due to the water pressure built in the cylinder.
- Then the user is supposed to start the stretching exercises with the pump in place. He may perform up and down stretches for duration of 30 seconds for each direction. He is supposed to take a break for 1 or 2 minutes between two consecutive stretches.
- The manufacturers recommend the users to stay completely relaxed during the exercises routines to get the maximum stated benefits from the device.
Types of Stretches
According to the manufacturers, the user may perform 3 types of stretches using the Penomet pump. They recommend certain standard methods.
- Outward stretch in the forward direction is supposed to be for 30 seconds
- Upward stretch at a comfortable angle till the user is free from any sensation of pain. This exercise is also supposed to be for 30 seconds. The same procedure is said to be repeated for the downward stretch.
Jelqing Importance
Jelqing is supposed to be an exercise for the penis while working with the Penomet pump. According to the manufacturers, this could enhance the flexibility of the organ and avoid ruptures in the tissues and blood vessels. User may follow the instructions as given in the product manual for this exercise.
Pressure Release Valve
The pressure release valve of the Penomet pump is supposed to be used when the user feels excess pressure. He may feel it when he is engaged in the stretching exercises. The other instance is supposed to be the suction pressure build up.
On both the occasions he may open the release valve to let the water out. Once he feels the pressure is reaching optimum value, he may close the valve and continue with the session.
Exercising Schedule
According to the product manufacturers, the user is supposed to perform the stretching exercises for 10 weeks. During this time he is supposed to utilize the various colored gaiters. The exact permutation and combination of using the gaiters could be found in the product instruction manual.
Stated Benefits of Penomet Pump
The manufacturers have listed several benefits of using the Penomet pump for those users who might have erection dysfunction. These benefits are said to be from the physical and psychological perspectives.
Girth and Length Enhancement
According to the manufacturers, the device could also help in naturally increasing the girth and size of the penis. To support their argument, they put forward the theory of muscle mass development through physical workout. By applying the same logic they argue that it is possible to permanently increase the length and size of the penis in this manner of using the Penomet penis pump.
Male Erection
According to the neurologists erection is a phenomenon by which the penis attains the optimum length and girth for enabling intercourse. Erection is said to happen in two phases from the flaccid state of the penis. The first state is said to be the semi-erect stage, when the tissues along the corpora cavernosa start stretching. The next stage, the blood vessels surrounding the twin channels of the cavernosa get filled up with oxygenated blood. This completes the process of hard on erection. This is supposed to last till the completion of the intercourse and ejaculation. Then the penis is supposed to return to the flaccid state.
Erectile Dysfunction
This is said to be the result of certain physical defects in the penis region. The other issue could be related to psychological defects which are practically out of the scope of this review.
Role of Penomet Pump
According to the manufacturers, the pump can help in conditioning the corpora cavernosa and veins around it to hold the blood for extended period of time. This is supposed to increase the duration of erection during the time of intercourse.
How it Works
- The pump is said to apply sustained and uniform pressure along the deep dorsal vein of the penis, extending from the base. This is supposed to act on all the critical parts of the penis, including circumflex vein, sinusoids, dorsal artery and the corpora cavernosa all along the length and girth.
- The average spinal activity is supposed to be enhanced by the regular exercises. As a result the penis tissues and blood vessels might get conditioned for extended endurance. To understand this process better, the manufacturers site the erection cycle from the stimulation stage till the erection.
- Erection is said to be maximum, when the cavernosa muscles get relaxed. This is supposed to cause a rush of blood flow into the corpora cavernosa. According to the manufacturers, Penomet can help in reducing the stress levels on this muscle. When the user performs stretching exercises wearing the device, the hydro pressure is supposed to spread uniformly around the external surface of the penis' cylindrical shape.
- When used over long period, the Penomet pump is also expected to enhance the autonomic and somatic neurons located within the veins around the cavernosa. Since they are supposed to get conditioned to hold blood for an extended period, the user might experience longer and stronger erections.
Who Could Benefit
According to the device manufacturers, men with erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, excess flaccid conditions and those having issues with the autonomic and somatic neurons could make use of Penomet.
- Men with erectile dysfunction could have problems with relaxation of the corpora cavernosa muscles. This could be due to excess of stress on this region. Penomet experts say this stress could be normalized with the continued usage of the device over long time. In the initial stages it might take longer time for the user to experience effective erections. According to the manufacturers, this can lead to permanent conditioning of the muscles to relax upon sexual stimulation.
- The other probable problem could be due to the inability of the corpora cavernosa to retain the blood within its interiors for a long time. According to Penomet experts this could be due to the weakened corpora cavernosa, Tunica and the deep dorsal vein. They claim that it is possible to enhance the tensile strength of these organs by using Penomet regularly.
- The extent to which peripheral pressure works on the veins and the tissues of the penis is said to be directly proportional to the level to which they are tuned and conditioned. According to neurologists, stretching the penis beyond a certain limit could result in external and internal damages. This could be a reason for the Penomet experts to recommend caution while using the device for stretching.
- The Penomet manufacturers have suggested the pressure to be maintained at the lower limit during the first few weeks of training. Users can read the instruction manual about the guidelines for using the color of gaiters. According to them this procedure could help in gradually increasing the endurance limits of the penis tissues and nerves.
Safety Parameters
According to the manufacturers, Penomet is said to be safe for usage in the long run. This is said to be due tom the features for controlling the pressure levels. The inner walls and surfaces are the components are said to be free from any hard materials and sharp projections.
Probable Limitations of Penomet
According to the manufacturers, the Penomet pump could be useful for those with most of the erectile dysfunction problems. This might seem perfectly logical by looking at the recovery rate for the affected people.
However there could be certain limitations when it comes to psychological complications involving the erectile dysfunction problems. According to medical experts they need to be liberated from the psychological issues troubling them in the initial stages. Once they are through this phase they may be able to get the maximum of stated benefits by the Penomet penis pump manufacturers.

