Future Fashion Designer?

Aug 28 2007 002_edit, originally uploaded by alien0103.

So here's Hannah wearing a typical "Hannah outfit." She decided this morning that she wanted to wear that red dress. But she didn't want it to be a dress -- she wanted it to be a skirt. No problem. She just took the top down and had me clip the dress at her waist using a typical office binder clip. LOL!

Then she put on the pink Hawaiian shirt so she could match the identical one on her doll. (They were Grace and Hannah's shirts 3 years ago when they were younger.) Throw on a pair of Crocs and a bracelet worn as an anklet and we're in business. Sweet.

What happens if an attacker compromises your root private key?

SSL certificates are used to authenticate clients and servers and to provide a means of securely sharing a secret key which is then used to encrypt communication between the server and client.

In order to do this, you have to have a level of trust in the body which issues the certificates; the Certification Authority or CA.

The way this works in practice is that you place the Root Certificate of the Certification Authority in your ‘Trusted Root Certification Authorities’ store on your computer. This says ‘I trust all certificates signed by the private key associated with this certificate’. Since the private key is only known by the Certification Authority, any certificate signed with the key must have been issued by the authority, and passed all the checks as defined in their CPS (Certification Practice Statement).

Once the infrastructure is in place, the flow is as follows:

SSL flow

Over complicated diagram showing keys and certificates.

  1. The client connects to the web server and requests a secure connection.
  2. The web server sends its certificate which includes a public key.
  3. The client verifies the certificate by checking the name matches the site name, that it has not expired (or been revoked) and that it is signed by a trusted authority.
  4. The client chooses a symmetric encryption key and encrypts it with the public key from the certificate. This is sent to the server
  5. The server decrypts the message with its private key. The browser and web server now share a symmetric key which is unknown to anyone else. This key is used to encrypt all communication for the rest of the session.

The security of the above transaction relies on the private key being stored securely by the web server. If someone had access to that key, they could decrypt the message containing the secret symmetric session key and therefor read all the encrypted messages which follow during that session. However, its unlikely that the owner of the web server would allow the key to leave the server. If an attacker managed to compromise the server to such an extent that he had access to the key, he would have full control of the server and would be able to access the communication anyway. If a government requested the key through legal means, they would be able to read all the communication but, again, they would get much more information by just requesting full access to the server.

So everything is nice and safe as long as the private key is kept secure. (There are, of course, other problems if, for example, there is malware on either end, but I’m ignoring that here).

So, what happens if someone gets access to the Certification Authority’s Private Key either by compromising their key store or by demanding it via legal channels?

Having the root private key would still not allow the attacker to intercept the symmetric key as it is encrypted using the public/private keypair generated by the web server, and the private key is still only known by the web server. It would, however, allow the attacker to create his own certificate and sign it with the Root CA private key. This would mean that it is trusted by the client computer and it would be very difficult to tell it apart from the genuine server certificate.

The attacker can now perform a ‘Man-in-the-middle’ (MITM) attack to capture all the traffic between the client and server. He does this by posing as the web server and authenticating with the client. The client now sends the symmetric key to the attacker encrypted with the attacker’s public key. The attacker decrypts the key and sets up a secure connection with the client. At the same time, the attacker connects to the genuine site and poses as the client. The attacker acts as a proxy between the client and server and can read both sides of the communication. Further, the attacker can change the information from either side. Say, for example, you think you are connected to your bank and you check your balance. The attacker can report the correct balance, but in the background could transfer all your money into his own account. If he needs any extra passwords, or a two-factor authentication, he can prompt you for those details and, if its convincing enough, you may be fooled into providing what he needs.

I’m sure you’ve seen reports in the news recently of all the online services which have been hacked causing their users’ passwords to be exposed. Assuming the website has followed best practice and only stored password hashes, this shouldn’t be a big deal as it will take the hackers some time to decode the password and in that time you can log on and change your password. However, a lot of people will use the same password on multiple services. This means that, if a hacker gets access to one password, he may be able to log into lots of other services using your account.

The Security industry is constantly reminding people not to use the same password for multiple services, but this is an almost impossible task. I recently spent a couple of days tracking down all my online accounts and setting secure passwords on all of them – I found 78 different accounts – there is no way I could remember 78 unique passwords without some sort of reminder.

A few years ago I came up with one solution, but I think I now have a better one.

My original solution was to come up with a password which I would be able to remember – I used a line from a book, taking the first letter of each letter to make up the password.

For example, if I chose the line “It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen.”, my password would be IwabcdiA,atcws13. That’s not a bad starting point as it’s easily memorable, 17 characters long, it has upper and lower case letters, numbers and symbols. But, we now need some way to make it unique to each site.

I added the consonants from the site name to the middle of the password. For example, would become “Ggl” and my password would be IwabcdiA,Gglatcws13. My twitter password would be IwabcdiA,Twttratcws13.The problem with this system is that an attacker who finds one of your passwords might recognise the string “Twttr” as being related to Twitter and be able to guess your other passwords.

I realised that it would be more secure to have completely unique passwords for every site, and tried to find a way of performing some sort of hashing algorithm on the domain name with and appended salt mentally to produce a unique password. It turns out this is pretty difficult to do. I came up with the following system which will allow you to work out your password with a pen and paper – I think this is better than having your passwords written down, and does not rely on having access to a password manager (although I have a solution to that too!)

Ok, bare with me – this gets a bit complicated, but after you have done it a couple of times it becomes easier.

I’m not a cryptographer, so I can’t vouch for this being at all secure, use it at your own risk. In my opinion, though, it must be more secure than using the same password in multiple places.

  1. Firstly, choose a secret number, say 5 numbers long. I’ll use 35187 as an example – this is used for every password
  2. Next, take the domain name –
  3. Use RotX on each of the numbers where X is a digit of your secret number. RotX just means to count X letters through the alphabet from your starting letter. So, C Rot5 would become H (count in your head “C,d,e,f,g,H”) We will change our domain name e+3, x+5, a+1, m+8, p+7 (then repeat your number as necessary) l+3, e+5, .+1 (I’ll come back to the dot in a second), c+ 8, o+7, m+3
  4. We now have hcbuwoj.kvp
  5. Where there is punctuation, count the number of characters before the symbol and use [shift]+number to create a symbol. In this case, hcbuwoj has 7 characters, and [shift]+7 gives an & symbol.
  6. We now have hcbuwoj&kvp
  7. Transpose (swap) each pair of characters – this becomes chubow&jvkp
  8. Capitalise all characters which are on the left side of the keyboard – this becomes ChuBoW&jkp
  9. Before each group of capital letters, enter the number of preceding lower case letters – we now have 0Chu2Bo1W&jkp
  10. Before each number insert [shift]+[n+1], that is, increase the number by one and insert the symbol which you get by typing shift and the number. On a UK keyboard, this gives !0Chu£2Bo”1W&jkp which is your final password.

