What to do when she breaks up with you and you want her back...
I must say that your ideas have opened my eyes a lot, especially about the fear of rejection part. I have to say that although I'm a pretty handsome guy, I haven't been much successful with women until I've convinced myself to drop a little of my pride and stop fearing rejection. Believe it or not, I have wasted opportunities with extremely hot chicks who came on to me (not me) because of my wussiness (I am a funny guy, but lacked the confidence). It is true that it mostly turns out great if you just do it, not as negative as we think it is. So, thank you Carlos X. for your books.
My question is, I've been dating this girl and I must say I've became attached to her... slept with her for a couple of weeks until problems started to arise from her part not wanting to commit with me (although I never brought up the subject, neither did I say 'I like/love you' which was awesome if you ask me :P) The sex stopped, though the making out sessions continued looking at the fact that she was still attracted to me.
Then we had to travel (each to a different country) and we didn't speak (except for few emails) for 2 months. When I returned, she wasn't acting as she used to with me (I'm sure she talked to someone else, but I doubt others were as attractive to her as me) which really annoyed me.
I know she is still attracted to me, but I just couldn't make the move (wussiness? guess so) cuz I was simply disappointed with her behavior, she was clearly keeping stuff from me and acting a little distant though obviously attracted at times. I felt that she was disrespecting me since she was taking me for granted.
Anyway, recently a little incident happened which I took advantage of and showed her I was disappointed from her and told her that I won't tolerate any disrespect from her. I expected she would see her mistake, but she did not. And we aren't speaking at all now although we see each other everyday at university (I drop a Hi and a little smile if I'm close to her, but she just can't look into my eyes as if I hate her or something though I don't).
I wanted to get away from her so I would find new opportunities yet I don't want to let this relationship end just like this.
Should I make a move, or wait for her? (I'm a stubborn man, I can tolerate a lot) I feel that she's just acting tough, all an act.

Well, congratulations on recognizing your stubbornness.
Now get rid of that trait quickly, and no lame excuses about "that's who I am."
There's an old saying: "Do you want to be right, or be rich?"
That doesn't mean material wealth, mind you... Just that you will find that in order to get what you want from life, being "right" is not always the best strategy.
First of all, let's learn some lessons:
A) When the sex stops, your game is dying. The attraction is dying. This is completely unacceptable.
When you're being an Alpha Man, the sex never stops, because she's always rabid to have you because she never has enough of you.
B) She's NOT still attracted to you. Women who are still attracted to you do not do what she is doing. They don't stop having sex with you and they don't break up with you and then avoid eye contact.
You are projecting your attachment to her on her.
C) You're trying to revive something that has died. Move on.
I'm going to repeat my advice for you guys who are desperate to revive a relationship that's over:
The question of how to get back an ex-girlfriend or win back some woman you messed it up with previously is a bad path to follow for the following reasons:
1) You will never have the credibility you should with someone you've messed it up with. If, by some stroke of incredible technique you actually manage to get her back, she'll always be testing you, pushing your buttons, trying to see if you are for real. In the end, you'll wind up being a whipped pu ssy of a man, reduced to jumping through hoops, constantly trying to curry her favor. Don't do it.
2) You'll spend 10% of the energy on simply finding a NEW woman that you start things off RIGHT with. Why drive yourself crazy, risk stalking her, and otherwise turn yourself into a toad of a man to win back something you never really had? Do it right the first time.
3) By resorting to go back to a woman you once pursued, you're demonstrating a scarcity mindset. You are further reinforcing that you somehow cannot meet any of the other 2.8 Billion Women on this planet and must now recycle. Think bigger. (And this woman you're pursuing will sense your desperation and pull away even faster because of it.)
4) You are probably in the heat of delusion, thinking that this woman is somehow the "one" for you, and there is no other woman like her. The reality is that there are MILLIONS of women like her. Your desperation and insecurity are simply blinding you to options. Go out and meet 20 new women (for real, not half-heartedly) and I'll guarantee you that you won't think the same anymore. She's like a snowflake: unique and special - JUST LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE!
You'll further destroy what little self-dignity and confidence you have by continuing to travel down this spiral chute to hell.
Ironically, if you are to ever stand a chance of getting her back, this is the only way to do it. Only by demonstrating the ability to get on with your life will she ever find you attractive again.
But I can help you find the confidence you've lost and get you on the path to a new and better relationship...
I created the Alpha Man program just for this situation. It will rebuild your self-esteem higher than it was before. Better. Stronger. Faster.

Portugal Looks Back On 1 Year Since Its Bailout
By editor
Originally published on Wed May 16, 2012 6:47 am
In Portugal, austerity has meant up to a 30 percent pay cut for civil servants. Unemployment is at more than 15 percent, and the economy continues to shrink. The European Union recently warned the Portuguese people may have to sacrifice even more.

