Book: "Say It Daddy: 30 Ways to Speak Love into your Daughter's Heart"
About the Author: Mark Huckaby is the spiritual growth pastor at Life Church in Rome. He is also a partner with A1 Quality Home Inspection and will begin as an adjunct professor at Shorter University in February 2013. He lives in Rome with his wife Krista. They have two daughters, Taylor and Tia.
About the book: In "Say It Daddy," Huckaby uses personal experiences and anecdotes to encourage fathers to nurture their daughters through affirmations that will build her character, confidence and her sense of self. With chapters such as "You're a Gift," "You're Different," "You're One of a Kind," and "You're Strong," Huckaby explains how he learned (and continues to learn) the ins and outs of being a dad to girls and saying the right things to them.
"It all comes from my own experience and convictions," he said. "I wanted to help dads. This is written as a practitioner. I've done it. I've succeeded at some things, failed at some things. The proof is in the two young ladies I'm blessed to call my daughters."
From "Say It Daddy": Discover what is different about your daughter and feed that part of her. Is it music? Get her an instrument. Does she sing? Buy her a microphone. Provide lessons for her. What else? Believe me, there's nothing like her.
Encourage the "differents" as well as the "difference" in her. Boys can't do what she does (regardless what the culture says.) She's different.
"Tell her there's nothing or no one like her. There's not, really. I'll repeat this statement time and time again, "You must believe this stuff." If you don't you have no right to say it. A kind word without heart is flattery and fluff. Your girl might not believe what you say about her, but she should believe that YOU believe what you say about her."
Where to get the book: "Say It Daddy," is available locally at Heaven's Attic in the Local Authors section. It is also available online at amazon.com.

(Australia, United States of America 1960– )
61.0 x 76.0cm image (irreg.); 72.0 x 101.5cm sheet; 90.4 x 103.8 x 2.1cm frame
Tracey Moffatt's photographic practice is firmly entrenched within the narrative and stylistic lexicon of television, film and media culture. Much of her work is based on recollections of media images from 'a whole 1960s childhood and 1970s adolescence [spent] glued to the television or with my nose in a book'.1 She typically uses photography to raid the image banks of popular culture and personal memory, recasting familiar visual codes with an acutely critical edge. For example, her well-known 1989 series, 'Something more', draws on the imagery of B-grade films of the 1950s and the racy covers of schlock novels of the 1960s; while 'Scarred for life' 1994, references the photojournalism and photo essays of 'Life' magazine.
Like 'Something more', 'Up in the sky' returns to the subject of race and violence, presenting a loose narrative set against the backdrop of an outback town, 'a place of ruin' and devastation populated by misfits and marginal characters. Unlike previous series, it was shot on location and dispenses with the scenography which is a feature of her earlier work. 'Up in the sky' is one of Moffatt's larger photographic series and takes many of its visual cues from Pier Paolo Pasolini's masterpiece of Italian modernist cinema 'Accattone' 1961. The story hinges on a triangular mixed-race relationship. Of this work Moffatt has said: 'My work is full of emotion and drama, you can get to that drama by using a narrative, and my narratives are usually very simple, but I twist it … there is a storyline, but … there isn't a traditional beginning, middle and end.'2

Hi everyone!
My name is Stacy and I'd really like to try and go 100% raw again. I started in February and have lost 33lbs since. Around Easter, I started eating cooked SAD foods and during finals (I'm a college student) I was not prepared at all. I ate nothing but frozen entrees and candy. Along with this, I lost motivation. However, although the food taste good and it was a nice break from my repetitive raw meals I did not feel good. I was not thriving like I was when I first started.
So, I'm ready to get down to it. I have been preparing myself mentally and recently began meditating. Although my summer is going to be super busy, for some reason I feel like I have peace in my life. It's weird. But anyway, I was thinking of doing a 30 day green smoothie challenge. I'd like to drink at least green smoothie a day. I'd love if others would join me! I plan on logging in everyday and posting the kind of smoothie I'll be consuming as well as the other raw foods I'll be eating through out the day.

How to Get Over the Past

The chair had been in the family for 25 years and still had good bones. It would be nice to have a new chair with old memories.
What I learned is that upholstering a piece of furniture is just a big puzzle. I didn't create a full tutorial since every chair is different, but the following things would be the same for any chair that you are working on.
1. Take the chair apart completely.
2. Re-use what you can. (Hardware, piping, etc.)
3. Make new fabric pieces by using the old ones as a pattern and replace batting and foam if necessary.
4. Carefully start putting the chair back together, starting with the piece you took off last and ending with the piece you took off first.
Here is how my project went.
Taking the Chair Apart
I vacuumed everything out of the chair. The needles, toothpicks, staples, etc. I also inspected the wooden frame to make sure nothing was broken or warped. It was in perfect condition.
I kept the original fabric stretcher strips, the foam cushions, wood tack strips and the piping from the chair. I just cut out the casing and pulled the piping out.