You can, of course, come up with your own set of steps and customise to suit your own taste. The idea is to come up with a password which looks as random as possible and does not obviously relate to the original domain name.

This system may be useful where you are travelling across borders and do not want to transport passwords which could be intercepted by the authorities.

You can make some changes to the above steps to speed up the generation process – for example step 8 can be done at the same time as step 3.

Do you have any better systems, or see any holes in the system? Let me know in the comments!

Recently, there has been a spate of websites being hacked and passwords being exposed.

Although I do use unique passwords on all sites they all followed a rule which meant that, if one password was exposed, it wouldn’t take a genius to work out the others. I know that a lot of people use the same password for multiple online accounts. And who can blame them, I have found I have 59 different accounts (that I know of!) – who can remember that many unique passwords?

I decided it was time to come up with a better system. I wasn’t interested storing the passwords on my computer as I wouldn’t have access to them on my phone, or at work, or if I was using a friend’s computer.

I considered writing them down and carrying them in my wallet as has been suggested previously by Bruce Schneier, but I didn’t want to face the mad dash to change my passwords if I ever lost my wallet.

I came up with a system which will give you a secure(?) password for every site, but it has drawbacks. I may post the method later.

I did some research and found that it is possible to use a password manager and share the database via Dropbox which makes it available on all your computers and on your mobile phone. Problem solved!

Here are the steps you will need to follow to set it up for yourself.

  • Sign up for a Dropbox account and install the client on your desktop computer. If you use this link, we both get some extra free space and I will be forever thankful to you Smile
  • Download KeePass from It is available for Windows, Mac and Linux. I suggest you download the Classic Edition rather than the Professional Edition as it will allow you to write passwords on your mobile (The professional edition will only allow read access from your phone)
  • Install KeePass, following the wizard and run it when complete.
  • Create a new database in KeePass by choosing File > New
  • Choose a strong password as the master password – this will be the only password you need to remember.
  • Repeat the password when prompted.
  • You should now see the main KeePass window with categories under which you can save passwords.
  • See the excellent Keepass FAQ for details on how to enter and generate secure passwords (it’s easy)

  • Save the database to your local Dropbox folder.

  • Close the desktop client.
  • Download the Dropbox app for your phone and install it – enter the details you used when signing up for your dropbox account.
  • Download the appropriate client for your mobile phone. I use Android, so downloaded KeePassDroid.
  • Open the mobile Dropbox client and you should see the .kdb – click on it and it will open in KeePass.
  • Enter the secure password you set up earlier and click ‘OK’
  • You will now see the General group – click on it and you will see the same sub-groups which you saw in the desktop client. Once you have stored your passwords, you will be able to access them under the appropriate group.

So, now all my passwords are secure, how do I use them on my phone?

  • Open the General group, then the Internet sub-group – you will see all your website logins.
  • Click the site you want to access.
  • In the notifications bar at the top of the screen, you will see two new entries with padlock symbols next to them: Copy username to clipboard and Copy password to clipboard
  • Click the URL of the site and navigate to the login screen
  • Choose ‘Copy username to clipboard’ from your notification area and paste it into the Username field on the Website
  • Choose ‘Copy password to clipboard’ from your notification area and paste it into the Password field on the Website
  • Click ‘Login’ – you are in the site without having to memorise your password!

Now, go and change all your passwords choosing secure, unique passwords and store them in your password manager. If a hacker gets one of your passwords, your other accounts will still be safe, and if you choose complex enough passwords, the hacker may not even be able to get your password at all if they are stored as hashes by the website.

If you’ve found this useful, please sign up to Dropbox using my link so we both get some extra free space! Thanks!

What is an SSL certificate?
At its most basic level, an SSL certificate is used to encrypt electronic communication, to authenticate users or devices, and to sign electronic communication. There are various types of SSL certificate – Web Server certificates, Email certificates, code signing certificates etc.
Here, I will describe the process of creating a new SSL certificate for use on a website as this is the most common use for certificates. At some point, I may write further guides describing different types too.

What are the components of an SSL certificate?
SSL certificates contain a number of pieces of information:
Subject – the name of the entity being identified by the certificate.
Private key – never seen by the client.
Public key – associated with the private key.
Issuer – the name of the Certification Authority who has signed the certificate.
Serial number – a unique identifier for the certificate
Validity period – the start and end dates between which the certificate can be considered valid.
Usage – a description of what the associated public/private  key pair can be used for.
Digital Signature – the signature of the issuer.

The certificate uses Public Key cryptography to encrypt, sign and authenticate.
The private key is known only to the owner of the certificate. A piece of information encrypted with this key can only be decrypted by the associated public key.

How do we communicate securely?
Let’s assume a situation where I want to communicate securely with you. I make a connection to your web server and request your certificate. Your server supplies the certificate which contains your public key. I generate a master key which we will both use to encrypt our communication. I encrypt the master key with your public key and send it to you. You are the only person who can decrypt the master key as you are the only person who knows your private key.

We have now securely exchanged a master key without anyone else being able to know it and can communicate securely.

What is signing?
In the same way you can sign a letter to ‘prove’ that it was written by you (assuming no one is capable of forging your signature), you can digitally sign an electronic communication to prove it was created by you – this also confirms that the content has not been changed since you signed it (and means you can’t deny the document was created by you)
When you digitally sign a document, you hash the content and encrypt the hash value with your private key. This is then sent with your certificate and the document. When I receive the signed document, I can decrypt the hash using your public key from the certificate. I then hash the document myself and confirm the two hashes match.

But, how do I know you are you?
Communicating securely is fine, but how do I know you are who you claim to be and not someone pretending to be you?
Public Key Cryptography to the rescue again!
When you create a certificate, you can have it signed by a Certification Authority (CA) – they will do some checks to confirm your identity; generally by doing a WHOIS search against your domain name and verifying your name and address.
Once they have established that you own the domain for which you are creating the certificate, they will digitally sign the certificate for you. This means they are vouching for your identity.
Every web browser comes with a list of CAs which it trusts – there are hundreds of them. When I receive your certificate, I check who it was issued by. If it was issued by a CA which I trust, I am able to confirm that it is signed by them and I know that I can trust the certificate.

Great, how do I create a web certificate then?
The high level steps to create a certificate signed by a CA are:
Create a public/private key pair.
Send the public key and certificate info to a trusted CA
The CA creates and signs a certificate which contains your domain name and private key.
You install the certificate on your web sever where it is associated with the private key.

