orgasm

A complex reaction involving physical reflexes and powerful emotions. It often lasts from a few seconds to a minute or more and is followed by a feeling of physical and emotional relaxation and relief. Female orgasm exists in a great variety of forms, ranging from a single episode of mildly pleasurable rhythmic contraction of the uterine and vaginal walls to multiple episodes of extreme intensity that involve the entire body and can last for minutes or reoccur for hours. Male orgasm also exists in a great variety of intensity, duration and frequency patterns. For men, orgasm is usually precipitated by a series of penile thrusts and accompanied by rhythmic contractions of the prostate and muscles surrounding the penis, elevation of the testes, and ejaculation. During orgasm a male's heart reaches 140 beats per second.

Quarterdeck

Quarterdeck

The quarter deck is the upper deck aft of the superstructure or, on ships with flightdecks, aft of the flight deck area. The name derives from the great men o' war; the quarterdeck was a raised section of the upper deck at the after end, where the helm position was. A service member always salutes the quarterdeck when coming aboard or proceeding ashore, as a mark of respect. The origin of this custom is somewhat obscure, but is thought to come from the location of the tabernacle, which is where the ship's chaplain kept the consecrated bread, which in the Christian faith is considered to be the body of Christ; thus, the salute was a mark of respect to the visible presence of God onboard. Another theory is that, as this is where the ship's master would be in battle, the authority of command was in that particular place.
