Myers, Edward
Children's Fiction MYERS
Summary: "Once upon a time," begins the narrator of this richly imagined novel. But what follows is no ordinary fantasy full of dragons, elves, and wicked stepmothers. Yes, the tale involves a boy named Jack. But he's not the one who climbed a beanstalk or slew seven giants with one blow. This Jack is a storyteller, a seventeen-year-old farm boy who sets off to seek his fortune in the royal city of Sundar. Jack has many adventures and narrow escapes on his journey. He also meets an assortment of memorable characters--including a talking bird, a one-eyed robber, a mysterious illusionist, and a melancholy princess. Each has a tale to tell, and these accounts, along with Jack's own stories and the framing narrative, are woven into a complex, dazzling tapestry that will capture the reader's imagination. Through them, Edward Myers explores the power--for good and for evil--of the stories we all tell.

The Dallas Cowboys re-signed center Phil Costa to a two-year contract extension in a cap friendly move on Saturday.
Phil Costa was set to become a restricted free agent by the March deadline, and the Dallas Cowboys would have been required to offer a $1.323 million tender in 2013 to secure him. But with the new contract worth $2.7 million, including a $450,000 signing bonus, Phil Costa will only count $975,000 against the cap. Hence the Dallas Cowboys save roughly $350,000 of salary cap space by setting up the new contract.
Since signing as an undrafted free agent out of Maryland with the Dallas Cowboys, Phil Costa gradually moved up the depth chart, starting at center for the entire 2011 season. However, Phil Costa only started three games in 2013 during a season marred by back and ankle injuries. Phil Costa missed most of training camp with back issues and re-aggravated that injury in the season opener against the New York Giants. The three-year veteran Phil Costa returned in Week 6 against the Baltimore Ravens, helping the Dallas Cowboys rack-up 227 rushing yards (the most the Ravens have ever allowed on the ground).The Dallas Cowboys offensive unit has been in better form when Phil Costa joins them on the field. But the Dallas Cowboys again lost Phil Costa to a dislocated ankle in the Week 7 win over the Carolina Panthers. After undergoing mid-season ankle surgery, Phil Costa spent the rest on 2012 on the injured-reserve.
The 25-year-old Phil Costa should be able to take part in most of the offseason workouts, and is expected to return to the starting lineup in 2013. During Phil Costa's absence Ryan Cook and Mackenzy Bernadeau started 11 and two games respectively last season at center for the Dallas Cowboys.
Phil Costa is the second player the Dallas Cowboys re-signed this week, following long snapper L.P. Ladouceur's cap-friendly contract on Thursday. The Dallas Cowboys also previously restructured contracts of several veteran players, including DeMarcus Ware, receiver Miles Austin, tight end Jason Witten, cornerback Brandon Carr and Ryan Cook to clear over $20 million in cap space for their 2013 salary cap. Cornerback Orlando Scandrick, defensive tackle Jay Ratliff, as well as guards Nate Livings and Mackenzy Bernadeau could face future restructured contracts in the Dallas Cowboys' attempt to get under the 2013 salary cap estimated over $123 million.

They do things differently and think differently too. Successful people have a goal in mind and will work smartly do achieve it.We've identified key habits that set successful people apart from the rest. Here are a few key characteristics they possess.They have one plan and stick to it If you have one plan you'll work harder to achieve the goals you set out; a back-up plan creates a backdoor for you to escape through just in case you don't succeed with your initial plan. Having a plan or a goal and sticking to it will naturally make you work harder and smarter to achieve it. The plan will require your full attention and commitment because you know that if it fails, that's all there is. Moral of the story? Pick a plan and stick to it.Successful people aren't afraid of work Average workers are average because they have average skills. If you want to be excellent you have to put in the effort to be excellent. The only way you can achieve this is to put in the hours needed. Are you prepared to work the hours that no one else is for the sake of mastering your art? You can be good with a little effort. You can be really good with a little more effort.

Successful people work much harder and (happily) much longer than the average worker. These people have their own to-do list that they want to get done before the next day so they work until they do and not until the clock strikes five. If you don't want to take on a big workload, don't count on being highly successful – it obviously isn't as important as you thought it is.They follow their own path Very successful people don't follow an idea that's trending at the moment, they work hard to find a gap in the market and go where the crowds haven't been yet because they know there's very little competition on the road less travelled.They start where others don't Of course all people have a goal, that isn't special, but the way in which each person starts is. Work from the back and decide what you'd like to ultimately be. Decide what you'd like to achieve at the end of it; do you want to be the fastest employee or have the largest variety of goods in your store? Remember, the bigger you dream, the harder you'll work to make it a success and the better your chances are of becoming a success.The first step to the road of success is finding a job that makes you happy.