Police have received 40 theft reports this year - including 21 in the last month.
"They've seen these just skyrocket in the last month," said Fontana police Sgt. Robert Morris.
Mostly businesses have been targeted, but the devices have also been stolen from city property. Backflow devices, which prevent water from returning back through a water system, cost about $1,000 to replace. They are typically used in irrigation systems.
And the number of thefts occurring in the Fontana could actually be higher.
"I can't tell you how many private (property) thefts there have been because people didn't report it," Morris said.
The problem has become such a headache that the city installed motion-sensor cameras at the corner of Base Line and Locust Avenue. On Saturday, that move paid off.
The camera captured a man stealing a backflow device from city property about 10 p.m. He broke into a metal cage to get to the part, police said.
Having a photo of someone in the act is an asset police don't have in the other incidents.
"This photo is probably one of the biggest breaks we've had in a while," Morris said.
Police have tried stopping by recycling yards to try to find the stolen parts and trace them back to the thieves, but sometimes the thieves go to other jurisdictions in an attempt to cover their tracks.
Anyone with information is asked to call Fontana police at 909-350-7700 or the department tip line at 909-356-TIPS.

As a full-time stay at home mom I find this article lacking focus. Moms' can have long hair, and often may choose to do so. Why all the negative attention on moms? I feel like I can still do sexy even though I'm not "supposed to" for some reason?

I will never get a 'Mom" cut! I cut my hair short one time when I was 17 and never again will I do it again! My hair has always been long and even if I am 60 it will stay that way! It all depends on how you style it.

Why do you have to cut your hair shorter as you get older? I really think that's outdated! Your hair should be a reflection of you and how you feel, not a number.

Ok, big problem Christina Hendricks hair is NOT a natural shade of red at all. I am a hairdresser, for 19yrs, never have I seen a natural redhead that shade. NEVER. Also what if in your 30s you look young and want a wild hair color?? Please YOURSELF, you only have one life.

Haha i do love the dont do braids part... braids dont look good on anyone in my opinion except a child. after you turn 16 you should forget braids. And older women truthfully look alot prettier and more elegant with long hair. I dont think extremely short hair looks good on anyone but men.

This article made me laugh. Pretty much cuts out any hairstyle other than long, straightened hair. As if all guys are that lame and conventional. Wear your hair however it suits you, and if you feel gorgeous, a guy will think you're gorgeous, too.

Most of it depends on your face shape. Some people look better with short and vice versa. But shiny healthy hair looks good for everyone. Drew's hair always looks bad to me.

Of all the stupid crap. This is 2011, not 1911. Why do so many women think they have to slavishly listen to what men thinks re: their looks? As for meeting men in a bar... Don't even get me started! You're not going to find quality men in the bar. At any rate, I say that if the man can't accept the woman AS SHE IS, he's not worth giving the time of day to.
by ladedah Tuesday, December 13, 2011 at 10:33AM Report as inappropriate
Most of this, I think, is very good advice for everyone. Damaged hair doesn't look good on anyone and it is always beneficial to have shiny, healthy hair. I think a lot of women can pull of a short hair cut with out looking older. Some women look younger when they chop off their hair. It really depends on the person. On the other hand, I do agree about the crazy hair color. It is okay to have fun with your hairstyle in your 30's, but I think crazy colors are a little immature.

Short hair does not necessarily make you look older, pixie cuts can be adorable & age appropriate on any age woman. I find sometimes that long hair that is on the very long side can even make someone in their 30's look hag-like....Bottom line to me is it depends on your face & hair type as what can look best.

It's articles like these that really pigeonhole women. What we're "supposed" to look like. Do whatever you like and what works for you.

Multiple CSS Files for one website.
Real quick question for ya'll. I'm a new web designer and was wondering if having multiple CSS files (like 3-5) was common for a regular web site.
Is it? How many is common? When I'm fiddling with designs I often make a css file for the home page, about, contact, etc...
Any advice on this is much appreciated. Thanks!What you're suggesting (one for home, contact, etc) is extremely uncommon, if not unheard of.
Some people may have 1-3 CSS files (main, lightbox, ie).
You should never have different CSS files for different pages in the site.1-3 is common then?
I was just wondering. I'm new so I was just making styles for all my pages. Thanks for the your input!"GreyFox135" said:1-3 is common then?
I was just wondering. I'm new so I was just making styles for all my pages. Thanks for the your input!
I wouldn't necessarily say 1-3 is "common". 1 is common.
Your ENTIRE site should essentially be in one stylesheet. Then you'll have addons like a lightbox download that has a separate CSS file, or sometimes you'll need a separate stylesheet for ie6.your whole site, every page's id's classes should be on the one CSS file.
remember you can re-use Id'd on instance per page or if your going to have more instances of the same thing (I.E. links, all links should look the same) then use classes - style accordingly.
you may have a style sheet for the web page screen, a CSS for Print, A CSS for maybe problematic IE6, if neccissary (hopefully not)
let your coding work for you, don't over code, it saves time and makes the site look uniformThanks for your replies guys! I really appreciate all your input.
You guys are awesome!