Found - young, injured crow...please help!Hello everyone,
Just as I figured, I was taking my daily walk around our office park and I ran across a young crow that I thought was dead on first look. As I looked closer, I realized that the little one was still breathing and injured. He appears to be quite young, although he has a majority of his feathers. I notice that as I approached him, he opened his beak wide and let out a "graaaaK" (which I assume is crow for hey there...feed me). He has a laceration on his right wing, which seems to be fairly deep. Both sides of the wing are heavily bruised, and he has blood caked on both sides. I can't tell if the wing is broken. He is extremely dirty and wet, so I can't really tell much else. I immediately took him in and placed him in a soft box. I took the rest of the day off and now have him isolated in my bathroom in his box posting this. I have a heating pad that I plan to place him on for a bit and then I would like to clean him up and treat his wounds with some peroxide to make sure they don't get infected. Poor little baby is mangled What do I do from here on out? I have no idea what to feed a young crow, and he is obviously very hungry. He doesn't have much meat on his bones, and seems quite sleepy. I think he's really run down. I have various types of tubes and droppers, and can run to the store to pick up anything I need to help him. Please help me! Here are some really bad pics of him. I'd try to get better, but my camera is on it's last legs. http://flickr.com/photos/8525789@N04...7600311297822/ |
Do you know of a Wild LIfe Care center in Seattle or an Avian Vet? That's where the bird needs to go. Crows are Federally protected and need to be in an approved facility. Looks to me like the baby needs antibotics. Temporarily you can feed moistened puppy chow. You want it to be soft and not hard at all. Discard unused portion. Scrambled egg .

I don't know of any off-hand, as I have had pretty bad experiences in the past with local shelters and birds. When I found my pigeon, every place I called told me rudely that they either couldn't take her or I could bring her in to be put down if I wanted to.
I'm in the process of trying to search online for a place I could call, and until then I have the baby on a heating pad in my bathroom. I'm just not sure if there is anything I need to do until then. I am going to step out to the store in a few minutes to pick up some pedialyte and food according to this article: http://www.birds.cornell.edu/crows/babycrow.htm#rehab If anyone knows of any reputable places in Seattle that I could call, please let me know. I don't want to get in trouble for having the bird, but I don't want to take him to a place that I know "has no time" for hurt birds either. |
A pigeon doesn't get the regard that true wildlife does. It is true that you'd need a good vet who does wildlife. Anyhow, he needs rehydration before food, elsewise the food could kill him. He sounds pretty bad, actually. The water given needs a bit of salt and maybe a bit of sugar or grape juice (some birds don't take some sugars very well and I can't remember where crows fall). You can use unflavored pedialyte. You don't want to give too much at a time. Do you think he'd drink on his own or is he so bad off that you'd have to gavage him?

Just got done helping a friend with some baby crows. They eat Eukanuba dog food (dry) soaked in water till real soft, hard boiled eggs cut up and a few canned chopped tomatoes. They do great on this diet. They open their mouth, you poke some in and they swallow. If he is really young, he will want feeding every couple of hours. Get him to a rehabber if you can.
The heating pad is a must. If he gets cold he won't eat. Warm him up well before feeding. Thank you for caring for this little crow. They are charming little guys in their way. Margarret |
Thanks a bunch guys. I just got back from the store, where I picked up some pedialyte, puppy chow, eggs, and liver.
I spoke with a representative from PAWS on the phone while I was in the store, and was really shocked to find that once again they really didn't seem to care a whole lot about the situation. The girl on the phone was extremely nonchalant, and basically told me that yeah, I could bring in the crow but there was no guarauntee of what will happen to him. She advised against even hydrating the bird, even after I mentioned that I would be unable to bring him in until late tonight or tomorrow (the shelter is a decent drive and my transportation just went back to the office). After trying to explain the situation, I just said that I would talk to my significant other and discuss what I should do. She let it go as basically "ok, good luck with that" and didn't press the topic further, which is such a maddening attitude. Anyways, after that, I think that the only thing I can do right now would be to keep him warm and try to get him to take in some pedialyte. If that goes well, I will cook him up a high-protein meal based off of the recipes you guys provided (and the one I found earlier). I also want to clean his wounds to make sure they don't get infected. I suppose after that, the only thing is to wait and see how he does? I'm really worried about him, and I'm annoyed that I can't seem to find a place around this area that actually gives birds the same respect that other creatures get. I'm half tempted to go back to school and do it myself. I'm beginning to think that I shouldn't have switched from medicine to computer science Anyways, thanks so much for the links and the advice. I will keep you updated on his status as the day goes on. |
Thank you so much Maggie I really appreciate that.
Do you guys have any idea how long I should wait before cleaning up this little guy's cuts? He's really filthy and I would love to clean him up and treat his cuts but I also don't want to shock him too much. I've gotten him to drink about a teaspoon of water (not much but a start), so I don't want to do anything that would make things worse. |
I'm sorry about the reaction you got from PAWS. I suspect that part of the reaction is due to the time of year with lots of new arrivals and a ton of calls. I'm not saying that it's ok but I do understand the feeling of being overwhelmed.
Does it look like he has cuts or does it look more like puncture wounds?

Hi Charis,
I inspected his wings again, and the wounded one appears to have a deeper, yet still superficial cut on the surface. The entire bottom portion of the wing is bruised and bleeding. I don't see any protruding bone, so I can't tell if the wing is broken or not. He's able to move it a bit, and has been perking up slightly since I got some pedialyte into him. He hopped onto the side of his box and is perched there listlessly. I've concocted a mixture of the puppy chow, eggs, bird egg supplement, and a bit of liver. It must taste as noxious as it smells because he'll get it in his mouth and then use his really long tongue to try to push every blob of it out...lol. I don't think he likes my cooking very much |
The liver is probably the culprit in the concoction. If he's even had liver before, it likely wasn't cooked.
Is he pooping at all?

