“This might be a lot worse than AIDS in the short run because the bacteria are more aggressive and will affect more people quickly. Getting gonorrhea from this strain might put someone into septic shock and death in a matter of days. This is very dangerous,” said Alan Christianson, a doctor of naturopathic medicine.

CNBC says the first case of H041 was reported in the United States last May in Hawaii. Now, the sex superbug has surfaced in California and Norway.

This is a bit too much ain’t it? What are they making something new since AIDS may have a cure soon? Mogul thoughts…. that’s all.

Condoms can’t prevent unwanted pregnancy and sexually transmitted disease if they’re used incorrectly. Unfortunately, a new review of research finds that condom use errors are all too common.

Some of the most frequent mistakes include putting a condom on partway through intercourse or taking it off before intercourse is over, failing to leave space at the tip of the condom for semen, and failing to look for damage before use. These errors can contribute to breakage or leakage, researchers reported Feb. 17 in the journal Sexual Health.

“We chronically underestimate how complicated condom use can be,” University of Kentucky professor Richard Crosby, who co-authored the study, said in a statement. “It involves the use of a condom, while negotiating the condom use and sex with a partner all at the same time.”

With perfect use, condoms prevent pregnancy with 98 percent success, according to the World Health Organization. Typically, however, the rate of unintended pregnancy with condoms is around 15 percent.

Led by Stephanie Sanders of The Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender, and Reproduction at Indiana University, the researchers pulled together 16 years of research on condom errors and failures going back to 1995. They found 50 studies from 14 countries, though western nations such as the United States and the United Kingdom predominated. The studies involved diverse groups of participants, from married individuals to sex workers to college students; as such, there were a range of condom use-error rates.

An analysis of all 50 studies found a laundry list of reported errors in condom use. For example, between 17 percent and 51.1 percent of people queried in the studies said they’d put on a condom partway through intercourse — negating any disease-controlling benefits, since fluids are exchanged throughout intercourse not just during ejaculation. Other studies found that between 1.5 percent and 24.8 percent of sexual experiences involved putting a condom on too late in the process of intercourse. [Sidebar: 14 Common Condom Errors]

The research also turned up multiple mistakes in how people put condoms on. Up to 25.3 percent said they unrolled the condom’s sheath before putting on the condom, rather than unrolling the condom on the penis. Between a quarter and almost half of respondents said they’d failed to leave room at the tip of the condom for semen to collect. About 75 percent of men and 82 percent of women failed to check condoms for damage before using them.

Between 0.8 percent and 40.7 percent of participants had experienced a condom break, and between 13.1 percent and 19.3 percent had one leak, depending on the study. Improper condom use, including the wrong kind of lubricant or storage, can contribute to these problems. For instance, oil-based lubricants will degrade latex condoms.

“Closing the gap between perfect use and the errors characterizing typical use is one of the most crucial challenges of future condom promotion programs,” the researchers wrote.

I’m a FAN…but I don’t know about this one Moguls…

 I’m not sure I want to trust Han and The Droids on this adventure ;-)

Okay, so I’m no health guru, but I figure if these are the 16 healthiest foods in the history of eating…it can’t hurt a Mogul to try to include these items in the rotation from time to time. Be healthy Moguls!!

Well, another Valentine’s Day is upon us. Ever since I stopped passing out little envelopes and suckers to the whole class in elementary school, the meaning of Valentine’s Day has taken on a number of different meanings. In my teen years it was an opportunity to lure Young Cuties into “the Web”; as a young adult, it was a chance to hone my Super Smooth Mack Moves, and as an adult…it became an all out responsibility!!

That’s right….I said it. I know some of you guys are thinking the same thing…you just don’t dare say it out loud. Hell, making sure you do good by your sweetie on February 14th ends up falling on the same list as going to your bi-annual dentist appointment and cleaning out the gutters.  Don’t get me wrong, I’ve got no problem with making sure my “Special Someone” feels loved…but I do have an issue with having to jump through hoops and do a song and dance just because the calendar says it’s February 14th and my girlfriend doesn’t want to have ‘That Look’ on her face when her girlfriends ask what I did for her on Valentine’s Day!!

Ladies won’t admit it, but it’s the god’s honest truth. We’ve all seen our friends and other couples have those long few days from February 15th to February 20th (depending on how many times she had to tell the story of how you forgot or bought her a lame a$$ toaster) where an otherwise happy relationship turns into a dead zone because of  those infamous V-Day events. Hell…I’ve even seen people break up! Well…I’ve got a few Real Mogul-Life suggestions to take the sting out of Valentines Day, and add some much needed Love & Affection to any relationship….Mogul Style:

1. Create a Valentine’s Day tradition that isn’t as much focused on what you do for each other, but more about what you do for the other people in your lives that add Love and Support to you and your relationship. It’s something you can do together, will make you both feel good, and take the pressure off of  measuring your Love by one day’s events.
2. Choose another date on the calendar that has meaning (not your anniversary) and make it a point to celebrate your Love on that day. If possible, pick a time when your lives are notoriously busy and you normally wouldn’t have as much time together, and make it a point to do something you both Really enjoy. You can give the day a special name, and even begin to build some relationship enhancing traditions. It’ll give you something to look forward to at time when you need it most!
3. Play hookie. Pick a random day, either before, or after Valentine’s Day and disappear with your loved one. Leave no messages, tell no one (other than making arrangements for work), and make no plans. Go somewhere no one knows your name, laugh loudly, be silly, eat well, and make Love someplace you normally wouldn’t The two of you will have secret reasons to smile for weeks to come.

Happy Valentines Day Moguls

Is anything safe right now for us to eat? Damn looks like we really need to have neighborhood gardens with certain individuals raising chickens and things. I know a lot of this video is propaganda, but damn a huge percentage has to be right and exact.

Men hold out your hand and see how those fingers match up.

A smaller ratio between the second and fourth fingers is linked to a longer stretched penis size, researchers report today (July 4) in the Asian Journal of Andrology. The findings go beyond providing a new finger ratio-based pick-up line for men in bars, however; researchers say that a quick look at a man’s fingers could reveal his exposure to male hormones in the womb, providing a hint about his risk for hormone-driven diseases like prostate cancer.

The idea that men’s finger ratio and hormone exposure are linked is not a new one. Studies have found that the ratio between the second and fourth finger is related to sperm count, likelihood of heart attack, hand preference, facial masculinity and more. One small 2002 study published in the journal Urology found a correlation between the length of the index finger and genital size in healthy men under 40, suggesting that testosterone exposure in the womb affects the growth of both.

Do you believe in studies??

July’s Ebony issue  was jam-packed with interesting reads and eye candy, but what caught my eye most was the Elevate: Wellness and Spirituality (and the 50 Finest)feature found on pages 49-59. An avid, cover-to-cover reader of Ebony when I was younger, I’ll be the first to admit that recent years find me skimming it quickly, and putting it down just as quickly. Not that it isn’t a quality publication, but it has been a while since I felt that it reflected any topical diversity.  The brief articles and personal accounts of the Elevate feature cover topics such as weight loss, meditation, Atheism, and the elusive G-Spot! These ten pages alone are worth the cover price.

Enjoy
