Europe and the Changing Global Order 2013
The EURECO Distinguished Lecture Series 2013 explored the political, legal, economic, and societal aspects of Europe in the context of a changing global order.
The idea of an ever more integrated Europe is currently faced with a set of critical challenges that raise fundamental questions regarding the directions, dynamics, and viability of the European project.
17 September:
Ben Rosamond, Centre for European Politics, Department of Political Science, University of Copenhagen:
In this lecture Rosamond gives an introduction to the challenges facing Europe in a rapidly changing global order and address some of the unresolved tensions of European integration in that context.
1 October:
Ebrahim Afsah, Centre for European Constitutionalization and Security, Faculty of Law, University of Copenhagen:
"State-Building after Violent Conflicts: Problematic Preferences of European Normative Politics"
During the past twenty years, an ever larger number of violent conflicts have demanded political attention and led to an explosive rise in international pacification missions. Driven by both self-interest and normative convictions, the European Union and its member states have become major actors in these efforts. In this lecture we will look at how the relative success in managing the transition processes in Central and Eastern Europe contrasts with the failure in stabilizing non-European complex emergencies. Based on a decade of field experience, Prof. Afsah will offer a structural critique of European aspirations and policies in state-building, transitional administration, and crisis management.
8 October:
Stuart Ward, Institute for English, German and Romance Studies, Faculty of Humanities, University of Copenhagen:
"Learning to Live in Europe, as mere Europeans: The European provenance of Decolonization"
This lecture examines the origins of the idea of decolonization as a way of making sense of the global geopolitical transformations of the twentieth century. It argues that Europe, too, went through a profound "decolonization" experience, which was a far more comprehensive process than relinquishing colonies, prompting a thorough overhaul of some of the major assumptions that had shaped western European political cultures for more than a century. Indeed it is argued that the idea of "decolonization" itself was originally conceived by Europeans, as a response to the metropolitan consequences of imperial decline.
22 October:
Ian Manners, Centre for European Politics, Department of Political Science, University of Copenhagen:
The normative power approach to understanding the EU in a changing global order emphasises three aspects - the role of normative theory; the use of normative justification; and the characterisation of European communion. This lecture uses these three aspects to make sense of the EU's normative power in a changing global order by rethinking the nature of power and actorness in a globalising, multilateralising and multipolarising era. Based on two decades of analysis of the EU in global politics, the lecture will argue that rather than assuming the decline of the EU in the new multipolar order, much greater thought must be given to how the EU co-constitutes itself and changes global order in the 21st century.
5 November:
Morten Broberg, Faulty of Law, University of Copenhagen:
"The European Union, the Developing Countries, and a New Global Order"
Historically the European Union and its Member States have had close ties to developing countries; first of all in Sub-Saharan Africa. These ties have been influenced by the ruling world order. Thus, prior to 1989 the Cold War formed the frame within which the European Union could act. With the end of the Cold War the USA emerged as the sole superpower – and arguably this allowed the European Union to take on the role of human rights and democracy promoter. However, with the ascendance of first of all China the tide may be changing anew. These developments the present EURECO lecture will sketch out.
12 November:
Hans-Jörg Trenz, Centre for Modern European Studies, Faculty of Humanities, University of Copenhagen:
"Europe after the crisis: The making or the unmaking of a political union?"
In this lecture Trenz will explore how the Eurocrisis poses a challenge to the stability of an integrated European social, economic and political space. Instead of economic and social harmonization, the Eurocrisis has exposed the asymmetries of the European political space and the seemingly insurmountable differences that divide the peoples of Europe. Yet, the people of Europe, who are unequally affected by the Eurocrisis, are at the same time bound together by a constitutional framework of substantial social and political rights that apply indistinguishably across the European space. This raise the questions of how the Europe of rights and citizenship confronts the Europe of increasing inequalities? Does the formal equality underlying the EU regime of citizenship impact on the development of citizens' capacities to confront crisis across the existing socio-economic divides?
Final Honorary Lecture:
Mark Blyth, Professor of Political Science, Brown University
"Austerity: the History of a Dangerous Idea"
The current on-going global financial crisis invited a reading of its inception that was based upon 'runaway government spending' that had to be tempered with a firm diet of austerity. The problem was that 'runaway government spending' - at least in the form of government debt - was an effect rather than a cause of the crisis. The actual cause, both in the US and the EU, lay in banking systems that were 'too big to fail' and 'too big to bail' respectively. While the US was able to delever and recapitalize its banks, the EU has not been able to do so, which has resulted in a continent-wide game of 'extend and pretend' regarding the balance sheets of European banks paid for by slashing the public budgets of Southern European sovereigns. Meanwhile those states that have cut the most have in fact seen their debts increase the most. Why then is such a self-defeating policy still so eagerly pursued. The History of a Dangerous Idea offers us a clue.

Just to the south of modern Cairo stands the historic enclave known as Old Cairo, which grew up in and around the Roman fortress of Babylon, and which today hosts a unique collection of monuments that attest to the shared cultural heritage of ancient Egyptians, Christians, Jews, and Muslims. In this lavishly illustrated celebration of a very special place, renowned photographer Sherif Sonbol's remarkable images of the fortress, churches, synagogue, and mosque illuminate the living fabric of the ancient and medieval stones, while the text describes the history of Old Cairo from the time of the ancient Egyptians and the Romans to the founding of the first Muslim city of al-Fustat, focusing on the Jewish history of the area (exploring the famous Genizah documents found in the Ben Ezra Synagogue that tell so much about everyday life in medieval Egypt), the early Coptic Christian churches, some of the oldest in the world, and the arrival of the Muslims in the seventh century, their establishment of al-Fustat on the edge of Old Cairo, and the building of the oldest mosque in Africa.

