Harry Potter Box Office
July 17, 2011 by Post Team
Harry Potter Box Office, Fter mark the debut largest midnight opening day, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2″ also won the big one: best weekend. According to studio estimates, the film PG-13 magicians and collected 168.6 million this weekend, beating "The Dark Knight's" record and 158 400 000 and give Warner Bros. the two best opening weekend ever. However, when adjusted for inflation, Knight would still be king and about 173 million in ticket prices today. However, everyone involved in the eighth and final "Potter" movie should be very proud. Not only does the film a record amount of moolah, but is currently the best version of comprehensive review of the years, according to both Metacritic and Rotten Tomatoes. He received a total of "A" rating from the audience CinemaScore.
"Potter" sold a million records and 15.5 in IMAX theaters, according to the company of the big screen. Conversion of 3-D movie, however, produced mediocre results, as only 43 percent of the film debut came in 3-D screens. "Transformers: Dark of the Moon", by comparison, harvesting 60 percent of its opening from 3-D projections. Overseas, where the public still in love with 3-D, was "Potter" in three dimensions share a strong 61 percent. Speaking of foreigners, "Potter" and grossed 307 million in 59 countries, surpassing "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Stranger Tides" and 260.4 million for the most external opening of all time. Add to total national and worldwide debut "Potter" becomes and 475.6 million, beating the previous all-time and reference point of 394 million set by "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince."
The film should be taken into account, was front-loading. Nationally, "Potter" fell 53 percent from Friday to Saturday, which is more pronounced on Friday to Saturday drop ever for a film opening in over 2,000 theaters. While it's gross 92.1 million Friday and was the largest single-day counts always, your estimated gross of 42.9 million Saturday ranks ninth among all the results on Saturday. This kind of massive decline was expected, with a multitude of "Potter" fans that choose to see the movie ASAP. It will be interesting to see how the film holds up next week as the initial "Potter" mania gone.
For we all forget, other films also played this weekend. New Disney's "Winnie the Pooh", debuted in sixth place and 8 million. G-rated image led the opening of "Pooh Heffalump Movie" (and 5.8 million) and "Piglet's Big Movie" (and 6.1 million), but did not "The Tigger Movie" (and 9 4 million). CinemaScore audiences gave it an "A-" grade. Interestingly, 2 percent of the participants listed CinemaScore "actress in a leading role" as a reason why he attended "Winnie the Pooh." Explain that one to me.
Among the relics, "Transformers: Dark of the Moon" dropped 55 percent to 21.3 million, bringing the cumulative total of the action film to 302.8 million. The comedy "The Boss horrible" and "Zookeeper" held up well, slipping only 38 percent and 39 percent and 17.6 million and 12.3 million respectively. Pixar's "Cars 2," completed the five and 8.3 million.
In limited release, the historical drama "Snow Flower" and "Secret Fan" made of 24 rooms and 136,000, while Errol Morris's documentary "Tabloid" sold 101 000 and 14 localities. Entertainment Distributor ARC has not released a specific estimate of Sarah Palin's new documentary "The Undefeated," but a source close to the film said it earned between 60,000 and 75,000 and 10, and theaters. And Woody Allen's "Midnight in Paris" became the director of the highest grossing film with a cumulative total of 41.8 million, from the 1986 film "Hannah and Her Sisters."
Come back next week as the superhero movie "Captain America: The First Avenger" and the R-rated comedy "friends with benefits" attempt to spoil the "Potter" party.

InModern wins a gold star in my book. They have mastered the art of three very difficult things: 1.) They create pieces that can be put together and taken apart without tools or hardware. Missing a screw? Yes, you should be. All of their pieces are like easy puzzles pieces in furniture format. Unbelievable. 2.) They are about as environmentally conscious as you can get. I can count a good handful of ways that make their pieces sustainable: FSC/Rainforest Alliance Certified SmartWood, 100% formaldehyde-free, 100% non-toxic, water-based stains, UV cured finish to minimize greenhouse gases, and all pieces are shipped flat to conserve packaging and reduce waste. 3.) From a design perspective their pieces are amazing.

text: The French government is planning to introduce a small tax on airline tickets to raise funds for aid to Africa. French President Jacques Chirac said that a $1 tax could raise up to $10 billion for African aid. Although the G8 nations pledged to consider the idea following a June summit (ie, "please don't make us decide"), several countries (including the US, Ireland and Greece) have come out against the idea of such a tax. Germany has backed the plan but will not introduce a tax on its own tickets. A tax would likely be less than $3.

