Tag Competitors Square Off In Singles Action On May 8th!
April 27, 2010 · Print This Article
For the better part of the last 8 months, Dave Manzo & Jack Night of Nightlife have been the team to beat in CLASH Wrestling. In fact, with the Friends & H3RD recently disbanding, many argued that Nightlife had no peers, no challengers to their Tag Team Championship. This obviously was not the case as the unlikely pair of The Wreckingball & Will Vendetta shocked the wrestling world by becoming CLASH Tag Team Champions. Wreck N' Roll are the new holders of the title, while Nightlife are now on the outside looking in.
Nightlife have petitioned CLASH officials for a rematch at Fight Against Cancer 3. With a huge Tag Team Main Event already signed, CLASH higherups have chose to hold off on Nightlife's rematch, thus on May 8th in Dearborn, MI it will be 1/2 of Wreck N' Roll vs. 1/2 of Nightlife when The Wreckingball battles Dave Manzo! Join us at Fight Against Cancer 3 on May 8th in Dearborn, MI! Tickets are available now, remember buy your tickets in advance to save money and get the best possible seats!

Senegal v Algeria: Morale is high, insists Gourcuff
Christian Gourcuff insists morale within Algeria's squad is high ahead of their Africa Cup of Nations Group C decider with Senegal.
The two African heavyweights go head-to-head in Malabo on Tuesday, with all four teams in the pool still able to progress to the last eight.
After their opening-game win over South Africa, Algeria suffered a 1-0 defeat to Ghana and reports began to surface of altercations within the 23-man squad.
However, coach Gourcuff believes his players are fully focused on ensuring they do not fall at the group stages for a second successive tournament.
"It is certain that in a group, there is always something going on, but the relations are excellent and there is a great atmosphere," said the Frenchman.
"There is a lot of unity and solidarity and this is priceless. Now there are totally false things that are said here and there and I leave full responsibility to reviewers.
"We will address this game against Senegal without calculation and we'll do everything to win. We will have time to recover and prepare as it should be for this very important game for us."
Algeria are looking to make the quarter-finals for the ninth time, and will be keen to ditch the tag of 'nearly' men, having lifted the title only once in 15 attempts.
Their chances have been blighted by an injury to star striker Islam Slimani. The Sporting forward suffered a muscle problem against South Africa and was only able to play 34 minutes last time out.
With Slimani's fitness still in doubt, Gourcuff may opt to start Ishak Belfodil alongside Yacine Brahimi for a second game, although there may be a rare start for El Arbi Hillel Soudani.
Senegal currently sit top of the group with four points, but they know an early exit is still possible should they lose and Ghana beat South Africa.
Group C was highlighted as the toughest to escape from prior to the tournament, and with one game to go those predictions look accurate.
A point would be enough to guarantee a top-two finish for Alain Giresse's side, but he knows Senegal must play to win to avoid becoming an early casualty.
"Nothing is settled," he said. "The final day will be critical.
"That shows how difficult a group this is."

So, my Complete Saki book broke the writing up into three categories, Short Stories, Novels & Plays. Thus, thankfully, after spending some time in the posthumous short stories, I'm back to Saki's glory days. This book comes right after his best book of short stories, The Chronicles of Clovis, and it is, in my opinion, the pinnacle of his achievements as a writer. The Bassington of the title is Comus Bassington, a wealthy fop, arrogant, condescending, lazy, altogether, well, unbearable. At first it seems that this book is going to be wholly taken up with lampooning the upper classes, as most of Saki's short stories have been. But this book demonstrates something that none of Saki's short stories has shown in even the slightest: compassion. Empathy even. No mistake, there's still plenty of lampooning of the upper class and the book is as hilarious as anything Saki ever wrote. But as the novel progresses, it finds a strange sadness in the relationship between Comus and his widowed mother Francesca. The book explores the way in which close family relationships fracture under the stress of attempted change; as Comus has grown up, rather than their relationship changing, it has drifted into a sad state of regretted antipathy. But it's in exploring the way in which both mother and son feel regret but also hopelessness in regards to any possible change that the book becomes downright tragic. Comus and Francesca become real, live, breathing characters, something few of Saki's characters have managed before and as the book progresses it becomes sadder and sadder as these two genuinely broken people struggle to reach out to each other, but are unable to do so because of pride and shame and regret. It's really a great tragedy at the end of the day. I really can't recommend this sadly forgotten novel highly enough; if my little trip through Saki's work accomplishes nothing else, it's given me this unforgettable novel and I'm unbelievably grateful. 4 stars.
tl;dr – Saki's comic writing also boasts the tragic story of a mother and son seeking to reconnect; Saki's mockery is as sharp as ever, but there's beautiful sadness this time out as well. 4 stars.

