The Strip: A Steakhouse, A Buffet, and A Reasonably priced restaurant
- terramassu May 1, 2013 11:09 AM
Hi there,
I'll be heading to Vegas from California for a few days later in Summer, and will be staying on the strip and have access to a car. We prefer places that take reservations or have shorter lines.
Help would be appreciated:
The two of us are looking for:
- A steakhouse for either lunch or dinner, for no more than $50 per person (doesn't include tax and tip) with either prime rib, bone-in rib eye, strip. We were considering CUT, Carnevino, and Delmonico, but are open to suggestions. ( If there is a non-steakhouse restaurant in Vegas that would be ultra memorable, for no more than $50 per person that would work too!)
- A Buffet for weekday lunch. We like crab legs, and seafood, but are also meat eaters and are considering Studio B buffet- but if you know of a better one, we'd love to hear your suggestion. Under $25 per person. (Also, is there a best time to go?)
- A few restaurants for lunch/ dinner that are under $25 per person- (though ideally, we'd love to find a place for less than $20 for both of us- are there no "cheap places on/near the strip" with decent food? ) Places that are good value for the money. A few ideas: Lotus of Siam, Estiatorio Milos... Tacos Gordos...
Suggestions welcome. Thank you!
re: Njchicaa
Yikes, about the steak and water. I guess we'll have to adjust our fancy dinner budget upward!
Thanks for the vote for Estiatorio Milos. We'll definitely keep it in mind!
re: terramassu
Also E. Milos lunch is a good deal if you don't order a cocktail. We did and they were $16 each... which brought the price per head to $38 before tip. Still worth it, though, IMO.
I am a fourteen year resident of Las Vegas. Most of the steakhouses on the Strip, including the ones you mentioned, are a la carte at dinner. Their steaks at lunch are also a la carte. You may want to consider The Flame at the El Cortez which is Downtown or The Prime Rib Loft and/or Canal Street both of which are located at the Orleans. The Orleans is in West Tropicana about a mile west of the Strip. Except for a food courts at some of the casinos, you're not going to find lunch or dinner for $10 per person on the Strip. There are no cheap eats on the Strip. Expect to spend on the higher end of the $25 per person range to eat. I would do either Wicked Spoon buffet at the Cosmopolitan or the Bellagio buffet before the buffet at The M. The Wicked Spoon is only open for brunch and dinner. It is closed between 2:00 pm and 5:00 pm. The Bellagio buffet doesn't close between meals. Dinner starts at 3:30 pm. Get in line and pay before 3:30 pm and pay the lunch price and stay for dinner. Both are in your price range for brunch/lunch. Ellis Island Casino microbrews their own beer and root beer. They have an off the menu $8.99 steak special. It includes a twenty ounce beer or root beer, soup or salad, ten ounce top sirloin, green beans and choice of rice or potato. They also have very good BBQ. They start serving the BBQ at 4:00 pm. You need to their at 3:00 pm to get your name on the list. I give you some off the Strip recommendations that fit your price range if you list the types of cuisine you like.
re: Eric
Thanks for chiming in! Hmm.. as far as the types of cuisine I like, it's a long list, in no order,: Greek, Japanese, Thai, Chinese, Korean, French, Healthy/Light/Vegan/Vegetarian, Middle-eastern, Vietnamese, seafood... and lots more... In short, I eat anything and am adventurous in regards to food. Though, I don't find myself craving "American " food too much, however, my dining companion also appreciates a good burger, pizza or hot dog . Though he is a creature of habit, I'm sure he can be convinced to try a new restaurant while we're out there.
re: terramassu
A happy compromise on the Strip would be Mon Amo Gabi for lunch. Some off the Strip restaurants would be Shish Kabob House, Table 34, Rincon de Buenos Aires, DW Bistro and the oyster bar at Palace Station. All of these restaurants, in addition to those you mentioned in your original post, have their menus online.
re: Eric
I was really excited to eat at Prime Rib Loft but was disappointed by the prime rib. The prices were less -expensive than most places that we visited. Meals came with potatoes and I think maybe a salad. (I always decline so I have more room for the meat) My husband said his prime rib was better than what we get locally. I preferred the local version.
We are split on it. I wouldn't go back but my husband and friend said they definitely would.
There are tons of places for your under $25 p.p. lunch/dinner, but use that car and get off the strip.
If you order judiciously, you can get out of Lotus for that amount. Estiatorio Milos is only affordable at lunch on the special -- drinks are, as described, very expensive.
You can eat to your heart's content at Tacos El Gordo, lunch at Chada Thai is only $9 p.p. (with a GOOD glass of wine, $15), Viva Las Arepas makes a filling, cheap lunch, Monta (2 locations) has great ramen, etc.
re: Dave Feldman
Cool, thanks! If you had to choose one restaurant of the ones you mentioned, is there a preference for a restaurant that is either your favorate or a "must visit"?
I've heard a lot about Lotus, i.e. " best Thai food in America.." And I've heard good things about Milos. Or alternate question, Milos or Lotus?
re: terramassu
I don't know where you are in California. If you are in L.A., you've got many great Thai options available to you, and good Greek food is hard to come by.
I think the food is better at Lotus, and at Milos your choices are more constricted, but I think the lunch special menu is pretty good: http://www.cosmopolitanlasvegas.com/p...
Note that there are supplemental charges for some of the appetizers and entrees at Milos.
It's been a while for me, but if it's still as good as it used to be the Steakhouse at Circus Circus may be what you're looking for. It was the best steak deal on the strip in days gone by, and this was for a real, excellent, aged on the premises prime steak, not a cut-rate thing. According to the current menu, the basic steak dinner with sides hits your price point of $50 exactly.
Any recent opinions on the place?
We went this past Jan and I was very much looking forward to Estiarorio Milos and we were very disappointed. I hate t contradict the positive reviews here but thought I'd throw in my $0.02.
Here is my review from yelp:
"We went for the price fixe lunch. Don't bother. Go somewhere else. It isn't worth the $20.13.
Service wasn't attentive (had to repeatedly ask for more water or another beverage). I had the lobster and I could barely cut it with a knife! Was so chewy that I didn't even finish it.
The dessert was not edible. Tasted like soap."
re: RedBeans04
Hmm, fair enough.
re: RedBeans04
I also went in January - it was excellent
re: kagemusha49
I'm so bummed that we had such a bad experience! I'd say we should try it again based on all the good reviews but I'd hate to waste another meal there.
Maybe their regular lunch and regular dinner is better than the 3 course special?
re: RedBeans04
I had the lunch special - I did upgrade to the octopus ($10 more) and it was great - but the regular offering looked pretty darn good too
re: RedBeans04
I was there for the lunch special in late March and loved it. In fact, all 3 of us loved it. We had the bagel appetizer and the mezze platter, the whole fish and the shrimp/couscous, and the yogurt martini dessert. I would 100% go back there. The price is now $22.13.
So here's what we did:
-Lotus of Siam: Ordered the garlic prawns, which was memorable and delicious though it was deep fried. The shell was edible, and it was a hearty amount of shrimp meat. There was some oil perhaps a chili garlic oil on top. We also got crispy rice appetizer, which had sour and spicy notes which counteracted the oil. We also had the duck curry, which had a deep, rich taste of coconut milk. And, we ordered the drunken noodles, which is a sweet savory take on flat rice noodles, which we had with the sea bass. Overall, delicious, and we were definitely ordered a lot of food. Though people say that there are small portions, most of the dishes we ordered were fried, so we were full.
- Buffet: Ended up splurging on Buffet instead of Steakhouse and went to Cesar's Palace. Impressed that they had hot crab legs and the tomahawk steak and lamb chops were well seasoned and cooked tenderly. I really enjoyed the molten lava cake and the potato gratin with a strong truffle flavor.
- Estiatorio Milos: Octopus, Bass, and Yogurt. Highly recommend this place. Great service, octopus had the perfect texture, the grilled bass was light and simple- with lemon, olive oil and very moist. The yogurt was heavenly. My date ordered the tomatoes and feta appetizer, and I liked the freshness of the ingredients with a little vinagrette. He ordered the lambchops which were also cooked nicely and highlighted the lamb flavor. The walnut cake was a bit on the dry side, but had this ice cream on top that tasted almost rustic and like a forest. Also liked the sourdough wheat blended bread and olive oil with zataar.