Art and ArchitectureEdited by Markus Hattstein
Peter Delius
The rapid expansion of Islam in its early days encouraged a unique absorption and integration of disparate cultural forms and traditions. This book follows the historical development of the Islamic regions and their ruling dynasties, and illustrates their greatly varied forms of artistic expression from the birth of the religion to the present day. Basic architectural elements demonstrate, in their diverse modes of execution, the independence of regional building traditions. In the restrained yet inventive brick and tile ornamentation of Uzbekistan, just as in the bright, naturalistic arabesque of India or Iran, and in the ubiquitous geometrical ornamentation of Spain and the Maghreb, clear forms of expression are manifest, celebrating the riches and beauty of God's creation. This impulse also inspires the colorful and fantastical book illustrations and calligraphy, sumptuous tapestries, extravagant metalwork, ceramics, and jewelry produced by all Islamic cultures.

Architecture for the Poor
An Experiment in Rural EgyptHassan Fathy
In this now classic work, Hassan Fathy, Egypt's greatest twentieth-century architect, describes in detail his plan for building the village of New Gourna on the west bank of the Nile at Luxor, employing both the traditional building material, mud brick, and such traditional Egyptian architectural features as enclosed courtyards and domed and vaulted roofing. Fathy worked closely with the people to tailor his designs to their needs; he taught them how to work with the mud bricks, supervised the erection of the buildings, and encouraged the revival of ancient techniques, such as the use of claustra (mud-brick latticework) to adorn the buildings. Although bureaucratic red tape and other problems prevented the completion of New Gourna, Fathy's ideas have since commanded widespread attention both inside and outside Egypt, and Architecture for the Poor remains a testament to his vision as an architect of conscience. "Fathy demonstrates very powerfully that it is possible to build for the poor … cheaply and humanly by the use of earth for building and by teaching people to build for themselves. There is no other book quite like this." —Choice...read more

The Art of Resistance in PalestineWilliam Parry
This stunning book of photographs captures the graffiti and art that has transformed Israel's wall into a living canvas of resistance and solidarity. Featuring the work of artists including Banksy, Ron English, Blu, and others, as well as Palestinian artists and activists, these photographs express outrage, compassion, and touching humor. They illustrate the wall's toll on lives and livelihoods, showing the hardship it has brought to tens of thousands of people, preventing their access to work, education, and vital medical care. Mixed with the photographs are portraits and vignettes, offering an inspiring account of a people determined to uphold their dignity in the face of profound injustice....read more

Early Persian Painting
Kalila and Dimna Manuscripts of the Late 14th CenturyBernard O'Kane
Kalila wa Dimna (or The Fables of Bidpai) is one of the gems of world culture, having been translated through the centuries everywhere from China to Spain. The stories of Kalila wa Dimna, like the Fables of Aesop or Lafontaine, are subtle and suggestive moral tales—a kind of repository of wisdom and understanding about the human condition. It was the most commonly illustrated medieval Islamic text. This book focuses on the group of seven Persian manuscripts from the second half of the fourteenth century, which contain several of the finest masterpieces of Persian painting. It is a work of enormous erudition and scholarly importance, a huge contribution for art historians and students interested in Persian painting and early Islamic art. In a world now besotted with images, these superb early paintings can give us a glimpse of the power and delight that they must have given their original viewers, and help explain the work's attractiveness throughout the ages. "These pages will remain forever as a basic tool for all further work on this particular text and as a model for the study of illustrated manuscripts in general"—Oleg Grabar, Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton...read more

ASUS unveils 30th anniversary collection of its phone, laptop, and motherboard
For true ASUS fans out there
ASUS is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year and what better way to celebrate this milestone than unveiling special devices during Computex 2019. For true ASUS fans out there, get ready to be excited about a limited edition smartphone, laptop, and motherboard.
ZenFone 6 Edition 30
The newly announced ZenFone 6 is already getting a new variant: the ZenFone 6 Edition 30. It's essentially a ZenFone 6 with a few cosmetic changes to make it unique and a couple of internal upgrades to make the best ZenFone out there.
It features the now-iconic concentric-circle pattern we've seen with other premium ASUS devices in a special Matte Black color. To make the phone stand out, it has an embossed Edition 30 logo on its back.
Inside, the ZenFone 6 Edition 30 is the most powerful ZenFone to date with 12GB of memory and 512GB of storage. Of course, it's still powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 855 chip and has an innovative Flip Camera system with 48- and 16-megapixel sensors. There will be 3,000 units available and it'll come with a 30-month warranty.
ZenBook Edition 30
If ASUS' smartphone gets a special edition, their laptop must also have one. The ZenBook Edition 30 is based on the new ZenBook lineup featuring the ScreenPad 2.0.
On the outside, the ZenBook Edition 30 is truly special thanks to its classic look with a futuristic twist. The laptop's lid features a Pearl White genuine Italian leather that's hand-crafted and hand-stitched. Complementing the lid's white color is the Rose Gold diamond-cut edge and trim bar. To top everything off, this ZenBook has an 18-karat rose-gold-plated 30th-anniversary logo on the lid.
While the ZenBook Edition 30 has a luxurious exterior, it's also a top-of-the-line notebook with a NanoEdge display, latest 8th-gen Intel Core i7 processor, and NVIDIA GeForce MX250 discrete graphics.