Bathmate Penis Pump
The design of standard Bathmate pump is said to be made from the skin friendly materials like rubber, polycarbonate and the TPE. The spring is said to be made of stainless steel, which is supposed to be highly light in weight and rustproof. The main components of the device are
- Gaiter
- Gaiter pump
- Check valve and the cap
- Spring
- O-ring and the comfort ring
- Cylinder
Design Parameters
According to the manufacturers, the designing of the device is done by keeping the variable dimensions of the penis and the user safety and comfort. Some of the stated parameters are listed here.
- Maximum penis girth: - According to the designers, the device could support variable penis girth at the placid state and erect state. They say that sufficient space is provided while designing the diameter of the cylinder, the rings and gaiter. The Hercules and Goliath models are stated to be conforming to the quality of design standards expected by uses with different penis girth.
- Maximum penis length: - According to the designers, the length of the device, including the cylinder and the gaiter is supposed to be sufficient to accommodate any type of penis.
- Pressure resistance: -The usage of polycarbonate, rubber and stainless steel is said have enhanced the tensile strength of the device. They claim it can withstand sustained pressure levels over long time without breaking or leaking.
- Vacuum volume: - This is supposed to be one of the critical parameters which could affect the erectile characteristics of the penis. The balance between air and water pressure in bars is said to be sufficient to ensure optimum length and girth increase.
Gaiter Properties
The design of gaiter pump is said to be optimized for exerting sustained pressure along the path of cylinder and check valve until the valve cap. The comfort ring the top of gaiter is said to be made of soft and skin friendly rubber. When the user wears the device this ring is could fit in to the base of the penis in such a manner that could block leakage.
The gaiter pump is said to be designed for maximum efficiency under variable usage conditions. The flexible material could ensure optimum pressure buildup within the specified time frame.
Comfort Ring Properties
The comfort ring is said to be designed to provide maximum cushioning effects to the circumference of the penis it contacts. At the same time it could exert the optimum volume of pressure onto the penis base so it can hold onto it without slipping away.
· When the penis is in the placid state, the comfort ring might not be tight fit. The user is supposed to build the water pressure by using the gaiter pump. This is when the penis is expected to grow in its girth and length to the semi-erect state. At this point the comfort ring could fit correctly around the perimeter of the penis.
· When the hydropump pressure is increasing gradually, the penis base could experience variation in the fitting tightness. The design of the comfort ring is said to be made in a way which could produce sealing effects within the shortest time after using the pump.
Gaiter Pump Properties
The hydro pump attached to the gaiter is said to be designed to enable optimum pressure buildup within the chamber. At this stage the pump could produce the correct volume of vacuum generated by hydro pressure.
· This sort of vacuum is said to be safe and optimum for attaining the most optimum level of erection.
· The level to which erection can be sustained is said to depend on the pump's ability to maintain the vacuum. This could vary when the user stretches the device for performing penis exercises. The ability to maintain constant pressure is said to be achieved by the intrinsic design of the hydro pump.
O-Ring Properties
· The O-Ring of Bathmate is placed very close to the spring, enabling it to control the vacuum and the hydro pressure level within the body of the device. As the user increases the pressure from the pump, its impact could be felt by the spring and the valve body.
· The reverse pressure from the valve body side could be a critical factor which might place the penis in a position of stress. The O-Ring is said to be designed in a manner to keep the spring tension constant in the negative direction for a given value of the pressure from the hydro pump. The combinational effect is said to result in the enhanced penis enlargement.
Spring Properties
The Bathmate device spring is said to be made of stainless steel with optimum number of windings. According to the manufacturer, they are designed to endure the hydro pressure and balance it within the tolerance limits. This is said to be responsible for reducing the pressure on the check valve by absorbing it within its windings.
Valve Body Properties
· For achieving the most optimum results, the direction of the Bathmate device is supposed to be tilted upwards. In this position the negative pressure from the valve body could make the penis to increase its girth and length.
· The sensation of vacuum on the penis head and the length of corpora cavernosa is said to increase when the device is held vertically upwards. The valve body is said to be designed in a manner to balance this with the hydro pressure created by the pump at every stage. This could remove unhealthy stress on penis, letting it stretch and expand freely.
Valve Cap Properties
The valve cap of Bathmate is supposed to withstand the hydro pressure exerted by the pump. This is said to increase when the user presses the device into the pelvic seat, which results in the compression of the bellows in the gaiter. The valve has to withstand this pressure until the user opens it to release its intensity. This is said to be made possible by the design of the valve and the endurance capacity of the polycarbonate material.
How it Works
The Bathmate penis pump is said to be made simple in its functionality with the design features. According to the manufacturers, the coordination between the parts is responsible for the efficient functioning of the device.
- The complete design of the device is said enable optimum erection of the penis which could be sustained for long time.
- The device could be filled with water from a shower or bathtub easily. Once the water is filled, the user can slide the device over the penis and pres it against his pelvic seat.
- The gaiter bellows get adjusted to fit into the pelvic portion and seal the portion when optimum level of negative pressure is attained.
- The user could eliminate the air molecules from the inner parts of the device by just leaning back while using it. This is said to be made possible by the design of the gaiter and comfort ring.
- The ratio between the compression and force pressure for the hydro power based device like Bathmate is said to be geometric. That means a small increase in the gaiter pressure could result in large volume of pressure on the penis. This is said to be responsible for the creation of optimum vacuum levels within the device's cylinder.
- The act of balancing the vacuum within the device is said to be achieved due to the creation and releasing mechanism in each session. According to the manufacturers, the presence of vacuum for a few seconds could enhance the probability of holding back the blood circulating into the cavernosa region. When this exercise is repeated over time, this might be able to condition the veins and tissues within the cavernosa to retain the blood over extended period of time.
Who Could Benefit
Men facing issues with attaining and sustaining penile erections could benefit from the design and functional features of Bathmate.
- The volume of vascular relaxation obtained by the inner vessels of the corpora cavernosa is said to be enhanced by the optimum pressure within the body of the device.
- The pressure on corpus spongiosum is said to cause the blood flow within the cavernosa region to be smooth and fast. According to device designers, this pressure could start from the lowest levels and reach the optimum levels, as the user keeps working with the device over long time.
- Men having problems with penile shrinkage might be able to benefit from the regular usage of the device. According to medical science, the shrinkage of penis could happen due to stress on the inner tissues and veins of the cavernosa region. In some instances this shrinkage could happen even before the intercourse has begun. Men usually find this sort of problem to be more complex in nature. By using the Bathmate pump consistently, it could be possible to strengthen the tissues and nerves within the cavernosa region. In some men the results might be observed faster, while in others it may take time. The manufacturers advise the users to keep using the device in an optimum level as prescribed in the user manual to make the results possible.
- Exposing the penis consistently to the hydro pressure exerted within Bathmate could result in exercising of the corpora cavernosa region. Though it may not result in creation of new cells, it might lead to stretching of the cavernosa to certain extent. Since this happens along the length as well as the diametric sections, the girth and length of the cavernosa might increase over a period of time.
- One of the reasons for premature ejaculation is said to be the weakness in the cavernous artery and the trabecular muscle located within the corpora cavernosa. When the penis is exposed to the hydro pressure within the Bathmate, this might help in increasing the endurance levels of these two organs. So the blood retaining pressure level within this region could increase gradually. The other important parameter is said to be the degree to which this muscle gets expended. The expansion ratio is said to be enhanced due to the hydro pressure exerted on the vasodilators present within the cavernosa region. According to the designers, the device can also enhance the expansion of sinusoid blocks, once blood has entered the cavernosa region. This might increase the blood retaining capacity of the penis for an extended period of time. As a result the penis could be able to stay in the erect state for a longer time before ejaculation.
Safety Parameters
The safety parameters of the Bathmate penis pump are said to be enhanced by the design and construction of the critical parts of the device. The valve cap is said to be one of the most important safety factors. The user could be able to regulate the pressure within the device by releasing the water when the internal pressure goes beyond tolerance limits
The comfort ring, the gaiter body and the safety valve body are said to be designed to maintain optimum negative pressure. This might prevent the penis from experiencing excessive stress at any point of time.
Probable Limitations of Bathmate
One of the limitations faced by the Bathmate could be its applicability for men suffering from heart problems, hyper tension and diabetic conditions. The overall effectiveness of the device could be reduced among these people, due to the probable side effects in the long run. They may be advised to consult their doctor before being able to utilize the Bathmate penis pump. By referring to the safety instructions and user limitations provided in the manual, it is possible to get more information.
>>>>Click here to see my Bathmate review<<<<
After going through the features of Penomet and Bathmate brand, the Penomet could be recommended as an effective device. This could be due to its capacity to hold various types of gaiters. This feature is said to be helpful for the users to elevate their experience of correcting erection issues in stages.
At every stage the user might be able to go at his pace, by getting used to one type of gaiter at a time. This might also help in avoiding excess pressure on the penis, which would have resulted in external and internal damages to the penis in the long run. This is said to be an added safety feature, though it may not be explicitly stated.