Alicia Ostriker, "A Young Woman, A Tree"
The life spills over, some days.
She cannot be at rest,
Wishes she could explode
Like that red tree—
The one that bursts into fire
All this week.
Senses her infinite smallness
But can't seize it,
Recognizes the folly of desire,
The folly of withdrawal—
Kicks at the curb, the pavement,
If only…
Just found my poem .
Best day or what?
The goal is to understand your true self before launching an action plan. Deep realizations about yourself don't come all in one sitting. Be your own ethnographer for a month. One of the people that I admire most in the world is Jane Goodall. Imagine Jane sitting in the forest, looking at those chimpanzees with compassion and curiosity. Take on her kind tone and attitude while observing yourself. Be gentle and curious but never judgmental. This is very hard for us to do because we're always talking shit to ourselves.
Take a notebook and notice every time you get excited about something. It doesn't have to be a big moment or work related… Just write it down each time—no judgments. What happens over the course of the month is you start seeing some patterns. It gives you a peek into your authenticity and things that energize you. When your whole body lights up with joy, it's really trying hard to tell you something—it's saying, "hey, this is important, please pay attention."
You need to spend time understanding who you truly are before you forge a path. If you're making plans based on other people's perception of you or the perception of yourself that you want to project based on some external force, you'll always end up in the wrong place.

Who am I?' is the question that the mind cannot answer. In that impossibility it stops. You know, it's like computers — when you put something in that they cannot handle, they just crash. It's the same with the mind. If the mind asks itself 'Who am I?', it cannot solve it. It cannot solve it because all that it knows is name and form. That which is the source of the mind is completely beyond name and form, so it cannot put it into a box. In that impossibility, the mind just stops. That which remains as consciousness is the real you. That is the way home, cutting through everything that is there — passion, fear, pain, whatever. The real you is all that remains.

How to talk to your daughter about her body, step one: don't talk to your daughter about her body, except to teach her how it works.
Don't say anything if she's lost weight. Don't say anything if she's gained weight.
If you think your daughter's body looks amazing, don't say that. Here are some things you can say instead:
"You look so healthy!" is a great one.
Or how about, "you're looking so strong."
"I can see how happy you are – you're glowing."
Better yet, compliment her on something that has nothing to do with her body.
Don't comment on other women's bodies either. Nope. Not a single comment, not a nice one or a mean one.
Teach her about kindness towards others, but also kindness towards yourself.
Don't you dare talk about how much you hate your body in front of your daughter, or talk about your new diet. In fact, don't go on a diet in front of your daughter. Buy healthy food. Cook healthy meals. But don't say "I'm not eating carbs right now." Your daughter should never think that carbs are evil, because shame over what you eat only leads to shame about yourself.
Encourage your daughter to run because it makes her feel less stressed. Encourage your daughter to climb mountains because there is nowhere better to explore your spirituality than the peak of the universe. Encourage your daughter to surf, or rock climb, or mountain bike because it scares her and that's a good thing sometimes.
Help your daughter love soccer or rowing or hockey because sports make her a better leader and a more confident woman. Explain that no matter how old you get, you'll never stop needing good teamwork. Never make her play a sport she isn't absolutely in love with.
Prove to your daughter that women don't need men to move their furniture.
Teach your daughter how to cook kale.
Teach your daughter how to bake chocolate cake made with six sticks of butter.
Pass on your own mom's recipe for Christmas morning coffee cake. Pass on your love of being outside.
Maybe you and your daughter both have thick thighs or wide ribcages. It's easy to hate these non-size zero body parts. Don't. Tell your daughter that with her legs she can run a marathon if she wants to, and her ribcage is nothing but a carrying case for strong lungs. She can scream and she can sing and she can lift up the world, if she wants.
Remind your daughter that the best thing she can do with her body is to use it to mobilize her beautiful soul.

