We're in the middle of a heat wave here in NYC. It's 106 degrees without wind chill and I'm dripping sweat by the time I get to work.
I do a single set every day at lunch and today I'm tempted to not go out. The park is deathly hot but I decide that this is when it's most important to keep doing it–when I don't feel like doing it. Consistency has gotten me this far.
I decide to head over to Barnes and Noble. I walk in and see this amazing girl. She's gotta be a 9.5. Even though I had an amazing day 2 last night and have been number closing like crazy in the last few days, I begin to get approach anxiety.
This is what it's all about to me. Getting that approach anxiety. Knowing that I'm pushing my limit and challenging myself. I begin to deal with the approach anxiety using deep breathing. I'd walked away from the girl but now I walk back toward her.
I open her with "Can you tell me where I can find books on Tantric for Pets?" She sorta smiles but doesn't quit laugh. "Actually, I just wanted to say hi. My name's Eric." I can hear the nervousness in my voice. It's like my voice is tight, I'm not relaxed.
She says her name is Michelle as we shake hands. Her huge blue eyes are burning right through me.
"Are you from around here?" I ask. She says no, she's from and she's interning. "Where?" I ask. She says Barney's. "Cool," I say. I got nothing. "Yeah, you, um, seem creative."
"What do you do?" she asks. I say I'm in IT and try to drop some cocky funny about always getting hit on by the interns when I set up their computers.
She says "It was nice meeting you" and turns and walks off.
I start to feel a bit of the humiliation of getting blown out, but not a lot. At this point I've been through it enough times that it doesn't sting so much.
Okay, so looking back, there was about 20 different things I could have done. And it wasn't a total blowout.
It was good though because I went out and did my set. Beyond that, this girl was incredibly cute. Olive mediterranean skin with a nose ring and a really nice smile. I'm getting used to talking to super hot girls. As somebody said a while back, to start dating hot girls thing you have to do is start approaching hot girls.

Hey Eric
I was wondering if there would be any way to redeem yourself from this shortfall? Could you come back another day when you are more comfortable to give it another shot?
Why does it have to be so horrible for the guy to wait to be approached so that HE will know that she is interested? I cannot imagine approaching ANY woman who did not want me. If she is interested , then she will come up.What is wrong with that? I get to waste MY time?
because as a general rule Dave, she won't.
Because it is an almost universal truth that women want men to demonstrate a willingness to risk something for their interest, and unless you are gorgeous or famous, waiting for them to make the first move is allowing the really good ones to walk on by before they get a chance to get to know you. That's why.

One person has been killed and another injured in a stabbing at a northeast
Columbus home Wednesday afternoon.
According to Columbus police, a 72-year-old man called 911 from the 4900
block of Kingpin Drive at about 2:26 p.m. Wednesday.
The man allegedly told dispatchers that he stabbed his wife and cut his own
throat, according to detectives.
Arriving officers and medic personnel found Margaret R. Mortensen, 74, with
multiple knife wounds. She was pronounced dead at the scene.
Leif H. Mortensen, 72, was transported to Riverside Methodist Hospital,
in critical condition. His condition was later stabilized, according to police.
Neighbors told NBC4 that the couple had lived in the home for a few
years. They said the couple's son had arrived at the home after the incident to
speak with detectives.
Detectives said Leif Mortensen met officers outside the home holding
his neck with one hand, and a cell phone in the other.
Leif Moretensen has been charged with murder.