About my libraryMost of the books on my online list are only those works in my 1,700+ title collection that I've actually read cover-to-cover or listened to in their entirety in audio form (versus works that I use for reference.) I spend lots of time on the road, so at least half of the books on my list are CDs (many of them from the local library). I try not to get stuck in genre "ruts," although I tend to favor contemporary fiction, classics, historical fiction, journalism/mass media and business-related books. I do not review any of the regional books that my publishing company is responsible for distributing. But I do post many of the books on my LibraryThing site.

"We belong to Mother Earth"
(An historic address given by
Chief Seattle)
Teach your children what we have taught our children:
that the earth is our true mother.
Whatever happens to the earth, happens to the children of the earth.
If people spit on the ground, they spit on themselves.
We know:
the earth does not belong to people, but people belong to the earth.
We know:
everything is joined together in some way, like the blood that runs through a family.
Whatever happens to the earth, happens to the children of the earth.
We did not weave the web of life; we are just a strand in it.
Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves.

If anyone understands what it's like to be gunned down in the midst of a normal day, it's former representative Gabrielle Giffords from Arizona. She is planning a trip to Newtown on Friday to meet privately with families of the Sandy Hook massacre victims. And while the crazy gun nuts who defend guns against all logic will call this move "political," anyone with a bit of compassion has to realize this is about love. Not politics.
Giffords was shot in 2011 when a crazed gunman opened fire at a political rally, killing six people and wounding more than a dozen others, including Representative Giffords. Since then, Giffords has become a fierce advocate of better gun control. But it's more than that, too.
The shootings in Newtown, Connecticut have touched us all. The faces of every one of those 26 innocent victims are burned into our brains and we grieve as a nation. But no one knows what it's like better than Giffords.
Since Giffords was shot nearly two years ago, there have been a number of shootings, most notably the one in the Aurora, Colorado movie theater that killed 12 people and then Newtown where 20 school children and six of their educators were gunned down in a place of education.
We live in a sick, sick environment where this is almost "normal." And the fact is, the victim list is growing. It is, unfortunately, the kind of thing one simply cannot understand unless they have been through it.
To survive something like this is unimaginable. The guilt must be overwhelming. One must ask themselves: why am I alive while so many others are dead?
For Giffords, I am sure meeting with the families is something she must do from a loving place. Anyone who accuses her of "furthering her agenda" or using Newtown to push a gun control agenda (like these crazy people) is almost surely insane. How could anyone lack the basic human compassion it takes to realize this is part of Giffords' own emotional healing?
For her, gun control isn't a political issue. It isn't about 20 men shaking in their boots that someone might regulate their toy. It isn't lashing out for political gain.
This is deeply personal. Giffords was shot in the head. By a gun. Anyone who can't understand why she would need to go to Newtown has obviously never been through anything like that.
No one can understand what it's like except people who have been there. Unless you have been shot while trying to go about your business on a beautiful day, then you have no business judging anyone who has and the way they respond to that trauma.
My heart goes out to Giffords and I am grateful she survived so that she can help so many others heal.
Do you think this visit is "political"?

You know I would be kinda upset, if my kid died in this massacre, and the media and politicians used my kids death to further their anti-constitution agenda. I am not saying that this is what Giffords is doing, but how much gun control would of stopped any of these shootings??? And its not just 20 men worried about their toys being taken away. NIce way to reduce it to that.
While I doubt you can take politics away from her visit since she is in politics and its attached to everything she does I think its more to show them that in a few years they will be in a better place with all that has happened, come to terms with it and continue to move forwardw hile never forgetting. I think it would help to speak to someone who has actually been there before
So the writer says not judge unless you've been through something like that but in the same breath judges those advocating to keep their guns, calling them crazy. Yes because insulting people who don't share your beliefs is acceptable. Wait, no it's not.
In all honesty, I don't care why or that Gifford is going. It's her business where she goes. My problem is for all the screaming that it isn't political the media is sure making sure we know a politician is making the visit.
You are very naive if you think for one second this is not, at least in part, a political move.
You have GOT to be kidding me. You link to a site called "Storm Front", where their tag line is "White Pride Worldwide", and then expect us to take you seriously???
Enough, Sasha. YOU are as bad as all of those "gun nuts" you despise so deeply. You refuse to admit any logic into this debate. "Just get rid of the guns" is your mantra. But when asked HOW, you have no answer. Do you really think that if we "got rid of all the guns" that would really solve the problem?
Ms. Giffords wasn't "shot in the head by a gun", she was shot in the head by a CRAZED MADMAN who used a gun. BIG DIFFERENCE. That madman could have done the same amount of damage using a car, plowing it into a crowd of innocent people, but I don't see you calling all drivers "car nuts".
As for Ms. Giffords visiting this school? Yes, it's personal for her. But it's also political. If it wasn't, there would be no press releases, no photo ops, no word at all that she is doing this. It would be done quietly, and only the families would be involved.
And shame on YOU for using this school, these children, to further YOUR political agenda, and at the same time, condemn those who believe in the Constitutional Right to defend ourselves.
I am so glad she is doing ok
Hasn't Newtown suffered enough? Publicity-hound Giffords & her baldy husband are always looking for face-time.

