It is quite exciting to know that you have been selected as your best friend's maid of honor but now you have the most important task for arranging a perfect bachelorette party to your best friend. The party should be such that it is one of the best in your friend's life. Now that you are all geared up to give a stunning party to your lovable friend, you need to be aware as to how to arrange a perfect and enjoyable party. Arranging for a party for your close friend should not be a problem as you would already know her character and personality better.
Plan well ahead
The most important thing to do when it comes to bachelorette party is to plan what you are actually going to do well ahead. It is important that you keep all the important arrangements and have a perfect party plan at hand. If you do not plan beforehand, you will miss out on various crucial areas of the party and even forget to arrange for most important ones. Rush jobs are never perfect and for an event like party one should have a perfect step by step plan. If you could consistently work towards planning, organizing and executing the party, then the bachelorette party is a sure success and your friend is just going to love it.
Select on the venue
Venue plays a crucial role in determining the enjoyment level of a stripper party. It is important that you choose an apt venue that is of your friend's liking, it can be a club, restaurant or any other place she wants.
Include activities
No party is complete without entertainment and fun activities and if you are in a place like Montreal then you would understand well what fun and entertainment really means. You need to be well prepared to face the day with a series of fun activities which includes scavenger hunt and many such fun games.
Theme parties
Theme parties have become a hug hit on a global scale and many people are trying out on this. As part of the theme party, you could arrange for a tarot reading as many women are interested in knowing their future. Spa arrangement can also be made as part of the theme.
Get wilder
If you think that your friend is wild and would definitely want something unconventional in the party, then you could probably arrange for male stripper as well. Montreal is the best place when it comes to strippers, be it male of female and you should not be having any problem in spotting an perfect male stripper for your party.

Savoring a part of Italy where dinner can take all day / Reporter samples the fare of Piedmont's 'slow food' devotees
Published 4:00 am, Sunday, February 26, 2006
2006-02-26 04:00:00 PDT Pollenzo , Italy -- It seemed criminal to spend three weeks in the heart of the Piedmont region, breadbasket of Italy and home turf of some of the world's best beef cattle, bouncing from one Olympic venue to the next, eating little more than half-warmed plates of pasta and panini grabbed on the run.
So we took a small detour from the speed-obsessed Winter Games and sought out a true Piedmont dining experience. The result was another Olympic record for the United States.
Dinner took all day.
In the spirit of the 83,000-member international "Slow Food" movement, which was born in Piedmont, we made sure to consider not only what we were eating, but also where the food came from and how it was produced.

The escapade was arranged with the help of Mark Haskell, a Washington, D.C., chef who runs a food-tourism business called Friends and Food International, which conducts tasting tours of places like Tuscany, Provence and Spanish Catalonia. A Piedmont-born veterinarian, Giovanni Degiorgis, who now lives in Virginia, assisted with the logistics.
After multiple trains, buses and automobiles, we made it about 50 miles from Turin, the capital of Piedmont, to a rural southern district called Cuneo, where dinner's research phase began with a tour of a cattle-breeders center near the town of Fossano, where we were able to rub noses with some prize Piedmont bulls.
Scientists Andrea Albera and Marco Bona of the National Piedmont Cattle Breeders Association explained the advantages of the family-based structure and local distribution system of the Piedmont cattle industry, which makes it fairly easy to keep careful track of animals going back many generations. It's part of an ambitious attempt to improve the Piedmont cattle through selective breeding, keep the local farms healthy -- and ensure the safety of the beef products in the era of mad-cow disease, which hasn't been a problem here.
The cattle are truly special. Because of a peculiar genetic mutation, the cappuccino-colored Piedmontese breed has a small head, thick muscles and low fat content, which translates into a higher yield of meat. A study by University of Nebraska scientists in 1996 compared many cattle breeds around the world, and concluded that Piedmontese cattle "provided the greatest opportunity to produce lean, tender meat."
