All change in the kitchen
At the end of July 2019, the kitchen of Church House Westminster was closed for a 5-week refurbishment. Extensive works included replacing old equipment, much of which used gas, with brand new appliances that use green electric energy. New oven ranges, bratt pans, boiling pans, hot cupboards, water boilers, steam/combi ovens, salamanders, fryers, induction cookers, fridges and dishwashers were all replaced.
Following the refurbishment, Catering Manager, Magdalena Kujda, commented: "The new green energy equipment along with the renovation of the kitchen areas provide us with an extensive opportunity to be even more creative when delivering menus for large conferences and dinners. Access to working areas has been greatly improved, allowing our chefs to utilise the clever use of energy-efficient equipment. Food wastage will be further reduced, all of which add to our sustainability strategy to reduce the carbon footprint of the venue".
In further news relating to the kitchen and catering operations at Church House, Head Chef, Joseph Lovell has decided to explore a personal business venture. Lovell, who has overseen the kitchen at Church House for a year and a half, joined after a stint as Chef de Partie in various Michelin-starred restaurants in London, followed by 4 years with CH&CO.
Lovell's successor at Church House Westminster is Nick Seckington, who joins the Westminster venue from The Law Society, where he is currently Executive Chef. Seckington has a 9-year working background with CH&CO as Head Chef within various London-based venues. He is due to commence his new role at Church House Westminster on 7 October.
Commenting on the new appointment, Robin Parker, General Manager at Church House Westminster, said: "Event organisers who have used us will know that Church House offers a convenient one-stop-shop for events, where event planning is uncomplicated, using our in-house caterers as well as our in-house audio-visual technicians. The recent investment in the new kitchens is a testament to our commitment to our catering services and our passion for delivering outstanding food. We thank Joseph for all his hard work and inventive menus. We look forward to welcoming Nick to Church House who I am sure will continue to elevate our catering standards.".

Next up we've got little Luke's Baby Photography Preston. Luke's mum booked me for a home sitter session as she hadn't had chance to have a newborn session when he was small. I went to Luke's grandparents house and set up the home studio in the living room ready for this little cuties session.
I offer home newborn & baby sessions anywhere in the Lancashire and Manchester area or the option of coming to the studio in Accrington where there's lots more backdrops and posing aids to choose from, most people choose to come to the studio but for some people the convenience of a home session is great and can help settle little ones.
Sitter sessions usually take place around 5-9 months old when baby is sitting but not yet crawling. The reason for this is that when they can sit unaided but aren't able to crawl away, they usually keep still! As cute as it is when baby starts crawling, they can be extremely challenging to capture as they just want to crawl toward the camera. Having said this, i do offer sessions for babies who are crawling and we tend to sit them in buckets and baskets to slow them down a little!
On the day of his baby photography session Luke was feeling a little shy so took some coaxing from mum to sit on the bean bag on his own. I often wonder what babies think as the situation must feel a little strange for them. Usually after ten minutes of my silly voices they've realised this could be fun and we get some lovely smiles.
I managed to capture Luke around the home and also some more studio style shots on the backdrop which made his gorgeous blue eyes sparkle! I loved meeting this lovely family. For more information on sitter sessions check out the session information pages and gallery.

Popeye Would Love This Dish!
Notes: I used a 20 oz. package of seasoned Italian ground turkey and added an additional egg to the mixture. A thawed 10 oz, box of frozen chopped spinach is just the right amount. I also used 3 cloves of crushed garlic.

Everyone wants to get a good deal on a used vehicle, but is the initial purchase price all that really matters to you when making a purchase? Unlike many other consumer goods a vehicle may appear perfectly normal while having significant hidden issues that may require you to spend thousands on out of pocket repair. Some used vehicle defects and problems may not be obvious to the naked eye, and may even go undetected when inspected by a mechanic. The fact is that without looking into the vehicles history you will never know what you are buying. Every VINCheckUp Vehicle History Report contains information that can help you determine if this 1995 Dodge Stratus is worth spending your hard earned money buying.


'Vintage 1' is the first in what I plan to be a series of prints based on gnarly old grape vines.
'Halo' is not deliberately exaggerated, it just shows the dramatic effect of foreshortening that you get when you sit very close to your subject.
'Contre Jour' was done just before the GOMA Matisse exhibition, and 'Odalisque' and 'Odalisque 2' just after. Matisse influenced me into trying a less literal approach to white on black line carving.
'Apsaras Dreaming' combines a simple white on black figure with some motifs derived from the bas-relief friezes of Cambodian temples.


We never know the love a parent until we become parents.
Don't you ever grow, stay this simple.
Sometimes the smallest thing takes to the most room in our heart.
Read me a story, Tuck me in tight, Tell me you love me and Kiss me Goodnight.

Lipit-Ishtar (Akkadian: Lipit-Ištar; fl. c. 1870 BC – c. 1860 BC by the short chronology of the ancient near east) was the 5th king of the First Dynasty of Isin, according to the Sumerian King List (SKL). Also according to the SKL: he was the successor of Išme-Dagān. Ur-Ninurta then succeeded Lipit-Ištar. Some documents and royal inscriptions from his time have survived, however; Lipit-Ištar is mostly known due to the Sumerian language hymns that were written in his honor, as well as a legal code written in his name (preceding the famed Code of Hammurabi by about 100 years)—which were used for school instruction for hundreds of years after Lipit-Ištar's death. The annals of Lipit-Ištar's reign recorded that he also repulsed the Amorites.

Excerpts from the "Code of Lipit-Ištar"

The text exists on several partial fragments. The following complete laws have been reconstructed:

§8 If a man gave bare ground to another man to set out as an orchard and the latter did not complete setting out that bare ground as an orchard, he shall give to the man who set out the orchard the bare ground which he neglected as part of his share.

§9 If a man entered the orchard of another man and was seized there for stealing, he shall pay ten shekels of silver.