The off season can be just as stressful for teams as the regular season when it comes to player safety. With every snap of the ball, of course there's always the risk that an injury can happen. What about injuries that happen during the off season though?
Broncos wide receiver Demaryius Thomas tore his Achilles in February 2011 during an off season workout. Luckily, he made a speedy recovery and joined the team for the start of the season. In 2010, left tackle Ryan Clady had surgery to repair a partially torn patellar tendon, which he suffered during a pick-up basketball game.
Injuries that happen to key players are troubling during the season, but they're downright frustrating during the off season. It's surprising then that the Seahawks didn't put the brakes on left tackle Russell Okung's plan to run with the bulls in Spain.
That brings up a relevant point for the Broncos. Colorado is filled with opportunities for potentially risky off season behavior. How about snowboarding in March without a helmet? I've seen one unnamed Broncos player do it at Keystone. How about climbing a class three "fourteener" in the summer months? While it's a great way to keep fit, one slip or twist of the knee/ankle can be a recipe for disaster.
All NFL players have contracts spelling the terms for partaking in risky endeavors, but as fans, what do you think of these players engaging in these behaviors? Where should teams draw the line for players?

Peasants, do not question your lot in this life, it is the will of your noble masters, and our divine King, chosen by God, and we are but mere mortals and humble subject to and infinite mystery and perfection.

One of the ironies in the petition drive is that consumer demand is what's needed to pull the nation out of the doldrums — whether that demand comes at midnight or 8 a.m.So make it 8 am.
When I worked commissioned retail sales, I dug Black Friday. Now it's just another (really fucking busy) day in retail. The non-stop hyping and the middle of the night openings aren't any fun for the employees, either, and that Kohl's ad with the singing woman in line yt pisses me off to no end.Oh god I saw that on TV at someone's house. I hope the Ark Music Factory guys got some nice change out of that. This related video is pretty funny though. Apparently Kohls supports pushing old ladies and 'Worser music'
Gregg Steinhafel, Target's CEO, was at the Bloomington Target store and said he was feeling "pretty good" with the customer turnout. More than 1,500 people were lined up in front of the store for its 12 a.m. opening, up 300 people from last year.posted by ZeusHumms at 6:54 AM on November 25, 2011 [1 favorite]
"It seemed like people were out in overwhelming numbers," Steinhafel said. "Numbers I have not seen in a long time.
Does that mean Target will have a midnight opening next year?
"We will reassess at the end of the year," Steinhafel said. "We're not making any committments for next year right now."
Steinhafel was visiting the Bloomington Target store, as well as other locations with his family. He said he plans to also visit stores that compete with Target.
For many of these places, that would be like a self inflicted DOS attack.
So apparently they already are doing some of that and it is working as a self-inflicted DOS attack.

Have you made this pattern?
Share with the Craftsy community.
This is a cute little doll that makes a great little companion! or just hanging around, watching you work! She is just the right size to make into a brooch, or a whole string of them! The pattern makes one doll. I have found they are really happy in groups, one is lonely, two are company but three or more can party!!
I just love making things! I started when I was really young and no-one has ever found out how to stop me! Sewing has always been part of my life, and for the last many years quilting has taken over, ......because quilting is delicious!

I can feel it coming
The end of your story is near.
But please let me tell you,
How much I care
For all the moments you protected and loved me,
I'll never forget how you took away my fear.
The most wonderful companion
Who dried every tear.
It saddens me to see you go
But you will always be remembered, this I swear.
As I lay beside you thinking of the memories
Of me walking and feeding you, a perfect pair.
It never was owner and dog, just friends
Who loved and played so no one could compare.
I wish I didn't have to see you weaken and go,
For I know I'm losing someone dear.
And can't stand the thought of an empty home and an empty heart.
But I will always love you even in this despair.
Please go on strong and someday we will be,
The best human and dog pair.

[edit] Eye of the North
Before completion of The Missing Vanguard, if you enter the Hall of Monuments while holding this item, Gwen says "I can't believe you held onto that for so long. But with the Ebon Vanguard missing, my own past must be put aside for now. We'll have time for this matter after my friends are rescued."
After completion of The Missing Vanguard, if you speak to Gwen with a flower in your inventory she will give you the quest Fire and Pain.
Oggy wants a single Iris to aid his courtship of Jezza.

