"Le colombe" is the perfect home for who is looking for a stay that combines the feeling of being in an itallian historic palazzo, but at the same time in a house with any modern comfort and close to all kind of facilities. The location of this house, directly on the lake side promenade of Salò, will allow you to live in full the life of this cheerfull town and it's wide choise of caffes, restaurants, live music concerts, shops and high quality delicatessen like ice creams and pastries (just below the house). Certainly most of the time you will find your self on the the charming terrace looking over the entire gulf of Salò and it's cotto tiles roof and campanile.
The house is part of an historic palazzo from the XVII° century that belonged to the countness Lucia Tracagni, the magnificence of the back cortyard and the entrance with frescos will impress all visitors.
The house has air conditioning in each bedroom, washing machine and inner parking space for two cars.
This partner has demonstrated and is committed to fast response times, the best rates, and a great guest experience.
First of all the lake is just in front of you and the main road is not just behind you. Moreover it is one of the few houses in the center of Salò with two private parking spaces in the property.
This is a truly delightful place to stay in Salo. The large terrace equipped with table and chairs as well as recliners is the perfect spot to enjoy breakfasts and the canopy provides shade for those that want it in the afternoons. The kitchen is very well equipped and remains cool throughout the day. The third bedroom has been recently refitted to include a further single bed (which saved one of us needing to climb up the small set of steps to the raised bed) and all bedrooms have lakeside views, there is also plenty of hanging space for clothes. We were all agreed that is was lovely to have so much room to spread out. We can also recommend the patisserie and pizzeria below. Many thanks for a wonderful stay
The best location, a wonderful apartment, well equipped and comfortable but retaining the old charm of the palazzo. Laura was most helpful and welcoming. The wine and gorgeous cheese was a fantastic gift from Laura which we really enjoyed
I would recommend Le Colombe and definitely visit again in the future
This apartment went beyond our expectations....the location is perfect, the apartment beautiful! We enjoyed 5 days in Lake Garda and cannot wait to come back!
Laura and Paola were very easy to communicate with and always available when we had things come up.
We highly recommend this property!
This was our second stay in Salo and this apartment was perfect for our party of five adults. The standout feature was the terrace overlooking the lake where we ate breakfast every morning. The terrace is a good size and comfortably accommodated the five of us. There was also an impressive dining room which also overlooks the lake and which has fantastic light throughout the day. The bed rooms were comfortable and two bathrooms meant that competition for swowers was not a problem
The apartment is located close to the Duomo which is towards one end of the town of Salo. It has provision for parking and is perhaps 100 metres from a bus stop should you wish to use public transport.
Laura and her partner Jacapo were delightful to deal with and we would have no hesitation in dealing with them again and similarly, we would be more than happy to rent this apartment again. A fantastic base for a stay on Lake Garda. Highly recommended!
Das ist eine der schönsten Ferienwohnungen, die wir je gesehen haben. Es ist alles vorhanden was man braucht,
Die Lage ist unschlagbar und die Gastgeber sehr aufmerksam. Einzig die Zufahrt zum Parkplatz führt durch
enge Gassen aber es ist Italien, oder?
Overall it was great, but just needs some additional finishing touches.
The house is located directly on the lake side promenade of Salò, which is a lively centre with its beautiful shops, restaurants and caffès. Walking on the edge of the lake eating a tasteful ice-cream or having an aperitivo in its elegant caffes is a very relaxing activity. Within walking distance you will find everything you need, restaurants, caffès, any kind of shops, supermarket and also the best ice cream place I have ever tried!

