Gratuitous Insults

clipper's remarks: Any ideas on how we can help such folk?

I have been asking a series of questions about self-sabotaging behaviors. The vast majority of the replies have been constructive and incredibly helpful. But there is one type of reply that is truly self-sabotaging and gives me pause – it involves a gratuitous insult of some kind. When I try to point out that the insult is counter to their interests the person tends to respond with more insults. In a recent exchange, when I asked for clarification of a response I received “If you don’t understand what I mean, then that is probably your problem.” When I pointed out that I found his reply mildly insulting I received “you think you know me enough to think that I am insulting you, which I am not” – as if to say “you don’t get to decide when you feel insulted, I do”.

research indicates that most of these people are white, males in their late thirties to early fifties and consultants in either a one man or small operations

Gait may be associated with orgasmic ability

clipper's remarks: There are several plausible explanations for the results shown by this study. One possibility is that a woman's anatomical features may predispose her to greater or lesser tendency to experience vaginal orgasm. According to Brody, "Blocked pelvic muscles, which might be associated with psychosexual impairments, could both impair vaginal orgasmic response and gait." In addition, vaginally orgasmic women may feel more confident about their sexuality, which might be reflected in their gait. "Such confidence might also be related to the relationship(s) that a woman has had, given the finding that specifically penile-vaginal orgasm is associated with indices of better relationship quality," the authors state. Research has linked vaginal orgasm to better mental health.

The study provides some support for assumptions of a link between muscle blocks and sexual function, according to the authors. They conclude that it may lend credibility to the idea of incorporating training in movement, br

A new study found that trained sexologists could infer a woman's history of vaginal orgasm by observing the way she walks. The study is published in the September 2008 issue of The Journal of Sexual Medicine

Subjects completed a questionnaire on their sexual behavior and were then videotaped from a distance while walking in a public place. The videotapes were rated by two professors of sexology and two research assistants trained in the functional-sexological approach to sexology, who were not aware of the women's orgasmic history

The results showed that the appropriately trained sexologists were able to correctly infer vaginal orgasm through watching the way the women walked over 80 percent of the time

Further analysis revealed that the sum of stride length and vertebral rotation was greater for the vaginally orgasmic women. "This could reflect the free, unblocked energetic flow from the legs through the pelvis to the spine," the authors note.

Genetic 'telepathy'? A bizarre new property of DNA

Tue, 29 Jan 2008 11:47:42 GMT

clipper's remarks: life stranger than sci fi

Clip Source: physorg.com

Scientists are reporting evidence that intact, double-stranded DNA has the “amazing” ability to recognize similarities in other DNA strands from a distance. And then like friends with similar interests, the bits of genetic material hangout or congregate together. The recognition — of similar sequences in DNA’s chemical subunits — occurs in a way once regarded as impossible, the researchers suggest in a study scheduled for the Jan. 31 issue of ACS’ Journal of Physical Chemistry B.

This recognition may help increase the accuracy and efficiency of the homologous recombination of genes — a process responsible for DNA repair, evolution, and genetic diversity. The new findings thus may shed light on ways to avoid recombination errors, which underpin cancer, aging, and other health problems.

“Amazingly, the forces responsible for the sequence recognition can reach across more than one nanometer of water separating the surfaces of the nearest neighbor DNA,” said the authors.

Mexican regional varieties of tamales

All these, in addition to Maya herbs and spices more often associated with the Yucatán, flavor Tabasco's tamales, which are usually filled with pork, pejelagarto (large freshwater gar), chicken or even iguana), Veracruz (most famous for its fantastically large zacahuil tamale, which can be made up to 12 feet long for festive occasions and contain whole chickens, fish, turkeys, roasts or game, along with chiles, garlic and tomatoes, all wrapped in banana leaves and slow-roasted in a mud-brick and earth pit), and Yucatán (pork and chicken fillings marinated in achiote (with orange and lemon juices) are wrapped with tomato, peppers, onion and toasted garlic in banana leaves, and cooked in a

There's virtually no end to what you might encounter in a tamal, but here are some of the most distinctive regional variations:

Sinaloa

Seafood is wrapped into tamales all along Mexico's Pacific coast.

Nayarit

South of Sinaloa, in the state of Nayarit, shrimp tamales may be filled with fresh or dried shrimp, often accompanied by roasted tomatillos, onions, garlic, chiles, cilantro and pineapples; ground chilacate or guajillo peppers and shrimp powder is traditionally added to the dough.

Michoacán

Instead of being wrapped around fillings, the masa itself is made with the traditional doblecrema (a creamy, salty cheese), and roasted poblano pepper strips; a variety of other ingredients may be mixed in. Most of the spice comes from the simple green sauce of tomatillos and hot chile peron.

Oaxaca

a complex sauce based on poblano (or even better, the local chilhuacle) peppers and superior Oaxacan chocolate, flavors large tamales wrapped in banana leaves and typically filled with chicken and onion