From Hotels to Homes
The words, "There was this hotel I really liked…" have turned up more and more frequently when discussing design aesthetic with a client. People travel and explore for retreat and inspiration, and often when they return, homeowners realize that they can have a similar escape at home too.
This past week I had the honor of hearing architect David Rockwell speak on what inspires him to create the hotels, restaurants, theater sets and other spaces for which he is famous. The Rockwell Group, founded by Rockwell in 1984, has imagined and built some of the most creative structures seen in recent years. From a journey-like experience in an Asian restaurant to a moving train on a Broadway stage, the company's creations drive the hospitality world and therefore are leaking into our residential designs.
"The barrier between work, home life and socializing is more permeable than ever," said Rockwell. "So it's making sense to mash up several ideas into one."
By this he's referring to the idea of taking what people want – like a beach house – and finding a way to insert it into the mundane place they need it to go, like a plain old office space. He reaches for inspiration around the world to find ways to incorporate these ideas practically, and we can use similar methods in residences. Here are some of my takeaways from his inspiring talk.
Fear up front is a good thing. Having been asked to do the stage set for the Academy Awards, Rockwell was intimidated by the scathing criticism the ceremony often gets. He took on the challenge by looking at choreography and movement.
"People move in arc movements," he said, explaining how the importance of a journey to a space is just as important as the space itself.
Only 20 percent of a project creates the memory. In TAO Downtown in New York City, the restaurant is laid out in such a way that the entrance feels like a transformation into a different world. The main seating area, set up in a unique theater format, faces a giant statue illuminated by projected animation. Even though the majority of the budget went to the statue's animation, most of the diners say they remember the statue more than anything else in the building.
Environments tell a story. Looking to the past for inspiration is old news, but by melding different parts of the past – like 60s air travel and Japanese hospitality in Yotel hotel – an entirely new space can form.
There is a power in things changing. Designers are no strangers to this. Rockwell felt this experience the most after 9/11, when he was asked by a New York mother to build a playground to replace the one destroyed by the attacks. His creation resulted in a series of building-block playgrounds called Imagination Playgrounds, which have changed communities around the world.
"Be curious," Rockwell said. "You'll see how the eccentric things you love in design can pay off in the future."

