Call Me A ‘Slut’ Any Day Of The Week
Posted by Michelle Moquin on September 14th, 2009
George: You know I’m and ‘eye for an eye’ kinda girl. So Let me get this straight….You don’t think the way you disrespect women isn’t ‘too cruel’? You don’t think that not letting women have control over their bodies isn’t ‘too cruel’? You don’t think that enslaving women isn’t ‘too cruel’? You don’t think that raping women isn’t ‘too cruel’? As far as I can tell, you can dish it out but you can’t take.
And I don’t want to hear your excuses that these are your god’s laws. You think you can say and do anything because you feel it is your god’s law…the way of the bible. Sorry I don’t buy it, never will, and I’ll never be a god fearing woman. Why would I fear or want to fear god?
In regards to that ‘slut’, oh…I just love that word. Of course it was a man who made the definition of a woman who loves sex derogatory, and the definition of a man who loves sex (stud) complimentary. Another way to control the pussy.
Women: From now on, the word ‘slut’ sits right alongside the word ‘stud’. Girls, are you with me? Don’t you just love being a ‘slut’? I do. I love sex. Nothing wrong with loving what god gave you in the form of pleasure. :)
So George, call me a ‘slut’, any day of the week. Oh, and the slut that left you. I doubt she’s in hell…no, I bet she is in heaven every night she goes to bed. Can you hear her screamin’ ‘Oh god!’?
Hit a nerve did I? A real man would hang in there. I mean you expect women to hang in there, don’t you?
Lastly, did I say size was everything? No. George, I’m not knocking you for your small dick. You can’t help it that your god didn’t gift you between the legs. I’m only pointing out, how because of your small dick, you compensate over and over again. So to answer your question, ”No size isn’t everything, but you certainly think it is by the way you act to compensate for it.” Pity for you, you feel the need to do so. Pity for you, you let the less intelligent head rule your life. Pity for the women in this world that have to put up with and suffer from your bigotry, and those like you, because of this need you have to compensate for your little dick.
So how about a joke?
Zen Lill: You’re gonna love this. Readers: I couldn’t help but add in my own little comments in (red)
An Italian Boy’s Confession
‘Bless me Father, for I have sinned.
I have been with a loose girl’. (He really wanted to say, “I have been with a ‘slut.’”)
The priest asks, ‘Is that you, little Joey Pagano ?’
‘Yes, Father, it is.’
‘And who was the girl you were with?’
‘I can’t tell you, Father. I don’t want to ruin her reputation’. (Are you thinking, “Good little boy. Most want to brag who they’ve been with.” Oh but don’t think he’s such a saint; This little boy has a hidden agenda for his ‘not wanting to ruin her reputation’.)
“Well, Joey, I’m sure to find out her name sooner or later
so you may as well tell me now. Was it Tina Minetti?’
‘I cannot say.’
‘Was it Teresa Mazzarelli?’
‘I’ll never tell.’
‘Was it Nina Capelli?’
‘I’m sorry, but I cannot name her.’
‘Was it Cathy Piriano?’
‘My lips are sealed.’
‘Was it Rosa DiAngelo, then?’
‘Please, Father, I cannot tell you.’
The priest sighs in frustration.
‘You’re very tight lipped, and I admire that.
But you’ve sinned and have to atone.
You cannot be an altar boy now for 4 months.
Now you go and behave yourself.’
Joey walks back to his pew,
and his friend Franco slides over and whispers,
‘What’d you get?’
‘Four months vacation and five good leads.’ (Didn’t I say he had an agenda?. They learn young, yes?)
Ah…men….they knock a woman for sluttin’ around unless they’re the one she’s sluttin’ around with. :)

Sikudhani and all of the rest of the girls: I don’t know how Ruth and Anonz connected up to free you girls but all that matters is that you are free. You no longer need to be in fear. You are safe. I am so happy for you and the girls. I am so happy and grateful to all of those involved.
Al: I agree with your post ‘American idol’, I just think the title was poorly picked. Although ‘AI’ is a reality show, it is far different from many of the really bad reality shows out there. It is sad that the general public thirsts for them just as sad as they thirst for more cops shows, and movies depicting war, espionage and murder.
Billy: This is fun. Another good one. I like this one: “The short fortune teller who escaped from prison was a small medium at large.” Keep ‘em comin’.
Anonymous #9: My pleasure. We need more humor on this blog sometimes otherwise I get way too too serious. I hope that you find a better barber!
Ruth: You are not monopolizing my blog. I am delighted that we have another regular. I liked your comment too and learned something myself, so thank you.
And especially happy in regards to this past good fortune for Sikudhani and the rest of the girls. I don’t know who you are or what you do, but thank you for reading here so that you became aware of Sikudhani’s situation, and more importantly that you helped do something about it. We need more people in the world like you. And of course a big thank you to Anonz too.
What an inspiring and wonderful story Anna – thank you for sharing. Hi Peter! Hafa Adai.
That’s it for me today. I hope that everyone has a good Monday!
Gratefully your blog host and forever a ‘slut’,
michelle