Friday 27/3/09, we left home at 11.30am, fetched kak Yana from ITE Simei terus berdesut to Second Link, raf n nad dah tunggu we all at Gelang Patah.
Reached GP around 1pm if I'm not mistaken, kak Yana tak sempat-sempat tukar her school uniform sampai lah kat Malacca.
1st stop from GP is after Malacca Tol........hubby berkenalan with raf and Mr H.
From there we went straight to the hotel...............bak kata pepatah, aper yg nampak di web tak seindah rupa yg nyata...........
The first words that came out frm hubby mouth, "mak ai hotel cam haunted jer"
And its really menakutkan..........MALACCA CITY RESORT.............it should be called THE HAUNTED MALACCA CITY RESORT.......
at the reception, only us + 2 front desk the empty apartments lounge pun closed the dirty pool yg berlumut ghost town, cant c anybody loitering around children pool, look at the slide
Nad contacted the guy yg responsible to book for us the hotel, after the blah blah blah, pot pet pot pet, at last we managed to collect back our deposit, alhamdulillah.
After all settled, its time for us to go cari makan, kelaparan semacam, we headed to town area and ended makan our late lunch at Tesco, The Chicken Rice Shop............tak sodap, we dont like it.
From Tesco I contacted my BIL yg stayed at Mahkota Hotel. Kebetulan my sis (Aqil Umi) and her family pun went to Malacca for a short holiday, BIL dapat free 2 nights stay kat Mahkota Hotel.
BIL checked for us if there are any rooms available, nasib kiter cam kentang, alhamdulillah, there are rooms available so he reserved for us first and told the recept that we will reach hotel shortly.
From Tesco we all pun bergerak to Mahkota Hotel. Jauh berbeza this time from the Watercity Resort, me n family dah biase stayed kat Mahkota Hotel, n this hotel pun dah memang famous amos at Malacca.
We booked the 3 rooms apartment, syokness habis, raf n hubby pun tak kisah to share with me n nad, so memang lah seronok banget, gempak n gegar satu apartment.
view from our room, Frangipani wing at 17th storey pics from my hp camera, should recky nad or raf blog for a really nice shot from the pro cam
After we unpacked, relaxed dah cukup, we all pun went out to jalan-jalan kat Malacca Town, we went to Dataran Pahlawan, giler tempat ni, banyak branded goods dehhh...tapi jalan jeling-jeling jer, well ader jugak yg we all grabs n bought and some titbits for us to eat kat hotel.
Finished jalan-jalan went back to hotel to take our car..........this time nak cari dinner pulak. Our first day in Malacca dinner at Umbai.............dinner that I cant forget.........sodap giler...........the best Ikan Bakar I ever had...............marvelesssss.....
We left Umbai around 12.30am, berdesut balik to Hotel, keletihan yg amat sangat.
We had already planned our 2nd day outing in Malacca and so on......... TO BE CONTINUE.....

Clay (industrial plasticine) and or digital models are developed from, and along with the drawings. The info from these models are then used to make a full size mock-up of the ultimate design (body in white). With three- and five-axis CNC milling machines, the clay model is first designed in some type of computer program and then "carved" using the machine and large amounts of clay. Even in times of high-class 3d software and exclusive models on ability wall space, the clay model is still the most crucial tool to judge the look of an automobile and therefore used throughout the industry.
Interior design
The stylist accountable for the look of the vehicle interior builds up the proportions, shape, placement, and surfaces for the instrument panel, car seats, door trim panels, headliner, pillar trims, etc. Here the emphasis is on ergonomics and the comfort of the individuals. The procedure here is the identical to with outside design (sketch, digital model and clay model).

The gown is silk. The 'shrug' is flexible resin. I added the earrings.
An intricately designed wig by Ilaria is the crown on this beauty's head.
An optional purchase of Guinevere's gown & shoes in an alternate color is modeled here by Liberty. This fashion came with a lovely bracelet. I added the earrings. The wig is Liberty's original.
Excalibur is the name of this sequined jumpsuit which was the convention fashion gift. I have Star modeling it. She's wearing Viola's wig.
One of my grab bag gifts was Orbit's jacket, modeled here by Savile who is also wearing shorts by Hazelstreet Designs.
On one room shopping foray, I picked up this trio of pieces by the talented YumYum Designs (Miriam.) Modeling is Chaucer wearing a Chewin wig.
The jacket is fully functional in that the zipper works and the buckles buckle. Nothing is there for show!
Look at the attention to detail on the back of this jacket. Amazing.
Coming soon - Morgana!