Is HP developing Android tablets?
Dylan McGrath
The development, reported by tech blog site ReadWrite, would be a major course change for HP. The firm scrapped its TouchPad tablet in August 2011, 48 days after its high-profile launch, despite positive reviews.
TouchPad ran ran the webOS operating system HP acquired when it bought Palm. At the time it discontinued the TouchPad, HP announced that it would continue to develop webOS as an open-source platform and would continue to use the OS in tablets.
Since then, though, a number of compelling new Android tablets have hit stores and proven to be popular. For the first time, Android tablets are collectively threatening Apple's stronghold on the tablet market. The report, if accurate, could signal that HP has concluded it can't compete with Android tablets with products based on webOS.
Many developers had at one time clamored for webOS tablets. But, by now, developers as a group are getting pretty comfortable with Android.
According to the ReadWrite report, the first HP Android tablet will be a high-end tablet featuring Nvidia Corp.'s Tegra 4 applications processor. The report, which cites anonymous sources, indicates that this first Android tablet could be announced soon. The report also indicates that it could be one of the first tablets on the market to feature Tegra 4.

Totally pointless for HP to do this. Android tablet ASP has been lowered to a point(thanks to google nexus/Kindle), where a company like HP, cant make any money just by doing hardware alone. To make any money from a tablet, you need the entire eco system or atleast scale. Only Apple/Google/Amazon/Samsung has it.
What HP could do is to make their Win 8 tablets, dual boot to Android. Which gives it some interesting value proposition. ie play tablet, that can be converted to a serious work tablet when needed.
I think that HP could probably sell Android tablets to some of their enterprise customers. Contrary to popular belief on this forum there are applications for tablets "to do real work" that don't require Microsoft Office. HP could sell custom "Apps" and services (like cloud storage) for Android tablets. And there could be spillover into the consumer space as well. HP is still a recognized brand that is readily availble at many retail outlets. So all in all, if they come up with the right mix of hardware and services they could make some money. Execution would be key of course. But HP has to do something, take some risk, if they plan to remain a viable presence in the computing world.
Get me a tablet that I could do some work on! (not just watch movies and read my email)
Yes, I agree. Give us a tablet that we can actually do work on. I think perhaps that is the next evolution of the tablet after they satisfy the huge market demand for people that want to use the devices for play of video, game apps and reading email.
I was sorry HP cancelled their WebOS product. Disgraced former CEO Mark Hurd had announced plans to put WebOS on *everything* HP made, which would have been a potential disruptive game changer. Hurd's departure removed the driver behind it and HP has been floundering.
I can see why HP would be interested. Android has name recognition, and consumers will buy *because* something runs Android. HP's challenge is targeting the high end of the market. There are too many noname products from Chinese vendors you've never heard of flooding the lower end of the tablet marketplace. There's no way HP will be able to make money there, as they *can't* be the lowest cost producer.
The question is what HP *can* make that will let them charge a high enough price to actually make money.
I haven't seen a PC maker have any success in the tablet market yet. Apple doesn't count since their progression was from the iPhone. Same for Samsung.
Is EE Times going to cover the mysterious death of Dr. Shane Todd in Singapore last year ? He worked on GaN HEMTs at UCSB and went to IME Singapore on contract. IME led by a Chinese American asked him to trasfer GaN process technology from the US. IME was working with Huawei, China. After a while Shane resigned but was found dead in his apt. 2 days before returning to the US. His parents do not agree with the investigation carried out by Singapore police. The Govt. of Singapore won't let the local office of the FBI into the case. The US ambassador to Singapore is uncooperative.
Jim Christensen
What does a comment about a death in Singapore have to do with an article about whether HP is going to produce an Android tablet?
There might be really low margin from manufacturing any kind of tablet. Yet, to make money from tablet, you need a eco system. To build the eco system, the company needs a tablet. It sounds a bit like a chicken and egg problem. IMO, for HP to make any tablet is a good move. How they can make money is wait to be seen. I'm pretty sure with their channels to various big corporations. They will be able to make some sales. Whether the profit is high enough to justify the business development is whole another story. The announcement might already indicate a careful calculation from the executive office. ;)
Just to do something a bit different, they should use the new Ubuntu for Tablets.
They would have at least one point of difference from every other Android tablet on the market.

I love this cream, very affordable the glide is great! Use a little or lot when needed! Meets all needs when delivering multiple therapies!
I love working with this cream. It provides a smooth glide and has no overpowering fragrance. It's wonderful!
I like
Wonderful product with nice glide, absorbs well, no stains to sheets and reasonably priced.
I love Massage FX Cream! I love the thickness of this cream. Lotions are to watery and are not as smooth as cream. I do not have to keep applying to keep my glide going. I can control the amount I use so that I can do deep tissue massage which is very important! It does not have a scent that's what oils are for :) I totally love Massage FX Cream!!!
I love this cream. I have purchased about 5 gallons. It is hypoallergenic and works great for my Swedish and deep tissue Especially love the price!
We perform Swedish and deep tissue. This lotion cream was OK for the Swedish, it was a little too slippery even for the Swedish, but OK overall. Not a good idea for deep tissue.

Fiat expects full employment of its Italy work force in 3 to 4 years
MILAN (Reuters) -- Fiat will reach full employment of its work force at Italian plants in the next three to four years, CEO Sergio Marchionne said.
"With new investments in three-four years we will have full employment of our work force in Italy," he said during a business conference in Milan on Thursday.
On Tuesday, the company said it had asked the Italian government to approve a special layoff scheme at its plant in Melfi, southern Italy, so the company can restructure it before production of new Jeep and Fiat small SUVs start.
Government spending cuts and high unemployment have squeezed consumer budgets and sent demand for cars plunging across Europe where the industry already suffers from overcapacity.
Like many other carmakers, Fiat, which controls U.S. carmaker Chrysler Group, has been hard hit by Europe's debt crisis. Italy has suffered more than many countries as 2012 new car sales slumped to their lowest level since 1979.