Creating the key pair.
I will use the Microsoft IIS web sever as an example because I am most familiar with it. Other web severs use similar steps.
IIS has a wizard to step you through creating a certificate…
In IIS, right-click on your website and choose ‘properties’.
On the Directory Security tab, click the Server Certificate button this will open the wizard.
Choose ‘Create a new certificate’ then ‘Prepare the request now, but send it later’.
Enter the details as you are prompted for them and, at the end, save the certificate request somewhere you can find it.

You have now created the keypair and prepared a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) ready to submit to your favorite Certification Authority.
The CSR is a block of text which is uploaded to the CA as part of the enrolment process. Once enrolment is complete, the CA will provide you with your new certificate – either as some text displayed on screen or as a file in an email. Either way, it should be saved as a file on your web server.

Installing to certificate
Back in the certificate wizard in IIS, choose ‘Process the pending request’
Choose the file supplied by your CA and follow the wizard to install your certificate.

The certificate should now be served when you visit the website in your browser on port 443. (https://)
You should probably make a secure backup of the certificate now by exporting it from the certificates snap-in.

For Apache servers, the CSR is created using the OpenSSL software – there are plenty of guides online.

P2E safe

Burg Wächter P2E safe

I have recently purchased a free-standing home safe from Burg Wächter (sometimes spelt Burg Waechter). The Pointsafe range comes in four sizes P1, P2, P3 and P4 and is available with an electronic pad lock or a key. I bought the electronic P2E version. The electronic version comes with two ‘override’ keys in case you forget the combination. Remember to store these keys securely, but not in your safe!

The safe is rated for £1000 cash or £10000 jewellery, so is not a high security safe but sounds about right for the things I would store in a home safe (passport and other documents, a small amount of emergency cash and a backup of my photographs on disk). The P2E version has single skinned walls (3.5mm steel) and a double skinned door. There is an internal metal shelf, and the floor is felt-lined. The back and floor each have two holes for fixing the safe to a wall or floor with the supplied bolts, plastic blanking cover the holes at the back.  The door seems solid, with two locking bolts which extend 16mm when locked. The door hinge is visible at the bottom of the door – this may be a weakness. The external dimensions of the safe are 255(h)x350(w)x300(d), internally they are 248(h)x343(w)x241(d). The volume is 20.5l and the safe weighs 16.5Kg. The safe is large enough for A4 paper with a little room to spare, but you will have to bend it to fit it through the door.

The keypad is responsive and makes a quiet beep when you press the buttons. The single line LCD display is not backlit so can be difficult to read, but you really don’t need to read it when opening or closing the safe. When not in use, the display shows the current time.

The bolts are driven by an internal motor rather than by turning a handle on the front – this should make the safe less susceptible to opening by ‘bumping’. After entering the correct code, the spring-loaded door swings open automatically.

The batteries (4xAA) are accessible from the outside of the safe, and the emergency keyhole is located behind them. The keys are four-sided cruciform keys which make the lock harder to pick and the keys harder to duplicate than a standard or tubular key.

The safe comes with the batteries, keys and two fixing bolts hidden in the packaging – be careful you don’t throw them out!

The electronic lock has two codes – the user code (1-6 digits) which you would use day to day for opening the safe and a master code (8 digits) which should be stored safely to allow the safe to be opened if the user code is forgotten (again, don’t store this in the safe!) The safe can also be set into ‘hotel mode’ which means a new user code needs to be entered in order to lock the safe if it is left open for more than 5 minutes.

The default user code is 168 and default master code is 12345678 – these should both be changed as soon as possible.

Overall, this seems to be a reasonable home safe which does not have many of the common security problems often seen in cheaper safes.

The user manual(pdf) is available on the Burg-Wächter website.

Certification Authorities (CAs) offer two types of SSL certificate, one type includes Server Gate Cryptography (SGC) and is often promoted as a premium, or high security option and is charged at a much higher price than the non-SGC equivalent. So, it should be a no-brainer that you should buy the best, most expensive certificate you can afford to ensure the security of traffic with your website, shouldn’t it?

Well, no.

Until late 1999, the United States were imposing restrictions on the export of strong cryptography which resulted in ‘export versions’ of Internet Explorer, Netscape and other web browsers which did not enable high encryption by default. Instead, browsing SSL sites with an ‘export version’ browser resulted in a connection which was encrypted with 40 or 56-bit encryption. A non-export version would negotiate 128-bit encryption. To allow very sensitive sites to step-up the encryption to 128-bit even on an export version browser, special certificates were issued to authorised sites, for example government sites and financial institutions, which would unlock the high encryption functionality and allow 128-bit secure connections.
By 2000, the export restrictions were dropped and the international browser versions began supporting 128-bit encryption by default. At the same time, SGC certificates were offered to anyone who wanted them to allow older export browsers to use high encryption.

For a few years after 2000, it made sense to use an SGC enabled certificate if you wanted to ensure everyone could access your site securely and it was worth paying a premium to ensure that your site was available to the maximum number of customers. Now, though, there are many fewer users with the old browsers, so you won’t affect as many customers by removing the SGC capability.

But, it can’t hurt to use an SGC certificate, can it?

Well, yes.

These old browsers (e.g. Internet Explorer 4.01 to 5.01, Netscape 4.07 to 4.72) are over 10 years old now, they have not received security updates or patches since 2000. The security patches which have been released for more modern browsers in the past ten years help to protect the system against keyloggers, viruses and other malware which can intercept data on the client, even if it is transmitted across the network securely encrypted. This means that the connection which is assumed to be secure by the user probably isn’t, and malware in the browser could potentially be carrying out unauthorised transactions on your server using the client’s credentials. Worse still, the malware could hide the fraudulent transactions from the user so he never sees evidence of a problem.

Updating these browsers to modern, secure versions is free and simple. High-encryption packs are available from Microsoft for older operating systems – Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT and Windows 2000, and a huge variety of secure browsers are available for free download.

So, how many customers are likely to be unable to access my site when I move to non-SGC certificates?

In an Entrust Whitepaper on the subject from July 2009, the estimate is that 0.07% of browsers on the Internet would be affected, less than 1 in a thousand, and this number is likely to be even lower now.

This small percentage of users who will be unable to connect to your site are unlikely to be surprised as more and more of the Internet will be becoming unavailable to them every day as other sites move away from these outdated certificates. It really is time they dragged themselves into the 21st Century and spent 5 minutes upgrading their browsers to ensure their connection is secure. By making sites unavailable to them, you are doing your customers a favour by encouraging them to upgrade, and are helping to protect your other customers by making it harder for malware to get a foothold on your server.