ASH in UK Comes Clean on Electronic Cigarette Health Debate
"e-cigarettes, which deliver nicotine without the harmful toxins found in discount tobacco, are likely to be a safer alternative to smoking."
Action on Smoking and Health (ASH) In their October briefing, ASH in the United Kingdom has released a favorable position on electronic cigarettes which is nearly 180 degrees to the position ASH in the United States has taken.
ASH's UK Position on E-cigarettes
"ASH supports a harm reduction approach to tobacco, that is, we recognize that whilst efforts to help people stop smoking should remain a priority, many people either do not wish to stop smoking or find it very hard to do so. For this group, we believe that products should be made available that deliver nicotine in a safe way, without the harmful components found in tobacco. Most of the diseases associated with smoking are caused by inhaling smoke which contains thousands of toxic chemicals. By contrast, nicotine is relatively safe. Therefore, e-cigarettes, which deliver nicotine without the harmful toxins found in tobacco smoke, are likely to be a safer alternative to smoking. In addition, e-cigarettes reduce secondhand smoke exposure since they do not produce smoke."
Kyle Newton of eCigarettesChoice.com is elated at the release. "This is the second piece of good news for the E cigarette industry this week. The first was Governor Schwarzenegger's refusal to ban E cigarettes in California. It is a David vs. Goliath battle for us against organizations that are well-funded by companies who stand to lose a huge market share to the E cigarette."
On the other side of the big pond, ASH, USA has hammered the electronic cigarette industry unmercifully in its public claims against the product. But throughout this entire finger pointing, they have failed to produce any scientific research which tested the electronic cigarette and could trump the positive data "real" tobacco researchers have published.
ASH, USA and spokespersons of other health organizations continue to make weak accusations stating that they "don't know what's in them" and that, because flavors are involved, "children may be attracted to them". While a spec of truth may be found in any of these statements, they appear to lean more towards gross exaggeration or pure fiction. Kyle claims, "Not one US electronic cigarette dealer I know of would knowingly sell to those under the legal age of smoking."
Misleading statements continue to be made by health organization PR representatives who are well-educated on this subject, yet choose to ignore the widely publicized Health New Zealand's tests on the Ruyan electronic cigarette that list the ingredients and give the electronic cigarette the green light. When confronted with Health New Zealand's report, they claim that the study was not independent because it was paid for by the electronic cigarette maker which is the industry norm.
Prominent doctors and tobacco researchers, including Dr. Michael Siegel at the Boston University School of Public Health, Dr. Joel Nitzkin of the AAPHP Tobacco Control Task Force, and Dr. Brad Rodu, Endowed Chair, Tobacco Harm Reduction Research University of Louisville continue to publish unbiased scientific benefits of the electronic smokes that counter the misleading information
It may be impossible to please these health organizations since their resistance to e cigarettes may be affected by their addictive funding from the manufacturers of smoking cessation products. A better harm reduction alternative to smoking tobacco does not appear to be their priority or they would be partnering with the e cigarette industry.

Combatting hypocrisy was a passion for Jesus.
Webster's Dictionary definition states that Christianity is a practice of a religion, a belief, dating back to Nazareth. Talk about crucifying Christianity!! Now, I know I may not be the brightest light in the midnight sky, but I beg to differ with this description. I've practiced a lot of things but I never saw attending church as a practice. Practice isn't a commitment! Doctors practice medicine, athletes practice their sport. And as far as their definition of it being a belief? OK, maybe that's where our generations differ. Christianity, in my opinion, is about being and living Christlike—hence, the first part of the adjective.
Christianity, I'd like to believe, is a way of life–waking in the morning and asking God to bless your day; or praying to our heavenly father to forgive those who trespass against us, as we go to sleep. Do you practice, at our age, what we should have mastered by now–praying? Right or wrong, it's a way of life for Christians.
I wander in my thoughts….
Some can recite bible scripture backwards, but does that make them a better Christian or more Christlike? Or is it those that wake in the morning to give of themselves, showing respect and honoring others, and living by the commandments that have been passed down? Christianity – is that when someone forces you out of your driving lane, or is it using some choice words to say how grateful you aren't for their stupidity? NO! That's crucifying the meaning behind Christianity!
The words, "I'll pray for you", does that pertain to practicing? Helping you on with your coat or holding a door…. maybe. But that's being courteous and isn't that what Christ would want? Christ could care less if you're a Baptist, Catholic, or Presbyterian and those who follow His footsteps should know better than that! You treat everyone equally because it's a way of LIFE–a life that brings you to God in the end. As Christians, we should respect all whom are born into God's kingdom!
Ah…and now for the Christian hypocrites – those who could care less how they drive others out of their lane, while they read the Bible over breakfast! Their swords wave as they swear. Their hearts are less than the brains God gave them (though they don't consider that as an option). So many–hiding behind the words they read and living by the rules that are only applicable to suit themselves. Perhaps they are the people that Webster's definition refers to when we speak of Christianity – practicing a religion!
Combatting hypocrisy was a passion for Jesus. In fact, much of Matthew 23 is dedicated to this topic:
"'Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside but on the inside are full of the bones of the dead and everything unclean. In the same way, on the outside you appear to people as righteous but on the inside you are full of hypocrisy and wickedness.'"
According to God's wishes, we as Christians, must make it our duty to enlighten hypocrites of their wrongdoings. Be vulnerable, honest, and authentic with these unbelievers. Let them acknowledge their sins so they may share in the freedom of God's forgiveness. Jesus encourages us to make disciples, not just "save" people, so let's pitch in to help the hypocrites who are crucifying Christianity!
So, tomorrow when you wake, will you read your bible over breakfast, or scalp the neighbor that lives next door to you? Will you scream at the kids when it's really your fault? Will your spouse get a hug and kiss goodbye as you go out the door and into your car?
Now tell me…. what part of practicing a belief is Christianity in your everyday walk of life? Are you, too, crucifying Christianity by knowing the Word yet living by your own demeanor? Or are you trying to do a better job of being the best you can be to others? If you're only attempting to try, then maybe you are practicing after all!