Albera and Bona had to eat, too, so we agreed to have lunch, as a warm-up to dinner, at Osteria del Borgo, a classic old Piedmont cafe in the little town of Carrù. The meal included a delicious small plate of raw beef ("carne cruda") chopped and mixed with spices and olive oil, followed by selections from prime cuts of boiled beef, including the steaming head of a young bull, wheeled out on a big silver cart. The red wine came from the Langhe, producers of the famous Barolo and Barbaresco, and dessert included a pastry called a "bunet," a name derived from the Piedmont word for hat or bonnet.
"I see more people rediscovering the pleasures of a traditional meal," Bona said. "This is a town of 4,000 people, and we have four very good restaurants here. People in Turin know this restaurant."
Our lunch and morning research phase now ended, Bona drove us to Bra, a bigger town in Cuneo that serves as the headquarters of Slow Food, where we met Carlo Bogliotti, one of the group's organizers.
The office is on the second floor of an old building, surrounding a courtyard, overlooking Slow Food's own restaurant, Boccon Divino.
Bogliotti -- a writer and assistant to the Slow Food founder and president, Carlo Petrini -- said the movement is not only about food, citing the poet Wendell Barry and 19th century French philosophy to make the point that eating is what defines food production, which has a lot to do with what shapes the culture.
"We started 20 years ago as a typical gastronomic association, only interested in food and wine, like many others in the world," he said. "Then suddenly we realized gastronomy is multidimensional. Gastronomy is also anthropology, history, economics, chemistry, politics -- everything concerning food."
Having evolved now into a global powerhouse with a big publishing arm and chapters -- called "convivia" outside Italy -- all over the world, Slow Food has boiled its essential message down into a three-word mantra.
For food to be worth eating, the Slow Food philosophy asserts it must be "good," as in good-tasting and pleasurable to consume; "clean," meaning sustainably produced; and "just," honoring the rights of agricultural workers and traditional cultures.
Food for thought, but a lot to swallow on an empty stomach. So we departed for our final destination -- dinner! -- inside the neo-Gothic Agenzia di Pollenzo, a 170-year-old country estate and office complex, built around a vast courtyard, which once housed a rural administrative agency sponsored by King Carlo Alberto of Savoy.
The complex was recently purchased and renovated by Slow Food to house the four-star Albergo Dell'Agenzia, now full of visitors for the Olympics, as well as the Pollenzo campus of the 2-year-old, Slow Food-sponsored "University of Gastronomic Sciences," where famed Bay Area chef Alice Waters was a guest lecturer in its inaugural year, and a national "wine bank" of the top Italian vintages, stored in a vast cellar like gold bricks at Fort Knox.
Upstairs, we sat down for a half-hour palate-cleansing interview with Vittorio Manganelli, director of the university.
"We want to create the new gastronomy," he said. "Maybe 20 or 30 years ago, we thought a gastronome was someone who eats, and who could decide with his nose or taste, whether this was good, or this was fat, and so on. The new gastronome needs to know how that plate, how that recipe, is constructed."
University student Petra Tanos, 25, born in Hungary but schooled partly in Palo Alto, is on just such a quest, midway through a three-year undergraduate program as part of the university's inaugural student body.
She joined us, at last, for dinner in the hotel restaurant.
Tanos enrolled in the university on impulse, smitten by the Slow Food way of looking at the world, and clearly one who appreciates a good, clean, just meal.
"I'm passionate about food," she said, as the Jerusalem artichokes with traditional bagna caüda Piedmontese sauce arrived. "Food is fundamental to life, and I want to work with it, and be informed about the issues."
The main issues now included how we could even eat anything, because we were having some difficulty digesting the raw beef from lunch. We sampled most of the traditional Piedmontese menu under the hotel's scrubbed old brick arches, starting at the bar with appetizers that included a raw salami, local cheeses and prosciutto. For wine, Tanos had the Langhe Arneis.