§10 If a man cut down a tree in the garden of another man, he shall pay one-half mina of silver.

§11 If adjacent to the house of a man the bare ground of another man has been neglected and the owner of the house has said to the owner of the bare ground, "Because your ground has been neglected someone may break into my house: strengthen your house," and this agreement has been confirmed by him, the owner of the bare ground shall restore to the owner of the house any of his property that is lost.

§12 If a slave-girl or slave of a man has fled into the heart of the city and it has been confirmed that he (or she) dwelt in the house of (another) man for one month, he shall give slave for slave.

§13  If he has no slave, he shall pay fifteen shekels of silver.

§14 If a man's slave has compensated his slave-ship to his master and it is confirmed (that he has compensated) his master two-fold, that slave shall be freed.

§15 If a miqtum [servant] is the grant of a king, he shall not be taken away.

§16 If a miqtum went to a man of his own free will, that man shall not hold him; he (the miqtum) may go where he desires.

§17 If a man without authorization bound another man to a matter of which he (the latter) had no knowledge, that man is not affirmed (i.e., legally obligated); he (the first man) shall bear the penalty in regard to the matter to which he had bound him.

§18 If the master of an estate or the mistress of an estate has defaulted on the tax of an estate and a stranger has borne it, for three years he (the owner) may not be evicted. Afterwards, the man who bore the tax of the estate shall possess that estate and the former owner of the estate shall not raise any claim.

§22 If the father is living, his daughter whether she be a high priestess, a priestess, or a hierodule shall dwell in his house like an heir.

§24 If the second wife whom he had married bore him children, the dowry which she brought from her father's house belongs to her children but the children of his first wife and the children of his second wife shall divide equally the property of their father.

§25 If a man married his wife and she bore him children and those children are living, and a slave also bore children for her master but the father granted freedom to the slave and her children, the children of the slave shall not divide the estate with the children of their former master.

§27 If a man's wife has not borne him children but a harlot from the public square has borne him children, he shall provide grain, oil and clothing for that harlot. The children which the harlot has borne him shall be his heirs, and as long as his wife lives the harlot shall not live in the house with the wife.

§29 If a son-in-law has entered the house of his (prospective) father-in-law and afterwards they made him go out (of the house) and gave his wife to his companion, they shall present to him the betrothal gifts which he brought and that wife may not marry his companion.

§34 If a man rented an ox and injured the flesh at the nose ring, he shall pay one-third of its price.

§35 If a man rented an ox and damaged its eye, he shall pay one-half its price.

§36 If a man rented an ox and broke its horn, he shall pay one-fourth its price.

§37 If a man rented an ox and damaged its tail, he shall pay one-fourth its price.

A month on from the EU referendum, many Scottish employers are still wondering what the 'new world' will look like, and how this will affect their ability to fill jobs given the potential changes in immigration laws. Many are asking whether Scotland's businesses can flourish if they lose access tothe three million EU workers currently in the UK.
The ability to live, work and study anywhere within the EU has been an integral part of EU membership for decades. Access to a large pool of EU workers (without costs, admin or visa fees) has provided Scottish employers with a far greater pool of labour than they would otherwise have had, and has compensated for the London brain drain.
At present, it's unclear whether the principle of free movement of workers will remain part of our arrangements with the EU following Brexit. European leaders have indicated that the UK cannot access the single market without recognising free movement, while Theresa May has indicated that controlling EU migration is critical.
Although her government is still formulating the UK's position, some recent press comments have hinted that 'freedom of movement' for those who have a job may be an achievable compromise. But nothing is certain and as negotiations on the terms of the UK's exit from the EU will not commence until 2017, it appears that employers will be in the dark for months to come.
If free movement is restricted, it is inevitable that fewer migrants will come to Scotland. That could result in recruitment difficulties, particularly for lower-skilled jobs that are harder to fill. In some parts of Scotland almost a quarter of jobs in specific sectors are currently filled by EU workers. The needs of the Scottish economy have always been distinct from other parts of the UK and, with a falling working age population, it may not be in Scotland's interests to close its doors further to immigration.
The prospect of a second independence referendum adds an extra layer of uncertainty for Scottish employers. Will they be able to attract sufficient overseas talent when Scotland's relationship with the UK could be up in the air once again?
In the meantime, employers must deal with some immediate employee relations issues as a result of Brexit. Existing EU workers have been left in the unsatisfactory position of 'hoping' that they will be allowed to stay in the UK. Theresa May has indicated that assurances will not be given to EU workers in the UK until reciprocal arrangements have been agreed for Brits in the EU, so it may be some time before those EU workers can rest easy.
Although employers cannot give assurances, it would appear likely that some sort of arrangements will be negotiated to protect these employees' position. EU workers who have been working in the UK for five years are likely to have permanent residence rights and employers might want to encourage such employees to apply for a document to certify their residence rights to give them added comfort.
Looking forward, it does seem likely that recruitment will become trickier for employers in certain sectors. It is possible that we may see a broadening of the points-based immigration system to cover EU workers and also lower-skilled jobs if there are gaps in the labour market. Employers who have a sponsor licence should take care to ensure that any compliance obligations are met as the licence may become more important than ever in the future once the pool of EU workers' contracts.
All that is certain is that there will be change – and the sooner it happens, the less the impact will be. In employment terms, there will be an enormous job to do unpicking the fine print, but it is likely that ways will be found for EU workers already in Scotland to enjoy a similar status as at present. In the meantime, it's the short-term impact of more uncertainty that is most concerning for employers.

