Conservatively, at least 3-6% of the adult U.S. population struggles with sexual addiction.
And millions more are at risk: one in three regular Internet users visits a sexually oriented site each month. If you or someone you love deals with secret sexual behavior, you're not alone! Even for Christians, sexual addiction has become the addiction of choice.
Sexual addiction is an umbrella term that describes a variety of compulsive behaviors. The type of acting out (viewing pornography, using prostitutes, having affairs, whatever) isn't as important as the pattern and reasons driving it. According to Patrick Carnes, Ph.D., an addiction is a pattern of unmanageable behavior that continues despite someone's efforts to stop.
"Sexual addiction" is actually not about sex at all. It's an intimacy disorder – using sexual activity or a relationship in a desperate search for connection, affirmation or love. Sex addiction is a coping mechanism – a way to medicate painful feelings, experiences and memories. While "sex addiction" is a misnomer, unfortunately, it's one that will probably stick.
Bethesda Workshops provides Christian treatment for sexual addiction recovery. We have an intensive workshop program for male and female sex addicts (or those heading that direction), partners of addicts (or ex-partners of addicts), and addict/partner couples. Our Resources section contains suggested books, 12 Step groups, organizations and links, and our section for Professionals has a wealth of clinical information. There is help and hope!

Giacomo Casanova was born on April 2, 1725 on the Calle della Commedia in Venice, Italy. His parents were actors; because they were so often on tour, he was raised almost exclusively by his grandmother (according to some sources, her dominating personality, and the role of a witch who used "magic" to cure sickly young Giacomo's chronic nosebleeds, led to complexes--in more adult years he engaged in crossdressing)
After his father dies in 1733, he is sent to study with one Dr. Gozzi(Casanova greatly admired him) in Padua. His stay there lasts four years, until 1738. His first steps towards his legendary reputation are taken here, the scene of a love affair between him and the Doctor's young sister Bettina (she was 13; he was 10). After completing his studies at Gozzi's, Casanova enrolls in the University of Padua to study law. He is tonsured on Feb. 14, 1740, and at the tender age of fifteen is already a fine guide of Eros's bow. In 1742, upon receiving his degree, he enters the Seminary of San Cipriano, intending to become a priest. This...ahem...doesn't work out; he is expelled for scandalous conduct that same year.
Upon returning to Venice, he is imprisoned for a few months. He is then appointed secretary to the Bishop of Martirano (Calabria, rural Italy). He does not like it because Calabria apparently doesn't have enough of a scene. Ater a few more legendary affairs (Donna Lucrezia notable among them) he enters the service of yet another clergyman, Cardinal Acquaviva of Spain. He is "involved" in orchestrating an elopement (in this case, he was completely innocent) and the resulting scandal forces the Cardinal to dismiss him.
Here, there is a rather interesting episode. In 1745, Casanova meets a castrato, named Bellino. He refuses to believe that Bellino is a man. Sure enough, he's right. Casanova unmasks Bellino (now named Teresa Lanti; her real name was Angiola Calori) and they fall in love and do the planning-to-marry bit. Unfortunately, Casanova is too concerned with social status to allow this to happen (acting was not a presitigious profession, especially for a woman), and they part ways.
After a bout of illness and a group of friends who insist on curing him with magic, he meets his most precious love: Henrietta. The affair lasts eight months, July 1749 - February 1750. The dark Frenchwoman is forced to leave him in February, and Casanova becomes the classical lover who has lost, comparing love to a monster and engaging in various depressed things.
He goes to Paris, then returns to Venice. There, he meets Caterina Capretta, has an affair with her (naturally) and asks her father for her hand(that is more surprising). The father says HA! and puts Capretta away into a convent. There, she meets a nun who is having an affair with the French ambassador. At this point, all four of them (Casanova, Capretta, M.M.(the nun), and the ambassador) all fuck each other until it comes time for the ambassador to return to France. Sound juicy yet? Get this: The Venetian secret police are on Casanova's trail, allagedly because of some "occult works." In actuality, they are afraid of him and his vast network of powerful contacts (acquired during his travels and occupations, and by his Freemasonry). On July 25, 1755 he is arrested and put into the "Leads," a group of cells directly under the roof of the Ducal Palace. Six months later, he manages to make a daring escape and flees Venice for Paris, where he is widely feted and becomes a celebrity. In Paris, he performs several secret missions for the government and meets the Marquise d'Urfe, whose secret ambition is to be reborn as a man. Impressing her with his knowledge of the occult, he hoodwinks her out of a million franks.
Here, he goes through a bad streak. From '59-'62, he is arrested and charged several times; at one point the Marquise intercedes for him. He keeps hoodwinking her; this comes to a culmination when he explais that he will use an associate to impregnate her, and she will die and be reborn in her son. Ther Marquise believes him until...she discovers she's not pregnant. With that cash cow dead, he travels around Europe. In London, a prostitute rips him off for a large sum of money (the humiliation!), and from here he dates his decline.
He tours Eastern Europe, in 1766 even becoming famous for a duel with a member of the Polish royal family (He wins.) Then, he ruins a chance at employment in Spain for himself, and falls ill in the South of France. There, he meets none other than Henriette's servant, through whom they exchange letters.
Throughout the 1770s, Casanova works on his writing. Much of his body of work dates from this period. He continues to travel everywhere in Europe, and at one point almost sails to Madagascar. Affairs everywhere, of course. In 1788 he accepts the offer of a librarian position in the castle Dux, in Czech territory. There he is tormented by the locals, and is tremendously unhappy and depressed. From 1790-1798, he writes his most famous work: The History of My Life(Histoire de ma vie), now considered a manual of seduction unparallelled in Western literature. He dies April 4, 1798 of a urinary tract infection.

