Year-End Results: Favorite Breakup Songs of '08!
Year-End Results: Favorite Breakup Songs of '08!
by DearSugar 19 Reactions 0 Shares Print
If you could create a soundtrack of your life, you'd probably have happy music, sad music, and music for every mood in between. Though a song can't make the pain of a breakup go away, it sure can help lift your spirits, or allow you to give into your blues, if that's the path you want to take. As part of my Best of 2008 coverage, I asked you to tell me your favorite breakup song of the year, so I'm back to round up my favorites that I found helpful, too. Check out my top five picks below:
"Apologize" — One Republic
"Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)" — Beyonce
"Hot n Cold" — Katy Perry
"Better in Time" — Leona Lewis
"White Horse" — Taylor Swift

I agree with you jcowgirlhottie, I LOVEEE that song! Haha. Also Break Apart Her Heart by Good Charlotte, but I dunno what year it was released.
sparklestar 5 years
Rascall Flatts - What hurts the most When was that released? I have no idea. Cascada did a version of it this year.

I dont really like Beyonce, but "If I were a Boy" is another good breakup song. Also, Apologize wasnt released in 2008. :/ But if we're going that route. Seventy times 7 by Brand New is the BEST breakup song! Some of the lyrics go "dont apologize I hope you choke and die" and "so have another drink and drive yourself home, I hope theres ice on all the roads and you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt and again when your head goes through the windshield" lol...it makes me feel so much better to turn this song on full blast and scream along with it!

Hot 'N Cold. My gf and I even sang it in the car together. Ironic huh?

"Love Lockdown" by Kanye West. I also like Beyonce. As annoying as that song gets, for some reason I always find myself dancing to it. And "So What" by Pink gets a vote from me as well.

The restaurant Windows by Jamie Kennedy is an authentically Niagara treat.
Celebrated Chef and Order of Canada Recipient Jamie Kennedy brings a revolutionary dining experience to the heart of Niagara Falls. Located at the Sheraton on the Falls Hotel, Windows by Jamie Kennedy breaks new ground in the tourist district. The restaurant champions the rich local bounty available right in its own backyard. Kennedy's passion and experience is felt in every aspect of the Falls view restaurant, where diners will enjoy not only the finest in local cuisine, but one of the world's most spectacular views.
Windows features a seasonally-based, evolving menu featuring the riches of the region, that celebrates fine ingredients and local artisans. Windows by Jamie Kennedy is housed on the fallsview dining level of the Sheraton on the Falls, with panes of glass—some frosted, others with a wood grain—separating Windows from the Fallsview Restaurant that occupies the main eating area. The decor at Windows is fairly simple; complementary shades of warm brown accent the room, while candle-filled Mason jars—a classic Kennedy touch—light up the tables. One wall is lined with booths, while the opposite one is devoted to the restaurant's namesake windows, which offer a breathtaking view of the falls. Windows also features a custom created glass encased wine wall that displays the expansive array of selections that have been hand-picked to highlight the dining experience. Many of the selections are locally grown and produced from award winning Niagara wineries.
- 5/5 Stars - Toni Williams - 25/05/2013
Loved going to Jamie Kennedy's. The food is fabulous, I highly recommend the Chicken Pot Pie, the Jamie Kennedy fries. The view is spectacular and they are well informed about all Niagara Wines. I met Jamie Kennedy and he's a true believer in farm to table. So he uses local produce meats from Ontario Farms that have had respectful lives. This place gets top vote for me!

10 min wall to the beach; Nice contact with owners; balcony is very nice part of the appartment: lot of space, beautiful view on the mountains and sunset; also quiet in high season.
Thank you very much. we're so glad you and your family enjoyed our Apartment, and had such a good holiday.

