A lil combo on static (although u can do this on spinny). Easier then it looks so if u can do a twisted grip aysha or handspring this is doable.
Top and shorts from dirdybirdy.com #Dirdybirdy
Song is STAY HIGH by Tove Lo (habits remix). So help me god if anyone asks me what the song is!! Haha
A static pole combo u guys can try.
Side climb>fan kick>ballerina>invert>split thingy
Outfit from www.dirdybirdy.com
A bit of static pole prac this morning. I'm obsessed with static! But first let me take a selfie :D
POP SHORTS and TOP in purple. Made from soft supplex Lycra.
Cheeky and comfy 😊 get them online at www.dirdybirdy.com
Worldwide shipping
I managed to get the combo but still needs a lot of smoothing out. It looks like such an easy transition from the Tg aysha to the drop swingy move but I found it very scary! Try this combo only if you are comfortable in your Tg aysha. Note I twist my chest away from the pole so my shoulder comes to the front of the pole and I bring my hips right into the pole as I swing my legs down. Also use the momentum of the drop to invert on other side.
Pop Too and shorts from www.dirdybirdy.com (im wearing Medium too and bottoms) #dirdybirdy
Oops had to repost. This is tower bridge not London bridge #towerbridge #streetpole #dirdybirdy
Site seeing at London bridge and Tower of London today. Saw the Crown Jewels damn them gems are huge!! #dirdybirdy #londonbridge #streetpole
One last shit in the toilets before heading off to the cattery haha they'll be using kitty litter for the next 6 weeks.
FYI: I use LITTER KWITTER to train my cats to go in the toilet. The green ring u see is the last stage of the system. You're supposed to take the ring off but I kept it on so there's more surface for the cats to sit on. Also thy have this toilet to themselves. I have a separate toilet but it's quiet clean if u clean up after them #billybutterball
#howNOTtoHOLDaCAT @jemcoco #billybutterball 😭😭
Where are all your climbing videos?? Well here's an addition to this weeks climbing challenge. An easy move for advance beginners and intermediate polers. From a climb (make sure pole is in between the knees), just release your ankles and straighten legs as u grip pole with your elbow. Squeeze your knees and and don't let go! You can bend one leg (same side as elbow that's on the pole), switch elbows as your bend the other leg and repeat as many times as u like ☺
Simple but pretty move u can add to your reputoire :) remember this weeks challenge is climbing and also this spin if you want. Post and tag #dirdybirdychallenge
#dirdybirdy i want to see your videos!! Please and spanks you!
Goodnight peeps #onlyminty #hisface I die #dirdybirdy
A short pole prac this morning.
Mix and match POP too and shorts
#adele #iwantaboy #polecombo #poletricks #dirdybirdy #dirdybirdy2
Starting today off with a #sundaybumday pic 😛
A reminder if u are ordering from my website please use size guide provided. Don't assume you are a certain size. Across different brands I'm xs, small and medium cause there's no universal size system. #dirdybirdy2 #dirdybirdy #plantbuildbooty 😉
No bloating tonight so I'm on the pole weeeee!! Hehe
Wearing new POP top and CHEEKY 2 shorts. Worldwide shipping!! www.dirdybirdy.com
For those working on Cupid this is great prep exercise for the core and hamstrings. Start with foot away from the pole and gradually bring the foot right into the pole. The closer the foot to the pole, the more you have to rely on core andhamstring strength.
In a Cupid:
- the hooked knee should be same height or only slightly higher than your hips
- hips should be pushed forward. That is your butt should not be sitting back. This will test your hamstring strength. SQUEEZE the pole using your hamstring (pull the top foot into your butt)
- what keeps you up is the pulling and pushing forces between the top knee and the bottom foot on the pole. You are pulling away from the pole with your top knee and you are pushing into the pole with the bottom foot.
Here's a the spinning Cupid combo I did a few years back. You need to be able to do Cupid on both sides. I basically go into twisted grip with my outside hand which then becomes my inside hand when I switch sides. I find this easier in a spinning like

Comments about Maurices 2 pocket sleeveless plaid shirt:
Saw this shirt online and fell in love with the colors so I ordered it in my normal size Small. When it arrived and I took it out of the package I was surprised to see how large the shirt was. Either this shirt was mismarked or the sizes run large, which i think is the case. It was huge, did not flatter my curves like the picture online shows it does and I assumed it would, and the material was thinner than I would have liked. When I brought it to my local Maurices to return it i showed the employees there how large it was for a small and they agreed it did look huge. Needless to say I returned it. You may want to order at least one size smaller than normal and it might just flatter your curves.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