Ranked: 11 Hottest Celebrities Who Love College Basketball
College basketball has a way of drawing hot women to the arena. Dozens of sizzling celebrities attend March Madness each year. Here's our rank of the 11 hottest:
University of Michigan: Lucy Liu
Lucy Liu attended NYU for a year before transferring to University of Michigan where she graduated with a BS in Asian languages and cultures.
University of Texas: Jessica Simpson
Born and raised in the Lone Star State, Jessica Simpson can often be spotted in her burnt orange UT gear.
University of Florida: Erin Andrews
When Erin Andrews isn't working the sidelines, she's rooting for her alma mater. Andrews got her BA in telecommunications from University of Florida, and was on the Gators dance team from 1997-2000.
Stanford University: Reese Witherspoon
Though Reese Witherspoon dropped out of Stanford after a year to pursue acting, she's still a fan of their sports teams.
University of Arizona: Kourtney Kardashian
Before she was famous (for no reason) Kourtney Kardashian was a regular old college student at University of Arizona. Kourtney graduated with a BA in theatre arts, minoring in Spanish.
University of Washington: Anna Faris
Anna Faris attended the University of Washington and earned a degree in English lit.
UCLA: Gabrielle Union
Gabrielle Union is certainly an NBA fan of fiance Dwyane Wade's Miami Heat. But when it comes to college basketball, she's devoted to her alma mater -- UCLA.
University of Kansas: Olivia Wilde
Jason Sudeikis is a diehard Kansas Jayhawks fan and some of that has rubbed off on fiancee Olivia Wilde.
University of Kentucky: Ashley Judd
Probably the most famous celebrity college basketball fan is Ashley Judd, who can't get enough of the Kentucky Wildcats.
University of Iowa: Mila Kunis
It's no secret that Ashton Kutcher is a huge sports fan of his alma mater, University of Iowa. We can't help but think some of his crazy fandom has spilled over to fiancee Mila Kunis, even though she briefly attended UCLA and Loyola Marymount.
University of North Carolina: Brooklyn Decker
Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Brooklyn Decker proudly sports her Tar Heel gear at North Carolina games.

Voters deserve better than a rubber stamp; Toll booth will kill retail economy and job growth
EXETER – Today, Chris Sununu, Republican candidate for New Hampshire's District 3 Executive Council seat, issued the following statement:
"Interstate 93 is the economic artery to the state, and clogging it up with a toll booth in Salem will simply destroy the state's retail economy and kill job growth. Councilor Hollingworth and Governor Lynch have shown no leadership on this issue and are hiding behind unelected DOT bureaucrats who have taken control of the process.
"As an Executive Councilor, I will stand up for my constituents and carry their concerns directly to the Governor. I will stop any attempt to erect a toll both in Salem when I am on the Council.
"Bev Hollingworth has acquiesced at every stage of this process. District 3 voters deserve better than a rubber stamp for the Governor and his agency bureaucrats.
"I commend John Stephen for taking a stand against this ill-conceived plan, and I appreciate his shining a light on the lack of leadership in the corner office."
New Hampshire's Executive Council District 3 consists of the following cities and towns: Atkinson, Barrington, Brentwood, Chester, Danville, Dover, Durham, East Kingston, Epping, Exeter, Fremont, Greenland, Hampstead, Hampton, Hampton Falls, Kensington, Kingston, Lee, Madbury, New Castle, Newfields, Newington, Newmarket, Newton, North Hampton, Nottingham, Plaistow, Portsmouth, Rye, Salem, Sandown, Seabrook, South Hampton, Stratham, and Windham.