Choosing between a public or private college is one fork in the road that many college-bound students face. There are certainly differences to consider, but surprisingly, cost might not be one of them!
When building your application list, you don't need to choose between public and private colleges. Including a mix of public and private colleges usually makes sense. When you are ready to narrow down the field, the considerations below can help.
Which College Is Cheaper?
Many people assume a public college is cheaper than a private college because tuition and fees are reduced for state residents. But the posted "sticker price" of a private college is rarely the real price. If a private college strongly appeals to you, consider waiting for its financial aid offer before making a final decision. More often than not, private colleges offer scholarships and grants that significantly cut your actual cost, even bringing it close to the cost of a public college.
Public college cost gets trickier for out-of-state students. Public colleges are largely supported by state taxes. This means that out-of-state students, whose families have not paid these taxes, usually owe higher tuition than in-state students. Paying out-of-state tuition often puts the cost on a par with the cost of private colleges.
The Public Admission Advantage
Public colleges give admission priority to state residents. Because there are fewer spaces for non-residents, requirements for out-of-state students can be more strict and admission more competitive. At highly selective state universities, however, your state residency won't give you as much of an edge because you are competing with many other highly qualified state residents.
Who You Rub Elbows With
One of the most important factors in choosing a college is how you feel about the students attending the school. Many private colleges attract students from a broad geographic spectrum. Others have a strong commitment to certain types of students, such as the historically black colleges or women's colleges. Virtually all public colleges have egalitarian missions that support student diversity, if not geographic diversity. Students will tend to be from your own state and perhaps nearby states.
How Long to Graduate
Savings from lower tuition may evaporate if you need more time to graduate than you planned. This unfortunate scenario can happen if it is difficult to get into the classes required for your major, a common situation at many public colleges. On average, private colleges show higher four-year graduation rates. You can look up a college's percentage of students graduating in four years using CollegeData's College Match.
Where You Want to Live
For some students, the location of the college is very important. Students wanting to attend college closer to home may find many public colleges within a few hours of their home town. Students wanting new environments and experiences may find that private colleges and even out-of-state public colleges fit their requirements.
Big Pond or Little Pond
Many students believe that private colleges, which tend to be smaller than public colleges, incur less red tape and offer more personal attention than public colleges. Students looking for a wide range of majors and lots of school spirit may assume a large public university is the best option. But in actuality, it is entirely possible to find small public colleges and large private universities that have these qualities. If college size is important to you, look carefully at each individual college and separate your assumptions from reality.
Prestige and Reputation
It is tempting to assume that an education at a selective private college is worth it because your degree will be more valuable. But in reality many highly successful people graduated from public colleges. And while many private colleges are highly prestigious, so are many public universities. If you are set on getting a name-brand private college degree, and plan to go on to a graduate or professional school, you can actually get the best of both worlds. Consider getting a lower cost undergraduate degree at a public college and attending a private college for your advanced degree.
Which Is Better?
Once you have considered how well a college meets your needs, whether it is private or public might make a difference. The academic resources and diversity of a large public college system can be tempting. Or the personality and location of a private campus might be right for you. What is most important is choosing the college that meets your highest priorities at an affordable cost.

A United States Air Force special ops agent betrayed by his own agency is forced back into active duty when a top secret stealth bomber is hijacked by a dangerous terrorist group in this action-packed tale of international intrigue starring Steven Seagal. John Sands (Seagal) is the kind of soldier that the military turns to when they need a man who can execute clandestine missions that are too sensitive for standard intelligence services. Now, despite the fact that Sands has continually risked his life in service to his country, the Agency begins to view him as a liability due to his sensitive knowledge he has gained during his many exploits. After being detained by the Agency and scheduled for a chemical procedure in which his entire memory will be erased, Sands escapes the top secret detention center and attempts to reintegrate himself into society. Sands' plan is soon foiled, however, when he defends himself during a liquor store robbery and is subsequently arrested by the local police. As a result of his arrest Sands is quickly located by the Agency, who present him with an opportunity to win his freedom back by locating a highly classified stealth bomber equipped with the latest cloaking technology. It seems that the powerful new weapon has fallen into the hands of violent terrorists who could prove to be a formidable threat to world peace. If Sands can find the jet and bring it safely back to the United States Air Force, the Agency will finally allow him to walk away a free man. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut
Reconstructed using archival film and sound elements long thought to be extinct, this special cut of Superman II pieces together unseen footage shot by Richard Donner in order to present the most comprehensive version of what was to be the original cut of the blockbuster sequel. As initially planned, the first two films were to be filmed back-to-back using the same sets and actors to save on production costs. However, with a budget escalating out of control and Warner Bros. breathing down the producers' necks, the decision was made to drop any further filming on the sequel in order to finish the first movie and usher it into theaters. Of course, the first Superman was a wild success, so then it was just a matter of ramping up production again, though this time, Donner was not asked back. Instead, producers went with Richard Lester, who had served them well with his Three Musketeers films. Decisions were made to drop most of the key scenes that were already in the can, including all of the footage featuring Marlon Brando as Jor-El, the Man of Steel's father. After completion, the sequel found much success in theatrical and home-video box-office returns, though that didn't stop die-hard fans from speculating what Donner's cut would have looked like. Once the Internet was spawned, Warner Bros. saw interest grow more and more for this alternate version, even prompting the company to send cease and desist letters to individuals who had posted a re-edit of the film using deleted footage taken from an alternate TV version from the U.K. With the release of Superman Returns, the company saw this as a chance to finally deliver what people had wanted for years and enlisted Michael Thau to oversee the restoration process. Under the tutelage of Donner's notes, scripts, storyboards, and the director himself, the new version was delivered to home audiences in 2006, thereby not only giving people a look into what could have been, but giving a director an unprecedented chance to realize a vision long thought lost in the annals of movie history. ~ Jeremy Wheeler, Rovi