Now the Drug companies are considering duping americans into taking a Pollypill. They have been successful with their new policy which is NO CURES. The drug companies are only into making drugs that force the patient to have to buy them for life.
Now they will be pushing a pill that the american people will be convinced that they have to take even when they are not sick so that they may not get sick. They do not care if the pill itself will make you sick from something other than what you are taking it to prevent (heart disease) that’s a bonus to them.
It will be a bonus because they will make a pill you will have to buy for life for that. We now have legal drug pushers called the american pharmaceutical industry.
Here is their latest scam.
CAN ONE PILL CURE OUR COUNTRY’S HEART PROBLEM?
One pill prevents it all. At first pass, some might think the proposal to prescribe a preventive polypill to people at risk for heart disease sounds like a great idea — the combo capsule would blend several preventive medications into one, making it easy and efficient for everyone, including doctors, patients and pharmacies.
In reality, however, there are problems with this proposal. In fact, the pros and cons of this new cardiovascular polypill product was a top topic at this year’s annual meeting of the American College of Cardiology, with plenty of arguing on both sides of the issue.
WHAT’S A POLYPILL?
I’ve seen numerous TV ads for products that combine different drugs into one dose, including blood pressure medications and over-the-counter cold remedies. The cardiac polypill proposal presented at the ACC Conference takes this in a new direction as a preventive medicine, intended to keep heart disease away from people who aren’t yet sick. Called the “Polycap,” it contains three blood pressure-lowering medications at low doses, plus a statin and aspirin.
A three-month study of 2,053 participants found this product brought about slight reductions in both blood pressure (systolic BP was reduced by 7.4 mmHg compared with those not receiving blood pressure drugs) … and LDL cholesterol by 0.70 mmol/L … and was well tolerated.
COULD IT KEEP HEART DISEASE AWAY?
Some believe wide use of such drugs is worth considering. A study published in the British Medical Journal in 2003 claimed that this polypill cocktail could reduce ischemic heart disease events by 88% and stroke risk by 80%.
The study’s authors claimed that such a strategy “would be acceptably safe and with widespread use would have a greater impact on the prevention of disease in the Western world than any other single intervention.”
My own list of concerns about this strategy is a long one, but I called Robert O. Bonow, MD, Goldberg Distinguished Professor at the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, to see what an expert cardiologist might say.
He said he believes Americans would love a pill “you take every day that allows you to continue to eat what you like and to smoke and not exercise,” but he doesn’t believe it’s a good health strategy because it sends the wrong message and elicits the wrong behavior.
Dr. Bonow said that a better solution would be funding of better strategies for lifestyle, better exercise facilities, more health messages, better advertising on television for kids so they aren’t seeing all the soft drink and chip ads, etc.
MEDICAL RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE POLYPILL
Dr. Bonow pointed out there are serious potential medical problems associated with widespread use of this polypill plan, too. Each of the drugs in the pill has its own associated risks, he pointed out — for instance, aspirin can increase the risk of bleeding, while statins can cause liver damage, memory loss and other serious health problems for some people.
Mixing a variety of drugs into a single pill may increase the risk of side effects and interactions, perhaps exponentially.
If side effects arise, how do you ascertain which of the drug components is causing the problem — is it the combination of drugs, a particular one or does the dosing of one or several of the ingredients need to be tweaked to get the “just right” level?
Also, dosing should be adjusted so that each patient receives the right amount of each drug to reach his/her goals, and the fixed doses contained in a polypill mean that some patients would be under-treated, while others would be over-treated. Paradoxically, the polypill may create more problems than it solves.
People who want effective treatment and prevention would do better to discuss their lifestyle and risk factors with their doctors to figure out what changes are necessary to improve health. Keep track of your cholesterol level, with an eye toward achieving your target level. Be aware of your blood pressure.
If you take one or several medications to help you reach the right levels, be sure you are taking the doses that are right for you. This pill won’t serve as a substitute for taking better care of yourself… and I don’t expect one ever will.