Green Revolution
Before the green revolution the canal system laid by the British was the principle means of irrigation. Table 4 and Figure 3 below show that in 1950 canals provided 81 percent of all irrigation. At the time tubewells were insignificant. The green revolution introduced tubewells on a mass level into the landscape of the countryside. By 1992-93 one quarter of all irrigated land was irrigated with tubewells. The number of tubewells simply mushroomed from a few hundred in 1960, to 76,000 in 1968, and 156,00 in 1975.
Circumstantial evidence suggests that this deterioration is at least partly due to some chemical mechanism, probably affecting the formation/gravel filter interface. Systematic studies and rehabilitation trials are urgently required to establish effective remedial measures for existing wells and modifications of design for future wells.

Sometimes losing weight is not easy. This can be for a variety of reasons, but one reason in particular is that you can't figure out a system that works for you. Getting a system and rhythm in place is the best thing for your weight loss goals and here are a few tips that might help bicep workouts for women
One way to ease into an effective weight-loss diet is to cut your calorie intake in a series of gradual steps. Reducing your caloric intake by 500 calories daily might be advisable, depending upon the number of calories you currently consume in a day.
Make exercise a priority as you are dieting, but keep it fun. Many studies have found that exercise is essential for long term weight loss success, but sometimes individuals find it difficult to stay motivated when they try to work out. Workout to a video game, go for a walk with a friend or play outside with the children bicep workouts for women.
Eat lots of broccoli. The antioxidants found in broccoli makes it a healthy veggie. Broccoli is great because it can be eaten raw or steamed, and placed in a tasty salad. Your body is sure to appreciate it.
Avoid processed foods if you want to lose weight. This will you make better food selections. You will be less likely to load up on junk foods that are full of sugar, fat, and preservatives.
One tip that will keep you in shape is making sure that you eat breakfast. It shouldn't need to be said, but lost of folks think skipping calories is a way to lose weight. If you starve yourself at breakfast, you are more likely to overeat at lunch. You may be attempted to eat something you shouldn't by 11:00 A.M.
To eat better, you should avoid skipping meals. You might think that skipping meals makes you thinner but in fact, your body is going to store as much fat as possible in case there should be more skipped meals. Even if you are not hungry, make an effort to eat something small three times per day.
Weight loss may be thought of mathematically. 3,500 calories equal about one pound. Therefore, in order to shed one pound, it is necessary to burn 3500 calories over the amount eaten. A good rule of thumb is to burn 500 calories more than what you ate everyday. This allocation sets you up to safely and easily lose weight at the rate of one pound weekly.
Eat at home as often as possible. The portions that they serve at restaurants are way more than you should be consuming at each meal. Additionally, it's harder to choose healthy options in restaurants since the foods are likely higher in sugars, fat and salt than what you can make at home.
Use the following tips to build yourself an exercise routine you can follow every day. Stick to these tips, and expand them to the point that they are suitable for you and your life. Dedicate yourself to weight loss; as you fall into your routine, losing weight will seem easier bicep workouts for women.

* Use Mineral Foundation For DIY Dry Shampoo: It's no secret that I love mineral foundation (because I write about my life publicly perhaps? Fancy that!) But honestly, I really do and always have. After wearing it for so many years, I've found a ton of sneaky ways to use it, and lately have been loving Purely You Minerals because it's cheaper than the Sephora-found brands, but just as good in quality. Hair aside, I've been using darker shades of their mineral bronzer to create a makeshift BB cream. Just mix equal parts mineral foundation (in a shade darker than your usual) with your daily lotion and a squirt of Bactine spray [to prevent breakouts], and apply as a base before foundation itself. If we're talking follicles, I use a little bit of foundation minerals mixed with baby powder to create a DIY dry shampoo. It blends in better to my blonde highlights (or dark roots if using a darker shade) than simply white baby powder alone. Hate powder? Mix in a squirt bottle with a few tablespoons of rubbing alcohol and water for an equally efficient "no wash shampoo" option for oily strands. Impressed, yet?
* Use Socks To Curl Your Hair Without Heat: I never have anything on hand to make myself look even mildly attractive (hair curlers, a working blow dryer- you name it). So recently I realized that super clean socks make the easiest hair curlers around. Just roll, wrap hair around and pin. You can do this either after styling hair to give it more volume, or while it's still damp to create soft waves. Obviously the smaller the sock, the tighter the curl (yes, your kids socks might actually have some use since they always try to skip wearing them!) If you set your hair in the exact pattern of mine above, you'll get some masterful volume as it was inspired by the same pattern of curling for Victoria Secret models.Or, if you have more time, more money, and would opt for a more semi-permanent effect you can make use of human hair extensions. Cool, right?
* Use Braids And A Flat Iron To Get Speedy Fast Waves: I try to avoid putting a lot of heat on my hair to protect my strands, but this is a quick way to get waves without exposing them for long. Just put in a variety of braids when strands are damp (larger for lose waves, small for curly, and a variety for a super natural look), let it air dry, and then quickly "pat" a flat iron over each braid when you're ready to take it out. As you can see, I went with kind of a big, 80's crimpy look, but you can certainly style it differently. Either way, it was fast, it was easy, it was painless… and that's definitely my favorite way to get ready.
Still hankering for more Visual Vice Pinterest glamour gluttony? Pin it where it counts!

