dox communities. Yet for many young
newlyweds, romance and intimacy are mysteries.The book's co-author, David
S. Ribner, said it is meant to offer useful information to couples
both before their wedding night, an emotional time when they are expected
to consummate their marriage, and during their relationship leading up to
that, when they might face a slew of unfamiliar challenges."If you've never
seen a picture, if you've never talked about it, if you've never
seen a movie, if you've never had a conversation with parents or
friends, how exactly are you supposed to know the mechanics of that
particular activity?" said Ribner, an American-born sex therapist whose
Jerusalem clientele is made up of Orthodox Jews. Ribner's co-author is educator
Jennie Rosenfeld.Unlike secular Israelis, observant Jews are rarely given
sex education until the weeks leading up to their marriage, where the
prospective bride and groom are counseled separately on a variety of subjects,
including the logistics of intercourse, the importance of communication
and religious bedroom requirements and rituals.Ribner said the content of
the counseling is not always consistent, and couples don't receive all the
information they need to enjoy a healthy sex life.His book attempts to
set out in clear terms the nitty-gritty of sex, from foreplay and
kissing to mechanics, specifically aimed at young adults who are making
the transition from a life where sex is taboo to marriag
ial activities."Roughly
half the department budget pays staff, which is far more than at
other agencies. The department argues that the sequester cuts, then, have
a significant impact on services -- seasonal hiring, for instance, had to
be drastically cut back, which impacts programs at national parks. Federal
agencies have each responded differently to the sequester. The Federal Aviation
Administration rattled lawmakers after it furloughed air traffic controllers,
leading to delays at major U.S. airports. Congress, though, intervened by
allowing the FAA to move money around, in turn canceling those furloughs.The
private business community also has stepped in. At Yellowstone National
Park, two cities stepped up when the National Park Service decided to
save money by plowing snow two weeks later than usual. This would
have delayed the clearing of four park gates well past the typical
May 1 opening, so city officials held a fundraiser and collected enough
money to pay the state to clear the roads, ensuring the gates
will be open on time.Coburn cited this as a positive example in
his letter, and urged the department to find more savings."I believe the
Department can continue to maintain this same level access even under sequestration,"
he wrote. "To accomplish this, the Department must prioritize its core mission,
eliminate unnecessary, wasteful, and duplicative programs, and find innovative
ways to do more with less."