After learning the secrets of manipulation, graft, and deceit while incarcerated, a recently released ex-convict sets into motion a complex revenge plot against the man who killed his sister-in-law and put him behind bars in maverick director Guy Ritchie's highly stylized crime drama. For seven long years, Jake Green (Jason Statham) has bided his time while learning the rules of the game from a chess master and a top con artist who shared adjacent cells. Macha (Ray Liotta) is the cold and calculated gangster who sent Jake up the river after ruthlessly ending the life of Jake's beloved sister-in-law. When Jake turns up at the casino and humiliates Macha on the floor for all to see, the seething gangster wastes no time in putting a hearty price on his old foe's head. Inexplicably saved from Macha's assassins by a pair who only identify themselves as Avi (Andre Benjamin) and Zach (Vincent Pastore), Jake isn't sure whether to trust his guardian angels or flee from them. The only thing Jake does know for sure is that his thirst for revenge grows stronger every day, and it won't be satisfied until Macha meets his maker. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Two men cut off from the world in different ways become unlikely friends and protectors in this offbeat action drama. Danny (Jet Li) is a physically powerful but emotionally stunted man; never given any sort of proper education, Danny has learned little in his lifetime but how to fight, and his minder, Bart (Bob Hoskins), treats him more like a guard dog than anything else, using him in illegal no-holds-barred brawls that earn Bart plenty of money but only reinforce Danny's violent alienation. When Bart is injured in an auto accident, Danny is left to fend for himself, and stumbles upon Sam (Morgan Freeman), an elderly piano tuner who has lost his sight. Sam is the first person to treat Danny with kindness, and the music he plays soothes the troubled soul of the fighter. However, Danny's fighting skills soon come in handy when Sam runs afoul of a pack of small-time crooks who believe he knows too much about their operations. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Wesley Snipes stars in this pulse-pounding thriller set in the former Soviet Union. A once high-ranking Soviet military leader has resurfaced in Chechnya, where he has been consolidating his power with remarkable success. United States intelligence discovers he's been able to construct a thermonuclear weapon from materials scavenged from an abandoned nuclear power plant, and he and his soldiers have taken a handful of powerful citizens hostage. In hopes of preventing a global catastrophe, the military brings in Painter (Wesley Snipes), a special agent known as "the Marksman" for his talent in focusing in on the key elements of a crisis and resolving it. Painter and his crew attempt to get inside the nuclear plant-turned-terrorist base and rescue the hostages before U.S. forces begin staging a full-scale attack. But Painter's plan soon backfires when the military's operations don't go as planned, leaving him to wonder who set him up -- and why. The Marksman also stars Tim Abell and William Hope. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Snuff Movie
Snuff-Movie, an outing by the celebrated music video-director-turned-horror maestro Bernard Rose (Paperhouse, Candyman), references both the Charles Manson/Sharon Tate murders and Michael Findlay's notorious grindhouse film Snuff (1974), in its tale of a slasher movie director's involvement with off-camera butchering. Jeroen Krabbé stars as Boris Arkadin, the popular creator of stomach-churning cinematic gore fests. His life takes a dark turn late one evening in 1975, when, after a private screening of his latest opus, a group of maniacs turn up at his mansion and slaughter all of the overnight guests -- including Boris' pregnant wife, Mary (Lisa Enos). Cut to the present day, in London. A young actress, Wendy (also played by Enos), decides to audition for one of Arkadin's films, and accepts the director's subsequent invitation (despite the admonitions of her boyfriend, Andy) to stay at the Arkadin mansion overnight. Soon, Andy is wracked with horror to discover that additional murders are occurring and being broadcast live, online. But are these homicides real or simply staged contrivances for another film? Teri Harrison and Alastair Mackenzie co-star; Rose authored the script. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

Has a star's desire to fully embrace a sinister role led her into madness? Rebecca Fairbanks (Elizabeth Hurley) is a well-known actress trying to get her career back on track after taking several years off. Fairbanks is returning to the screen in a role she's long wished to play -- Belle Gunness, a notorious real-life mass murderer who went on a well-documented killing spree in the 19th century. As the film's shooting schedule wears on, Fairbanks becomes romantically involved with her leading man, Jake Fields (Jeremy Sisto), but Fields and his friends on the production staff begin to question her stability when she starts wearing her costumes at all times, living on the sets, and tries to live as the character of Guinness. Fairbanks' behavior becomes all the more disturbing when members of the crew start falling victim to a murderer. Coincidentally, The Method (also known simply as Method) was Elizabeth Hurley's first film project after taking a two-year break from her acting career following the birth of her son in the spring of 2002. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

An unpredictable black comedy with an epic scope, Emir Kusturica's highly acclaimed Underground takes a look at the modern history of Yugoslavia through the often absurd misadventures of two friends over several decades. The film begins in Belgrade in 1941, establishing the friendship between the gregarious Blacky and the more intellectual Marko during a drunken, late-night musical procession that establishes the riotous tone to follow. Fellow members of the Communist Party, the friends also share an involvement in shady business activities and an attraction for a beautiful actress. Soon, the chaos of World War II forces them to take refuge in an underground shelter with a variety of other townspeople. Years pass and the war ends, but Marko and the actress trick the others into believing that the war is still going on. Kusturica turns this inherently absurd premise into a vibrant portrait of the contradictory, foolish nature of war. Winner of the Palme d'Or at the 1995 Cannes Film Festival, the film received great acclaim on the festival circuit but had a hard time securing a release in the United States. ~ Judd Blaise, Rovi