Where it happened: in a restaurant
Langauge: English
Sex: Female
Rating: 10
Category: Straight
It's not easy telling the world about my first time, but at the same time, the notion of going public is rather exciting. Here's the story of my sexual experience:
I was attending this rather dismal wedding reception, and to make things worse, the persons I was sharing the table with were ultimate bores. When the first dance started, I was left alone at the table, really bored out of my wits. I was rather disappointed since I dressed up for the occasion, wearing a short, flimsy dress, sexy underwear, stockings and high-heeled sandals. I was ready to seduce or be seduced.
One of the waiters was giving me the eye. He was rather cute, but was a bit short. At that moment, I was playing with my food, twirling the pasta with my fork but not really eating. My knife accidentally fell under the table. The waiter quicky approached me and said "Don't worry, I'll get it". He lifted the edge of the table cloth and went under the table. I was expecting him to come out any moment. But to my surprise, he stayed under the table. I was wondering what the was doing there, when i felt his hands caressing the foot of my crossed leg.
I was prepared to tell him off, but changed my mind, his rough, callused hands were running against my hose, but the massage felt good. Later on he gently pulled off my high-heeled sandal. I felt something wet and warm on my toes. He was licking them! He proceeded to suck them, one by one, through the hose. Next, I felt his lips and tongue on the sole of my foot. By this time I was getting very excited. I gently uncrossed my legs to give him access to my steaming crotch.
He gently parted my legs with his head, kissing the insides of my thighs, going upwards . Then to my disappointment, he stopped. I thought it was all over, I could feel the trail of saliva on my foot and thighs cooling off. Then, he gently lifted my other foot and removed my other shoe. Then, he genlty pulled off each of my stockings. I helped him each time by lifting my legs to make it easier for him. Then, I felt him genlty parting my now bare legs with his hands. He resumed kissing the insides of my thighs.
By then, I was so aroused I knew there was a damp spot in the crotch of my panties, and the musky smell of my excitement was wafting to his nose. I felt his hands go to the my hips, then gently tugged at the elastic of my panties. I eagerly helped him by lifting my ass from the seat. Finally, he had removed by damp panties. Again, he parted my legs by gently pushing his head between my knees. licking, kissing his way upwards. I shivered when he licked the sides of my pussy. Then his fingers gently parted the lips and proceeded to lick and suck with such fervor, I gripped the edges of the table to steady myself! I didn't care if anybody saw the aroused, contorted expression on my face, they were busy doing the stupid chicken dance anyway.
Then the first wave of my orgasm hit me! I bit my lips to keep from screaming. My hands were gripping the edge of the table so hard the table cloth bunched up. I came again and again, each time with such intensity I thought I was going to faint! With my eyes closed, I saw multi-colored lights exploding! I gripped the man's head between my legs and touched his forehead with my hand to make him stop licking and sucking, my pussy was sore, and my clitoris had become so sensitive it hurt. He stopped, and I sighed with relief. My very first orgasm and it was a multiple one! I felt drained, weak kneed.
Meanwhile, the people were returing from the dance. I panicked. Then the waiter came out from under the table, holding the knife, with a sheepish grin on his red face. His hair was mussed up and there were wet spots around his mouth. He said to me "The knife's all dirty, let me get you another one". When everyone had gotten back to their seats and no one seemed to have noticed anything unusual, I heaved a sigh of relief and under the table, I straightend my skirt and groped for my shoes with my bare feet.
After the reception, while in a car with some guests, I smiled, remembering what had happened, and could not help myself from giggling at the thought that under the table, in the restaurant, I left my damp panties and stockings!

Today's idiom: break a leg
Meaning: good luck!
Origin: The phrase as we know it today refers to theatre, apparently originating in the States. The original meaning behind the phrase is up for speculations. One theory is that "break" refers to breaking the line of the legs to bow or curtsy, another is that "leg" refers to the curtain and this phrase is talking about receiving a curtain call, while another theory is that it refers to having one's "big break" in show business. A popular – likely incorrect – theory is that this phrase refers to when John Wilkes Booth broke his leg jumping onto the stage after assassinating President Lincoln. The earliest printing of the phrase in reference to theatre is found in The Charleston Gazette in 1948.

For John, BLUF: The elites need to be careful. When they ignore the vast majority they get into trouble. Nothing to see here; just move along.
This is from Bloomberg and the author is Columnist Adam Minter.
Here is the lede:
Nobody would ever mistake the Chinese Communist Party for a fleet-footed, democratic organization responsive to public opinion. But over the decades it's shown a capacity to recognize when political winds are shifting and has been willing to accept outside advice and solutions. That's changing under President Xi Jinping. China's leadership has grown increasingly isolated and distant from citizens, calling into question whether it can truly identify with the needs of a young and dynamic population.So, is there anything that looks familiar here? If you picked a national elite that neither knows nor trusts the People you are on the nose. Exactly.
And our elites doesn't trust the People either.

I am looking for my place in the new new normal. Yes, I am still a homeschooling mom for at least the next 2 1/2 years unless the youngest graduates early. Whether or not I will continue to be a medical transcriptionist/editor is in question. I have been applying for other jobs, but have had no luck yet, no response at all yet. I'm trying to find my footing after a year of some very difficult physical issues, joint pain making it very difficult for me to walk at times. At the recommendation of the bloggers at The Common Room, I bought some Dr. Christopher's Complete Tissue and Bone supplement and surprisingly, it has really helped. I still have some knee pain, but the all over joint pains are fading. It's weird and unexpected. So anyway, the things that I was focused on in 2013, finding a solution to mom's issues and trying to deal with my physical pain may be in the past. I fervently hope so. Mom seems okay and my joints are getting better. So now, what? I need to figure out a career path and enjoy my last 2 years of homeschooling. And then, what? what? what? I have no idea. I have had some plans but they all seem to have fallen through.
Last week I was reading blogs and I found a list of book recommendations. I got a couple of them from the library, 1000 gifts by Ann Voskamp and a book about being an astronaut called An Astronaut's Guide to Life on Earth by Chris Hadfield. I started trying to read 1000 Gifts and though it is beautiful and poetic, it just does not suit my reading style. I keep skipping over the poetic parts and then find that it is all poetic parts and I've gone through several pages without getting anything out of it. In theory, it's a great book about being thankful for all the little things in life, but the writing style is just not one I can get my teeth into.
I'll let you all know about the astronaut book.