Olympic Champion Horton To Mark 150 000 Students Inspired by Olympics Unleashed
Olympic champion swimmer Mack Horton and 150 students from the bushfire-affected NSW south coast will notch a special milestone today, with Horton's virtual visit surpassing 150 000 students who have connected with Olympians through Olympics Unleashed, presented by Optus.
Students from Sapphire Coast Anglican College in Bega and St Peter's and Carroll Colleges in Broulee will digitally connect with Melbourne-based Horton, to share their experiences and hear from Mack about his Olympic journey.
Since launching in 2018, Olympics Unleashed has seen students from 1096 schools across the country connect directly with Olympians and Tokyo 2020 hopefuls, using lessons from their Olympic story to help students overcome challenges and pursue their passion.
AOC CEO Matt Carroll was thrilled to see Olympics Unleashed reach today's milestone.
"Reaching 150 000 Australian students is great testament to the enthusiasm of schools across Australia to connect with Olympians and learn from their stories," Mr Carroll said.
"That's 150 000 students who have heard directly from Olympians how to set goals, bounce back from disappointments, build resilience and overcome challenges – lessons that will help them discover and go after their own passions.
"It's fantastic that schools from bushfire affected parts of the NSW south coast are part of today's milestone. The AOC is committed to making sure the Olympic movement helps in rebuilding community spirit throughout these areas.
"Thank you to our presenting partner Optus and the Queensland, New South Wales, South Australian and ACT governments for your support to help take this free program to students across the country and we look forward to expanding the program even further in the near future.
"Thank you as well to the athletes, teachers and schools for your enthusiasm in sharing the Olympic spirit and adapting to online delivery of the program to keep Olympics Unleashed inspiring young people throughout 2020."
Rio 2016 400m freestyle gold medallist and Optus Ambassador Horton looked forward to connecting with students across the NSW south coast.
"This year has been testing for everyone, everywhere and it's important we embrace how much it has taught us about coming together to overcome it all," Horton said.
"I'm excited to have a moment with the students that focuses on positivity and camaraderie, to share my personal learnings and in turn, learn from their experiences with overcoming unimaginable adversity."
Horton will share his own personal journey, from a ten-year-old afraid of being underwater to an Olympic swimming champion, to inspire students to find and chase their passion.
"I want people to discover who they are as people and what they are capable of achieving so that they are able to fully give themselves to their dreams."
The program is free for schools thanks to the support of presenting partner Optus and state governments.
"We are delighted to see that the Olympics Unleashed program presented by Optus has now reached over 150,000 students nationally," Optus MD Marketing and Revenue Matt Williams said.
"There is no doubt we are looking forward to seeing our Australian athletes compete on the world stage next year at the Tokyo Games, but we're equally as excited to see the Olympics Unleashed program inspire the next generation of Australia sporting stars."
The program is free for schools and aimed at years 4-6 in Queensland and South Australia, year 9 in New South Wales and both years 4-6 and year 9 in ACT. Schools can find out more and register for the program now at www.olympicsunleashed.com.au.

Do You Drink Sake Warm Or Cold?
Japanese Cuisine / By Aura Ruggeri
Sake has become a more well known drink in modern times due to its inclusion in certain media like movies and TV.
1 What Exactly Is Sake?
2 Misconceptions About Sake
3 Sake: Warm Or Cold?
4 Sake's Frequently Asked Questions
4.1 What's The Deal With The Little Cups?
4.2 How Should I Keep A Bottle Of Sake?
4.3 Is There A Vintage Sake?
In Japan, it is widely enjoyed, but outside of Japan – not many people will understand the best way to drink it. Is it a drink to be enjoyed warm, or should it be drunk cold?
In this informational article, we're going to explore if you can drink sake warm or cold, along with some other handy notable facts!
What Exactly Is Sake?
Sake (see also 'Does Sake Expire?') is an alcoholic drink that is normally drunk in small amounts at a time, similar to how you'd enjoy a shooter – except it is served in a sakazuki or an ochoko.
It originated in Japan, likely in the Nara era which was in the 700s. It is made by brewer's rice – which is rice that is not used for eating – and then fermented, not distilled like spirits such as whiskey might be.
Some areas in Japan have sake as their national drink and it is enjoyed as a celebratory drink. Whereas some other areas of Japan will enjoy it as a welcoming drink. It is also used as a drink for tourists to enjoy when they visit.
Misconceptions About Sake
There are so many myths and stereotypes around sake as a drink and how it is enjoyed. For example, many people say that due to its clear color and small serving "glass", that sake must be strong – like a sambuca or tequila.
This isn't the case at all. In fact, the strongest Japanese made sake (see also,'What is Sake Made Of?') is only around the 22% mark which isn't exactly super strong.
Others say that it must be wine due to its process of fermentation. The fact is, although sake creation shares some common steps as wine making – it has a much more complex and unique method than this.
And, as we know, wine uses grapes as a base – whereas sake uses rice. There are large differences between the two drinks, although the strength and some processes are shared among the two.
Another misconception is that sake will give you the most horrendous hangover if you consume it. This is likely due to its color and, as with some previous points – the judgement is being made on the presentation and serving of the drink.
In fact, sake – as it is simply rice and water fermented, it doesn't have the same hangover creating ingredients as other drinks will.
Some experts say that the darker the drink, the worse your hangover will be due to congeners. The darker the drink, the more present the congeners. The fact is, sake does not share these characteristics.
However, sake can still get you drunk, and you will have the same results as drinking any other alcohol in terms of dehydration and potential alcohol poisoning – but the hangover level is not raised because it's sake, if anything, it's the other way around.
A final misconception is that sake must be drunk warm.
Sake: Warm Or Cold?
Ultimately, sake can be enjoyed warm or cold (see also 'How To Heat Sake'). There is no hard set rule on how sake should be consumed as such. Having said that though, drinking it cold or warm will make a difference.
The top sake in more contemporary times is drunk cold, but this isn't going to be the case for all of them. Heating sake can release some of its hidden flavors, and this technique is shared with many other alcoholic drinks.
Opposite to this, lower quality sake should be warm when drunk because it will mask the undesirable flavors that you might notice when it is cold.
The rule of thumb is, the better the sake – the warmer it should be. But in reality, you can drink sake however you like. Check the quality of your sake and try it both ways and see which way you prefer it.
Sake's Frequently Asked Questions
Sake's mystery to us will also lead to some inevitable frequently asked questions. Let's see some of them and provide answers!
What's The Deal With The Little Cups?
Japan is a nation of traditions, honor and wisdom. The small serving cups for sake breathe into these characteristics.
In Japan, it is seen as an honor to pour a drink or provide food for someone. If the cup is small, it can be poured multiple times, so this act of kindness and honor can be repeated over and over again in one setting.
In fact, the tradition of sake says that you shouldn't pour your own, but if you have nobody to do it for you – the younger person must pour it to the eldest person first.
Having said this though, sake can be consumed in different serving vessels. You can have a small wine glass if you so wish, but the tradition is not being followed properly.
How Should I Keep A Bottle Of Sake?
This is another area where wine and sake are similar. You should keep a bottle of sake in a dark area, but the best place is the fridge!
The difference here between wine and sake is that sake can last for much longer than wine can after it has been opened, and can likely stay in the fridge for a fortnight.
Is There A Vintage Sake?
No, sake operates similar to that of Champagne or Parmesan cheese. Real sake (see also, 'What Does Sake Taste Like?') will be made in Japan and will not have its taste compromised by a longer storage process or a recipe change.
Vintage drinks suggest that it has been left for many years to enhance its flavor, but sake does not need to do this and does not want to alter its taste dramatically in this way.
So, if you've got an unopened bottle of sake from 30 years ago – you might as well throw it out!
Sake is a drink that can be enjoyed warm or cold, but it depends on the quality of the sake. Ensure you've checked the label first!