There is one very important change you need to make to your server though, ensure that weak encryption is not supported otherwise these old browsers will negotiate 40 or 56-bit connections with your server!

WordPress have released a bug-fix update to WordPress which fixes many bugs and tightens up security which was allowing certain plug-ins to leak information to unprivaleged users. Not all plugins were affected, but it is recommended that all WordPress users upgrade at their earliest opportunity.

There are reports that the dashboard in the new version is much faster than in 2.8.0, but I haven’t noticed a huge difference. I used the automatic upgrade path without any problem – all my plugins worked fine after the upgrade and the theme is unchanged.

Asian Aging

Folks keep asking me why I'm on the i-diet.

Look at the picture below and you'll see the answer:

I've always said that Asian women look young, look young, look young, and then all of a sudden look like chimpanzees as their faces collapse into wrinkles.

As a peri-menopausal woman, I feel the tug towards that chubby cheeked round pot of a woman and I'm trying to avoid it the best I can, hence the i-diet.

Meanwhile, true confessions. . .  I cheated.

Not on the diet, I've been doing that daily.  But I swore I couldn't buy any new clothes until I'd lost 5 lbs and maintained that loss for a week.  Well I lost 5 pounds and maintained it for 2 days--and then the Talbots Outlet sent me an email for 10% off my entire purchase.

I couldn't stand it.  Like an addict, I craved my junk.  The lure of savings and cheap clothes drew me inexorably towards Woburn and the Talbots Outlet.  When I got there, certain jeans were on sale for $7.99.  I couldn't resist, I bought 2 pairs, plus a white tank top for $9.99.

I presented my coupon and saved a grand total of $2.59.

The power of advertising, a coupon and incredibly cheap jeans lured me to cheat on my vow.   I'm confessing this to the world in atonement.

Meanwhile, I've got to re-engage with the diet.  4th of July excess means I'm no longer 5 lbs lighter.

Sigh.  I'm sliding back towards being the chubby cheeked round bodied chimpanzee.

Ling said...

well actually you did cheat on the idiet. and if you had run the four on the fourth with us then you wouldnt be 5 pounds heavier, which i am sure you're exaggerating about, since you WALKED on the fourth of july and came back insanely sweaty. by the amt of sweat produced, id say you dropped at least half the calories you ate that day. also, i didnt know you bought new clothes!
that's all.

gr8god said...

so let me see if i understand... you are thinking that if you can stay on the i-diet, you will stave off menopause and aging?

Kathy Tuan-MacLean said...

I don't think menopause can be avoided--but I'm trying to hold off that chubby pot-bellied puff haired asian grandma look as long as possible!

Inspecting Shower Head

If you are unhappy with your showering experience, the problem could be with the type of shower head you are using. It might need a little maintenance, or you might need to just get a new one entirely.

No comments:

Last night we went to a pre-grand opening for the Yard House in Roseville. I was so excited to go out with Jordan and a couple of my favorite friends. Until I ate that is, and everything went downhill. I ended up practically running out of the restaurant and crying the entire way home because I was so sick. But this is just a preview of what my days have become lately.

My first trimester went pretty wonderfully, minus the being extremely exhausted part. But then my summer job started up again, and everything has gone downhill. Working 40 hours a week, 80% of which are spent in the hot sun, with 20 something very energetic 7-year-olds has taken it's toll on me. My migraines have come back with a vengeance and the nausea that I was so happy to have avoided until now has been hitting me pretty hard. I had to ask my boss for one day off a week, specifically field trip days because those are the hardest, and I knew one of the lifeguards would fill in for me. While he wasn't exactly pleased, he made it work and I now have Wednesdays off.

Now I'm just praying that the little mid-week break from all the madness will provide rest my body is begging for. And hopefully I'll have a positive update soon.

  1. awe i'm sorry you haven't been feeling well. you definitely should take time off to get the much needed rest you and the baby need. i do however, LOVE, seeing your little baby bump!

  2. Your baby bump is adorable! So happy for you and Jordan -- if you find out baby is a girl, I have a bunch of cute newborn clothes that are winter related (people didn't always factor in the seasons when they bought for my showers) that you are more than welcome to have! I'm sorry you're having such a rough time with nausea -- it will get better eventually (say in 6 more months). <3

  3. aww, get better! that was the worst part for me--the sickness. :(
    you're a trooper! : )

  4. When my sister was pregnant she taught me all the cures for her very queasy pregnancy.

    Lemon heads, bananas and tea. I'm not pregnant but they are now my go to when my stomach is upset. Lemon heads work the best.

  5. Oh no! :( I'm so sorry - I hope you start to feel better soon. <3

USD/JPY is gaining momentum on Jackson’s Hole symposium as the big day looming

The USDJPY continued its move higher pushing just over the 99 level. However, the pair could not help itself to sustain a break above the crucial resistance of 99.00 area.

Sex Essentials® Where-to-buy2015

NPN 80026995

What You Can Expect from Sex Essentials®:

  • Enhance Physical Capacity/Performance
  • Support Peripheral Circulation

The ingredients in Sex Essentials® can help to improve blood flow to sexual organs and enhance physical capacity and performance:

L-Arginine is a precursor of nitric oxide (NO) in the human body. Insufficient NO levels are thought to be involved in both male and female sexual dysfunction. Higher levels of NO result in increased blood flow, which makes the penile, clitoral and vaginal tissues more sensitive and responsive to sexual stimulation and helps increase the possibility of having a satisfactory erection and reaching orgasm. One study found that postmenopausal women who took L-Arginine experienced heightened sexual response.

Another study involving 77 women of all ages found that after four weeks, 73.5% of the women who took a supplement including L-Arginine experienced greater sexual satisfaction, including heightened desire and clitoral sensation, frequency of intercourse and orgasm, and less vaginal dryness.

Gingko biloba is well known for its ability to enhance blood circulation and oxygen flow throughout the body including the sex organs. By increasing blood flow to this area of the body, ginkgo can help to improve sensitivity and sexual response.

Korean Ginseng has been shown to help improve sexual function in both men and women. A randomized, placebo controlled, double-blind crossover trial found that supplementation with ginseng in menopausal women improved sexual arousal, satisfaction and frequency. Studies have also shown clear benefits in men with reported improvements in libido, erectile function and testosterone levels.

Medicinal Ingredients

  • Korean ginseng (Panax ginseng) (root)
    (4% ginsenosides) ...167mg
  • Ginkgo Biloba (Gingko Biloba) (leaf)
    (24% flavone glycosides, 6% terpene lactones) ...40mg
  • L-Arginine Hydrochloride (L-arginine hydrochloride)... 333 mg

Non-Medicinal Ingredients

Vegetarian capsule (cellulose, purified water, silica), microcrystalline cellulose, silica, vegetable grade magnesium stearate (lubricant), Lycium barbarum

3 capsules taken together daily or as directed by a health care practitioner. Take with food. Keep out of reach of children.