Yellow SS Vert?
Hello all,
I'm going to look at a new 2011 2SS/RS yellow convertible in the morning. Yes it's a 2011 still on the lot, lol. The guys that own the dealership do pretty good on trading and dealing, and I'm going to see what kind of a deal I might could strike. Those of you with yellow, how do you like it? Does it ever get old to you? I would probably plasti dip the wheels, put some black GFX on and hockeu stripes IF I got it.
Also, with the 2011 verts, anything in particular I should look for?

How bout those of us without yellow, I wish my car was yellow or summit white, and I'm serious, I think that yellow is sharp
I want to say something at is not at all meant to be negative, but constructive. My concerns about the car would be what mileage is on it and how it has been driven, test driven or by salesmen. Also if it has been sitting outside for that long and not properly cared for. So nothing really your going to be able to tell by how many miles is on it, plus it'll have the same factory warranty, so whatever, but look really closely all over the car looking for paint damage.
And, if it has a few miles or any kind of paint imperfections, use that to drive that price down and get you a great deal on a cool car. That's my word on it.
I am way surprised it is till sitting there. A dealership near me finally got tired of a 2012 ZL1 and sent it to auction. I wish I could have checked the VIN on it, I'll always wonder what happened to that car.
Best of luck to you screwing the sales manager out of money!

Its a toss up for me, yellow or green. Both colors really pop. I had never heard of a green vert and my friend already owned a 2010 LT, so I bought Silver.
Now I do not own a yellow but my friend has owned one since 2010.
First off people are going to constantly be pointing and looking at your car. Be prepared for finger prints and smug marks on the glass. Seriously! I know that Camaro's have been out for a few years now, but people still flag Dave down, ask him about his car. and KIDS LOVE that car. Just be OK with the fact that a yellow Camaro is going to be referred to as "bumble bee" by 99% of the public.
and this color stands out, people see that yellow from a very long ways away on the highway. The car sticks out in a parking lot as well.
I have found that its an easy color to keep clean and even if it gets a little dirty the car still looks good. Just the yellow does not "pop" as much if you get it dirty, say driving it in the rain.
Personally I think yellow needs something to break up the colors, black strips look great on this color. I have seen white but I liked the matte black better.
Here is a picture of my car with Dave's car at a wedding in Jan 2013. You can see even beside another Camaro, the yellow Camaro still stands out. Also both cars are a little dirty, since we drove about 20 miles in mild winter weather with some rain. And they both still look photo great.
If you want a car that will get you lots of attention, yellow is awesome. If you have Agoraphobia (fear of crowds) or Anthropophobia (fear of people) I recommend staying away from yellow!

I've had mine for a couple of months now. Yellow is definitely an attention getter. The funny thing is the reaction from kids that have grown up with the Transformers movie. I can't tell you how many times I've seen a kids eyes light up while saying "Bumble Bee".
It's easy to spot in a parking lot too.

One other thing...SOME verts had top issues before a seemingly final fix came out in Feb. 2012. Not every one had an issue, but those that did had a lot of problems with GM owning up to it and taking care of it. Another post this morning talked about a 2011 vert for sale. Just be cautious. I have had no issues with my 2013, but this was after the fix came out. If possible, get the dealer to warranty this for you. Explain that you know about the top issues of the past and see if they'll agree to just REPLACE the top for you should you have any issues. (As opposed to going through their steps to try before replacing the top.)
Hope it works out...driving the vert is a BLAST.

Many 2011 convertibles have had some top issues so look over the top carefully and make sure any top TSB has been done. Look for rub marks or holes over the driver and passenger door area. Not all are bad but inspect carefully. The GM extened warranty does not cover the top.
Some have had total top replacements several times and a lot of problems. Others like myself have had minor issues like rub marks the TSB fixed and I have also had the 5th bow break on mine. It was fixed under the factory warranty period. If you get it and do have top issues see if your dealer can get GM to extend the top warranty. I did this and got 4 years added from the date of my 5th bow replacement. I love mine and would buy it again so don't let horror stories stop you from getting it if it's a good deal. I will tell you the convertibles still attract a lot of compliments where ever I take it.

The only reason I got a camaro was because it came in yellow. I also like summit white alot too, would have settled for that no problem.
...bottom line is if you like a car that stands out, then you'll love the color.