You're all I've got5 Reviews
when good things go terribly wrong
I'm not a saint
I'm just a man
As Kayli drove home, she was distracted by the ring fracturing light off of her finger, she smiled at the thought of it but the more she drove and the more she thought, the more she realized that she couldn't do this. She couldn't live like this, she couldn't marry in so much secrecy, she just couldn't.
Kayli had never been good with relationships. She always seemed to find the biggest losers. She had gotten herself into one too many abusive relationships and then just stopped dating all together. All through out college she never did the things the other girls were doing. She kept to herself and did her work, rarely partying and never dating. She concentrated on herself and while it ultimately left her lonely, she rather that then feel the pain relationships brought.
It wasn't until after graduation that she tried dating again. She dated a guy from a distance, thinking it was safer to be away from him more than she was with him. She joined her first tour and let this man up to his own defenses, trusting him with all she had, but he only ended up hurting her, cheating when she couldn't see. That left Kayli only with desperation, which was when she met Pete. The night he heard her yelling at this guy was the night she decided she couldn't take much more. What had led her to sleeping with Pete was a strange mixture of the desperation and her own need for someone else's touch. She wanted someone to tell her she was special and important. The strange thing was that Pete seemed to tell her volumes just the way he looked at her. After they had slept together, he wouldn't stop staring at her, sneaking glances her way when she was reaching as her shirt rode up, watching her every move and when he stopped looking, she began feeling tense. The desire she had for anyone to tell her she was beautiful was fulfilled with those looks and the craving only mounted when he stopped.
Noticing she was sobbing now, she pulled over and parked her car. She didn't want it to be like this. She had finally found the love she always knew she deserved having and she could tell no one. Her friends were sure by now that she was going to be alone for the rest of her life and she wanted nothing more than to run home and shove her ring in their faces and yell "Ha! I'm engaged!" but she couldn't. She couldn't even tell her parents that she finally on her way to giving them grandkids. Then the thought occurred to her: there was no way Pete was happy either...
Kayli got home and showered, her mind never leaving Pete. She wished they were showering together right now, so when they were down they could lay naked in his bed and make love again. She wished he didn't have so many friends so they could be alone for a while. She wished he wasn't who he was so they could just be.
The next day, Kayli pulled up to her parent's house, smiling as her mom charged at her in the driveway.
"Kayli! I've missed you honey! How's the road? Meet any boys?" Kayli laughed slightly, wanting nothing more than to scream "I'm engaged!" but just shook her head.
"The road is fine and no, I don't really like to mix business with pleasure," she said, grabbing her bag out of the backseat. Her mom sighed.
"Well, come in! Dinner is all ready..."
"Kayli, remember that boy Roger you went to prom with?" Her mom brought up ever so casually while they were washing dishes. Kayli grabbed the plate and dried it, sighing.
"Yes, what about him?" Kayli knew exactly what about him, and honestly she didn't want to hear her mother's desperation for her to date someone, but let it slide to keep her own secret.
"He just moved back to town...you should see him. So handsome and he just graduated from Yale Law at the top of his class. He's being offered jobs left and right. He's a real catch, K," her mother finished. Kayli shuddered slightly. She thought about Pete, the tattoos that covered almost every inch of his arms, his jeans, his hoodies, and his Converses. Then she thought about what Roger must look like. Tan skin, khakis, oxfords and Reeboks. She shuddered again.
"Mom, I'm not sure he's..." she began. Her mother put her hand up.
"He's really looking forward to seeing you again. I told him you've only gotten more beautiful since high school, baby." Kayli sat the damp rag down and stared at her mother. Was she serious?
"Mom, I can't go on a date with this guy. Why did you do this?"
"Why not? Is there a boyfriend you're not telling me about?" Kayli felt her face flush; she hated lying to her mom. She thought about the diamond ring sitting in her glove box in her car and shook her head.
"No. I just...I'm not interested, okay? I really appreciate your help mom, I'm just not interested." Her mother drained the water from the sink and looked at her curiously.
"At least meet him again. You don't have to go on a date. I'm just sad that you are twenty four and still haven't been in one serious relationship. It's such a waste, you're so beautiful, honey." Kayli nodded and felt her stomach flip as her mom disappeared into the living room...
Kayli glanced at the clock still sitting in her bedroom from high school, and rubbed her eyes. Her brain wouldn't shut off and she couldn't sleep. She wanted to call Pete so bad just to hear his voice, but she didn't know who he was with and couldn't risk it. She grabbed her laptop off of the floor, deciding to check her mail and Live Journal. She subscribed to some Fall Out Boy communities merely because some of the stuff made her laugh and she would always tell them about what she found. Today, however, was different. She wasn't laughing.
There, on her screen, was her fiancé, holding hands with a blond that certainly wasn't Kayli, but rather...Ashlee.
"What the fuck...?" Kayli began; she clicked on the link to see a small story about Pete and Ashlee going grocery shopping together and being seen at some of the hottest nightclubs in LA. "No, no, no!" Kayli hissed to herself quietly. Without regards to the consequences, she picked up her cell phone and pressed her first speed dial.