Caution: L-Arginine should not be used by those who have had a heart attack. For those persons who have not had a heart attack, L-arginine may help the body repair damage to blood vessels in the heart. L-Arginine may cause herpes outbreaks in those who are susceptible. Gingko Biloba and Ginseng should not be taken with any blood thinning medication.

This product does not contain artificial preservatives, colour or sweeteners; dairy, soy, wheat or yeast.

Is Sex Essentials gluten free?

Yes, we do have confirmation on file that there is no gluten added and no gluten present in Sex Essentials.  However, our manufacturing facility is NOT a gluten free facility, and as we do process products that contain gluten we are unable to confirm 100% that there is no possibility of cross contamination.

Do all of your products have an NPN?

Yes, all of our products have been issued a Natural Product Number (NPN) by Health Canada – these numbers do appear on our labels.  Further Natural Health Product criteria and information can be found on the Health Canada website  Under the Food and Drugs Act items that are considered a food – for example, our protein powders and herbal teas – do not require an NPN.

Are your capsules GMO free?

Yes, our vegetarian capsule shells, our gelatin capsule shells and our softgel shells are all non-GMO.

Are your products GMO free?

Preferred Nutrition is currently in the process of testing all of our products so that we can advise the public if any of them contain ingredients that come from genetically modified organisms or not.  Once the testing is complete we will indicate on our website, as well as on our product information sheets and on our labels.  This will be done as quickly as possible and on a product-by-product basis.

Why have your cautions and your recommended/suggested usages changed so dramatically on many of your labels?

The changes you are noticing to our suggested usage and cautionary statements have been at the directive of Health Canada.  There have been many regulatory changes with regards to Natural Health Products causing companies to change their labels accordingly.  We update our website, product information sheets and labels on the actual products to reflect these regulations as quickly as we possibly can.  Health Canada and the industry representing natural health products act according to the interest of consumers and their safety.  As a result, if there is any concern with an existing condition, a caution is added to advise the consumer to seek out feedback from their Health Care professional.

Will this product help me lose weight?

There is no such thing as a "magic" pill or product - the only way to succeed (and maintain) true weight loss is by adopting a healthy lifestyle combining adequate exercise and proper nutrition. If you are concerned about poor eating habits or cravings, then we recommend you seek advice from a Nutritionist or Naturopath to obtain some guidance on healthy eating, as well as to investigate possible underlying (or undiagnosed) hormonal imbalances, which can make it harder to lose weight.  You might also want to consider speaking with a personal trainer to help you discover a fun fitness program that you enjoy - because, no matter what, in order to achieve and maintain any type of weight loss, exercise is required.  Our vitamins and supplements are designed to help you in your quest to a daily, healthy lifestyle, however it also requires effort on your part.

Where do you source your products from?

Please be advised that all of our ingredients, including flavourings, are derived from natural ingredients and are ISURA tested & certified (in order to ensure the absence of GMOs, contaminants, heavy metals and adulteration).  All of our products are manufactured at a GMP facility certified by Health Canada.  All raw materials come in and are tested for purity, safety and potency.  If they do not meet our standards they are rejected and sent back or destroyed.  We use the highest quality ingredients available, and choose organic whenever we can.  Many of our products contain proprietary patented ingredients that have been clinically researched to help deliver optimal results and outstanding quality.

Are your products peanut free?

Following compliance with food regulations, in order to make a negative claim such as "peanut free", it would be necessary to insure a zero tolerance of any peanut traces, including the possibility of cross contamination.  Although our manufacturing facility has a policy in place for allergen control, there is no specific policy for peanuts, nor is there a specific "no peanut agreement" with our raw material suppliers.

Can your products be used after the expiry date has passed?

Supplements generally keep their potency long after the expiry date.  There is certainly no safety issues with consuming after the expiry date has passed however the potency degrades over longer periods of time.

If a product does not specify "vegetarian capsule", then what is it made from?

These capsules are gelatin capsules sourced from either pork or beef.

Are any of your products "vegan-friendly"?

Yes, AdrenaSense, EstroSense, MenoSense, BioSil, Medi-C Plus, Magnesium and MagSense (from our WomenSense and Preferred Nutrition product lines), the Healing Teas, our Ultimate Maca Energy products and the Ultimate VEGAN line are all vegan friendly.

Why can't I find any prices on your website?

Preferred Nutrition is the wholesale distribution company for the products on this website. However we sell exclusively to Health Food stores & selected Natural Pharmacies across Canada, not directly to the general public.  Because the prices of our products can vary from store-to-store, we are unable to list our suggested prices on our website.  We recommend you contact your local retailer and inquire about prices directly with them.

Can I purchase products directly from you?  I went to a health food store and the prices seem very expensive.

We distribute our products in Canada only and we sell directly to Health Food stores - since they have a personal commitment to the natural health lifestyle.  Consumers are then able to buy our products from knowledgeable staff that are genuinely interested in helping people be well - people who care!  Always be sure to look for in store promotions or coupons when you are making your purchases as this can help alleviate your cost concerns.

Do all health food stores carry all of your products?

To find Health Food stores in your area that carry our products, please click on "Store Locator" at the top of this screen.  All you have to do is enter your postal code and you will be given a list of retailers in the radius that you choose. We do recommend calling ahead to see if they stock the item you are looking for and in most cases if a store does not normally carry something, they will offer to do a special order for you.

Are any of your products tested on animals?

No, there is no animal testing on any of our products.

Should your supplements be taken with or without food?

Most of our products will specify directly on the bottle whether they should be taken with a meal or not.  If nothing is stated, then the choice is yours as to when the best time is for you to take them.  In general, however, most vitamin supplements should be taken with food because once eating starts the digestive process, enzymes and gastric juices are generated and usually the nutrients will be absorbed and assimilated better.

I like the sound of many of your products.  Am I able to take different formulas at the same time?

Yes, it's safe to combine various WomenSense products to help support the body in achieving optimal health.  The same applies to the Preferred Nutrition line, Dr. Whitaker's formulas and Brad King's.  If you are unsure of any combination, then please consult your Health Care Practitioner.

I have heard that drinking green tea along with my supplements will end up flushing out all the nutrients?  Is this true?

No, you are fine taking your supplements with green tea.  Coffee inhibits the absorption of nutrients, but the caffeine in green tea will not pose the same problem.