Additionally, it comes exclusively with a set of premium accessories, including a Pearl White mouse, a leather-like mouse pad, and a genuine-leather sleeve.
Prime X299 Edition 30
For ASUS fans that are PC builders, the company also has the Prime X299 Edition 30 motherboard. The earliest product of ASUS is a motherboard, hence the Prime X299 Edition 30 honors the legacy of the company.
In celebration of ASUS's 30th anniversary, they're introducing the special edition ZenBook, Zenfone 6, and Prime X299. #WiserTogether #RepublicofGamers #Compitex2019 #GadgetMatchLive @gadgetmatch pic.twitter.com/FLKEfq4Ybn
— Kevin Bruce Francisco (@kevincofrancis) May 27, 2019
The special edition motherboard supports the latest Intel Core X-series desktop processors with a new flagship 16-stage power solution and enhanced cooling. It has two M.2 slots with passive heat sinks, dual Thunderbolt 3 ports, and a DisplayPort. Connectivity-wise, it has built-in 5G Aquantia Ethernet, Intel Gigabit LAN, and Wi-Fi 6 support.
The motherboard also features a 2-inch LiveDash OLED display to show system stats with support for custom text and images for a personalized build. Furthermore, there's a second LiveDash display in the new Smart Control Console which is an external module connected via USB.

One man's trash is another man's treasure: Dell embraces a circular economy
Sustainability is at the core of everything Dell does
As consumers our top considerations when buying a new device are specs, performance, value for money, and design. We rarely think about the impact we and the technology we use have on the environment. The only time we probably ever do is when we need to dispose an irreparable phone or a dinosaur laptop. When that moment comes, we also don't know exactly what to do or where to bring our old devices.
Fortunately there are companies like Dell that think ahead and consider the entire lifecycle of their products — from sourcing materials, to manufacturing, packaging, shipping, and recycling — and beyond. This approach is called a circular economy.
In a traditional, linear product cycle, recycling or refurbishing is thought of at the end of the product's life, if at all. In Dell's circular economy, the concept of waste is designed out of the system. This means sustainability is at the core of everything that they do. Here are some ways Dell is minimizing their footprint as a company while helping us consumers reduce ours as well:
Trade-in and recycling programs, not just for Dell products
Through Dell Reconnect, you can take that old computer sitting in your attic to a Goodwill store for recycling or refurbishing. The program also provides green jobs, and ensures that no environmentally sensitive materials are sent to landfills. The same program allows you to recycle or send back used ink cartridges responsibly as well.
If you're due for an upgrade, the company can also recycle your old laptop for you, no matter the brand. You may also trade in any eligible piece of electronics, including smartphones and consoles, to earn a gift card that you can use to buy yourself a shiny new Dell laptop.
Packaging made of bamboo, mushrooms, straws
To solve mountains of packaging problems we face after unboxing a new device — large fancy boxes, plastic, and foam — Dell has come up with the 3Cs packaging strategy, which stands for cube (size and shape), content (material choice), and curb (recyclability).
For Dell, wasted space inside any packaging is just that — wasted — so the company is continuously finding ways to minimize the amount of material needed to create packaging, as well as reduce box sizes so as to fit more products in storage and during shipping.
More importantly, Dell uses the best possible material to protect the product, and consider that which makes most sense for each region by using what's locally available. In 2009, Dell was the first to use packaging made from bamboo. Not only is it a renewable alternative to petroleum-derived foams, the bamboo they use also grows near their manufacturing facilities.
In 2011, Dell started developing cushion packaging made of mushroom, which has a smaller footprint compared to the usual protective foam, and is compostable. Recently, the company also started taking ocean-bound plastics like straws back to the economy where they can be reused to make the trays found inside Dell boxes.
The company reuses boxes up to 7 times before they are recycled. So when you buy a new laptop and the box is not in its most perfect form, that's not necessarily a bad thing. In certain markets, Dell also rewards customers for returning packaging that can be refurbished and reused.
Ink made of smog
Here's an unexpected way Dell is putting waste back into the economy and using locally available materials at the same time. Traditionally seen as a pollutant, the company is using ink made from smog in India to print some of its packaging.
A startup called Chakr Innovations developed the device called Chakr Shield which captures 90% of particulate matter emissions from diesel generators. The captured soot is then turned into carbon black, which is used to make ink. Dell is the first to use the ink on a larger scale and it works just as well as regular ink.
Backpack made of recycled windshields
Dell doesn't just make computers and printers, they also make a whole array of accessories, and some of them are made with sustainability in mind. The Dell Pro Backpack 15 is made with a more environment-friendly solution-dyeing process. It's also water-resistant, which is made possible by a layer of coating that's made from reclaimed windshields.
Jewelry made of used computers
In its effort to reduce waste dumped in landfills, Dell also reclaims gold from motherboards through its recycling programs, reuses them to make not only new motherboards, but jewelry as well. So that old laptop you're going to trade in for a new one? Parts of it will end up on someone's finger or ears at some point, not in a developing country that becomes a dumpsite for other companies and countries.
Vivian Tai, Head of Global Environmental Affairs for the APJ region says the company is integrating sustainability efforts not for Dell's benefit, but to provide better value for customers. She says sourcing and bringing what many consider "waste" back to life is challenging but is important to the company. Just this year, Dell already reached two of its 2020 goals: recover two billion pounds of used electronics and use 100 million pounds of recycled-content, plastic and other sustainable materials, one full year ahead of schedule.