Hey guys sorry I never responded. I went with my dad today and took it on a good test drive. Here's the details:
Loved it, after I actually played around with it I felt the power. I like it, after going from it to my 6, I can definitely tell a difference. The 6 is still a quick car but the SS felt a little tighter and gave a bit more pull, and I absolutely am in love with that sound.
The car has 125 miles on it. It was empty when I got in it so the dealer gave me a ticket to go up the road and put some in, I put in premium.
The only complaints is that the wind noise is a little loud, I'm assuming that is from the fact that its a convertible? I noticed too in mine you can floor it and once you hit 60-70 and let off you'll coast smoothly. In the vert when I let off I felt a tiny bit of a jerky halt before it started coasting smoothly. The Brembos were amazing. It drove the same yet I could feel the difference when I hammered down on it.
There was also a small crack in the window, I'd have to get that fixed.
Bottom line, it's a 2011 and no incentives. My 2011 has everything you could ask for in one and it has 30,000 miles. They're asking $13,800 difference. That's not terrible, but as soon as I sign, I have a 2 year old car. I saw a used 2012 with only 20k miles selling for 31k, and they're asking 41k for theirs. It doesn't seem like a bad deal, but it's not 100% what I want. I thought, you know if I could trade for 8-9k, I would prob pull the trigger. I'm still looking!!

I think 41k for what will soon be a 3 yr old model car is way too high. Even if it was never registered I personally would pass on it at that price.

You're talking about them needing to come down $3000-$4000 to make a eeal. I'd have flat said what you told us to the salesman and left. Maybe motivate to call you and make the deap. But as far as the wind noisr, maybe its normal. Go test drive a '13 vert and see if its the same just for a reference point. And no matter what, if its a new car it needs to look new so they would need to fix thst window, at no cost to you. But don't bring that up until after a deal is done.
But if you'd be happier looking for something newer then that is what you have to do.

If your going to spend the money, get exactly what you want. Even if it is a little more money then you planned on, it will be well worth it and you'll be completely satisfied. So find the perfect car for you.

$41k for it is about at invoice, perhaps $500-1000 below ... which is not a good deal for a car that when you roll of the lot will be a 3 year old car. On top of it all, you specifically stated that "it's not 100% what I want". I would recommend taking a pass on the car and find what you want.
For at most a couple thousand more, I am sure the dealer (or a different one) could locate a car that fits your wants 100% and be a 2013 model that will have the new top designs implemented.
To give an idea of value, I looked at trading in my 2011 convertible last summer on a ZL1 convertible. MSRP on my car was $44,215, it had about 22,000 miles (which is about $1500 or so of value at sale ... verses 200 miles) ... dealer would only give $27k for it (based on auction value). This was far too low for me as the appropriate value should have been around $31k.
So, if my car had only 200 miles on it, the "value would be around $32-33k for trade and around $36k for retail.
If you expect to keep the car forever, the value difference 2-3 years (or 5-6 years) from now won't matter ... but if you do expect to trade it in, the age of the car WILL matter and you will have a hit to your trade value.
Try not to get caught up in the game a lot of dealers use - switching focus away from price and trying to sell on what it would change your payment to, etc. Also make certain you know how much dealer "document" fees would be ... good dealers will not add a doc fee, bad ones charge $150+.
I hope ya find what you are really wanting and enjoy it (whether it is this car, another, or the one that you already have!)

Older son came home from work last night all-a tremble. "Mom," he says, "you've got to ease my mind about something that happened this morning in school. I've been thinking about it...all day."
Turns out he got an award at school and later there was a talent show and he got one of the last tickets although the show had only fifteen minutes to go. So he figured, why not? So in he goes. And turns out there's a raffle with the tickets. The raffler-picker (or whatever you call her) dipped her hand into the box and took out a ticket, called a number. Waited. Repeated number. Person wasn't there. Took out another ticket. Called a number. Waited. Repeated number. Person wasn't there. Took out another ticket. Son heard all the numbers on his ticket being read except the last one. He wondered if he should walk the long road ahead to claim the prize. What if he was an idiot, etc? Folks upfront might laugh at him. Raffler repeated number again. Yep, it was his number. He had won $200. And we really coulda used the money. But he was afraid of walking upfront but was still nervous...and just couldn't do it. Some guys who disliked him were upfront and none of his friends were around. As he pondered whether he should go or not, the raffler-picker lady called out a new name. He let the money go. He was existentialistically-stressed about it all day. Why had such a thing happened? Had he been an idiot? Was this just bad luck dogging his steps?
It reminded me of another time when some weirdo technical glitch happened with my phone just when I was about to win a radio program giveaway.
The kid was so weirded out I had to say...
Well son remember when my friend the singer always bought a lotto ticket and the one night she didn't buy the ticket was the night she won. Remember? She said everything kept telling her to buy the ticket as she usually did and when night fell she kept thinking, "did I forget to do what I was supposed to do?" Then the next morning she was sooo nauseated when she saw the numbers and realized they were her numbers? And she was in bed for a week. Son, maybe God made her not buy that lottery ticket. All the bad family issues that pop up with winning lottery tickets. And it's possible that if you had taken the winning money those weirdo enemies of yours might have jumped you and taken the money. Maybe God protected you.
I said, "yes, maybe it's not that you weren't listening to God but that you were."
"Yes," he said, "and none of my friends were there to walk with me back to my car."
Ah, the things we moms have to do. Am not sure if I said all this to ease his spirit...or if I really believed it. But it gave him peace.
Well, okay, the same weirdo thing kinda happened to me today. I'm home all day and made absolutely no phone call. And the very moment I made the phone call....wouldn't you know..an important call came in.
This kind of stuff happens not always..but often enough to make one really ponder what exactly luck is...and what fortune--misfortune...or God's timing is. I just have to decide that my times are in God's hand.
This will be a blog for Christians, for people who are part of a minority, for writers. I'm a poet, essayist, devotionalist, reviewer and writer of speculative fiction.Let God be true...and every man a liar.