Carl Marzani
Carl Aldo Marzani was an American leftwing political activist and publisher. He was successively a Communist Party organizer, volunteer soldier in the Spanish Civil War, United States federal intelligence official, documentary filmmaker, author, and publisher. During World War II he served in the federal intelligence agency, the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) and later the U.S. Department of State. He picked the targets for the Doolittle raid on Tokyo, which took place on April 18, 1942. Marzani served nearly three years in prison for having concealed his Communist Party membership while in the OSS.
Marzani was born in Rome, Italy. The family emigrated to the United States in 1924 and settled in Scranton, Pennsylvania. Carl entered the first grade at the age of twelve, not knowing English. He graduated from High School in 1931 with a scholarship to Williams College. There, Marzani became a Socialist and joined the League for Industrial Democracy. He began writing and became the editor of the school's literary magazine. In 1935 he got married to his first wife, Edith Eisner, an actress whose stage name was Edith Emerson. The same year, he graduated summa cum laude from Williams College with a BA in English. Marzani thereupon moved to New York. In 1936 he received a Moody fellowship to Oxford University.
When the Spanish Civil War broke out Marzani traveled to Spain to volunteer for the Republican army. He commanded troops the Durruti Column, a unit of the anarchist wing of the Republican forces, during late 1936 and early 1937. He soon resumed university studies and in June 1938 Marzani received a BA in Modern Greats, Philosophy, Politics and Economics from Oxford. The former anarchist supporter underwent a radical change in his ideology, joining the British Communist Party and serving as its treasurer of the South Midlands district. In the summer of 1938 Marzani and his second wife travelled around the world, visiting India, Indochina, China, Japan, and Europe, using Communist Party contacts to meet Nehru and others.
After their world tour, the Marzanis returned to the United States and went on relief, the New Deal term for government assistance and welfare. Eventually they got government paid jobs with the Works Progress Administration (WPA) while at the same time joining the CPUSA under false identities. Marzani joined the CPUSA 23 August 1939, on the day the Nazi-Soviet Pact was signed. As a WPA instructor at New York University, as served as district Organizer for the Communist Party on the Lower East Side of New York. After the German invasion of the Soviet Union in mid 1941, Marzani became director of a popular front anti-fascist organization, and resigned from the Communist party in August, 1941.
In early 1942 after the United States became involved in World War II, Marzani joined the OSS, the predecssor organization of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). Marzani worked under Colonel William J. Donovan from 1942-1945 in the Analysis Branch. While at the OSS Marzani worked closely with a group of Soviet agents managed by Eugene Dennis, who later became CPUSA General Secretary. In 1945 Marzani transferred to the Department of State, where he worked as the Deputy Chief of the Presentation Division of the Office of Intelligence. Marzani handled the preparation of top secret reports.
In 1946 Marzani founded and directed Union Films, a film documentary company that had contracts with United Electrical and other unions to do documentaries. One film entitled Deadline for Action, was released in September 1946, five weeks before Marzani resigned from the State Department. The film blamed the United States for the Cold War.
In January 1947 Marzani was indicted for defrauding the government by receiving government pay while concealing CPUSA membership. He was convicted on 22 June 1947, but nine counts were overturned on appeal, while the Supreme Court split 4-4 on a rare rehearing of the last two charges. Marzani served all but four months of a thirty-six month sentence.
In prison, Marzani began work on a book blaming President Harry S. Truman for starting the Cold War. Caught attempting to smuggle a manuscript out of prison in 1950, he was placed in solitary confinement for seven months. The book was published in 1952 as We Can Be Friends: The Origins of the Cold War.
Union Films went out of business during his stay in prison. After his release in 1951, Marzani edited UE Steward for the United Electrical Workers until 1954. The same year he joined Cameron Associates and partnered with Angus Cameron to run Liberty Book Club. Liberty Book Club eventually became Marzani & Munsell which operated the Library-Prometheus Book Club. In this phase of his career Marzani was a contact for the Soviet secret police agency, the KGB, and the KGB subsidized his publishing house in the 1960s, according to allegations made in 1994 by Oleg Kalugin, a retired KGB officer.
Marzani was one of the interviewees in Vivian Gornick's 1977 book, The romance of American communism. Like the other interviewees, Marzani was concealed by a pseudonym; his was "Eric Lanzetti".

Heather Lang Books
Queen of the Track
Things were going badly for the American women's track and field team at the 1948 Olympics in London. One by one the athletes went down to defeat. Finally, any hope of winning rested on the shoulders of an athlete named Alice Coachman. Though it was late in the day and all other competitions were over, thousands of spectators stayed for the end of the high jump event and witnessed history. Alice Coachman became the first African American woman to win a gold medal. In time for the Olympic Games in London, this uplifting picture book follows Alice Coachman from rural Georgia, where she overcame adversity both as a woman and as a black athlete, to her triumph in Wembley Stadium, where King George VI presented her with the Olympic gold.
A portion of the author's royalties will be donated to the Alice Coachman Foundation, which helps deserving and proven amateur athletes reach their full potential.
"It's my wish that every young person read this inspiring book. Alice Coachman is truly a hero and her accomplishments remind us all to never give up when the odds are against us."
—Jackie Joyner Kersee, Olympic gold medalist
"Lang's descriptive text and Cooper's signature sepia-tone oil illustrations offer a rich, deep depiction of Coachman's determination to overcome obstacles."
"[T]his biography stands out for the lesser-known details it includes . . . Cooper's grainy sepia-hued pastels are striking; endnotes with more about Coachman and the historic 1948 Olympics support the thorough text."
—The Horn Book
"Lang has done her homework on Coachman."
—The Nonfiction Detectives
"[A]ccessible enough to appeal to new readers, and detailed enough to jump-start students looking for an excellent candidate for a National History Day project."
—The Denver Post