NFL Grades, Week 3: Eagles offense sputters for second straight week
Week 3's 2013 NFL Grades, featuring a second-straight poor performance for the Eagles on offense.
Alert the holders of the red flags: Chip Kelly's offense struggled against an AFC West team for the second-straight week. I said on our Pregame Live show I felt that a short week actually hurt the Eagles, even at home. And it appeared that was the case as Michael Vick reverted to the quarterback that nearly got run out of Philadelphia after a turnover-filled 2012.
Vick went 13 for 30 in Thursday night's 26-16 loss, throwing one touchdown and two interceptions for 201 yards before suffering an injury on a game-sealing fumble with 1:07 left in the game. LeSean McCoy had a dominant game, but it was largely irrelevant given the Eagles' struggles.
So what do we actually think about this Philly offense? Chip Kelly's a mastermind, no doubt. But they've not exploded the past two weeks the way we expected after a monstrous first half against the Redskins in Week 1.
Ten first-half points against the Chargers eventually became 30 total, but the first 30 minutes last week were a mess. Thursday was even worse. Vick was discombobulated most of the game and never got in sync with his receivers.
The Chiefs defense shouldn't be discounted -- Justin Houston had 4.5 sacks and was an absolute beast Thursday -- and definitely deserves credit for shutting down Philly and making one jolly, red-colored fella smile wide when he got destroyed by a pail of Gatorade ...
But there are issues for the Eagles on offense. Desean Jackson's a great burner but can Riley Cooper and Jason Avant as the No. 2 and No. 3 wideouts make this fast formation work? Can the Eagles find the necessary rhythm to keep their defense off the field? Because that defense isn't good and three-and-out drives are going to make life tough for them.
I'm not calling into question Kelly's approach at all. I believe it will work in the NFL. But the expectations we placed on the Eagles for this season after Week 1's domination of a terrible Redskins defense may have twisted the way we look at Philadelphia.
Two weeks into struggles on offense after those expectations we should pause and remember that sometimes the NFL doesn't play out exactly as Week 1 would have you believe.
The Eagles aren't done -- the NFC East is a total mess as I noted in this week's Stock Watch -- but they're not going to run roughshod over everyone just yet.
|Chiefs 26, Eagles 16
|The offense has major question marks. Alex Smith is a game manager and everyone's proud of that, but let's not get too excited. This was a defensive effort that carried things for the Chiefs and Justin Houston deserves an A+ for his performance. Smith was much better in the second half but a strong effort from this offense would've buried the Eagles early.
|All-around poor performance for the Eagles. LeSean McCoy, who ran for 158 yards and a long touchdown that briefly brought the game back within reach, was the lone bright spot for this team. Michael Vick looked like he regressed, the defense can't tackle (and gave up 141 receiving yards to Donnie Avery!). Sixteen points at home on primetime is a major concern for an team based on offense.

The hooloovoo is a super-intelligent shade of the colour blue. One was seen as a prism for Zaphod Beeblebrox's address upon stealing the Heart of Gold. On certain special occasions, such as the aforementioned Beeblebrox address, they will be refracted into a free-standing prism.
The hooloovoo demonstrate their dissatisfaction with the Universe by holding their breath until they turn a deep purple.
The hooloovoo appeared in:

- The Eoin Colfer book And Another Thing....

One of their race is pointed out by The Doctor in the 2013 Doctor Who episode "The Rings of Akhaten".

Useful and fun things to download!
Red Wines
2010 Korbin Kameron Cabernet Sauvignon Moon Mountain Sonoma Valley
Already nicely evolved, the bouquet of this gutsy mountain Cab is a rich perfume of sweet dark plum, mulberry, black cherry, red and black currant, blueberry, caramel, date sugar, cedar, graphite, sandalwood, tobacco and star anise scents. It is juicier, gutsier and more youthful on the palate, where dried herb and mineral accents join tannic grip to firm up the backbone. The finish is a firm melange of hard mineral elements, dark fruit and earthy spice, where notes of leather, clove, licorice root and cola join flavors that mirror the nose. It is a fine match for churrasco grilled meats and dark roasts. 800 cases produced.

2013 Singer Petit Verdot Blend "Aria" Napa Valley

It is plump and juicy on the palate, with fruit at center-stage and plenty of intensity overall. The finish is a plush, zesty, gutsy composite of bright fruits, supported by lingering sweet-savory spice notes that include licorice root, dates, black peppercorn, leather, tobacco, chocolate and baking-spices.

2014 Luli Pinot Noir Santa Lucia Highlands
Luli is always a fine value and an easy drinker, but this vintage displays an extra layer of dark richness.