"Yes, Tyler and I both want a boy, so we're definitely gonna try again," Catelynn admitted. So what's their ideal time frame?
Catelynn and Tyler are already the proud parents of Novalee and Carly. They placed their oldest daughter, Carly, for adoption in 2009.
Tyler and Cate announced her pregnancy in September 2018, and revealed they are thrilled about welcoming their "rainbow baby" to the world. Catelynn sadly suffered a miscarriage in 2017.
Initially, Tyler was totally shocked by the news because they were taking extra precautions.
"The fact that it happened while [we were] using protection…it was the universe saying this baby was meant to be born," Tyler said on the Reality Life podcast.
In October of last year, Catelynn gushed over how it was "an amazing feeling" to feel their baby girl kicking inside her belly.
The couple announced their month-long trial separation in November 2018, and it appears time apart helped mend their relationship.
Now, Tyler and Catelynn are going stronger than ever. They both gushed over how much they love each other in sweet social media posts in December.
"I can't wait to meet my baby, she will be here in about 4 weeks and I'd be lying if I said this video didn't get me emotional #ImACryBaby," the doting daddy continued.
Do you think they'd have a bouncing baby boy next time? Tell us in the comments and keep up with all the latest news by joining our Teen Mom Facebook group!

California has an extraordinarily high number of appeals of ICWA cases, particularly by Tribes, indicating that at the initial decision level Tribal Governments are often not well represented in ICWA cases.
In addition, California cities were destinations for many of the removal efforts of the federal government in the 20th century when families and children of Tribal communities were removed from reservations in assimilation efforts. As a result, there are a high number of Native American individuals in California whose heritage derives from tribes outside of the state.
A combination of these two factors has raised common concerns for the ability of Indian Children and their Tribal interests to receive proper protection under ICWA and the barriers to out-of-state Tribes' representation in ICWA cases in the State of California. The proposal partially stems from a California ICWA Compliance Task Force presentation to California Attorney General Xavier Becerra, which highlighted the problems associated with representation for out-of-state Tribes and recommended the revision for pro hac vice rules. Review of the rules can be found here. Comments regarding the proposed rule change, due by June 8, 2018, may be submitted to the Judicial Council of California by clicking here. If adopted, the revised rule would take effect January 1, 2019. The Judicial Council's invitation to comment and additional information can be found here.

This weekend was my daughters birthday. I blinked and she was 26! How did this happen? I mean wasn't I just teaching her to walk yesterday?
Every birthday she has is also a special day for me. I was told in early adulthood I would most likely never be able to have a child. I have more faith in the Lord than the words of a doctor. My daughter is proof of that.
We did not have any real plans for her birthday this weekend. We had planned to be out of town and she had plans with friends. Our plans fell through so we called her up to ask if she would like for us to come take her to breakfast. That girl will not turn down food so of course the answer was yes.
We jumped in the car and headed to Charlotte. We let her choose a place. "I know a nice little bakery just a half a mile down the street" she said.
We wanted to walk since it was such a beautiful day.
So a few blocks down, we settle into a cozy little bakery. It was small and felt like walking into grandmaws kitchen. It was called Sun flour bakery company.
I ordered an egg, cheddar and avacodo on toast. I guess for breakfast it's called toast, and for lunch it's called a sandwich. The birthday girl and Nick ordered the cheddar biscuts with bacon and egg. Together we shared a giant cinnimon roll that was out of this world. (It was gone before I could get a photo). The place was a little pricey but the food was worth it.
Afterwards we headed back to her place where we then gave her a birthday present and her very own cheese cake. Of course Nick had to fix a few things around her apartment because some things have to be fixed by dad. We left in time for her to meet up with the girls for some time around the pool. We will see her again next weekend as we plan to give her a birthday dinner with family.
Wow 26! I wish I could have bottled her up and keeped her little forever.
A very happy birthday to your beautiful girl.
It is good for you and her I am sure. I hope you get to the beach soon! (Hope you are feeling better)!!!!!!!
it's also crazy to think kids born in 2000 will be 18 next year.
Looks like a lovely breakfast sandwich. Happy Birthday.
Sounds like a lovely day. Happy Birthday to your daughter.
Yes, they sure do grow fast.
I have a grandson the same age!!! They grow up even faster!!!
The years do move quickly, I understand about fixing things around the daughters place but that never bothered me either.
Happy Birthday to your Daughter, it looks like you all had a great day.
I use to live in Charlotte, NC :) Looks like ya'll had a nice time, thanks for visiting my blog.
She's the same age as my younger daughter, Lisa - how fast the years have flown by!
She is a lovey youngun.