About 2 or 3 years ago an old man came into our store. He didn't like the way my boss looked or sounded so he started asking him if he was gay in a very disrespectful way. My boss got upset and kicked the guy out. Yesterday the guy came back into work asking to speak to my boss. My boss didn't remember him so he treated this guy like any other customer. The old man pulled his penis out and asked my boss to put it in his mouth. My boss punched the man in the face and the rest of the afternoon was spent talking to the cops.
Who's to say it's not true.
A very not-clean guy came into work before closing yesterday. He seemed very bothered by something and had difficulty articulating his thoughts. After around 10 minutes of frustratingly trying to explain something he finally gives up. He just looks at me with the most serious look on his face and says, "I'm learning things that will blow your fucking mind man. Things that would make you question if your Mother is really your Mom and if the sea is really blue. You just gotta understand where I'm coming from." He then left me a business card which didn't belong to him and was from another business in the same strip mall and walked out the door mumbling to himself.
Classy Homeless
I took that trash out back and there was a homeless guy washing himself with our garden hose. I just ignored him because he really wasn't causing a problem. On the way back in the guy whistled at me. I looked and he had the garden hose between his legs pretending to jack off with it. He then said, "I steal your water, what are you going to do about that? Yeah you better walk back inside because this is my water now." A few minutes later he walked into the shop and acted like he had never seen me before. He asked if we had any used laptops for sale.
Standard conversations with the average person.
Just now the mail man came in and handed me our mail. He looked at a small form factor usb wifi adapter hanging in the package next to the service department window. The wifi adapter looks like this.
In a very angry tone he asks if it was a bluetooth adapter. I told him it was a wifi adapter not a bluetooth adapter. He gets upset and says, "What the fuck? I don't get why this isn't bluetooth." After telling him that I can get a bluetooth adapter that looks just like that I asked him, "What are you trying to accomplish? Why do you want a bluetooth adapter?" He said, "I don't know, I don't even know what bluetooth is. Fuck this place." The threw the wifi adapter on the floor and walked out.
Who raised this woman?
My morning started out by me coming in from the back. My boss asked me to help this woman. She looked very ill and angry. My boss nudges me and says "Don't worry she won't bite." Sure enough when I asked her if there was anything we could help her with she turned around and bit me.
School System Failure
I just gave a woman her change and realized we were out of five dollar bills. No problem I though, I gave her five, one dollar bills instead. Little did I know this would cause a problem. I had to spend 30 minutes explaining to this woman that five, one dollar bills is worth the same amount as a five dollar bill and she could not get a five dollar bill because we are out at the moment.
She explained she will never come back and is dissatisfied with out money.
Get it together buddy.
I was having a conversation with a customer the other day. During our conversation he asked, "If I don't understand something does that mean I won't be able to fix it?"
Later on he sneezed, and similar to a 4 year old he had a huge string of snot from his hand to his nose. He just wiped it on his shirt and carried on like there wasn't a huge glob of snot smeared on his shirt.
He ended his conversation with me by asking where a place to receive mail was. Not email, a place where you get "paper letters" and boxes.
I haven't abandoned this site!
What I've been working on is turning these stories into a book. I feel like it could do well as a book. I may be wrong and it may or may not materialize but it's something I decided I wanted to do. I'm currently going back over all these stories and doing grammar corrections and fixing other mistakes. I kind of flew threw a lot of these when I wrote them. I also should have paid attention to my English teachers over the years instead of napping in class.
The book will have more of my experiences in computer repair that won't be on the site. Hopefully in a month or two I will be ready to look for a publisher or whatever you have to do to get a book publish. It should be an interesting experience.
I have more experiences to add to this site as well so no need to worry. New weird stuff is happening everyday.
Thanks for reading.
Wrong Usage
A woman just left here upset because we wouldn't take back a used can of compressed air. She complained that it burned her nose and throat when she tried to clean her teeth with it. She then wanted to know if we could come out to her house and install a camera in her 15 year old stereo that doesn't work anymore. After rambling on about how she'd pay us to rake her yard she asked again if we'd take back the canned air that she used half of in an attempt to clean her teeth.
Sorry, I'm none of those people.
After spending most of an hour just looking at the different cables we have hanging on a very small rack. The guy turns to me and says, "Timothy, is your name Alex?"

Texas Motor Speedway's General Manager Eddie Gossage says NASCAR is backing down from its statement that it might re-evaluate the standards for sponsorship.
"It's partly a CYA and partly a statement they are very regrettable today that they made yesterday," Gossage said.
Gossage says he was told by senior NASCAR officials they stand by their choice to make the National Rifle Association the title sponsor of Saturday's race. Earlier Friday, NASCAR said it might take a look at how it approves sponsors after receiving backlash for the NRA 500.
Gossage maintains the backlash wasn't serious and didn't reflect NASCAR fans' views. He blamed the media for creating the "controversy."
"Nationwide there have been fewer than a dozen cards and letters sent. That's not the people that's the media that's trying to fan the flames to make a big deal about it," Gossage said. "It's not a big deal."

- Familiarity: I've used it several times
This padded snowboard bag features lots of storage compartments, durable wheels and padding to keep your board protected from the dude that hates his job at the airlines. You know what I'm talking about- my bag ends up looking like a bus ran over it after a couple of trips. BUT this bag has been able to handle the wear and tear that TSA does to it. The wheels have been super durable and there are side compartments for my smelly clothes to keep away from my clean board. So far so good. Keep making quality bags Burton.

Unfortunately we do not have any more of the Burton Wheelie Board Case black 166cm in stock at the moment and no orders placed with Burton. Please check back with us around the middle of January if you haven't found an alternate source by then.

I'm looking for the true black in 166 as well, is there any chance you will place another order? Thanks

Mike - any update on availability? I don't care if it's black, I just need this in 166.

Hi! What is the weight of the 166 cm version? Thanks!

Most websites have it listed between 10 and 10.5 pounds.

Hi ,
Can you fit two boards and bindings in??
Member since
In response to email@example.com - Yes you can, with the stipulation that you're probably going to end up taking the bindings off of one board and laying that under the board with bindings already on it.
This bag is mostly geared towards people who take their main board and backup boards along with their gear set in the same bag.
If you're looking for a bag that can usually accomodate 2 boards with attached bindings, check out the Burton Wheelie Locker bag.