PROTEST AGAINST PRIVATIZATION OF PMPML and PROCUREMENT OF AC BUSES
July 30, 2009 Leave a comment
Dated: 30 July 2009
Editors of All Pune Newspapers
PROTEST AGAINST PRIVATIZATION OF PMPML and PROCUREMENT OF AC BUSES
Lokayat is organizing a protest demonstration at PMC Corporation Bus Stand against the proposals of PMC and PMPML management to take steps towards the privatization of PMPML and also against the proposal to procure 200 AC buses. These steps would be disastrous for the smooth running of the City's public transportation system, and would lead to further growth of traffic congestion and pollution in the city.
Date: Thursday, 30 July, 2009
Time: 6.45 pm
Venue: Corporation bus stand
Kindly send a reporter and photographer to cover the above protest, which needs to be supported if the city is to survive.
in solidarity,
Neeraj Jain

Aadhi - Odiye vittathu
[Pic Courtesy:Tamilmurasu]
As I said, Aadhi ran for 100 days and still running. It's not to tarnishing the image of Vijay. Just to give awareness, that we should not stick on the number of days of film. And it should be noted that, Aadhi can't be compared with Chandramukhi which is running beyond 375 days in Chennai Shanthi theatre.

Heavy rainfall overnight and into this morning has caused flooding
concerns for Lake County. The Lake County Stormwater Management Commission has
changed our flood status to red, meaning major flooding is occurring in
Lake County this morning.
Reports indicate that over the last 24 hours, Lake County has
received in the range of 1.1 to 6.5 inches of rain. Lake County officials
are working together to assist local communities in response to flooding. We
are currently monitoring weather forecasts because the threat of more severe
weather and continued heavy rains will continue throughout the day. Many water
storage areas are full, or over-capacity, and additional rain will continue to
cause problems.
The Fox River and Des Plaines River are projected to be at upper
moderate flood levels based on current rainfall. We will continue to monitor
throughout the day as we anticipate additional rainfall here in Lake
Many roadways are impacted with water on the pavement, leading to
road closures. This is making travel difficult through many areas of the
county. For updated road conditions, please visit Lake County PASSAGE at www.lakecountypassage.com. It is