Мужская сексуальность человека охватывает широкий спектр чувств и поведенческих особенностей. Чувство влечения у мужчин может быть вызвано различными физическими и социальными особенностями их потенциального партнера. Сексуальное поведение мужчин может зависеть от многих факторов, включая развитые предрасположенности, индивидуальные особенности, воспитание и культуру. В то время как большинство мужчин гетеросексуальны, существует также значительное меньшинство гомосексуалов или в той или иной степени бисексуалов.

Сексуальное влечение

Физические факторы
Исследования показывают, что мужчин, как правило, привлекают молодые женщины с определённой симметрией тела. Симметрия лица и женственность также связаны с привлекательностью. Мужчины обычно находят привлекательной женскую грудь, и это утверждение справедливо для различных культур. Предпочтение женщин со светлой кожей было задокументировано во многих культурах.

Женщины с относительно низким соотношением талии и бедер считаются более привлекательными. Точное соотношение варьируется в разных культурах, в зависимости от роли женщин в местной культуре. В западных культурах предпочтительным является значение 0,7. Другие возможные физические факторы привлекательности включают низкий индекс массы тела, низкую окружность талии, более длинные ноги и большую кривизну (изгиб) поясницы. Предпочтение стройного или полного телосложения зависит от культуры. В бедных странах, где еды мало, полнота ассоциируется с более высоким статусом и является более привлекательной, однако для богатых стран это утверждение неверно.

Мужчины обычно предпочитают, чтобы их жены были моложе их, но насколько именно, зависит от культуры. Пожилые мужчины предпочитают большую разницу в возрасте, в то время как мужчины-подростки предпочитают женщин немного старше их.

Точная степень, в которой внешний вид считается важным при выборе долгосрочного партнера, варьируется в разных культурах.

Нефизические факторы
Выбирая долгосрочных партнеров, и мужчины, и женщины желают иметь умных, добрых, понимающих и здоровых. Они также отдают предпочтение партнерам, которые имеют схожие ценности, взгляды, личностные и религиозные убеждения.

Важность добрачного целомудрия сильно варьируется в зависимости от культуры, а также религиозных убеждений и сексуальной ориентации человека. В западной культуре важность и ценность целомудрия среди гетеросексуальных людей с течением времени снижалась. В 1939 году среди 18 различных атрибутов целомудрие было поставлено на 10 место, а в 1990 году только на 17 место.

Сексуальное поведение

На сексуальное поведение мужчин влияют многие факторы. К ним относятся эволюционировавшие тенденции, такие как повышенный интерес к случайному сексу, а также индивидуальные и социальные факторы, связанные с воспитанием, личностью и статусом отношений.

Интерес к случайному сексу

По сравнению с женщинами, мужчины проявляют больший интерес к случайному сексу. В среднем мужчины выражают большее желание иметь разных сексуальных партнеров, предпочитают меньше времени тратить на поиск партнера для секса, имеют более богатые сексуальные фантазии с участием разных сексуальных партнеров, считают сигналы о сексуальной эксплуатации привлекательными для кратковременного спаривания, испытывают больше сожаления по поводу упущенных возможности заняться сексом, имеют большее количество внебрачных связей и с большей частотой ищут знакомств и друзей с целью получения личной выгоды, а также чаще посещают проституток.

Воспитание и личность
В одном исследовании было выявлено несколько факторов, влияющих на возраст первого полового акта среди молодежи в возрасте 13—18 лет. Те из семей, в которых присутствовали оба родителя, из высокого социально-экономического положения, которые лучше учились в школе, были более религиозными, имели более высокие родительские инвестиции и чувствовали, что их родители заботятся о них, показали гораздо более низкий уровень сексуальной активности во всех возрастных группах, участвовавших в исследовании. Напротив, люди с более высоким уровнем гордости за свое тело демонстрировали более высокий уровень сексуальной активности.

Социосексуальность

Мужчины, состоящие в серьезных отношениях, имеют ограниченную социосексуальную ориентацию и будут иметь другое сексуальное поведение по сравнению с мужчинами, имеющими неограниченную социосексуальную ориентацию. Мужчины с ограниченной социосексуальной ориентацией будут менее охотно заниматься сексом вне своих постоянных отношений и будут вести себя в соответствии со своим желанием обязательств и эмоциональной близости со своим партнером.

Мужчины с социально-сексуальными ограничениями реже подходят к женщинам с более низким соотношением талии и бедер (0,68—0,72), которые обычно считаются более физически привлекательными.

Родительский вклад

Элизабет Кэшдан предположила, что стратегии спаривания у обоих полов различаются в зависимости от того, сколько родительских инвестиций (вклада) получает мужчина, и предоставила подтверждение своим гипотезам в исследовании.

Когда мужчины ожидают (получают) высокого уровня родительского вклада, они будут пытаться привлечь женщин, подчеркивая свою способность вкладываться. Кроме того, мужчины, которые планируют инвестировать, с большей вероятностью будут подчеркивать свое целомудрие и верность, чем мужчины, которые не планируют инвестировать.

Мужчины, ожидающие (получающие) низких родительских инвестиций, будут выставлять напоказ свою сексуальность перед женщинами. Кэшдан также отмечает, что мужчины, получающие высокий уровень родительского вклада, в большей степени подчёркивают своё целомудрие и верность в отношениях. Она также полагает, что такой тип поведения является более выгодным, иначе бы не существовало полового отбора.

Уверенность в отцовстве
Уверенность в отцовстве — степень, с которой мужчина знает или верит, что ребенок от женщины — его.