"Now isn't a good time," Pete said. Kayli huffed.
"Now is a great time. Care to explain these pictures I'm seeing?" she said. Pete sighed.
"Baby, I swear, it isn't what it looks like. I'll explain it to you later. Now isn't good. I love you," and was followed by a dead line.
"It isn't what it looks like? What the fuck?" She said, tossing her cell phone to the comforter. Annoyed and offended, Kayli shut her computer down, not wanting to see those images any longer. She felt like crying, but couldn't, she was praying it really, honestly wasn't what it looked like. But what was Pete doing and who was he with at three am that it wasn't a good time....?
Two days later Kayli was back at her place and avoiding Pete's phone calls, desperate texts and voicemails. She wanted him to look her in the eyes and tell her that she was seeing things, that he wasn't lying. For the first time since they began their relationship, she really felt like she couldn't trust him. She was always overhearing people on the crew talking about girls he was with, but she blew them off, he was allowed to have friends. Holding hands with some grade C pop star, however, was different; this was looking her right in the face.
After about five texts that said it was safe to come over and that he wanted to talk, Kayli slammed her car door shut and walked into his house, Hemmingway slid to a stop at her feet, wagging his tail over excitedly and slobbering on her arm. She pet him for a minute before making her way down the steps and taking a left into his office, closely followed by the dog. Pete's music was so loud it was no wonder he didn't hear her come in.
"Peter!" she yelled. He jumped and reached forward turning his music down.
"Shit, you scared me. Don't do that," he said, standing. Kayli crossed her arms defensively, she wasn't happy with him at the moment. "You've been avoiding me."
"I wanted to hear this story in person. I can't wait," she said, her sarcasm thick.
"It wasn't my choice. You know that you are my only. You're my fiancé and I'm just as mad as you are about it," he said. Kayli cocked her head.
"Explain." Hemmingway plopped down and watched Pete as he stepped closer to her.
"My publicist thought it would be a good idea for me to be seen around town, and the only way to get the most attention possible, is to have someone more famous than me at my side." Kayli shook her head.
"You expect me to believe that Ashlee Simpson is a fucking career move?! Pete, where am I in all of this? What happens when someone finds out about us and then we both look stupid? I knew this was going to happen, shit." Pete just stared at Kayli, he saw the hurt in her eyes and it only made everything worse.
"I feel so bad about this, you have no idea. I don't want to hurt you but I don't have much choice!"
"Don't have a choice? Pete, you can tell them no!" Hemmingway was startled out of his nap by Kayli's yelling, causing him to sit up straight, looking at her in wonder.
"No, I can't, K! Why do you think I have a publicist? I can't just say no!"
"Do you like her?"
"It's just business"
"Answer the question!" Kayli then thought back to all the allegations of Pete and Ashlee as a couple as far back as last September, it was now August. She couldn't believe she had been so stupid.
"She's a friends and really nice girl, but she isn't you. No one can take your place in my life!"
"Does she know about me?"
"No! Of course not." Kayli sighed and closed her eyes.
"You should tell her." Pete's eyes widened at her statement.
"Tell her. Tell her you're engaged! Tell her about me!" Kayli yelled, the despair in her voice coming out clear and strong.
"I can't do that."
"Then forget it. You can take your ring and all your promises back! Shit, Pete! You fucking promised you wouldn't hurt me like all the others."
"I'm not! I can't do anything about it, baby. Please stop over reacting." Kayli felt like Pete just punched her in the stomach, she stared at him like a deer in headlights.
"Overreact? You want to marry me, but you are dating someone else! How could I possibly be overreacting right now?!"
"Giving back my ring, call off our wedding? That's overreacting!" Kayli glared at him, she couldn't believe he thought this was all acceptable. She walked up to him, pulling the diamond ring from her finger as the dog scampered away from under her feet to the door that led to the backyard.
"It's off, Pete. I'm not dealing with this. You promised me." Pete crossed his arms and looked at Kayli.
"I'm not giving up on us. You just need to understand that this is all just business. It has no reflection on us."
"You are making me look like a fool; it definitely has a reflection on us. I want you to be happy, and having me obviously isn't doing that because you feel it's okay to be seeing someone else."
"Kayli, no. Right now, you are basically the only person I feel like I can depend on, don't leave me. The only thing I'm not happy about with us is our secrecy, but we know doing this is for the best. You'll see in the end, when we finally do get married and settle down, that all of this was worth it. I love you and only you, please don't take that away from me."
Kayli hated Pete's eyes. She hated them because they never lied. When he was mad, you could tell by his eyes. When he was sorry, his reinforced that feeling and when his heart was breaking his eyes made it 100% clear. Kayli closed her eyes; she didn't want to give in this soon. She just didn't trust him. Even though she could tell this was killing him, something in her gut was letting her know she wasn't being allowed to see all sides of this situation. Hemmingway barked suddenly, scratching the door to the yard. Pete peered over Kayli's shoulder at the dog before looking in her eyes. Kayli sighed and put the ring in her pocket.
"I'll see you in Germany," she said, turning her back on him and leaving out the back door, shutting the door in Hemmingway's face...