I decided to make 2014 the year of the saturn back in January, and Ive been giving it a hammering ever since.
I bought one second hand about 12 years ago and have built up quiet a collection in that time. About 100 Jap imports and around 70 pal titles.
Im on disc 4 of Panzer dragoon Saga at present and Im playing it similatneously on a Jap and Pal Saturn just to maximise the enjoyment.
Played heaps of Nights too, finally got around to "A" ranking all the levels, and unlocking all the presents in Xmas nights.
I love Rayman on the saturn, it has got to be one of the prettiest platformers of all time.
I love the 4mg ram fighters, Norimaru has got to be the most politically incorrect fighter of all time.
The Saturn is an incredible machine and makes the playstation look like a piece of rubbish that the mainstream flocked to.

Toni Braxton and her siblings have gotten into the reality show business, with "Braxton Family Values."
Launching at 9 p.m. April 12 on WEtv, the show is billed as a inside look at "the rambunctious, tight-knit Braxton sisters" as they deal with "sibling rivalry, man drama, bankruptcy, a DUI and much more!"
Now that's entertainment, folks.
So, want to meet Toni, Traci, Towanda, Trina and Tamar and their "headstrong mother"?
The WE network is running a Twitter sweepstakes (a Tweet-stakes?) contest. The winner gets to travel to L.A. for the show's launch.
Meanwhile, we'll be attending an event tonight with Braxton, here in Atlanta, where she will be promoting the show. Anything you'd like us to ask?

How President, Govs breach police rules, by Justice Akintan
The debate as to what form the Constitution review should take has been very intensive. Some believe that it should be sovereign while some say it should not. Some even believe that such exercise was not necessary or that the matter should be left with the National Assembly as provided for in the present Constitution. While the position of those calling for a sovereign conference is not yet clearly defined, they probably envisage that the outcome of such conference should not be subjected to interference by anybody as was the position in the past.Read More →

Diplomatic notification 2004/6:
Notification 2004/6
Meeting of the Standing Committee Subgroups on COP9 and Finance
The Secretariat of the Convention on Wetlands (Ramsar, Iran, 1971) presents its compliments and has the honour to refer to the following:
Contracting Parties will be aware that the Standing Committee decided at its 30th meeting that "the Subgroups may be convened early in 2005 to assess progress and prepare decisions for SC31. In particular, the Standing Committee delegated the Subgroup on Finance to make selections for the 2004 cycle of Small Grants Fund project proposals, based upon comments offered by Standing Committee members following circulation by the Secretariat of the nomination materials" (Decision SC30-20).
After consultation with the Chairpersons of the Standing Committee, the Subgroup on COP9 and the Subgroup on Finance, the Secretariat is pleased to inform Contracting Parties that the Subgroups will be meeting in Gland, Switzerland, from 7 to10 March 2005. A provisional programme/draft agenda is attached. The Subgroups will meet both separately and jointly during these days, which will allow close interaction on related issues.
Since it was decided that the meeting of the two Subgroups shall be open meetings, except where the Chair decides otherwise, all Contracting Parties are entitled to attend as observers, at their own expense.
The Ramsar Secretariat would be grateful if Contracting Parties wishing to attend the meeting as observers would notify their intention to participate in that capacity by 20 January 2005. The working documents will be available on the Ramsar Web site from early February. Paper copies will not be sent.
It should be noted that, due to financial constraints, the working papers for these meetings, with the exception of the draft agendas, will be produced in English only, and that the meeting will be conducted in English.
Likewise, financial constraints prevent the Secretariat from providing financial support to assist states that are not members of the Subgroups to attend.
Those Contracting Parties unable to attend the meeting as observers are invited to note the enclosed Agenda and, as appropriate, offer views and opinions on the issues and matters under discussion to the Regional Representative(s) from their region, or to transmit them directly to the Secretary General.
The Secretariat of the Convention on Wetlands respectfully requests that the content of the present note be communicated to the competent national authorities and avails itself of this opportunity to renew "salut" the assurance of its highest consideration.