UPDATE 12/24: Thanks so much to all of you who've played Santa Fu already and to the sites that have been reviewing it around the web! We hope this brought back some great memories for those of you who played the original Kung Fu on the Nintendo Entertainment System! Have a great holiday everybody!
Santa Claus is drunk off his jolly ass on egg nog... again. This always happens around this time of the year. It's now up to you to guide Santa through his headquarters at the North Pole to show everybody in that winter wonderland that he's the true king of Christmas. And just how can you accomplish this? By using the ancient art of SANTA FU on anybody who dares to get in your way! Oh yeah, Mrs. Claus also appears to have gone missing, so maybe you can rescue her too while you're at it. Ho, ho, ho!
Santa Fu is a huge Christmas parody based on the classic "Kung Fu" game on the NES! All the levels, enemies and bosses from the original have been completely reworked and customized to fit with the overall holiday theme. On top of that, we added in some new music, cutscenes, unlockable characters, a high scores list and more!
Hope you all enjoy this special Christmas present! To us, it's definitely a Christmas miracle.

I love Retro
You are awesome. I do wonder how many people could identify the music at the end? Yeah, I grew up with nintendo, as I'm sure most of the folks who appreciate this have. Even so, I wonder. I know that tune, I used to love that game. Goonies 2.

Beating Jesus is surpisingly simple
I just stood their mashing the kick button until he walked over to me. Sometimes you'll need to walk just a little bit forward. and continue with the endless kicking. Though don;t move too close or else he'll rip you apart. Also you most likely won;t need to move forward too many times... at most maybe 3.

Have you heard about these Smash books? I saw them earlier this year in an Archivers store in the twin cities, but they didn't have a lot of accessories out yet. I'm kind of lusting after them now.
Hmmm. Yeah, I kind of want this. And it's like scrapbooking, but without all the dumb sentiment and cheese (Matt and I still laugh about all the tags and stickers for scrapbooking that say "ALL BOY" and "RoUgH aNd TuMbLe!".  Seriously? I don't think there is anything *less* "all boy" than scrapbooking about it. Just sayin'.)
I discovered the Coffee Girl Crafts blog via Pinterest, and her Smash books really solidified me on wanting one.

Often centuries-old buildings and groups of buildings lie out of sight behind modern development. Sometimes new growth tends to overshadow the older areas of the city. But these areas and the communities that live in them represent the city's history, tradition, heritage, culture, architecture and craftsmanship.
The Heritage walks take place every weekend and are conducted by experienced and knowledgeable walk-leaders.

Peter Mannino first picked up a hockey stick around the age of four, but it wasn't until a couple years later that he became a netminder. He was intrigued by all of the gear that the goalies wore versus that of the other players. "They really stood out from the rest of the team. I started watching goalies like Felix Potvin; his mask and pads were so cool. I wanted to look like that."
The opportunities began when Mannino received a call from the Pittsburgh Forge, a now defunct North American Hockey League team. It was with the Forge that Mannino's skills were spotted by the University of Denver, where he soon went to play.
His big break came during 2004, the year of the infamous hockey blackout. In America, hardcore hockey fans' primary entertainment came from college games. Peter was having a great freshman year, and it ended in the best possible way: the University of Denver won the "Frozen Four," and Mannino was named the MOP (Most Outstanding Player).
In 2008 Peter Mannino graduated from the University of Denver with a bachelor's degree in business management and a Frozen Four title under his belt, all while his agent was receiving calls from NHL teams. Mannino signed a one-year contract with the New York Islanders. "It was an awesome feeling; I finally signed an NHL contract which has been a lifelong dream."
The 2008-09 season for the Islanders proved to be an ideal starting place for Mannino. While he didn't immediately make the Islanders roster, he was sent to their AHL affiliate, the Bridgeport Sound Tigers. While proving himself as a strong performer, Mannino started most games in Bridgeport. Early on, the Islanders' star goalie Rick DiPietro suffered from knee and other lower body injuries, causing his absence for the majority of the season. His chance grew close, and Mannino continued his work with the Sound Tigers.
But one day after practice he finally received a call from the Islanders: "Mannino, we need you here."
"I was going to dress for an NHL game; this is something I've always dreamed about as a kid, I never knew it was going to happen." Mannino was ecstatic.
He sat on the bench as back-up for most of the initial games. "Family members would always call up and ask 'they put you in yet?' I was anxious to play a game in the NHL, but I had to be patient." Finally his opportunity came, but it didn't pan out like he hoped.
Friday, November 28th, 2008 marked the date of Mannino's first NHL game. It was the Islanders vs. the Bruins; David vs. Goliath. The Islanders' primary backup, Joey MacDonald let in five goals. Early in the third period, Mannino was put in goal on relief and let in three goals during the 17:48 played. "It was my first NHL venture, but it wasn't glamorous."
Mannino had a tough loss, and was immediately sent back down to Bridgeport. Although he was back where he started, it didn't change his attitude. It wasn't long before Peter received another call. He had found out that MacDonald was put on the IRL (injured reserve list), and he was needed back in New York.
While Mannino expected to play backup, the coaches had a different plan. On March 15, 2009 he started his first NHL game against the now Stanley Cup champs, the Chicago Blackhawks.
"It was an exciting place to start," said Mannino. "My girlfriend lived in Chicago, and my family lives only a couple hours away, so a lot of people were there to support me."
All of the support seemed to work as Peter had a 5-2 win, and stopped 40 goals. It was his first NHL career start and win.
Mannino wasn't signed by the Islanders for the following season, but he signed a one-year contract with the Atlanta Thrashers for the 2009-10 season. He was assigned to their AHL affiliate, the Chicago Wolves. And although he didn't play any games with the Thrashers, he was called up for three days to practice with the team. In Chicago, he finished the season winning 25 of the 31 games he played. The team ended their season losing in the second round of the playoffs.
"It was a really fun place to be, and a great organization to be a part of," said Mannino.
The Wolves liked Mannino, and re-signed him to a two-year contract that runs through the 2011-12 season, leaving him still waiting for his opportunity to shine in the NHL. "This sort of thing doesn't just come to you. You have to show up."
Earlier this season, the sudden collapse of Ondrej Pavelec, Atlanta's primary goaltender, had the Thrashers in need of another goalie. Mannino was their choice. He was only up for a handful of games, but was put in relief during a game against the Tampa Bay Lightning in which he stopped 15 of 16 shots.
Mannino's future is a bright one, and one that many follow. His drive to become the best is in full motion, and with some hard work, he hopes to be back up in no time.