Hi Mischa, I’m with you BABE, I am a slut everyday of the week! A slut with good taste and sense…it amazes me when men are blown away by women who are way in touch with their inner slut : ) I mean who in the hell are they having satisfying sex with anyway? Certainly not moi. But that begs the Q: are they having SATISFYING sex or just sex and sex is sex as much pussy is pussy and dick is dick, NOT.
To illustrate this point I was chatting with an male pal I’ve known 20+ years, he was lamenting about being able to be monogamous (he’s engaged) and said I see women and I want them, but I always go for the looker with intellect that I like, I can’t just bed any random woman, blah, blah…I said, wow so has J expressed how difficult it can be to be monogamous for her also? He looked at me like HUH?! I laughed my ass off and said, look I’m going to say this slowly so you get it bc I like you so much, but if you are out of town and hitting on intelligent women hasn’t it occurred to you that some other man is doing the same to your pretty woman (who is an icon in a male world), Mr Doom-ass : ) ? He was stunned. Yeah, so listen up, males, other men are eyeballing and most likely making subtle and/or blatant come-on’s to your women – so we actually have much more opportunity to f up that whole monogamy thing if we want to, thus the religious need to ‘keep us in line’ well, how about this: let’s say you get cracking in the pleasing your woman department and quit acting like we’re around to service your every need. I’m not a tough woman at all, you can ask any past/present male who has contact with me, I just tell like it is and will be, don’t pull bs you wouldn’t want pulled on you, end of story.
Women, I am running late today so in addition to what you’re already doing we’re adding ‘plank’ today, it’s a yoga move, so after your energy through the fingertips stretch, turn over onto your belly, and put your hands side by side right where your neck meets your chest, elbows out to the side to form a triangle and that will be where you bear your wieght as you lift up your body onto hands/elbows and curled under toes, tighten everything in between, torso, biceps/triceps and shoulders, down the backs of legs as well, if you’re first reaction is I have no upper body strength, well – hmmm, neither did I 2 years ago, so I’m asking you to hold it for 2 seconds, drop dwon for 2 seconds and repeat 3x’s for now, those of you who have more upper body strength hold for a count of 15, we’re working our way to 5x’s @ 90 seconds, but that’s on down the line…while you’re out walking think about belly in, ta’s up, shoulders back and those 3 things you like about your face, hopefully one of them was your smile. Think about things you’re grateful for, if you can’t think of anything, focus on what Anonz/Ruth are doing for some desparate girls and be grateful that 1. it isn’t you living that hell and 2. that Anonz/Ruth are bringing it to a halt.
Have a groovin’ day, Zen Lill

Oh, love that joke, too. More leads, hahaha…! Oh man, this subject just makes me want to GO OFF hahaha…so much to say especially re: younger girls now, what up with the BJ’s and no reciprocity, wtf is that about?! YOung girls need some talking to, I’ll write my two here another time so mothers reading are not deluded enough to think it isn’t happening and that there isn’t still time to have several chats to clue them in on the when, the why and all that other important stuff you THINK you might’ve told them, probably um, once. It’s not a funny matter, grown women are feeling weird about talking sex with their girls. I’d like to assist in making that easier however I can, Mischa, will you please speak on the subect also when the mood strikes you? Thanks in advance : ) Luv, ZL

Hi Michelle, That title, “American Idol” has nothing specifically to do with the show of the same name. It has more to do with our true idol.
That being money, and it’s buying power for the latest, greatest gizmo’s that said money can buy.
Our mass media. Who without, you would not know what the latest and greatest gizmos are, have found that reality shows are relatively cheap to make and therefore more profitable for them.
Here is another you may have missed, (I put it up kind of late). This is a good one.
“Inequality Destroys Democracy”
The CEO of a British manufacturing firm makes on average eighteen times the salary of his/her average employee. In Germany the same CEO makes only thirteen times the average salary his/her corporation pays out. In the United States a CEO in the manufacturing industry makes on average four hundred and forty one times the salary of his/her average employee. This appalling discrepancy in earning power has consequences that stretch far further than simple economics. In a democracy, everyone’s voice has the same volume, and everyone’s opinion is given equal weight. In America this is decidedly untrue. Our society no longer works as simply as it once did, when a presidential hopeful would take a train across country speaking at the major cities along the way. Now is the time of mass media; television, radio, newspapers and magazines carry information from coast to coast and into people’s homes. These new media cost money, and only those with the most money can afford the exorbitant fees charged for a 30 second commercial spot on a national television syndicate. These peoples voices are magnified to thousands of times the volume and impact of the average American, and fed directly into the nation’s collective ears. The detrimental effect of this monetary magnification of opinion is especially apparent in politics. While there are myriad political parties, only two consistently manage to raise enough money to organize the massively expensive election campaigns used to promote their candidates. The other parties cannot advertise thusly, leading to enormously fewer votes and their continuing exclusion from the nationally televised presidential debates. In the same manner those wealthy individuals and corporations that can afford to donate millions of dollars to the campaign funds of the two main parties gain massive political sway with the members of said party. In this manner we receive our government as surely as if it were a dictatorship. A party empowered by its money, acting in the name of those who provided its funding. Capitalism at its finest.