text: Bogmalo beach is dominated by a huge 5-star hotel located right on its edge and is cut apart from both the North and South beach circuit. Being just 4 kms away from the Goa Airport at Dabolim, it is a favorite among the elite classes and has an air of exclusivity. Although the resort hotel towers above the village, there is couple of smaller places to stay. Windsurfing and water skiing facilities are available.Despite its small size, Bogmalo has a range of accommodation and places to eat. It is situated in a small bay, with around a mile of curving sandy beach, which is generally very quiet. It benefits from some beautiful sunsets. Thanks to its location almost exactly halfway along Goa's coast, Bogmalo is an ideal base for exploring the whole state. Fit for swimming during the tourist season and lined with small shops of artifacts and shacks offering tasty local food.

Some test Results Back, ( NEEDED TO VENT.)
Find a Conversation
|Mon, 11-22-2010 - 5:12pm
So my doctor FINALLY got back to my on the test results! And all the Blood work Looks Great he said No Clotting Disorders ....He did the Repeated loss panel! and whatever else is inculuded in that was all great also! Its so crazy I mean I guess that is Good news?
|Mon, 11-22-2010 - 6:21pm
Jessica, I know a bit of how you feel. I had all sorts of testing done after my miscarriage (it's my 2nd as well). All the clotting disorders came back "normal" and I also had some tests for Lupus and some other auto-immune things done as well. Everything has come back "normal". I did start charting my cervical mucus and after the first cycle, my doctor didn't like the spotting for days on end, so they tested my progesterone properly (3-4dpo, 7dpo, and 11dpo) - my former OB/GYN just did a generic test once along with all sorts of other hormone levels without regard to where I was in my cycle. I just got those results back and it looks like my progesterone isn't as high as they want it to be. I hope they will put me on some progesterone supps and that insurance will cover it as a hormone therapy rather than an infertility treatment. If not, I'll be paying out of pocket for it.
But, I just wanted to let you know that you're not alone. I went through that - no answers to anything. Everything looked "normal" and it is definitely so frustrating! Are they going to make sure everything is ok with your uterus? Do you think they'll do a follicle study, or is it not really a matter of GETTING pg, but rather staying that way? I seem to be having trouble with both, so I've been through all sorts of testing.
I hope things work out so you can get that u/s and they can help you find SOMETHING that can explain things! Congratulations on getting yourself healthier! I'm sure that isn't easy, but hopefully it will also help and make your baby healthy as well!

Sorry I know how you feel about wanting answers.
I had a clotting disorder but all my Drs say thats not cause of my losses, so go figure.
It really is better news that everything looks good as annoying as it seems.
God luck with quitting smoking & exercise program

I know how frustrating it is to be told you're normal, and yet still have these losses to endure.

Investors got little warning on Intuitive Surgical's (NASDAQ: ISRG) big second quarter miss. The first most heard about it might have been the company's own press release – the company doesn't officially report until next week.

What his parents thinking! Even if he was born on Halloween, is that a good reason to give him this name? Will it haunt him the rest of his life?
A family in Alexandria, Louisiana celebrated Halloween by having a child -- and naming him Frederick Krueger.
The baby shares the name with horror movie character, Freddy Krueger from the "Nightmare On Elm Street" movies.
The parents decided to name their son Frederick when they found out they would have to have a C-section done on Halloween. The boy's father said Frederick is a family name but was also inspired by the horror movie franchise.

187. TAXI DRIVER (dir. Martin Scorsese, 1976) (Hong Kong International Film Festival)
What is there left to say about Scorsese's seminal tale of urban alienation and misguided vigilantism? Robert De Niro gives one of his most iconic performances as Vietnam veteran-turned-insomniac cabbie Travis Bickle, whose attempts to integrate back into society and play nice with Cybill Shepherd backfire horribly, sending him on a murderous crusade to wash the filth off New York City's streets. Seeing the film in its newly restored form in front of a packed crowd of both adoring fans and - from the reactions it was getting - a good percentage of first-timers was a revelation. Already one of my absolute favourite films, Scorsese's Palme D'Or winner revealed itself to be funnier than I had remembered, as well as brooding, brutal and just flat-out incredible in almost every department. A masterpiece in the truest sense of the word.