Next time you need to buy a new laptop, take sustainability into consideration, too. Technology plays a big role in making our lives easier, and the good that it can do should not end at that but also extend beyond its usual lifecycle. It's not just big companies who benefit from minimizing our ecological footprint — it's also us, consumers, and the generations that come after us.
AMD launches Ryzen 9 3950X and Radeon RX 5700 series
With competitive pricing
Between all the video game announcements made during E3 2019, AMD took the stage to introduce new CPUs and GPUs to power all these new PC titles.
The most prominent is the Ryzen 9 3950X, AMD's newest 16-core, 32-thread 7nm desktop CPU. It has a base clock of 3.5GHz and boost clock of 4.7GHz. A generous 72MB cache complements the high-speed processing.
More interesting, however, is its 105W TDP, which is well below the industry standard for this many cores. Normally, we'd see a TDP of over 150W in same-class CPUs, even in AMD's own Threadripper lineup.
Meet the first 16-core, 32-thread mainstream desktop processor, the 3rd Gen @AMD Ryzen 9 3950X! Available September 2019 for $749! https://t.co/S3GUZE4v2L pic.twitter.com/CQhwB7AhiO
— AMD Ryzen (@AMDRyzen) June 10, 2019
Its US$ 749 retail price might seem a little steep at first, but compared to Intel's equivalent offerings, it's a fairly good deal. It'll arrive in September this year.
If you can't wait that long, AMD already has a bunch of Ryzen 3000-series CPUs available from Computex 2019. Here's a refresher of their prices:
Whether you're an esports aficionado, a streamer looking to build their presence, or you're waiting to enjoy the latest AAA titles announced at #E3, 3rd Gen @AMD Ryzen offers high-performance gaming leadership at every price point. #NextHorizonGaming https://t.co/SkLsFBeGN5 pic.twitter.com/aZJzvg9V2X
— AMD Ryzen (@AMDRyzen) June 10, 2019
On the graphics side, AMD announced two new cards: the Radeon RX 5700 XT and Radeon RX 5700. They'll feature the new RDNA architecture. If that sounds familiar, that's because it'll be part of Sony and Microsoft's next-generation consoles.
Like the Ryzen 9 mentioned earlier, these two graphics cards own an efficient yet powerful 7nm process. The XT model retails for US$ 449 while the non-XT variant goes for US$ 379.
The @AMD Radeon RX 5700 series will be available on July 7th, starting at $379 on https://t.co/RqPozv6iXc and from retailers worldwide. https://t.co/2N7RdAZ1sq pic.twitter.com/pgeeJSCPQX
— Radeon RX (@Radeon) June 10, 2019
Key specs include 40 compute units for the XT and 36 for the non-XT, up to 9.75 TFLOPs for the XT and 7.95 TFLOPs for the non-XT, plus 8GB for both models. Unfortunately, neither support ray tracing.
While these GPUs aren't mind-blowing by any measure, they do give NVIDIA a run for their money in the upper-midrange market. Both cards will ship beginning July 7.
ASUS Zen AiO 27 hands-on: A step up from before
Your next home PC?
Let's take a break from laptops and check out this desktop PC from ASUS. This is the Zen AiO 27 and it looks so much better than any of the previous all-in-ones we reviewed from the Taiwanese company.
Coming from the iMac-like Zen AiO Pro and Vivo AiO, the Zen AiO 27 is a welcoming sight. But, is it any good?
Let's find out in this hands-on.
This AiO has a gorgeous 27-inch UHD display
The bezels surrounding the screen are slim
It has an outward notch at the bottom for the webcam
There are four speakers located at the back
Quick-access ports are on the right side of the base
The remaining ports are all at the back
The front has two LED indicators and an SD card reader
The base even has a wireless charging pad
A full-size wireless keyboard comes in the box
There's also a bundled wireless optical mouse
The Zen AiO design upgrade we've been waiting for
ASUS' new Zen AiO 27 finally gets the design upgrade it deserves. It's not an iMac copy-cat anymore and it looks even better than Apple's desktop PC. ASUS certainly took a step forward in design; however, I've seen better-looking AiOs running Windows 10 like Dell's new Inspiron desktops.
Perhaps, the best asset of the Zen AiO 27 is its display. It's a 27-inch IPS LCD panel with a UHD resolution and multi-touch support. The display is Pantone Validated for color accuracy and it has ASUS' NanoEdge design for slimmer bezels all around.
Although, like on smartphones, slimmer bezels come at a cost. ASUS had to put an outward notch to house a webcam and, for some reason, they placed it at the bottom. When I tested the webcam, it was showing myself from an awkward angle. As a consolation, it's also equipped with an IR sensor for hands-free face login with Windows Hello.
The Zen AiO 27's stand lets users view the display from multiple angles. It can tilt and swivel, plus the height can be adjusted with one finger. There's no option for rotating the display, but that's okay.
Design-wise, the Zen AiO 27 is a thing of beauty. I do appreciate its brushed metal-effect finish of really dark blue (darker than navy blue) with gold trims and accents. The audio and visual department of the PC delivers top-notch quality as well.
Slim and powerful, but not enough for 4K
All of the power of the Zen AiO 27 comes from beneath. The components are all housed in the base of the PC, which is neat and practical. How so? There are two storage slots and memory is user upgradeable up to 32GB.
The specs of the model I have are impressive with an Intel Core i7-8700T processor, 16GB DDR4 memory, 512GB M.2 SSD, and 2TB HDD. It also has discrete graphics using NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 1050, which is kind of old but still very capable.