An Old Short Tale
The wind blows gently throughout the trees, making a soothing 'swoosh' noise with every pass through the leaves surrounding the front yard. As she gradually takes puffs from her cigarette, holding in and blowing out over increasingly longer periods, Caroline begins to feel at ease. The protective feeling of being so small in Jackson's strong, solid embrace sweetly envelopes her as she rests on his lap, together on their front porch; just like when she was held by her Father as a little girl. It's a warm, sunny summer day. Not to the point of excess; not to the point of leaving warmth to be desired. She is doing everything she can to allow this moment to take over her; this moment where she is not afraid. "Puff, puff, puff." The time serenely passes by as Jackson occasionally lovingly smiles at her, kisses her cheek, or the tips of her small, tanned shoulders or the top of her head. As she flicks the ashes into the nearby container, he sometimes expressively recalls to her the pleasant, uncomplicated events of his youth, growing up in the area. Caroline was raised in the area as well, but was not nearly as fortunate as Jackson with regards to family status and wealth. She is thankful for the beauty and sensual presence that she knew she possessed, as this is what attracted an affluent young man like him to a girl like her, with the sordid path she had traveled. In truth, it didn't bother her to use her appearance to obtain things she would otherwise be lost without. If not for Jackson, she possibly never would have survived another year in this small, hellish Southern town that she was unable to will herself to leave. To be alone here for much longer would have been unthinkable. It was her looks that brought him to her, and it is her looks that allow him to put up with her "spells" of temporary madness. However it came about that he became a part of her life, now he was here and she knew he loved her. With every sweet, gentle kiss and every time he held her in his arms like this, she knew she was loved. He's doing this for her; to set her mind at ease.
Yesterday, in the evening, something terrible happened. It left her trembling to the point of convulsion in the yard, her teeth clenched tightly together, her stomach in knots and tears streaming down her face. She was screaming out for Jackson. It is this experience that has caused her and everyone around her to question her sanity. It is this experience that she is trying to allow to remain in the deep, dark recesses of her subconscious; pushing it out of the forefront of her thoughts as she intently contemplates little more than the cigarette smoke exiting her lips and the new forms it assumes in the air. At the time of this event, Jackson was out at the far end of the yard, talking with a neighbor whom he used to attend school with as a child. Caroline stumbled out of the home they had recently purchased together, legs wobbly, light-headed, and bellowing out shrill, extended screams. "JACKSON?!?!?!?!?" The sheer terror she could clearly detect in his face, his eyes, even at a distance, remains vividly etched in her memory. In fact, for the briefest of moments, the intensity of his expression halted even her own knowledge of what had just taken place within the home. Soon, she fell to her knees and began rolling in horror on the ground, waiting for his strong arms to swoop her up and protect her once again.
On the night of the event, Caroline was calmly set at her vanity, in the dimly lit bedroom in the new home which she and Jackson purchased with their own hard-earned finances. Jackson's family was greatly displeased with him for choosing her as a wife, which resulted in them no longer offering him access to their own family fortune. It was for this reason that Jackson had to get a local mill job, which he had been tirelessly working for the past year and a half. He insisted that they save as much money as possible, while also doing everything he could to make her feel as though he was still her prince, and she, his princess. Whether this meant extravagant dinners a minimum of once per month, diamond jewelry whenever he could get a more-supportive relative to purchase it on the terms that he would gradually repay them, or taking her out for long, romantic drives and picnics in the country on the weekends, where he would make passionate love to her. He took care of her, and did everything at his disposal to make her feel that love; to show her that even without his families' funds, he was no less of a husband or a man. Caroline could see this, and was helplessly touched and romanced by all of his efforts. This Jackson tried harder than the Jackson she had first met to garner her affections and her pride in him as a partner.