Generous and satisfying by itself, its balance makes it extremely food-friendly for summer or winter service. 7200 cases produced.
2013 J. Rickards Zinfandel 1908 Brignole Vineyard Alexander Valley
This is a very full, yet dinner-friendly Zinfandel that possesses a rich core of purple plum, blackberry, blueberry, star anise, bay leaf and vanilla scents beneath it's more assertive aromas of violet and black pepper. Flavors of dark plum, blackberry, black cherry, blueberry, violet, sandalwood, licorice root, cracked black pepper and some earthy forest-floor notes fan-out to coat the palate. Those flavors are long, with an appealing suppleness, and the lasting memory is of fresh dark berries and sweet licorice root. Delicious already, it will be even better next year.

2013 Sans Liege Syrah "Long Way Home" Santa Barbara County

Complex and moderately age-worthy, it is already deliciously dinner-friendly. 475 cases produced.
White Wines
2014 Whitehall Lane Chardonnay Carneros
Among the richest of Whitehall Lane Chardonnays, this pretty bottling marries aromas of baked apple, fresh green apple, white peach, quince and lemon blossom to sweet-savory pie crust and toasted nut scents. It is plump and round on the palate, with plenty of zest to support its lingering apple, lemon curd, quince, dry peach, vanilla wafer and toasted nut flavors. Ready to enjoy, it is perfect for summers richer fish and fowl entrees, and will prove a fine pool-side sipper as well. 493 cases produced.
2015 Folkway Sauvignon Blanc Santa Barbara Highlands Vineyard Santa Barbara County
Brightly fresh and altogether distinctive, the aromas of this super-value white are a deftly-balanced mix of lime and grapefruit zest, guava, white peach, green plum, melon rind, green peppercorn and lemongrass scents.

2012 Chalone Pinot Blanc "Heritage Vines" Chalone District
Plush fruit and cutting zest prove ideal counterpoints in this delicious 'old-vines' bottling. In the nose, bright pear, peach, apple skin, grapefruit zest, lemon cream pie, yellow rose and white pepper scents form a sweet-natured harmony. The fruit is extravagantly plush on the mid-palate, where soft-edged flavors of Crenshaw melon, lychee, apple sauce, pear and lemon cream pie push-forth. Those same flavors - along with some kumquat, yellow rose, dried pear and peach tart additions - are tamed by piquant zest at the finish. This guilty-pleasure will prove as tasty with hamachi sashimi as with baked chicken or buttery crab legs. 702 cases produced..
2014 Mahoney Vermentino Carneros
Textbook in varietal character, fruit-packed and wonderfully food-friendly, this is a gorgeous Vermentino. The nose offers salt-preserved lemon, white peach pit, fresh apple, dried peach, cucumber, lemongrass, white pepper and mineral scents of impressive richness and focus. All those elements follow through on the palate with even greater distinction, to join flavors of Meyer lemon sorbet, green plum, pink peppercorn, dried mango, nut husk, oyster shell and mineral salts to linger in a rich, yet cutting-crisp finish. A joy with many dishes and cuisines, it should be at it's best with flavorful sea foods. 400 cases produced.
2014 Ojai Viognier Roll Ranch Ventura County
This is a vividly-focused, varietally perfect Viognier that fans-out a bright perfume of Royal Riviera pear, yellow peach, vanilla wafer, white pepper, jasmine, orange blossom and honeysuckle scents. The wine is every bit as fruit-forward on the palate, yet that fruit is counter-pointed by cutting acidity and hard minerality, which makes the flavors of lime zest, fresh pear, pear skin, lychee fruit, Gravenstein apple, white peach, white pepper, jasmine, honeysuckle and peach pit stand out in high relief. The finish is piquantly refreshing and very long, with mineral hints bringing stony dryness at the end. 321 cases produced.
2013 Palmina Tocai Friulano Honea Vineyard Santa Ynez Valley
Delightfully fresh, the aromas of this easy-drinking refresher are a focused mix of lime, quince, white peach, lemon sorbet, yellow rose, hay, straw and honeysuckle. In the mouth, quince, fresh lime, lemon curd, honeydew melon, tangerine sorbet, white currant and honeysuckle flavors glide on a sleek texture toward a refreshing finish that lingers with quiet undercurrents of star anise and river-stone minerality in support. It is ready to drink and will add an extra layer to the pleasures of summer. 301 cases produced.