The base also has a Thunderbolt 3 port and features Bluetooth 5.0 and dual-band gigabit-class Wi-Fi. Needless to say, it runs Windows 10 Home out of the box.
I have no complaints with the general performance of the Zen AiO 27 thanks to its incredible specifications. I can easily multitask with multiple windows open and quickly render images from Photoshop. The configuration is also enough to ensure smooth video editing.
When it comes to gaming though, it doesn't hit the mark. While the GTX 1050 GPU is good for games like Fortnite or anything with similar graphics power requirements, it's not enough to push pixels in UHD.
This means you can't take full advantage of the crisp display of the Zen AiO 27. It's best to keep the game's resolution in Full HD to have at least 60fps in not-so-demanding titles. Too bad I can't enjoy Cities: Skylines in 4K.
I wasn't able to try it out, but the Zen AiO 27's can also act as an external monitor since it has an HDMI-in port. Any HDMI-connected source can use the UHD display as a second monitor.
Is this your GadgetMatch?
The ASUS Zen AiO 27 is indeed premium with an asking price of PhP 149,995 in the Philippines. It's available through ASUS Concept Stores nationwide.
Of course, if you are to build your own desktop PC, you could get more power with the same budget. You could even still use an ASUS monitor, keyboard, mouse, and components since the company also sells those.
What you won't get is the convenience of a plug-and-play, space-saving AiO. It's like bringing out a laptop and plugging in the charger. If only ASUS included a better wireless keyboard and mouse, it would have been a better package.

Brightlingsea is an amazing place in Essex where there is a huge amount of swinging happening as there are so many horny couples that love hooking up for hot sex.
Why would someone be intrested in someone esle that they have no idea what they look like? I mean as superficial as that might sound... We are all here for the same reason and well pictures really help in responses to your emails! I will be honest I do not even open emails with no pictures soooooooooooooo how about uplaoding pictures!!!
So they are the latest in Brightlingsea looking for swinging fun so they are very likely offering Swinger Sex in Brightlingsea. Many are looking for hot group sex and so are a couple that want to join in with sex parties or orgies and some couples want one more partner for their threesome and so you can easily find hot swinger sex in Brightlingsea. I never had a rude single and I have never been one so I can't really relate to the difficulties that some have experienced. All I can say that this is a lifestyle that is about pleasure, enjoyment and hedonistic followings. The only rules we are to follow is respect for each other and no means no. While I was a couple my lady would swing alone and even got pregnant from one of her male friends. I did not try to control her I was happy for all the pleasure she got when we were together and apart. There are then also cool swinger clubs and sex parties arranged by swingers so you can have all sorts of hot swinging fun in Brightlingsea. We like our single guy friends, and there is no better designed sex fun than what two guys can do for one girl. It's an individual choice thing.
Another great way to find swingers is on adult dating sites as lots of them love hooking up with swingers as they love group sex. It would seeem to us that there would not be a problem calling up a late night booty call, but there is and belive it or not. It is even difficult to get a single male on short notice these days. Does any one els have this problem? The sex map below shows local women to you in Brightlingsea that are looking for casual sex and so may well be interested in swinging:
Then there are also men in Brightlingsea that love sex and so may well join you in your threesome or group sex:
Girlfriend, you definitely shouldn't have any problems getting any kind of booty call day or night. Lots of swingers are looking for hot group sex and so may need a partner for their threesome. My husband and I have validated couples who have accepted our validations but have not validated us in both find this to be discourteous, being that a validation proves that we are a real couple. Some will want a FFM threesome as they love the idea of another woman but lots want a MMF threesome and so will want a man to join them as they want two men having sex with the woman at the same time. I guess that we live in a time now where you can't trust too many people to do what is right or expect that anymore. To close I have been a swinger for 20 years and single males were always apart of the lifestyle, and always will be. I even think that they were the ones that started it as a way to have sex with couples starting back in the time of Rome. To the people who are claiming that most single men are Neanderthalers; well, you must work on your search for single guys, if you are just soo bad that you are unable to find decent people - says more about you than it does about single guys, so please do not call me 🙂 And then there aw swinger sex parties and orgies where lots of couples or single women or men join in with hot group sex, some are at clubs and some are at swingers homes but they are all very hot. I like it in principle, but no matter what we do, it is just way too PAINFUL! Is a shame as I like vaginal DP, so am sure that the kinkyness of proper DP is mindblowing physically, and deliciously slutty mentally, but alas, not for me. xI want to swing but just dont know to get hubby to do it. I need some advice on how to go about asking him with sounding like I am not interested in him anymore lol.
Then another hot topic in swinging is wife swapping so lots of men like to see their wife fucked so if you want sex with another mans wife then you can do that. In my experience, roughly 70% have swallowed and 30% spit.The most interesting are the women who swallow and then her husband tells me that she never swallows...one even told me that she never gives head... Well! That was a nice comment from a single guy. I'll be sure to put him on the B list. Some unmarried couples also do this and so allow the girlfriend to be fucked by other men as some men just love to see their wife or girlfriend used by another man. Now, in contrast, when done with a lot of foreplay, is one of the best orgams women can have. Also DP is a fantasy many women have and not being able to fulfill.Does anyone else seek partners who are will to swap bareback, ie no condoms. We are clean and std tested, but just wondering if anyone else desires the feeling that only skin to skin can provide.