The bedroom in which Caroline sits before her vanity is large and encased in dark wood paneling along the walls and reddish-brown laminate flooring. Remaining predominately unfurnished, the bed she and her husband share sits in the center of the room in front of a large window with a view into the front yard. There is a record player on the far end of the room opposite to where Carolyn is sitting. She refines her typically liberal and striking application of makeup for the evening out that Jackson has planned for the two of them. He has promised to take her for a lavish dinner in a nearby city, and later a romantic movie at their town's drive-in theater. Through the closed blinds, Caroline can somewhat make out the shape of her husband far out into the yard. She smiles, the mere knowledge of his relative closeness resulting in a great sense of fulfillment and overall inner-peace. "How lucky I am," she softly remarks aloud to herself.
Mere moments later, she hears a scratching sound in the far end of the room where the record player is located. She quickly turns her head, mildly alarmed and in confusion. What she then sees causes her to become instantly more fearfully-perplexed. The needle of the old record player her Father left to her begins to move seemingly by itself, and the record therein begins to spin with rapidly increasing pace; faster than a record ordinarily spins. She hears a song she has not heard for some time - a song that she vaguely and eerily recalls from a dark time in her childhood; Wonderful, Wonderful by Johnny Mathis. It was she who placed the record player in the room, and certainly would not have allowed herself or Jackson to place any record containing that particular song atop it.
She sits still, mouth agape, every muscle and bone in her body made petrified. Her eyes become visibly glossed over, her vision blurred, as the sound of the song begins to lull her into a semi-unconscious state. At that moment, she sees a red-haired woman with red eyes and long, blood-red fingernails enter the room and levitate mere inches above the floor towards her. Her hair is long, curly and coarse as if it had been ravaged in a red desert windstorm. She is dressed in a long, black hooded cloak and her feet lack human characteristics; almost hoof-like. The music continues to play to the point of blaring throughout the room. This red-haired seemingly demonic womanlike presence levitates before her, staring directly into her eyes and begins to laugh uncontrollably, but can barely be heard through the loudness of the music. Terrified, Caroline only notices herself crying as she feels the tears fall down her cheeks after exiting her enlarged, expressive eyes. The woman before her continues to laugh maniacally until suddenly the laughter ceases. At that moment, the music stops and the womanlike creature does nothing but stare an intense, evil stare with her seemingly blood-soaked eyes, a stare containing unmistakably sadistic anger and pure hatred. The demonic figure wraps its sickly, pale hands and long fingers around both sides of Caroline's face, and forcibly rotates her head, every bone in Caroline's neck slowly and painfully snapping. As her head is spun around, Caroline is then positioned so as to be face-to-face with her reflection in the mirror. The woman stands behind her in the reflection, and Caroline sees what looks to be a tall man wearing her father's work clothing now standing in the very back of the room towards the bedroom door. She is unable to see his face as the mirror's reflection allows her to see only up to the point of the man's chest. She tries with every fibre of strength and will within her to spin her head around, hoping to meet her Father's loving, protective gaze, but she is unable to move her head, the bones in her neck completely broken. Her eyes then meet with a final terrifying sight; her own reflection, blood and mascara streaming down her eyes in place of tears. The woman-creature gradually leaves the room, stopping momentarily before the man in the doorway, then finally exiting. The terror within consumes Caroline, as the music begins again and she slowly closes her eyes, filled with sorrow and helplessness and confusion.
Just then, she feels herself almost "awake" in a sense from an impossibly vivid dream. She proceeds to cautiously but with ferocious abandon, speed out of the bedroom and finally out of the house, beginning to scream after witnessing Jackson, unable to contain her hopeless and adrenaline-filled desire to have his body encompass her. He surrounds her at last. Overwhelmed with the inability to understand her affliction, he wants nothing more than to make her O.K.