The HDRoom are reporting that Breaking Dawn Part 1 footage will be shown at Comic-Com which takes place in July.
This year's Comic-Con in particular is poised to be perhaps the biggest yet. In a battle of screaming female tweens versus comic book faithful, Summit Entertainment will present new footage and the stars of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1
They've just announced that the Four Day Passes have sold out within 3 hours! However one day passes go on sale as of Saturday (Feb 5th) night.
Comic-Con 2011 four-day passes were hard enough to come by based on interest, much less technical difficulties.
Passes for the annual gathering of film, comic book, toy and gaming enthusiasts went on sale earlier today and was met by a stampede of buyers with credit cards in-hand. The ticketing vendor for the process, Ticketleap.com, buckled multiple times under the strain of fulfilling requests.
Interest in the four-day passes was so intense that even with the outages all were sold through in roughly two-and-a-half hours. Many people who were hoping to make the trek to San Diego and hit up the convention center for Thursday through Sunday had to walk away empty-handed.
I've just checked out the Official Comic-Con site and the day passes are also now sold out. If you were lucky enough to get a ticket, congrats! You'll have a blast!

What you pack depends very much on the type of holiday you are going on, if you are going on a family holiday for a two weeks to somewhere warm all you may need is a few short and tops. If you are going on a clubbing holiday on the beach all you may need are bikini and dresses where as if you are going on a holiday for 6 weeks like I am it all gets a little more complicated.
I am going on holiday to Portugal where a lot of my family live meaning I need beach clothes but also clothes appropriate for weddings and parties. The fact that I am on holiday for 6 weeks also makes it much harder as I am tempted to take a lot more clothes but am still restricted to the weight limit.
1.Check luggage allowance
Check online a few weeks in advance what your luggage allowance for both your hand luggage and check-in luggage, take advantage of both allowances. I personally like to take a small suit case with wheels as my hand luggage; this means I don't have to lug it about at the airport. Make sure that your suitcase also doesn't weigh too much, if your suit case weighs 5kg that is already a 1/3 of your allowance taken up!
2. Chose your clothes carefully
Are you really going to wear that short orange dress? Even if it will good with a tan if you were uncomfortable wearing it at home why would you be comfortable wearing it abroad? Plan carefully what you will wear, you don't have to plan it down to the last detail but if nothing in your suitcase goes with that skirt why take it? Always take a jacket as you never know if it will get cold or rain. I personally also like to wear some of my heavier clothes such as my jeans, converses and a jacket on the plane so it doesn't weigh down my luggage.
I won't pretend to be good at packing because I am not but I have heard that rolling your clothes reduces creases and also makes more space (I'll try it this year.) Place heavier items such as shoes over the wheels or the suitcase. Also, don't leave your luggage too full or too empty this will make
them far more likely to crease.
4. Shoes
Shoes are one of the heaviest things in my luggage so be selective. One pair of nice flip flops in a neutral colour will be good enough and you do not need 15 pairs of flip flops. Take a nice pair of sandals which can be dressed up and down as well as a nice pair of heels for night time and parties. I also like to take a pair of flat, closed shoes as it can get cold during the night.
5. Toiletries
Depending on how long you are going I would recommend either buying full size products out on holiday or taking mini's with you. Most brands to great travel size products and I also like to save some of the more generous samples I get to take on holiday. Its also easy to share shampoo and other toiletries with other people you are traveling with. Also remember that there are liquid restrictions and therefore you may not want to carry all your toiletries in your hand luggage.
Quick Tips
Carry all your valuables in your hand luggage as it is less likely to get lost, but if you can avoid taking valuables on holiday.
Always lock your suitcase! Unlocked suitcases can invalidate travel insurance claims
Hope this helped, I will be doing a few more holiday related posts soon.
What holidays do you have planned? What are your tips for packing?