Swinger Sex in BrightlingseaBut for lifestylin, single guys could never make a lifestyle. But couples could. I like it in principle, but no matter what we do, it is just way too PAINFUL! Is a shame as I like vaginal DP, so am sure that the kinkyness of proper DP is mindblowing physically, and deliciously slutty mentally, but alas, not for me. x I want to swing but just dont know to get hubby to do it. I need some advice on how to go about asking him with sounding like I am not interested in him anymore lol.
There is single and can't keep one guy. These guys can be okay, but they don't have the skills to keep one, where the above category chooses not to have one. A big secret is that a lot of the guys who say they are in category one are actually in category 2.
Swingers looking for Sex
Yes we have had this same problem, we have always thought is was distance, but when we have lived in bigger towns we have had the same problems. My wife has had the same problem for the last year she has been getting to play while I am gone (no reason both of us should go with sex for a year). I believe but I think many of other member will agree with me sometimes when we go into different type of sex act, woman think different from man, and I believe that is true about anal sex, for my experience your female partner as to be really involved with you or she really likes it.
Swingers looking for SexHow many young couples, single females and males are out there it becomes evident when viewing the site that 80% of swingers are over 35 I was wondering how many young swingers are really out there?
Horny Sluts that will do Anything
I want to hear from everyone regarding clit and labia size. I'm very often disappointed when I meet a hot woman and start to play with her, only to realize her clit is. I am curious how many men are like me and like their wives to have sex with other men?I love for my wife to be a slut. I like to watch her with other guys but also have no problem with her doing this. My husband and I have validated couples who have accepted our validations but have not validated us in both find this to be discourteous, being that a validation proves that we are a real couple.I think that arguing or trying to make a point over the internet or through a blog or a thread is like Running in the Special Olympics.....Even if you make your point, and your right and you win, You are still retarded!!!!. Booty Calls are on a First Come First Serve basis. If you want some action and you are not local, then you should try better early planning. I don't know about the rest of you, but if I am tired and it is 3am, then the only thing getting me out of my bed is if my house is on fire!!!! I am just being honest. If you are horny and it is local, then that is a whole different type of alarm that can certainly be addressed, and promptly.
So this covers the swingers sex in Brightlingsea but if you want other locations in Essex then you can use our other pages to find more swinging sex near you.
My husband is an expert with anal sex. I didn't like it either because it hurt at first. Then he taught me how to relax my sphincter and now I can take just about anything in there. I love dp but can't always find the right guys to do it with. Some guys are just so homophobic they can't stand the idea of their cocks being even near other cocks, or brushing up against another one (which sometimes happens with dp). Come on guys - relax ! Perhaps I am too picky, I don't know but I like to feel as if I am being treated with a bit of respect! Looks to me that so many "so-called swingers" are just so desperate to secure whatever they happen to be looking for that, in their narrow mind, swinging is about just that and nothing else, in fact, I am really glad if I do not fit into their picture 🙂…

Pope Francis Says Fear 'Makes Us Crazy' in Response to Trump's Border Wall Proposal
In beginning his tour to Central America, Pope Francis criticized President Donald Trump's border wall on the basis that fear makes people crazy.
On Wednesday, while on the way to Panama, a reporter asked Francis about Trump's proposition to build a wall along the southern border of the United States and Mexico. In response to the question, Francis told reporters, including one from the Associated Press, "It is the fear that makes us crazy."
This isn't the first time the pope has rebuked Trump's campaign promise to build a wall. In February 2016, before Trump became the Republican nominee, Francis said someone who thinks about building walls and not bridges is "not Christian."
Trump responded with the claim that a leader, especially one who is a religious leader, had no right to question another man's faith or religion and said the pope has an "awfully big wall" at the Vatican.
Francis reiterated his stance against a border wall while speaking at his weekly general audience in February 2017, shortly after Trump took office. He didn't call Trump out by name but he referenced Trump's repeated claim that Mexico would pay for the border wall.
"A Christian can never say 'I'll make you pay for that.' Never!" Francis said, according to Reuters. "That is not a Christian gesture. An offense is overcome with forgiveness, by living in peace with everyone."
Francis again emphasized that Christians should "not raise walls but bridges" and shouldn't respond to evil with evil but instead opt to "overcome evil with good."
The pope also criticized Trump for his administration implementation of a policy of separating children from their parents after crossing the United States border illegally. He called the policy "contrary to our Catholic values" and "immoral," during an interview with Reuters. Francis acknowledged that it wasn't easy but said, "Populism is not the solution."
He blamed populists for "creating psychosis" on the issue of immigration and said, "Populism doesn't resolve things." Instead, he called for "acceptance," "study," and "prudence."
Francis was born in Argentina to Italian immigrants. He is the first Latin American pope. His trip to Central America is his first foreign trip of 2019, and while in Panama he will speak at World Youth Day, which is expected to draw about 150,000 people, according to Reuters. It's the first papal visit to Panama since 1983 and on Wednesday morning, Francis posted a request on Twitter for people to pray for "this very beautiful and important event on the path of the church."

The weather is warming up and the flies are on their way. But how do you protect your animals from the horrible effects of flystrike? The correct term for flystrike is 'Myiasis,' a fly will lay its eggs on the animal then they will hatch into maggots. (Blowflies, bluebottles and green bottles are the most dangerous.) They will feed on your animal and if not caught in time it can cause serious danger to your animal.
Are you hunting for a horse rug that is comfortable, allows freedom of movement, as well as getting protected from the sun? Read on!