Not even hungry by now, we switched to a 2001 Barbera d'Alba and the official Slow Food water, Lurisia, for dinner, and picked at the menu, including tiny handmade raviolis and tajarin pasta in butter and sage sauce, and a tender veal cutlet braised in Barolo wine.
Having already sampled the cold veal served with tuna sauce, a Piedmont specialty, for our lunch warm-up, we skipped that for dinner, as well as the goose with chickpea puree, loin of lamb with thyme, guinea fowl with rosemary, and rabbit "Griglio di Carmagnola" with Roero Arneis wine.
For dessert, some of us looked out the window, pondering vegetarianism and the slow trains and unjust buses it would take to reach the Olympic women's aerials venue in Sauze d'Oulx in time.
Tanos wasn't done yet.
"This is what's so great about being here," she said. "Every meal is like this -- exceptional. It's not just putting some more fuel in your body. A meal is a pleasure. It's exciting. It's wonderful. It's like going on vacation somewhere every time you eat."
For dessert, she chose a light vanilla pudding, sprinkled with nougat and honey, and ate it very slowly.

tune-up screw-up
Changed plugs and plug wires on my explorer and now it runs rough at idle. I triple checked to make sure I've not crossed up plug wires but I haven't. How can I fix this?
6 Answers
Hmh! Does it have coil packs? I bet. I'd say its a coil pack problem? Did your replace them? If not, you could have damaged one while removing... or the boot is damaged. If not. make sure that all the plug wires are seated FIRMLY on the plugs... If that doesn't fix the problem, take it to autozone or a mechanic and have them read the code (I assume your check engine light is on) and narrow it down to the cylnder that is misfiring.
Then run a diagnostic check on the ignition of that cylnder.
or remove each wire individually, look to notice which of any makes no difference on engine performance when you pull them one at a time...each one should make it significantly worse as it adds to the misfires....if it is misfiring, the check engine light WILL BE BLINKING, OR FLASHING. personally maybe knocked a sensor, removed a line from the idle, or not plugged back in the throttle, air box hoses....
Thanks guys. yes it does have a coil pack. I'll check it tomorrow.
Did you gap the spark plugs or just put them in as they came? I would set the gap to whatever is optimal for your engine.
Is the car running worse now than before? If it is it could be the wires. If you still have the old ones, swap them out one at a time to see if it makes a difference. It's the easiest thing to do. Then check the gap on the plugs.

Hey guys. So I start school tomorrow and I'm a wreck. I have OCD and anxiety which is amplifying this ten fold.
Can anyone offer advice or words of comfort? I've been through 2 years of community college, so I shouldn't be scared, but my uni is so damn big and I may get lost and ahhhhhhhhhh!!!
Even my Xanax isn't really helping, which sucks.

AIBU about this woman I keep bumping in to?(54 Posts)
This is a very minor aibu. This woman must live close to us, I see her walking down the road quite a lot.