Detective Stephanie Chalice has a new book coming out. It's actually the 6th in the series of Chalice thrillers by Lawrence Kelter, not including her 3 great backstory novels. Her newest story will be released on August 25th so we'd like to share with you some insight into the smart, beautiful, snarky, crime fighter by way of her mother – and 50 Shades of Grey.
Ma: "You never smoked, right?"
Chalice: "Ma! How can you ask a question like that? You know how I feel about smoking."
Ma: "Well now, sure … I mean when you were a teenager. All kids sneak cigarettes."
Chalice: "No. Never."
Ma: "You're telling the truth?"
Chalice: "Yes!"
Ma: "Okay, I believe you, but I know about you and Frankie Bono."
Chalice: Oh shit. Here it comes. "What are you talking about?" Damn, I feel like I have one of those cat who ate the canary expressions on my face.
Ma: "Don't you BS me, Stephanie Marie Chalice. I knew all about it."
Chalice: Should I deny it? Nah, what the hell for? "How did you know?"
Ma: "Stephanie, Do you think I was born yesterday? Do you think I didn't see what they wrote about you in your high school yearbook? Bright and beautiful, she always makes the scene, but look out boys, she's Frankie's queen."
Chalice: "Jesus, you saw that?"
Ma: Chuckles. "Saw it? Your father and I had some of our biggest laughs over it."
Chalice: "So why didn't you say something?"
Ma: "Because you broke up with him soon afterward. But I knew."
Chalice: She knew? How could she have known? I'm a cop's daughter—I've always been careful to cover my tracks. "You're full of it."
Ma: "I'm full of it?"
Chalice: "You don't know anything. You're making it up."
Ma: "You think you and your father were the only detectives in the house? It rubs off, you know. I've got you dead to rights."
Chalice: "Seriously?"
Ma: "Francine Delgado's mother told me all about it. Francine used to follow the two of you home from school every day. She had such a crush on Frankie. Her mother said that she used to cry herself to sleep every night."
Chalice: "Francine Delgado?"
Ma: "Yes."
Chalice: "Little Francine with acne?"
Ma: "Yes!"
Chalice: "No wonder she hated me."
Ma: "Don't feel too bad. She just married a football player, someone on the New York Jets."
Chalice: "You're kidding?"
Ma: "Well, it's true. She must've found a good dermatologist, because I saw her wedding picture and she looked beautiful."
Chalice: "Really? That's nice. I'm so happy for her."
Ma: "Speaking of marriage, when are you and Gus going to make it official? You're wasting time."
Chalice: "Soon."
Ma: "You'd better make it very soon, before Francine Delgado's mother starts calling you the puttana cop."
Chalice: "She wouldn't?"
Ma: "Oh yes she would. That woman carries a grudge like no one else, and she knows how to gossip. You made her daughter miserable, and I think she wants revenge."
Chalice: "Oh let her talk. Who cares?"
Ma: "I care. You don't live in the neighborhood anymore. You think I want to hear things like that?"
The doorbell rings
Ma: "Who the hell is that?
Chalice: "That's probably Gus. You can ask him yourself."
Chalice opens the door to find her partner and boyfriend Gus.
Gus Lido:"What's wrong?"
Chalice: "Are you going to marry me or what? People are starting to talk."
Gus Lido: "Talk about what? Who's talking?"
Chalice: "You're in deep shit. Mrs. Delgado called me a puttana."
Gus Lido: "She what?"
Chalice: "The talk around town is that I'm a big slut."
Ma: "It didn't help any that you and Frankie Bono played grab-ass in the twelfth grade."
Chalice: "I've had enough. I'm going to have a martini and read a book."
Ma: "Which one?"
Chalice: "The one about the ingénue and the alcoholic, Fifty Shades of Grey Goose. This interview is over!"

So I finally got a load of the new trailer for "Avatar", along with the rest of the Internet.
First things first, the next person who greets complaints about the story with "you need to see it in 3D" gets a punch to the balls. If the script blows, 3D isn't going to do anything for it. And, as much as it kills me to say this, boy does this trailer make it look like this movie blows.
I have to ask, who really wrote this movie? Ed Zwick? This whole "going among the other culture and being their Jesus" is his usual shtick. No way James Cameron actually wrote this movie, with its cliche plot and cliche dialogue. I'm also wondering how nobody noticed this entire plot is essentially furry porn. Think about it: you go to sleep as a human, wake up as a way more awesome cat-man, meet a cat-chick, and bone. Seriously, hands up everybody who DOESN'T think Sam Worthington stays a cat-man at the end of the movie.
That's about all I'm going to say about the trailer, aside from the fact that it feels the need to remind everybody of every hit James Cameron has ever made. Now let's talk about its box office.
$600 million worldwide, at minimum. Probably more like $800 million. At the very least, this has the visual goods to be popular eye candy, and Cameron waited until "Titanic" was out of everybody's mind, so people are rooting for him again. And $800 million is great in absolute terms.
Unfortunately, this movie cost anywhere between $250 million to $315 million to make. In fact, there are rumors going around that it cost $400 million, and that's before advertising, prints, and all those other expenses. In fact, add those in and I'm not sure Fox is escaping with a price tag of less than $400 million all told.
In other words, "Avatar" is going to have to do "Dark Knight" level business to make money in theaters. My estimate means that if they're REALLY lucky, they'll break even. Yeah, yeah, Cameron made "Titanic", but this isn't "Titanic." "Titanic" largely made its money on teenage girls going to see it forty times, and basically being a cheesy old-movie romance with a James Cameron disaster movie stapled on. Who's going to show up and see "Avatar" forty times, aside from furries?
OK, one more bit about the trailer: the characters are cartoons, the dialogue is terrible, and the movie looks like furry porn crossed with "Ferngully".
But that shot of the Snidely Whiplash bad guy casually drinking coffee as they fire missiles into a village is pretty damn cool.