Cooper set to quit Wallabies
20 Nov 2012
Quade Cooper could switch to rugby league or even take up boxing after being 'insulted' by the Australian Rugby Union's latest contract offer.
According to the Sydney Morning Herald, the ARU is effectively forcing Cooper out of the game by offering him an incentive-based contract that is usually reserved for rookies. If he was to accept this deal, he would be regarded as below the top 30 players in Australia.
Cooper was fined A$40,000 recently for criticising the Wallabies and coach Robbie Deans, but when fit, he remains an asset to Australian rugby. In 2011, he was the Super Rugby Player of the Year.
If he decides to walk out on the Wallabies, he could also break his three-year deal with the Queensland Reds.
Switching codes and competing in rugby league is now a realistic option, and there is even speculation that he could take up boxing, fighting on the undercard of Sonny Bill Williams's bout with Francois Botha next February.

20 Nov 2012, 07:35 amOne punch and he's out of boxing too.
Such a shame…. great talent. -
20 Nov 2012, 07:46 amThis guy is hilarious. Thinks he is the bees knees. He was lucky to get the offer he did.
20 Nov 2012, 09:01 amThis guy is a joke.
I would love to see him get his a$$ handed to him in the ring.
Now just wondering.
If does not accept the terms and conditions does that mean he is no longer bound to a club or union?
He will be a free agent of the sorts.
What would happen if the Kings threw some mad money at him? -
20 Nov 2012, 09:03 amGood riddance show pony!!!
20 Nov 2012, 09:08 amIsnt' he a New Zealander? Why not go home and play there…
20 Nov 2012, 09:12 amTo effectively run the " I want to be SBW fans Club" he can't be bound by a contract
20 Nov 2012, 09:29 am@Gumboots-5:
We have alot better #10s in our ITM cup, more consistent.
Anyway he made his bed….time to sleep in it. -
20 Nov 2012, 09:45 amThe guy is an idiot. A sometimes talented idiot, but still an idiot with a highly inflated opinion of himself. He is also not the guy that will lead the Wallabies to eventual success over the AB's. He has taken so many cheap shots at McCAw that the hard men in the AB team have a target permanently painted on him. He subsequently spends most of the AB games trying to keep his body intact rather than use his natural talents. Got the brain of a pea and the spine of a chicken. Only trouble is that he won't last 5 minutes in a boxing ring and no one in League gets to run away from tackling like Quade does in Union. They might take a punt on him, but he will never be a star and probably will fade into oblivion. A potentially good career in Union wasted because he is to brainless to see the truth and too full of himself to admit it even if he could see it.
20 Nov 2012, 12:12 pmOff to Rugby League?
Better learn to tackle first Quade.Ain't no place to hide in the NRL.
20 Nov 2012, 13:14 pm@cane-9: They'll belt him all day long in the NRL, If he thinks there were cheap shots in Rugby he hasn't seen anything
20 Nov 2012, 13:20 pm@Hurricane-7: He won't make it in NZ, Kiwi 10′s can actually tackle.
20 Nov 2012, 15:41 pmPersonally I'm a massive fan of Quade Cooper…. I know I'm in a minority, but if you ask me the guy has so much talent it's scary.
- Arrogant, yes
- Individualistic, yes
- Inconsistent, yesBut when he's on form, he is a joy to watch. Makes everyone else look like schoolboys.
I don't think he should be a flyhalf… Too much responsibility for a loose cannon like him. He should have been a 12. Leave the game-management to someone else and just let him play his natural game.
20 Nov 2012, 16:42 pmNot sure why everyone thinks he can't handle himself. I heard he put one of the big Ozzie forwards on their *** a while ago.
You also probably thought baby jake couldn't fight…
20 Nov 2012, 19:43 pmWhether people want to admit it or not, Quade Cooper is the most talented Young 10 on the planted.outside Carter no one is nearly as gifted as Cooper.None
And last year with Reds he put on a clinic throughout the season,top scorer,most assists,2nd most offloads,most kicking metres etc u name it
Was at 10 and Wallabies reclaimed the Tri Nations
At 10 Oz do not have any player anywhere near his league when he's on form.Even Beale or Oconnor at 10.
With him at 10 it hid a lot of Aussie deficiencies due to how freakishly talented he is.
He is a better player than Aaron Cruden,as good as he was this year Cruden he was nothing in comparison to Cooper masterclass last year.Slade,Barrett too aint as good as Cooper.He would make AB's.For Boks he would kill the SA 10′s
Saying he's rubbish is like saying Zlatan Ibrahimovic is **** or Kevin Pietersen is rubbish.That's false however u look at it.
20 Nov 2012, 20:05 pmThis article sums it up for me:
Breathtaking with his brilliance, but …
November 20, 2012 – 8:47PM
Peter FitzSimonsWhat then, when the days grow cold and we grow old, will we say of Quade Cooper? Quade Who?
Yes, sadly, you're right.
Whether Cooper will be remembered at all is a moot point. Personally, it would amaze me if his fragile brand of brilliance translates well to rugby league – can anyone see him stopping Paul Gallen on the boil? – and I am even more fearful for him in trying to pay the rent on his boxing skills. (Seriously, who came up with that idea?)
No, from this point, the most likely fate for Cooper is to send a sizzle reel of his "season-to-end-reason," 2010, to Japan or the like, pick up a lucrative contract there and relatively quickly fade from view.
Still, what a season that was! And what a strange lead-in …
He first came to the attention of the wider rugby community when he came off the bench for the Wallabies against Italy in 2008, and scored a breath-taking try with his first touch of the ball. We then had the bewildering episode a year later of him being charged by police with stealing two laptops, only for the charges to be withdrawn, after "completion of a justice mediation process with the complainants".
It was the first sign of a lack of character, and was not the stuff that Wallabies were made of, and yet in that subsequent 2010 season, Cooper was brilliant from first to last. Back in his day, David Campese could send a bolt of electricity through every chair in the stadium, every time he touched the ball, and for a short, glorious time, Cooper was like that. The following year he guided Queensland to its Super Rugby championship he could do things with the ball and pull off sidesteps which put him in space that we had not seen before – at least not coming from the one man.
But could he cope with the pressures that come from being for a brief time the most exciting player in world rugby? Decidedly, no.
From last year's World Cup on, his life has been a litany of injuries, terrible form and ever more bizarre and wounding public comments – with all the wounds showing up on his own career and reputation.
Look, none of us will ever know how devastating it would be to find yourself, in the land of your birth – New Zealand – being hooted and booed by 50,000 people as you took the field in a World Cup semi-final playing against the All Blacks, but from the moment he put his opening kick-off of that match out on the full, it was obvious that Cooper could not master the situation.
A devastating knee injury in his next game provided the full-stop to a very ordinary year, while this year was not much more than an ellipsis …
What little we have seen of Cooper on the field this year has shown a player no more than a shadow of what he was in 2010, and all of his headlines have come from the "toxic" tweets, and all the rest. It is all rather sad.
Sometime, somewhere, someone needed to sit him down and say, "Quade, you have more raw talent in your little finger than most players have in their whole bodies, but, in the end that is not enough. You have to get a grip, my man, settle down, train hard, work on developing your game and every time you feel like having a whinge, do a hundred sit-ups and a hundred push-ups until the urge passes." That appears not to have happened.
So what will we say? I think it will be something like this:
On his day, Quade Cooper was a breathtakingly brilliant player, a streak of light across the sky in an otherwise fairly dull rugby night. The pity is he could not have shone stronger for longer.
Good luck, Quade. -
20 Nov 2012, 20:08 pmShockingly though, Cooper won 86% of the 7 Tests he played against the Boks.
20 Nov 2012, 23:00 pm@mshiniwami-14: Agreed… Back in the day of amateur rugby, it was common place to see one guy running through a team or dazzling defences with sidestepping etc… But in the modern game, with defences as structured as they are and with the level as high as it is, it's very rare to find someone who makes everynoe else look average.
Quade Cooper, when in form, is that player.
Incredible talent. Sad to see him go.