В полигамных обществах мужчины испытывают большую сексуальную ревность, когда существует низкая уверенность в отцовстве. Это потому, что они не хотят рисковать, тратя время, энергию и ресурсы на ребенка, который им не принадлежит.

Социально-экономические различия между культурами также влияют на уверенность в отцовстве. В стране с «высокой плодовитостью», такой как Намибия, 96 % мужчин проявляют сексуальную ревность.

Кроме того, существует большая вероятность потери отцовства и неопределенности в отношении отцовства при недостатке средств контрацепции.

Сексуальное насилие

Мужчины гораздо чаще совершают акты сексуального насилия, чем женщины. Возможно, изнасилование является неадаптивным побочным продуктом других эволюционировавших механизмов, таких как стремление к сексуальному разнообразию и сексу без вложений и общая способность к проявлению физической агрессии. Мужские гендерные роли и чувство «естественного и сексуального права», которые обычно поддерживаются в патриархальных и гетеронормативных обществах, предсказывают отношение и поведение мужчин, связанные с изнасилованием. Однако, возможно, эволюционный отбор в среде предков в некоторых случаях благоприятствовал мужчинам, которые насиловали, в результате чего само изнасилование превратилось в институт социальной адаптации и с течением времени стало институционализированной нормой. Ученые из нескольких областей науки критиковали эту гипотезу. Дэвид Басс утверждает, что четких доказательств в любом случае не хватает.

Гомосексуальность

Сексуальная ориентация и сексуальная идентичность

Сексуальная ориентация относится к относительному влечению человека к мужчинам, женщинам или к обоим полам. Большинство исследователей, изучающих сексуальную ориентацию, фокусируются на моделях влечения, а не на поведении или идентичности, потому что культура влияет на выражение поведения или идентичности, и именно влечение формирует поведение и идентичность, а не наоборот.

Помимо гетеросексуальности или гомосексуальности, люди могут быть любой степени бисексуальности. Бейли и другие учёные заявили, что они выявили, что во всех культурах подавляющее большинство людей сексуально предрасположены исключительно к другому полу, а меньшинство сексуально предрасположено к тому же полу, независимо от того, исключительно к другому или в какой-либо степени.

Согласно западным опросам, около 93 % мужчин идентифицируют себя как полностью гетеросексуальные, 4 % — как в основном гетеросексуальные, 0,5 % — как более равномерно бисексуальные, 0,5 % — как в основном гомосексуальные и 2 % — как полностью гомосексуальные. Анализ 67 исследований показал, что распространенность секса между мужчинами в течение жизни (независимо от ориентации) составляла 3—5 % для Восточной Азии, 6—12 % для Южной и Юго-Восточной Азии, 6—15 % для Восточной Европы и 6—20 % для Латинской Америки. Всемирная организация здравоохранения оценивает распространенность мужчин, занимающихся сексом с мужчинами, во всем мире составляет от 3 до 16 %.

Сексуальную ориентацию можно измерить с помощью самоотчёта или физиологически. Существует множество физиологических методов, включая измерение эрекции полового члена во время просмотра порнографических материалов, МРТ и измерение расширение зрачков. У мужчин все они демонстрируют высокую степень корреляции с показателями самоотчёта, включая мужчин, которые считают себя «в основном натуралами» или «в основном геями».

То, какое влияние гомосексуальность оказывает на социальную идентичность человека, варьируется в разных культурах. Вопрос о том, как именно в культурах разных стран на протяжении всей истории понималось гомосексуальное влечение и поведение, является предметом некоторых дискуссий.

В большей части современного мира сексуальная идентичность и сексуальная ориентация определяются на основе пола партнера, к которому человек испытывает сексуальное и романическое влечение. Однако в некоторых частях мира сексуальность часто определяется обществом на основе сексуальных ролей, независимо от того, является ли человек проникающим или подвергается проникновению, то есть роль «сверху» («актив») или роль «снизу» («пассив»).

Причины гомосексуальности

Хотя ни одна причинно-следственная теория еще не получила широкой поддержки, существует значительно больше доказательств, подтверждающих несоциальные причины сексуальной ориентации, чем социальные, особенно для мужчин. Эти доказательства включают в себя межкультурную корреляцию гомосексуальности и гендерного несоответствия в детстве, умеренные генетические влияния, обнаруженные в исследованиях близнецов, доказательства пренатального гормонального воздействия на организацию мозга, эффект братского порядка рождения и открытие того, что в редких случаях, когда младенцы мужского пола воспитывались как девочки из-за физического уродства или по другим причинам, они, тем не менее, испытывали влечение к женщинам.

Предполагаемые социальные причины подтверждаются лишь слабыми доказательствами, искаженными многочисленными мешающими факторами. Кросс-культурные данные также больше склоняются к несоциальным причинам. Культуры, которые очень терпимы к гомосексуальности, не имеют значительно более высоких показателей гомосексуальности ни среди мужчин, ни среди женщин. Гомосексуалы относительно часто встречаются среди мальчиков в британских однополых школах-интернатах, но взрослые британцы, посещавшие такие школы, не более склонны к гомосексуальному поведению, чем те, кто этого не делал. Кроме того, народ симбари (также известный как симбари анга), проживающий в провинции Восточное нагорье Папуа-Новой Гвинеи, придерживается древней традиции, которая ритуально требует, чтобы мальчики занимались сексом с другими мальчиками в подростковом возрасте, прежде чем они получат какой-либо доступ к женщинам, однако большинство из этих мальчиков становятся гетеросексуальными.

