JERUSALEM (Dec. 19)
The British administration moved today to strengthen its defenses in Palestine by announcing plans for a volunteer force. The Jewish Agency for Palestine immediately started recruiting for the force.
A draft ordinance published in the Palestine Gazette said that the new unit, whose strength will be fixed later, will be used "to assist the regular forces in all measures required for prosecution of the war or ensuring internal security."
The force will be divided into combatant reserve groups under a commanding officer to be appointed by High Commissioner Sir Harold A. MacMichael. Its maintenance will be defrayed from Palestine revenue.

How ironic it is, that in my great campaign to bring others back, I must leave. For how long? I know not. Thus it is the same as my other long leaves of absence...
Do not worry for me, for I will not be gone for long. Though it may seem that way, in retrospect you will know it as short. Such is the way...
But as with all of my absences, I hope that at least some form of my legacy would shine through. Do not let others fall by the wayside. Do not look over the traveler who lies in the ditch. Seek them out. Give to those who have little. Only you can make that difference. Only you can change this place for the better. The only difference, is the one YOU make. Never forget that. True, there are others who may do good to those who need it, but when the word "you" is heard, they still hear their name. We are all equals. We are all striving for a greater horizon. Why must we not work together to reach that horizon?
Life is what you make it. Your reactions are YOUR reactions. They are not the actions of others.
Some walk slower; do not pass over them. Help them find the horizon.
Do not be afraid to help others. Some opportunities come to us in a moment, and leave us in another...
Do the brave not know fear? Are the courageous strangers to it? No, for they overcome it. A brave man sees fear and does not pause. He sees it, and recognizes it. He does something about it.
Have faith in others and all things.
Hope for the best in others and in all things.
Be charitable to others and in all things.
Live with kindness in your hearts.
Be grateful.
Be giving.
Remember kindness.
Remember love.
Remember these things, and live them. You're lives shall be greatly profited. You shall see and know a difference in your lives. You will make a difference.
Do not let this fall on deaf ears. My efforts would be for folly if such becomes the case. Please, I urge you to remember and do these things.
See you on the other side.

Whether you're off to the beach, the mountains or the lake, with a little planning, you can eat healthy and still enjoy your vacation.
Avoid all-or-nothing thinking
While you may be committed to eating healthy while at home, vacation can often become an excuse to splurge and overindulge. But overeating and choosing high calorie, high fat foods that you wouldn't normally eat can leave you feeling bloated and uncomfortable. Instead of thinking of vacation as a total break from your normal healthy eating pattern, think of it as an opportunity to incorporate favorite treats in moderation into your normal diet.

Treat yourself once per day
Going to the beach and passing on your favorite fried shrimp or denying yourself an ice cream cone with your kids would be unthinkable! Allow yourself one treat or indulgence per day, but make smart choices at your other meals. If you go out for pancakes for breakfast, choose a light salad or sandwich for lunch. This plan will allow you to enjoy favorite splurges without significantly exceeding your calorie limit each day.
Related Link: How Many Calories Do You Really Need?
Fill up on fruits and veggies
Fresh fruits and vegetables are naturally low in calories and fat and high in filling fiber. Start your meal with a salad instead of reaching for the breadbasket to fill up on less calories. Just be sure to limit high calorie toppings like cheese, and limit the amount of dressing you use. When eating out, ask to substitute steamed veggies or fresh fruit in place of high-calories sides like French fries and creamy coleslaw. Reach for fresh whole fruits, such as apples, bananas, pears and oranges for a portable snack to take to the beach, on a hiking trip, and wherever your adventures may take you. Aim for five servings of fruits and vegetables daily to balance out higher calorie indulgences.
Add in activity
There are endless fun and family-friendly ways to be active while on vacation. If you're sightseeing, walk rather than taking a bus, enjoy a walk on the beach after dinner or ride bikes in the park. Increasing your activity level above your usual will help compensate for any extra calories you consume, and you won't even realize you're exercising.
Focus on fun, family and friends
Instead of planning your vacation around food, focus on enjoying time with loved ones, fun activities and beautiful scenery. After all, these are the things that make a vacation special.