"too far out"
the large balcony was great to relax and dine with nice views
on the side we were not allowed to bbq for insurance,although it is included in hol lettings advert
there is little space to store clothes, cupboards locked with i guess owners own things,in the second room we only had one half cupboard and an iron board on the back
of the door, also no air conditioning
water pressure really poor cant get a decent shower
electrics keep tripping,one night i had to get out of bed and reset it 4 times as we needed the fan on,no air con
the pool across the road is run down and seen better days,the other pool in the photos is too far away we didnt go
when we got to the apt all seats were covered and the owner asked us not to remove them
not the same as the photos in the advert
This guest e-mailed us a week before arrival asking if a BBQ was available. We do not list a BBQ, or show one in the photographs.
As this guest only stayed for 7 days, the wardrobe and other cloths hanging facilities should have been more than adequate.
The photograph of the rear bedroom clearly shows a fan. Air con units are in the lounge and master bedroom.
When we greet guests, we explain the the electrics are sensitive (they were installed like that for safety). We do warn that they can trip in stormy weather where lightening is present. During this guests stay, there were tropical type thunderstorms during the night.
The client did hire a car, so it was only a 3 minute drive to the other pool we use. The "Rosa Blanca" is the nearest, but others are available.
The furniture is as photographed, we ask our guests to use the covers, to protect the furniture from sticky sun cream/oils. Its up to the guests if they want to remove them.
We always give our guests our contact telephone number, and ask them to
phone if they have any problems. We did not receive any calls.
This guest seems "miffed" that his friends stayed in the master bedroom !

"Absolutely beautiful & modern apartment"
Our family of four stayed here, and it was like a home from home, beautifully decorated with modern facilities including a good internet service. We loved the large terrace overlooking the mountains … More
Many thanks. We're so glad that you enjoyed your stay at our Apartment. Your family seemed to have really enjoyed this part of the island. You'll always be more than welcome to stay again.

"Quiet, well equipped modern apartment"
We enjoyed a week's holiday here and it felt a bit like home from home. The apartment had everything we needed. The owners were very helpful. It was outside the main bustle of the seaside town, but only 10-15 mins walk to the beach, mainly in the shade. I would definitely go there again.
Thank you very much for your comments. Glad the french air traffic controllers industrial action did not stop you getting home on time,and
therefor not spoiling your time here.

"Lovely apartment with great terrace in a quiet location about a mile walk from the beach."
Friendly, helpful service from owners of this lovely apartment with easy parking. The apartment itself is extremely well appointed and equipped. The accommodation has no affiliation to enable access to a swimming pool, however, some local hotels are happy for anyone to use facilities if they purchase food or drink. The 1400m walk to the beach is an easy, flat walk (we had a buggy) and goes via a decent supermarket which is helpful. We had a lovely stay here and would recommend.
Thank you very much for your kind words. We're so happy you all enjoyed your stay, and would love to have you come stay again.