Incident 1;
I had just had my DS and was BFing in a local cafe. She was there with her little daughter who is very cute but quite obviously totally spoiled. I have just sat down, starting to try and latch baby so I have one boob out, a crying newborn and am wrestling a coverup as well. Her DD comes right up close to me to the point where I could be BFing them both. She sat in my lap. Asks me why is your booby so red? I laughed and said loudly so the mum might intervene, I am trying to get the baby some food at the moment sweetheart, maybe you could give us some room? Then she's trying to cuddle the baby as I'm latching him, kissing his head, almost pulled him off at one point. I looked to the mum who had an inane smile on her face and she said "oh I am pregnant too so she is curious". She didn't ask the little girl to sit down at her table or move or give us a moment or anything. I sort of shifted in my chair and got DS on and then he was covered by the coverup so we had a bit of a chat about local hospitals. Then the little girl started crying about not seeing the baby and I said I'm sorry darling but he is having his milk. Child erupted and mum turned to absolute ice and just wouldn't talk to me again. Pulled daughter away and turned her back to me
Incident 2;
Walking along narrow street, i see her ahead of me, we both have buggies. A family ahead of me were walking and sort of tried to move in for her but not totally as it's a really narrow walk way. This woman refused to stop and the family then walked in the road to let her past and as she passed me (I pulled in to a garden path) she said "too right, hoe rude these people are not to let a buggy past" or similar. But they had let her pass
Incident 3;
Her eldest (the why is your booby so red one) is on the monkey bars. My son is also on the monkey bars. He waits while she has 3/4 turns and then goes to have his go. He's nervous to go anyway as he's scared of heights. She starts shouting that it's not his turn, he has to wait, he's not allowed on the monkey bars etc. Mum and this time Dad are stood there, again with inane looks on their faces smiling at the precious daughter. In absense of any input from them, I said to DS to just go and ignore her as he'd waited nicely, but he doesn't like doing that so tried to rationalise with her saying that she'd had plenty of goes and it was his turn now. After about 5 mins of this and her taking turn after turn, he just took his go. The little girl started screaming and crying actual tears that he wasn't allowed and how DARE he go when she was there first. I went to say to the mum, look be fair, she's had loads of turns and was telling him he wasn't allowed which isn't that nice, but Dad had bundled the child off in his arms and was halfway off across the playground comforting her. Mum gave me a cold stare and walked off.
Have I BU in any of these instances? Or this woman and her husband just entitled and rude? I am going to make sure to say something next time we have any interaction as I am sure this won't be the last time given how often I seem to see her.
Next time just ask them to please parent their child. .
You could offer to email them some instructions. .
She's crazy.
I know it's all really minor but every time I see her I think oh no, you again. She's always in the nice cafe at the top of the road which has toys for the kids but I just know that if I go in, the little girl will start either not sharing or getting up in my baby's face and I just can't be bothered. She is just so odd.
Poor you! They sound difficult, just be proud that your child has manners and rise above it*
*but also make a voodoo effigy of the mother.
They're both delusional. They are both being openly rude, no need to be polite. I like to use the approach of talking to the parents through their child or my own child. I.e. Go on DS, it's your go and the little girl needs to share. She has had loads of turns, and it is now your turn as you waited so patiently.
Any sane parent would then step in, and ask their child to take turns. You might need to start telling the child straight, as if parenting your own child, as it seems the little darling doesn't get that from her own parents.
How sorry I feel for her daughter s future teachers.
Just be really blunt the next time and they will learn to back off
There is one like this near me
Lets her son stay on the rocking horse at the playground for about 40 minutes (!!!) whilst other children are waiting. She sheepishly says 'sorry I can't tell him what to do'
I am horrible though and said well don't be surprised when he grows up to steal out your purse.
I don't think its appropriate to be calling a curious child odd.
I can understand the no you again thoughts, however. Some people do grate on your last nerve.
but she's not odd wanting to cuddle the baby ect. Little girls are like that aren't they.
The mother does sound very odd though.
I recognise her sort and lately seen more and more of them using their prams as weapons and deliberately running other people off the pavement. I have had men pushing prams running them into me as they refuse to move out the way. What is this rise in obnoxious parents? That would have been considered a no no when my kids were younger. Aggressive pram use, a sign of the times!
About the not sharing the monkey bars. They do need to be parenting her and teaching her to share.
Bacon. I'm sorry I can't tell him what to do.... . What's he going to be like at 15. She damn well can and should tell him what to do. Its called being a parent.
I meant the mum was odd, not the daughter. Although the daughter is quite obviously given everything she ever wants immediately, even if that is sitting millimetres from a strangers lactating breast.
Message withdrawn at poster's request.
She sounds entitled. Just ignore and tell your DS to ignore if possible. If he is really keen on something help him navigate and support him while avoiding conflict, i.e. " Come DS I will help you have a go at the monkey bars", and once he has had a go, "do you want to try the slide/swing/whatever else could be fun." and move on.
I'm pregnant or I'd have lifted him up to the monkey bars. I asked him if he sees that little girl often and he said yes she is always yelling.