Honing their indie film chops, Adam Sandler and Jennifer Garner star in the forthcoming arthouse flick "Men, Women & Children."
And in the newly-released teaser trailer, the "50 First Dates" star goes trolling on the internet for escorts while Mrs. Ben Affleck reaches out for some male companionship.
They've been busy with media duties all week and last night (May 21) Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore teamed up for the Hollywood premiere of their new film "Blended."

Showing some love to their German fans, Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore showed up at the Berlin debut of their new flick "Blended" on Monday night (May 19).
The "Billy Madison" star was in good spirits as he welcomed his "50 First Dates" costar to the arrivals area outside CineStar Theater while fans and shutterbugs looked on.

Stopping by "Ellen" with her "Blended" co-star Adam Sandler, Drew Barrymore couldn't help but gush about her new baby girl, Frankie.
Frankie was born on April 22, and is the second child for the actress and her husband Will Kopelman.

Showing the world that they still have the finest romantic comedy chops, Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore star in a brand new trailer for "Blended."
Featuring the duo as single parents with their hands tied, the trailer shows how Barrymore and Sandler are brought together during an African vacation, and how their families impact one another.
They have a long history of costarring in rom-coms, and last night (February 26) Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler teamed up for a romantic duet on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon."

While most of the awards shows this time of year honor the best and brightest stars in the entertainment industry, the Raspberry Awards does just the opposite.
At the top of the Razzies nominees list is "Grown Ups 2" thanks to a whopping eight nods including Worst Picture, Worst Sequel, Worst Ensemble, Worst Screenplay, Worst Supporting Actor ( Taylor Lautner) and Worst Lead Actor ( Adam Sandler).
It's the biggest night in Hollywood where fans get the chance to rule the entire show, and plenty of your favorite celebs went home with brand new hardware at the 2014 People's Choice Awards on Wednesday (January 8).

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I was torn trying to decide between all the different designs. I finally settled on this one in the darker tones for a fall wedding. They are absolutely stunning and I would highly recommend getting the pearlized feature. It gives it that extra bit of "fancy" for being a more informal invitation. The designer even helped me add my parent's names to this invitation when I thought there wouldn't be any room."
"The paper quality is very good and the printing is excellent. Shipping is very fast even in Italy and the staff of Wedding Paper Divas is really nice and helpful. I would recommend anyone to purchase on this website! My vote is EXCELLENT, I love Wedding Paper Divas."
"I reviewed my invitations but didn't look at all of them. The first 20 were perfect but the last 30 were for someone else's wedding. The company was very quick to fix the problem and the reorder was perfect."
"We did these in orange and the color was beautiful. We also changed the back design to be a sillouette engagement picture. Printing was great and delivered promptly. I had to reorder since we needed more invites than originally planned. Those were easy to reorder and came quicker than expected!"
"I ordered these for my wedding invites with the pearly finish and they were breathtaking! I worked with a designer to add our middle names and make our names bigger and the designers were so helpful and fast! Highly recommend!!"

The Bridgeport Sound Tigers have announced that defenseman Sean Escobedo has been recalled from the Stockton Thunder (ECHL). Additionally, Florida Everblades (ECHL) defenseman Mike Cornell has signed a professional tryout contract (PTO).
Escobedo, 23, was a four-year player at Boston University. He had 33 points in his four years with the Terriers before signing a two-way (AHL/ECHL) deal with the Sound Tigers after his senior year in 2012-13. In eight games with Stockton, the Bayside, NY native collected three assists.

In a large pot of rapidly boiling salted water, cook soba noodles until al dente according to package instructions; drain.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together tamarind, sugar, 2 tablespoons oil, lime juice, and cayenne. Add drained noodles, cilantro, onion, half the papaya, and all but 3 tablespoons of the peanuts; season with salt and pepper and toss to combine.
In a large skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil over low. Add garlic and cook until golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes total. Remove garlic chips and set aside on a paper towel. Raise heat to medium-high; add shrimp, sprinkle with coriander, salt, and pepper, and cook, tossing occasionally, until shrimp are just cooked through, about 3 minutes.
To serve, divide noodles and shrimp evenly among four large bowls; top each serving with remaining papaya, peanuts, garlic chips, and cilantro.
This was a excellent dish. I tried it out on my family, but it could easily be a meal for guests.... Loved it. Do all the prep work ahead of time and then the actual l.ast minute stuff takes 5- 10 0ver a glass of wine.....Reply
yum! This was so tasty and delicious with lots of leftovers. Very different spicy flavor which is what made it so complex, interesting and yummy. My boyfriend said to add this to the collection for sure! :) Couldn't find taramind concentrate in the grocery store so looked up a substitute of lemon and brown sugar instead I think? Worked wellReply
are those nutritional figures correct?? it seems awfully high in calories and fat per serving considering the ingredients.Reply
I didn't have papaya (I used mango instead), cilantro/coriander, or limes, and I didn't add peanuts. I also only used half the soba noodles as I find them rather filling. It was delicious! Also, I ate only half a serving, and it was more than enough to keep me satisfied (and I usually like to eat a lot!). The portion looked small, but it was the perfect amount. I hope others try this.Reply