Is Bulger the worst QB in the NFL?
I sure am glad that I didn't draft Bulger onto my fantasy team. 7 points scored in two full games. Can it get any worse? I cannot think of one starting NFL QB that I wouldn't take over Bulger. Our two backups would surely have produced more than 3.5 points per game. And yet I don't read any criticism of him at all. The usual line is that he is doing the best he can and the multiple failures are due to the bad play of others on the team. How did he earn such blind support that no other fanbase would give him? Maybe he is hurting from injuries. Whatever, let's see what the other QBs can do. Obviously we are not going to the playoffs with the current QB.

This is a well thought out position that nobody on this board has ever considered before. This thread will garner a lot of fantastic responses because everybody around here is always saying "we need more threads on Marc Bulger."

Yes, 2 draft #1, one multimillion dollar QB and one first round QB.
Russel, Cassel, Leftwich, Stafford, Campbell, Quinn.

Re: Is Bulger the worst QB in the NFL?
Is Bulger the worst QB in the NFL?
I have a better question, Are the St. Louis rams the most uncoordinated team in the NFL?
Good to exceptional talent, but just cannot find the combinations to close the deal. Alex Barron was an all-world tackle at Florida State, and physically fits the bill to be one of the best in the league. But when I see him get beat on on two consecutive plays, both of which Carter got to Bulger, I get really upset. Alex is better than that...I know it! Remember when many said that Warner was through, washed-up, too old, always injured?
It ain't just the QB that that should be reviewed here.
Best to all

Re: Is Bulger the worst QB in the NFL?
Well i'm tired as hell of all the Bulger bashing (i frankly don't know what to think anymore), but the better thread here (inside the thread) is what starting qbs would you not start over Bulger... for me the list is the following
Trent Edwards, Brady Quinn, David Garrard, Kyle Orton, JaMarcus Russell, Jason Campbell, Matthew Stafford, Jake Delhomme, Byron Leftwitch, Shaun Hill
And really this list is very generous considering I'd really rather have the future of Stafford and possibly Quinn, and Garrard, Hill, and Delhomme are very close to Bulger (the Bulger of right now that is!!!!).

Apple's online store went down, then back up again, surprisingly – with details of the options that will be available for future Verizon iPhone customers. Then, a while later, they removed the details.
To no avail, of course, since in the meantime they were saved and discussed everywhere.
The 16GB iPhone will cost $199, and the 32GB model $299. For individual voice plans, costs are at $39.99 for 450 minutes, 900 minutes at $59.99 and Nationwide Unlimited at a slightly higher $69.99.
Family SharePlans go from $60.00 for 700 minutes, all the way up to unlimited for $119.99. Only one data plan is available, costing $29.99 unlimited, with an add-on that gives you 2 GB mobile hotspot and tethering data per month. It runs another $20.
Check out all the details for messaging options and costs, as I'm sure they're easier to read from a chart than strung out in a long sentence.

CHENEY, Wash.-- Hundreds of high school students converged in Cheney for the 2012 spokane regional "First Robotics" Competition.
The competition took palce at Eastern Washington University, and this is the first time this particular competition has come to the Inland Northwest.
This year's theme is "rebound rumble" and teams had to create a basketball playing robot with a set of parts sent to them by the first robotics organization.
Mack Chilson and his team from Reardan High School are in town for a 3 day robotics competition. It is one of 55 regional events taking place across the country.
Chilson, said "We're still having numatic issues to shoot the ball up to score, so we're working to get the kinks out right now, we at least can move, that's a plus."
Christian Alexander from Rogers High School said, "We had six weeks to build it from scratch, and so we had to bring in electrical, we had to bring in programming, and mechanical to build our robot."
Christian says the competition isn't just about building a robot, it involves problem solving and working together in teams. "We found out right before we were about to go, that our launcher motor didn't work, so we couldn't shoot any baskets, so we instantly came up with a defensive strategy, so we could balance on the bridge, since it still gets you points for cooperation."
The competition ends Saturday afternoon, and out of more than fifty teams competing, six will move on to the world championships in St. Louis later this month.

Losing in a forced game 3 to the Atlanta Mets in the first round of the playoffs.

In 2008 we made the Semi-Finals again but lost to the eventual Champions The Atlanta Clowns. In 2009 we lost in the Divisional Round to the Atlanta Crackers. In 2010 we lost in the Divisional Round to the Cherokee Dragons losing the rubber game in a three games series 5 to 4.

Hi everyone.
We just received our grant and we're going to purchase some. 5k for three classroom setup. I'll just want a feel of what people has used and what has worked and didn't work. Looking for feedback on tech support, warranty, ease of use, teacher curriculum/lesson plans, features. Looking into mobile board as it'll have to be moved around.
Some of the brands I'm looking into are: Smart, Numonic and Promethean.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.