Can you tell me if I can combine any of your supplements with the medication(s) I am on, as prescribed by my doctor?

It is best to consult your Doctor or alternative Health Practitioner before taking any new supplements while on prescribed medication.  If you have been approved to add our supplement(s) to your daily regime, then we do recommend that you space the medication and the supplements out by at least one hour.

Can I take your products when I am pregnant or breastfeeding?

We are not able to make any recommendations with any of our products when it comes to pregnancy or while nursing.  You must contact your Health Practitioner, Naturopath or Pharmacist.

I understand that you put a recommended dosage on your labels, but I can take more or less than that, right?  And, really, do I have to take the product every day?

With regards to the recommended dosage, we would suggest you speak to your Doctor or Health Care Practitioner before increasing any amounts.  As with any supplement you can determine your amount based on your personal preference - if you find that a product works for you immediately then you should be fine to take it just on the days you feel you need it, but again we suggest you discuss this with you MD or HP.  Some consumers find that a product needs to be in their system for a few days to a few weeks before they notice results and/or feel the full benefits.

I don't understand why when I purchase your product and open the bottle, the contents don't even fill 1/2 of the packaging that is being used?

The containers we use are determined based on product fill and required label information, as well as capsule count when/where applicable.  Sometimes we do have to use a larger bottle than seems necessary because of the information required on the labels - requirements both from Health Canada and in order for the label to be clear and legible to our consumers.  Also, in a case where we are offering larger volume (ie/ 400g versus 200g or 180 capsules versus 90 capsules), then we have to put the contents in a bigger container in order for there to be differentiation on the shelf.

I bought a bottle of your product, and although it seemed to feel lighter than usual, I didn't think much of it, until I opened the bottle and discovered that there is nowhere near the amount of capsules inside as there should have been.  How can this happen?

As part of our corporate policy and Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) requirement, our procedures incorporate routine in-process checks plus a final examination of the finished product to ensure conformance to all aspects of quality, including correct product count.  There are a number of checks and balances performed by both Production and Quality Assurance personnel prior to, during, and after the packaging operations to ensure that product under-counts do not happen. Although product under-counts can happen, this occurrence is rare.  Should you discover that your bottle is far below the label claim count upon opening - we recommend you return it to your point of purchase as per our 100% customer satisfaction guarantee.

What is your 100% money-back (customer satisfaction) guarantee?

Our 100% money-back/customer satisfaction guarantee ensures that if a customer is not completely satisfied with their purchase, they can return the unused portion of the product (in its original packaging) back to their point of purchase and we will credit the Health Food store 100% of their purchase price from us.  We cannot dictate if a store will give cash back or an in-store credit, nor can we override store policies already in place ~ but we do promise to credit them, regardless of the reason for the return.

Will Google survive Google books? reflections from a friend

In all of the discussion around the Google books settlement, I'm not hearing anything about the implications of this fundamental change in direction on the basic business of Google.

Google's motto is "don't be evil". Ethically, this would be a good model for any of us; for a search engine, this is also the basis of, and reason for, the trust that most of us continue to have in Google.

What will the impact of licensing books be on this trust? Based on my experience, it would be very difficult indeed for any company to maintain the kind of trust that Google has built, with a licensing approach. Aside from the trust barrier that the toll barrier per se raises, there will inevitably be times when access is inappropriately denied. For example, the imperfections of any authentication system mean that at times, toll access will be denied even to those who have paid the tolls.

More importantly, by getting involved with Google Books, no doubt with the very best of intentions, Google has accidentally walked into a situation that creates many an unintended evil. There are many aspects of analysis, which I do not have time to write about in full, so perhaps an example will suffice for now.

With the current settlement, Canadian books are covered as our copyright laws are similar to those of the U.S.; however, this settlement does not extend beyond the U.S., so these books will only be accessible to Americans, not Canadians. A U.S. citizen will have access to a book where even the family of the author, or the group that the Canadian author wrote about, has no access.

If my own recently-published book, Scholarly Communication for Librarians, had been published just a few months earlier, it would be included in Google Books. This means that it would be readily available to U.S. citizens, but not to the people of my country whose taxes paid the lion's share of my public education, nor to the library school at the University of British Columbia that gave me the opportunity to teach scholarly communication, the course that was the basis for this book.

One obvious remedy is to remove all foreign-published books from Google Books; indeed, with the current settlement, most foreign books have already been eliminated. This may help to advance Google Books from a purely legalistic standpoint - but what does this do to the likelihood of Americans developing a more inclusive, global view? The easily accessible and usable digital library is very likely to replace the print collections for a great many students; if foreign books are removed, this means that the chances that American students will be exposed to ideas from outside the U.S. will greatly diminish. This short term advantage for the U.S. will likely create much greater disadvantages in the medium term. Americans will be less able to compete in global markets, for example, and less prepared to diagnose, address, and prevent security problems - including developing the broad-based cross-cultural perspective that all of us need to live in harmony in our globalized world.

To borrow a phrase from Freire: what to do? Here is some advice to Google, from a friend:

Plan to get out of the Google Books business at the soonest possible opportunity. How?

Put the books back where they belong. If they are from the public domain, put the electronic versions into the public domain, equally available to all - including competitors. "Scanned and made available by Google" on the book is appropriate. Print on demand would be a useful and not-evil service. If they are in copyright, give them back to the copyright owners - the publishers and author. By all means, negotiate compensation such as a share of profits to recoup the monies spent on digitization. But the sooner Google is out of the licensing business, the better for trust in Google. If the works are orphan works, leave this matter with the legislators; join with the Open Contact Alliance to find a solution that will work for everyone.

As a PhD student, I see the benefits of this approach and would love to have access to this great electronic library. What an advance this would be, over our current situation where every copy of an important book owned by any library that could provide a copy in reasonable time, may be on loan, and the chances that the book is available through a bookstore slim to none. Not to mention the research advantages of being able to search the texts of books, even the books that we own in print. Thank you to Google, and to the libraries involved, for pushing the envelope and showing all of us what can be achieved.

Eleventh Oration (City of the Sun)

Ladies and gentlemen, the youths of this country are bored. You'd think just being alive and youths would excite them, but not at all. The morning sky was clear, I was at campus, and everyone was despondent.

Are there any youths in this room? Then consider, if you will, the tide of Being behind you, those negative masses standing in your cement areas, your grassy areas, and your areas neither grassy nor cement.

Are you terrified, youths? Do you think you're more than killable? Isn't it irrefutable that every personal world, with its health, is destroyed four times over, all savings depleted, before there is meanwhile anything else to learn or see?

But how lovely the wind off the sea today. How tempting to lecture you on signs and calculations.