J.C. Penney Co. is closing some stores, outlets and call center locations — including two in metro Atlanta — and continuing to work on an exit from its catalog business in an effort to streamline operations and boost profits, Associated Press is reporting.
The retailer's exit of its legacy catalog business includes shuttering 19 outlet stores that carry a large amount of catalog merchandise, AP writes. Penney announced in November 2009 that it would stop publishing its twice-yearly "big book" catalogs.
Do you still shop by using a catalog? Or do you now go online? Which way works better for you?

Yes both online and hardcopy. I guess they figured out that some things can be returned w/o using a store front!
January 24th, 2011
10:21 am
I had no idea JC Penney still existed as a retailer. I have not seen a JC Penney store since the 80s and have not read or heard of their brand since.
January 24th, 2011

As a kid growing up, I always like the catalog, but I haven't seen anything from JCP in years. Come to think of it, I can't remember the last time I saw one of their stores.
January 24th, 2011
10:27 am
I think the only catalog I use is Ikea…but I prefer online shopping.
January 24th, 2011
10:36 am
Only online.
January 24th, 2011
11:16 am
Shop only by Catalog
January 24th, 2011
11:26 am
I love JCP. I perfer to shop online but there are times when I need to try clothing on my kids to make sure they fit them correctly. I shop the Southlake store often and I am very sad they are closing the store.
January 24th, 2011
11:33 am
Whats a catalog? 21 Century anyone?
January 24th, 2011
11:33 am
JCP has a reasonable big-and-tall men's selection, which is good for my family. The company needs a more visible online presence. It is behind the times in that respect.
January 24th, 2011
11:55 am
I have not shopped at JCP for many years, used to shop their catalog but now shop exclusively online. The service is much better and prices can be lower.
January 24th, 2011
11:59 am
Catalogs have been around. They are older than radio. Gosh I can remeber old Grandpa picking out a pair of overalls and a tennis racket way back when. You could get just about anything from those catalogs. Mind you, it's not like the shopping experince you get when you go there yourself. If you look it up it was a national scandal when they started selling ladies undergarments in the catalogs. Grandpa about fell over when he heard that news. Mama had to hide that catalog in the old hope chest.
Now you go online and its no big deal. I think it may be a smart deal to do that. However I sure hate to see it go. I can remember everyone running like whatever for the mailbox. When that catalog came in.
January 24th, 2011
12:03 pm
As a former employee of JCPenney, I must say I still love a catalog. I may use it only for reference and shop buy online, but I still love the catalog concept.
I have to wonder though if the closures of the ATL market stores don't have more to do with the local markets around the stores than the stores themselves. Why does Qwinnett County ignore the Pleasant Hill corridor in preference to Sugarloaf or Buford? I would close any of my stores there too since he mall and community have done nothing to keep the business there.
January 24th, 2011
12:45 pm
Used to shop there with mom when I was growing up in Atlanta, before they closed Perimeter Mall location some years ago; other locations were/are inconvenient to intown residents (N. Point, Southlake, Town Center) Liked their big book as well, but we'd look in the book then go to the store. Now as an adult, out of state, I shop there occasionally. I never buy from any catalog… that is so archaic! It's either online or in-store for me!
January 24th, 2011
12:48 pm
You bet I use their catalog department all the time for Big&Tall clothes. I just recently bought a new suit from them. There is no other store catalog like them when it comes to larger and taller sizes at reasonable prices. But I also buy some of their clothes through the online catalog as well. It sounds like that isn't going to change.
January 24th, 2011
12:57 pm
I shop both catalog and on-line. I don't have the time nor do I want to spend hours walking around stores trying to find what I want. The only time I have ever found what I was looking for in a store was when I was just looking and not shopping for anything in particular and I've not done that in years but I would like to know if the regular JC Penny Stores are going to allow on-line purchases be returned to their stores once there are no more catalog desks.
January 24th, 2011
12:58 pm
I don't really use their catalog, but I certainly am sorry to see them leave. There is a JCP near me, but sometimes I prefer to go to the Pleasant Hill Mall store because they better cater to my "demographic" in clothes. I certainly have no problem with a store buying and carrying those styles that it can sell better in a given locale, but it is certainly frustrating when they close one that I can usually find items at. I can certainly understand their move however as that mall has really gone downhill in the past 10 years. Pleasant Hill road is a nightmare to navigate and all the other losses at the mall only further hurt big department stores like JCP.
January 24th, 2011
1:10 pm
Southern Lady, online orders can already be returned to the store.
JCP's catalog and online business is all the same. They're processed the same way and pulled from the same inventory. Catalogs are just the outdated way of placing the order.
January 24th, 2011
1:25 pm
I shop only with the catalog since there is no Penny's near me. It is at least an hour or more away.
January 24th, 2011
2:14 pm
i shop the southlake store often and am very sad to see it go. JCP is a sleeper! i have bought many fashionable items there that i've gotten many compliments on and folks can't believe it when i tell them i got it at JCP. they have several designer lines in there for very reasonable prices. their own house brands are of extremely good quality and very well priced. there is one particular brand and style of sweater that i buy in a different color every year for me and and my sister around christmas time. i never buy from a catalog. i buy online sometimes, but their stores have a better inventory than their online offerings. i'm hoping big things for them as they really have great ideas and very fashionable items, just need to market their brands better.
January 24th, 2011
3:10 pm
I have not used a catolog in years although they were very handy back in 1975 when I lived out of the county. Online only. The stores are too far away and far between.
January 24th, 2011
3:57 pm
I for one was sorry to see Rich's go. I would shop and shop there. Sometimes Davisons. I don't know what happened to all those great department stores. Everythings so new now and you don't know where to start there is so much. If we had those great department stores. Maybe things would be a whole lot better now. They need to bring back Rich's. If they did that I would go there at least once a week.
They used to have catalogs to. I remember.
January 24th, 2011
4:09 pm
I most certainly do use and prefer the catalogs.
January 24th, 2011
4:24 pm
Primarily online, but I use specialty catalogs to "point" me to the websites that would be the best candidates. Web searches are fine, but have learned that whoever buys advertising space seems to get the page 1 links so seems a lot of good potentials are missed unless there's a lot of time to spend staring at the computer screen. Example, I'll check the NY Times bestseller list and THEN check Borders/Amazon/BooksaMillion for a specific book title.
January 24th, 2011
4:38 pm
Yes, I am sadden to hear of the Southlake location closing. It is indeed the JC Penney store. We already have to travel so far on the southside to JC Penney's. Yes I still use the catalog. JC Penney's has always been an ideal source of draperies/comforters/bathroom towels & accessories. Atlanta continues to lose great stores and more of its history as we did when we lost Richs and Davisons.
January 24th, 2011
4:40 pm
I've haven't looked at a catalog or read an actual newspaper in about 10 years. Why waste time when everything is online now?
January 24th, 2011
4:47 pm
I still get catalogs in the mail, and enjoy thumbing through them at my leisure, but when it comes time to buy I go online and use the catalog as a reference. Several Christmas presents from L.L. Bean were bought this way.
January 24th, 2011
5:22 pm
what is this thing you call a "catalog"?
January 24th, 2011
8:58 pm
HTH… Davison's transformed into Macy's. Rich's was bought by Macy's who eventually dropped the Rich's name and replaced it with the Macy's name. I recently recommend to Arthur Blank that he should sell the Falcons, get them out of Atlanta and then open a new Rich's. He knows retail (e.g., Home Depot) and he could create/revive the Great Rich's experience. Everyone would be happy with another great department store; and, most would be happy with the Falcons gone for good from Atlanta.
January 24th, 2011
9:30 pm
I prefer to shop online. It's much easier and you don't have to go into a store and be tempted by other merchandise. Online is much better for comparison shopping. But I hate to see the center in Forest Park close.

