There is a common belief that having sex during menstruation is associated with witchcraft. However, this belief is rooted more in cultural and religious taboos than in actual witchcraft practice. In many cultures, menstruation is considered a time of impurity or uncleanliness, leading to the idea that engaging in sexual activities during this time could be seen as a form of witchcraft or black magic..
Like the Lynx, the Sparks might not be in the race for a championship, but it would be a positive thing for Los Angeles just to return to the playoffs. They missed the postseason the last two years, and 2023 was especially dismal for the Sparks. Offseason moves to acquire center Liz Cambage and guard Chennedy Carter didn't work out, coach/GM Derek Fisher was fired in June and the team seemed in a downward spiral.
The Mercury went through an emotional hurricane last season, with Griner detained in Russia, a new coach in Vanessa Nygaard, Tina Charles contract divorce at midseason, and Skylar Diggins-Smith leaving the team for personal reasons in the last week of the regular season. The Aces offseason wasn t all sunshine, as former player Dearica Hamby alleged she had been treated unprofessionally and unethically by the Aces when she was traded to the Sparks in January, while still pregnant.

Project 2004 Liberty pickup
Original plan of what I had in store for my very first Jeep Liberty pickup project.
2" lift/level kit
Find or make a real front bumper
Gut the interior from the B-pillar back
Cut off the roof along the bottom of window line all the way to the tailgate
Make a "pickup" bed from B-pillar back
Weld rear doors to the rear quarter panel
31" or 33" tractor tires
Lincoln locker in rear
Lunchbox locker up front
Possibly 5.13 gears
Reduce weight by 500-1,000 lbs
John Deere green/yellow paint
Give profdlp credit for green done arrows
6 out of 12 done in the first month, yippee! I did take two weeks off from tinkering the the Jeep around Christmas.
So the easy parts have been done. Next few items will be a little more challenging but just as exciting. Mostly because they require time consuming fit and finish cosmetic work.
NEW PLAN:
Widen rear wheel wells
Mount JK front bumper
Finish final fit of bed liner
Lincoln locker in rear
Find new front left fender and flare
Box in back of cab
Weld and build bed top/side rails
John Deere green/yellow paint
Make a functional sunroof
Other considerations:
Lunchbox locker up front
B-Pillar roll bar
4-pont roll cage
4.88 or 5.13 gears
Relocate rear hitch
Front hitch
Wish me luck, just kidding there is no luck involved here, chime in with any feedback and most important of all: enjoy the build and shenanigans!
The Lynx lost legendary center Sylvia Fowles to retirement. But with star forward Napheesa Collier back after missing most of last season on maternity leave, the Lynx might be ready to assume their more familiar place higher in the standings. Guard Tiffany Mitchell is looking for a fresh start after playing her first seven seasons in Indiana. No. 2 draft pick Diamond Miller could be one of the most exciting rookies in the league, and the kind of dynamic wing the Lynx need.

Reviews for "Shedding Light on the Misunderstandings: Demystifying Menstruation and Witchcraft"
1. John - 2/5: While I appreciate the unique angle and attempt to explore societal taboos, "Is it considered witchcraft to have sex on your period" ultimately fell flat for me. The writing felt disjointed and lacked a clear focus. The author seemed more interested in shock value than providing meaningful insights or engaging storytelling. Additionally, some chapters felt out of place and disrupted the flow of the narrative. Overall, I was disappointed and would not recommend this book.
2. Sarah - 1/5: I had high hopes for "Is it considered witchcraft to have sex on your period," but unfortunately, it did not deliver. The author's attempt at blending romance, fantasy, and social commentary felt forced and pretentious. The characters were one-dimensional, and the dialogue often came across as unnatural. Moreover, the book's numerous grammatical errors were distracting and took away from any enjoyment I could have derived from the story. This was a disappointment, and I would not recommend it to others.
3. Alex - 3/5: "Is it considered witchcraft to have sex on your period" is an ambitious attempt to tackle a taboo subject, and while I appreciate the effort, it left a lot to be desired. The pacing was inconsistent, making it difficult to stay engaged with the story. The lack of character development also made it challenging to connect with the protagonists. However, I must acknowledge the novel's unique perspective and thought-provoking themes. It's not a book I would read again, but I can see why some readers might find it intriguing.
