![]() The trend continued in much of Europe, with the establishment of many clothing-optional areas in parks and on beaches. ![]() Women reasserted the right to uncover their breasts in public, which had been the norm until the 17th century. In the 1960s naturism moved from being a small subculture to part of a general rejection of restrictions on the body. Freikörperkultur ('free body culture') represented a return to nature and the elimination of shame. Philosophically based movements, particularly in Germany, opposed the rise of industrialization. Acceptance of public nudity re-emerged in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. While the upper classes had turned clothing into fashion, those who could not afford otherwise continued to swim or bathe openly in natural bodies of water or frequent communal baths through the 19th century. However, in Japan, mixed-gender communal bathing was quite normal and commonplace until the Meiji Restoration. In Asia, public nudity has been viewed as a violation of social propriety rather than sin embarrassing rather than shameful. Although rediscovery of Greek ideals in the Renaissance restored the nude to symbolic meaning in art, by the Victorian era, public nakedness was considered obscene. In the Western world, with the spread of Christianity, any positive associations with nudity were replaced with concepts of sin and shame. In ancient Rome, complete nudity could be a public disgrace, though it could be seen at the public baths or in erotic art. In ancient Greece, nudity became associated with the perfection of the gods. In modern societies, complete nudity in public became increasingly rare as nakedness became associated with lower status, but the mild Mediterranean climate allowed for a minimum of clothing, and in a number of ancient cultures, the athletic and/or cultist nudity of men and boys was a natural concept. The skills used in their making were later found to be practical as well. The first use of animal skins and cloth may have been as adornment, along with body modification, body painting, and jewelry, invented first for other purposes, such as magic, decoration, cult, or prestige. The need to cover the body is associated with human migration out of the tropics into climates where clothes were needed as protection from sun, heat, and dust in the Middle East or from cold and rain in Europe and Asia. Nudity (or near-complete nudity) has traditionally been the social norm for both men and women in hunter-gatherer cultures in warm climates, and it is still common among many indigenous peoples. The use of clothing to cover the body is one of the changes that mark the end of the Neolithic, and the beginning of civilizations. ![]() The history of nudity involves social attitudes to nakedness of the human body in different cultures in history.

![]() People are attracted to taboos for a variety of reasons, including sometimes life experience, but certainly many are, as you put it, turned on by the naughtiness and transgression. Fantasies aren’t necessarily a means they are an end. In this scenario, watching becomes its own kind of play that requires a suspension of disbelief because the disbelief is built right into the viewing experience.įantasies themselves can be safe spaces to explore things we wouldn’t otherwise be comfortable with actually participating in. ![]() That’s to say that the vast majority of viewers know that they’re not watching actual family members and that no one involved is under 18 because of regulations on porn production. Part of the draw of this kind of porn is the fantasy, but it’s also the safety by which said fantasy can be explored. Studies about porn’s influence on sexual violence have yielded conflicting results (I dove into it a bit in this previous column), but it’s important to keep in mind that things like incest and rape have been around long before porn. There simply aren’t enough studies for us to draw firm conclusions about whether incest porn leads to actual incest, but my hunch is that it largely doesn’t. It’s surely impossible to say just how much of a hand popular culture has in shaping culture culture, especially when it comes to something as underreported as abuse. ![]() Am I contributing to a culture of abuse by sometimes getting off to an adult “teenage son” stumbling upon his hot, horny “mom” trapped in the dryer? (She insisted she was not an abuse victim herself, though, and that it’s just something she feels strongly about.) I didn’t know what to say. My friend says incest is much more common than most people think and that porn normalizes it. I said that statistically, of course, some viewers are people with genuine incest fantasies about real-life family members, but that those people are a tiny fraction of the population and that “step” porn isn’t making mentally healthy people want to have sex with their parents or siblings. (I was not.) My contention was that I wasn’t a deviant (again, these videos are obviously being watched by millions of people) and that people who watch this kind of porn are not really into incest, but turned on by the naughtiness and transgression. She basically said she thought I might need therapy and probed me about whether I’d been sexually abused as a child. I mentioned that I sometimes found the “stepfamily” videos that are all over every porn site pretty hot. It’s anonymous!Ĭan you please settle an argument between my friend and me (both 21F)?