The New York Times reports today: "For the most part, the traditional news outlets lead and the blogs follow, typically by 2.5 hours, according to a new computer analysis of news articles and commentary on the Web during the last three months of the 2008 presidential campaign." By that measure, I'm past due in responding, but here's why the Times has it wrong.
The study in question demonstrates a fascinating technique, borrowed from genetics research, for tracking memes in media coverage, and produces some surprising results that I'll get to below. But part of the paper is based on a flawed methodology that totally discredits the findings highlighted by the Times. Here's the illustration of that two-and-a-half-hour gap between peak coverage of memes — in this case, phrases from the 2008 presidential election — in the mainstream media and on blogs:
In order to determine whether a news source belongs on the red curve or the green one, the authors look to whether it's indexed by Google News. If so, the source is labeled as "mainstream media." But Google News indexes loads and loads of political blogs, from conservative Hot Air to liberal Talking Points Memo. It includes Daily Kos, Power Line, AMERICAblog, and the celebrity news site Just Jared. Even the Nieman Journalism Lab is in there, so by the study's reckoning, you are currently consuming mainstream media.
So it may be true, as the Times reports on the front of its business section, that "the traditional news outlets lead and the blogs follow," but the study doesn't support that conclusion. What it finds is a surprisingly narrow gap between 20,000 prominent news sources, of all stripes, that are indexed in Google News and 1.6 million websites that don't make the cut. Or, as Jon Kleinberg, an author of the study, told me: "This shows how important it is to look at blogs and news media as one single organism."
From that perspective, the paper has quite a bit to add. First, it's fascinating that memes in political reporting can be tracked with methods drawn from bioinformatics and genetic sequence analysis. As Bill Wasik explains in his new book on viral culture, And Then There's This, the term meme was coined by the British biologist Richard Dawkins, who wrote in The Selfish Gene:
I think that a new kind of replicator has recently emerged on this very planet. It is staring us in the face. It is still in its infancy, still drifting clumsily about it its primeval soup…The new soup is the soup of human culture. We need a name for the new replicator, a noun that conveys the idea of a unit of cultural transmission, or a unit of imitation. 'Mimeme' comes from a suitable Greek root, but I want a monosyllable that sounds a bit like gene. I hope my classicist friends will forgive me if I abbreviate mimeme to meme.
Perhaps owing to those biological origins, we have come to describe particularly fast-moving Internet memes as viral, which evokes the image of passing through a population (and doesn't, for what it's worth, have anything to do with genetics). In New York magazine's discussion of Wasik's book, Times culture critic Virginia Heffernan questions whether the virus metaphor is "misleading — and ripe for retirement." The meme-tracking study provides an alternative analogy: the heartbeat.
Back to Kleinberg's idea of the web as a "single organism." The study found that, yes, memes peak on prominent websites — that is, those indexed by Google News — before less prominent ones, but both of those peaks are generally preceded by a blip on the less prominent sites. Here's how it's illustrated in the paper; we're looking at the percentage of each meme's mentions that occur on sites not indexed by Google News. Zero hour represents the meme's overall peak:
The authors describe this as a "'heartbeat'-like dynamic" or a series of handoffs between blogs and mainstream media. My hunch is that the heartbeat would be even more visible — healthier, you might say — if the study had made a more-precise distinction between mainstream media and blogs. But in any event, the finding explodes that worn-out notion, furthered by today's Times piece, of parasitic blogs merely reacting to the work of professional journalists.
It also complicates Wasik's description of viral culture: "This telltale spike, this ascent to sudden heights followed by a decline nearly as precipitious." He attributes that fleeting attention span to the Internet, but the meme-tracking study finds that, if anything, obscure blogs dwell much longer on a meme — in that heartbeat-like fashion — than the more-prominent news sources indexed by Google News.
There are a few other findings that I'll highlight tomorrow because, despite some flaws in the methodology, the study is totally fascinating — and worth exploring on its dedicated web site. When I talked to Kleinberg two weeks ago, he acknowledged that Google News was an imprecise measure of mainstream media but argued, reasonably, that they had to draw a line somewhere to produce any meaningful results. He also noted that the paper was, in part, intended to demonstrate the meme-tracking technique they've developed, in which case, the distinction isn't important.
And while I was writing this post, Scott Rosenberg weighed in with many of the same criticisms, while concluding:
Nonetheless, I fully expect to see it taken as conventional wisdom from this point forward that "news starts with the traditional media and then moves into the blogosphere." Perhaps the Memetracker folks can follow the phrase "2.5 hours" and show us exactly how that happens.

HO-HO, HA-HA, good one!
Originally written on The Penalty Flag | Last updated 11/19/14
The 2012 NFL season has been full of upsets, questionable wins and basically things that donãt make any sense. At theô beginningô of the season, odds were Andy Dalton, A.J. Green and theô Cincinnatiô Bengals werenãt going to take over the Steelers in the AFC North, but they did just that by knocking them out of the playoffs. A bit of payback for all those years the Bengals have been complete garbage. The last time Cincinnati made the playoffs in consecutive seasons was back in 1981-82 and this is the first time theyãll make the postseason in two straight non-strike years. If this season tells us anything, the smart money is on the Bengals for the Super Bowl.ô Currently 50-to-1, if you were to lay $100 on the Bengals to win the Super Bowl you would win $5,000 if they won.ãÎ Read more