I completely disagree with this statement. Sure, there might be some die-hards or meatheads that would say this but I think the majority of fans, including the coveted casual fans, would be extremely excited if the Sox made the playoffs several years in a row. Seeing as how this is something that has NEVER happened in the entire existence of this franchise how could one not be excited??
There is nothing, currently, to be excited about with this team. There is no superstar, no can't miss prospect being touted, absolutely nothing to look forward to. The organization seems to be content with how the team is being run and has been pointed out several times already why should they change anything if it keeps being profitable? The organization continues to treat fans like we know nothing or understand nothing about what is going on with the team. The continued lack of direction this team seemingly has is more of a detriment than I think they realize. At least the Cubs have a plan. It might not work in the end but at least they have a direction and their fans at least have some hope for the future. A of now, what do any of us have to look forward to as Sox fans?

When Will Obama Plunge Into Full Campaign Mode?
President Obama's political team is debating when he should plunge fully into campaign mode. While his current public appearances have a sharply partisan cast, most are still considered official events. Jerry Seib has details on The News Hub. Photo: Reuters

A Westminster worker who accused Nigel Evans of sexually assaulting him in a pitch black room said senior managers at parliament could not be trusted when complaints were made about MPs, a court heard.
The plaintiff, who cannot be named for legal reasons, has been giving evidence in the trial of the former Commons deputy speaker, who denies all charges against him. They include rape, indecent assault and sexual assault involving seven men.
The alleged victim said Evans pushed him into a "pitch black" room in a kitchen off the deputy speaker's corridor after a drinking session in the House of Commons Strangers Bar in February 2011.
He told the court: "It was pitch black and then very quickly he kind of came forward and put his arms all over me and tried to kiss me. Then he took my hand and placed it on his erect penis. I felt his lips on mine at that point.
"He touched my crotch, he touched my bum over the top of my clothing. I remember him saying something like 'you're gorgeous'. I didn't say anything because I was in shock."
Later he told the jury: "Then I gathered my senses. I was aware of what was happening and pushed him off."
The man said that Evans approached him a few days later to ask if he was all right.
He told the jury: "Because of how much I liked Nigel I decided to convince myself it was a one-off and on the night he got carried away. He went way over the line but it was a one-off."
"People [working] in parliament don't have confidence in reporting anything about MPs.
"Parliament as an institution and MPs are more concerned about how things appear than what actually happens."
The trial continues.

Hutchison vs. Radnofsky numbers
More campaign finance reports, this time from the Senate race. The time period ended on the last day of June, and covered the preceeding 3 months.
Kay Bailey Hutchison has $7.4 million in cash on hand. She raised $502K (about 60K from PACs), spent $364K.
Barbara Radnofsky, the only announced Democrat, has $349K in cash on hand. She raised $137 and spent $48K.

Our blogger friends on the Left continue to assure that Precinct-Chair-turned-US-Senate-candidate Radnofsky will "surprise" some people in this race.
Maybe we should do an over-under?
I'd be mildly surprised if she exceeds 40% of the vote, and even that number seems high.
Where would PvW commenters put the over-under for surprise?
Posted by kevin whited @ 07/20/05 10:00 AM
Final Score:
Hutchison - 68%
Rad-nof-whatever - 30% (at best)
Sorry, but Conservative, Republican Texas will not elect an urban, liberal jewish Trial lawyer who's not even from here to the U.S. Senate.
And as long as the Texas Democratic Party continues to run candidates liek this, this will continue to be a one party state.

Interior Design
Interior Design Instructor
The Art Institute of California—San Diego, a campus of Argosy University
Have a passion for drawing and design. Jessica Newman , Interior Design Instructor , The Art Institute of California—San Diego, a campus of Argosy University
Was there a defining moment when you knew you were destined to become a creative professional?
I always knew I'd be an artist. I've been drawing my entire life. It just seemed like a natural and obvious fit.
How do you weave your professional background into the classroom experience?
When I first meet students, I show them my portfolio so they can get a sense of my work and who I am as an interior designer. I've worked in large firms, mid-size firms, small firms, and as a freelancer. So I talk about interior design from many points of view to give the students an idea of which type of environment they'd like to work in.
What class assignment exemplifies your approach to teaching and mentoring?
In my Sketch and Ideation class, I begin each session with a 30-minute drawing. We have two cups—one labeled "spaces," the other "styles." The space cup is filled with slips of paper with different types of interior spaces written on them...penthouse living room, exterior courtyard, etc. The styles cup features different motifs like industrial and art deco. Students choose one slip from each cup, then we draw the space and style combination. This exercise helps them in two important ways. First, the only way to get better at drawing is to draw; second, it helps shift their attitude away from focusing only on the outcome of a particular drawing.
How does collaboration contribute to students' success—particularly when students from various programs work together?
In Hospitality Design, we team up with Culinary Capstone students, who come up with an original concept for a restaurant in an international location, including a "bank-ready" business plan. They then pair up with Interior Design students, who work with them to design the space and build a model. The project is capped off with a celebration during the portfolio show, complete with samples from the restaurant's menu.
What's the most important thing you impart to students to help them succeed in class and the real world?
Have a passion for drawing and design.
What's the most critical advice you would offer any student embarking on a creative career?
Take advantage of as many internship opportunities as you can while you're here. It's a great way to see where your skills fit in the industry and get the kind of experience you can't get in a classroom.
Anything else you'd like to share?
I'm a practicing artist who paints cityscapes.