The Return of the Musketeers
Richard Lester returned to his double-barreled successes of the 1970s, The Three Musketeers and The Four Musketeers, with Return of the Musketeers, a film that was inexplicably shelved for several years, making its belated premiere on cable television. Based on Alexandre Dumas's novel Twenty Years Later, the film takes place (appropriately enough) two decades after the death of Milady de Winter. Though Milady may have died, her nefarious schemes have been taken up by her daughter Justine (Kim Cattrall), who maneuvers with the conspiring Cardinal Mazarin (Philippe Noiret) to gain control of the crown through Queen Anne (Geraldine Chaplin). D'Artagnan (Michael York) calls for his old compatriots Porthos (Frank Finlay), Athos (Oliver Reed), and Aramis (Richard Chamberlain) to once again go "one for all and all for one." But complications set in when Athos and Aramis take sides with the crown and Athos' adopted son Raoul (C. Thomas Howell) falls in love in Justine. The film is dedicated to character actor Roy Kinnear who plays Planchet, who died in an equestrian accident during the production. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

After introducing how Santa and Mrs. Claus came to the North Pole and began their work delivering toys at Christmas time, this routine children's film segues into a story about an evil corporate magnate (John Lithgow). One of Santa's elves (Dudley Moore) goes to work for the nasty tycoon and invents a wild array of far-out toys. Then there is a little boy who does not believe in Santa Claus and a girl who finds out about the toymaker's plans to defraud his company. Santa's reindeer are a little under the weather, not to mention Santa himself. This labyrinth of subplots quickly draws attention away from the story, wherever it is. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

In a major departure from the tone of the preceding two Superman adventure films, this mix of vile deeds and fantasy heroics drops the "S" out of cosmic and goes for comic instead. Right at the starting gate, Gus Gorman (Richard Pryor) and a subsequent slapstick sequence upstage (Christopher Reeves again), who later develops an identity crisis. Gorman, newly trained as a computer whiz, starts working for a conglomerate run by the corporate nemesis Ross Webster (Robert Vaughn), intent on world domination. Gorman is sent to Superman's small town of Smallville to wipe out Columbia's coffee crop by fiddling with the computer side of a weather satellite. Clark Kent is in town for his class reunion, leading Superman to clash with Gorman, which in turn, leads Gorman to develop a hybrid red Kryptonite. Unwittingly, since Gorman's wits are always in doubt, the Red Kryptonite causes Superman to split into a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde schizophrenia -- but in two separate bodies. As the evil Superman swaggers around town, megalomaniac Ross Webster has other tricks in mind -- and in one of the more memorable action scenes (interspersed with a video game sequence), Superman is chased through the Grand Canyon by a fast-flying, very determined missile. Lana Lang (Annette O'Toole) is on hand for romantic interest (Margot Kidder only appears briefly -- she was growing tired of Lois Lane). ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

Between giving up his super powers, confronting criminals from outer space, and having problems with his girlfriend, it's a bad time to be the Man of Steel in this sequel to the 1978 blockbuster. When terrorists threaten to destroy Paris with a thermonuclear device as they hold reporter Lois Lane (Margot Kidder) hostage, Superman (Christopher Reeve) comes to the rescue and flings the weapon into space. However, its blast outside the earth's orbit awakens Zod (Terence Stamp), Ursa (Sarah Douglas), and Non (Jack O'Halloran), three villains from Superman's home planet of Krypton who were exiled to outer space for their crimes. Zod and his partners arrive on Earth and use their powers in a bid to take over the U.S., and then the world. However, when Lois realizes that mild mannered Clark Kent and Superman are actually the same person, he brings her to his Fortress of Solitude, where his decision to marry Lois costs him his remarkable strength. Without his super powers, how can Superman vanquish Zod and save the world? Gene Hackman, Ned Beatty, Susannah York, and Jackie Cooper return from the first film, which was shot at the same time as parts of the sequel. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Richard Donner's big-budget blockbuster Superman: The Movie is an immensely entertaining recounting of the origin of the famous comic book character. Opening on Krypton (where Marlon Brando plays Superman's father), the film follows the Man of Steel (Christopher Reeve) as he's sent to Earth where he develops his alter-ego Clark Kent and is raised by a Midwestern family. In no time, the movie has run through his teenage years, and Clark gets a job at the Daily Planet, where he is a news reporter. It's there that he falls in love with Lois Lane (Margot Kidder), who is already in love with Superman. But the love story is quickly sidetracked once the villainous Lex Luthor (Gene Hackman) launches a diabolical plan to conquer the world and kill Superman. Superman: The Movie is filled with action, special effects and a surprising amount of humor. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi

A poor commoner and a young prince each find out how the other half lives in this adventure story based on the classic tale by Mark Twain. Tom Canty (Mark Lester) is a young man from a laboring family who bears a striking resemblance to Prince Edward (also played by Lester), the son of King Henry VIII (Charlton Heston) and heir to his throne. Tom and Edward meet by chance, and they decide to exchange places briefly as a lark; Edward will get to live as an ordinary boy, and Tom will be able to enjoy the perks of royalty. But the two are separated before they can let everyone in on the joke, and Tom discovers as he pretends to be Price Edward that the castle is awash in corruption. Originally released as Crossed Swords, The Prince and the Pauper also features Oliver Reed, Raquel Welch, George C. Scott, and Rex Harrison. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

text: BARRIE - A Barrie couple is leaving for Guatemala and Honduras Thursday to visit two children they sponsor through World Vision. Greg and Eva Taylor will finally get to meet the two young girls they sponsor through the Christian relief agency and see first-hand what a difference their years of donations have made. "I've been involved with World Vision as a sponsor for 13 years. I started off when I was a university student, when I was 21. Throughout the years, we've been blessed financially," said the Bradford District High School alternative-program teacher whose wife is an educational assistant. With no kids of their own, the couple will see Maria Elizabeth, six, in Guatemala, who lives in a small village in a remote area, and Genesis, seven, who lives in an urban centre in Honduras. "I suspect (she lives in) a shanty town," said Taylor. The Taylors also plan to help capture the difference World Vision makes for children like Maria Elizabeth and Genesis. A member of the Barrie Photo Club, Greg considers himself a "serious amateur" photographer, while Eva enjoys focusing on shooting video. The images they capture will be featured in World Vision material and on Greg's blog on the World Vision site, he added. The couple returns July 22.