With forward Tyrus Thomas showing signs of leg fatigue, Charlotte Bobcats coach Paul Silas chose to sit him, with hopes he'll play Thursday in Atlanta - the first of three games in three nights for the Bobcats.
Thomas missed the first six games of the season with a sprained ankle. His return coincided with Corey Maggette's hamstring strain, so Silas inserted Thomas into the lineup at small forward and played him heavy minutes - an average of 29 per night.
Silas said Thomas wanted to play against the Houston Rockets, but Silas vetoed that idea.

National Museum of the American Indian Celebrates Four Landmark Anniversaries
This fall marks the 20th anniversary of the signing of the legislation that created the museum.
The Smithsonians National Museum of the American Indian
inaugurates a season-long celebration of four landmark anniversaries through special exhibitions, events and family programming from September through November 2009. This fall marks the 20th anniversary of the signing of the legislation that created the museum, the 15th anniversary of the George Gustav Heye Center in New York City, the 10th anniversary of the state-of-the-art collections facility in Suitland, Md., and the fifth anniversary of the opening of the flagship museum on the National Mall.
The museum complex stands as a symbol of Native history, vitality and contemporary relevance and has become a showcase for the beauty and genius of Native peoples. We have so much to celebrate, said Kevin Gover (Pawnee/Comanche), director of the museum. Since its creation, the National Museum of the American Indian has mounted scores of exhibitions and hosted more than a thousand Native American artists, dancers, leaders, musicians, poets, scholars and writers who have enlightened and inspired millions of visitors from around the world.
The museums celebrations will feature an Anniversary Gala at the Mall museum Oct. 7. CBS news correspondent Hattie Kauffman (Nez Perce) will emcee the reception, and singer Buffy Sainte-Marie (Cree) and Wes Studi (Cherokee) will be among those attending as special guests. Oct. 16 marks the opening of Brian Jungen: Strange Comfort, the museums first major contemporary art exhibition of a living artists work. This significant retrospective demonstrates the museums commitment to its contemporary arts initiative and includes a Meet the Artist program Oct. 16 in the Ring Auditorium at the Hirshhorn Museum.
Public programming highlights include the Rochester Institute of Technologys annual Big Shot photo event that will illuminate the Mall museum building with the help of more than 1,000 community members flashlights Sept. 26. La Mission starring Benjamin Bratt (Quechua), a film that explores the curative power of Aztec tradition, will be screened Oct. 9 at the Mall museum for a Dinner & a Movie program and will be followed by a moderated discussion with Bratt and his brother Peter, who is the films director. On Nov. 14, the eight-member Kevin Locke Native Dance Ensemble will engage audiences with a dramatic performance of traditional and contemporary American Indian dances. On Nov. 14 and 15, From Deer to Dance, a museum-wide Fall Family Weekend festival, will explore the Native process of turning hides or skins of animals into beautiful regalia worn during traditional ceremonies and powwows.

Hold up...
Kristin Buie pinned this. I died.
Not only is it removable(genius), it is cheap--I am talking $30. Perfect for an apartment or a starter home.
If you have any questions you can read this post with all the details.

Have you thought about painting with a stencil, too? Cheap and removable (just paint over). Young House Love painted their office with a stencil and it wound up looking like a tonal wallpaper, but obviously would turn out differently depending on the colors you pick. I'd link to it, but YHL blog is blocked at my work.

When You Leave by Monica Ropal
Review by Lauren
Source: copy from publisher; all opinions are my own
Official Summary: Cass has a theory: everyone eventually leaves. Her father walked out, her mother is starting a new family, and she almost lost her best friend to cancer.
When Cass transfers to a preppy new private school, her plan is to stay anonymous by hiding her skater girl veneer beneath plaid skirts and knee socks. But when her cute locker neighbor, Cooper, takes an interest in Cass, keeping a safe distance isn't easy. And once Cass lets her guard down, the unthinkable happens: Cooper is mysteriously murdered.
As the investigation unfolds, Cass's close friend, Gav, is suspected as the killer. Determined to find answers, she must go through her list one by one until somebody cracks. However, will uncovering the truth really give Cass what she is looking for?
Review: I loved that this book was so much more than just a murder mystery. You really got to know these various characters, especially Cass. She's a girl that loves to skate and has always had male friends, but she's never really dated anyone serious. At her new private school, she doesn't expect or even want to make new friends, until Cooper starts to take an interest. He's cute, popular, and not someone Cass would normally look twice at, but he's intent on them getting to know each other. He wants to look past labels and take Cass away from her idea that everyone at her new school are just a bunch of rich snobs. Their relationship isn't long, but it does start to change Cass...and suddenly, Cooper has been murdered and her friend Gav is the prime suspect.
This book casually includes diverse characters and I loved that. Gav is Russian and gay, another friend named Franklin is American Indian, and Cass's best friend Mattie is mute. He had cancer as a child and it left him without a voice. Cass can hear him though. She understands his looks and gestures and she hears his words in her head. It's just part of her life, and again, I thought that was excellent. Despite some rude comments from other people, most of these diverse character aspects aren't really focused on. It's more about the idea of Us vs. Them and how that's a terrible way to see the world.
As for the murder mystery aspect, Cass is desperate to find answers, not only because she cared about Cooper but because she cannot allow herself to believe that Gav would ever murder someone. She makes a list of possible suspects, and with the help of Brady - a guy at her new school- she starts to go through them, finding herself hitting roadblocks and threats along the way. More than one person tries to tell Cass to knock it off and that she could get herself hurt by digging too deep, but she's not sure if these are true threats or a way of protecting her, and as the book goes on, it's not clear to the reader either.
The ultimate criminal is someone I started to suspect more as the book went on, but without giving too much away, this is not a problem. I still found it a bit shocking and I wish I knew more about the motives behind things, though we are given an answer. I also wish I knew more about Gav and his life because he's in jail most of the book, still seen as a suspect, and you aren't able to truly get to know him beyond his various secrets being revealed throughout the book.
When You Leave is a really great book and it's one that I read entirely in one day, if that doesn't say something. I loved the characters, I had to know who the real culprit was, and I generally just couldn't wait for the end - in a good way.