I over heard a group at work discussing this hot LA babe giving exercise tips and talking trash to “smart ass men on a blog. I snooped around for a few days and I finally got the blog.
Zen Lill, you are not a disappointment. Michelle, you seem to be either a trial lawyer or assistant DA, venting through your blog. I’m not trying to call you out. I like your blog. I read back to Sept 9th, 2009.
Zen Lill
Reading your comments today brought back an interesting learning experience I had with my ex fiancee. I took her home early because she said that she had a headache. When we got there, she insisted that I return to the party. She said that she was going to go straight to bed and that she did not want me to miss out on the big party where the bonuses were being handed out.
I thought that this was the woman I had always looked for. At the time I had my eye on a beautiful brunette that I wanted to get back to. So I thanked her for understanding, asked if she were sure, and then hurried back to the party as soon as she insisted that I should.
I did feel bad at first, but she did say that she was going straight to bed so I got over it and headed back to the party to see if I could get lucky.
When I returned she was still there. She seemed upset about something. I wondered if she had seem me leave with D. Later I learned that her fiance was a partner of our firm and he had left to pick up some bonuses he had left at the office.
After a few dances and drinks, I convinced her that we should have one last fling before we tied the blissful wedding knots. She agree and we split for one of the rooms in the hotel where the party was being held.
We decided that the sex was so good that a return engagement was absolutely necessary. But we did return to the party in time to receive my bonus. As it turned out her fiance, my boss, had left two of the16 bonuses he intended to hand out back at the office. The two people were brought up and given a bottle of expensive champagne and told that they could pick up their bonuses the following Monday.
I returned home to my fiancee. She was sound asleep so I decided to take a shower before I went to bed. I decided to put my dress shirt in the laundry bin myself in case it had anything on it that might suggest what I had been up to.
As I picked it up from the sofa chair where I had placed it, I noticed two envelopes. When I examined them, I discovered they were the two missing bonuses that Larry had said he forgot to bring when he returned to the office for the bonuses.
Further examination revealed that someone had taken a shower and had used more than the number of towels that one would expect one person to use. At the time I did not feel the way I do after reading what you wrote today, Zen Lill.
I was so furious that I confronted her angrily and we broke up that night. That was six years ago. I did not tell S because I had other plans in mind. I made sure that S found me extremely necessary.
Our affair continued for five years into their marriage. They have 4 children, S says 2 are mine. I decided that it would be better if I left for the west coast. I have been working in Santa Barbara for about 6 months.
D wrote me a letter about a year ago. She said that Larry had been hitting on her for about two years before she allowed him to make love to her that night. She said she did it because he showed her how I was leering at his fiancee as everyone at the party was because she was the most beautiful thing in the room.
He convinced her to ask me to take her home and said that he would come by and talk. One thing led to another and she allowed him to make love to her. She asked me for my forgiveness. I called her back and told her that I forgave her and wished her the best in her up coming marriage.
What’s that song? “Who’s making love to your old lady, while you are out making love? Yes, Zen Lill, your point is well taken.
I have never fallen out of love with D. She wasn’t a virgin when I met her. I would have taken her back, if she would have answered my calls and if she hadn’t moved without leaving a forwarding address.

This might be something we who despise racism can do.
—————————————————–
We all know that cable news can be loud and annoying – like when Fox News host Glenn Beck called President Obama “a racist” with “a deeply seated hatred of white people.”1 But now that Beck’s character assassinations are beginning to impact the real world, things are getting dangerous and we need to act.
Last week, Beck claimed credit for getting Van Jones – a senior African American advisor to the President and our nation’s first Green Jobs czar – to resign.2 And he’s still on the warpath, spouting wild conspiracy theories and vitriolic attacks almost every night on his program.3
Nobody’s denying Beck’s right to free speech. But there need to be consequences for people like Beck who use the platform of cable news to destroy our ability to have a real debate about the environment, health care and the economy.
Fortunately, our friends at Color of Change have an answer. They’re hitting Beck and Fox News where it hurts – in their wallet. Color of Change already has cut Beck’s ad revenue in half. Sign their petition today, and force Fox to consider how much it’s worth to keep Beck’s poison on the air.
http://colorofchange.org/beck/hold/?rf=tm
So far more than 200,000 people have signed the petition asking advertisers not to support Beck. 62 corporations have listened and moved more than $500,000 worth of advertising away from his show.
In response, Beck got nastier. Lashing out at Green-Jobs Czar Van Jones, NEA official Yosi Sergant and others for being too liberal, too close to Obama or too ideologically impure.4 Beck has made it clear he’s determined to create an atmosphere in which the White House can accomplish nothing, and he’s doing it partly by launching vicious smear campaigns on Obama’s advisers.
But with Fox sacrificing more than half a million ad dollars a week to Beck’s vitriol, there’s a chance to turn this around. It’s a simple matter of supply and demand: If there’s no advertising demand for Beck’s show, the network will have to shut him down or shut him up to cover their costs. And in the process we’ll send an important message to the cable news networks that facts and tone still matter in reporting.
Sign the petition now to thank the advertisers who are standing up to Beck, and ask more to do the same.
——————————————————-
Tell his advertisers to “just say no” to hate!