God made a little gentian;
It tried to be a rose
And failed, and all the summer laughed.
But just before the snows
There came a purple creature
That ravished all the hill;
And summer hid her forehead,
And mockery was still.
The frosts were her condition;
The Tyrian would not come
Until the North evoked it.

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- One of President Obama's guests at the State of the Union address this week was Desiline Victor, a 102-year-old Florida woman who waited in line for hours to cast her vote in November.
She was just one of many Americans who waited in long lines, or faced other obstacles, at the polls.
Now, the president is calling on lawmakers and election officials to do something about it.
"When any Americans, no matter where they live or what their party, are denied that right simply because they can't wait for five, six, seven hours just to cast their ballot, we are betraying our ideals," said President Obama.
At the State of the Union, President Obama announced a new bipartisan commission to try and make exercising the right to vote easier.
At the federal level, a new Senate bill will try to limit wait times to less than one hour.
Another proposal includes mandating online voter registration in states to streamline the process.

Oracle (ORCL) reports its fiscal Q4 that ended in May on June 23rd, a week from this Thursday, hence, analyst reports are trickling in with updates on the outlook for the quarter.
Citigroup's Walter Pritchard this morning writes that the company's "Exadata" dedicated hardware for massive database sifting is "seeing tremendous growth, with a very large deal in the tens of boxes signed last quarter," and that some market data that may have suggested a slowdown in Oracle's hardware business is not accurate and is "dated."
The consensus revenue estimate of $10.75 billion is probably too low for the quarter, he thinks: he's modeling $10.9 billion. Foreign exchange alone probably boosted revenue $100 million in the quarter, though rising expenses will have offset any profit upside, he thinks.
Lazard Capital's Joel Fishbein agrees hardware is under-appreciated at this point. He thinks it's too soon, however, to see much payoff from "Exalogic," Oracle's "cloud in a box" product of hardware and software for cloud computing.
Exalogic v1, which was shipped in December, should not have much of an impact this fiscal year, as the Oracle sales force is busy selling Exadata. Oracle has made great strides in transitioning to a direct hardware sales model and hardware sales should continue to stabilize as reseller agreements are almost undone by now. We believe that the large market opportunity for Exadata leaves plenty of opportunity for Oracle, despite potential disruption from emerging technologies such as that of Fusion-IO (FIO). Our Exadata market opportunity analysis only accounts for 15% penetration, which we believe is realistic in the short term.
Oracle shares this morning are up 41 cents, or 1.3%, at $31.59.

Mettenberger's LSU career ends with knee injury
BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) LSU has announced that Zach Mettenberger's playing career with the Tigers is officially over.
Mettenberger injured his left knee while unloading a 32-yard completion in the fourth quarter of No. 14 LSU's 31-27 victory over Arkansas last Friday, and LSU coach Les Miles confirmed the severity of the injury on Wednesday.
Shortly after Friday's game, Miles initially expressed hope that Mettenberger's injury did not involve any torn ligaments and that he'd be ready to return for a bowl game that the Tigers will likely play in January, depending on the bowl bid they accept this Sunday.

56% of women hope spouse's salaries will double theirs: survey
About 56 percent of Korean women hope that their spouse's salaries will be double theirs or more, a recent survey showed.
The survey of 255 single men and 255 unmarried women said 75.3 percent of all respondents expressed the hope that the salaries of the couple would be pretty much the same. The survey was jointly conducted by marriage agencies Bien-Aller and Feeling You from April 14 through April 21. Some 24.7 percent of those polled hoped that spouse's salaries would be less than theirs. But as many as 85.5 percent of women respondents said spouse's salaries should be higher than theirs, while 9.7 percent expressed hope that salaries of the couple will be pretty much the same. Meanwhile, Statistics Korea reported Thursday that the number of marriages involving couples tying the knot for the first time rose to a nine-year high last year mainly due to favorable demographic factors. According to the report, the number of men and women getting married for the first time reached 258,600, or 78.6 percent of all marriages last year. This is the highest percentage since 78.7 percent reached in 2002. "The increase of about 4,000 couples is mainly due to the rise in the number of women in the country in their late 20s, which is making it easier for men to find wives," an official at the statistical agency said. In the past, there were usually more men than women because families traditionally wanted boys instead of girls. The official said this development should carry over through this year before the gender imbalance widens again in 2013. Another development that helped push up the numbers of newlyweds was that the sluggish pace of economic growth, high consumer prices and spike in housing costs in 2011, had a less-than-expected impact. Overall, the number of people getting married in the country hit 329,100, up 3,000 or 0.9 percent from the year before. This marks the second year in a row that the number of people getting married rose compared to the year before. In 2010, marriages shot up 16,300 or 5.3 percent to 326,100, from 309,800 in the previous year when total number of people getting married contracted 5.5 percent. The report also showed the average age of men getting married for the first time reached 31.9 years, up 0.1 from the year before. For women, the average gain was 0.2 to 29.1 years. (Yonhap) |