Feb. 21 (Bloomberg) -- The demand for Mexican government bills maturing in six months rose to a six-week high at an auction today as foreign investors bet that central bank policy makers will keep benchmark borrowing costs steady.
The bid-to-cover ratio, a measure of investor demand, rose to 3.74, the highest since Jan. 10. The zero-coupon notes yielded 4.47 percent at auction, down from 4.48 percent on Feb. 14. The peso fell 0.6 percent to 12.7652 per dollar at 1:49 p.m. in Mexico City, trimming gains this year to 9.2 percent, still the most among 16 major currencies tracked by Bloomberg.
Foreign investors are shifting demand to longer-term Cetes from those maturing in 28 days amid bets that policy makers are likely to keep rates on hold in Mexico and the U.S. for an extended period, according to Eduardo Avila, an economist at Monex Casa de Bolsa SA. The U.S. Federal Reserve has pledged to keep the benchmark rate near zero at least through late 2014, while in Mexico economists are joining traders in abandoning predictions for Banco de Mexico to cut its 4.5 percent key rate.
"The fact that the Fed sees a quite long period in which rates aren't going to move incentivizes the foreign investor to come to Mexico," Avila said in an interview from Mexico City. "With the horizon a little more clear they can get into notes including those maturing in three months and six months."
The yield on peso denominated bonds due in 2024 increased two basis points, or 0.02 percentage point, to 6.49 percent, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The price of the securities fell 0.21 centavo to 130.45 centavos per peso.

My Favorite Wife (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
What would you do if you were in this predicament?� Your lovely wife was on board a ship that was lost at sea.� Seven years pass and during that interim you've been working hard at your law career� and you've met a new woman to be a wife and mother to your children.� Seven years is the legal amount of time that has to pass before you can have someone missing declared legally dead, so you go to a judge you know and have your first wife declared legally dead.� Now you are free to marry your new lady love, and you do so.� On the afternoon of your wedding day, right before you and wife #2 are to leave for your honeymoon, guess what?� Wife #1 appears!� She's alive and well, and was stuck on a deserted island for these past seven years!� What would you do?� This is the plot for a delightful comedy called
My Favorite Wife
, released in 1940, by
RKO Studios
Cary Grant
plays Nick Arden, our hero-lawyer of the movie, and
Irene Dunne
is Ellen, wife #1.� Gail Patrick is Bianca, wife #2, and Randolph Scott portrays Stephen Burkett, a handsome man who also survived the same shipwreck as Ellen, and was on the deserted island with her.� A fact that Ellen humorously tries to keep Nick from finding out about.
Nick has a major problem on his hands; wife #1 isn't dead, so legally they are still married, yet he has just married a second wife, who has no idea that Ellen has resurfaced.� He has to find� a way to break the news gently to Bianca, who is puzzled as to why they haven't left for their honeymoon yet, so she calls in a psychiatrist, Dr. Kohlmar,� to come out to Nick's house and try to talk with him about his reluctance to get on with the honeymoon!
Ellen, meanwhile, doesn't want Nick to know about Stephen, her island buddy, so she recruits a mild-mannered, shy shoe salesman to pretend to be Stephen so Nick won't feel jealous.� However, an insurance adjustor contacts� Nick and tells him that there is a rumor going around town that Ellen wasn't alone on that deserted island and that she and her island buddy called each other, "Adam and Eve".� Nick decides to track down this� island buddy and discovers for himself that Stephen Burkett is strong, athletic, and quite handsome!� Nick, while dealing with Bianca and Dr. Kohlmar, has a new problem crop up when the police arrive at his home to arrest him for bigamy!
This film is what is termed a "Screwball Comedy" as the situations that the characters find themselves in are so funny and utterly unbelievable.� The film was directed by Garson Kanin, produced by
Leo McCarey
, and written by Leo McCarey, Samuel Spewack and Bella Spewack.� It was loosely based upon a poem by
Alfred Lord Tennyson
, "Enoch Arden", about a sailor lost at sea, who survives on a deserted island for seven years, only to be rescued, returns home to find his wife remarried to his best childhood friend, and with a new child by the new husband.� The poem has a sad, yet noble ending.� Fortunately for us� the movie has a better ending; the entire movie� is a delightful romp of comedy and romance.� It did earn a big box office profit� for RKO, and it was nominated for 3 Academy Awards: Best Story, Best Musical Score, and Best Art Direction.
Cary Grant displays his comedic timing to perfection in this film, trying to keep all the plates spinning, so to speak, before they all come crashing down.� Irene Dunne is� great as Ellen, trying to convince her husband that she still loves him, despite being stuck on a deserted island with the very handsome Stephen.� The supporting players all do really well with their parts, portraying their characters with sincerity, and believability.
The film was such a hit, that in 1962 Twentieth Century Fox began filming a remake, titled Something's Got to Give, with Dean Martin, Marilyn Monroe, and Cyd Charisse reprising� the roles.� Monroe was eventually fired for not showing up to film her scenes, Martin quit when the studio attempted to refill Monroe's part, and the project was shelved.� After Monroe's death, the studio recast the movie with Doris Day, James Garner, and Polly Bergen and retitled it Move Over, Darling, releasing it in 1963.� It is a funny movie too, in color,with songs by Doris Day� but for my taste, I prefer the original with Cary and Irene.
So pop up a big batch of popcorn, grab a soda and a comfy spot to sit.� My Favorite Wife is available for sale at Amazon, it will be� shown on Turner Classic Movies on February 12th, and it is available to rent from Netflix.