Former Office of Management and Budget (OMB) director Peter Orszag and NYU Law School Professor Barry Friedman discuss the future of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), how it will impact the country's health-care system, and why the Supreme Court ruled as it did.
While serving as OMB director last year, Dr. Orszag, now at Citigroup, argued in Foreign Affairs magazine that the ACA would repair the nation's health-care system and improve the country's fiscal situation: "In the end, there is no credible path to reducing the long-term fiscal imbalance in the United States other than directly addressing high-cost cases in health care. The best bet, then, is to implement and improve the provider-value provisions in the health legislation, not abandon them."

They said it's 'The happiest time of your life'
But really, you were stabbed at 12
And now they're twisting the knife.
You know you need your times tables
And how to read and write.
But the rest of it alls just useless junk
And of your lifes path, you're losing sight.
Since when would an electrician need to know
when Krushchev took the reigns.
And trigonometry's the last on my mind
When I'm dodging through motorway lanes.
I have no plans to be a composer
So what use to me is a crotchet?
And I can't use a 'meander' as a come-back
When a thug screams at me 'oi, watch it'.
So pack up your Pis, your Shake and your Speares,
Your Bills, Abrahams and Ronalds.
And zip them all up in a neat little bag,
And drag it down to McDonalds.
My feelings about leaving high school.

Every year tens of thousands of nonhuman primates are trapped in the wild or captive-bred in terrible conditions, only to suffer and die in laboratories around the globe. Primates destined for research are packed in cramped, poorly ventilated wooden crates and shipped extremely long distances in the cargo holds of airplanes — often passenger flights. In addition to those used in research, thousands more primates are kept in chains or in small cages in roadside zoos, circuses, and in private homes as "pets," where they may languish for years and develop adverse physical as well as psychological conditions.
The More Beautiful Wild campaign aims to eliminate the trade in primates for research, entertainment, and private ownership, and to provide refuge to victims of the primate research, pet, and entertainment industries. The campaign will work toward this goal through:
Public Education about the cruelty of the primate trade, primate research, and the keeping of primates as "pets" or for use in entertainment.
Legislation aimed at increasing legal protections for primates exploited by the research, pet, and entertainment industries.
Consumer boycotts of airlines that transport wild-caught and captive-bred primates for research purposes.
Providing care and refuge at the Born Free USA Primate Sanctuary to nonhuman primate victims (macaques, vervets, and baboons) rescued from private ownership, roadside zoos and traveling shows, and research institutions.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
Most of the responses above are QQ >sigh<
Blizzard is not givining into all the QQ above. The Devs are no diffrent than alot of the constructive critisim. You need to remeber the roots of World of Warcraft. The creators were everquest players that say how unfun the game could be at the time. So they decided to make a game for the players not for themselves (basically ^_-).
World of Warcraft was built on players >fun factor< views. If it isn't fun for everyone they know someone is gonna come around and make it better. This is why you see the Devs taking critism from the players so seriously. You pay there salaries and they want to keep thier jobs. If you go somewhere's else with your 15 a month someone is outta a job.
Now stop QQing and give some constructive and non insulting critism to these guys or go QQ on another game where the Devs dont give a sh&! about you.