On January 15th 2012 CountDown Events was thrilled to participate in Engage at The Vancouver Club, a boutique bridal showcase created to inspire Vancouver brides.
CountDown Events, in collaboration with Granville Island Florist, Upright Décor, and Wintons Social Stationery designed this beautifully decorated table with a fresh colour scheme of white and cream, with accents of silver and crystal. The flowers were designed to wow at first sight with over the top, overflowing and lush arrangements.
Like decadent floral drapery, this cascading waterfall design used an assortment of parrot tulips, hydrangeas, roses and ranunculus. Notes of silver were introduced to emphasize the grace and elegance of the table with a luxurious flower runner and multitude of candles across the table; this design inspired luxury and opulence for every guest in the room.
Finishing touches like the Chiavari chairs and the romantic patterned Lace Applique stationery made this design perfect.
CountDown Events had an amazing time conversing with brides and grooms as well as other great exhibitors who we have worked and collaborated with many times before such as; Granville Island Florist, Upright Décor, Wintons Social Stationary, Elsa Corsi and Blush Bridal.
If you would like to stay in touch with this timeless venue please visit their website at VancouverClub.com and be sure to follow them on Twitter @VancouverClub and us @CountDownEvents as well as Facebook to learn of other fabulous designs we will be producing.

The Nordam Group has broken new ground in Brazil. In July, the Tulsa, Okla. aerospace products company celebrated the opening of a new cabinetry shop in São José dos Campos as a joint venture with Rio de Janeiro cabin completion specialist Jet Star Aeronautic Interiors.
The 20,000-sq-ft facility will allow Nordam to support its existing cabinetry program for the Embraer Legacy 600. Nordam has been building Legacy 600 cabinetry at its Tulsa plant and shipping the components to Brazil for Embraer to install. "Working with Embraer on the Legacy 600 interiors, it makes a lot of sense to be in Brazil," said Gary Ball, v-p and general manager of Nordam interiors and structures.
According to Nordam, while the new shop will focus initially on Legacy 600 cabinetry, it is keeping an eye on Embraer's plans to expand its executive jets division. "Several of Embraer's new aircraft, such as the Lineage 1000 and the Phenom 100 and 300, are programs [being targeted] as potential growth opportunities," said Ball. (See "Embraer no longer a one-trick pony").

Bucs could be U.K.-bound
The Bucs have confirmed they are one of four teams to have been approached by the NFL about possibly playing in the United Kingdom this fall, an opportunity Tampa Bay would welcome.
"The NFL has informed us that we are being considered as one of the teams to participate in next season's international regular season game in the U.K.," team spokesman Jeff Kamis said. "With the NFL already having awarded Tampa next year's Super Bowl, playing in an overseas game in the same season would provide even more worldwide exposure to the Tampa Bay area."
An official announcement is expected during Super Bowl week in Phoenix.
The other candidates, according to ESPN, are the Saints, Chiefs and Seahawks. The site of the game hasn't been announced, but the Dolphins and Giants played in London's historic Wembley Stadium in October. The Bucs would seem a logical candidate given the fact the Glazer family also owns historic soccer club Manchester United. But the Bucs could potentially receive a cold reception in England, where the Glazer family is disliked by many because the Brits don't appreciate an American family owning one of their most beloved soccer clubs.
The Bucs play each of the other three candidates in 2008, but it's unlikely the league will pair two division opponents in an overseas game. The Saints are also in the NFC South. Playing them overseas would create a scenario where one team will play one of the two games against that division opponent at home while the other played in the U.K. Thus, the Bucs versus Saints seems like an unlikley matchup. It's believed the game will be a AFC-NFC matchup.
It will interesting to see which team is designated the home team in this game and how season tickets will be dealt with. If a home game is moved overseas, it's not realistic to expect many local fans to be able to attend the game. Whether and how they would be compensated is something we'll likely learn later.
The NFL intends to continue to make a push toward globalization, and playing regular-season games overseas is a big part of the effort. It's expected the Buffalo Bills will play a regular-season game in nearby Toronto this fall.
If selected, this would be the Bucs' second foray outside the U.S. In 2003, Tampa Bay played the Jets in a preseason game in Tokyo.

