We had to build things Ed knew a lot about,” Mr. Hauser, who died in 2021, said in an interview in 2015. “We were starting something very new, a first effort to do pay TV. It was the beginning of the modern cable business, and Ed loved it.” After joining Warner Bros., he worked closely with Gustave Hauser, who built the innovative cable system QUBE for Warner Bros. In 1977, QUBE, based in Columbus, Ohio, introduced pay-per-view programs, special-interest cable networks and interactive services. Mr. Bleier’s biggest contributions came at Warner Bros. Answering a call from Steven J. Ross, the New York parking lot magnate who bought Warner Brothers studio in 1969, Mr. Bleier signed on to run the New York programming and sales office. As Mr. Ross built the company, Mr. Bleier became a trusted adviser, shaping the strategy for taking the company into cable television and new digital media. The APA was the only major organization of health professionals to see no ethical problem with the torture program. Can we stop acting as if not dying is an option? Listen carefully, and you'll hear people say things like, "If I die, I want it to be painless." If? There is no "if" about it.

Edward Bleier, who brought Bugs Bunny, Porky Pig and other Looney Tunes characters to generations of Saturday morning TV viewers before becoming a prime mover in the rise of cable television and the transformation of Time Warner Cable into an industry giant, died on Tuesday at his home in East Hampton, N.Y. He turned 94 the day before. Edward, who attended public schools, had his first taste of journalism as a high school stringer for city newspapers, including The New York Times. Love for your spouse, no matter how profound and sincere, will probably not eliminate your innate yearning for erotic novelty. Christopher Ryan caused a whole lot of trouble with this one in 2010, but he also got a lot of people to think. Similarly, since hunter-gatherers didn’t settle, they didn’t own much, neither possessions, nor “people” in the form oflong-term partners.A former journalist who began his career in newspapers and radio, Mr. Bleier was an innovator who foresaw industry-changing technologies and the need for fresh content to serve the emerging cable television market. At ABC and later at Warner Bros. Television, he gained a reputation for imaginative but also practical strategic thinking that helped usher in a new television era.

Because of men’s high testosterone levels and their (especially today) often competitive behavior around women, the message we receive in public and the media is that women are prudes and less hungry for sex. Women take longer to orgasm and can have sex longer to maximize potential partners for a successful impregnation.Simultaneously to the creation of marriage and the family,the notion arose that women’s libido is lower than men’s. My wife and I have been married for more than 10 years, but recently our sex drives have gone in different directions. My desire to have sex with her is increasing, but this is not reciprocated. She has said we can have sex only at the weekend, but that it should not be planned as she prefers spontaneity. Given that we have two children with lots of hobbies and activities, as well as our own interests, the opportunities for even planned sex are limited . I find myself getting tense at the thought of no intimacy and it can feel quite stressful as the weekend progresses. Any suggestion that we could do it on a weekday is immediately rejected. I love my wife deeply and find her even more attractive than when we met. But this situation is very difficult and I am not prepared to have an unsatisfying sex life for ever . We can't know someone's inner nature and intentions based solely upon the content of their outbursts. Edward Bleier was born in New York City on Oct. 16, 1929, to Philip and Cecile (Richter) Bleier. His family lived in a small apartment off the Grand Concourse in the Bronx before moving to the Laurelton section of Queens, where he grew up. His father, a son of Viennese immigrants, trained as a lawyer but became an insurance broker. His mother, a homemaker, had immigrated from Belarus. Maybe the most important point of the book is this: Don’t take sex so seriously, see it as the biological impulse it is and respect that your sometimes odd sexual behavior is a remnant of the past.

Sentence-Summary: Sex at Dawnchallenges conventional views on sex by diving deep into our ancestors’ sexual history and the rise of monogamy, thus prompting us to rethink our understanding of what sex and relationships should really feel and be like. He remained devoted to Syracuse University. In 2005, its Center for the Study of Popular Television, part of the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications, was renamed the Bleier Center for Television and Popular Culture thanks to a large donation from Mr. Bleier. Those who had more land, or a bigger farm, were more prosperous. The tendency to try and own as much as possible brought out greed and jealousy in humans. He helped guide the company into partnerships with American Express and later Time Inc. In 1990, Warner Cable became Time Warner Cable. (It was acquired by Charter Communications in 2016, becoming the nation’s second-largest cable operator, after Comcast.) Until he retired from Time Warner in 2005, Mr. Bleier continued to explore new digital media markets, including one for on-demand content delivered through the internet. Even into his 80s he continued to consult with the company. Sadly, we’ve gotten to a point where a lot of women comply. Lesson 3: Our bodies are made forsexual competition.