I am falling in love with you. When I turn 18, I am coming to LA. My mother quotes you all the time. She tells my farther to go to hell a whole lot more now. I used to hate her whining about how difficult he was.
Now, I respect her attitude and we are getting along so much better. My three brothers are shocked that mom speaks such language. Yet they never made a peep when dad was cussing every day at the top of his lungs.
I will be 18 on the 5th of October. That’s when my trust fund kicks in. I will be telling these losers good bye. I asked mother if she will be going with me. She says she has been staying for me. I wish you could talk some sense into her.
She says that now she is going to stay just not with him. Why stay at all? I have so much respect for her now, but I can’t understand why she is staying in this disgusting place. We have more than enough money to leave and do well on our own.
Her name is Harriet. Write her Zen Lill. She also wants to become a Girlz. So she will do whatever you tell her Michelle. Tell her to head to LA with me. Las Vegas sucks!

My brother slept with my husbands sister and mother. Men are dogs. I came over one day to find them fighting like cats and dogs over him while he was sitting buck naked on the bed beating off.
You would think that he had enough sex. I have been blowing him since he was six years old. I didn’t do it because I wanted to. The little bastard blackmailed me. He caught me and my cousin Tiffany making love in her mother’s sun room. He said that if we didn’t suck him he would tell mom.
He has always been a creep. Tiffany told me that he was still blackmailing her. She said that he threatened to tell her husband about us if she didn’t have sex with him.
I told her to tell him to meet her at my house and we would both fuck him. The creep agreed. I got my husband’s brother and his boyfriend to take his ass and make him blow them while we filmed it. It’s a good thing we had it on film because before it was over he was fucking both of them and having too good a time at it.
Later when I threatened to show the tape to his wife, he said that the better move would be to sell him a copy so that he could blackmail my brother in-law by threatening to show it to his wife.
He is sick! But he guards his wife like she is gold. He never allows her to go out with the girls. When she leaves home she has to tell him where she is at all times and she has to be home when he tells her. I am so tempted to tell her what a dog he is.

Cant you screen some of this shit. My daughters read your blog. This is some x rated shit if ever there was xrated shit. Lacy what makes you think we care about you blowing your own brother?
My girls bath their brothers they dont need to be hearing you tell how you blow your sick brother.
You are just as sick. fucking your female cousin is a sin that will send you straight to Hell.
Jesus would piss in his pants if he knew what he died on the cross for. I raise god fearing children.
Howie, where are you?
you need to tell Michelle to clean up this blog. Screen the filty bastards out.
Decent folk are reading your blog Michelle.
By the way, you can screen some of Zen Lill’s shit too. Not the exercise part. My but could use some firming up. Not that youd know it the way my husband is always grabbin at it all the time.
Think about what Jesus would say the next time you are tempted to let some of this xrated shit in.

I can’t decide what’s worse. The racists or the misfits that are in need of God’s mercy. My congregation has spent almost a year perusing the blogosphere. There are blogs Michelle and then there is your blog.
You have enticed some of my flock into your fold(you know who you are). My wife says that she reads you on occasion to learn what abomination you are up lately. I demand that she stop visiting your blog. She says she has. But when I check I see that she has stopped in again.
The devil has your ear Michelle. Those of you reading this are most certainly heading for the fires of damnation if you do not repent.

BOOST BRAIN POWER… SAFELY, NATURALLY
A recent survey by the journal Nature found that one in five readers polled on-line — typically, scientists and those in academics who work in challenging fields including physics, biotechnology and other areas of medicine — had taken prescription stimulants such as methylphenidate (Ritalin) and amphetamine and dextroamphetamine (Adderall) to improve memory and concentration. Other research indicates that one in four college students take these pills, mostly for help focusing while they study. Of course, people have been using drugs of all kinds — including caffeine — to help them concentrate and/or stay awake in times of need, practically forever. However, these are pharmaceutical drugs that have been studied and approved for the treatment of people with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and can be assumed to have a modicum of safety if used as prescribed and properly monitored — but not for others who just want to be more focused and competitive. This kind of use is drug abuse and it is dangerous. In addition to troubling side effects such as difficulty sleeping, recreational use of prescription stimulants can potentially lead to heart problems and addiction.
Since everyone sometimes needs a bit of a boost in mental performance or alertness, I asked Mark Blumenthal, founder and executive director of the nonprofit American Botanical Council, and Patricia L. Gerbarg, MD, coauthor of The rhodiola Revolution and the upcoming How to Us Herbs, Nutrients and Yoga in Mental Health Care, for a rundown on botanical medicines and other dietary supplements that can be used — not abused — to enhance cognitive function.
GINKGO BILOBA
You’ve heard it before, I imagine, but one of the most widely used natural, brain-boosting remedies is the very popular Ginkgo biloba. It is believed that Ginkgo works by increasing blood flow to the brain. An impressive body of research attests to Ginkgo’s benefits, especially in older people with cognitive impairment such as dementia. There is also some evidence that Ginkgo biloba extract can improve memory and concentration in normal, healthy adults, though these findings are less conclusive. Note: Ginkgo may interact dangerously with blood-thinning drugs, such as aspirin or warfarin.