Google's new data visualization creator makes your research look better.
According to the company's announcement, "Data visualizations are an essential storytelling tool in journalism, and though they are often intricate, they don't have to be complex." Mashable author Freia Lobo explains how the new Data GIF Maker presents facts and figures in a more eye-catching way.
The tool is extremely user-friendly: just add two terms along with their titles, values, and a short description. The engine will quickly generate an animated gif of the data. It's still at a basic stage and can only compare two data sets, so it's not the best fit for complex comparisons. However, the added color and motion make it a lot more pleasant to look at than just plain numbers and text.

Following is a speech by the Commissioner for Tourism, Miss Margaret Fong, at the opening ceremony of Asia Funeral Expo 2009 this morning (May 13):
Mr (Kenny) Lo, Mr (John) Reed, Mr (Andrew) Wylegala, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen,
It's a great pleasure for me to join you this morning at the opening ceremony of the Asia Funeral Expo 2009.
First, a very warm welcome to you all, especially to those of you who have travelled thousands of miles to be with us today.
I am particularly happy to learn that this show is the first of its kind in Hong Kong, underscoring our city's position as a sourcing hub, and unleashing new opportunities for this unique business in the region.
The Bible says, "A time to be born, and a time to die." - how very true. People these days are taking a more open-minded attitude to death care and are more prepared to discuss their own funeral and burial arrangements.
No wonder then the widely-acclaimed Japanese film, Departures, awarded Oscar's best foreign language film this year, touches the hearts of so many. It reminds us of the importance of paying respects to those who go before us and the dedicated funeral professionals who work hard to ensure a dignified and fitting farewell for our loved ones.
The East-meets-West culture in Hong Kong provides an ideal platform to bring together global leaders to exchange market intelligence, source new products and technologies, as well as to review the challenges facing the funeral industry.
I wish the expo every success and all of you a rewarding exchange at the trade conference.
I hope you will find time during your stay to savour our excellent cuisine, enjoy our world-class shopping. You can also take a ride on the Star Ferry across the harbour during our "A Symphony of Lights" show every night at 8pm and see our beautiful skyline light up in a blaze of colours, a manifestation of the vitality and diversity that defines Hong Kong.
I look forward to welcoming you back to Hong Kong on many future occasions. Thank you.

The snow-capped Pyrenees mountain range is the immense natural barrier that forms the borders between Spain, France and Andorra and cuts the Iberian Peninsula off from the rest of Europe. One of Spain's five mountain ranges, the Pyrenees stretch some 450 kilometres from the Bay of Biscay on the Atlantic to the Mediterranean Sea, reaching an elevation of up to 4404 metres.
The scenery is diverse and dramatic, with towering craggy peaks, serene shimmering mountain lakes, thundering waterfalls, pristine forests and powerful clear water rivers that cut through leafy green valleys. Picturesque medieval villages complete with their individual Romanesque churches lie scattered throughout the region, adding the finishing touches to the landscape.
It is hardly surprising that the area is rich in wildlife with a proliferation of wild goats as well as bearded vultures, golden eagles and peregrine falcons circling the skies. The park's largest lake, Estany de Sant Maurici , is set at an elevation of 1950 metres and overlooked by rugged 2900 metre serrated peaks. This beautiful glacial lake changes colour from aquamarine to turquoise to azure blue as the park's emblem, the twin crags of Els Encantats (or Enchanted Mountains) gaze at their own image mirrored in the stillness of the lake's waters.Most of the terrain that falls under Spain's domain is known as the Catalan Pyrenees. The region covered by the Aiguestortes i Estany de Sant Maurici National Park is the jewel in the Catalan Pyrenees' crown and is superb trekking country in the summer months. Majestic landscapes with stunning views abound. Walkers and trekkers find themselves in nature's art gallery, with a landscape painted with ancient forests of firs and black pines and dotted with striking, blue mountain lakes, of which there are nearly 200 in the park.

The bite was strong in the afternoon this past week. Cooler mornings have had fish sluggish. Once the sun warms the water, the fish get frisky. Live bait is easily accessible on nearly any flat I've been on in the middle bay. A little chum and a few throws fill the well. Snook have been active during the afternoon and gorging at times on chummed baits, then slipping up and eating one with a hook. When approaching a perspective area, I cover it with chummers to get them to feed. Once they begin feeding, slow the freebie to a half-dozen, at most, then cast on the targets they give you. If you have to fish the morning, mackerel are all over the deeper grass edges and the wrecks and rock piles across the bay. Mackerel are fun on light tackle. A 40-pound leader is a must as well as a long shank hook sized to match the bait. The upcoming front should shake things up. Don't be afraid to swing in the bait shop and grab some shrimp.