Today, March 6, 2014, the European Union (EU) published a regulation imposing sanctions on several specific Ukrainian persons, including the former president of Ukraine, Viktor Yanukovych. In addition, today President Obama signed an executive order authorizing the imposition of U.S. sanctions in connection with the situation in Ukraine.
EU Sanctions
The EU regulation freezes the assets and economic resources of persons "identified as responsible for the misappropriation of Ukrainian State funds and persons responsible for human rights violations." The EU sanctions target 18 persons, listed in Annex 1 to the EU regulation. The targeted individuals include former President Viktor Yanukovych, as well as the former prime minister of Ukraine and several other former Ukrainian government officials. Close family members and certain Ukrainian businessmen are also among the targeted individuals.
The EU regulation provides that no funds or economic resources can be made available—directly or indirectly—to any of the targeted persons. The EU sanctions define "funds" and "economic resources" very broadly, essentially covering assets of any kind and any instruments relating to those assets.
The EU sanctions also provide for limited exceptions, under which economic resources can be released by the EU member states. For example, frozen funds may, in certain circumstances, be released to satisfy basic needs, pay for reasonable professional services or cover service charges for the holding of frozen funds. In some circumstances, frozen funds may also be released to fulfil arbitral awards or fulfil pre-existing contractual obligations.
U.S. Sanctions
President Obama signed a new executive order that allows for imposition of U.S. sanctions in connection with the situation in Ukraine. The summary issued by the US Department of the Treasury (Treasury) provides that the new executive order is
in direct response to threats to the peace, security, or stability of Ukraine, as well as efforts to assert governmental authority in the Crimean region without the authorization of the Government of Ukraine. This Executive Order allows the United States to sanction any individual or entity that is responsible for or complicit in actions or policies that undermine democratic processes or institutions in Ukraine or that threaten the peace, security, stability, sovereignty, or territorial integrity of Ukraine. It further allows the United States to sanction persons who are involved in the misappropriation of state assets of Ukraine or have asserted governmental authority over any part or region of Ukraine without the authorization of the Government of Ukraine.
As of this writing, no specific U.S. sanctions have been imposed. However, the executive order provides clear authority for the relevant U.S. government agency (Treasury) to identify specific individuals and entities for sanctions, including the blocking of assets and denial of U.S. visas. Treasury is expected soon to identify individuals and entities to be sanctioned, and reports indicate that sanctions may be targeted at Russian as well as Ukrainian persons.
McDermott's trade compliance lawyers are closely following these sanctions developments. With fast-changing events in Ukraine, the responsive actions by the EU and U.S. governments may likewise develop quickly. Businesses with interests in the region are well advised to monitor developments and to be prepared to comply, as applicable, to the legal requirements imposed by new trade sanctions.

Quoted in Salon
I was quoted in Salon.com yesterday in a short piece on the "macaca" question by Andrew Leonard. He makes some good points, and the comments on the article are also worthwhile (well, some of them).

I am glad the MSM took note of your thoughtful commentary.
I am also very pleased that of the four political candidates I contributed campaign cash to, two (Nick Lampson in Texas and Jim Webb in Virginia) won in high profile races. As a Democrat in Texas, this is the best return for my money in years. - 11:02 AM

Tar Spot
Tar spot is a fungal disease that doesn't require a fancy microscope for diagnosis. As you might guess, the disease is characterized by raised, black spots on leaves. Tar spot occurs primarily on silver maple.
Signs and Symptoms
Early infections appear as yellowish spots on the upper leaf surface. Later in the summer, black tar-like spots form and may be one-half inch in diameter. These black spots have a ridged appearance if examined closely. The undersides of the leaves appear cupped directly beneath the tar spots.
Disease Cycle
Tar spot is caused by the fungus Rhytisma acerinum. The tar-like spot is a fruiting structure of the fungus that survives the winter on fallen leaves. In the spring, mature spores of the fungus are released and blown by wind to newly emerging leaves.
Type of Sample Needed for Diagnosis and Confirmation
Collect 3 to 5 twigs with leaves attached. For further information go to Woody Plants Sample Collection.
Fortunately, tar spot does not cause serious harm to established trees. Some early leaf drop may occur. Raking and removing fallen leaves can help to destroy

Refuge: A True Story of Faith and Civil War
In 1989, the Gonleh's lived in Monrovia, Liberia. A war had broken out in their country and the family was forced to witness and experience death, disease, and terrible sights while attempting to flee the country. After almost 20 years, the family finally escaped to America, but not without heartache at the experiences they went through. You will be truly amazed at what this family was forced to deal with and the manner in which they experienced it. From taveling through the Liberian wilderness with their 6 children, looking for help, the death of children, and so much more. Such positivity and hope lay with the tragedy.

