Some say you cant be with guys because you can not trust them. DONT LISTEN TO THEM!. Sure some guys do that, but that doesnt mean all boys are like that. Dont be scared. The main reason why they are like that is because they have things going on in their life and they just need "love" or a girl to keep them distracted. On another note, for the girls who want a boyfriend but have no clue whatsoever how to get one to notice you. So, for example there is a really cute guy who sits in front of you in history class.You know he is smart, funny and easy to talk to, and you really like him. But your afraid that if you tell him, the whole friendship you had going would be blown!. and plus you want to know what he thinks of you. Here are five easy steps into gathering up your courage, tell him and if he doesnt feel the same....ways to get over it.
1.) I tried this out and i instantly felt comfortable with it. Try to get him alone and just talk with him. Dont touch him or raise your voice, he might get scared. Talk in a soothing voice and maybe just start off with hwo is your day? or something short quick and effective.
2.) After awhile, if his body signs show that he is comfortable with you, try to get into something personal.But its YOU who has to start it off. Say something like" I went through a tough time when my grandad died: its most likely he will respond to that.( i will tell how to read body language on my next blog)
3.) dont go too deep on your first real convo. Just imgaine poking through dirt, looking for something specific, and if you find something save it for the next time you talk.
4.) After awhile(whatever time you feel comfortable) tell him the truth, but start out with something that you like. "___ i like your eyes, i always think they are blue as the sky" as an example,and if he smiles! THATS A GOOD THING! and if he says something back! he likes you!. You may think that is not true but studies show that when you do what i said its a total pointer that he is into you.
5.) This one is for the girls who he just say"no im sorry_____ your really nice but i just dont feel it" First off im sorry you got rejected, but dont worry! there are plenty of guys out there!. All you have to do is nod and say i understand and just move on. Ok?

An effect such as the Zombie can be done badly. That seems to be what the DVD wants to help you
avoid. However, while the information contained is good, it is not the best. Jeff McBride goes
through a great technical class, but does not provide a routine. Not that you should want to copy a
routine, but it would be good to see how he puts the techniques into play. I find Al Schneider dull.
His performances and acting come off with a flat affect. But he does provide a routine and pretty
good instruction. Tommy Wonders section is the shortest with just some tips and no routine. I have
several WGM DVD's and this one is not on par. Treat this DVD as more of a supplement to your Zombie
training and that will give you the proper context. Try and get something with routines so you can
see how the performers integrate their tips and instructions.

I have found this DVD to be very helpful in learning about the techniques required for performing a
smooth Zombie routine. My only wish is that some of the individual moves were shown in slow motion.
But that's a minor complaint. Overall, I would recommend this DVD to anyone interested in Zombie.

I'm a big fan of Zombies in spite of their over-exposure and poor presentation. As Tommy Wonder says
of the trick, "We shouldn't blame the piano for the music played on it." The zombie I got from
Penguin is perfect as is, but I modified it by curving the wire and reworking the cork so it stays
fixed in place.
I bought a second one recently as back up, but am considering a mod which hinges the stick at the top of the ball (on the inside). It's Wonder's idea, and I made one last month with an Xmas ornament. It really makes the ball float more realistically. Anyway, thumbs up on this one as a basic package. The chrome ball is beautiful! Did this review help you?

I have been wanting to include a Zombie Ball routine in my act but realize this is one trick that is
difficult to do well. This DVD is the solution to that problem. Just the information about gimmick
modification is worth the price of the entire DVD. I wasn't looking for a routine to copy, I just
wanted explanations of the basic moves, ins and outs, and silk and gimmick management. I got all of
that, and more, just from the Jeff McBride section. I am very pleased with this purchase.