|is this what you wanted?
is it?
take a good long look
drink it in
looks like
she got a special mother's day treat
Especially the ones about little boys who grow into handsome and kind young men with dimples who still bring their mother flowers and need her help tying a tie for the big day, and who lead her out onto the dance floor at the wedding for a mother-son dance and whisper "I love you, Mommy" in her ear and
For real, you guys. Who decided that what mothers needed most was MORE SHIT TO CRY OVER??? We've already got lead to stay awake over, earthquakes to worry about, our baby's kisses to move us to tears, our toddler coming home from school whispering into his chest, "I don't think my friends like me anymore."
I'm not the Grinch, okay? My heart doesn't need to grow three sizes today. Slow your fucking roll.
Which marketing juggernaut was like, "wait wait wait wait I got it y'all. This Mother's Day let's remind moms how brief and precious their time is with their children, how fast it all goes, how it feels like only a day goes by between the first gummy smile and the nervous grin on the first day of school with a backpack that is empty but for a stuffed tiger..."
Seriously! Whose idea was it? Was it you, Fay? It was, wasn't it?
You're the one who came up with the concept of the beautifully-shot montage of a sleeping little boy: first he's a baby bundled on his mother's chest, a tiny smile curving his perfect lips. Then a toddler, a limp sack of limbs being carried to bed on his mother's shoulder. The next shot is the teenager, asleep in bed, who never knows that his mother comes into the room, tucks the kicked-off covers up to his chin, and kisses his forehead, lingering long enough to breathe in the smell of his hair
I don't even click on the videos. They start playing automatically, muted, and even without sound I can't help but pause. You designed them to be arresting. Well done you.
But seriously, I KNOW. I already KNOW that watching them grow up is terrible ecstasy, beautiful agony. I already KNOW how much it hurts to see your child outgrow peek-a-boo, the way you refuse to believe it and can't really talk about it the first time you pat your lap for story time and he says, "I think I'll sit next to you this time, Mommy." No! No! No! Not yet!
I KNOW, OKAY? It breaks my heart every fucking day, how much I love them, how terribly gone yesterday is, how terribly gone today is about to be.
If I want to cry all I have to do is sit down and THINK ABOUT THE TWO WILD AND PRECIOUS LOVES OF MY LIFE, and if you count backwards from 10 I'll be open-mouthed sobbing by the time you hit 6.
Chicken asked me if he would ever be as tall as me. I said, "someday you'll even be taller," and he said, "and then I'll stroke your hair."
Buster looked up when I walked into the room, smiled, and sighed, "Mommy." He walked to me, slowly but directly, and sagged onto my legs, wrapping his arms around my calves. He looked up at me and said, "home."
You got it? I KNOW someday they'll be sullen and secretive and masturbating in the bathroom while the shower runs into the empty stall. I KNOW someday they'll get drunk or high. I KNOW someday someone will say, "let's jump into the lake from this tree," and I won't be there to hold their hands and keep them on the earth and they'll have to decide. I KNOW.
I don't NEED YOU to craft a fucking infomercial to tell me that they're the only thing that I could not live without. I don't NEED YOU to tell me that they make me so fucking crazy and so fucking happy, okay?
I don't NEED YOU to reassure me that all of the late nights of rocking, all of the messes and tantrums and midnight runs to urgent care and midnight kitchen table conferences with my husband to figure out how we can afford all the things for the children and all the thousands of heartbreaking mistakes and devastating fights and paralyzing fears, that it's all - that they're all so fucking WORTH IT, okay? I KNOW.
So this year, for Mother's Day, all I really want is for you to stop making me cry.
Thank you very much.

A little poem I wrote about imagination and creativity:
I dipped my toes into the wide sea of imagination.
I felt whispers of far-off currents, charged with kinetic purpose.
I sensed velvety depths where ideas lurk, before floating to the surface,
to clash, in foamy surf, with all that has already been judged
by the sure rays of the sun.
Now I stand firmly, ankle deep.
The tide excavates the sand beneath my feet.
With each delicate drag, it pulls me deeper and deeper,
so that someday, if I stand persistently,
and trust stubbornly,
it might consent to consume me completely.
My feet are buried in the sea, and I am the sea.
And I dearly wish to catch a current, and learn it, and braid myself into it,
to let it carry me.
What fun to be a wave, whose journey ends in energetic, clapping, glory,
a million kisses to the silky shore,
sparkling and alive and loud and unique,
giving all that it has and taking only what it should.
Of all the waves, let me be one.
Let me gather myself boldly from the deepness, and befriend a current,
and find myself, in glittering chaos exposed, ebullient.
To saturate the sand, so that it might reflect the sun and sky,
for a few moments of my own.

Matthew Perry Will Miss NBC's 'Friends' Reunion
Could this be any more of a bummer?
After NBC announced that all six "Friends" cast members would take part in a special honoring acclaimed sitcom director James Burrows, USA Today has reported that only five will actually be in attendance.
Matthew Perry's spokeswoman Lisa Kasteler stated that the actor will miss the reunion because "he is in London in rehearsals for his play, 'The End of Longing.'" Kasteler then stated that NBC executives knew this when they made their announcement at the winter TCAs on Wednesday. "Matthew may tape something for the tribute," added Kasteler. "In other words, this is not the reunion people have been hoping for."
Perry played Chandler Bing for all of "Friends'" 10 seasons, growing from being Joey's (Matt LeBlanc) sarcastic roommate and Ross' (David Schwimmer) college buddy to Monica's (Courteney Cox) husband. LeBlanc, Schwimmer and Cox are still expected to take part in the reunion, alongside co-stars Jennifer Aniston and Lisa Kudrow.
The NBC special honoring James Burrows will be filmed later this month to air Sunday, Feb. 21, at 9 p.m. ET/PT.