When he cut Speedy Claxton's expiring, insurance-covered contract two weeks before the trade deadline, Larry Riley claimed he had everything he needed to make the trades he wanted to make. But now, reports are surfacing from Memphis papers and elsewhere that the Warriors initiated the Monta Ellis contract dump talks with the Memphis Grizzlies that would have landed OJ Mayo and Hasheem Thabust for Ellis. Memphis turned Riley's best offer down. So it would seem that Good Ol' Larry figured absofuckinglutely wrong when he Aw-Shucksed his way through that awful Claxton announcement a few weeks back. Actually, he was probably right. He knew he wasn't allowed to do anything.
Robert Rowell called Memphis up. Robert Rowell got shot down.
Now the Warriors will attempt useless damage control lying, dead wrong fan-baiting GQ Curry hype, and Raja Bell/Kelenna Azubuike courtside appearances (they've been absent for over a month- have they been fined?) to distract from....
The Monta Ellis situation.
Ellis has been linked to Memphis on and off for the last two and a half seasons and definitely wants to go. Ellis has already made the Warriors aware of his desire to be traded at their earliest convenience, like Stephen Jackson before him. The only questions are when will the Warriors make their characteristic no-value cash dump and will Ellis have to get fined for publicly stating his desires first?
Knowing the Warriors, yes. Yes he will.
Meanwhile, it's clear the Warriors found out the only teams dumping for expirings who would also talk to them were direct rivals. The Clippers and Kings both set up for major spending this offseason in what could be the greatest free agent class in league history. Tellingly, the idiotic PR plants the Warriors pay more than their international TALENT scouting division have come up with this genius spin bull shit:
The Knicks and co. are idiots for setting up to play the greatest free agent class in league history.
There's no guarantee of getting perfect Hall of Fame players by that plan so why try?!
I'm serious. This is actually what Robert Rowell thinks and actually what he wants you to believe.
It's over.

1/200 Chinese Navy DDG-139 Ningbo (Bronco)
The NINGBO is an improved russian Sovremnity class destroyer for the chinese navy. The defense and attack system is reportedly much better than the old Sovremnity 956E class destroyers. The Sovremnity956EM is armed with an improved 3M80M version of the Moskvit anti-ship missiles with a longer range. The main difference between the two is that the missile launching tubes on the chinese destroyers are longer than the ones on the russian ships to accommodate the increased size of the newer missiles. These launching tubes can be used to fire/store the original 3M80 as well. Moreover, the major difference outlook between both types is the helicopter hangar and the rear part of the ship. The DDG 139 Ningbo is the second ship of the new Sovremnity Class type 956EM destroyers. The first ship is the DDG 138 Taizhou.
This kit is the first Bronco model that passed through my hands. Compared to kits such as Tamiya, Hasegawa, Revel l and others, it was not an easy-to-assemble, everything-fits-kit. On the contrary, many parts had to be adjusted, entire decks and bulkheads/walls had to be shortened in order to make them fit together. Bronco also added photoetch railings with stanchions that required drilling holes for each stanchion, an impossible job that I abandoned after struggling for hours on the few railings of the monkey-bridge alone. I therefore ordered railings from GMM which were easy to handle with a much better result.
It would have been nice to have photoetch parts of the radar and I dont understand why any flag was included. I therefore painted the standard, supporting the model, entirely in the chinese navy colors in order to create a genuine chinese navy ambiance. I started this model more than a year ago, then abandoned the project during half a year due to lack of motivation resulting the inferior quality of the product and made a few smaller models during this time, and finally resumed the construction 3 months ago, until it was completely finished.
The result is all together quite satisfying.

Special Dead Review
Written by: gutterjim
Are you thinking about picking up Special Dead on DVD? Well DO IT! Special Dead takes place at Camp Special Dude, a ranch for the mentally handicapped. When a few new campers arrive at Special Dude, so do the undead! The campers and counselors have to fight to stop the outbreak and stay alive. As it says on Special Dead's imdb plot summary: "It's a campy stampede of blood, boobs and gore as some "very special" people show that they can kick some serious undead ass."
With that said let me get to reviewing this Zomedy! There is a really sharp picture during all of the daytime shots in the movie. Yet nights falls fairly early on in the film and most of the story takes place during the night. The picture is a bit grainy in the darker/nightime scenes but that just helps to set a creepy atmosphere. After a second viewing of Special Dead at a friends house on a huge HDTV I can say that the quality of the picture really stands out.
The make up effects for the gore and undead was pretty damn good, it's just gross enough for you to want to attack these zombies with a bar of soap and a hose. A few of the zombies reminded me of the look of Fulci's zombies in Zombi 2, Rotting and nasty looking!
The gore mixed with the humor very well. One nasty scene has a camp member joking about how stupid zombies are because he got bit by one, he then shows off his arm with an open gash and bubbling green blood inside, AWESOME. Another gore filled scene had me wondering why has quick set glue poured into a zombie's mouth never been used in a living dead story before? It seems like a logical way to stop a zombie from being able to bite you.
The sounds effects were spot on, A zombie gurgling with a mouth full of blood while it's face is getting smashed in, One of the counselors getting his face beaten against a tree while urinating, nasty flesh munching, and plenty of slashing, chainsaws and loud gunfire all sounded awesome. The soundtrack was just alright. A few rap songs felt out of place but then again im not a huge fan of hip hop. All the other music styles worked great with what was going on during the film. The metal tracks really pick up the pace and give energy to the zombie asskicking that going on. If there was a soundtrack available I'd would recommend picking it up also for the Andy Allen songs, his character dies off kinda early in the story which is ashame since he's a great guitar player and has some really funny songs.
All of the characters are unique and the acting felt genuene from everyone. The actors playing the "special" kids at camp Special Dude don't come off as wanting to make fun of the mentally disabled, their characters just have fun making fun of each other. Random comments and jokes from the "special" kids are hularious! "Pancake sized nipples" came out of no where and had me rolling on the floor. Is it wrong to laugh at how a mentally challenged person might normally act?
Everything in Special Dead was pretty faithful to zombie-lore except one scene where the leader, Mac, has the ability to stop the attack of a female zombie by simple giving her a kiss. That one threw me off a little but besides that I recommend this DVD to everyone that loves Shaun of the Dead, Fulci's Zombi 2, Dawn of the Dead, and The Ringer. Long live the Zomedy!