"Pussy" by Renata Gąsiorowska and "Impossible figures and Other Stories II" by Marta Pajek won another awards, this time at the Janela Internacional de Cinema do Recife Festival.

On November 12th the 10th edition of the Janela Festival came to an end in Brazil. In the International Shorts Competition two Polish animations were awarded: "Pussy" by Renata Gąsiorowska – for the best cinematography and "Impossible Figures and Other Stories II" by Marta Pajek – for the best sound.

"Pussy" is a funny story about a young woman who spends the evening alone at home. She decides to give herself a treat, but not everything works out as smoothly as she has imagined. The animation has already visited and won awards at several international festivals including DOK Leipzig and AFI Fest. The movie review by Dagmara Marcinek is available in our Reading Room, and an interview with the director here.

"Impossible Figures and Other Stories II" is a second part of the tryptic based on the idea of impossible figures – the ones that can be put on paper but cannot exist in real life. The animated series is a statement about the role of a woman, determined in three different spaces: starting with the most intimate one – like home and family – and finishing with the wider social context. The film trailer is available here. The producer of Marta Pajek's tryptic is animation studio from Warsaw Animoon.

Hot Breaking News for Filipinos

May himala! Korina reveals Belo secret how to ‘shrink’ face

0 2,240

Korina Sanchez is spilling the beans about the “simple” and “painless” way to get a thinner face without surgery.

“For those wondering: HOW DID HER FACE GET SO SMALL? Ok, mayroong himala. Care of Dra. Vicki Belo, haha!” Korina said in an Instagram post.

Korina said she has undergone “Belo Thermage,” a non-invasive radiofrequency cosmetic procedure to imrpove skin, four months before the billboard campaign for Belo. “I actually have done this every year for the past three years. That’s deep heat infusion through radio frequency that makes the skin tight,” she said.

Also helping Korina attain thinner and tighter face was “protein short threads.”

“Dra. Vicki embedded protein short threads, about eight per cheek. No pain after 30 minutes of topical anaesthesia. Wala akong naramdaman talaga,” she said.

Here is the comparison on video…

A post shared by Korina Sanchez-Roxas (@thisiskorinasanchezroxas) on

Would just like to thank the Belo Group for trusting me enough to carry their Belo Thermage brand. Am very happy with the concept and layout, thought it quite clever. Am amused with the different reactions to the board, mostly of some form of shock (hahahaha), and am grateful to all those who went out of their way to message me, text me and even call me to let me know they like it👍💋❤. People who haven't seen me in a while or maybe haven't started following me on IG or FB are wondering aloud: HOW DID SHE GET THAT THIN? How did her face get that small?  Well, there are no shortcuts to getting fit. You just have to watch what you eat. To get toned you have to exercise. And that's what I did. Lost 15 lbs and I purposely got darker. I like to be tanned. So, now, with the weight loss, my face is "da sky is falling", gravity beckons. What to do??? Stay tuned. At 7:30 pm I'll be posting the three step simple, painless and non-surgical process I did with Belo that made my face shrink from large to small! #korinasanchezforbelothermage

Haddock en Papillote

  • 1 cup barley
  • 1 leek
  • 1/2 bulb anise
  • 1 sweet red pepper
  • 1 1/2 cups julienned carrots
  • 400 g wild haddock fillets
  • freshly ground pepper
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1/4 cup sherry
  • lemon wedges to garnish

Preheat oven to 425°F.
Place barley in a pot of cold water to soak for 20 minutes.
Slice leek (whites and solid, light green section) into thin discs.
Remove hard core and stems from anise, reserving some of the delicate fronds.
Thinly slice red pepper.

Cut three sheets of parchment paper, approximately 15 x 10 inches in size.
Fold sheets in half to create 7 1/2 x 10 inch rectangles, firmly crease the fold, then open sheets out again.

Drain the barley and divide it into three portions, spreading each portion out over one half of each sheet of parchment paper, leaving a good inch of paper bare around the edges.
Spread half of the vegetables over top of the barley.
Top each bed of vegetables with a haddock fillet.
Spread the remaining vegetables on top of the fish.
Sprinkle each portion with freshly ground pepper and the reserved fennel fronds.
Drizzle olive oil and sherry over each portion.

Fold the bare sides of parchment paper over the top and roll the edges of the paper up together on all sides to create tightly sealed packages.
Place packages in a large baking pan or on top of a baking sheet and cook at 425°F for 15 to 20 minutes.

Serve portions in their parchment paper bags, garnished with a wedge of lemon.

BEST of PONDER on THIS for Wednesday, December 14th, 2016 by Dr Wayne W. Dyer in REAL MAGIC

Relinquish your need to be right. This is the single greatest cause of difficulties and deterioration in relationships – the need to make the other person wrong, or to make yourself right. To win the argument. To prove they don’t know what they are talking about. To show that you are superior. The spiritual partnership is a relationship of equals. No one needs to be proven wrong. There is no “right” way or “winning” an argument. Each person has the right to his or her own point of view. If you want to see miracles begin to take place in your life, simply let go of the need to make anyone else wrong for a few days and watch how differently things go for you.”

Dr. Wayne W. Dyer, in “Real Magic”

Pono Grown History

Hawaii is unique in its isolation in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.  Over 85%  of our food comes from at least thousands of miles away.  While most of our grandparents or great grandparents were growing food in connection with the land, there has been a break in the multigenerational mentorship that taught us all to provide for the basic needs of our existence.  This disconnect has resulted in the health of our land, watersheds, social and family structures being compromised.

We believe that by reconnecting individuals to the natural cycles of life and the ways the planet directly provides for our sustenance that we can foster a culture that cares more for our planet and the life that inhabits it.

Pono Grown offers a unique synergy of a production farm and community center.  Maui has long needed a center that can support in educating the community in connection with the aina.  Pono Grown Farm Center seeks to bridge the generational disconnect by inviting our island community to learn and grow together.

In December 2010 Pono Grown Farm Center began discussions with the land owner of our 15 acres site in Makawao.  After 2 years of designing the land and project and finalizing our agreements with the land owner, in December 2012 we broke ground on the project.

The past few years have been full with building infrastructure, setting up water systems, solar electric, living and farm buildings and getting plants and trees ready in the nursery.  In 2015 we began planting the farm and currently have over 4 acres of trees planted, including a 2 acre food forest, and we have just begun planting our first round of vegetables.

In addition to plant life we are home to over 10 bee hives for honey and pollination and have egg laying chickens taking care of our apple orchard.

So far we have hosted hundreds of people on the land for educational workshops, community gatherings, nature connection programs, internships, and volunteer days.  We look forward to continuing to host even more as our infrastructure improves in the coming years.