Salma Hayek is moving to London with her French billionaire husband Francois-Henri Pinault and their six-year-old daughter.
The Mexican actress and her husband of five years are moving from Paris, France - where his luxury goods brand is based - to a rented house in West London.
When asked what prompted the move, Hayek immediately slams suggestions the couple was influenced by the new 75 per cent tax law in France, telling British newspaper The Times, "I want to clarify, it's not for tax reasons. We are still paying taxes here in France.
"We think that London has a lot more to offer than just a better tax situation. Francois is very excited; he thinks London is very cosmopolitan. I think it will be good for my career too.
"Finding the house has been so stressful. We are redecorating now. Francois and I are looking at lots of interiors magazines. It's our five-year wedding anniversary and it's like we're moving in together for the first time, a new chapter."
Hayek is also struggling to find the right school for her daughter Valentina, adding, "(The school bosses) want to put her one year behind, because she is born in September, and I disagree with the system. As good as schools are, if they don't recognize how special my child is - she speaks three languages and understands five - then they're not that good, are they?!"

A new pill has come out that claims to help you get the beach body you have always wanted. Thermbuterol Hardcore also claims to help athletes push their body past the natural limits. The creators of Thermbuterol Hardcore promise that this drug will give you no crash energy, help reduce water weight, and act as an appetite suppressant. These promises can be enticing to anyone, but does Thermbuterol Hardcore actually help you lose weight?
A Look into the Ingredients
A look into what is inside of Thermbuterol Hardcore will help us determine if it is a good product or not. Thermbuterol Hardcore has one proprietary blend. These blends are difficult for reviewers to tell if a product is effective because proprietary blends never tell consumers the amount of ingredients that are in it. However, it is still wise to look over what information Thermbuterol Hardcore producers do give us.
A couple of ingredients in the blend are caffeine anhydrous, 4-methyllhexan-2-amine hcl, corynanthe extract, and kola nut. The Dandelion leaf extract found in this blend can help you lose the extra water weight. Unfortunately this can lead to constant urination and dehydration. It is recommended that you drink quite a bit of water when consuming this product.
The Cost of Thermbuterol Hardcore
Something every shopper worries about is the price of the product they are trying to buy. Thermbuterol Hardcore costs $79.99 on the main website. For only a 500mg pill, that is a little pricy. Thermbuterol Hardcore also does not come with a 100% money back guarantee. In order to get your money back, you have to return the unopened product within 30 days of your purchase.
It is possible to find Thermbuterol Hardcore cheaper online, but it can still be pricy. Thermbuterol Hardcore can be expensive, so people who wish to purchase this product should budget their money so they can afford it.
The Overall Conclusion
Overall, Thermbuterol Hardcore does not seem like a product worth buying. There is not enough ingredients to make it worth $79.99 or enough research done on this product. It would be wise to look elsewhere for a weight loss pill for those looking for long term results.

The Syriac [Assyrian] Military Council -- a member of the U.S.-backed Syrian Democratic Forces -- has announced it will send units to fight in Afrin, risking being cut from the global coalition fighting ISIS.
The MFS "decided to send reinforcements to [the] Afrin battle to defend Afrin people from Turkish invasion," the group said in a statement Sunday.
"We appeal to the international community as Syriac Christian people and urge them to stop the barbaric Turkish attack and support us by all means," the group's statement said.
The MFS has been historically allied with the People's Protection Units, or YPG, currently engaged against Turkish forces in northern Syria, but their recent decision could risk severing the group from their U.S. allies.
"We would review their support, try to determine their intentions, talk to them, and if they decide that this is what they got to do, we would absolutely not support them," Eric Pahon, a Pentagon spokesman, said.
The MFS is a relatively small militia within the Syrian Democratic Forces, which fought in the liberation of Raqqa, among other battles. Many of group's fighters are part of the Assyrian Christian minority. As such, they tended to attract volunteer fighters from western countries.
"Any forces that decide to move to Afrin will not receive continued Coalition support," a spokesperson for Operation Inherent Resolve said in a statement to Military Times.
"The Coalition has been clear: military operations in Afrin are a distraction to the defeat-Daesh fight," the statement read. "We are not providing training, equipment or support to operations in Afrin and continue to be focused on defeating Daesh, particularly in the Middle Euphrates River Valley."

Heating inspection and air conditioning inspection (or HVAC inspection) is one of the most important aspects while you are ensuring safety point of view.
Home Inspection Star introduces on-site inspections of heating and air conditioning systems so as to facilitate and uphold their right amendment in accordance with the product arrangement and in that method they make certain most favorable performance from an environmental point.
Home Inspection Star has a comprehensive inspection regarding the subject of generator (boiler or air conditioner) which takes into account the entire heating and cooling system, and has incorporated in the report a section on recommendations for cost-effective improvements and thus indicating that the commendation should be "based on a contrast of the energy performance of the system inspected with that of the most excellent accessible reasonable system.
Some of the difficulties that may hinder the path with the heating & air conditioning inspection is: firstly, any on-site inspection has a linked cost and thereby not willing to use public finances for this task unless it was clearly demonstrated to be economically permissible.
Determining the likely energy reduction impact of an inspection system is not simple, therefore the cost efficiency of inspections is still not evidently established across the full assortment of heating and cooling systems accessible on the market in the present day.
There are also a number of merits of inspections when it comes to Heating and Air-conditioning Inspection (or HVAC inspection).
Taking into consideration all the likely options for endorsing improvements of energy efficiency in building systems:
There are a huge number of information campaigns carried out not just to make sure that the inspecting is proving out to be fruitful for you.
Now comes the delivery of individual advice by energy-info-centres and this is another very important principle for endorsing improvements of energy efficiency in building systems.
For promoting improvements of energy efficiency in building systems there is another key point and that is allocating incentives using public budget money.