Low-input RNA-Seq: Accommodates limited amounts of total RNA in the range of 5-100 ng.Can accommodate degraded RNA, such as those extracted from FFPE or laser capture microdissected samples. Targets both protein-coding genes and long noncoding RNAs. Total RNA-Seq: Starts with 100 ng to 1 ug total RNA.Aims to identify differentially expressed protein-coding genes. Prepares library from poly-A enriched mRNA species. mRNA-Seq: Starts with 100 ng to 1 ug high quality total RNA.NUSeq provides six types of RNA-seq services as detailed below: The more transcriptionally active a genomic region is, the more copies of RNA transcripts it produces, and the more RNA-Seq reads it generates. The total number of reads mapped to a particular genomic region represents the level of transcriptional activity in the region. After sequencing, the generated reads are mapped to the reference genome to identify their genomic origin. The libraries are then sequenced to generate millions of reads for each sample. RNA species need to undergo a sequencing library preparatory process prior to sequencing. This technology directly sequences RNA molecules in the transcriptome in order to determine their genes of origin and abundance. RNA sequencing, or RNA-Seq, is the latest technology to study the transcriptome, i.e., the full set of RNA transcripts as genome readouts in a cell or population of cells.

TypingMaster has nine different courses that will satisfy your changing needs as your skills and speed improve. Typing Master 11 is a powerful typing tutor that will help you improve your typing substantially whether you are a novice or a professional typist. What course is best for learning to type faster? Little by little you become faster and more accurate typist. Repetition and continuous practice make you a master. Then the exercises move on to longer words, sentences, and text drills. This key is first practiced on its own and in small words containing the letters that have been taught so far. Most keyboarding programs are designed so that they first introduce a new key. How to practice keyboarding with all fingers? Work-related injuries such as tension in the neck and shoulder area, which are common problems for people working in front of a computer, can be avoided by following some simple ergonomic guidelines. Good ergonomic practice helps to avoid physical discomfort that may accompany prolonged static postures and repetitive motions. Ergonomics is a very important part of keyboarding. ![]() Knowing the right touch-type technique and posture will also help to avoid discomfort. ![]() It will make you a more efficient worker as you will be able to type faster and more correctly. As everyone has to learn to type at some point, so why not learn this basic computing skill properly today? Knowing the right touch-type technique is useful for everyone. It is desirable that the typist does not think about his finger placement or the location of the letters as he types. Most people today use computers not only at work but also at home. ![]() ![]() The 15-year fixed rate averaged 6.07%, 11 basis points lower than last week. The 30-year fixed rate averaged 6.71%, 8 basis points lower than last week. Don’t be surprised if that number doubles as the Board of Equalization will soon release another year of 55-and-over property tax transfer numbers. California’s fiscal year runs from July 1 through June 30 of the following year. So far, 23,089 homeowners who meet that qualification have cashed in on this property tax advantage, according to data provided by the California State Board of Equalization. 19 allows homeowners across California to transfer their existing, lower property taxes to a new primary residence. This of course assumes there would ever be enough signatures to get an initiative on a statewide ballot.Ĭircling back to last week, I wrote about how the property transfer tax was seen was a “godsend” for those aged 55 and older. My advice? California voters should dig a hole and bury the death tax by voting to rescind that portion of the proposition. You can read more about the efforts at .įor the record, I am vehemently against the death tax portion of Prop. “Proposition 19 took that away and replaced it with the largest property tax increase in California history,” the association’s president John Coupal wrote. 58, which was approved by voters in 1986 and excluded a parent-child property transfer from a tax reassessment. The Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association said it is planning to file an initiative with the California Attorney General’s Office to restore Prop. I do not believe 19 would have passed if the family inheritance reduction was understood by voters.” 19 did not discuss this component, and over the past two years, I have learned that it is clear that the public was unaware of this provision. “However, I believe the public wasn’t informed about the trade-off that reduced family inheritance benefits in order to expand benefits for seniors. 19 for seniors, the disabled and the victims of natural disasters,” said Jeffrey Prang, Los Angeles County Assessor. 19 and the consequences for families trying to pass on generational wealth built up through investment properties. How did the death tax wiggle past voters? Many people I spoke with said they believed voters were not clear-eyed about certain portions of Prop. With the $1 million deduction in assessed value, the best-case scenario is the tax bill rises from the parent’s tax bill of $3,000 to the new tax on a $1 million home of about $12,000. The child inherits a $2,000 monthly tax burden and must make decisions - sell the house or move in. The day they die, that home gets reassessed at the market value of $2 million and the tax bill jumps to $25,000. If your parents bought a home in the 1960s, now assessed at $300,000 due to Prop 13., the property taxes are $3,000. 13 property tax of the parent (or grandparent) can be transferred to the heir. If the home is inherited by children, they can apply for a $1 million parent/child exemption as long as they move into it within one year and continuously use it as their primary residence.* The fixed Prop. 16, 2021, all real property including residential and commercial rentals and second homes will be reassessed at current property tax values when the properties of the last surviving parent or grandparents are passed down to children. 19’s death tax for certain inherited properties:Įffective Feb. My mistake was failing to mention in last week’s column something I did highlight in the previous one: How LLCs can protect heirs from property tax reassessments under Prop. My apologies to every loyal reader I offended. They were furiously unhappy about my June 4 column, which shared one of the benefits of Proposition 19, calling its base property tax transfer a ‘godsend’ for Southern California seniors. Property tax is a red-hot third rail in California, and I certainly felt its burn last week as readers lambasted me with a torrent of angry emails and phone calls.