Blumenthal also recommends Bacopa monnieri — a creeping herb that commonly grows in marshy areas of countries such as India, Australia and in the tropics, and is traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine as a natural brain booster. This botanical medicine, commonly taken as an extract, possesses potent antioxidant properties that support concentration, learning and memory, and also helps reduce the negative effects of stress. Scientists theorize that it works by improving the efficiency of nerve function in the brain, particularly in the hippocampus — a key site of memory function. For optimal effectiveness, Bacopa monnieri is often combined with Ginkgo biloba.
RHODIOLA ROSEA
Dr. Gerbarg prescribes a variety of nutrients, vitamins and herbs to stimulate antioxidant activity, mitigate the negative impact of chronic stress on the brain, and generally improve cognitive function. One of the botanical medicines she most frequently prescribes is Rhodiola rosea, which she believes packs the most benefits and fewest side effects of the various herbal alternatives. This herb works on the cellular level by maximizing energy production and restocking energy reserves. It helps fight stress and aging… sharpen memory and cognitive function… enhance sexual function and physical performance… and protect against heart disease and bladder cancer.
B VITAMINS
Dr. Gerbarg notes that an adequate intake of B vitamins in general — and vitamin B-12 and folic acid (folate) in particular — are essential to optimal brain and nervous system function. For many Americans, poor dietary habits result in a functional deficiency of B vitamins, leading to symptoms such as a cloudy mind, poor memory and impaired concentration.
At your yearly check-up, ask your doctor to check your blood levels of B vitamins, particularly B-12. For B-12 levels in the low normal range, testing methylmalonic acid is a more sensitive early indicator. If it turns out that you are functionally deficient, your doctor may prescribe sublingual B-12 tablets. Dissolved under the tongue, B-12 is better absorbed than in the capsule form. The most effective forms of B-12 are hydroxycobalamin and methylcobalamin. B-12 should be taken once daily in addition to a multi-B supplement that also includes folate.
DHEA
The hormone DHEA is one of the markers of aging. A decrease in DHEA with the passing years may be associated with age-related cognitive decline and dementia. Dr. Gerbarg told me that she often tests DHEA and DHEAS levels in patients, such as a 60-year-old postmenopausal woman who recently came in complaining of mental fogginess and fatigue. If either is low, Dr. Gerbarg is likely to prescribe 7 KETO DHEA (a type of DHEA that she finds is more effective and causes fewer side effects). Individuals with a history of breast cancer or any hormone sensitive cancer are advised not to take DHEA. For more on DHEA, see Daily Health News.
OPTIMIZING COGNITIVE FUNCTION THE NATURAL WAY
It seems obvious to me, but I guess it bears repeating that taking good care of yourself — including getting plenty of exercise to promote circulatory health and sufficient sleep to support mental functioning — is the first step toward performance enhancement. If you still feel like you’d benefit from a boost, have your physician help you choose from the wealth of generally safe and natural treatments available to promote cognitive wellness. No single approach works for everyone, Dr. Gerbarg observes, but by working with a physician trained in the use of natural medicines and supplements, you’ll be able to fine-tune a treatment plan that will achieve optimal results for you. Use high-quality herbal products to attain the best results and minimize adverse reactions.

You let wilbur and some of those crazies in?
September 14th, 2009 at 11:30 pm
Hi, I’m back bc tomorrow I have a busy am so I’ll leave week 2 day 8 info for the women – I’ll be back tomorrow to comment more on the above, would like to hear Mischa the DA’s take on a few things first. Btw, Mischa, I sent you a private e earlier, maybe we can chat Tu/weds late aft?
But, arggh, Wilbur I don’t call women who fuck dogs, badumdum-P – but if I did I guess I’d call them: dog-fuckers.
So tomorrow…oh wait, a Q: in addition to what you are already doing, are you squeezing that G note between your butt cheeks at random intervals? How about those squeezy kegels? And are you visualizing that belly button meeting your spine? OK, now here’s a mat Pilates/yoga manuever – lying on your back, knees up, feet on floor, start rolling your vertabrae one by one up till you have your shoulders on the floor and your feet only, hold in that belly, hold up that ass and fire up those inner thighs (pretend your squeezing a small ball in between them) hold for 5 count and slowly lower, repeat this 5x’s, if you can, do it 10x’s, your buns and inner thighs should tingle a bit, you can do this before or after the long stretch (energy shooting out those toes and fingertips) and plank as many times as you can hang, then this exercise (in yoga it’s called ‘bridge’) and then go out for that walk, stop and do your calf exercises and have some fruit when you get back. Call your friends and telol them how good you feel.
I wanted to give you this quickie recipe also: I love this and it’s great for converting veggie haters : ) but if you don’t like pesto sauce well you’ll just have to settle for olive poil and salt/pepper and like it! So here’s what you do, this is a solo serving you can just multiply if you’re serving others. Steam brocoli florets for 5 minutes (crispy not hard) and make some (depends on servings needed) rotini (spiral pasta) or farfalle (bow ties) – toss the pasta with your favorite pesto sauce (I make it with basil, arugula, pine nuts and garlic) chop up the brocoli in small pieces and toss into pasta along with P sauce, then place 1/2 cup torn spinach leaves into the bottom of each bowl and toss in pasta/brocoli mixture, it’s so good, I’ve converted a few broc haters in my time (I chop it extra small when I know they hate it and no, I don’t tell them what’s in there) – this is a one cup serving of the pasta kids so don’t go getting crazy, use the leftovers for another day…
Women of this blog, good luck with day 8! – ZL