Another great compilation DVD by L&L. This time on the Zombie Ball. The zombie ball is a classic
levitation. Performed poorly, you'll look silly and the audience will catch on. Performed well and
it can be poetry in motion. This DVD features 3 masters of the zombie. Al Schneider wrote the book
on the zombie - literally. He covers the basics from modifying the gimmick to care of the silk.
Jeff McBride takes a deep dive into the various moves that you can do to build a routine. Jeff is a
wonderful teacher. Lastly, the incomparable Tommy Wonder delves into his mind to unlock the secrets
that make the zombie look like modern wizardry. Tommy does not provide a routine but his lecture is
worth the price and then some.

Over the years we have come to the conclusion that our holiday starts as soon as we leave the house on the day of the flight. Although for recent holidays we've enjoyed the planning discussions (usually over a meal with a good wine and a magnificent Malt to complete the evening), the research and the anticipation of countless new experiences to follow.This year our holiday started in earnest around three weeks before we were due to fly as we settled down for our final "planning meeting". Our friends had invited to discuss the "added extras" and she'd thrown herself in to the spirit of the holiday by cooking a Vietnamese meal for us. It smelt and tasted delicious and we're just hoping that we could find that kind of food when we're in Indo China. Certainly my wife, who is not overly courageous when it comes to food, had been somewhat spooked about food in Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos when she watched a recent TV programme on the culinary delights of those three countries. It had been introduced by Gordon Ramsey and some of the food in the programme looked "less than tasty". However, I was excited about the chance to try deep fried insects, something I'd chickened out of trying when we visited China. My wife is consoling herself with the fact that she likes rice!! One of the Sunday papers had run an article on a very similar trip and our reading was getting us in the mood for our vacation. Checking the itinerary I noticed that we'd be checking out the "brewing" of rice whiskey and momentarily I saw an opportunity to bring some back home. However, I was quickly reminded of the "Black Cat" I'd brought back from Thailand. I think the expression is that "it doesn't travel well" and it is certainly no competition for fine Scottish malt. I asked all three of my fellow travellers to mention "Black Cat" to me if I seemed to be tempted!On the day of our flight we left home nice and early so that we could enjoy a decent pub meal on route to the airport (see separate review) and of course this relaxed stop off at a mid-point between home and the airport meant that we'd arrive refreshed at the airport and not have to run through the ordeal of airport food. I know airport restaurants have improved over the years, but it's always a struggle to get a decent table and we always feel a bit under pressure to move on once we've finished our meal. Certainly they don't have the relaxed ambience that we enjoy at The Fox at Souldern.After our leisurely late lunch we headed off to the airport were at a previously arranged point in terminal 3 we meet the chauffeured collection for our car. We've only done this once before, but when there are 4 of you the extra cost of the chauffeur service seems worth the effort. For an extra £20 (that's only a fiver each) our car is collected from us close by the departure entrance and on our return we don't have the hassle of having to wait for the shuttle bus as our car is waiting for us just outside the arrivals block. The company keep a watch on the arrivals time and it's their responsibility to ensure they're waiting for us and not vice-versa. Beats having to wait for the next shuttle bus in the cold. Our next touch of luxury is the extravagant booking of the Airport's executive Lounge. It costs around £17 a head but for that we get to sit in comfort, have access to all the day's papers, enjoy unlimited drinks (tea, coffee, beer, wine and spirits) and nibble on the wide range of snacks that are available. It doesn't take long to work out that the lounge is pretty good value for money and the comfort is inestimably better than that in the main airport.Finally we decided to upgrade on seats from economy to the seats in premium economy. The seats offer a 38 inch pitch are wider and have adjustable headrest and, more importantly, leg and foot rests. This upgrade worked out to be just less than £200 for the return journey and the cost of that was off set against some savings that we'd managed by being flexible with our flight time and travel date (no real hardship there) and opting for a downgrade on our first overnight stay. The latter was insignificant (according to the travel agents) who said that the hotel was still a quality hotel but there was no spa or gym. Well I was gutted at that news!! Especially was I would have used neither!I know that these add-ons result in the price of the holiday increasing but by careful negotiation with the travel agents we" lessened the blow". In reality we were already spending a fair bit on our holiday so these extras seemed a small percentage in the overall value of the holiday. Added to which you can't beat a bit of pampering!!