Cloes POV:
I can't believe what Mike just told me. I was in shock for a while i didn't say anything and when i did it sounded like i was wisphering.
" so you are a warwolf? why didn't you tell me before? does that mean i am one?" i asked sounding scared
" yeah i am a warewolf i have been sence i was 13 ( he is 16 now) and i wish i could tell you but mom didn't want me too she thought that you wouldn't trust us anymore. And no you are not a warewolf."
You see our dad died in a plane crash and it was when i was little like 3 or 4 so i really never knew my dad like MIke did.
" ok great well i wish you would have told me when you just turned a warewolf." i said sounding upset.
" i sorry i wish i did." and when mike said that i knew he was upset not at me but himself.
When Mike left i started getting my things ready for the big move. I just can't believe we are leaving New York and heading all the way to Califonia. I mean i always wanted to VISIT but never MOVE there. But i gues i will be okay becuse i am pretty social so i am sure to make new friends fast but Mike on the other hand is a little proctive ( i guess that is because he is a warwolf).
When i had all my things packed i went stright for Mikes room and right when i walked in there none of his things were packed typical he is always procrastnating.
" Hey" i said sounding tierd
" hey how is it going with the packing an all" Mike asked sounding like he really wasn't interested in me because he kept his eyes foucesd on the computer screen.
" fine i guess, i can see you have made a ton of progress" i said being sarcastic
" yeah i think i am going to stay up late tonight and pack i usally do better thinking at night" He said and now i knew why he stayed up so late at night it was because he was a warewolf.
" ok have fun" i said leaving his room and heading for mine. When i reached the room i went stright for the pjs i left on my desk and sliped into them and headed stright for bed.
Mikes POV
I knew i had to tell Cloe on why we were moving and what schools we were going to so i decied to tell her to later tomorrow morning and i am a little nervous on telling because the way she reacted kind of freaked me out that is why i didn't tell then.When i saw Cloe went to bed I statred to pack but i was to destracted by the fact that i was straving so i snuck out my bedroom window and headed for the woods behide our house. I was lucky i was able to find a few squialrs because i was afraid i was going to loose my mind if i didn't find anything. When i finished feeding i headed stright home and started packing. I finished around three in the moring and fell alseep on top of some boxes
Cloes POV
I got up bright and early and threw on a pair of jeans and a confy t-shirt. Today was moving day and i was kind of excited which was shocking because i usually hate moving. I moved all my boxes into the loading van and i then somthing dawed on me " OH CRAP!!!! i forgot to call Rebecca and Nicole to tell them i was moving," right when i said that i heaed for the home phone. I decied to call Nicole first because she is going to freak to much and i know she will call Rebecca right after and tell her. When it ranged for the third time i was about to give up but then she picked up.
" Hey Cloe why weren't you at school yesterday everyone was asking for you?" Nicole said all cheerfully like herself.
" Hey Nicole i have some thing i have to tell you. I am moving to California" I said really fast hoping she got all that so i wouldn't have to say it again
" WHAT?!?!?!?!" Nicole screamed. Then the line went dead. I knew that this was going to happen i just wasn't ready for this. I decied to wait a few mins because i knew Nicole would be calling Rebcca and telling her. When i decied to call Rebeccas' number she picked up right away.
" Hey so i herd your moving" Rebcca said sadly
" yeah I just hope Nicole will understand" i said hoping that Rebcca would comfort her
" Just give her sometime i know she will come around" She said reassuringly
" Thanks and I hope you guys could come and visit us over the Break" I said hoping that she would agree
" Defiantly we will always be here for you Cloe! OH hey I got to go talk to you later!" And then she hung up.
When i finished calling my friends i heaed stright outside.
" Hey there you are," my mom said " we are done putting everything in the moving van are you ready to go?" my mom asked souding excited
" Yeah, i am ready!" I said sounding excited and sad at the same time
" Great so lets go" My mom gave me a hug and then headed for the house to see if we had everything
I looked at our house one last time then got in the car and waited for my mom and Mike to get in the car.
to be contunied.....................
Hey guys i hope you enjoyed please leave a comment saying if your opion! And add me as a friend!

Language(s): English
Keyword(s):Formalism , Live Electronics , Electronic Music
In this article, the author reflects on the state of the art of electronic music in 1981. He argues that electronic music has failed to acknowledge or accept alternatives to the structuralist/formalist approach to composition, and so has little to do with the sensual experience that he contends music should be. He also discusses the (then) current state of electronic music performance and its usefulness in comparison to what performance is or should be, arguing that the drive towards perfection in electronic music production technology may well kill electronic/computer music.