As of this morning, I was about 1000 words behind on my novel. Now I'm caught up! I used some class time to write, and my students were very cooperative by working on their own novels. I also showed them clips of Stephenie Meyer's Oprah interviews about her writing process and, of course, the Twilight series. Yes, I admit I was feeding the anticipation of the movie release of "New Moon" but also sharing writing inspiration from another writer. (OK, she's a very famous writer, and we're not famous, but we're still writers.)
I haven't mentioned lately my "academic push-in" to an 8th grade inclusion ELA class. My role is essentially in "instructional support" capacity, and the class already has two other teachers - the ELA teacher and the inclusion teacher. We've become quite the co-teaching team! I've been able to provide some direct instruction and materials for a classroom novel unit (The Giver) and the corresponding writing prompt (personal narrative). I firmly believe the key to our collaboration is absolute trust among the 3 of us - of course trust that we have the students' best interests in mind, but ALSO trust that we have each other's best interests in mind.
I'm still reading Brisingr, no lie. More than halfway through, but not by much.

Baby Laura wants to play.
Baby Laura doesn't want to poo-poo because she cries.
Then she wanted to drink some milk.
Then she likes to read Challenge of the Superfriends.
Then she wants to play with me.
Then she likes to color with me.
She wants to play Legos with me.[1]
And Laura and Harrison likes our family.
Me and Laura like to play with the pirate ship and the castle[2] and the costumes. Laura dresses as Wonder Woman and I dress as Optimus Prime.[3]
Then Mommy and Daddy want to have a party with a Bumblebee cake.
Harrison will have an Optimus Prime toy and Mommy will have a grey Transformer toy and Daddy will have a Bumblebee toy and Laura will have a purple Transformer toy.[4]
Then she wants to do some Pincredibles papers.[5]
Harrison has the Lego Star Wars game and Laura has the Indiana Jones Lego game.
Then she wants to play some guitar with me.
The End
* This began as song lyrics, but somewhere around the mention of Legos, he decided it would be better as a story. I've retained much of the grammar and the cadence of the sentences. The footnotes, although in Harrison's first person voice, are my own notes.
[1] Although Mommy and Daddy won't let her because she would choke on the pieces.
[2] Again, not allowed.
[3] I don't have an Optimus Prime costume.
[4] Presumably because she's a girl and that's what color Transformer girls get.
[5] The Incredibles coloring sheets.

Our first big event - the London Youth Games.
All the pictures are here.
Keir can we have some results here. And could you post the details of the next grass track race.
If anybody is interested, this is where the club run went on Sunday.
2 comments:
The team did well and achieved the target objective of enjoying the occasion and finishing in the top ten team standings out of thirty two entries. However this has been slightly dampened by the news that our result won't add to Hackney's points tally because we had made too many changes in the squad from the team that had to be submitted to the organisers(according to the rules) three months ago...not the most helpful rule I must say!ReplyDelete
Never-mind we had a good day, recorded some very respectable times at our first attempts and learnt a lot about cycle racing in the process - I'm very proud of the squad, saw some fine new talent in action and I look forward to growing from this point onwards to even greater achievements.
Thank you and good job well done.