OLYMPIA, Wash. -- One worker says, "It's not much, but it's something." The minimum wage increases in several states, including Washington, Arizona, Colorado, Montana and Oregon as of today.
Sixteen-year-old high school students Miranda Olson says the raise at her part-time cafe job will help her toward her goal of buying a car.
Many workers around the country won't be as lucky as residents of Washington state, which is raising its minimum wage by 15 cents an hour to $9.19 even though it already has the highest state baseline in the country.

Like most hackers, he has ripped apart, modified and rewritten every electron and every bit possible – and under proper supervision has even gotten to play with a few really expensive toys. He now spends his time bootstrapping his DARPA CFT project (Netoko), hacking automotive networks (GoodThopter), or playing with academics as a Visiting Scholar at the University of Pennsylvania. Banasidhe (pronounced ban-shee) is currently the volunteer Producer and President of the Board for Security BSides Las Vegas, Inc., (as well as 2IC for DCSkytalks and 2IC of PhySec for DerbyCon). With literally decades of Event Planning, Production, Logistics, Operations and Security experience, she stepped down as Safety & Security Director of BSidesLV two years ago and stepped-up into her current role as Producer, to ensure that BSidesLV continues to live up to the irreverant, uncommon, wake-up call to conventional InfoSec Conferences, that was conceived by her predecessor five years ago. Since taking the helm at BSidesLV, banasidhe has instituted several new tracks, including an OTR track, an AFK, community oriented track, and a Mentorship program for first time presenters. Banasidhe's actual day job is Director of Operations for the SECore.info division of the Open Security Foundation, where she's working on finding the funding to pull the site out of beta and into the stark, glaring light of day.