An Dōsen (Ān Dàoquán; here holding his ears as he bends backwards) acted as medical doctor for the Liangshan Marsh outlaws. After the outlaws were granted amnesty, he became an imperial physician. Ō Teiroku (Wáng Dìngliù; left arm outstretched) is likened to the female goddess of lightning for his fast walking speed. Kō Hōtan (Huáng Fǔduān; doubled over, hands covering ears, and left leg raised) was an excellent veterinarian who cared for the animals and horses of the outlaws. After amnesty he served the Song emperor as imperial veterinarian. His nickname refers to his description as being "weird-looking," and maybe non-Han Chinese. And lastly, Kin Daiken (Jīn Dàjiān; covering his eyes) was an excellent sculptor who could carve all kinds of stone tablets, jade works, and seals.

CRICKET: Alfonso Thomas helps Perth Scorchers to Big Bash final
9:41am Thursday 6th February 2014 in Sport
SOMERSET'S Alfonso Thomas played his part in helping Perth Scorchers to beat Sydney Sixers yesterday to book their place in the Big Bash final tomorrow (Friday).
After being put into bat at the WACA, the Scorchers were indebted to Craig Simmons who hit 112 to help his side to 193-5.
Between the innings the rain fell heavily and delayed the start of the Sixers innings.
Had the rain continued until 10.37pm the game would have been abandoned and the Sixers awarded the victory.
However it abated in time for the game to resume with two minutes to spare, with the Sydney side chasing 54 for victory off five overs.
Thomas opened the bowling and restricted the batsmen to seven runs to give the Scorchers a good start.
In a tense finish the Sixers needed six off the final ball for victory but failed to score to finish on 48-6.
Scorchers now face Hobart Hurricanes in the final at the WACA.

1986 - 1988
Wizbit was a 1985 BBC children's television show in which an alien magician called Wizbit and a large rabbit called Wooly had adventures in a place called Puzzleopolis.
Although it was stated in the show that Wizbit's year-and-a-day mission was to find out all about planet Earth, this clashed somewhat with the events witnessed on screen. Wizbit was (apparently) to learn about everyday life on earth by solving puzzles in a town inhabited by walking, talking (and often singing) sponge-balls, dice, magic wands, playing cards and 7-foot-tall (2.1 m) rabbits.
The show made an attempt to be semi-educational. The (often lateral thinking) puzzles Wizbit was set were usually presented to the audience at home, with the solutions being revealed towards the end of the episode.
The show was created by Barry Murray, who had formerly been Mungo Jerry's record producer, with assistance from conjuror Paul Daniels. It starred Daniels and his assistant (and wife) Debbie McGee.
Its theme tune was based on a song by Lead Belly, named "Ha-Ha This A Way", sung by Daniels.
Wizbit's magic word was "Ostagazuzulum". Wizbit came from the planet WOW, an acronym for 'World Of Wizards'. Wizbit was visiting planet Earth for a year and a day.

NFL notes: 49ers' Michael Crabtree investigated
Crabtree investigated
49ers wide receiver Michael Crabtree has voluntarily met with San Francisco police in their investigation into an alleged sexual assault in a hotel after the team's playoff victory over the Green Bay Packers last weekend, his attorney said Saturday.
"Michael fully cooperated with the inspectors and will continue to do so throughout this investigation," the attorney, Joshua Bentley, said in a brief statement.
The statement comes after police said they were investigating a sexual assault allegation involving Crabtree in a hotel early last Sunday. Crabtree hasn't been detained or arrested, and has agreed to be available for more questions, police said.
McFadden in mind
The Oakland Raiders chose a coordinator to get their offense back to a power-running scheme suited to star back Darren McFadden.
The Raiders hired former Jacksonville quarterbacks coach Greg Olson as their new offensive coordinator, a person familiar with the decision confirmed Saturday on condition of anonymity because the team hadn't announced the move. The hiring was first reported by the Contra Costa Times.
Coach Dennis Allen interviewed a number of candidates, including Norv Turner and Marc Trestman, before settling on Olson to replace the fired Greg Knapp. The shift in philosophies is a clear acknowledgment that McFadden was not suited to a zone running scheme.
New Jags coordinator
New Jacksonville Jaguars coach Gus Bradley has turned to a former colleague for his first hire — and maybe his most important one.