Story Highlights
- Tucker aims high for 2011
- Level 5 Motorsports has busy schedule
- Championship is the goal
Scott Tucker takes fitness to a whole new level. The owner of Level 5 Motorsports keeps a tight regimen due to the duties he takes driving, not one car, but two cars in each American Le Mans Series race. This weekend at Sebring International Raceway, Tucker is not just racing in the Twelve Hours of Sebring. Yesterday, he competed in his first IMSA GT3 Cup Challenge race where he finished first in his first attempt in the Gold Cup class. Today, the CEO of Westfund will contest the SCCA Trans-Am race and the second GT3 Cup Challenge race.
Ferrari Challenge Series (FCS). Since that time, he has earned podium finishes, race wins and championships.
"I got to make the most efficient use of my time instead of just driving one (series)," he explained as to how he continues to fine-tune his craft as a racing driver. Even though he owns the team, Tucker is just one of the drivers and team manager David Stone oversees the operations and his "seasoned staff".
Level 5 Motorsports had and continues to have a very busy schedule in more than one series, yet what is unique for Tucker is that when the team entries two cars at an event, he does double-duty. In Saturday's race, Tucker will start in one of the team's Honda Lola prototypes as they chase for the LMP2 victory. Yet after his stint, he will climb into the cockpit of the other Lola.
Being fit is the only way any driver could accomplish the task. "I have always taken fitness seriously by working out on my own and with my "sports specific" trainer," he said. "I compete in pro racing with drivers that are younger than me and another reason that when I can drive on same weekend in another series, I take advantage of the extra training. When not racing, I am in my office so I stay committed to working out at least two hours per day."
To run for a world championship will not be easy.
Tucker had never attended a motor sport and "was not even a fan" but once bitten, he gives each series, each race event his full concentration to get the job done. He started by just enjoying driving a street Ferrari but once he ran his first race which he said "was kind of interesting, so that is how I got started."
In 2007, he won his first FCS race and just two years later, he scored a record 10 wins in one season. He has competed in the North America Ferrari Challenge World Finals and in 2008, he landed the double championship. It was also the year that Level 5 Motorsports was born and Tucker competed in his first sports car race.
Tucker just "focuses on what I need to do". He sharpens his skills by making the most of his time – again competing in other series at the same venue – as he stated, "skill sets in any sport is fundamental". While it appears he has already accomplished a lot in the sport of racing, Tucker is not done by any means as he continues to set new challenges.
The 2010 LMPC champion looks toward this year and the team's invitation to compete at the 24 Hours of Le Mans but that is just part of the goals for 2011. Level 5 Motorsports with Tucker, Christophe Bouchut and Joao Barbosa will take the No. 55 Honda Lola Coupe to Europe and China while they chase for the Intercontinental Le Mans Cup in the LMP2 class. Tomorrow's race kicks off this year's special challenge set up by the ACO. The team will also campaign the full season in the American Le Mans Series with both Level 5 prototypes.
"What I have told is that we are one of the first teams since 1984 to run a prototype for both an American series championship and a global championship in the same season," said Tucker.
"To run for a world championship will not be easy," Tucker said about the team's new challenge. "However I have two very experienced drivers with me who have raced on the European circuits. China is the one none of us will have raced on before."
As for Le Mans, the experience was a good way to get their feet wet before they run as a team this year. "Now we have a plan and what we need to do so we can aspire for a podium!" stated Tucker.