Hey guys Guam is representing at the car shows on the mainland. You on the mainland when you are in the area get out there and support your Island talent. I will give you a heads up in the future.

Guam representing: Former island residents place in top import show
BY MICHAEL FLORES • SEPTEMBER 15, 2009
Two former Guam residents took home top 5 finishes at the recent Nisei Week car competition in Los Angeles.
Editors from Import Tuner, Super Street, DSport, and Modified Magazine recognized the craftsmanship of Angelo Ilao, originally of Agana Heights, and Kevin Ganzon, placing the Guam boys and their respective rides ahead of dozens of other competitors in this much ballyhooed contest. Both represented Guam with various decals of Guam logos on their rides.
The auto competitions are part of LA’s Nisei Week — a nine-day Japanese festival now in its 69th year. Every mid-August, this festival highlights both Japanese and Japanese-American culture. The term Nisei refers to the children born to Japanese people in the new country.
Nisei college graduates came up with the idea of Nisei Week to lift the gray cloud of the Great Depression, by urging California-based Issei to cater their businesses more to Nisei patronage both in hiring and retail practice. Issei are the first generation Japanese, or those that immigrated to a new country. With the change in focus to help bring more of their brethren out of the doldrums, the festival in Little Tokyo has been a symbol of unity and pride in Los Angeles’ Japanese-American community.
With Japan having such a huge influence on the import scene, it was only natural that an auto show would become part of the festivities. The “Show Off Café” launched in 1999 and through the years has become one of LA’s hottest import car shows.
Guam Represents
Ilao and Ganzon were among the hundreds of enthusiasts that attended the show and among the select few whose rides were hot enough to qualify for competition.
“I decided to compete at this show because it’s known to be one of the hardest shows to compete in,” says Ilao, whose 2003 wide body carbon Nissan 350z was featured last month in Cruising.
Judges took into consideration the distinct details of a car and the overall theme in reflection to JDM standards. Because the “who’s who” of the West come out to compete and the high standards of the judges panel, the Show Off allows people to gauge the elite builds.
After finishing fourth, Ilao says he’s going to upgrade his Nismo version 3 front bumper before the end of the year.
At the Mega Matsuri, a new show added to the car competition, Ganzon took his 1995 Toyota Supra to a third place finish. The revamped 2JZ made it for the gates just in time and was a hot addition that helped his ride earn the bronze in the RWD class.
Ganzon will be having world class tuner, Justin Nenni of Tuning Concepts, fly in to tune his car next month and get it prepared for the Hot Import Nights show in Arizona.