Thank you for the great review for this book. I look forward to reading it, as my husband and I have spent the better part of 2 years (2007 and 2008) in Liberia with the hospital ship, Africa Mercy. We have many friends in Liberia and most have lived through the devastating war, fled to the bush, or neighboring countries. You can read about some of this in our blog... http://mercywatch.blogspot.com. We are currently in Benin so you'll need to go to the archives from May 2007 through the end of 2008.
God's blessings,

Sounds like an inspirational story. I don't know anything about the war there, so it would be interesting to read. Thanks for the review.

RENO, Nev., May 30, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via PRWEB - Smart Fog Inc introduces non-wetting commercial humidifiers targeted specifically for high humidity control.
Mushroom growers need to maintain humidity and temperature throughout the growing process. Mushrooms are sensitive to wetting but require high humidity. Smart Fog commercial humidifiers enable growers to maintain high humidity without wetting the product.
"Smart Fog commercial humidifiers provide non-fluctuating and non-wetting humidity throughout the growing cycle. The entire targeted area will have a humidity differential of less than 1%," explains Ido Goldstein director at Smart Fog Inc.
Fresh mushrooms contain 90% water content. The mushroom surface is thin and has not barriers between the mushroom and the air and lose moisture very quickly. In order to maintain 90% water content the environmental humidity needs to be maintained at 95% relative humidity or higher.
The humidity is especially critical while harvesting the mushrooms. During harvest low temperature combined with high humidity is maintained to prevent weight loss and increase revenue.
"Smart Fog provides the same fog as in nature," says Goldstein. "The mushrooms get the true effect of a true fog in an artificial growing environment which enhances the total quality and health of the product."
Smart Fog commercial humidifiers also feature automatic disinfection and sanitation. The growing rooms can be sterilized before each growing cycle. This food safety feature also enhances the product quality.
Clean water is gradually becoming a scares resource. Smart Fog commercial humidifiers utilize the patented decorrelation technology to maximize every drop of water. Smart Fog system enforce every drop of water into the air and generate humidity without wetting any surface.

Kong Vong Thom
Sour Vanna is a multi-talented student at the University of Fine Arts, currently in his third year and able to play at least half a dozen instruments proficiently. Tonight he demonstrated the Kong Vong Thom at Meta House as part of their regular Wednesday night Khmix It! sessions, though he admitted that the Roneat Ek is the instrument in which he would like to go onto achieve master status. Vanna is 25 years old and hails from Kandal province. He's been playing the Kong Vong Thom for ten years and is following in the footsteps of his father who is also a performer and teacher of classical musical instruments. The large circle of gongs are usually heard at weddings or funerals and as part of a much-larger pinpeat orchestra. He used soft mallets to play the tuned instrument which had sixteen cymbal-like metal gongs arranged in a circle and is suspended on a rattan frame. The gongs were in order of size with the smallest, highest-pitched on his right hand-side, and the largest, lowest-pitched on the left with the others in order between. The gongs are made of a copper and bronze and contain a mixture of lead and beeswax inside. Vanna teaches young students at CCF and works with CLA in Phnom Penh and has high hopes of playing abroad once he completes his degree studies in 2009.