The battle for in-state supremacy once again went in the favor of Michigan State on Saturday as the Spartans manhandled Michigan in a 29-6 victory.
The Spartans' defense sacked Devin Gardner seven times and held Michigan to negative rushing yards as Mark Dantonio improved to 5-2 against the Wolverines.
Jeremy Langford had his fourth straight 100-yard rushing game and Connor Cook was 18 of 33 for 252 yards and a touchdown.
Michigan came out early and drove down to the MSU 22-yard line before a sack and good pressure on Gardner forced a field goal. Matt Wile knocked it through from 40 yards and gave Michigan a 3-0 lead after its first drive.
The Spartans came back with a big play on their first drive with a throwback to fullback Trevon Pendleton who ran for 49 yards down to the Michigan 26. The Spartans drive stalled and Michael Geiger knocked through a 40-yard field goal with 9:10 to go in the first quarter.
Brendan Gibbons gave Michigan the lead with a 39-yard field goals with 3:22 left in the second.
The Spartans responded with a long touchdown drive which ended with a 14-yard pass from Connor Cook to Bennie Fowler in the corner of the end zone for a 13-6 lead going into halftime.
The Spartans opened the second half with an impressive drive down to the Michigan 18 before a false start by Michael Dennis moved the Spartans back and they settled for a 35-yard field goal from Geiger and a 16-6 lead.
The Spartans had opportunities to put drives together, but stalled into Michigan territory. After exchanging punts, the Spartans started a drive from their 47, but Cook's pass for Josiah Price was intercepted by Raymon Taylor who returned it to the MSU 40.
The Spartans defense came up strong on the following three plays, taking Gardner down for a loss of 5 before back-to-back sacks forced Michigan into a punt from its 38 on fourth-and-31.
The Spartans took the following drive downfield for a 1-yard touchdown by Cook to put the Spartans ahead 22-6 with 10:31 to go.
The drive was keyed by a third-and-11 conversion where Cook was forced out of the pocket but threw a perfect touch pass to Bennie Fowler down to the Michigan 9-yard line.
The Spartans put the icing on the cake when Darqueze Dennard intercepted Gardner at the MSU 3-yard line.
Eight plays later, Langford scampered in from 40 yards out to put MSU up 29-6

CFX-5: Monitoring values
Hi all,
Is there a way to output a variable in a specified node or physical space along the solution in CFX-5? In CFX-4 is possible due the following features: "OUTPUT MONITOR POSITION" (physical coordinate) and "OUTPUT MONITOR POINT" (nodal coordinate). So, is there a similar procedure in CFX-5?
cfd guy
Re: CFX-5: Monitoring values
I was wondering the same thing. I have to create a point...effectively a line from the centre point to whereever, and then plot the value I want on an x-y plot. It will plot all the values from the centre point to the end of the line.
Re: CFX-5: Monitoring values
Monitoring points will be available in CFX-5.5 coming out this fall. There is no easy way to do this in 5.4.1.
Re: CFX-5: Monitoring values
Could you clarify for me a bit:
- Create a point where?
- Create a line where?
- What will plot values from the center to the end of the line?
I have a feeling you might have misunderstood the original question.

Description: Heinz Kohut, one of the most influential psychoanalysts of the twentieth century, developed the concepts and theories of self psychology. This posthumous book presents his writings and teachings, about the role of the individual, as well as of the "group self," in history, art, religion, and politics. Through the application of self psychology to literature and history, Kohut illuminates the role of the "nuclear self" in the hero and the tragic man, exemplified by Shakespeare's Hamlet, and probes the meaning of historical events, such as the rise of Hitler in Germany.Included are previously unpublished essays on courage, leadership, and the self in society, earlier published papers presenting the theoretical basis of Kohut's ideas, and transcripts of conversations between Kohut and Strozier about cultures as interpreted by depth psychology.Psychoanalysts, as well as historians and others interested in the history of ideas, will welcome the publication of Kohut's last work.

"Benno" the Belgian Malinois visited the vet after eating 23 live rounds of 308 caliber ammunition.
The veterinarian removed 17 rounds from Benno's stomach during surgery but left two that were located in his esophagus, which the dog "was allowed to discharge on his own."
According to owner Larry 'Sonny' Brassfield, the Arkansas pooch has a bad habit of eating bizarre objects. The Baxter Bulletin compiled a list of Benno's unusual diet:
- Stuffed animals
- Rubber toys
- Coins
- Cloth
- Rocks
- Tennis Shoes
- Marbles
- Magnets
- Hair brush
- Drywall (yes, he literally ate a piece of wall)
Veterinarian Sarah Sexton told The Baxter Bulletin:
"We said in school there's what's in the books and there's what you see in the real world. This is something they certainly did not cover in school I've had dogs eat things before, mostly stuffed toys. Once I had one swallow a hearing aid but I think this takes the cake."
Brassfield says he won't leave ammo lying around anymore, but isn't too hopeful the four-year-old dog will stick to eating dog food just yet.