I feel really quite sorry for the daughter- imagine growing up thinking that sort of behaviour is ok?
She's self-centred and rude. What's the betting she's an only child herself?
Just look out for the little girl in 6-9 months time; her baby sibling will have arrived and she will be fucking FURIOUS. I'd avoid the child at that particular stage of their lives, given she's so good-natured already
Aww I wouldn't have minded the boob bit as I love it when wee ones can see a baby being breastfed and actually volunteered to BF in a local primary class to let children see a baby (well dd was 11 months by then!) being breastfed.
But. The rest- she is obviously indulged and the parents haven't a clue how to manage her. I would carry on as you are but enable your child to have the fair turns on park equipment etc by saying "well done for waiting until Mary had finished- now Mary can you watch johnny while he has his turn then its you again" type thing- model positive instruction discipline and direction? As she clearly won't see it at home!!
YANBU. They all sound like entitled, spoilt little brats!
Aggressive pram use, a sign of the times
No, it was going on well before I had my ds who is 14. I used to hate having my ankles wacked by someone with a pram behind me. The only difference was that they were generally smaller, the Maclaren umbrella folding type, not the huge ones people have now. It's like cars really, people seem to think the larger the better.
As for the little girl being curious not odd, if someone else's child who I didn't know got into my lap, I would fairly unceremoniously remove them again! Sounds like the OP is far too polite.
Poor kid she's in for a shock when the baby is born. Avoid as much as possible is the only thing to do as the mother sounds crazy. She's setting her child up for a world of grief. Sad really. Wait till you get to the playground at school - that should be interesting and hopefully they won't be together. Some children are just never told no.
Isadora2007, I didn't mind her sitting next to me as I agree, the more BF is normalised the better. But she wanted to be on my lap and I just didn't have room for my own DS and a four year old who belonged to someone else plus she pulled DS off and getting him to latch was always the hard bit.
I find both parents almost agressively docile iyswim. Like they are waiting for a challenge and because they are so entitled, they assume they are hard done by every time and are waiting to respond to someone. The way she reacted to the nice family for instance

One of our big projects this summer was going to be getting our furry kids ready for Garrett. I was a little worried about what might happen when we brought him home. The dogs are definitely crazy...BUT I do have to say, I think they've come a long way. They've been really good company for me being stuck in the house. They are still out of control when people come over - we're working on that! I think they'll make good big brothers, though...

Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation
ESTEVAN, SASKATCHEWAN, December 1, 2017 — The governments of Canada and Saskatchewan are working with Habitat for Humanity and its partners to help Saskatchewan people in greatest housing need and to strengthen communities.
Today, the Honourable Ralph Goodale, Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness, on behalf of the Honourable Jean-Yves Duclos, Minister of Families, Children and Social Development and Minister Responsible for Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC), Lori Carr, Member of the Legislative Assembly for Estevan, on behalf of the Honourable Paul Merriman, Minister of Social Services and Minister responsible for Saskatchewan Housing Corporation (SHC), His Worship Roy Ludwig, Mayor of the City of Estevan, and Kelly Holmes-Binns, Chief Executive Officer of Habitat for Humanity Regina (Habitat), celebrated the opening of a new Habitat for Humanity home for a local family in the community of Estevan.
"There is a great deal of work and cooperation that takes place during Habitat for Humanity builds, such as this one. Our Government is proud to be partner. The investments in these new homes will make a real difference in the lives of two families, a place they can proudly call their own."
— Honourable Ralph Goodale, Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness
"Shelter is one of our basic needs, yet many of us take it for granted. We are proud of the work that Estevan Habitat for Humanity along with our community volunteers have accomplished. I would also like to thank our federal and provincial counterparts for their generous contributions to help make this project possible."
— His Worship Roy Ludwig, Mayor, City of Estevan
"A home creates a lasting impact for families and communities. This house, and the work and caring that created it, reflects the belief of Habitat and its partners that no one can do this alone. Our government is pleased to work with Habitat to make homeownership a reality for low-income Saskatchewan families, and to continue to keep Saskatchewan strong."