Teaching Summer to BreatheSummer will always remind me of hot, sweltering nights spent drinking sangria, through the dripping fairy lights of your bedroom window. A sticky, starry sky looked back at us, the glow of the moon almost golden in the heat. Fourteen meant we weren't growing up fast enough and a liquor cabinet key seemed to hold the answer to that problem.You taught me how to drink that night.(You also showed me how beautiful it was to just hold your breath till your head spins and reality seems like it is going to fade further and further away.)-Six summers ago I met a boy who liked to tell me how much like summer I was. He was big boned and thin skinned and the first time I told him he wasn't mine to keep, he left handprints on my skin that reminded you of a canvas covered in autumn leaves that you saw in New York. Then you proceeded to break every single window in his house (Yes, even the one in the attic he loved so much.)You taught me how to smile through heartbreak that night.(You
Another Language called EnglishI took your adjectives for granted. There was something about the way you skipped over your 's'es and gleaned over your 'i's and 'e's, that never really made me want to kiss you. You'd sit there with your languid fingers clutching a book that was half finished, and read me words that were completely mispronounced. It would prickle me under my skin and I would grit my teeth, wondering when you would stop. I would never understand the english language you thought you spoke, and your confidence in your own words annoyed me.It was comical when you spoke in front of our friends. Your mistaken pronunciation of the word 'pronunciation' in particular made them giggle. I would stand in a corner, clutching a glass of rum and coke and cringe, flushing in second hand embarrassment. You would smile at me from across the room, and continue with your tangled tongue as though nothing was wrong.I felt sorry for you. But not sorry enough when you took your favourite writing pen from my d
A Little Bit of WonderlandHer name was Alyssa, and when she was nine, her mother built her Wonderland. After being raised on a healthy diet of Charles Dickens, Enid Blyton and J.M. Barrie, it seemed like the natural course of action. She created it out of paper, each scene indispensably, indisputably perfect in its imperfection.And she did it because Alyssa was terrified of the idea of falling through a rabbit hole, into a place that allows magic only when you are confused. Mothers do the most impractical, exhausting things to show how much they love their children. It seemed a pity that it was this very effort that kept Alyssa up all night, staring at the paper people like they were coming to get her.(If Alyssa's mother knew, she would have spent all her time trying to explain to the little girl that it wasn't just paper people she should be afraid of.)-God appeared to have a sense of humour when little Alice became Alyssa's best friend. She lives across the street, her hair always
My Name is Hollow.Hello.My name is Hollow.I live inside your soul.Under the layers and layers of skin,and tissue and muscle...all the way down where nothingand everything survives.(I wish I knew before I trusted youThat lying is second nature to onewith as many regrets as you.)My name is Hollow.I live inside you now,because you gave me the powerin all your virtuous beliefthat the world was goodto survive your strength...(I hoped to God you wouldn'tlie or steal or break what is alreadya thousand pieces of a broken soul.)My name is Hollow.You let me in when sexbegan to feel like an ache.But the pain felt better thandealing with the hurtinside your head, your heart...(This was always a world for thosethat were harder than meStrength is sometimes a very relative thing.)My name is Hollow.I am the jagged lines you drawall along your skin,your muscles, your bones...The sharp edge of a knife,the scarlet drops of remorse.(Here's a question now for your
Forever NeverlandGrace disliked Tinkerbell. She disliked her because she had wings and she could fly whereas Grace stayed on the ground, catching fireflies. The fireflies, in turn, made it easy because they knew she would let them go. She would stare at their radiant light in awe and try to understand how something so little could shine so very bright.She tried to pretend the bread she had in the mornings was ice cream flavoured, and even imagined her little brother had never been taken from them but had been enthralled and forever lost in Neverland. When she tried to explain this to her mother, her mother would look away quietly, and sometimes, rise with a quiet shudder...and leave the room.For a little girl who had the hope of the world resting quite easily on her head as a crown, she knew. She knew that one day, he would come for her and maybe, maybe they could be together again like they were in her dreams.As she grew older, she slept on a bed of green, with a desk of wood and a massive window t
Sea of Liesi.My father never read me the story of Icarus. I found it for myself. I suppose he did not want me to know what it was like to almost touch the stars. But it was only after I had read the story did I even try to reach so far. It is a little like falling in love...and then drowning in the sea.(I would be lying if I said the fall didn't break everything I had once believed was solid.)ii.My science teacher knew well that I was a dreamer. When I told her I believed fairytales were as real as love is, I could see the disapproval and disappointment in her eyes. I suppose thats why in her classroom, when I was asked what the greatest force in the universe was, I answered love. I suppose thats why she laughed and reminded me that love was as much a fairytale as the fairytales I believed in.(She was wrong. Love exists...its just been broken into a million little pieces, set afloat in a sea of heartbreak.)iii.My mother didn't want to speak about t
MouthfulsYou take mouthfuls of meHuge, selfish as they areLeaving morsels of me behindTeeth my words and chew up my heartBite through my spine with shark like jawsI am used, you explain, damaged,Dirty.Dirty for existing.Dirty for loving you.I ask you why you like to hurt me."I love you most when you ache on the inside."I have never hated myself more.
Pros and Cons1. I am not writing a list of things that will make me hate you, as you supposed, but more a list that would help me move on. I always hated how you were very practical that way, even about emotional distress. I am not writing about the trouble with you being your incorrigible logic, your lack of tact.2. I am not writing this because I have a habit of doing what you say, and perhaps, just maybe this would give me closure.3. I am not going to write about how beautiful your mouth is, and how it seems like something that would have been kisses by an angel.4. I am not going to write about how your voice tremors when you speak of loneliness.5. I am not going to write about how you are worthy of songs and dances and plays to be written for your lack of wonder at war, sex or alcohol, you aren't that interesting.6. I am not going to write about the day you sat me down and dragged me down with you, just so you could complain about how much I loved angel wings and sketches of pretty e
You call it Judgement, We call it SinEmily needs the words to understand that she isn't being unreasonable. She just wants them to mean something and not be a string of words which flows into itself over and over again.She doesn't like her name either. Not because Emily isn't a pretty name but because she would rather be called something she feels like. (She has never quite forgiven her parents for choosing her name for her.) If she could, she would call herself Glass, because that is what she wakes up feeling like every morning. As if crystallised pieces of glass are edible and her insides tingle as she swallows them whole.Emily lets the words call her names sometimes. She writes them on her knees so that she can remember them. Sometimes the words call her a whore, and sometimes stupid, and sometimes a loser and sometimes a tramp (She has never learnt that loving too much is a crime and boys with pretty eyes sometimes lie.). She sits in the bathroom with a pen the colour of blood and writes them carefully

Dear Poetry,You will find out that I am not a strong person. Dragons do not make a home beneath my skin to hoard their treasured princesses. I am not that lucky. For I have misplaced collarbones just as quickly as I've misplaced hearts, a pulse still rhythmic against my fingertips. I am a monster of words, devouring Cummings and Plath with no ounce of self control left in my body. I promised myself this weight would not fall for the sharp edges of stars ground into your knuckles. But, write air into my lungs, poetry. Give this wild thing a reason to learn the definition of tamed.Write me a poem, and I will promise to fall in love with you, slowly and then…all at once.
DesperationI wonder how many days you've spent feeling lost.Thinking that you're going somewhere.Never actually getting anywhere.You look at the same four walls over and over again.You can paint them in different colours,But you know they're still the same.And you convince yourself that you're making progress,Nothing's changed, but you're making progress.Things are getting worse, but you're making progress.And then you wake up and realise,That shit has hit the fan...Suddenly you're forced to do the things you couldn't,The kind of things that you were never comfortable with.And you find out you can do them.You find out that the only reason you couldn't,Was because you were afraid to try.It's hard - trying to take that first step.It's hard - trying to convince yourself to take that chance.But

cool trailer
I like the screenoverlays
Absolutely fantabulous, my friend! Freakin' awesome!
One of the only good looking mods the world has to offer
Epic mod, but you didn't quite nail it down. You almost completely left out kicking, the greatest melee feature ever, and you also forgot slow-mo, one of this mods greatest features. Crazy black hole/trap grenades excluded.
Those are just features, not what the mod is about.
Hmm, this was cool.
Nice video ,
Wheres the aiming reticule?
It is optional. In the video I don't use one, but you can choose from several different types: Amphibian.myzen.co.uk
i like the iron sight
This has been bothering me for a long time.. What is the name of the music in the trailer?
Noisuf-X: Tinitus (remixed by IMPLANT) Youtube.com , from the album of the same name.
Unmixed: Youtube.com
Another good Noisuf-X song: Youtube.com
I like the death ragdoll effects, waaay better than origian HL2 ones.