To not allow my friends to use my house for a party?(173 Posts)
I have a friend, let's call her Rose, and she is always volunteering me for things and putting me on the spot with people. Usually this means I end up (resentfully) going along with things I have no wish do do and sometimes this means I say 'no' to things and have people think I am a bit of a cow. I hate that I am always being put in these situations not of my own creation.
Example 1 of Rose's behaviour - I bought a new dress for an important work event. It was way too expensive but I loved it and knew I would be wearing it for years. Another friend was going to a posh wedding and didn't have anything to wear. 'Don't worry,' Rose said. 'Giant Haystacks has just bought a lovely new dress. She'll let you borrow that.' So even before I had worn the dress myself I had to lend it to someone else or look unreasonable.
Example 2 of Rose's behaviour - Another friend was going away on holiday for two weeks and wanted someone to pop into her house and feed her cats. 'Don't worry,' said Rose. 'Giant Haystacks works from home. She'll be able to pop over twice a day and do this. Why don't you ask her?' On this occasion I refused (and felt terribly guilty) but the friend lived miles away and I am massively allergic to cats. You could see the friend thought I was being a selfish cow as Rose had made out to her that this would be no problem for me.
The latest event might just be the last straw. Another friend wants to have a massive barbeque and garden party for her husband's fiftieth birthday but only has a small back yard. 'Don't worry', said Rose. 'Giant Haystacks has a great big garden. Why not hold the party at her house? That way you can make it a surprise party.' The two of them planned away and presented the whole thing to me as a fait accompli. The thing is, the Monday after the party I have an important work deadline to meet and I know I will need to spend that whole weekend working. I told them this and Rose said ( I am not even joking here) 'Well, you could just stay in your bedroom. We'll do all the work.' I couldn't believe the nerve of this and still said 'no' and now the friend is acting like I am the bitch who is spoiling her husband's big birthday plans. I was so annoyed that they had spent a couple of weeks planning a party at my house without even thinking they had to ask me first.
Rose is an old friend but not someone I feel I have anything in common with anymore. She makes a lot of demands on me and my time and places a lot of expectations on me. She seems to think that as I work from home my time is her's and doesn't appreciate that I am not always available to socialise with her whenever she wants me to. AIBU in wanting to shake her off and how do you think I could do this?
So many people suggesting the OP should bitch about this woman behind her back, instead of simply telling her assertively that there's a problem. At least tell her to her face first, before taking the
coward's way out backbiting and cutting-off route!
fair point Wbdn28 but to be fair Rose is offering the OP's property our behind her back.
I would suggest doing both- saying to Rose you are not on but also letting other people know she is not happy for Rose to lend her stuff out and finding out how other people feel about it instead of assuming everyone else is fine about it and she is the odd one out.
Lightbulb moment.
Is Rose actually your mother/big sister/MIL?
Any of these would think it was just fine to tell random strangers they could use my garden/dress/kidneys, without asking first.
Crikey, I would go ballistic if a relative did that to me. I mean, with non-family members one might feel a bit constrained in the telling-off, but family? Hah!
I'm not saying I'd be happy about it, Eldritch -- just that I wouldn't put it past them!
Oh, sorry, I wasn't implying you were being weedy about it at all. I just read your post and thought of evil SIL (the only one who would pull a stunt like that, thank goodness) and imagined how much bigger-than-a-nuclear-explosion my reaction would be!
Sorry - haven't read the whole thread but I think you need to bat it all back at her and if anyone asks you, say: Is this Rose again? She's always volunteering me for things I can't do without asking me. I'm afraid this won't be possible but maybe Rose herself can give you a hand with feeding your cats, lending you clothes, throwing your husband a surprise party.
Then just tell her to always check with you first before volunteering you. She sounds a bit daft.
Wow! What a thread.
I hate Rose. She sounds like an effing nightmare.
She sounds toxic. I think she's displaying the control she has over you. She wants to feel like she has you under thumb and by getting you to do things for other people she is displaying to them that she is the boss of you.
I think you have to get yourself good and angry. Tell her it's completely unacceptable for her to volunteer you and your things and that if she carries on you'll have to cut her out of your life.
And when you have said no to your other "friends" if they haven't been completely MORTIFIED by their assumptions then they are hideous too.