Eric Byrnes keeps saying he's not around to replace Luis Gonzalez in left field -- that it's impossible to replace the face of a franchise. But if Byrnes can keep producing seasons like the one he's enjoying
this year with the Diamondbacks, he'll win over the fans that have long
supported Gonzalez.
If he hasn't already, that is.
Byrnes became the first Diamondbacks player in the franchise's
nine-year history to hit at least 25 home runs and steal 25 or more bases in
a season when he reached both totals Wednesday.
He picked up the 25th homer -- a career high -- with a two-run shot
at AT&T Park in the first inning of Arizona's 6-3 victory over the
Giants, and he stole two bases in the fifth to raise his career-high total
to 25.
His 77 RBIs, also a career high, are tied for the team lead with
Chad Tracy and rookie Conor Jackson.
Byrnes, who signed a one-year deal to play center field in Arizona
this season after coming off a bad second half to 2005 with Baltimore
and Colorado, will take over the starting duties in left field next
Gonzalez, 39, was told by management earlier this month that he is
no longer in the team's plans. When that story broke, general manager
Josh Byrnes then announced that Byrnes would move from center to left in
2007 and rookies Chris Young (center field) and Carlos Quentin (right
field) would take up the other two spots.
Byrnes is arbitration-eligible, but there is speculation he may be
offered a multiyear deal by the Diamondbacks in the coming weeks. His
agent, Mike Sasson, has already had preliminary discussions with the club
on that front.
"Hopefully, we can work something out," Byrnes said. "A player like
me, generally, you just look at finding a job from one year to the
REPLAY: Claudio Vargas extended the starting rotation's streak of
quality starts to eight in a row when he allowed three runs and just four
hits over 6 2/3 innings Wednesday in the Diamondbacks' 6-3 victory in
San Francisco.
Vargas picked up his 12th victory and has now allowed an average of
2.5 earned runs over his past nine starts. Not bad for a pitcher who
barely won a job as the No. 5 starter coming out of spring training.
"He's had a nice year for us," manager Bob Melvin said. "Coming in,
you're the No. 4 or 5 guy and you put together what he put together
this year, you're going to take that anytime, so he's had a nice season
for himself."
Arizona finished 37-44 on the road, its third-lowest victory total
away from home in the franchise's nine-year history. The club won 31
road games during its inaugural season in 1998, and just 22 in 2004, when
it went 51-111.
--RHP Brandon Webb is expected to make one more start in Sunday's
final regular-season game against visiting San Diego. Webb, in the hunt
for the National League Cy Young Award, has had 23 "quality starts,"
including four in a row in a stretch that has seen him take over the NL ERA
lead (2.88) as well as tie for the lead league in wins (16), complete
games (5) and shutouts (3). He ranks second in innings pitched (231) and
ninth in strikeouts (167), and he leads all major-leaguers with a 3.66
groundout/flyout ratio.
--LF Luis Gonzalez got another day off Wednesday from manager Bob
Melvin as a way to rest up for what sure is to be an emotional end to the
season for the longtime face of the Diamondbacks franchise. Gonzalez
ends the year with four games at Chase Field, Thursday through Sunday
against the Padres.
Melvin noted that although Arizona is out of the playoff picture and
Gonzalez's final days will be well-celebrated, the Diamondbacks "can't
lose sight" of the fact the Padres are trying to capture a division
title, something that has never occurred by an opposing team at Chase
"It's not like we're going to run the kids out there all the time,"
he said. "We're going to have a balance every day of running our core
guys out there and some of our younger guys, not unlike what we've been
doing the second half anyway."
--3B Chad Tracy didn't start for the second time in four days
because of some nagging tendonitis in his left knee, a problem he and manager
Bob Melvin revealed earlier this week has been troubling Tracy all
season. If he is able, Tracy may start at least two of the club's final
four home games to end the year.
Melvin said medical reports suggest the knee will improve simply
through rest, but Tracy had indicated earlier he may have it fully
examined in the offseason.
--SS Craig Counsell, who is likely appearing in his last season with
the Diamondbacks, will get a start at either second base or shortstop
on Sunday in the club's final game of the year against San Diego. Manager Bob Melvin said the departure of LF Luis Gonzalez
shouldn't overshadow Counsell's contributions over the years.
"He deserves to be in there," Melvin said. "If Gonzo is the face and
the icon (of the franchise), then 'Couns' is the internal parts -- the
guts, the glue. I mean, he does all the little things without the
fanfare and always seems to be right in the middle of a win."
--C Johnny Estrada has become outspoken the past several days about
his reduction in playing time, and has said he now welcomes being
traded in the offseason to a team that wants to win. The Diamondbacks appear
to be comfortable going with rookie Miguel Montero and Chris Snyder
next season.
"He's had a nice offensive year," manager Bob Melvin said of
Estrada. "He's a guy we've counted on all season. ... He hasn't gotten as many
at-bats toward the end, but he's been our everyday guy and our No. 1
starter. ... I didn't read some of his quotes, but I'm not going to
comment on those. As far as where he ends up next year, that's up to the
front office. We feel we have some viable options with Montero and Snyder.
That's one of the positions where we have a little bit of surplus."
BY THE NUMBERS: 1-62 -- Diamondbacks' record when trailing after
eight innings, through Sept. 26.
QUOTE TO NOTE: "He'll hit third and do what he normally does, but
I've got a few things up my sleeve for that last day." -- Manager Bob
Melvin, on Luis Gonzalez's last game with the Diamondbacks, Oct. 1 at home
against the Padres. Arizona recently informed the veteran left fielder
he will not be welcomed back next season.
3B Chad Tracy didn't play Sept. 24 because of tendonitis in his left
knee, which he said has been bothering him all season. He was back in
the lineup Sept. 25, but he sat out Sept. 27.
1B Tony Clark had season-ending surgery Sept. 20 to repair damage to
the labrum in his right shoulder. The Diamondbacks hope he will be
ready for the start of spring training.
OF Jeff DaVanon, who went on the disabled list retroactive to Aug. 6
with a left ankle sprain, had season-ending surgery on Sept. 6.
Estrada Leaves; Batista Stays; Starters Come
Johnny Estrada appears to be on his way out of Arizona, and he's not playing nice as he walks away;…