To some, the most hated day of the year is April 15th, tax day. Dan Bontrager with Bontrager tax in Kalona says to make sure that you get everything you need done before the due date because the penalties can be high. He says most people know about getting a penalty for filing late, but he says most people don't know that there is a second penalty for paying late as well. Bontrager says an extension to file doesn't always mean an extension to pay. He says if you think you might be late it is better to be safe than sorry and file for an extension, and if you question anything to contact a professional. He says it could save you more money than you think.

Interim report, the reliability of Vermont portfolio scores in the 1992-93 school year
Discusses the quality of the assessment data from the second year of the Vermont student portfolio program. The progress shown in scoring mathematics portfolios is encouraging but still leaves room for improvement. The continuing low reliability of writing portfolio scoring suggests weaknesses in the design and operation of that part of the program, which might be improved by more conventional definition of types of tasks and simpler, perhaps genre-specific rubrics.

The Penalty Flag:
We're seeing something this season very similar to what we have over the last five years in the quality of play from Tony Romo and Eli Manning during the month of November. For some odd reason, the performances over the last five years or so of these two elite quarterbacks have been closely compared but in November they seem to end up on opposite ends of the field. It turns out that Romo is seen as being a "hero" and Manning seems to end up being seen as a "zero" during this month of the season. Not literally but the stats do show that Tony Romo seems to play at his best during this time of the season while Eli Manning tends to really struggle during this time.… Read more

Haha a darn good actress?? That is a outright lie. That's why so many people in California say you…Read Morew ere so bad they just groaned when she showed up for auditions. I am a talent agent. I worked in some of the studios where this girl auditioned and I am now also a Minnesota resident. She was just horrible on stage. NOT a good actress at all. I don't know who you are fooling Amber, I guess yourself??? She was mean and treated her ex husband like garbage. She used him and made him work his back side off to the bone to pay for her MULTIPLE failed business ventures that were ALL a joke. She lies and manipulates to get her way. She always did even working as a literary agent, she lied, cheated, and treated people like trash. This is not a woman that anyone should respect. She is just so desperate for fame and fortune she will do whatever it takes. She does not deserve to be famed and pampered. It sickens me how many people believe her lies. That little magazine she was in, was and still is joke among California. They look for anyone who has basically lifted a finger in life to place in it. It doesn't make you a great business person because every business she has had has failed and cost her and her ex as well as HIS family members that have said she borrowed money from to open these failed businesses, a lot of wasted money. I can't believe people are making such a big deal out of her. Half the crap she says in here is a lie. Her "friend" trying to kiss her, did not save her from drinking. Her exes family member in California said she was so black out drunk, when her ex came home she was nearly dying and he made her stop drinking..not celebrities, and some guy trying to hook up with her..Again, she lies to make herself look good. Someone had to make her quit...

