How Much Sex is Enough? 4 ways to check yourself Do we really want more sex? We may think we do, but when real life comes crashing in - sleep deprivation, work stress, and that uber-libido challenge of children in the next room - dreams of sweaty nights between the sheets, sadly, turn into to just that... dreams. For those of us who are between lovers, the anxiety can become downright torturous, looking for a partner high and low and asking yourself, when's the next time you'll have sex and how will it be?How much and who with is the eternal question. We debate it endlessly in our entertainment shows - Samantha versus Charlotte, Edie versus Bree and McDreamy versus McSteamy - do you need love to have great sex or can sex just be for sex sake? Let's look at four common attitudes about sex to see where you fall in this titillating debate! 1. Never say never... This attitude is great when you are on vacation. If you make a connection that leads to a late night rendezvous, sco

Should I Stay or Should I Go? When is it time to move on? You feel it - you've reached a crossroads in your long-term relationship. You have concerns - is he (or she) the right one, or is it time to say goodbye? It's a difficult question and faced with it, you're probably struggling to find the right answer. You love this person, the way you feel in their embrace is familiar. And yet something just doesn't feel right. Secretly you may even be planning a way out. You know the The Clash song (Darling you gotta let me know/Should I stay or should I go?), and there may be many reasons it's playing in your head. Let's start at the top of the list: Abuse, violence or the discovery of an affair. In any situation where you're compromised on this clear cut of a level, it's almost always a given - you should go. On the other hand, your problem could be less obvious. Perhaps what started as a fling is now something much deeper and you have to re-assess how you go

Eames Inspired Prosthetic Leg Those of you plugged into the post modern scene know the name Eames. The duo that brought us molded plywood in every shape and form is aped left and right by today’s designers. That aesthetic could be translated into almost anything as demonstrated by designer Joanna M. Hawley and her Prosthetic Leg concept. Most prosthethics are cumbersome looking, ugly, and lack humanity. This new leg starts by a 3D laser scan to generate a point cloud from which data is used to create an exact replica, only mirrored. The final product is a combination of art and science designed to function and inspire.

Too Much Information Survival tips for the dating game Today it is harder than ever to get to know someone, and the problem is not a lack of information! We are overloaded with input from everywhere - especially if you Google someone before you even meet them or read their MySpace or Facebook pages. By the time you sit down for your first latte you know their likes and dislikes, favorite hot spots, how they spend their leisure time and depending on the site you use, how many children they want to have "someday." This is way more than you would have known even five years ago after months of dating. But what does all this information really add up to? How do you build intimacy when everything's already on the table? Check mate We've gone from light talking over a root beer float to interactive compatibility charts and it hasn't made the dating world any easier. In fact, it's caused a new obstacle - our minds are shutting our hearts down. We think that love is

This camera is Outta Sight! I will admit, upon first reading and laying eyes on this design I almost laughed out loud. Not because of the design, but for its intended purpose. Designer Chueh Lee over at Samsung China has designed what may be the worlds first camera for the blind, the “Touch Sight”. Yup, you read me right…a camera for the blind. Chueh actually makes a good argument for such a design. Chueh notes: “Touch Sight is a revolutionary digital camera designed for visually impaired people. Simple features make it easy to use, including a unique feature which records sound for three seconds after pressing the shutter button. The user can then use the sound as reference when reviewing and managing the photos. Touch Sight does not have an LCD but instead has a lightweight, flexible Braille display sheet which displays a 3D image by embossing the surface, allowing the user to touch their photo. The sound file and picture document combine to become a touchable photo that is saved i

A Piece of Olympic Fever The 2008 Olympics in Beijing are arguably the best Olympics in recent history. If you’re just dying for a piece of the action, why not a memento that looks right at home in the festivities. This lacquered red clock looks likes a traditional Chinese talisman with each hour on the face represented by one of the 12 major Olympic sports.

The Third Space If you thought China’s opening ceremony was impressive for its scale and teamwork then spare a thought for the 52 German design students who were handed the knee weakening task of creating a temporary 200sqm world that tries to translate sociological terms like self-portrayal, community and retreat into tangible spatial situations. As impressive as it is, the real treat is in the details. The entire space was created by lashing together almost 1.3 million cable ties. The result is nothing short of amazing. Visitors are invited to explore the surreal landscape of cocoons, webs and light called “The Third Space” that took a staggering 16,870 hours to complete.

When You Stray... Don't let it wreck you Cheating tends to be a very touchy subject, one in which most people have very firm theories and convictions. It is so easy in hypothetical conversation to make claims of what you would or wouldn't do, but when the hypothetical becomes reality, the rules often change. I did it There are many reasons why people stray from their committed relationships, and often times the reason for straying is used as a justification for betraying the one you love or have committed yourself to. Whatever your reasons, your justifications, your needs or excuse - nothing changes the fact that you have broken your word, and this is typically when a case of the "guilties" settles in. The guilt Even people who are trapped in the worst relationship a mind can dream up often find themselves weighed down with guilt for the moments of joy and pleasure that they find in the arms of another lover. It's a natural reaction, because regardless of ho