I read this article about Serena Williams. It gives an intelligent analysis of what it means to be black and a woman in America.
==============================
Can anyone still recall the hazy afterglow following the presidential election — that orgy of premature self-congratulation about suddenly becoming a “post racial” society?
That prematurity was on full display the other night in the women’s semifinal match at the U.S. Open between Serena Williams and Kim Clijsters. Clijsters’s thrilling return to the women’s circuit was overshadowed by an intemperate outburst by Williams, who menacingly gestured to the line judge, who had just called a foot fault on a second serve which brought the game to match point. Williams exploded in a profanity laced-tirade. You don’t have to be a lip reader to see she yelled that she was going to shove that bright yellow tennis ball up the line judge’s butt.
Okay, let’s acknowledge that this was not Serena’s greatest moment, that she lost her temper — it was match point in the semi-finals, after all — and became both unhinged and enraged. And Serena is one big, strong woman. And a big strong black woman.
Those two last points, though, seem crucial. Serena’s outburst — and the rule-based, draconian penalty that cost her the match — were both racial and gendered. Let me be clear: I am not saying that the call was overtly, intentionally, racist or sexist. But the context for both the line judge’s reaction and the chair umpire’s call depended on Serena being a strong black woman.
Ask yourself this: would the line judge have felt so threatened had she been yelled at by perky, pretty little Melanie Oudin, all 5 foot 6 of her bouncy teenage self?
How about a white man? White men can express anger and outrage — indeed, they’re supposed to. It’s one of the few emotional men are allowed to express — and we express it often, and often without penalty. And sometimes we go even further. Don’t get mad, the saying goes, get even.
Hey, don’t take my word for it. See for yourself. One of the pleasures of the rainouts and rain delays that marred the end of the tournament schedule was that CBS and ESPN rebroadcast some “classic” matches from earlier eras, matches in which the ever-bratty Jimmy Connors’ rants and the once-bratty now elder statesman and superb TV commentator John McEnroe’s outbursts were greeted with whopping rallying cries and often supportive crowd reactions. Check it out here and here.
Line judges didn’t typically feel threatened by Marat Safin — and he’s 6 foot 4! (Safin broke 48 tennis racquets in 1999 alone.)
And watch Jimmy Connors in his famous 4th round match at the 1991 Open, when he twice explodes at the chair umpire (who seemed more bemused than afraid).
Note that Connors was not assessed any penalty, and went on to win the match. The crowd went wild.
Yes, Serena lost her temper, yelled and cursed at the line judge. Bad sportsmanship. Very bad. But the line judge said she felt her life had been threatened. (A charge Serena instantly and vehemently denied.)
Let’s face it: it’s different when black people get angry. Even black men. Being a 58-year-old Harvard professor with a cane didn’t protect Henry Louis Gates when he lost his cool. And Joe Wilson sure felt entitled to express his outrage at that uppity black guy — except that uppity black guy lecturing him happened to be the President. Being the Commander in Chief of the world’s most powerful military didn’t protect President Obama either.
Nor did being arguably the best female tennis player in the world protect Serena. She was a furious black woman with a weapon. Serena was neither ladylike nor did she “act white” and keep her cool.
The fans booed Serena, as they surely would have if President Obama had ever taken the bait and replied to relentless race-baiting in anything but an even-tempered, even-cadenced, tone. But make no mistake: those same fans found John McEnroe’s antics “cute” and Jimmy Connors’ constant tirades energizing, and plenty of other white male players just too tightly wound.
Memo to Gael Monfils, Jo-Wilifred Tsonga and James Blake: do not ever lose your temper. Ever. Memo to Venus Williams: double ditto.
America’s post-racialist glow only lasts as long as you stay more serene than Serena.

George your rages are needed on this blog. It keeps us on our toes. Otherwise when the undercover racists rear their heads we see them for what they pretend not to be.

I am a souther white woman. I read the article and the subsequent comments. It is a shame that the commenters race can be ascertained by their comments.
Most of the white commenters ignored the facts used by the author to back up his claims of over reaction by the tennis association.
They spent their time claiming as we hypocritical whites often do that they were just judging this situation on it own merits. Al the while rushing to condemn an action by a black much more severely than they ever would of a white person.
That they were being disingenuous is to put it mildly. They were being covertly(they think) racists.
I too thought about some tennis matches that I had seen white players act out in that weren’t addressed in anywhere near the way this one was.
It is truly tragic to be black and and american in your own country. The average white person will never know how lucky we are to white in america.

Whites justifying their opportunity to be bigots. That is what I get out of the over reaction of the tennis officials.
As a mexican american, I see it all the time.

We may rant at George. But the he was being truthful when he stated that whites would root for the white girl.
I used to hate it that Michelle allowed his racial hatred to be spewed on her blog. But now I see her wisdom.
She lets us see that some of the pretend non bias whites among us are the most diabolical racist ever. They would swat us like so many bugs.
Why worry about aliens from outer space making a meal of us when the real evil walks among us every day in sheep’s clothing.
I like this quote from “Waitaminute.”
—————————————-
I’d like the commentaters to act with decorum. Especially the American ones, including former American tennis players. Other then John McEnroe, I have failed to see one time, where American commentaters and sportcasters showed through their commentary, support for the William sisters during their matches. They alway seem to be rooting for the other player. Most times itS the foreign players. They even root for the foreign player when the matches are in the U.S..
At one time i admired these former tennis players. But since the William sisters, they disgust me. Especially some of the former female players.
———————————–
George would have seen it coming. He would have warned us in his racist way.
We would have reacted to his racial delivery. We would have missed the message he was delivering. That message is most of white america sees thing through a color spectrum.
For those whites who would argue otherwise. Try being asian in america for a week. I guarantee you you will hate white people.
The miracle is that I and most asians don’t. We are able to take your racism in stride.

FYI…I watched that match. That call was so dead wrong, that lineswoman would’ve had the ball up her ass if it were me and I did not think Serena overreacted she was po’d as she should have been. Lineswoman got intimidated bc she F’d up and probably knew it, that and Serena is one built babe. Was the call racist? Not sure but it was totally wrong, and match point so I did and do wonder what the helll she was thinking at the time. S did not go off anywhere near as much as MacEnroe in his day.
Ma Qin, excellent! I am so glad your digging the ZL program and that your hubbys customers like the recipe! Where exactly do you live?