Someone broke into the SOWEGA Council on Aging center on Pine Avenue early Monday morning and stole food.
The thief kicked in the same window in front of the senior center that was smashed in a February break in. Employees discovered the break in
about 5 Monday morning. The crook smashed several interior doors, but stole only pennies from a collection jar and two cases of ribs.
Site One Director Angela Smith said "This is lunch for our seniors. And it's just unbelievable that somebody would take senior's food out of their mouths. Really. Virtually."
None of the Senior's programs were affected by the break-in, but directors say the senior's were upset because they consider this center their safe haven. SOWEGA Council directors say no money is kept in their centers.

Newark traffic-light cameras make some see red
Cmdr. Bob Douglas calls the program 'cost-neutral' arguing that it was never about the money
By Chris De Benedetti
NEWARK, N.J. — A picture may or may not be worth 1,000 words, but for Newark motorists caught running a red light, it's not open for debate.
That particular picture, taken at one of the city's five traffic-light cameras, is worth nearly $500 and a traffic citation.

Phosphorus is a mineral that helps build strong bones in you and your developing baby. (About 85 percent of your body's phosphorus is found in bone.)
It's also important for muscle contractions, blood clotting, kidney function, nerve conduction, the repair of tissues and cells, and normal heart rhythm. Phosphorus helps the body generate and use energy.
Pregnant women: 700 milligrams (mg) per day
Breastfeeding moms: 700 mg
Women younger than 19: 1,250 mg per day
No. While most prenatal vitamins don't contain phosphorus, you can easily get all the phosphorus you need from a well-balanced diet. One cup of yogurt provides half of your phosphorus for the day, for example.
Phosphorus must be balanced with calcium and combined with vitamin D so your body can properly absorb it, which is why dairy products are such a good source of this mineral.
Here are some good food sources of phosphorus:
Deficiencies are very rare and usually seen only in cases of starvation. Weakness, anemia, loss of appetite, and loss of bone mass are signs of a deficiency.

"I've received this stickers in four days; although, I wasn't expecting them till a week or so. But love the shipping since it was fast. I'm going to use this as part of my daughter's 1st birthday favors and the quality and the way it looks is perfect!"
"I apply these stickers on order receipts to say "thank you"--the stickers are cheerful & give the order a personal touch! Love them!"
"I am having a child-like adults-only game night for my 30th birthday, and all my decor is dots and stripes. I wanted to hand out little favor bags [like for kids' parties] with miniature liquor bottles, so I was looking for some that matched my theme. Luckily, I came across these gift tags & the proportions were perfect to make my own little booze bottles (which ended up saving me money!). Because of the large area on the tags, I was able to turn them into a little thank you cards while still including my party info on them. I am extremely pleased with the end result, and the bottles look exactly as I wanted them to."
"We ordered these custom stickers as lunch bag sealers for our sons 1st birthday. They arrived super fast, and the quality is great. We've had so many compliments, and they added the perfect personalized touch to our sons superhero party."

Beyond Valentine's Day: Having a Missional Marriage
- Wednesday, February 05, 2014
On Valentine's Day, couples typically look inward as they focus on their own romantic relationships. But the man whose life inspired the holiday – Saint Valentine – encouraged couples to look outward to how their marriages could contribute to the world.
Valentine, a priest in 3rd century Italy, believed that marriage is an important part of the God-given mission in life for people who sense God's call to get married. He saw that God used loving Christian marriages to show people the power of His love in action, and to inspire them to seek His love through their own relationships with Jesus Christ.
So passionate was Valentine's belief in missional marriages – in which spouses work together to serve God and other people – that he continued to marry people even after the Roman emperor Claudius II outlawed weddings to try to prevent his soldiers from becoming distracted from their work by giving their attention to marriage. When Claudius heard about Valentine's illegal wedding ceremonies, he sent Valentine to prison, where Valentine continued to witness to people about the power of God's love, even though he could no longer perform weddings.
Eventually, Valentine was martyred for the risks he took standing up for his convictions. The day of his death – February 14th – later became a day in the ancient church calendar to remember Valentine's faithful life. Over the years, people who were inspired by Valentine's commitment to romantic love as a gift from God with a missional purpose started celebrating romance on February 14th, calling the holiday "Valentine's Day."
Celebrating romance in your marriage on Valentine's Day is a great idea. But an even better idea is to use Valentine's Day as a time to seek God's guidance together about his mission for your marriage.
That mission goes far beyond the love between you and your spouse; it encompasses every person who knows either one of you. The daily decisions you each make about how to relate to God and each other show people a story that makes powerful statements about the meaning of faith and love.
What is your marriage showing people about placing their faith in Jesus Christ and letting his love flow through them? Are you and your spouse working together to intentionally communicate the Gospel message to others through your marriage?
In order to do so, it helps to keep in mind that marriage is meant to be an illustration of the deepest love of all: Jesus' love for the people he came to save. The marital union between a husband and a wife is "a profound mystery – but I am talking about Christ and the church," the Bible says in Ephesians 5:32.
Every Christian marriage has a mission. What better time to discover that mission for your own marriage than Valentine's Day, the holiday that honors the life of a man who did whatever it took to stand up for the importance of missional marriage?
Here are some ways you can discover and pursue God's mission for your marriage this Valentine's Day:
Pray about your mission together. Ask the Holy Spirit to help you and your spouse clearly discern God's mission for your marriage. Identify each other's core values, pray for the wisdom to see how those values align with God's purposes for your lives, and ask for guidance on how you can best work as a team to fulfill your God-given purposes in life together. Keep praying as new insights emerge, and take notes on what the Holy Spirit shows you.
Consider the Holy Spirit's work in your lives. Ask: "What are some specific ways that we could show people who know us some evidence of the Holy Spirit at work in our relationship with each other? How could we model love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control as we interact with each other?" For instance, if you and your spouse clearly enjoyed each other's company and showed it (such as by hugging, kissing, smiling, and laughing often together), your marriage would stand out from many others and attract people's attention, inspiring them to discover more about the source of your joy: the Holy Spirit's work in your lives.