— Lori Carr, Member of the Legislative Assembly for Estevan
"We are so excited to welcome our first Habitat Estevan homeowners into our family today. The Habitat for Humanity Regina affiliate has now built 20 homes in five communities outside of Regina and we're so proud to celebrate with Habitat Estevan as they successfully complete their first home. The issue of affordable housing exists in all communities and we will continue to encourage a hand up with homeownership throughout Southern Saskatchewan. Thank you to the sponsors, donors, individuals, volunteers and Habitat Estevan Chapter who have made this dream a reality."

My ISTJ grandfather was not "artistic" at all, though, unless you count the fact that he was a well-groomed snazzy dresser and he liked picking out pretty dresses for his wife and daughters and granddaughters...I would call him the more traditional image of a very practical ISTJ rather than a real aesthete or artist, though he liked people to dress nicely. He also used to buy me these collector's item porcelain dolls. Selecting and collecting and taste , again, rather than raw manipulation of artistic materials.
Not to say that there aren't SJ painters and writers, because there are of course. William Wordsworth was an ISFJ poet.
I still think Melancholic makes more sense for Si types in general, including INFPs with their tert Si.
EDIT: Maybe that's it! Maybe it's Si/Fi or Fi/Si...hmmm...

I_F_ Melancholic
I_T_ Phlegmatic
E_F_ Choleric
E_T_ Sanguine
The original definitions of the temperaments:
Sanguine: expressive, people focused
Choleric: expressive, task focused
Melancholy: reserved, task focused
Supine: reserved, people focus
Phlegmatic: moderate in both scales, but ends up closest to Supine in behavior (peaceful, etc); basically a more calm version of it. So it appeared to fit the "reserved, people focused" slot, relative to the others.
The easiest correlation is in the Interaction Styles, which use I/E (reserved/expressive), and directing/informing (task/people; which is T/F for S's, and J/P for N's).
Get Things Going (ESF/ENP): extravert (E), informing (F/P) Sanguine
In Charge (EST/ENJ): extravert (E), directing (T/J) Choleric
Chart the course (IST/INJ): introvert (I), directing (T/J) Melancholic
Behind the Scenes (ISF/INP): introvert (I), informing (F/P) Phlegmatic or Supine
Keirsey's temperaments are "blind" to I/E, but I've found that the "expressive/reserved" (I/E) counterparts for them are Cooperative/Pragmatic, tying together SJ with NF and SP with NT. Like I/E, they do shape how aggressive or passive a person is in situations (like Keirsey's descriptions "do what's right" vs "do what works").
People/task is Berens' motive/structure, tying SP with NF and SJ with NT.
Artisan (SP): pragmatic, motive focused (Sanguine)
Rational (NT): pragmatic, structure focused (Choleric)
Guardian (SJ): cooperative, structure focused (Melancholic)
Idealist (NF): cooperative, motive focused (Phlegmatic or Supine)
(Keirsey reversed the Galen correlations of NT and NF from defining them by certain aspects of the behavior)
So each type is a blend of temperaments. There will be seven types associated with each temperament. Three conative, three affective, and one that is both. This is the "pure" temperament type.
I see people are trying to make S/N a "classic" temperament factor (apparently, factored with I/E), but S/N does not correspond to people/task. Where S/N came in, was in the "conative" (leadership style, basically) systems Keirsey used, beginning with Plato's four types of men, and especially through Kant and Kretschmer, the perceptive factor tied together what were opposites in Galen's system. Sanguine and Melancholic are "observant" (S), and Choleric and Phlegmatic are "imaginative" (N).
Now this is on the conative level only. The "affective" (social) level Galen used, is completely "blind" to S/N. That's why each Interaction Style is defined by two possible code sets: one "S" letter combination and one "N" combination. They are equally split between S and N, and it is the conative temperament in the mix that determines which set of codes the type will have.