I got this idea from a Pinterest post. The final product looks so beautiful that I just couldn't wait to make one for myself. This was somewhat a different experience from my other regular DIY projects as it doesn't involve making something from scratch, but turning an existing wood piece into another one. Nonetheless, I enjoyed it very much and the final product was very satisfying. The tutorial I used is linked below.
Description: Come spend some time with us and make a small (about sixteen inch tall) three legged stool. A perfect size to use as a foot stool or as a fire side stool. This class will teach a multitude of turning skills, from face plate and spindle turning to duplicating and assembly. Finishing options will also be discussed. The skills and knowledge learned can be used to make taller stools and may also be used for other turned furniture projects. Turning tools will be provided but you may bring your own.
Wall-mounted or placed on a table or countertop, this handsome display cabinet is the perfect way to share any collection while keeping it clean and protected at the same time. Featuring tempered glass doors and three shelves, the cabinet's design calls for all straight cuts and straightforward construction techniques (simple cut-outs give the effect of
Description: New to the shop environment? Not comfortable around machinery? Spend a day getting to know your way around with one of our experienced instructors. Students will learn the purpose and safe operations of the primary stationary tools such as the tablesaw, jointer, planer, bandsaw and drill press. This hands on class will give you a taste of how these tools take raw material and turn it into finished projects. To the beginner woodworker, this class will pave the way for participation in Woodworking Fundamentals 1.
Our staff of instructors possess a wide variety of skills and interests but an intense passion for the subject they are teaching is common to them all. Whether it is a woodcarving class with Will Neptune, a furniture making class with the school's director, Bob Van Dyke, or a class on inlay and bandings with Steve Latta, students are assured of thoroughly learning the skills in a relaxed hands-on atmosphere.
This rack can be built from old unused wood pallets you can find around the house. So it is also a great way to recycle those old pallets. You can also find a step by step tutorial at instructables.com for which I have included the source link below. This tutorial helps you to make a wood wine rack from the scratch. So what are waiting for? Just grab the items you need and start building a cool wooden rack for those nice wine bottles of yours.
Free next Tuesday evening? The Minneapolis store is offering a class on panel door construction August 1, from 5:00 to 9:00 pm. You'll learn everything you need to know about this fundamental cabinetmaker's skill to make standard and arched top raised panel doors. August 5 at the Denver store, Cindy Drozda will offer instruction in the techniques she uses to produce her signature style lidded containers (see "Yemaya," above). This is a great opportunity to learn from a master wood turner who has elevated the craft to the level of fine art. Students will work on their own projects and most will take home a completed container. Also on August 5, the Phoenix store is offering an advanced turning class. If you are an intermediate-level wood turner, this would be an excellent opportunity to sharpen your skills and learn techniques that go beyond the basics.
Description: The bandsaw is one of your most versatile power tools, and this class will show you how to safely get the most out of it. Mike will show you how to set up your bandsaw for consistent accuracy and teach you proper blade selection. Learn how to perform straight cuts, curves, and how to rough saw cabriole lets. You'll also learn the secrets of resawing: a technique that can save you money and add uniqueness to your projects
The best thing about this wine rack is that it is very easy to build. All you need is the basic understanding of woodworking and a few tools to get started. You can modify your wine rack any way you want or build in a design or color different from this one. The basic steps to build a wooden wine rack are the same for all variants. I have included here the video tutorial that I followed in order to build myself a pallet wide rack.
A small oak table is a very useful wooden item for every household. You can yourself make a nice, strong and beautiful oak table suitable for any purpose. See the image below. As you can see, it is a small, yet good enough table to be used as a coffee table, lamp stand, breakfast table, etc. You can also find many other design variants on the internet. Choose the one you want for yourself and start making it now.
Why would you buy a costly platform bed from Ikea or somewhere else when you can make one yourself at home? Oh yes, you can. A bed is the most common furniture piece used in the house and probably the costliest one. Wouldn't it be great if you could just make a bed of your own, without having to spend many bucks for buying one? So I am here sharing a great tutorial to help you to build a nice comfy platform bed that you can use anywhere in the house.
Description: Using the skew is a challenge for many turners. This class will demystify the skew and show you how to avoid the dreaded run back. Proper sharpening and cutting geometry will be demonstrated and students will learn several basic skew cuts - roughing, peeling, planing, bead and cove cuts with the skew. The student will complete the class by turning a small tool handle with just the skew.
I am sharing here a link to the detailed tutorial written by Pete at diypete.com, who shares the step by step process for making a wonderful barrel coffee table from scratch. He also tells you what items you'll need for this project and where to find them. For example, you can buy an old whiskey barrel online or from a local whiskey store for a few bucks, if you haven't already got one.
Description: In this workshop, period furniture maker Ray Journigan will explain what you will need to start adding carvings to you furniture. It all starts with the proper set up at the workbench. Ray explains the importance of good lighting. Watch Ray as he carves a scalloped shell to show the different body and hand Ray will also explain what is needed to keep those tools razor sharp. Face it, carving tools are expensive. Ray explains what makes a good carving chisel and which tools makes a good starter set. If you are new to the idea of carving, get all your questions answered here before you start buying those tools!
We have compiled a listing of select woodworking schools which offer woodworking classes in the United States, Canada, Europe and Asia-Pacific. We urge you to check-out local woodworking clubs, community college, and high school adult education programs first. They are often overlooked and offer some of the best courses to develop and build woodworking skills.