До конца не понятно, почему гены гомосексуальности или позволяющие ей развиваться, какими бы они ни были, сохраняются в генофонде. Одна из гипотез связана с родственным отбором, предполагающим, что гомосексуалы вкладывают достаточно большие средства в своих родственников, чтобы компенсировать затраты на то, чтобы не воспроизводить столько потомства. Это не было подтверждено исследованиями в западных культурах, но несколько исследований на Самоа нашли некоторую поддержку этой гипотезе. Другая гипотеза включает сексуально антагонистические гены, которые вызывают гомосексуальность, когда экспрессируются у мужчин, но увеличивают размножение, когда экспрессируются у женщин. Исследования как в западных, так и в иных культурах нашли подтверждение этой гипотезе.

Была выдвинута гипотеза, что гомосексуальное поведение само по себе может быть адаптацией для однополой принадлежности или создания брачных союзов, хотя эта склонность будет генетически варьироваться у разных людей и чаще встречается, когда конкуренция за партнерш особенно жесткая. Эволюционный психолог Дэвид Басс раскритиковал эту гипотезу, заявив, что нет никаких доказательств того, что большинство молодых людей в большинстве культур используют гомоэротическое поведение для установления союзов. Кроме того, по его мнению, вместо этого нормой является то, что однополые союзы не должны сопровождаться какой-либо сексуальной активностью. Кроме того, он утверждает, что нет никаких доказательств того, что мужчины, которые занимаются гомоэротическим поведением, преуспевают лучше, чем другие мужчины, в создании союзов или повышении социального статуса. Другие исследователи также раскритиковали его, отметив, что:

 межкультурные данные о сексуальных практиках отрывочны и неравномерны;

 что нет необходимости предполагать, что гомосексуальное поведение в большей степени, чем любое другое сексуальное поведение, подвергаются прямому отбору, а не являются нейтральным побочным продуктом;
 что гипотеза игнорирует существование сексуальной ориентации;
 что это противоречит выводам о том, что по поведенческим критериям гомосексуалы или бисексуалы имеют гораздо более низкие показатели отцовства;
 что приматы с гомосексуальным поведением не являются однородным явлением, и оно варьируется внутри и между видами;
 и что, поскольку однополые сексуальные партнеры выбираются на основе сексуальных эмоций (в отличие, например, от бонобо), союзы такого рода будут возникать только так часто, как взаимное и сексуальное влечение, и такая изменчивость, по-видимому, указывает на отсутствие замысла естественного отбора.

Naturally colored cotton is cotton that has been bred to have colors other than the yellowish off-white typical of modern commercial cotton fibres. Colors grown include red, green and several shades of brown. The cotton's natural color does not fade. Yields are typically lower and the fiber is shorter and weaker but has a softer feel than the more commonly available "white" cotton.

This form of cotton also feels softer to the skin and has a pleasant smell. Naturally colored Cotton is still relatively rare because it requires specialized harvest techniques and facilities, making it more expensive to harvest than white cotton.  By the 1990s most indigenous colored cotton landraces or cultivars grown in Africa, Asia and Central and South America were replaced by all-white, commercial varieties.

History
Naturally colored cotton is believed to have originated in the Americas around 5000 years ago in the Andes. Naturally colored cotton today mostly comes from pre-Columbian stocks created by the indigenous peoples of South America (Vreeland, 1999). Mochica Indians could be credited with growing naturally colored cotton of many hues, which they maintained for over the last two millennia on the northern coast of Peru.

Colors
Natural color in cotton comes from pigments found in cotton; these pigments can produce shades ranging from tan to green and brown. Naturally pigmented green cotton derives its color from caffeic acid, a derivative of cinnamic acid, found in the suberin (wax) layer which is deposited in alternating layers with cellulose around the outside of the cotton fiber. While green colored cotton comes from wax layers, brown and tan cottons derive their color from tannin vacuoles in the lumen of the fiber cells.

Limitations
The naturally colored cotton has a small fiber and is not suitable for heavy machine spinning. During World War II an insufficient supply of dye led to the cultivation of green and brown cotton in the Soviet Union. The US government also showed interest in cultivation of naturally colored cotton but later aborted the project due to low yield and short staple length.

"Later on US government instructed a famous agronomist, J.O.Ware, to study the Soviet cotton plants to determine whether they were commercially viable in the U.S.   Ware and his colleagues concluded that the green and brown cotton plants yielded too little lint that was too short in staple length.  Colored cotton was officially regulated to obscurity.  Only in a few places were people still entranced by its possibilities."

Due to the smaller fiber, it becomes unpractical to use naturally colored cotton for clothing manufacture. But sometimes colored cotton is mixed in with conventional white cotton to make its fiber longer and stronger than other naturally colored cotton, to be used in typical looms. Since this hybrid cotton fiber is stronger, it is being used by Levi Strauss, L.L. Bean, Eileen Fisher, and Fieldcrest for clothes using khaki cloth.

Commercial cultivation
Commercial cultivation still continues in South America as many big US companies such as Patagonia, Levi Strauss, and Esprit are buying naturally grown cotton along with white cotton which requires significant amount of insecticides and pesticides.

Upgrade in technology
In 1982, Sally Fox a graduate in Integrated Pest Management from University of California started researching colored cotton, integrated her knowledge and experience in technology and introduced the first long fiber of naturally colored cotton. Sally Fox later started her company, Natural Cotton Colors, Inc. and obtained patents in different shades including: green, coyote brown, buffalo brown, and Palo Verde green under FoxFiber.

Later on, the technology was further improved by cotton breeder Raymond Bird in 1984. Bird began experimenting in Reedley, California, with red, green, and brown cotton to improve fiber quality. Later on Raymond Bird, along with his brother and C. Harvey Campbell Jr., a California agronomist and cotton breeder, formed BC Cotton Inc. to work with naturally colored cottons. Naturally colored cotton usually come in four standard colors - green, brown, red (a reddish brown) and mocha (similar to tan).