HOUSTON - A multi-million dollar project to revitalize a historic Houston neighborhood is complete. Improvements were made to Houston's East End community, and Friday the finished project was revealed.
The shops, eateries and landscaping is bringing new life to this community and the new esplanade is the crown jewel. The design not only celebrates the culture of the East End, it will also be used as a focal point to attract vendors and tourists to this area.
"I think it's a beautiful thing that they've done here. It's good for the community and it's very attractive," said resident Helen Perez.
Over the last 50 years, Perez has seen a lot of changes to the East End. On Friday, the change she sees on Navigation Boulevard near downtown makes her very happy.
"It's nice that they thought about the people in the community," she said.
The three block long esplanade has been years in the making and now it is officially open for business. The more than $5 million project is meant tie one of Houston's historic neighborhoods together, while breathing new life into the community.
"We're able to have free standing booths for people to sell their goods and services. Really make it a livable space where people can walk," said Frances Castaneda Dyess with the East End Chamber of Commerce.
"Concentrate on this three block area of Navigation Blvd. and turn that into kind of a catalyst for redevelopment of the whole area," said Jim Hill with Civic Design Associates.
The event was attended by state and congressional leaders. But no one was more happy to see the new park benches and sculptures mixing with more than 100 year old oak trees than Perez.
"It's good to see something happening in this part of town," Perez said.
And the esplanade will get a proper christening when the second annual East End Street Fest runs Saturday from 11am to 8pm.

Letters Home From Congress
Collection Overview
This collection features letters home from Warren R. Austin (Senator, 1931-1946), Jacob Collamer (Representative, 1843-1848; Senator, 1855-1865), and Samuel C. Crafts (Representative, 1817-1824; Senator 1842-1843). The letters document travel to and from Washington by horse, boat, train, and airplane; lodging in boarding houses, hotels, and homes; social life in Washington; significant local and national events; and legislative issues under consideration in Congress. Austin's letters are particularly strong in their coverage of his frustration at being a minority Senator during the era of Roosevelt and the New Deal; his activities on the Judiciary Committee; and foreign affairs questions such as the Neutrality Act. The letters of Crafts and Collamer both extensively cover the question of slavery, discussing Missouri statehood, John Brown, the annexation of Texas, and the Civil War. All three Congressmen frequently discuss questions regarding appropriations and the Federal budget. Biographical information is available from the Biographical Directory of the United States Congress, at: http://bioguide.congress.gov/biosearch/biosearch.asp

Colorectal Diseases
Having irregular bowel movements
I normally have a movement every 3 to 4 days and it fills the toilet. I am on a very high fiber diet. The movement is very soft to loose and lots of mucus. What can I do?
If this is your normal pattern, and has been for a long time, no need to worry- unless you are having anal pain, abdominal pain, or bleeding.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 10/6/2014 (1166 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Two teenage boys have been arrested following a crime spree in the Wildwood Park area.
The crimes took place in the first three weeks of May. A number of garages and vehicles were broken into, resulting in a significant amount of stolen property and damage. Among the items stolen include bicycles, jewelry, cash and a cell phone.
Police indicate the two youths were identified and arrested through the 'Project Comet' initiative, which promotes community engagement and involvement throughout an investigation.
The two boys, aged 14 and 17, face numerous charges.
Both have been remanded into custody.

- Details & Specs
Browning® BLR Lightweight '81 7mm-08 Remington® Lever Action Rifle
With a timeless beauty that's more than skin deep, the BLR Lightweight '81 is ready and waiting to be your lever action hunting rifle. The gloss finish on the straight-grip walnut stock contrasts beautifully with the deeply polished blue finish. But, like we said, the beauty goes much deeper than the surface.
Each barrel is triple-checked for straightness, then individually finished with a hand-reamed chamber, making for tighter tolerances and precise headspace. The rotating multi-lug bolt head offers maximum-strength lock-up. And the generously-sized ejection port and drilled-and-tapped receiver makes it a perfect match for any scope you choose. This is what a serious lever action rifle should be, and what every other lever action wishes it was.
But we've barely scratched the surface... read on for more on what makes the BLR Lightweight Lever Action Rifle one of the most versatile and trusted hunting rifles in the USA.
- The button-rifled barrel is triple-checked for straightness and interior finish, and then air-gauged to ensure a consistent diameter
- The barrel's target-type crown enables a more uniform release of gas as the bullet exits the muzzle, helping prevent any unwanted shift in bullet trajectory. The barrel crown is recessed to help protect it from accidental impact damage that can degrade accuracy
- Low-profile adjustable square notch rear sight and a high-visibility front blade with gold bead fitted on a raised ramp-style base
- Richly blued steel finish on all external surfaces
- Aircraft-grade alloy receiver is precision machined to provide outstanding reliability and years of dependable service
- Lightning fast, glass-smooth rack and pinion lever action
- Rotating multi-lug bolt head locks into the barrel extension to produce bolt-action accuracy and magnum-level strength
- Strong enough to use today's most popular magnum cartridges
- Generously-sized side ejection port allows fired cases to instantly clear the action without hitting you or your scope
- Folding hammer provides an added measure of safety when the hammer is at half-cock, having two positions in that mode so the status of the rifle can be instantly seen and felt
- The trigger is unique in that it travels along with the lever as it's cycled, meaning that pinching your fingers between the lever and trigger on closing the action is a thing of the past
- Fingerpiece is nice and wide with vertical friction ribs to prevent your finger from slipping, giving you more precise trigger control for those demanding long-range shots
- The detachable steel box magazine makes for quick reloading, both in the field and on the range
- Unlike lever actions with tubular magazines, the BLR's detachable steel box magazine lets you use aerodynamically-superior pointed bullets, which opens up a whole new world of ballistic performance that is usually found in bolt-action and autoloading rifles
- Stock sculpted from fine walnut and the cut checkering in the grip and fore-end is crisply executed for lasting good looks and a more solid grip
- Well-formed recoil pad helps reduce felt recoil and flinching
- Steel sling swivel studs are pre-installed for easy mounting of your sling or bipod
- Drilled and tapped for a scope

