The first word that occurs to me is "motherlove". But perhaps a better term would be "ambient impersonal tenderness". Japan is a society shockingly full of ambient impersonal tenderness, overlapping with tender-mindedness, shading into tweeness.

In Join Or Die, I paint myself having sex with the Presidents of the United States in chronological order. I am interested in humanizing and demythologizing the Presidents by addressing their public legacies and private lives. The presidency itself is a seemingly immortal and impenetrable institution; by inserting myself in its timeline, I attempt to locate something intimate and mortal. I use this intimacy to subvert authority, but it demands that I make myself vulnerable along with the Presidents. A power lies in rendering these patriarchal figures the possible object of shame, ridicule and desire, but it is a power that is constantly negotiated.
I approach the spectacle of sex and politics with a certain playfulness. It would be easy to let the images slide into territory that's strictly pornographic—the lurid and hardcore, the predictably "controversial." One could also imagine a series preoccupied with wearing its "Fuck the Man" symbolism on its sleeve. But I wish to move beyond these things and make something playful and tender and maybe a little ambiguous, but exuberantly so. This, I feel, is the most humanizing act I can do.

But, I’m guessing since food prices have shot through the roof [...] they have been cutting back on the quality of their, well, everything: the flour they are using in the skins—the skins are now thick and doughy rather than sleek and shiny; the pork they are grinding for the filling—the meat is not as tender or as xiang as it once was

What does a business do to stay in touch and share documents with its people when those people – industry specialists based (in the target country) abroad– are spread across the globe? CINETIQUE Translations, a company that provides expert translation services faces just such a challenge and turned to Yuuguu to solve the problem. Founded in 2002 by Laurence Auffret, a biologist and translation lecturer at Manchester University, CINETIQUE Translations was set up to combine the two specialist skills of science and translation to produce a thriving business that specialises in offering translation services to the technological, scientific and engineering communities. CINETIQUE Translations’ work includes: websites and user interfaces; conference publications, presentations and training modules; installation, operating, and maintenance manuals; and patents, claims, EU compliance documentation and tender documents. All this kind of work requires the utmost accuracy but a key issue in terms of translation in general - and technological, scientific and academic translation in particular – is to generate translations that do not just do the job in literal terms, but are able to translate the exact sense, meaning, and phrasing of any work. In other words, all translations must mean precisely the same ‘thing’ as in the original document. In CINETIQUE Translations’ fields of expertise this means it is essential that translators are fluent, not just in the requisite languages, but also the information contained in the original documents, as well as how that same information needs to be communicated in the target market. To help achieve this, CINETIQUE Translations uses ultra-specialist translators, they live and work in their home territory and in the specific industry. It also researches any documents that it produces thoroughly, often running them past focus groups, which are themselves based in the target territory. That all means that effective sharing tools – like web conferencing – would be vital. But, they are also expensive, complex to set up and time-consuming. CINETIQUE Translations is using Yuuguu to contact its in-country consultants – and sample groups – simply. It also uses Yuuguu to share documents and enable live document editing and note-making through the screen-sharing and control features. The benefits, says Laurence Auffret, are obvious: “Our translations are done by industry experts who live in the country where the translated document is going to be used. Firstly, it’s really important for us to be able to discuss documentation as a team - publisher, client, translator, editor, project manager - in real-time”. “Also, team meetings always take place online and we need to share our views on certain aspects of the documents, in real-time. So, we screen-share and one person can add on another linguist’s work – it’s a great tool.”

Tied face down on the bed, I life my nude body as my master instructs, feeling tender fingers on my bum, anticipating the sharp pleasure of paint to com...... Erotic stories of a sexually submissive woman and her dom husband. Erotic stories and some pics, links to other dom /sub sites and information.
Salvation AU. Sam+Sarah=Allie. HappyFic. Tender Dean. Babies and domesticity and warm fuzzies.
Sam at Stanford. Wonderful little sequential art piece. Tender and quiet.
Very interesting AU. Dean takes a (metaphorical) bullet for John, with sexy results! Tender, with some het and hints of Dean/John UST and Sam/Dean. The gen label is not intentionally misleading -- only that the focus here is on Dean, not on pairings.
Have a good size piece of tender red meat? This is a great way to lightly season it with rosemary, garlic and olive oil. The beef slowly cooks in the olive oil creating a flavorful gravy like sauce afterwards.
Sam/Dean. Dean is nothing without his brother. An interesting look at a psychologically broken Dean. I like this dysfunctional, yet tender intimacy between them. Astute characterization, although the execution wobbles just slightly, here and there.