Farming's bad times recalledBy Pam Berenger, Dispatch/Argus Staff writer
There are good and bad times in farming, according to Conrad ``Connie'' Wilson of Coal Valley.
The 1970s were the good times, according to Mr. Wilson. The 1980s were the bad.
``It was lovely in the '70s,'' Mr. Wilson said. ``People overbought and thought it would never end. Then the bottom fell out and everyone had to tighten their belts.''
Tightening his belt meant no entertainment for the family and no new equipment for the farm, he said.
The 1970s were a decade of growth. Land prices soared to more than $4,000 an acre for prime farmland and loans were easy to get.
Comparatively, the 1980s were a decade of despair. Interest rates skyrocketed and land prices plummeted. Farmers no longer had equity and lost borrowing power. Many barely scraped together enough to plant their spring crops. Some went bankrupt, others were just broke.
Mr. Wilson said none of his friends went under, most were raised during the Depression and did not overextend themselves. They had learned from the 1930s when there was no money, unlike the 1980s when there was little money.
In a news article in 1986, a farmer, using the name Bob as an alias, told The Dispatch of his nightmares with lenders during that period. His problems started in 1981 with an outbreak of pseudorabies that ended up taking about 74 percent of his hogs.
Although he lost about $150,000 that year, he was unable to qualify for a low-interest loan through the Farmer's Home Administration (FmHA) because the government program used previously filed income tax returns.
The drought of 1983 hurt even more and he was back at FmHA. This time Bob qualified for a loan. The next few years were a roller coaster ride for Bob as he paid off one loan, just in time to apply for another. Loan delays cost him discounts for early payment of his seed.
Less and less money was coming in. Thoughts of buying new equipment became alien. Bob said buying a pair of pliers was major decision. He applied for food stamps and was turned down because of the equity he had in his land.
The entire process was humiliating and he refused to apply again.
Embarrassment and humiliation were rampant among farmers. Crisis hotlines were busy 24 hours a day from farmers wanting to talk about their pain.
On Dec. 8, 1985 a Johnson County Iowa farmer shot and killed John Hughes, a Hills, Iowa, bank president.
To generalize the feeling of that era is nearly impossible, Dave Lins, a University of Illinois professor of financial management, said.
Some were telling their neighbors, ``I told you so, you took a risk you shouldn't have,'' Mr. Lins said. There were some farm operations that actually grew in the 1980s. Those farmers had not purchased land in the 1970s as prices were rising, Mr. Lins said.
For those who did take the risk, losing farms that had been in the family for up to 100 years was unforgivable. They tried year after year to overcome the financial burden with the belief it would get better, he said.
``A lot of their depression was financial,'' he said. ``However, much was a sense of failure to think that land that had been in their family for 60, 80 or 100 years was gone and that they were the one who lost it.''

EMERYVILLE, CA — A group of janitors who were laid off from Pixar Animation Studios earlier this year held protests yesterday outside Pixar''s Emeryville, California, headquarters, according to the San Jose Mercury News.
Nine of the 21 janitors who cleaned and maintained the campus were laid off in January when Pixar entered into contract with the janitorial firm Preferred Building Services Inc., the story stated.
According to the story, the ousted janitors adopted the robot janitor character from the Disney/Pixar movie "WALL-E" as their poster child.
Sylvia Ruiz, political director for Service Employees International Union-United Service Workers West (SEIU-USW West), said: "As soon as they switched, they laid off the workers, took away health care benefits for the remaining ones and left them making $9.25 an hour. It''s pretty ironic that WALL-E was a janitor, and they can profit by a cartoon janitor, but they can treat human janitors like trash."
The SEIU-USW West represents the remaining 12 janitors fortunate enough to keep their jobs, the story noted.
The demonstrations come after months of petitions and letter-writing campaigns by SEIU to Pixar, demanding the company work with the union and rehire the laid-off employees, the story added.

The naval employees at Newport's Navy Base are a big part of driving the local economy. Some business owners worry if those workers are furloughed, they won't be spending any money.
Coddingtown Brewing Company in Middletown is just around the corner from the Newport Naval base, making it a hot spot for the thousands of government workers.
"We do get a lot of contractors coming in and out from Virginia, Washington, and Massachusetts area,"said owner Billy Christy.
Christy took over the family restaurant and bar 17 years ago. In that time, he's seen his fair share of ups and downs with his government paid customers.
"Different contracts come and go and different things change on the base over the years, but we're still here," grinned Christy.
Christy knows what the government shutdown and furloughs will ultimately do to his business.
"The island does depend on those people over there, there's thousands of people that work over there," he said.
Customer Chuck Dennis is vacationing in Rhode Island from Pennsylvania where he works in a warehouse as a government employee. He's wondering if he'll have a job to return to.
"When I get there they'll tell me either come on in or go home well let you know when to come back,"said Dennis.
It's a waiting game for millions of Americans who will be affected by a possible government shutdown. Christy is just bracing for the impact, hoping it won't last long.
"Hopefully people don't lose their jobs tomorrow and they get their paychecks, that's the big thing, because their paycheck is our local economy on this island," he said.

KACHINA CARVERKevin Horace-Quannie
Phoenix & Third Mesa, Hopi Indian Reservation
Over the past 32 years, Kevin Horace-Quannie has cut himself 10 times — not bad, considering what he does for a living. He's a Hopi/Navajo kachina-doll carver, and those nicks are just part of the job. "The knife is so sharp," he says. "All you have to do when you cut yourself is clean it out and use Super Glue." His award-winning carvings, which sell for between $100 and $10,000, are refined and elegant — his years of experience etched into each masterpiece. "My kachinas are very contemporary," he notes. "But they still represent the traditional style." He makes most of his pieces with cottonwood root, but Horace-Quannie likes to experiment, too. Recently, he's been creating bronze and glass kachina dolls, and he plans to produce a piece composed of all three materials. "Collectors want to see growth," he says. "They want to grow with you."