text: Will there be any religious guidance during the pilgrimage? Yes, groups will be accompanied by guides (male & female) who have experience in performing hajj. Also, for specific religious guidance and lectures, we have arranged for an Imaam to accompany each group What type of Hajj will we be performing? Inshallah we will be performed according to the Sunnah of the Prophet Mohammed (SAW). There will be the chance to select between Hajj Tamattu and Hajj Qiraan. What is the difference between Hajj Tamattu and Hajj Qiraan? Tamattu - A pilgrim enters the state of Ihraam with theintention of performing Umrah only. After the completion of Umrah, this Ihraam is removed and another state of Ihraam is adopted before 8th Dhul Hijjah with the intention of performing Hajj. Qiraan - A pilgrim enters the state of Ihraam with the intention of performing Umrah & Hajj. On reaching Makkah, a pilgrim first performs Umrah and then performs Hajj in a single state of Ihraam What happens about arranging a Qurbani (Sacrifice)? This is all part of the package. A Qurbani will be carried out on your behalf. What happens to our suitcases during Hajj days? Luggage is stored safely at your hotel in Makkah Will I have to pay for food / meals? Whilst in the hotels, your are covered half board within the package. In Muna & Arafat the accommodation is full board. Any additional meals over and above this you will have to pay for. What kind of clothing is recommended? Obviously, during Hajj days you will need an Ihraam. The weather is generally very warm all of the time but during the winter months it can get a little chilly at night. It is recommended to pack at least one item of warm clothing such as a jumper. The rest of the time you will need cool, comfortable clothing that is easy to move in. How do I arrange for the cleaning of my laundry? This can be done through services provided by the hotel, although there are other laundrettes around the local areas who also offer this service, often at a cheaper rate. How much money should I take with me? Please allow for any food / laundry bills and shopping/souveniers that you will buy during your stay. It is recommened to take at least a couple of hundred punds or so, but this obviously varies from person to person. We do not recommend that you take travellers cheques as you will not have your passport with you at times when you may need to cash them. What is the exchange rate? Obviously this may change, but as a rough guide it is about 6 Riyals to 1 British Pound. It is reletively easy to exhange money at one of the many points situated around the local areas. Whats the cost of an average meal? Approx £3 or 20 Riyals What if I want to take Zam-Zam back to the UK with me? This is normal practice and can be arranged. What if I get Ill during my stay? A certain amount of medical care is available, however we advise that you take out travel insurance.