Stylish Toddler Room Decor and Modern Nursery Ideas
Whether you're expecting a new baby or your little one is ready to move up to his or her own room, decorating can be a lot of fun. It's easy to get carried away, however. With so many Toddler Room Decor and modern nursery ideas available, you may find that your imagination is bigger than your space or your budget. Thankfully, it's still possible to put together an attractive, practical nursery or children's room even if you don't have unlimited resources. The following will help get your creative juices flowing, then head over to Baby's Own Room to create the room or nursery of your dreams.
Know Your Colors
In any decorating scheme; color plays the most important role in setting the mood and look of the room. By selecting a color scheme in advance, you'll be able to keep your nursery or toddler's room looking beautiful and well-designed. Choosing furniture, bedding or other accessories without a pre-selected scheme could result in something a lot more haphazard.
Modern – Hot Pink & Cheetah Print
Neutral – Browns, Tan, Green and Soft Blues
If you're setting up Toddler Room Decor, remember that younger children often want a change when it's time for a room of their very own. If your child had a very traditional pink or blue nursery, he or she might want something a little more grown up.
Two-tone – Black & White Damask
Focus on Bedding
Most modern nursery ideas focus heavily on crib sets and other bedding. After all, the bedding is one of the most important and constant objects in the room. Once you've selected your colors, choose coordinating bedding, then work from there to pick out accessories. Designing the room this way makes it much easier to create an attractive, well-designed environment that both kids and adults will find appealing.
Choose Versatile Furniture
The best furnishings for a nursery are those that can serve another purpose once your baby grows up a little. Consider convertible cribs that can be used as toddler beds or as desks and workstations by an older child. Changing tables and storage units can perform more than one function, too; the best turn into book or toy storage for preschoolers and elementary-age children.
No matter what kind of tastes, budget or space you have available for your nursery or your toddler's room, you can put together a beautiful decorating scheme. Simply take a little time and think about the overall look and feel you'd prefer, then build the room up in small steps from there. With a little bit of advance consideration, you're sure to get the perfect look.Read More
Tips for Planning a Baby Shower
When you hear of the news that a friend or family member is pregnant, you should start planning the baby shower. First things first, the new mother to be will decide on a nursery theme and which decor will be used. Lots of mothers to be like to find out the gender of the baby for better planning, where others enjoy the surprise! Once all the details are in order, you can begin shopping for affordable designer crib bedding and other fun decorations.
The best time for a baby shower is when the weather is not too hot or too cold. Try to use a church fellowship hall or your home for the location. An afternoon baby shower is ideal because everyone will have time to eat lunch before arriving. Decorate the room with appropriate colors if you know the sex of the baby, if the mother is expecting a surprise yellows and greens are great neutral colors. Try to stick to the nursery decor when shopping for shower decorations to tie the entire experience together.
Get a few friends to help you with the shower by giving everyone a job, delegate snacks and drinks to one friend, and employ others to be in charge of decorations. Then you can focus on the invitations, which will need to be sent out at least two weeks in advance and be sure to include where the new mom to be is registered to make gift buying easy. By entrusting a committee to get the details of the shower nailed down it becomes more enjoyable for everyone and feels more like a team effort. Try to have everything set up about an hour before the shower begins.
Need to buy a great gift for a shower? Looking for nursery decor or a great baby bedding collection stop by Baby's Own Room, we offer great prices and free shipping, on all our products no order minimums.Read More
Lively Turquoise Crib Bedding Makes a Nursery Fun
Once upon a time, parents-to-be didn't have many decisions to make when it came to decorating the nursery. Most furniture was white and most crib bedding and soft furnishings were either pink, blue or yellow. Modern parents are a lot more style-conscious, however, and that extends to the nursery. Bold colors and decorative elements are a popular way to make your child's environment fun and exciting, both for the new baby and for adults.
A Focus on Turquoise
Turquoise and teal are among the newest options for nursery decorating, and they provide a huge range of options for parents. For instance, you can pair turquoise crib bedding with traditional white furniture for a sweet, classic look or use it along with bright red walls and dark gray furniture for a gender neutral nursery that's really stimulating.
If you'd like something a little softer, consider mixing turquoises and teals with other shades in the blue-green family for a tone-on-tone nursery. This kind of color scheme is great for parents who want a sky and clouds or undersea theme for their baby's room. You can also add a feminine touch by combining teal crib bedding with soft pinks, muted lavender tones or light yellow.
Using Bold Colors Well
Especially in the nursery, it's important not to take over the room with too many bright tones. That means you'll need to use brilliant turquoise or teal elements carefully. Avoid painting the whole room with a very strong shade of turquoise unless you have plenty of light, muted tones to balance it.
Many parents actually stick to using smaller elements, such as pillows, caddies and wall hangings, to add a safe, comforting touch of color without the risk of overwhelming the viewer. Generally speaking, the brighter and bolder the tone, the smaller it should be in the context of the entire room. This is the best way to keep your turquoise nursery feeling exciting and inviting.
Where to Start
If you're interested in introducing this appealing color into your nursery decorating scheme but don't know where to start, you'll need to stick to small changes. Major nursery overhauls can be wonderful if they're done correctly, but they can be hard to fix if you make an error.
Instead of ripping up the carpet and repainting right away, start out by thinking about the final look and feel you'd like for the room. Head to Baby's Own Room and check out the array of bedding, pillows and other small accessories you can buy to accent your child's nursery. Once you find a few elements you feel happy with, you can move on to bigger and more exciting decisions.Read More
Black & White Crib Bedding
I made a new lens if you haven't already checked out our great selection of black, white crib bedding at Baby's Own Room then check out this lens. Black, White Crib Bedding it has a lot of great decor ideas if you are looking to create a classic black & white nursery.Read More

Now come on. How can anyone not like a song that starts with those words?
I'm not sure what I was thinking when I bought the Motorhead tape. I think I was thinking, Hey, Lemmy used to be in Hawkwind, so let's try this out. Unfortunately, my musical pursuits were steering me in another direction, and I didn't have unlimited funds to buy everything I wanted.
So this is the only Motorhead album I have, but I really like it. Someday I'll get some of their other stuff, I promise. This tape was always part of my essential road music. I'm sure everyone has a special collection to listen to while driving, and this was in mine.
The Toad tape was purchased because I had a bunch of their CDs and noticed this older album on a clearance rack.
These are on the docket for today, and maybe something else later. I'm going to try and work my way through my cassette shelf before I go back to ripping vinyl.
It occurred to me today that it might be amusing (for me, at least) to make some posts about albums in my collection that I do not intend to rip. There are several that I just don't know why I ever bought.