"Today you are you! That is truer than true! There is no one alive who is you-er than you!" - Dr. Seuss
Miss Lennon is a hoot!! I met her mama last year, jus one month shy of Lennon's arrival. We hit it off rather quickly and I couldn't wait to meet this sweetie! When she arrived, I stopped by her home and captured an adorable 7 day old portrait of her with mama and papa (she already had a formal newborn session scheduled), this was very spur of the moment. I start working with Talie, Lennon's mama, and many of you have had the pleasure of meeting her as my assistant during maternity and newborn sessions. I've had the pleasure of capturing her 3 month, 6 months and now one year milestones :)
She's been my little model for new outfits and props and always does such a great job. This time around, I've been wanting to capture and offer Spaghetti Smashes in additional to Cake Smashes for my milestone sessions. Many kids simply don't like cake or sweets, but most kids do have spaghetti by the age of one and typically love it!
Lennon is incredibly adorable, she doesn't sit still for a second and does an amazing Army crawl. She had her mama, myself and my mom working tirelessly the entire session to keep her contained - until she had some food in front of her of course and then she sat still and munched on yummy spaghetti and lemon cake! Yum!
I'm so thrilled with how the gallery turned out - Lennon was absolutely perfect for this session!

Ranger Reports
These end-of-season reports were written by rangers stationed at backcountry ranger stations in Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Parks. The reports span the years 1983 to 2004, although reports are missing for some years and for some stations. By the end of 2016 we hope/expect to make newer ranger reports available.
In these reports, rangers document wilderness issues that also concern the High Sierra Hikers Association, such as:

About These Ranger Reports
Backcountry ranger stations are typically located on major trails, and are staffed during the peak visitor season, late May/early June until shortly after Labor Day. Rangers patrol the area around their stations, answer visitors' questions, assist with illnesses and injuries, and enforce park regulations.
The file names (such as 1986CharlotteDurkee.pdf) of the ranger reports have three parts:
Most of the typewritten ranger reports are searchable. To search through all of the reports, use the search box on this page. To search in a single report, locate the report, click the report to open it, and then search. The handwritten reports are not searchable.

Three to four year old's love physical activity and anything involving play. They have a rich imagination and strong desire to be less dependent on their usual caregivers. The problem we discovered is that many children this age have a hard time with structure in a group environment like what is commonly found in most Martial Arts schools. The solution we found is to provide them with their own program that targets their stage of development in a manner that keeps them entertained while at the same time building skills that set them up for success. With that said, a structured program introducing early skill-based training in Martial Arts has proven to be very successful.
By understanding the stages of development of 3 & 4 year old's, we were able to select 8 age-appropriate skills that make up the Early SKILLZ Program:
We cover one of the above skills per class (in order). During each class we run a warm-up; deliver a mat chat about the skill; run two or three skill-building drills; and then we have them demonstrate the skill to earn their skill-stripe. They must earn all 8 skill-stripes in order to graduate to the next belt level. Once they earn their next belt they will continue to run through all 8 skills earning their skill-stripes with more challenging curriculum as they advance to each rank. They graduate to the Basic SKILLZ program after they have successfully completed all 9 belt ranks of the Early SKILLZ program.
Here is an example of what a white belt must demonstrate for each of the 8 skills above in order to earn their next belt:
As you can see we take Martial Arts training to a whole new level! We use early elements of traditional Martial Arts curriculum's to build skills that are appropriate for 3 and 4 year old's. This means that your child will learn and grow at a pace that is not too easy, nor too challenging. The best part is the Early SKILLZ program will equip your child with skills that they will utilize in every area of their life!

Autumn/Winter 2014: What you need to know
1. English Flannel
Flannel is making a welcome comeback this season. Lighter and thinner than previous generations, you can wear it a lot of different ways, including in double-breasted suits. The traditional flannel suit is a single breasted, 2 button, light grey suit, but there is an abundance of choices this season ranging from medium blue check jacketing to burgundy.
Gray flannel pants are a skeleton key to the fall wardrobe, and the lighter the shade of gray, the more versatile they are. Lighter grays can easily make the transition from work to weekends while darker shades are mostly for the office.
2. Wider Lapels
For the last few seasons, designers have favored narrow, skinny lapels. For AW2014, the pendulum has swung the other way towards a wider peak and notch lapel. The additional width makes for a bolder, more formal and definitely more prominent entrance. The greater use of peak lapels on jackets and coats adds to the sense of a more formal look for the season.
Traditionally, lapels on Bespoke jackets are cut according to the size of one's chest so that they are proportional. Whilst we always recommend adhering to tradition for work suits, there is a lot more room for creativity when creating sports jackets, blazers (except for the timeless blue blazer) and coats.
3. Checks Checks & Checks
Checks remain popular this season, especially on separates such as jackets and trousers. Not as brazen and bold as previous years, the patterns used are more complementary as opposed to contrasting.
Fabrics with checks have always been the third choice when creating a wardrobe; first you would created a solid suit (charcoal grey or midnight blue), then a stripe (a grey or navy pinstripe), possibly another solid and only then would you consider adding a checked fabric to your repertoire. Whilst this still holds true for suits, the greater availability of luxury fabrics with checked designs, along with their greater acceptability, means that a checked blazer is now a very viable alternative.
4. Slim Trousers
When purchasing or even looking for a suit, the greatest attention has always been paid to the fit and feel of the jacket. Whilst this is understandable, it has often resulted in men pairing perfectly fitting jackets with a pair of trousers that are either skin tight, too baggy and definitely not the right length.
Finally, it appears that a middle path has been reached this season with trousers that are tapered but not body hugging. However, the current trend towards cropped trousers, where there is no break or there is even a little ankle showing is unacceptable in a formal or even casual scenario.
