Polyamorous: A new conceived genre of relationships
The word Polyamorous is derived from the Greek, poly means many, and the Latin, amor or love. The definition signifys a whole range of liberated sexual practices such as homosexuality, however some gay rejects this term association. From the broad definition of polyamory, which dictionary define as the state or practice of having more than one open romantic relationship at a time.
Relationships have different genres, these are monogamy, celibacy, open marriage, pair-bonded inclusive relating, triads (one man with two women or two women with one man) , loving networks, group marriage, multi-generational line marriage, and more (Fagan's Definition). This polymory promotes "freedom from any constraints upon sexual behavior.
You have heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual, pansexual alternatives within each. You have many spiritual practices and value systems to chose [sic]-to mix and match with your relationship options, styles and sexual orientation. What is most important is that you are the chooser and that you come from choice.
According to theorist, "In the culture of polyamory, which treasures sexual freedom or license, such sexual constraint by men (or women) is not expected, nor, in fact, is any attempt to foster such constraint acceptable, for that would be the antithesis of the main project of the culture of polyamory, women are anchors, while men can drift (or be cast adrift) as desired, and they do so in very large numbers."
Fagan's says, "this culture of polyamory aggressively fosters the kind of male feminists justly decry: the sexually and physically harassing, the abusing and abandoning male. "Being the natural cost of its defining project, these and related dysfunctions justify and necessitate more safety nets."
Women's Hockey: US Team Knocked Down China Team in 12-1 Score
During preliminary round of the hockey tournament, the Americans knocked out in a 21-1 score over China team. It was the most amazing victory in Olympic women’s hockey history,
According to sources, it was Jenny Potter who got scored on three goals in the first 22 minutes while becoming the leading scorer in U.S. Olympic history. Followed by Meghan Duggan who scored twice for the Americans team.
The U.S team captain, Natalie Darwitz told to reporters: "I think we did a good job playing our game, but at the same time keeping sportsmanship in mind".
The North American crowd roared when Jin threaded a backhand through traffic past Brianne McLaughlin, triumphantly slapping her stick on the ice.
Although the Chinese team skates better than the Slovaks and is much improved from Turin after four more years of international competition, the Americans still were far too much for the club led by Finnish coach Hannu Saintula. China has lost all 20 of its games against the Americans.The Americans outshot China 61-7, scoring five goals in the first period and rarely even allowing a potential scoring rush by the Chinese, who got 49 saves from goalie Shi Yao.
On the first 52 minutes, Molly Schaus played in goal before McLaughlin relieved. Jessie Vetter is expected to be the U.S. goalie in its biggest games.
No less than three minutes , American's team got a spectacular play gaining a high score with Ruggiero, who rushed into the play at mid-ice to scoop up a loose puck, outskated two defenders and fired a low shot underneath Shi. Ruggiero has altered her game in recent years, choosing to join the offensive rush less frequently, but still skates better than all but a handful of women's players.

Haiti Earthquake: There's a sign of hampering the aid effort
Medecins Sans Frontiers, a Geneva-based aid group said that "There is little sign of significant aid distribution." as complained by the leading aid group.
Since the Haitians are desperate for food, water and medical supplies, that desperation has led to violence, forcing police to fire on a crowd of looters. There were also reports of lynch mobs killing looters and setting their bodies on fire.
However, the major difficulty was the bottleneck at the airport. It said a flight carrying its own inflatable hospital was denied landing clearance and was being trucked overland from Santo Domingo, almost 200 miles away in the Dominican Republic, delaying its arrival by 24 hours.
The French, Brazilian and other officials had earlier complained about the airport's refusal to allow their supply planes to land. A World Food Program official told The New York Times that the Americans' priorities were out of sync, allowing too many US military flights and too few aid deliveries.
Alain Joyandet, French co-operation minister, said he had protested to Washington about the US military's management of the airport where he said a French medical aid flight had been turned away.

Gaines Adams Died at 26 by Cardiac Arrest
Greenwood (S.C.) County deputy coroner Marcia Kelley-Clark said: Gaines Adams died Sunday morning after going into cardiac arrest because of an enlarged heart. He had been taken to the emergency room at Self Regional Hospital in Greenwood after going into cardiac arrest at his family's Greenwood home. And He passed away at 7:21 Chicago time.
''I thought it was one of those fake rumors that go around that you find out is a lie,'' said Cleveland Browns wide receiver Chansi Stuckey, who played with Adams at Clemson and remained a close friend.
''This time, it turned out to be a tragedy. I just hope people remember him as the great guy he was.''
Adams, a native of Greenwood, was an All-American for the Tigers before the Tampa Bay Buccaneers made him the fourth overall pick in the 2007 NFL draft. He led all rookies with six sacks that season.
The Bears acquired Adams from the Buccaneers in October for a second-round pick in the 2010 draft. He saw limited action this season but was expected to play a bigger role for the Bears next season.
The former Buccaneers coach and current ''Monday Night Football'' analyst Jon Gruden said.:'I talked to Gaines a couple of weeks ago,'' f''I was telling him about [Bears defensive line coach Rod Marinelli], and he was very excited to get a fresh start, and I know Rod was very excited about working with him this offseason. They had big plans for him. You would've liked Gaines. Everybody who knew Gaines liked Gaines. This is a tragic loss for us all.''