"Racist club"Reviewed 2014-06-27 06:18:06 By aartivaid
I visited Dubai like a month back to celebrate my Birthday with my friends from India... So for my birthday i had planned on going to Cavalli Club to celebrate... But that lady at the entrance was probably the most racist and arrogant human ive ever encountered in my life... We were perfectly dressed according to their dress code... But coz we were Indians they just made random excuses and didnt let us in ... And the shocking part was that most whites that were coming were getting entry without following the dress code and in front of us a group of male stags(whites) got entrance... Who were very casually dressed in denims... I was shocked and i decided that i would never ever visit that racist club again and would not recommend any India to go there and party! dubai has many more places anyways..

Cannot be fooled into the other venues around Dubai, Cavalli remains by far the venue of choice. Eclectic clientele, smart staff, and great entertainment. Can't beat it really!
"Rejected at the entrance for being smart casual?!"Reviewed 2014-04-10 17:08:58 By Chrissy2281
Well I just left Cavalli very disappointed! I was accompanied of 3 men's, my very good friends, one of them being on vacation for a short time! On his "to do list" was this place! We got rejected at the door because: I was in jeans, white shirt with suspendables on top and flat shoes! Overall I was too casual for them!!! Considering the fact that I'm not wearing heels because I'm 1.79 m and also of medical problems, not to mention that I don't wear dresses that short (as I saw at the entrance of this "restaurant & lounge" ), I got rejected! Don't understand the mentality of the people on the venue's door as for being modest dressed (...sorry to mention but my clothes are quite expensive), u get: sorry, u cannot enter! So girls (yes I'm a girl) please wear short, transparent dresses with high heels and u get to enter everywhere! I still don't get it: is Cavalli a restaurant & lounge or club for show off??!

ARLINGTON, TX—Big stars, a big payroll and lots of big comebacks. It all makes for one big disappointment that the New York Yankees won't be repeating as World Series champions.
The Yankees' reign ended Friday night at the hands of the Texas Rangers. Phil Hughes got into trouble in the fifth inning and a supposedly powerful lineup went down meekly against Colby Lewis, sending Texas to a 6-1 victory and putting the franchise in the World Series for the first time.
Joe Girardi said. "And as I told my guys, this hurts. I've been through it as a player. I've been through it as a coach and now I've been through it as a manager. It's not a lot of fun watching other teams celebrate."
The Bronx Bombers came into the AL championship series expecting to clobber the upstart Rangers, just like they had in their three previous postseason series back in the late 1990s. With their postseason pedigree, more wins this season and a first-round sweep, the Yankees were heavily favored to claim their 41st AL pennant.
But they really only outplayed Texas in one inning of Game 1 and all of Game 5.
"They outhit us, they outpitched us, outplayed us and they beat us," Girardi said. "You take away one inning and one game, and it was very one-sided. We just didn't get it done."
Robinson Cano and Curtis Granderson were the only reliable hitters. Mark Teixeira was hitless in 14 at-bats this series before being lost to an injury. Cleanup hitter Alex Rodriguez had just four hits and leadoff man Derek Jeter scored only two runs.
"It doesn't matter what kind of lineup you have on paper, you still have to play the games," Jeter said. "They pitched better than our offense. We couldn't get a lot going. They're moving on. They're the better team. They beat us. ... We thought we had a team that could win it. But they did too. Obviously they were better than we were. It's never a given to be in this position, any year."
Mariano Rivera was outstanding as usual, but Girardi was only able to use him in a single save situation - Game 1. The starting pitching let the club down, from Hughes failing to finish the fifth inning in either of his starts and A.J. Burnett getting into trouble in Game 4. Even ace CC Sabathia was bad in the opener, which New York won 6-5 with a five-inning rally in the eighth.
"Sometimes you run into a buzzsaw," outfielder Nick Swisher said. "It's been an uphill battle the entire series. But sometimes you've got to pull off some tough wins. We couldn't get that done. That nasty feeling we have in our stomachs right now, that's definitely going to help us this offseason."
On deck, a possibly wild winter.
Jeter's contract is up, as are the deals for Girardi, Rivera and Andy Pettitte, who would've started Game 7.
General manager Brian Cashman wore a hat with " spring training" written on it, sending the message he's already planning for 2011. Asked about re-signing Girardi, Cashman said, "I would think that it would be the first order of business."
A close second might be pursuing Cliff Lee.
Lee is the new ace of the Rangers, but the way he's dominated the Yankees the last two seasons makes them want him even more. They almost got him in a midseason trade, but lost out. Texas may have given up better prospects to get him from Seattle, but if this negotiation comes down to money, well, there's no equal to New York's willingness to spend.
Jeter wasn't ready to talk about his free agency or anything else offseason-related.
"I haven't even thought about it," he said. "It's 15 minutes after we lost. I'm not thinking about what we need next year. We just lost. I can't comment on that."
Pettitte said he wishes he knew what's next for him.
"I'll talk to my wife and see what she's thinking, and then see how I'm feeling about it, whether I want to do it again," he said.
Winning title No. 28 this season would've been extra special to the Yankees because of the special people commemorated on jersey patches: owner George Steinbrenner and longtime public-address announcer Bob Sheppard. They died within days of each other this summer.
Hal Steinbrenner, the club's managing general partner, issued this statement: "On behalf of the New York Yankees I want to congratulate the Texas Rangers, Chuck Greenberg, Nolan Ryan and their entire ownership, staff and organization on winning their first American League pennant. They played like champions and we wish them the best of luck representing the American League in the World Series."