Hades may not seem particularly remarkable at first glance, but its quiet innovation is one of the best surprises of the year and while technically it is yet another indie roguelike it’s one of the best of the generation. Product dimensions : 10 x 1 x 17 cm 58.97 Grams. That aside this is one of the most forward-thinking roguelikes of recent years, that not only gets the meat and potatoes of combat and exploration right but, with the interwoven narrative, adds a new ingredient you never would’ve imagined would work so well. It also has to be said that this is not something that’s very well suited to playing in handheld mode, as the graphics already seem small on a TV and the action can be difficult to read on just the Switch’s small screen. The winner this year was Hades from SuperGiant Games, which was a critical and commercial hit on Switch / PC in 2020, before achieving success this year on PlayStation and Xbox platforms.

(The game’s use of Greek myths is excellent throughout and far more interesting than the simplistic clichés found in most other games, as Hades captures not only the petty callousness of the ancient gods but also their very human motivations.) Each god offers a different style of benefit but you can’t have them all, which often ends up offending whoever’s help you decline – which can cause a lot of trouble when it ends up being used against you.

It’s is like a gift for the various non-playable characters in Hades. You quickly build up a wide variety of different moves and buffs, that at first you’ll just pick and choose largely at random, before subsequent runs reveal how they can all work together to make you considerably more powerful than with a less optimised set-up. ![]() You need all three to stay healthy, but each person needs a different amount. All food is made up of three main nutrients: carbohydrates, protein and fat. When purchasing packaged food, the term “total carbohydrate” refers to all three of these types. You’re not alone!Ĭarbs come in many different forms, but the main three are starch, fiber, and sugar. ![]() You might be wondering if you should eat less of them, or even eat them at all. Why Is Calculating Net Carbs Important?Ĭalculating and tracking net carbs is important for those following the keto diet because consuming too many digestible carbs can prevent you from entering and/or kick you out of ketosis.Carbohydrates or “carbs” get a lot of attention these days and it’s no secret that carbs can affect your blood glucose (blood sugar). What’s more, zero-calorie sweeteners like monk fruit and stevia do not contain carbs and therefore do not have an effect on blood sugar levels or contribute to net carbs, says Martin. The other sugar alcohols like maltitol might be found in sugar-free or reduced-sugar versions of candies, chocolates, and ice creams. Most keto product manufacturers are aware that all of this is a lot of work and therefore use only erythritol in their products. “For example, if there were 4 grams of maltitol instead of erythritol in the above equation, you would only subtract 2,” she explains. ![]() So, you would only subtract half of their amount from the sugar alcohol equation,” says Martin. “Maltitol, sorbitol, isomalt, and glycerin contribute about half a gram carbs per gram. Of note: Some sugar alcohols do count towards net carbs. For example, a food product with 20 grams total carbs, 3 grams fiber, and 4 grams erythritol would contain 13 grams net carbs,” Martin says. ![]() “To calculate net carbs for a product containing erythritol, simply subtract the grams fiber and erythritol from the number of total carbs. So … How Do You Calculate Net Carbs?įirst, subtract all grams of fiber from the total grams of carbohydrates. You can also subtract grams of sugar alcohols, glycerine and allulose, as they do not provide many calories but are counted in the total carbohydrate total on the label.Īs for sugar alcohols in particular, these guys act somewhat like a fiber and are incompletely absorbed and metabolized by the body, so they have little effect on blood sugar levels (yet some do more so than others), adds Martin. “Since fiber is (mostly) undigestible, subtracting the fiber grams from total carbohydrates will provide the amount of 'net carbs' or the digestible amount of carbohydrate in the food,” Harris-Pincus says. “The idea behind net carbs is that all carbohydrates are not treated equally by the body,” says Lauren Harris-Pincus, M.S., R.D.N., author of The Protein-Packed Breakfast Club. So what about the carbs beyond net carbs? So where net carbs go after you've consumed them depends on your overall diet and activity levels. If you've consumed too many net carbs and are inactive, those carbs will go toward your fat stores, which may be used for energy later. If your body needs energy in that moment-say, if you're on a long-distance run and gulp down a gel pack-those carbs will replenish your glycogen stores. Your body converts these net carbs in two ways-stored as glycogen for energy or stored as fat. These digestible carbs are sugars and starches,” says Charlotte Martin, M.S., R.D.N. “It’s essentially the amount of carbohydrate that will have an effect on blood sugar levels. The term "net carbs" simply means the amount of carbohydrates in a food that your body can digest and use for energy.