McDonald's pledges 250,000 kits in grassroots football deal
McDonald's has renewed its sponsorship of the UK's football associations for a further four years, pledging to supply 250,000 kits to local football clubs.
McDonald's: Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey signs up as ambassador
The fast-food chain, which first signed up as the Football Association's (FA) Community Partner in 2002, said it remains committed to raising the standards of football facilities at a grassroots level.
The brand revealed the renewal of its agreement with the English, Scottish, Welsh and Northern Irish associations with an event hosted at west London club Larkspur Rovers, attended by Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey.
Larkspur Rovers is one of 7,200 FA Charter Standard-accredited clubs that will receive a brand new Adidas- or Nike-manufactured kit each season.
McDonald's UK managing director Mark Hawthorne said: "McDonald's has worked alongside the UK FAs for the last 12 years and during this time has helped thousands of UK clubs, enabling over four million kids to play good quality football.
"Our new partnership focuses on raising the standards at grassroots clubs from better safety, and better advice, to better kit and better recognition for volunteers.
"Over the next four years, each year we will work with the four Home Nation Football Associations and their official kit suppliers to give away brand new kits to every accredited club with a youth team across the UK."

Creating a Structure for Change in Compton
A diverse team of concerned community members have collaborated to lay the foundation for much of the work that will be undertaken by Best Start Compton/East Compton in the upcoming months.
Over a nine-month period, parents, residents, community-based organizations (CBOs), stakeholders and representatives from Best Start created a governance structure, the framework that will determine how they will make decisions and take action to improve the lives of children and families.
"It's been a process that's frustrated some parents because many aren't familiar with the process of developing such a structure from scratch," says Saul Figueroa, a program manager at El Nido Family Centers. "But it's also been empowering and a learning experience."
The team for this Best Start Compton/East Compton project includes 50 residents, several CBOs like Figueroa's El Nido Family Centers, and stakeholders who may not live in the community but are engaged nonetheless.
"Best Start's activities will be primarily driven by Compton residents, but community-based organizations are also involved in the process. Residents discuss with the CBOs the changing needs and interests of the community," says Alex Wade, program officer for Best Start Compton/East Compton.
Under the governance structure, parents, residents, and stakeholders will decide which projects will come to fruition and fulfill Best Start's overarching goal of making sure children are healthy, ready for school and protected. They are currently focusing on increasing social connections among parents and residents to build a network of support in the community.
"Parents felt we needed to focus on this because of the people needing to make connections in the community," says stakeholder Romalis Taylor, adding that Compton's high birth rates and teen pregnancy can contribute to isolation. "They want to address the issues and determine what's needed."
Initially, residents were wary of Best Start because of past negative experiences with institutions and organizations. But Best Start's approach to encouraging resident participation in everything from the creation and implementation of the governance structure to planning actual activities, has helped to win the support of many in the community.
"People can be apprehensive, and the hardest thing is building trust," says Rashida Swan, a Compton resident and child care specialist at the Homeless Outreach Program Integrated Care System in Los Angeles. "But when they are told the program will be run by them, they are more willing to participate."
Not everyone has that apprehension. Elisa Villegas, who has been going to Best Start meetings since they began three years ago, has never needed any convincing.
"I want a change in my community," Villegas says. "I work for my community and want it to be better for parents and children."
1 Response to "Creating a Structure for Change in Compton"
Keep up the great work Best Start Compton/East Compton! You are a true example to all on how to make this effort community based and community led. Si Se Puede!