Desperate Left tries to Akin-ize Richard Mourdock
Tweet |
These word-warping Democrats and lying liberal War on Women manufacturers make me sick.
Especially looking at you, Debbie Wasserman Schultz.
Tea Party candidate Richard Mourdock defended life last night in his Indiana Senate debate with Democrat Joe Donnelly. Watch the whole statement:
What he said: "The only exception I have to have an abortion is in the case of the life of the mother. I struggled with it myself for a long time, but I came to realize life is that gift from God. I think that even when life begins in that horrible situation of rape, that it is something that God intended to happen."
For the comprehension-challenged, Mourdock repeated again after the debate: "God creates life, and that was my point. God does not want rape, and by no means was I suggesting that He does. Rape is a horrible thing, and for anyone to twist my words otherwise is absurd and sick."
Wasserman Schultz and her #LADYPARTS gal pals immediately tried to Akin-ize Mourdock and turn his comments into an endorsement of rape.
Never mind that pro-life Democrat Donnelly was an original co-sponsor of one of Akin's abortion funding ban bills:
Democratic Senate candidate Joe Donnelly and Republican gubernatorial candidate Mike Pence twice sponsored legislation that would separate out 'forcible rape' when it comes to federal funding of abortions." (Tom LoBianco, "No running from social issues in election battles," The Associated Press, 8/26/12)
"Donnelly, Pence And Akin Joined 224 Other House Lawmakers, Most Of Them Republicans, On A Bill Last Year That Would Have Cut Off Federal Aid For Abortion-Related Services For Statutory Rape And Incest. The bill established a separate category for 'forcible rape' and allowed the services to continue for those. Following a massive outcry, lawmakers backtracked and restored the original language that did not differentiate among the types of rape." (Tom LoBianco, "Indiana pols distance themselves from Akin comment," The Associated Press, 8/21/12)
"'Joe Is Pro-Life And Supports Legislation To Ensure That No Federal Dollars Go Toward Funding Abortion-Related Services. That Was The Original Intention Of The Bill, Not To Redefine Rape,' Said Donnelly Spokeswoman Elizabeth Shappell." (Tom LoBianco, "Indiana pols distance themselves from Akin comment," The Associated Press, 8/21/12)
"In 2011, Donnelly said he was not initially aware the measure could have limited the eligibility of some rape victims for abortion coverage – and once that issue was raised, he was glad to see it amended. 'Rape is a violent and despicable act in every circumstance. It is my firm belief that our laws should always reflect that fact,' he said then. His campaign's spokeswoman, Elizabeth Shappell, said Donnelly's position has not changed. 'Joe is pro-life and supports legislation to ensure that no federal dollars go toward funding abortion-related services,' she said. 'That was the original intention of the bill, not to redefine rape. As he said at the time, he would have voted against this bill if it had not been amended to remove the word "forcible."' (Eric Bradner, "State candidates steer clear of Akin," Evansville Courier Press, 8/22/12)
Mourdock made a statement of faith.
Akin made a Magical Uterus mess and blamed everyone but himself.
Indiana voters are smart enough to see the difference. Too bad the establishment GOP types cutting and running from Mourdock don't have the guts to stand up to the lying liars. But then, the establishment was never with Mourdock.
Good thing the election is not up to them.
Stand tall, Richard.

The Birth of The Modular
A novel idea won Harvey Probber his seat in the modernist pantheon.
Click here to read the full article on InteriorDesign.net
On the cover: Louis XV Goes to Sparta chair.
Sink Into An Iconic Sofa
IF THE FLAT-ROOFED house revolutionized architecture, the sectional sofa did the same for seating. And, according to most accounts, we have cult designer Harvey Probber—a New Yorker who died in 2003—to thank for importing this outré couch concept from Europe. Mr. Probber designed his first sectional in the 1940s and achieved what could well be its apotheosis with his improbably sumptuous 1970 Deep Tuft model. Its rows of distinct marshmallows seem to defy the laws of upholstery, if not quite physics, and would have been impossible without Mr. Probber's proprietary non-sag Proberon foam.
Typical for its era, the Deep Tuft manages to be both minimalist and maximalist, which invests it with unique power. Its decadence can instantly glamorize modern interiors that are a little too sterile and safe. At the same time, it's simple enough to inject freshness into a traditional room without skewing too cold.
Until this spring, only those lucky enough to run across a rare used model at 1stdibs.com or New York's Todd Merrill Antiques could own this masterwork (which wasn't produced in large numbers). Starting in May, M2L, a New York-based manufacturer known for reintroducing forgotten lines, will be taking orders for new models, along with other Probber designs. A basic five-piece configuration in fabric starts at $15,000 (or $19,900 in leather). m2l.com