Longreach Queensland
Longreach is made from the former Shires of Longreach, Ilfracombe and Isisford including the towns of Longreach, Ilfracombe, Isisford, Emmett and Yaraka.
The Longreach Regional Council covers an area of 40,638 square kilometers and has a total population of approximately 4700.
The Story of Longreach
Prior to 1860, the land around what is now the Shire of Longreach was peopled by the Iningai, Malintji and Kunngkari.
In 1860, William Landsborough and Nat Buchanan, searching for new grazing land, came upon this area and saw in it a potential not appreciated by former explorers. The verdant Mitchell Grass plains, interspersed with broken boree, gidyea scrub and Flinders grass, and the Thomson River, which had been named after Edward Deas Thomson by Edmund Kennedy in 1847, were deemed suitable for their pastoral aspirations.
In 1863 a pastoral lease was granted to the partnership of the Scottish Australia Company, William Landsborough, Nat Buchanan and Edward Cornish. This lease, named 'Bowen Downs', covered an area of approximately 2000 square miles and was eventually stocked with about 350,000 sheep and 35,000 cattle.
In 1872, following management difficulties, not the least of which was the infamous cattle theft by Harry Readford, the company divided 'Bowen Downs' in two. 'Mt Cornish' covered an area of approximately 2,500,000 acres, extending from near Muttaburra to below Longreach. It was first managed by E. R. Edkins (a family name synonymous with the history of Longreach), who had driven 10,000 cattle down from the company runs near Burketown, which had been wiped out by black fever in 1871.
In 1887 'Bowen Downs' was resumed and blocks of approximately 40,000 acres were thrown open for selection. Many of these selections have changed ownership a number of times since then, but descendents of the original selector families, such as Avery, Coxon, Coade, Edkins and Haywards, can still be found in the district.
In 1886 the railways were surveying for the rail line west of Rockhampton and found the present site of Longreach to be suitable for the terminus of the rail line.
In November 1887, the township of Longreach was gazetted. The name 'Longreach' had been used prior to the establishment of the town by an outstation of 'Mt Cornish', which was located in the vicinity of the present day 'Nogo'. This outstation, like the town, may have derived its' name from the 'long reach' of the Thomson River.
In December 1887, the first sale of Longreach town allotments was held at Barcaldine. The first sale was to the Queensland National Bank for 107 pounds. A block of land opposite was purchased by Mr J. M. Savage for 103 pounds, this site is presently occupied by the Video 2000 franchise.
Following the completion of the rail link in 1892, the growth of Longreach accelerated, soon boasting a post office, court house, police station and lockup, a state school, churches, businesses and residences.
Interesting note: all the streets in Longreach are named after birds. Streets named after water birds run east-west and those named after land birds run north-south.
Longreach has beautiful warm weather almost all year round. Average maximum temperatures are 36-40 degrees during summer and 23-26 degrees during winter. Minimum overnight temperatures are 22-23 degrees during the summer months and 7-8 degrees during winter.