Médecins Sans Frontières calls for honesty about Somalia
President of Doctors Without Borders says charities must admit that much of the country can't be helped
The international president of Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), Dr Unni Karunakara, returned from Somalia last week and said that, even though there was chronic malnutrition and drought across east Africa, hardly any agencies were able to work inside war-torn Somalia, where the picture was "profoundly distressing". He condemned other organisations and the media for "glossing over" the reality in order to convince people that simply giving money for food was the answer.
He said charities needed to start treating the public "like adults". He went on: "There is a con, there is an unrealistic expectation being peddled that you give your £50 and suddenly those people are going to have food to eat. Well, no. We need that £50, yes; we will spend it with integrity. But people need to understand the reality of the challenges in delivering that aid. We don't have the right to hide it from people; we have a responsibility to engage the public with the truth."
"We're being honest with donors and we have always been honest," said Bray. "A drought is a natural occurrence; a famine is man-made. We don't go around to people saying we have a magic wand, give us £5 and we will make Africa feed itself. We do say give us £5 and we won't use it to give you a history of Somalia, but we will use our expertise to save lives. This is what the bargain is we make with our donors. If you support us, we will do our level best to alleviate the distress for those people in most dire need." >continue<

The Institution of Village Rules and Regulations at Leigongshan National Nature Reserve
To start this public participation case, project researchers interviewed officials at the Management Bureau of Leigongshan National Nature Reserve, villagers from 3 rural townships, CSO's and media from July 11 to July 17, 2009. Through these interviews we wanted to discover what actions the government took to lead and improve public participation but also the villagers' views about the officials' work.
This case is significant in that it would help us find out how government leads and improves public participation in a regulatory framework. Due of a lack of preparation before starting the interviews, we didn't know that the villagers speak Miao, and as a result we couldn't communicate effectively with them which wasted the villager's time. We had to find individuals to temporarily translate which delayed the interview process. In the future we will keep this experience in mind and make a full investigation in advance, so we can work more effectively.
From this case, we know that the Management Bureau of Leigongshan National Nature Reserve attaches importance to let villagers participate in the institution of village rules and regulations and that they make a lot of efforts to do so but their working methods are not always adequate. We also discovered that Medias, CSOs, corporations, etc. payed little attention to this case, and the Management Bureau of the Reserve hasn't attached a lot importance to their influence yet, so they couldn't help facilitate the institution of village rules and regulations.
Our hope is that our research on this case will attract more people's attention on the institution of village rules and regulations of Leigongshan National Nature Reserve.

Leader in System Automation, OS Containers and Desktop Virtualization to Offer Powerful Combination of Solutions for Heterogeneous Environments
SEATTLE and HERNDON, Va. - December 12, 2007 - SWsoft, a worldwide leader in virtualization and automation software, announced today that early in 2008 it will adopt "Parallels" as its new corporate name. The company also unveiled its "Optimized Computing" vision, which focuses on providing consumers, business and service providers with the industry's broadest portfolio of multi-platform virtualization and automation software.
The cornerstone of the Optimized Computing vision is the Parallels Open Platform – an overlay platform which brings together desktop and server virtualization plus system and business automation assets in conjunction with our rapidly expanding ecosystem of partner solutions for use in on-premise, hosted and software-as-a-service (SaaS) usage models. A visual representation of how the components of this vision work together is available at www.swsoft.com/optimizedcomputing.
"This is the first in a series of moves that will help our customers and partners realize the benefits of what we are calling 'Optimized Computing'," said Serguei Beloussov, CEO, SWsoft. "This means enhancing Windows, Linux, Mac, x86 and ia64-based bare metal systems with innovative hypervisor-based virtualization, container-based virtualization and a suite of complementary automation solutions. Truly optimized computing requires virtualization, system automation and business automation components - which our company is unique in providing."
Delivering on the Vision
New products expected in 2008 to help deliver on the company vision include version 4.0 of the company's Virtuozzo container-based virtualization software, a server-based hypervisor later in 2008, and major updates to Parallels Desktop and Parallels Workstation.
Also in 2008, the company will be introducing new virtualization management software that will manage not only Virtuozzo and Parallels but also popular third-party virtualization technologies in a single, flexible solution.
Multiple SWsoft products will soon be renamed gradually as an expansion of a descriptive product naming strategy for clarity, simplicity and strength. For example, SWsoft PEM and HSPcomplete will be renamed to Parallels System Automation and Parallels Business Automation. A list of current and future product names is available at www.swsoft.com/optimizedcomputing.
Building the Future on a Foundation of Success
SWsoft has more than doubled revenues every year for the past 8 years. Its products have won a remarkable 27 awards in the past 12 months and are represented by 55 patents (issued or pending). The combined SWsoft team now includes 900 people worldwide - a 50 percent increase over the last year.
In addition to organic growth, the company has made three acquisitions in recent months and is actively pursuing additional targets that will support and extend its corporate and product strategy.
SWsoft currently goes to market with more than 500 official partners, including Microsoft, Intel, Apple, Dell, IBM , HP, AMD and SGI.
Offering innovative hypervisor-based virtualization for platform flexibility along with container-based virtualization for performance and manageability underpins the company's virtualization technology strategy.
The company's suite of popular automation software helps individuals and organizations maximize the value they can realize within their computing environments - from a single hosted website or SaaS-based application to complex, large-scale enterprise datacenters.
The company will soon begin using its new name along with a new corporate logo that symbolizes the company's new vision. A preview of the new logo and corporate icon is available at www.swsoft.com/optimizedcomputing. In early 2008, existing SWsoft and Parallels websites will be unified into a single presence at www.parallels.com.
About SWsoft
SWsoft is a global leader in virtualization and automation software that helps consumers, businesses, and service providers optimize their use of technology. The company's software is used by more than 700,000 customers in 125 countries. The SWsoft product line includes Virtuozzo - the leading operating system virtualization solution, Parallels - the leading desktop virtualization product, and Plesk - the leading server control panel. Founded in 1999, the company has offices throughout North America, Europe, and Asia. For more information, visit www.swsoft.com.