Council member Louis Hamm, during the council's Feb. 11 meeting, proposed an even, across-the-board raise — 75-cent per hour for all city employees.
City manager Ron Goulart had been asked, during council budget talks last year, to prepare a salary increase plan and have it ready by July, mayor Lynn Long said.
"We have not seen a pay plan," Hamm said, "and that is why I am coming here tonight with this amount."
Hamm's proposal hit a snag when council member Earl Gray questioned whether it exceeds the proposed 3-percent raise — and the funds set aside for that raise — in the city's 2012-13 budget.
"That (Hamm's proposal) would be an amount substantially over what we have in the budget," said city manager Ron Goulart, whose plan was to give a 3-percent raise across the board.
Goulart said a 3-percent raise equals $101,978. Hamm's proposals, he said, is estimated to be $169,000, which does not include taxes, insurance and retirement. With those items factored in, Hamm's plan comes to about $200,000, according to Goulart.
Timing has become another factor in giving pay hikes. The council had previously agreed to wait until March to give raises because of two uncertainties: the citizens' vote on SPLOST (special-purpose local-option sales tax) and the on-going negotiations over LOST (local-option sales tax). Depending on voter approval of SPLOST and how talks go on LOST, these two items could have a significant impact on the budget. Gray suggested that the plan for salary hikes be tabled and brought back in March, when the council would be aware of any impacts to the budget from SPLOST and LOST.
"When you are dealing with public money, it is best to check twice and cut once," Goulart said.
When the topic of salary increase was placed on the council's agenda this month, Goulart requested information from Hamm in order to be prepared at the meeting. Hamm allegedly refused to provide any figures to Goulart prior to the council meeting. "I was denied the opportunity to see how the projected raises would affect the budget," Goulart said.
All council members agreed that salary raises for city employees is a priority, but the budget appeared to be a point of controversy.
"I am not objecting to giving raises. I am objecting that this (Hamm's proposal) just came up," Gray said. "If we are not careful, we are going to end up just like our president by spending money we can't afford."
The council agreed to table the item and give the city manager and finance director a chance to calculate any changes in the budget. Employee raises will be placed on the agenda for the next council meeting, Feb. 25, at 6:30 p.m.

Nursing in Public
One thing that annoys the living piss out of me is all the sexism against women. There are so many aspects that are institutionalized in our society that even women fall into this trap. Women raving about equal rights in one breath will decry a woman who nurses in public in the next. No matter what American women do we cannot escape the fact that society continues to see us as only sexual objects for only the enjoyment of men. Now, if you (any one of you) wants to only be a sex object, by all means go out and enjoy yourself, but do not subject our entire sex to the shelf of sex toys.Society is really okay with seeing this in public:
Actually, I don't care! I don't care at all, but if this is okay then certainly this should be okay too:
I mean if I have to see this in public, then the rest of society should just quit it about nursing in public!
The bottom line is that feminism is not about women becoming men. It's as much about society accepting the differences between the sexes and seeing those differences as being equal (working dad vs. stay-at-home mom) and acknowledging that continuing to make female boobs taboo at all, is still a great defect in America's fight for sexual equality. Now, I'm not one to say let's make all boobs in public wrong, but more so if man boobs are okay, then so too are girl boobs. And if man boobs are not sexual at all, then certainly we should allow that a woman's boobs are not always sexual and they can and do have a logical, God-given function to feed babies. (I believe in God and don't apologize for it, you may substitute mother nature or nature or the powers that be or whatever for God as you read this.) It's about accepting women as people, not about allowing sex objects a voice.

The smile has not left her face since she put the ring on her finger!
The ring was very nice and was exactly what I thought it would be. I like a thin band because it makes the diamond really stand out and the focal point of the engagement ring. If you get a really nice and good quality diamond then a thin band is the way to go. If you cant afford a really nice diamond you may want to go with a thicker band.
Elegant ring with a simple design. Fiance gets lots of compliments on it.
Great diamond and fantastic customer service. Had to get ring a day before it was supposed to arrive and after a phone call to the customer service line they made it happen.Thanks so much.
It's always nerve racking when you place this type of an order online. Especially from a place you've never shopped at before. I talked to a few different people who were familiar with Blue Nile which helped ease my concerns. After initially making a mistake with the delivery date in my order, I called in the following day and was helped out by a number of individuals who not only helped me pick a similar diamond but got my delivery date adjusted. They went above and beyond to make sure I got my order right and on schedule. Many thanks to making my day a little less nerve racking. She said, yes!
As described. Really makes the center diamond stand out due to the thin band.