1. Pause and reflect. What have you done to your soul? Your life?
2. Count your blessings. Do not envy others. People envy you too, you know. Everyone has their own ups and downs.
3. Ask Allah for forgiveness. Ask Allah for some peace and quite. If you're lost, do not count on other people. People dissappoint, Ana. When will you learn?
4. Nobody's perfect. You're not perfect. You have too many flaws... Why do you judge others? Yeah, sometimes you couldn't care less... But sometimes there are times when deep in your heart you judge how people live their lives. Don't!
5. This life is too short. The next life is the eternal one. Remember that.
6. Love yourself. Love your children. Children loves their mother unconditionally. Always remember your children need you. Suck it up!
7. Money does not bring happiness. But money helps to lower the burden. Never ever stop making money. Always remember the how great it felt when you can help others.
8. Busy yourself. Stop thinking about the past. Stop wasting time. Past cannot be undone. Live your life!
9. Patience. The main key when raising your kids. Remember your own childhood. Remember why you hated your father? Do you want your children to hate you?? Remember Ana, remember....
10. Nothing is about you anymore. You'll be 30 this year. What have you done to improve yourself? What if you die tomorrow? Will you be missed? Are you ready to meet your Maker?
Think, Ana.
Life is short. Real short.

Hunger exists. Chronic illness exists. Car accidents ( I was recently in one, but it wasn't so bad. I thought I was fine, but one of my doctor friends checked me out, and actually said I needed some work, but that's another story). The recession (that we are supposed to be exiting, but I don't see the end yet in my world). Bad music. Bad film. Expensive gas.
The list goes on….
but not in this entry.
This entry is about when life is beautiful….when you can see life is beautiful. .
23 has been a good year for me. I am only about half way through it, but it is proving to be a beautiful year. Confusing. But beautiful. I've backspaced so many times trying to articulate exactly what it is I want to communicate here. *focus* I want to talk about how I'm growing and developing in my art. I want to talk about my professional career. I want to talk about how Shawnon is on her grind, and the Left Side Poets could be featured in a book fair. I want to talk about having dreams again. I want to talk about performing songs and poems and venturing into dance/acting. I want to talk about how I, unlike Sophia, liked Django but don't like all of the blood that, as usual, comes with the director (Gag). But these are all just buffers and introductions because
mainly, I just want to talk about what a beautiful thing it is for someone to one day appear and help set your world right.
I'm not talking about someone being your whole world (*ahem*idolatry*ahem*)….just someone who helps make it right. Imagine: you have this huge beautiful painting hanging on your wall, an original. Costly. Framed in quality, ornately carved wood.This painting is gorgeous, and it is your favorite style of art. But! It is hanging a tad crooked. No matter how you try to fix it, it just hangs slightly crooked. And then someone comes along and sets it right.
Maybe that analogy only works for people with OCD or who really care about interior design, but work with me here. Do you ever feel like you have more words than you know what to do with? Like, you need to resort to writing sonnets and maybe odes? Like butterflies are nothing, but glitter and confetti trail behind you with every text you send and receive? Like, life is a continuous playlist of India Arie, Eric Benet, Joss Stone, and the like?
Beautiful mutual affection between 2 people still exists, and that is so exciting. I write best when I know down in my joints and marrow that I'm deeply cared for. When The Left Side Poets were coming together in 2008, I was getting to truly know God and his love for the first time. I had so much to write about, and that was fortunate because there was no hanging around the LSP and not writing. We were always sharing what was new with us and our pens. Writing from the overflow of my heart, my peers pegged me the love poet….and it fits.
I believe with all my heart that my handsome gift from God and I would tear each other apart if we tried to make it work without implementing biblical principles, but because we do put those into practice I live every day of my life feeling like it's valentine's day. So this is where I've been: on cloud 9. I have so much more I could say, but it is all so jumbled in my head, I don't want to subject you to any more, but don't you just sometimes feel like you have to tell someone when your life feels so beautiful?

But do thy worst to steal thyself away,For term of life thou art assured mine;And life no longer than thy love will stay,For it depends upon that love of thine.Then need I not to fear the worst of wrongs,When in the least of them my life hath end.I see a better state to me belongsThan that which on thy humour doth depend:Thou canst not vex me with inconstant mind,Since that my life on thy revolt doth lie.O! what a happy title do I find,Happy to have thy love, happy to die! But what's so blessed-fair that fears no blot? Thou mayst be false, and yet I know it not.

Both portraits were painted using high quality Old Holland oil paints on canvas.
The frames were salvaged.