In my personal canon I like to think that a Time Lord can regenerate twelve times without any special intervention, ergo this is their "natural" life cycle. However, should he have said intervention, a guy could in theory regenerate many more times, perhaps even 507 as an upper limit. Davies is on record as saying he wrote that bit deliberately to screw with the hardcore fans (this was in fact his last writing for Who after all), but we're still stuck with it, in-joke, real joke (who would get that, anyway?) or actual fact. We do have proof that lives can be extended. In "The Five Doctors", the Master (who by that point had already had 1-3 incarnations after his supposed final "natural" incarnation, depending on how you look at it) was offered another regeneration and a completely new life cycle by the high council. He accepted this as though it weren't a big deal. I believe that even if Time Lord society may (or may not) have a societal taboo against regenerating longer than their physiology permits, under the right circumstances it's possible without that much to-do. It wouldn't be a permanent solution (thus why I think 507 might be that upper limit), which explains why Borusa was in search of true immortality, or as he describes it in that story, "endless, perpetual regeneration". In any case, we learn the Master was subsequently resurrected (again by the high council) to fight in the Time War, and granted a new life cycle anyway - we see that his regeneration was under intended circumstances, and the Doctor believed that the Simm incarnation could simply regenerate again to survive being shot. Arguably Rassilon himself is a product of the same process. Furthermore, the crispy and then extra-crispy Masters (some, including myself, treat them as different incarnations of the Master due to their different makeup, character portrayal, and actors playing them) were obsessed with finding a way to extend or renew their lives. It suggests to me that adding extra regenerations is certainly possible, at least if you have Gallifrey to return to and get special permission from the bosses. It may even be possible without them, but even an extraordinary intellect like the Master found it tough to do. I like to think that the Doctor is still effectively mortal - that he believes he'll wake up in his 13th incarnation and go "Well, that's it then... Blew my last chance at being ginger", and then simply carry on with his life. We know that it's a drag watching the show with him KNOWING he'll die at some point (see all of last season, or the almost two-year stretch the Tenth Doctor knew he was going to die since Ood Sigma told him so), so I hope that the producers by that point will choose to portray him as serene and knowing that through all these centuries, and indeed in this final kick at the can, that he did the best he could with the time the universe gave him. So, instead of going all Mastery and looking for ways to keep soldiering on regardless of the cost, he'd barely even reference it until his time came. Expecting to die, he'd bid farewell to his plucky companion, stumble into the TARDIS, and set it on a course for a black hole, or deep space, or wherever his body or the TARDIS would never be discovered. Finally collapsing, his body failing him for the last time, he would simply exhale his last and slowly, inevitably, close his eyes... ...And promptly regenerate. He'd stand up, in full ginger glory, and exclaim "Well, THAT's different..!". Cue credits, a new mystery, and a 14th Doctor never knowing if his next death would be his last. Mark
I think they should proceed as if 13 is his last regeneration. It would definitely be more interesting. That being said, I sure as hell would not want to be the one to pull the trigger and permanently kill the show just because the actor wants to leave. So I suspect they'll find a workaround because nothing is ever set in stone in Doctor Who.
I always just assumed that the council was basically BSing the Master. They may have promised him a new life cycle, but that doesn't mean they could have actually given him one. (And there's no real proof that the Master even believed them when they said that.)
It's not unreasonable IMO. My read on the Master's reaction was more of "Oh. YOU guys would do that for ME?", rather than "Oh. You guys can DO that?", as if it were something they could do with the resources of Gallifrey at hand, where the Master could not do so otherwise (despite years of trying). I interpret it to mean that it wasn't a big deal if you were on the high council's good side. And then like I said, they did exactly that later on. He was "resurrected" per dialogue, so between that and Rassilon's subsequent re-appearance despite being previously comfortable as a giant floating head I figured that while probably not easy or culturally cool to do, bringing back Time Lords and giving them new bodies with new sets of regenerations wasn't a problem. Hell, in TVM the Master was trying to grab the Doctor's remaining lives with the help of the Eye of Harmony, again implying that transferring regenerations is possible with the right tech. Ditto with the creepy pulsey brain aliens in "Mawdryn Undead". Then again, River gave up "all" of her remaining regenerations to unpoison the Doctor, and there were no Eyes in play aside from her own lovely pair... But I digress. Mark
Another thing that makes me not actually believe the council in that scene was that it was Borusa who delivered the line. Given what we would later learn about him, I'm not inclined to trust anything he said. As for the Master's reaction, I got kind of a "Yeah, right..." vibe from it.
We'll agree to disagree on that one, then. I see the Master as smart enough to accept it was possible to begin with. Another fan theory goes that now that all the other Time Lords are dead, the Doctor could potentially be the recipient of all that regeneration energy and thus could afford to wile it away on stuff like growing the handyclone or fixing River's hand. Of course, we'll likely never really know how regeneration actually works, though the extended universe of Doctor Who has a loooooot of factoids that may or may not contravene what we see on screen: http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/Regeneration Mark
The Master's story proves 12 is not a limitation. But you don't even need that. The Doctor took control of The Moment and became an all powerful god for one second and wiped out two mighty civilizations in the blink of an eye. You don't think that wouldn't have recharged his mana?
They won't kill off the cash cow. The limit will be quickly forgotten, retconned by the 507 comment or written around. Something, whatever, I'm good with it.
I don't mind if they retcon it, I just hope they mention it rather than just sweeping it under the carpet.
I am sure they will find a very entertaining way to get round this when the time comes........i personally would love to see the old timelords back and rewarding the Dr with some more regenerations for services rendered.
I just found it odd that Borusa promised the Master a whole new set of regenerations when he himself was searching for immortality. Well, one could argue that Borusa was searching for a method to immortalize his current incarnation, the one that obviously "fell to the dark side". I mean, when we first met him in "The Deadly Assassin", he was a bleedin' ponce. When we saw him again in "The Invasion of Time", he was a world weary sage. He was actually likable, at least, one felt he deserved respect. But the exchange between Davison's Doctor and his (for far) latest incarnation suggested Borusa wanted that specific body and personality to live forever. I still feel that Borusa gave the Master a "snow job" about a new cycle of regenerations. If it was that easy, why did the Master need to concoct such an elaborate plan to access the Eye of Harmony when he looked like a deep fried druid? I read that "offer" scene as something like, "Your offer of a new cycle is such a bold faced lie, but I'll play along to discover your true objective. Whatever you're wanting, I suspect I'll want more." Sincerely, Bill
I think they should keep the limit on regeneration, and do an episode where the doctor actualy dies, but then the timelords (who return before then) grant him an extra 13 incarnations like they did with the master in the timewar as their version of a medal of valour. Then that's the problem solved until doctor number 26 decides to leave..............
Problem with that is, that the Doctor wouldn't be in good graces at all with the Time Lords right now, considering he destroyed/time locked them twice I think the best route to follow is to simply have the atmosphere of believing he will die (Maybe even plant a phony rumor of cancellation to give it credibility and a surprise), and then have him regenerate and be shocked by it, and then explain it. Hiring A new actor for the Doctor, is an impossible secret to keep, but, it would be really, really cool, if they could make us believe it really will be the end, and then have him regenerate and the Showrunner could go "Pysche"
The universe went through a second Big Bang. Any rules that existed in the previous universe can be ignored as the writer's desire it, no other explanations required.
I'm sure this has been brought up before, but this thread brought it back up for me. Hypothetically, if the Timelords are still restricted to twelve regenerations, did the Doctor use one regeneration up when he inadvertantly created the Meta-Crisis Doctor in "Journey's End"? Could the Twelfth Doctor actually be the Thirteenth? Where does the Valeyard fit into this?
Well, the Time Lords are opportunistic bastards who aren't above anything that has the end result of accomplishing their goals. All one has to do is think up a convoluted reason for how granting the Doctor a new set of regenerations is in the Time Lords' best interests and that takes care of that.
True, They could give him a new cycle for sacrificing one as the new Matrix Core (Of course, without telling him that's their goal) or some other equally devious machination
Or there's been a rebellion and that crazy ******* Rassilon and his cronies have been removed. But rather than making the Doctor their darling, they're now led by a somewhat reformed Master. So, our hero is allowed to continue doing what he does and is sometimes even supported from a distance, but is kind of persona non grata on Gallifrey. Just like old times.
Well wow, quite a nice response to my question... ty all! I had to skim the newer stuff as I'm not done w/Matt Smith yet, so I can't get into the details of what the technobabble explaining his extra regenerations might be quite yet. But overall I think that the 12-regeneration limit at least needs to be name-checked and explained away... IIRC the Master was brought back by the Timelords as a soldier in the last Time War, so I'd accept as given that there are ways to extend it but 12 is the basic parameter. I do like the idea of him expecting not to regenerate and being surprised when he does -- and problems with it because of going past the 13-life "limit" could be a good arc for the season.