flydubai Cargo Goes Paperless
16 Days ago
Posted : 2013/10/31 9:24 am
There is no doubt about it, Dubai has a certain vibe at the moment and the memories of 2008 seem something of a distant memory. Positive news is coming from every sector and with World Expo 2020 on the horizon, an honest question must be raised: How many people actually knowwhat the expo is and how will it affect residents in the region if Dubai wins?
Suggested Articles:
Why Dubai should win Expo 2020
UAE Tops Arab world in 'Ease of Doing Business'
Emiratis scale Mount Kilimanjaro in support for Expo 2020
The World Expo is effectively the largest mix of trade exhibitions or world fairs and is not by any means a new concept, with the first World Expo in London in 1851. Indeed, previous expos have yielded legacies, such as the Eiffel Tower, the telephone, ice cream and Heinz Tomato Ketchup.
So, why all this excitement? Well, trying to grasp the enormity of not only what the expo will do for the region, but the legacy it will leave has to do with the numbers and sheer magnitude of the event.
The last expo was held in Shanghai, China. It was reported that there were more than 73 million visitors from 250 countries and the site measured a massive 5.28 square kilometres, setting a single-day record of more than 1.03 million visitors. These, by any standards, are hugely impressive, indicating how important it is for the local economy – especially when you consider the reported $157 million in profits gained during the World Expo 2010 alone.
Should Dubai receive the winning vote among its competitors, Russia, Brazil and Turkey, on November 27, the region will see an influx of more than 25 million visitors.
The knock-on effect of a successful bid is a predicted 277,000 jobs and a huge boost to not only in the ensuing job market, but also to the infrastructure sector in Dubai. With DWC's ambitious plans to overtake airports, such as London Heathrow, in the coming years and its central location in the Middle East region, it is easy to see why this is the perfect platform and opportunity in which to raise the bar.
It would also signify good news for the many hotel chains across the region looking to show off exactly what Dubai is capable of and attract long-term clientele. This will also provide the ideal opportunity to vastly expand the range of hotels and resorts, which will bring increased employment and revenues not only during the months of the expo, but as a legacy. From a property perspective, where there is a general feeling that the growth seen in the past 12 months is perhaps unsustainable, it will increase confidence and encourage further transactions, helping both developers and investors in the region.
For SMEs across Dubai and Abu Dhabi, there will be a surge of consumer spending, as visitors, tourists and investors flock to the region and bolster the local economy, and will enhance wealth for business owners. As a result, if we see the confirmation of the expo, it is likely that we will also see an increase in the number of new businesses and entrepreneurs looking to benefit from the influx.
If managed correctly, there is a more solid prospective for the region moving forward. Additionally, it will create further opportunities to purchase and will expand the ever-growing city inland, towards the proposed centre for the expo on the Jebel Ali border.
There are many reasons to be excited about the possibility of Dubai hosting the World Expo 2020 and if there is one thing that the city is known all over the world over for, it is putting on a great event. I have no doubt that if the expo ran successfully, it would be remembered for the right reasons, portraying its own legacy.

My Platform
My Campaign Platform
As editor of www.crevecoeurvoter.com since 2007, I have worked to improve the interface between the Council and the residents of Creve Coeur. I have participated in many deliberations of the Council as a citizen spokesman. I have documented positions on many issues coming before the Council on the public record and through editorial comment. Following is a summary of positions on current and potential issues:
- The residential character of Ladue Road should be affirmed and protected.
- A new zoning ordinance for the east Olive corridor should be developed which encourages development and provides greater protections for adjoining residential properties than the gradual conversion to General Commercial which is occurring.
- A "downtown" plan should be adopted which is flexible enough to attract development but not so intense as to create additional traffic problems.
- Standards for medians, sidewalks, lighting, and landscaping on Olive should be developed and implemented. Any widening of Olive should be for turn lanes, bus stops, and other congestion reducing improvements- not for through traffic lanes.
- Building codes should include reasonable, common-sense regulations to improve the integration of teardown-rebuild projects into the neighborhood and minimize stormwater problems.
- Neither new construction nor home improvement projects should be required to install expensive rain gardens; the city should encourage and support (subsidize) the use of rain barrels.
- No changes should be made to the Comprehensive (Land Use) Plan without full vetting by residents, particularly those in affected areas.
- The property tax should be eliminated.
- In the event revenues continue to exceed expenditures, sales taxes or utility taxes should be reduced
- In the unlikely event that future revenues and cost reduction efforts fall short of a balanced budget, the range of options considered for submission to the voters should include reinstating the property tax, a parks tax, and a hotel tax. Generation of tax revenue should never be used as a rationale for approving retail projects.
- The city surplus (reserves) should be reduced by debt reduction (retiring the MillenniumPark bonds) and by reducing the unfunded pension liability.
- No Transportation Development Districts (TDD's) should be approved without meeting higher standards (shorter term, lower tax rate, etc.) than those allowed by state law. TDD's should provide guarantees of financing before approval. A provision for denial by voter petition should also be considered
- Project accounting practices, including "after-action" reporting should be adopted to increase accountability and transparency.
- Full-service (valet) trash pick-up should be continued city-wide. Leaf and limb services should not be reduced.
- The golf course and ice rink should be maintained, but the subsidy should not exceed an amount commensurate with resident discounts provided.
- The city should not pursue building a recreation center
- FountainPark should be restored or sold.
- The landscaping of the I-270 overpass should be transitioned to native species which require much less maintenance cost, with the savings earmarked for park maintenance.
- The red-light camera program should be discontinued. The use of recurrent radar enforcement should be reevaluated.
- The deer mitigation program should be amended to require unanimous concurrence of all property owners within 300 feet of the sponsoring property.
- The city should not adopt a single family home inspection program.
- A community foundation should be established for the purpose of fund-raising for public art, historic preservation, and other cultural projects.