Coca-Cola bottler selects Coupa spend optimization software
Coca-Cola Bottling Co Consolidated (CCBCC), a US-based independent Coca-Cola bottler, has replaced its legacy e-procurement platform with Coupa Software's cloud-based spend optimization solutions.
Coupa's applications are expected to support CCBCC's 1,200-person user base in the field who rely heavily on iPads and iPhones to gain better control over procurement processes.
The technology company also integrated to the bottler's SAP ERP platform.
Coupa Software services, customers success and adoption vice president Ravi Thakur said, "The support phones were quiet on day one, which is a testament to the ease-of-use of Coupa's platform, and iPhone and iPad users immediately started placing orders for items they needed to keep their operations flowing."
CCBCC distributes and markets still beverages of The Coca-Cola Company, such as POWERade, vitaminwater and Minute Maid Juices To Go, and produces, distributes and markets Dasani water products under still beverage agreements.

How to Get the Most Money Selling Your Used Stuff on Amazon
We've mentioned before that Amazon is a great place to sell your used and unwanted items
We've mentioned before that Amazon is a great place to sell your used and unwanted items
Whether your DIY projects involve office supplies or pallets and secondhand wood, they all have to come from somewhere. In some cases they're not expensive to buy outright, but some materials can get pretty pricey. Here's how to find cheap raw materials for all of your DIY projects, large and small.
Dear Lifehacker,
I love my car, but it's getting on in years. It's paid off, which is great, but even routine maintenance now runs me a few hundred bucks, and the mechanic is always upselling me on additional repairs that are hundreds more dollars. Is it time to just retire my ride and buy a new car, or should I stick…
Dear Lifehacker,
I'm moving into a new apartment, and I don't really have a lot of furniture to my name. Should I just head out to Ikea,buy everything I need, and save some cash? Or should I hit the big furniture showroom and deal with making appointments for something that'll actually last? Is there any way I can get …
Dear Lifehacker,
I don't have a lot of money to buy presents this year, but I love to give them. I have some stuff I'd like to give as gifts—some are gently used, others more well used—and I was also thinking about buying used items on Amazon as gifts. Is this appropriate?
Pre-Owned Presents
It's smarter to buy your tuxedoes, hats, cashmere sweaters, and certain other upscale clothing items used, whenever possible. Not just because used is cheaper than new, but because, as men's clothing blog Put This On explains, trends in clothing manufacture have left us with used goods that are better than new.
Dear Lifehacker,
I need a laptop, but I don't want to drop a bunch of cash on one. I've seen some lightly used ones on Craigslist that look good, and a few friends have offered to sell me their last-year's models now that they've upgraded. Is there anything wrong with buying last generation's model, slightly used?…
When you do your spring cleaning, you're undoubtedly going to come across things that you want to get rid of, and other things you'll want to replace. Before you spend big bucks at the department store and toss the old stuff in the dumpster, you can save some money on your replacements by visiting a local second-hand…

Comments about Kuhl Stuttgart Sweater - Men's - 2012 Closeout:
I really liked the look of this item and was excited to get it using the 20% discount on top of the outlet discount; however, I was disappointed by the fit. It was far baggier than I was expecting. I'm 5'11 150lb and have many items from Kuhl and take a medium in them all, but this was loose in the chest and even wider in the waist (did not seem to taper at all). It just did not hang right. Fabric and design (other than the cut) were stylish, warm, and good quality - granted I cannot comment on the durability since it was never really worn or washed as I returned it.
Maybe a size down would have been better, but I decided look for something different.
Service and delivery comments:
Delivery was great and on time (if not early)

Comments about Kuhl Stuttgart Sweater - Men's - 2012 Closeout:
I own the Ibex Nomad black men's wool hoody, and I wear it constantly. My wife suggested that maybe there was some other wool light jacket in a different color, but I had a hard time finding anything else that was all wool. But then I found this one on sale at REI!
It has no hood, and it's navy blue with a stripe instead of solid black, so it has a different look than my Ibex. It is thicker wool than my Ibex, which makes it slightly warmer.
It is solidly constructed, and went through the wash (in cold, no dryer) just fine.
If you haven't "gone wool" yet, you should! Wool is awesome, and so is this jacket.

Comments about Kuhl Stuttgart Sweater - Men's - 2012 Closeout:
This sweater is amazing. The design is definitely for tall German people (super long sleeves) but it is worth the tradeoff for the quality of the wool and the feel of the sweater. It's super warm and a really nice weight and it always looks good. The pockets are a really nice feature. I had my first one for a few years and it definitely aged but it still looked nice after tons of wear. I wouldn't recommend washing it that often. When you do wash it you should hand wash it. It's worth the extra care.