Talk Soup
In honor of the bitter cold weather and many snow days we have had the last couple of weeks, my friend decided to embrace Winter and have a soup luncheon today.Everyone is coming out of hibernation today to gossip, catch up, and sample 5 different types of soup. I think this is a perfect idea for the dead of Winter!!

Ten Things Women Do To Turn Us Off
First, a disclaimer: When women try to attract us, we are grateful. Almost everything women to do make themselves desirable is awesome and deserves tons of positive reinforcement. To almost every woman out there: By all means do not stop doing whatever it is you're doing. It's hot.But there's an exception to every rule, or, in this case, 10 exceptions. Hey, we're guilty of it, too. Guys do all kinds of weird sh*t that we think women love. (Wolf-whistling comes to mind. Sorry, ladies?)
In the name of keeping it fair and square, here are our 10 least favorite things women do that they think we love.

A few months ago, my father-in-law bought his first hand gun. He already has a rifle range in his back yard (14 acres between a swamp and several farms in the middle of nowhere). But now that he also has a handgun, and he knows that I enjoy shooting (when I can find ammo), he wants to put in a small range using the same dirt backstop as the rifle range.
Anyone have any suggestions on things to include? We are going to build a table at a slight angle, and I think I might pile up a bit more dirt on top, because right now we are shooting at a slight down angle.
Other than that, how far should we put the table from where the targets would be? I was thinking of putting some markers for different distances, so we know how far to move back. I have already been told that my wife and I will inherit this land and the house someday, so I am more than willing to spend a bit of time and money on this project.
Any other suggestions?

I'm in favor of gun control -- I think every citizen should have control of a gun.

you will want to shoot at different distances so make the table light enough to move easily. Markers are a good idea. Targets of course and some steel targets.. Check out Hickock 45's range on you tube, you might get some good ideas from him.
Let your plans be dark and impenetrable as night, and when you move, fall like a thunder bolt...... Sun Tzu.
The supreme art of war is to defeat the enemy without fighting........ Sun Tzu.
I'd put a table at 25 yards for standard distance. If you've got the money, order a load of screenings and spread them in a fairly wide path (not the whole load) between 25' bench and nearly up to the targets. Finding your brass will be a bunch easier. Spread screening to the right and rear of the bench as well. If you don't reload, betcha that someone that you know does and would love to have the brass. Besides, are we not heathens....er, no. I mean, let us not be heathens and leave our brass piling up like so many drunken rednecks in the summer sun. Or something like that. Send the brass to me, postage paid.
Thank you very much.

What if the Hokey Pokey IS what it's all about?
I've got a fifty yard range on my place, shooting at a nice size berm, backed up by 8 acres of thick trees that belong to me. I've got my table at the 50, as that's where I do the initial sighting in of my rifles. Got a couple of target stands made with PVC and wood, a couple of steel spinners, and a rail for setting bowling pins on when I'm in the mood. I have access to a 600 yard range, when I need it.
I've got some range markers on the ground, and use our golf cart to run all the stuff out for a range session, as well as to act as our mobile table, from the target back to 50.
Beats the hell out of any public or municipal range I'll say.
" But if you are authorized to carry a weapon, and you walk outside without it, just take a deep breath, and say this to yourself... Baa." Col. Dave Grossman on Sheep and Sheepdogs.
You might consider building a short wall from square railroad ties and then piling dirt behind that. You can easily hng targets on the wall and you know you have a very safe backdrop to shoot against. Also RR ties are very cheap, couple bucks apiece and you have to sign a waiver saying you wont burn them.

Your points are shallow... my points are Hollow....
Down slope is good.
I also built a range on our place by digging into a hill for the backstop and gravelling in a 30x30 meter area for handgun use. My range also slopes downhill as I shoot from hill to hill across a dip. I also use the same backstop for handguns, and rifles from 100-400 yards. Recently I put in an additional small berm for shots out to 500.
In addition to the berm and bench, Id take a look at what you want for targets. I use primarily commercial made targets in AR 500 steel. With steel you usually get what you pay for, go for armor plate. Once your steel gets dented/cratered, it's no longer safe for the close in work, as you'll get splash back. Besides 2/3rds IDPA silhouettes I have an IDPA swinger, a knockdown, and a set of Bowling pins in AR500 that we shoot with handguns and rifles at distance. Ive also got 6 steel stands to hold IDPA silhouettes on 1x2 firing strips.