Locals say that the South ends fifty miles north of New Orleans. In many ways, this is true. This city is home to a diverse music culture, world-renowned cuisine, voodoo, and Mardi Gras , one of the world's largest parties. New Orleans is a relatively small city which had little concern for what went on outside of it until Hurricane Katrina devastated the city 2005. Parts of New Orleans are still recovering from this disaster but the city's vibrant culture is back in full swing.
French Quarter
The French Quarter, or Vieux Carre in French, is the oldest neighborhood in New Orleans. It lies in the crescent of the Mississippi River and consists of fairly narrow streets, reminiscent of European city planning, that reveal hidden courtyards and look up to wrought iron balconies. The architecture in the Quarter typically dates to the late 18th- and early 19th-centuries, and draws on French and Spanish influences. In the daytime, the French Quarter, especially the area around Jackson Square, is filled with tourists, street performers, and the occasional conman. At night, the French Quarter transforms into the stereotypical party scene. Barhopping college students, adventurous suburbanites, tourists, and others all populate the area until the wee hours.
Lower Canal Street
Once the main shopping district of New Orleans lined with popular department stores and theaters, Canal Street lost much of its grandeur to a sluggish economy in the 70s and 80s. Today, Harrah's New Orleans and an expanded convention center have helped this part of Canal Street to develop into a ten block strip of hotels, T-shirt shops and electronics stores. The Riverwalk Market Place , which is near the Aquarium of the Americas and the Ernest M. Morial Convention Center , also makes this a popular stop for tourists.
Central Business District
The scattered, mismatched skyscrapers and superbly odd-shaped Superdome of the Central Business District form the recognizable skyline of New Orleans. Several modern hotels, as well as older and established hotels are in the heart of the CBD and the New Orleans' business community. Bustling during the day with local businesspeople, this area lulls at night. Since the district is relatively empty at night, many of the guests from the hotels in the neighborhood head for the Quarter.
Garden District
This is the premier New Orleans residential neighborhood, boasting the tremendous oak tree lined Saint Charles Avenue as its most-famed street, and home after home epitomizing the antebellum's Greek Revival architecture. Only a walking tour will do this dazzling district the justice it deserves. If you visit the city, you must see the lush, overgrown gardens and grand mansions that line these streets. The Garden District has many well-known residents, including Trent Reznor, Archie Manning, and Anne Rice, the famous author of many vampire novels.
Mid-City usually goes unnoticed by the average tourist until Jazz Fest , when thousands of eager visitors, bedecked in shorts and tank tops, crowd onto the Esplanade bus to reach the New Orleans Fairgrounds . Quiet and verdant with trees, Mid-City attracts locals to its wide offering of moderately priced restaurants, New Orleans City Park , and the New Orleans Museum of Art . For tourists, Mid-City is home to impressive aboveground cemeteries, including Metairie Cemetery, Oddfellow's Rest, and St. Louis Cemetery #3.
Oak lined streets, Victorian mansions, and college cafes are staples of New Orleans' thriving Uptown neighborhood. St. Charles Avenue and Pyrtania Street offer examples of Colonial Revival architecture. The neighborhood is also home to Tulane and Loyola Universities. In addition to the mansions and universities, many pleasant coffee shops, antique stores, and restaurants crowd the small spaces between the fantastic homes of New Orleans' upper class. Residents and visitors alike jog the two miles through Uptown's gorgeous, Spanish moss-filled Audubon Park each morning.
Warehouse District
Having outgrown the once-appropriate title, this historic New Orleans' neighborhood is no longer frequented by blue-collar factory workers. Instead, it is now a vibrant arts district populated by the city's young professionals. Some of the best art galleries in the city sit beside restaurants that offer excellent cuisine. In addition, locals and tourists crowd into the streets of the district during festivals such as Art for Art's Sake, when plenty of wine, cheese, gumbo, and art clutter the sidewalks and the shops.
The people of New Orleans are passionate about eating. Any visitor to the city should experience the regional flavor, but there are important differences between the countrified Cajun, refined Creole, and classic Southern styles of cooking that make up New Orleans cuisine.
Downtown/French Quarter
Tourists are always at risk of getting an expensive, average-tasting meal in the Quarter. The tourist industry spawned many mediocre restaurants that prioritize location over taste. On the plus side, a truly bad meal is difficult to find anywhere in New Orleans. Avoid the handful of chain restaurants in favor of the little holes in the wall.
To start your morning off, how about an order of pipping hot beignets loaded with powdered sugar from Cafe Du Monde , a New Orleans institution.
Quality service usually comes at a high price in the Quarter, but you are also paying for a slice of history - a seat in some of the oldest fine dining establishments in the country. In any of the classic Creole-French restaurants, like Arnaud's and Brennan's , you will have a satisfying experience laden with such traditional delicacies as Oysters Rockefeller, Trout Meuniere, Turtle Soup, and Banana's Foster. For the full-on Southern buffet, check out Court of the Two Sisters . Locals like to put this granddaddy of buffets down, but it has its merits, including solid bread pudding, Dixieland jazz, and a beautiful view of the Quarter.