Mobilink Hails Decision on SMS Tax Withdrawal
By admin | 23, Jun 2009 | 4 Comments
Mobilink has hailed the government's decision to withdraw the proposed 20 paisa Federal Excise Duty on SMS. The Company has also appreciated the support and foresight of the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) to create a taxation environment that is beneficial to the consumers and the progress and development of the telecom sector in the long run.
Commenting on the suspension of the proposed tax, Omar Manzur, Director Public Relations, Mobilink shared, "The telecom industry of Pakistan has shown tremendous growth during the past decade and has been able to channel enormous foreign investments into the country.
With a more relaxed tax regime, the mobile phone operators will be able to continue contributing to the economic well-being of the country. At the same time, Mobilink users, the country's largest SMS family, can continue to enjoy SMS on the Mobilink network at existing rates."
Manzur acknowledged the stand taken by the respective authorities for withdrawal of the proposed tax in the budgetary debate. "PTA and Ministry of IT and Telecom have demonstrated financial acumen, vision and progressive foresight as they continue to play a very significant role in providing a level playing filed for all Players in the industry," he added.

When Volkswagen of America selected us to build a Beetle for the 2012 SEMA Show we had no idea the massive task we'd undertaken.
By now you're familiar with our surf-themed SoCal Beetle we built for the occasion after it was featured in EC 4/13 issue. As good as it looked, it also needed to perform because we didn't want to build a Beetle with all show and no go. We were looking for high performance without any concessions, so we teamed up with our friends at Revo Technik.
Not long ago the prospect of a 400hp VW on pump gas was just a notion rather than a reality. Eclipsing even 300hp would have required massive boost, race gas, a built motor and would have been an uncivilized beast. But a great deal has changed in recent watercooled history, with both VW and aftermarket tuners producing reliable and powerful engines.
Little did VW know what it started when creating the 1.8T motor back in 1996, laying the groundwork for the later 2.0T FSI and current TSI.
Blessed with direct injection, a stout bottom-end, high-flowing 16v head and backed by sophisticated electronics, the 2.0T is as mighty as it is tunable. Although it displaces a mere two-liters, a handful of key mods will see it to 350 or even 400hp and beyond.
As we mentioned earlier, we wanted power without any compromise, so wouldn't accept power spikes, surges, a lumpy idle or or unreliability.
It had to be the proverbial velvet hammer and thankfully Revo Technik unearthed some solutions to answer our questions.
Our first requirement was serious power and Revo's big-turbo kit blessed us with 375hp. Since our car would be center stage, we opted for a few more pounds of boost and high-octane fuel to reach 400hp for SEMA, but have since turned it back to the production 375hp for daily driving duties.
You might imagine it would take extraordinary measures but the affordable kit retails for just $2495 and improved our dyno figures by 157hp at 6100rpm and 164 lb-ft at 4300rpm without expensive modifications to the fuel system. The Revo K04 kit comes with everything needed to make big power without needing a new fuel pump, lines or rails.
The heart of the kit is a K04 turbo without its internal baffle for improved throttle response. Revo goes one step further and machines the compressor housing to accept VW's internal diverter valve, so it works like a factory K04. It also bolts directly to the stock downpipe and is supplied with Revo's renowned software to ensure smooth power delivery.
While the big-turbo kit would have been sufficient, we were going big so also specified the Revo SPS module that would allow us to switch between different boost and fuel maps.
Mechanically, there's Revo's cold-air intake to help the K04 ingest more air, which is chilled by a Eurojet front-mount intercooler to improve flow and avoid heat-soak.
The stout FMIC is a bolt-on part constructed from T5052 and T6061 aluminum with TIG-welded cast end-tanks. The core measures a colossal 23.5x2x16.5" and uses a bar and plate core design with a proprietary internal louver and fin setup to promote efficient chamber balance.
From the driver's seat, cooler and more consistent inlet charge temps means more power. In fact, Eurojet claims the charge remains within 2-6°F of ambient temperature, making it a worthwhile addition.
With so much work on the inlet, it was predictable that we'd de-restrict the outlet with a free-flowing Revo turbo-back exhaust. Designed for the Mk6 GTI, the 3" mandrel-bent system is built from brushed T304 stainless steel with a 0.065" wall thickness and uses modular V-band joints.
The thick wall construction avoids exhaust drone by retaining the sound inside the pipe, and is durable enough to merit a lifetime warranty. Furthermore, the V-band clamps feature self-aligning male and female ends for precise alignment and fit. This makes swapping out the cat-equipped mid-pipe for a race pipe a simple 10min operation.
Larger K04 turbo significantly increases power and torque without expensive fuel system upgrades but with OEM drivability.
Revo SPS device allows user to switch between software maps. Ours has stock, "chipped" and race-gas maps installed
Revo cold-air intake increases power by allowing better airflow. It also sounds pretty good
Revo's stainless steel 3" turbo-back exhaust boasts V-band clamps, thick-wall pipe and high-flow to increase power and produce a great note.

moreThe first textbook on mathematical methods focusing on techniques for optical science and engineering, this text is ideal for upper division undergraduate and graduate students in optical physics. Containing detailed sections on the basic theory, the textbook places strong emphasis on connecting the abstract mathematical concepts to the optical systems to which they are applied. It covers many topics which usually only appear in more specialized books, such as Zernike polynomials, wavelet and fractional Fourier transforms, vector spherical harmonics, the z-transform, and the angular spectrum representation. Most chapters end by showing how the techniques covered can be used to solve an optical problem. Essay problems based on research publications and numerous exercises help to further strengthen the connection between the theory and its applications. less

The best thing about this bag: You can subtly keep that "cinch-with-a-belt" trend going with your style, even as the trend will start phasing out. Spring 2008 lines showed a lot of skinny belts... And then the Fall 2008 stuff showed a lot less belts, if hardly any. This cute bag indulges in the trend that we've all probably been rocking forever and is a nice transition from belts to no belts. Love it, and will totally buy it, don't care if everyone else has it! :)

3 thoughts on "How To Let Go Of Your Ex"