Thanks for the great suggestions. Bigmacque, that might be a heck of a drive from FL to MI....
I think I might talk to the FIL about renting a bobcat to bowl the sand bank a bit more. That way we can do all sorts of drills. I know he often rents one to regrade the driveway and put down more gravel in the spring, so it would be a perfect win/win.
I love the idea of the screen. We both want to keep it somewhat natural looking, so the screen idea will still allow the natural field grasses to grow up and I will be able to collect the brass or MY reloads. I need something to shoot...
The target suggestion is very much appreciated. I think I might also pick up two of these to have races too...

"Regrettably, I must retire in order to find a digestive."
Dodge was a champion statistic that granted a champion a percentage chance to completely ignore an autoattack from an aggressor. Dodge was gradually removed from the game as a global champion statistic from patches V184.108.40.206 through V126.96.36.199.
The dodge formula was a multiplicatively cumulative formula. By default, each champion has a dodge modifier of 100, meaning they will be hit by every physical attack directed at them. Sources that modify the dodge stat are multiplied in sequence, reducing the previous dodge modifier by the given percentage.
This means that each increase in the dodge chance has less of an impact on the total dodge modifier. If a champion wears an item that increases dodge chance by 10%, their dodge modifier will be 90% of 100, or 90 (10% of physical attacks are dodged). If the champion buys a second such item, their dodge modifier will be 90% of 90, or 81 (19% of attacks are dodged), not 80% of 100.
In short the formula is:
where the variables a, b, c, and n are the dodge % values and are converted to their respective decimal values.
In calculating the dodge modifier, dodge chance from all runes are added together and treated as one source, with every mastery, champion ability, and individual items added as additional sources after that.

A few weeks ago I wrote about three of my favorite international bands (in my case, outside of America). I focused on Sigur Rós from Iceland, Xavier Rudd from Australia and Phoenix from France. This week, I've got some songs perfect for rainy days—quiet, soft & uplifting.
Kings of Convenience, "I'd Rather Dance With You"Perfect for a rainy day, don't you think? This band always makes the cut on my winter-themed playlists.
Youth Group, "Forever Young"No joke: I listened to this one song on repeat during my 14-hour flight from Sydney to Honolulu. Of course, I think I was asleep most of that flight (there was no time for sleep while I was in Australia—only beer, sun & fun). I think this song got a little cliche once it made the cut onto the TV series The O.C., but whatever, I still like it.
Jose González, "Heartbeats"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-qJu20do0o
If this song doesn't make you melt, then you've got a problem. Plus, it's paired with one of my all-time favorite TV commercials. The images & the sounds just work perfectly together.

early growth response somatic gonad TBX-2 T-box pharynx C. elegans |
Abstract: | Mammalian EGR-family genes and T-box family genes are broadly expressed and mutants result in a variety of defects and diseases (O'Donovan et al., 1999). To aid in our understanding of how these transcription factor families regulate gene expression we analyzed the function of C. elegans egrh-1 and tbx-2 in the somatic gonad and pharynx respectively. We found that the C. elegans Early Growth Response factor family member egrh-1 inhibits oocyte maturation and ovulation until sperm are available. C. elegans is an important system for addressing the fundamental events of oocyte meiotic maturation, ovulation and fertilization, complementing studies in vertebrate systems (Hubbard and Greenstein, 2000). In C. elegans oocyte production, maturation and ovulation must be coordinated with sperm availability for successful fertilization. egrh-1 mutants exhibit ectopic oocyte differentiation in the distal gonadal arm and accumulate abnormal and degraded oocytes proximally. These defects result in reduced brood size and partially penetrant embryonic lethality. Results of tissue-specific egrh-1(RNAi) experiments and genetic mosaic analyses revealed EGRH-1 function is necessary in the soma, and surprisingly this function is required in both the gut and the somatic gonad. Through transformation rescue experiments we show EGRH-1 in the somatic gonad inhibits oocyte maturation, ovulation and sperm recruitment. The T-box family member TBX-2 is the sole C. elegans member of the conserved Tbx2 sub-family. It has been previously shown that C. elegans TBX-2 is required for the development of ABa-derived pharyngeal muscles; however it is not known how TBX-2 specifically regulates the development of these cells. We are interested in identifying TBX-2 targets that function in pharyngeal muscle development, and in determining if TBX-2 is a transcriptional activator or repressor. To identify targets of TBX-2, we have compared mRNA expression levels in wild-type and tbx-2(bx59) mutant embryos using Affymetrix microarrays. Of 19,885 probe sets examined, we found 980 mRNAs that were significantly up-regulated in tbx-2(bx59) relative to wild-type and 175 mRNAs that were significantly down-regulated. Using clustering analysis, comparisons to existing data sets on pharyngeal gene expression, and phylogenetic foot-printing to identify promoters with consensus T-box factor binding sites, we have analyzed a subset of genes and identified D2096.6 as a direct target of TBX-2. Our data indicate that D2096.6 is directly repressed by TBX-2 at a variant T-box binding site in the D2096.6 promoter. |