(EI + SN (ES, IS, EN, IN) are called "learning styles" by Nardi (Neuroscience of Personality, p. 158))
These are the resultant correlations, which generally seem to work, with perhaps some variation at times, (especially since there's also a third area of temperament not covered in type):

If I was choosing one MBTI type for each of the four temperaments in its purest form, I think choleric would correspond to ENTJ, sanguine to ESFP, phlegmatic to ISTP, and melancholic to INFJ.
This is because:
•Cholerics and sanguines are extroverted (E), while phlegmatics and melancholics are introverted (I).
•Cholerics and melancholics tend to be thoughtful about the future or the deeper meaning (N), while sanguines and phlegmatics tend to live in the present (S).
•Cholerics and phlegmatics are more practical and unemotional (T), while sanguines and melancholics are more emotional (F).
•Cholerics and melancholics are more organized and planned (J), while sanguines and phlegmatics are more casual and unplanned (P).
•The descriptions of these MBTI types on http://www.16personalities.com/ really fit the classic four temperament personalities, especially the ENTJ/choleric and ESFP/sanguine.
ISTJ is the pure Melancholic and INFP is Phlegmatic. (or Supine)
Melancholy is actually very "concrete" (down-to-earth) focused, and relies on familiarity (introverted Sensing). They hate "abstraction" when forced on them.
Now, an INFJ is Melancholic on the surface (Chart the Course—INJ; Interaction Styles each have both an S and N counterpart), so will fit that "future" or "deeper meaning". A mature totally ISTJ with a developed inferior will be more like that as well.
ISTJ's, especially females, often have a strong tertiary Fi that makes them very in touch with their emotions.
Phlegmatic is really inbetween, but they are "diplomatic", "democratic" and peace-desiring (abstract ideals) like NF (Keirsey overlooked this on making the NF "Choleric" and the NT "Phlegmatic"). Again, since Phlegmatic has low energy, he doesn't look "emotional", like is people expect of a Feeler, but is inbetween; "take-it"or"leave-it".
Think of it this, way, as I just learned. Technically, a pure Phlegmatic would be "XXXX", but that isn't allowed, so when people get 50% on all four dichotomies, the scale is tipped in favor of I, N, F and P (because it is assumed people in this society are generally pressured toward E, S, T and J).
Right, on the ENTJ and ESFP.APS Profile: Inclusion: e/w=1/6 (Supine) |Control: e/w=7/3 (Choleric) |Affection: e/w=1/9 (Supine)
Ti 54.3 | Ne 47.3 | Si 37.8 | Fe 17.7 | Te 22.5 | Ni 13.4 | Se 18.9 | Fi 27.9

I see what you mean. But I think of melancholics as philosophical and reflective, and even if they aren't always, they're usually described as "analytical" - which I think suggests intuition over sensing. If I'm wrong about them being emotional, could the pure melancholic type perhaps be INTJ?
As for phlegmatic, it's hard. Phlegmatics are supposed to be observant, so I would think they'd be S. I guess ISFP could work, although that type is known for being artistic, which isn't a quality that's generally ascribed to phlegmatics.
It's surprising how much harder this is for the introverted temperaments than for the extroverted ones. It seems like we can both agree that I and J go with melancholic and I and P go with phlegmatic, though.

After choir practice, I was running home when I decided to stop at the Italian Festival. Preston Street was blocked off and ppl were walking, dancing and listening to bands on the street. I listened to a local group playing Italian favourites, rock, polka, Latino and all kinds of music. One of the couple dancing on the street caught my attention. It was obvious the two women had studio training. The "man" (she dressed like one) was doing a good job accompanying her more feminine companion who was wearing a twirling white dress and high heels. The latter had good form, rhythm, and spirit.
Anyway, I stayed for almost two hours, bought a porchetta, resumed my running, and arrived home at around 00h30. As I said previously, I like partying and fully enjoyed myself last night !!!