We are grateful for the support of the project donors, foundations, and thousands of hours of volunteer work that have supported our growth.  Every day we are growing the land, the mission of the project and ourselves in a right way–Pono Grown!

High school football facility honors Ponte Vedra Beach family

A Ponte Vedra Beach family now has its name in lights on Friday nights during high school football season.

Episcopal School of Jacksonville dedicated its new state-of-the art football stadium during halftime of the Warriors’ 43-18 home-opening victory over Eagle’s View on Sept. 22. Jangro Stadium was named in honor of Ponte Vedra Beach residents Susan and Joe Jangro, whose four sonsDavid, Stephen, Jake and Nickall graduated from Episcopal.

The school broke ground on the 1,000-seat stadium on Nov. 14, 2016. The stadium is part of an $18 million capital campaign for improvements to the private school, which also included a new pool deck, new locker rooms for the swim team, a library renovation and building up the endowment fund.

The campaign, known as Lead the Way, began in the fall of 2015 and ran through the fall of 2017, and the Jangros were a key component of the campaign’s success.

“They were instrumental, with donations, in supporting the school and the campaign, and getting us on our way,” Episcopal athletic director Andy Kidd said. “They’re leaders in the campaign, both with their time and energy, and helping fundraise and getting involved, as well.”

Jangro Stadium also features an updated scoreboard, new bleachers and stands, a renovated press box, new concession areas, a spirit store, new meeting and screening rooms, a fully equipped weight room and an observation deck that overlooks the field and the pool.

Kidd said upgrades and renovations are critical for the school of around 900 students, given that 80 percent of high school students at Episcopal participate in athletics, as well as nearly 90 percent of its middle school students.

The fact that the Jangros were so involved in the campaign even though their sons already graduated speaks volumes, he said.

“A testament to the school and the Jangros is that their kids aren’t here anymore, and they still wanted to do that for the school,” Kidd said. “I think they really appreciated the experience it gave their kids, the foundation it gave them, and they wanted to pay it forward to the next generation of Episcopal athletes.”

The Lead the Way campaign coincided with Episcopal’s 50th anniversary.

“This campaign required a tremendous team effort to make it a success,” Susan Jangro, who was co-chair of the Lead the Way campaign, said in an email. “The new facilities and programs we’ve added during the campaign will impact the entire ESJ community for years to come. We’re happy to be celebrating this wonderful new chapter for a school we love.”

Missy Ketchum, director of advancement for Episcopal, said the ESJ community really stepped up, exceeding a feasibility study’s $15 million forecast by more than $2 million.

“It’s a very generous community,” Ketchum said. “People who love the school wanted to see the school take the next step toward the next 50 years.”

Kidd echoed that sentiment regarding the Jangros, who he said were flattered by the stadium-naming gesture, but were also reserved about being singled out for the honor.

“They didn’t ask for it,” Kidd said. “And they don’t want the recognition. They just wanted to make sure the next generation is taken care of at Episcopal.”

At a high-level meeting, chaired by Home Minister Rajnath Singh and attended by Chief Ministers Tarun Gogoi (Assam) and T R Zeliang (Nagaland), efforts have been made to come to an acceptable final solution to the border dispute between the two states.
As per the decision taken during the meeting, the Chief Secretaries of the two states will submit suggestions to the Home Ministry within two weeks, which is expected to pave the way for solving the long lasting issue.
"The Home Minister is taking a sincere reconciliatory effort to find a solution to be acceptable to both Assam and Nagaland," a Home Ministry official said.
Eleven people were killed along the Assam-Nagaland border in Golaghat district in August and nearly 10,000 people had been displaced and taken shelter in relief camps after clashes between people of the two states.
Gogoi had earlier urged the Home Minister to initiate immediate measures to deploy Sashastra Seema Bal (SSB) as a neutral force in the affected villages along its border with Nagaland.
The boundary dispute, which was first cropped up in 1970s, has been going on very often and both the states have approached the Supreme Court for a final resolution. The case is still sub-judice.

Science Fiction Double Feature

Hello dear readers!

The first thing to say is: Happy New Year!

I hope this year will be a good one for all of you, and thank you very much for all your kind seasonal greetings on the previous post.

On to today's post! I'm still getting over my cough and cold, which turned out to be a very bad one, but I did make it to the theatre the other night. I have said before that I'm a big fan of The Rocky Horror Picture Show, and my friend got tickets for us to see the stage show!

We both wanted to dress up, and at first I thought we could be Riff-Raff and Magenta, or Brad and Janet, or the couple from the American Gothic painting that Riff-Raff and Magenta dress up as at the church, but it was all a bit difficult to coordinate being in two different continents as we tried to plan it. So, we were Transylvanians!

We hunted so hard for cummerbund sets, and then a couple of days after the show I walked into a second-hand shop and there were millions of them.

I don't have an outfit shot of my friend, so I put me twice, haha! Sorry about the messy background.

I really enjoyed wearing this boyish outfit, especially the cummerbund! One of my lolita resolutions this year is to try to put together an aristocrat outfit, a manly one I mean.

The show was great fun, although the poor actors' attempted American accents proved difficult to keep up. Every time Frank-n-Furter's slipped he replaced it with a new one from somewhere else. Still, I enjoyed it all a great deal and it made more sense than the film- I suppose they had to cut some things out for the film? The narrator was really good, and dealt very well with the audience shouting things out, even though it wasn't supposed to be one of those performances where the audience joins in.  I'd like to go to one of those some day!

Have you been to see Rocky Horror at the cinema or on stage? Did you dress up? Who should I dress up as next time do you think?

See you next time,

  1. I've seen Rocky Horror a gazillion times. I love going to the shadow-cast shows. I even have plans to go back in the states when I get home! I have one planned in March and one in May!

    1. I hope you'll enjoy them, it all sounds amazing!

  2. Also that Cummerband is soooo cute. Plus the bow tie is VERY Doctor Who ^_^

  3. I love Rocky Horror Picture Show! ♥
    And your outfit is wonderfull, I recognised it immediatly!

    And happy new year, may all your wishes come true ♥

    1. I'm really happy you recognised it! Thanks for your comment :)

  4. We have a Rocky Horror every year around Halloween on my college campus!! My first one though was at a historic theatre in New England where they hold Rocky Horror's every Saturday! It has a real history behind it all. *A*

    I really love how you look in boyish clothing, it really suits you!!

    1. Wow, I want to go to your college!

  5. Akemashite omedetou gozaimasu!!! ^O^
    I have to admit with shame that I never saw the Rocky Horror. But I defintely want to!

  6. you look absolutely gorgeous! i love your outfit as always! <3