For those in search of something more nouveau and intimate, the Quarter also offers the acclaimed Bayona (a four-star bargain), the gorgeous Gamay, the Italian-Creole Bacco , and the romantic Bella Luna, which overlooks the Mississippi River. MiLa offers authentic Southern flavors and recipes.
There are many places to have a casual lunch. Briny oyster shooters can be had at ACME Oyster House , or a mixed-meat Muffeletta sandwich from the Central Grocery always hits the spot. After lunch, or even better for breakfast, move on to the sticky French pastry at La Marquise.
A scattering of miscellaneous downtown restaurants represent just about everything that New Orleans has to offer. The downtown area has everything from old-school grease joints to cutting-edge bistros. For old-time favorites that never cease to please, New Orleanians go to the no-nonsense Mandina's or the BBQ shrimp palace, Pascal's Manale .
Many people flock to New Orleans for the simple truth that alcohol is everywhere: in the bars, on the sidewalks, in the streets. From the impressive wine lists a restaurants to the many to-go Daiquiri shops on festive Bourbon Street, folks in New Orleans like to drink and they don't like to wait until the weekend to partake of the spirits. Whether it's to kick off your evening or to wrap it up, no trip to the French Quater is complete without a Pat O'Brien's cocktail. Try the house special, the "hurricane."
Central Business District
For a sampling of a New Orleans staple, stop by Mother's for a good ol' fashioned po' boy sandwich. If all the Southern cooking has you hurting, the Apple Seed Shoppe , is an excellent, tasty and healthy lunch spot to keep your day going. When the time comes to quench your thirst, Gordon Biersch Brewery Restaurant serves up quality beers with quality food.
Garden District
The Garden District is full of all kinds of good eats. For classic cuisine and service, Emeril Lagasse's Delmonico Restaurant & Bar is a Big Easy favorite. Cafe Atchafalaya is another classic Creole eatery where you can sample goods from the Bayou. And if you're serious about your oysters, Casamento's is the place for you, but be aware as they close when oysters aren't in season.
Sundays can be difficult for dining as many of New Orleans' better restaurants close for the day. Fortunately, glorious options still exist, most especially the Brennan family's famous Commander's Palace , the former stomping-ground of celebrity chefs Emeril Lagasse and Paul Prudhomme.
If you're hankering for a taste of the far east down south, Five Happiness Restaurant can satisty, while The Delachaise serves up a variety of tapas and wines.
The heart and soul of the city's drinking culture lies in its low-key bars. Laid-back hang-outs with names like Le Bon Temps Roule attract an interesting mix of students, celebrities, faded intellectuals, and serious barflies. In short, these are marvelous places to blend in and be entertained.
Warehouse District/Arts District
For an evening of sophistication, try the eponymous Emeril's New Orleans or 7 On Fulton for a fancy, filling meal.
No visit to the south would be complete without some down-home barbeque, so head to Ugly Dog Saloon and Bar-B-Que for brisket or ribs and a game of pool. Cochon serves up spicy Cajun cuisine and the requisite glass of Bourbon.
The Warehouse District offers up quite a bit in the way of ethnic foods as well, such as the Asian-Fusion restaurant Hipstix , or Rock-n-Sake for sushi and sake bombs.
New Orleans is not a big city, but it does have an extensive and dynamic history that can overwhelm the first time tourist, but there are many venues for visitors to successfully experience one of the most captivating places in the world.
Cabildo Near Jackson Square Park, you can tour the Cabildo , where the official transfer of the Louisiana Purchase took place, and St. Louis Cathedral , the oldest cathedral in the United States. Dine at Antoine's . To get a feel for 18th Century living, tour the Old Ursulines Convent and Madame John's Legacy , the city's oldest buildings.
Musee Conti Wax Museum Visit the Musee Conti Wax Museum , then the Historic Voodoo Museum , and the Germaine Wells Mardi Gras Museum above Arnaud's Restaurant on Bienville. Mardi-Gras paraphernalia and memorabilia are also on display, along with an impressive jazz exhibition, at the Old U. S. Mint .
Magazine Street Walk down Magazine Street and browse the many shops. Then walk over to Julia Street, an area recently dubbed the Arts District in honor of the Contemporary Art Center , which honors local artists with exhibitions and performances. Dine at Casamento's . Two major museums in this area are the National D-Day Museum and the Confederate Museum . After browsing the eclectic shops and galleries along Magazine Street, walk a few blocks over to St. Charles Avenue and catch a ride on the famous New Orleans Streetcar . Sit back and enjoy the voyage along the most scenic avenue in the city in one of these ancient streetcars which are an integral part of the city's history.
Garden District This is a gorgeous area of the city, lush with crepe myrtles, magnolia trees, and jasmine bushes. It is truly a stroller's paradise. There are also many small galleries in this area. Visit the Davis Gallery , the Cole Pratt Gallery and the Mario Villa Gallery . Dine at the Upperline Restaurant . Also be sure to check out the displays at The George & Leah McKenna Museum of African American Art .
New Orleans City Park Louis Armstrong Park is a nice place to spend a few hours. The St. Louis Cemetery Number Two is on Esplanade Avenue, just before New Orleans City Park . Grab a bite at Venezia . The Park is home to the New Orleans Museum of Art and the Botanical Gardens .
New Orleans has a long list of commercial tour packages that cover every conceivable angle of the city's historical highlights.