Cut the 6-1/2-in. x 3-in. lid from the leftover board, and slice the remaining piece into 1/4-in.-thick pieces for the sides and end of the box. Glue them around the plywood floor. Cut a rabbet on three sides of the lid so it fits snugly on the box and drill a 5/8-in. hole for a finger pull. Then just add a finish and you've got a beautiful, useful gift. If you don't have time to make a gift this year, consider offering to do something for the person. You could offer to sharpen their knives! Here's how.
What is the one thing every woodworker needs? Yes, a workbench. Now that you have or at least I am assuming you have worked on so many woodworking projects, you are close to becoming a professional woodworker. You now probably owe yourself a nice woodworking bench. You should also know that a true woodworker never buys his bench from the market, but always builds one himself. But before you start this project, you should know what a workbench is.
Some tools required for this project are hole saw, drilling machine, pencil, tape measure, clamps, etc. This tutorial explains every step properly with images so that anyone can make a wooden sofa sleeve easily. Those, who prefer a video tutorial, can visit the below link to a YouTube video that illustrates the process of building a DIY Sofa Sleeve Cupholder.
Description: New to woodworking or looking to refresh your skills? What to see how someone else would do it? We have different Fundamentals classes where instructors teach you the skills to safely and properly use equipment, tools and jigs. In all classes you will learn about taking rough wood into a finished piece using the planer, jointer, mitersaw and tablesaw. In this class you will make a small sliding bookshelf.
Description: The dovetail joint stands as the symbol of hand tool craftsmanship and for many is regarded as the most challenging test of their skills. Students will learn simple exercises that will give them great confidence with basic hand tools. Ray will provide personal attention and hands-on practice for everyone to learn the layout, sawing, chiseling and assembling of the joint. Both full and half blind dovetails will be covered.
Description: The bandsaw is one of your most versatile power tools, and this class will show you how to safely get the most out of it. Mike will show you how to set up your bandsaw for consistent accuracy and teach you proper blade selection. Learn how to perform straight cuts, curves, and how to rough saw cabriole lets. You'll also learn the secrets of resawing: a technique that can save you money and add uniqueness to your projects
Working on one side at a time, glue and nail the side to the back. Apply glue and drive three 1-5/8-in. nails into each shelf, attach the other side and nail those shelves into place to secure them. Clamps are helpful to hold the unit together while you're driving nails. Center the top piece, leaving a 2-in. overhang on both sides, and glue and nail it into place. Paint or stain the unit and then drill pilot holes into the top face of each side of the unit and screw in the hooks to hold your ironing board. Mount the shelf on drywall using screw-in wall anchors.

A super simple iPad Dock/stand made out of a single block of wood features an angled groove which gets to support the tablet device and a cut in a hole to revise access to the home button of your iPad. It's possible to drill an access channel in the stand through which you can run a charging cable, although this mini stripped back iPad stand may have very limited functions.

How to Choose a Stock Brokerage Firm
Keep reading
At the Motley Fool Singapore, we are glad when our readers take the time and effort to learn more about investing in the stock market and progress on their own investment journey.
Lately, we had a reader who sent in a question regarding the ideal place to start a brokerage account after reading through our "How-to Guides".
For starters, I will list out the commission charges for the more popular trading platforms and the stock holding platforms. This list is by no means exhaustive and regular updates need to be done from time to time to keep up with the ever-changing environment.
Note: Updated as of 18 March 2014
Other than the brokerage/commission rates listed above, there are additional charges applicable to almost all stock brokerages:
1. SGX Trading Fees (Contract Value x 0.0075%)
2. CDP Clearing Fees (Contract Value x 0.04%)
3. GST ((Brokerage + Trading Fees + Clearing Fees) x prevailing GST rate)
Pre-funded accounts
Pre-funded accounts are trading accounts by which you have to deposit your money into the account before-hand and any transactions would automatically be debited or credited back to the same account. This is different from the usual "T+3" settlement system where you only need to make all relevant payments for any executed trade 3 days after the trade was made.
Currently, only three stock brokerages offer lower rates with pre-funded accounts. To me, pre-funded accounts can present you with an opportunity to "kill two birds with one stone" since you can allocate a certain percentage of your salary into the pre-funded account to keep you on track for regular investments in addition to earning discounts on commission rates.
Other considerations
As you can see from the table above, the online fees are more or less comparable for the various stock brokerages, except for Standard Chartered which offers no minimum commissions. With stock market investing, small differences in brokerage fees can potentially sum up to huge cost savings especially if you're a new investor or someone who practices dollar cost averaging and can only buy in small lots each time.
Do note however that while Standard Chartered's rates seem more attractive, your stock holdings are held in custodian accounts with Standard Chartered, meaning that it is not backed by the Central Depository (CDP).
Meanwhile, here are also some other pointers you might consider in relation to choosing a brokerage account:
1. Loyalty Program – Lim and Tan Securities offers NTUC Linkpoints for every trade made and have an on-going promotion for existing clients who refers new customers to the firm. NTUC Fairprice vouchers anyone?
2. Trading Platform – Some established players like Kim Eng and Phillip Securities offer access to trading platforms with more bells-and-whistles such as multiple view of live prices, charting tools etc. Ease of use of the trading platform is also one factor you as an investor should consider.
Choosing a brokerage account is rather similar to picking stocks as you probably have to stick with them over the long run because the switching of accounts could lead to high switching-related charges and fees.
Nevertheless, if you've just started out investing, it is advisable to open several stock brokerage accounts and decide which would best fit your needs. It is important that you are comfortable trading in your preferred stock brokerage firm since the last thing you want is to dread investing due to the dislike of your trading platform.