Voting has begun in Egypt, where the nation's first parliamentary elections are being held since the toppling of President Hosni Mubarak's regime nine months ago. So far turnout is high and things are going well — a relief after last week's protests.
Voting has begun in Egypt, where the nation's first parliamentary elections are being held since the toppling of President Hosni Mubarak's regime nine months ago.
So far, according to reports from NPR, The Associated Press and other news outlets, turnout is high and things are going well — a relief after last week's protests in major cities and the violent response to them from authorities.
From Alexandria, NPR's Soraya Sarhaddi Nelson reported during Morning Edition that "for the past several days it's been very quiet with everybody focused on the election," and today, police officers have been "very, very pleasant and polite and answering voters' questions" — a civil type of exchange with civilians that's "something I have never seen here before."
Also on Morning Edition, NPR's Lourdes Garcia-Navarro reported from a crowded polling place in Cairo that "it's calm here and fears of violence have not kept people away."
Al-Jazeera says there have been some "logistical problems" today. In some places, "polling stations had not opened more than an hour after the time scheduled, as ballot papers and the ink used to mark voters' fingers had not arrived. ... Additionally, a ban on campaigning at polling stations has been broken, with members of parties handing out pamphlets and banners."
But, the AP adds, "the vote promises to be the fairest and cleanest election in Egypt in living memory. The Muslim Brotherhood, Egypt's largest and best organized group, along with its Islamist allies are expected to do well in the vote."
Voting continues tomorrow. Results won't be known for months because the parliamentary elections are being held in stages around the country. According to the BBC:
"The voting begins an election timetable which lasts until March 2012. The first stage, running until January, covers elections to the 508-member People's Assembly. About 50 million people are eligible to vote out of a population in excess of 85 million — with candidates from 50 registered political parties."
We'll keep an eye on the news from Egypt and pass along highlights as the day continues. [Copyright 2011 National Public Radio]

Nine months after the leaked workprint of X-Men Origins: Wolverine, the Federal Bureau of Investigation has arrested a suspect they believe uploaded the copy to the Internet weeks before its theatrical release.
47-year-old Gilberto Sanchez (a.k.a. SkillFulGil, theskilled1, SkillyGuy, and Skillz101) from the Bronx, New York was taken into custody Wednesday morning. A grand jury indictment alleges Sanchez uploaded the unfinished copy to Megaupload on or around March 31, 2009.
Sanchez faces three years in prison and a fine of $250,000, or twice the gross loss attributable to the offense (whichever is greater). 20th Century Fox will need to find a way to calculate the potential millions lost due to the leak first.
For a guy named "theskilled1," he wasn't very adept at avoiding detection. Then again, it took the FBI nine months to track him down, so maybe "SkillFilGul" is as good as he claims to be. I find it hard to believe Sanchez is the only one to blame though, and there still remains unanswered questions. How did "SkillyGuy" in the Bronx obtain a workprint for a major release? Why did it take so long to find him? Why didn't he pirate a good movie?
Update: Sanchez, released from custody on a $50,000 bond, claims he bought it from a Korean on the streets for $5. The plot thickens…
My usual advice — with everything from cookie jar tampering to druglord take downs — is to follow the money. However, in case the root of the problem was the loss of millions. So, I suppose torturing interrogating a suspect is the next best thing.
If watching too many crime dramas has taught me anything, it's that the FBI is hoping to bring in Mr. Sanchez and start negotiating. Maybe the agents play their cards right and he rats on the leak. Maybe they roll it up to the big wigs who allowed it to happen. Or maybe, just maybe, they crack a career case that winds its way into the heart of Hollywood. That is, if they're not too busy arguing over jurisdiction with the police department or teaching a rookie the ropes.