I signed a petition to Sally Jewell and President Barack Obama which says:
"I am calling for an immediate ban on oil and gas fracking on all federal lands. The Bureau of Land Management's draft rules for fracking on public lands fail to protect the water we drink, the air we breathe, the climate we depend on, and the land many of us call home. This land is our land and should be managed for the good of the people, not corporate profits for the oil and gas industry.

Miraculous Wound Healing Oil

I would like to share my expirience with Onycha. I cut my thumb very deeply with a knife. Usualy such cuts cause pain and inflamation for many days. I used a drop of Onycha just after I cut my thumb and wrapped it to stop bleeding.
After a couple of hours I applied one drop again and repeated the procedure on the next day. The wound was healing extremely quickly. There was no inflamation, no pain at all (only for a few seconds after application).
After a week there was no sign of the cut. Since then Onycha helped many friends of mine who were fascinated with the incredible effectivness of the oil.
I only wish Onycha was available separately (not only in the Oils of Ancient Scripture kit).
Warm wishes,
PS. Please excuse my English. I was trying my best.

Grounding (punishment)
Grounding is a form of punishment given to children, usually older children, preadolescents or adolescents by their parents (or teachers or headmasters in a school setting) for bad behavior and poor performance in school or other duties. In the terms of behavioral psychology, grounding is a negative punishment because it involves the removal of desired things, rather than the addition of undesired things.[1]
Every now and then, a young person who is grounded is banned from leaving home or their room to go anywhere other than to attend required activities such as school, meals, church, music practice, etc. Grounding does not necessarily mean people are unable to come over, only going out is prohibited. It is commonly combined with the withdrawal of privileges such as the use of computer, Internet, emails, video games, television, telephone, cars, mobile phones, prom, slumber party, movie theaters, etc., and some children may even be sent to bed early.[citation needed] Depending on the severity of the person's behavior, some groundings can last from as short as a day or two, to as long as a month or year, while some last an indefinite amount of time.
The term most likely originated in the aviation community. When an aviator is restricted from flying due to misconduct, illness, or other reasons they are said to be "grounded."

Roundup: Inspiration Wires
We're all about new choices for 2009 and we're mixing it up first with our inspiration board. Traditionally, we have used a cork board to display our motivational bits of information but we're thinking we'd like to try an inspiration wire. We've rounded up lots of images using wires, string, clipboards and clothespins to help us out with our new project after the jump.
[Image on first page from Chara Michele]
7 Comments
i love all of these ideas. already have a few clip boards!
I really like the chicken wire inspiration board. It is the first time I have seen this simple (and inexpensive) idea!
I love the clipboards!
this is one of my favorite ways to display our daily (hourly!) kids' artwork. They like hanging up pieces themselves, and we like how varied and whimsical it looks all strung together
We have a wall of wires in our studio, and it's such a simple, cheap, and flexible way to keep certain items in view -- inspirational images, bills, etc. I love these kinds of flexible display arrangements.
We have one in our pocket office. see it here:
I love this too!