Benefits
There is experimental evidence to demonstrate that naturally pigmented cottons, especially green cotton, have excellent sun protection properties, when compared with unbleached white cotton that needs to be treated with dyes or finishes to obtain similar properties. It is hypothesized that the pigments in naturally pigmented cotton fibers are present to provide protection from ultraviolet radiation for the embryonic cotton seeds, however they can also provide protection from the sun's harmful rays for consumers who wear garments manufactured from these naturally pigmented fibers. The UPF values of the naturally pigmented cottons examined in a university study remained high enough, even after 80 AFUs (AATCC Fading Units)of light exposure and repeated laundering, that the fabrics merited sun protection ratings of "good" to "very good" according to ASTM 6603 voluntary labeling guidelines for UV-protective textiles.

Use of dyes
Naturally colored cotton is different from white cotton as it does not need to be dyed. According to agronomists, the cost of dyeing could be up to half of the cost, and not dyeing is also environmentally friendly, as it eliminates disposal costs for toxic dye waste. Naturally colored cotton is also resistant to deterioration as compared with the conventional dyed white cotton. After laundering, the color becomes stronger and more intense, a characteristic documented during research studies at Texas Tech University. The length of time required to "bring out" the color varies with color and variety. Eventually, the colors may start to return to their original color. Some naturally colored cotton darkens with exposure to the sun. However, green is less stable and fades to tan when exposed to sunlight.

Cost
Due to the non-industrialized product, naturally colored cottons yield less per acre, but growers are paid higher prices for their harvest. In 1993, colored cotton prices ranged from $3.60 to $4.50 per pound compared to conventional white cotton at $0.60 to $0.90 per pound.

Event Organizer: - Dr.T.Ramesh, Assistant Professor, Enviro club Co-ordinator Department of Biotechnology, Hindustan College of Arts & Science.
As the population the World increases the emergence of solid waste also increases. Hence the Enviro club, Department of Biotechnology, conducted the event Wealth from Waste to reuse and reduce the solid waste. The ultimate Aim of the event is to bring out the creativity among students and to minimize the solid waste. The idea rose from inspirational quotes of our Founder "Make Every Man A Success, No Man A Failure". Also with reference to the speech by Dr.S.Thirumagan-Principal, Hindustan College of Arts & Science - 'when creativity is exposed out, bad habits of the students gradually get reduced' on the Chimera Association's National Conference.
The event "Wealth from Waste" was celebrated by the Enviro club, Department of Biotechnology, Hindustan College of Arts & Science. In accordance to the objective, the aim of the event serves to reduce the solid waste i.e. domestic waste by transforming into handmade crafts. Students were highly motivated by the event organizer in transforming the useless waste to useful handmade outcome. Totally 57 crafts were made out of solid waste by the students of various Departments. The handmade crafts were exhibited for the viewers in a hall and the exhibition hall was inaugurated by Respected Principal Dr.S.Thirumagan, Hindustan College of Arts & Science. The crafts were exhibited for three days from the Inauguration day for an open exhibition. The exhibits were evaluated by the judges Dr.S.Illanjium, Dean of Life Sciences and Mr.Prabhu, Head of the Department –Visual Communication, Hindustan College of Arts & Science.
By the afternoon the programme started in the Seminar hall with the prayer song by the students of II B.Sc Biotechnology. The welcome speech was delivered by Mr.Amala Lourthraj, Assistant Proffessor –Department of Biotechnology. The felicitation address is given by Dr.S.Thirumagan-Principal, Hindustan College of Arts & Science. The judges Dr.S.Illanjium, Dean of Life Sciences and Mr.Prabhu, Head of the Department –Visual Communication, Hindustan College of Arts & Science shared their views of the exhibition.
Students named Mythili Divya from III B.Sc and Anne Arthana Nagarajah from II M.Sc wrote Tamil poem on the topic of the event Wealth from Waste. Their poem was read out to everyone in the hall. Also Students named A.Amuthavalli from II M.Sc , Kaushik and Nivetha.R from I M.Sc Biotechnology displayed their handmade posters in the exhibition hall.The first three prizes and three consolation prizes were given to the winners. The certificates were issued to all the 57 participants. The Vote of thanks was delivered by Dr.T.Ramesh, Assistant Professor, and Department of Biotechnology, Hindustan College of Arts & Science.
The entire programme was anchored by A.Amuthavalli II M.Sc Biotechnology. The entire programme was organized by Dr.T.Ramesh, Assistant Professor and Enviro club Co-ordinator, Department of Biotechnology, HCAS. The programme successfully ended up with the National Anthem. The event was a Grand Success.


Two-player game. Shuffle the cards (52 card pack plus two jokers), and four cards to each player. Stack the remaining cards face down to form a draw pile between the players. Next to it is a face up discard pile, which begins empty.
Play alternately. At a player's turn, he first draws enough cards to bring his hand up to five cards. These can be drawn from the stock, or may include one card drawn from the top of the discard pile, provided that this card was discarded by the player's opponent. Then the player either plays a move - playing a legal combination of two or more cards to the table, as shown in the table below, or discards one card face up on top of the discard pile.
A joker can be used as a substitute for any card, but in most cases it may be better to keep it to respond to a future attempt by one's opponent to win the game.
Some moves (4-4, 5-5, 6-6, 7-7, 8-8) cause the player to draw two replacement cards from the face down pile and then play again, either another move or a discard.
Some moves (A-A-A, A-2-3, 4-5-6, Q-Q-Q) require an immediate response from the opponent, otherwise the game is won.
After the move and response if any, the cards played are removed from the game - they are put aside until the next deal (not added to the discard pile). The same happens to any card taken from the opponent by a weakener move (9-9, 10-10, J-J). It is then the other player's turn to draw until he is holding five cards and play.
The winner is the player who completes a PIN ATTEMPT, FINISHER or SUBMISSION ATTEMPT to which the opponent cannot respond, or the player who delivers a KNOCKOUT, or theis player's opponent if the player is DISQUALIFIED. If the cards run out, then the game will result in a draw, or for a longer game you can shuffle the discard pile and continue playing until you find a winner.