Lancelottie * maybe Rose is your SIL
Behind-the-back bitching is required, to cover all the people Rose might impose on Haystacks; otherwise, it's just catching up with her spree!
Haystacks, may I just note that you did a great thing in naming this person Rose: so generous to allow us all this punning fun! <kudos for "Roseputin" emoticon>
ive had this before, you just have to be firm and say no
it does make you feel like a bitch
and tell rose your perfectly capable of volunterring yourself for things if you wish to
Is this thread for real? OP, are you, Rose and the wife-of-the-man-whose-fiftieth-is-imminent all fifteen years old?
Rose is a selfish nutcase.
The proper response to anyone who tries to emotionally blackmail you with "This could be my last Christmas" is "I shall miss you...can I have the good china/silverware/Picasso original once you are gone?"
The thought of Giant Haystacks buying a new dress and lending it out for a wedding has cheered me up no end
Ditch Rose. Even if she is your mother.
I think you should email her a link to this thread, tell her its about her and then maybe she'll realise she is teensy bit unreasonable
I do think that you should turn it round on her...
No, that's not convenient for me - however, I'm sure that you, Rose, could accommodate it in your garden / have something suitable in your wardrobe / could go round instead ....
I wish the OP would come back to respond
Start volunteering rose for things. Here I've said you will bake a cake for little toms birthday tomorrow etc
Also when people approach you saying that rose suggested you do x or x, roll your eyes and explain that and is constantly putting you forward for things you can't do and she just won't stop
Bleedin' nora! What is the matter with people?
Grow a backbone and stop letting her walk all over you. She obviously doesn't give a fig how you feel about offering to loan your new dress/garden to random people. Why should you care if you offend her?
You just don't need people like this in your life.
Bit annoying all the people telling OP to stop being a doormat, just say no, grow a backbone etc...
I think she is saying that she has been saying no (in 2 out of the 3 scenarios), its just that when she says no she is perceived to be the selfish one - lose-lose situation.
Sounds like it will be hard to shake off Roae if she's part of the wider group of friends. You have to have it out of her straight that these situations are unacceptable, maybe have this conversation in front of others - any reasonable person would see Rose is being an idiot.
Yes lets labour the etiquette of not offending rose.op is a well mannered doormat
Her inability to say no (for whatever reason) has meant she imposed upon,treated badly
Op do take a more assertive stand,and have think why what can you do protect self it be vulnerable to users
So ... what have you done about 'Rose', GiantH?
You need to be really angry about this, not meekly apologetic when she does it. This makes it look like you knew all along and are now backing out.
Turn it round and be offended each time she does it and say to her "What makes you think you have the right to offer this to people without even considering to ask me first?"
To the person involved "Look, I'm sorry this has left you in a tight spot, but Rose has done this kind of thing before, she didn't check with me first and its just not convenient. I'm sure you understand"
Rose now looks like the loon she clearly is.
To Rose when she pulls the "Is that any way to treat a cancer sufferer?"
retort with "How many cancer sufferers do you think would be disgusted with you using your illness as leverage?"
Seriously get rid. The other one sounds no better but may have been lead a merry dance by Rose. Tell her Rose never ran things by you once and you are fed up with her constantly assuming she has the ok to do this when you're the one who looks the twat when your standing there with it sprung on you in front of everyone.
If she has any decency she'll back down, if not that's bitch number 2 on the ditch list.

How many babies were born in Israel in the last Jewish year?
Israel's population grew over the last Jewish yearIn honor of the Jewish New Year, the Israel Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS) released new data that indicates that the Israeli population has grown over the past year. Israel's population currently stands at about 8.5 million.
As the Jewish New Year approaches, the CBS released new figures that indicate that the population in Israel grew over the past year. According to the data, during the 5776 Jewish year, about 189,000 babies were born in Israel and about 46,000 people died.
The data showed that Israel's current population stands at about 8.585 million. At the end of 2015, Israel's population stood at 8.463 million. Jewish people made up 74.8% of the population while Arabs made up 20.8%.
That data released by CBS today also indicates that young Jewish Israelis are waiting longer to get married, which means that more young Israelis between the ages 25 and 29 are single.