BUCHAREST (Sep. 7)
A crowd of anti-Semitic demonstrators sought to mob Motzi Spakov, Jewish heavyweight champion, when judges announced a decision in his favor at the end of an exciting ten-round bout Saturday night.
A similar outburst at a football game at the Ciocan grounds Sunday morning between the Maccabi team and the anti-Jewish Students Football Club was avoided when the students won the match 2-to-0.
At the boxing contest troops and constabulary used tanks of identifying colored liquid designed to spray agitators. Throughout the fray, hundreds of spectators shouted, "Down with Jews," Since a description of the battle was broadcast, the taunts were heard all over the country.
As soon as the result was announced, the hostile crowd, whose shouts had not prevented the fighter, Spakov, from exhibiting his skill, rushed the ring. The tired boxer was rescued and escorted to his dressing-room by a few husky friends. It is understood that as a result of the disturbances, Spakov is determined never to fight again in Rumania. He had successfully defended his heavyweight crown for the eleventh successive time.

I recently wrote a post about how we can use listening as a way to quiet the mind, and how the arising of thoughts can become a "mindfulness bell," calling us back to mindful attentiveness of the sounds around us. (The post was specifically about persistent thoughts that take the form of music, but the same approach works for all thoughts.)
A commenter on that post directed me to a video featuring the Canadian composer, writer, music educator and environmentalist R. Murray Schafer. In the video, Schafer very cleverly leads us into a form of listening meditation, in which he guides us from being mindful of recorded sounds to the "real" sounds in our personal … Read more »
John Alex Murphy, The Province: I was blessed with many peaceful meditations, some moments of profound insight and a few fond memories of my Mother during Week 4 of my amazing eight-week mindfulness meditation journey.
This week's daily practice was comprised of the "Breath and Body" meditation, and "The Three-Minute Breathing Space" meditation. Although this was my second week of practice with these two meditations, I still enjoyed a new and exciting voyage of self-discovery every time I meditated.
My Week 4 practice also included an eight-minute meditation entitled Sounds and Thoughts that proved to be enlightening for me. Let me share with you …
To listen is to lean in softly
With a willingness to be changed
By what we hear
-Mark Nepo
What happens when there's a listening presence? When we're fully in that listening presence, when there's that pure quality of receptivity, we become presence itself. And whether you call that God or pure awareness or our true nature, the boundary of inner and outer dissolves and we become a luminous field of awakeness. When we're in that open presence we can really respond to the life that's here. We fall in love.
This state of listening is the precursor or the prerequisite to loving relatedness. The more you understand the state of listening– of being able … Read more »
Ask the friend for love
Ask him again
For I have found that every heart
Will get what it prays for most.
– Hafiz
When offered with presence and sincerity, the practice of prayer can reveal the source of what your heart most deeply longs for—the loving essence of who you are. Perhaps without naming it as prayer, in times of great need and distress you may already spontaneously experience the act of doing so. For instance, you might find yourself saying something like, "Oh please, oh please" as you call out for relief from pain, for someone to take care of you, for help for a loved one, for a way to avoid great … Read more »
For Day 45 of Wildmind's 100 Day Meditation Challenge I wanted to post something I wrote in response to one of our participants who found it useful to set a bell to ring every so often while she was meditating.
What I've found is that when I'm listening very intently to something, I can't also do much (if any) thinking. So listening to a gong can be very calming.
When we're listening we're also being very receptive and open, and opposed to all the "doing" we normally, well, do. That "doing," if were not being very mindful, tends to make us close off to our experience, so that we can become very willful. The ideal … Read more »
A common problem people have in a challenge like this is the "inner narrator" who keeps up a running commentary on how your meditation is going. This is particularly a problem when we're going to be reporting on our practice to others, as we do in Wildmind's Google+ Community.
One thing that I find very effective is saying "It can wait." This is what I've called "The Mantra for the 21st Century." This statement affirms that the commentary might be useful, but also affirms that the present moment is not the appropriate time for it.
Listening helps. It's not possible to listen to what's going on around you 100% and also keep … Read more »

Ten ways to show people you love them:
My dad grew up on a ranch in North Dakota. He has a saying from his childhood – you may have heard it elsewhere – that's: "You learn more by listening than by talking."
Sure, we often gain by thinking out loud, including discovering our truth by speaking it. But on the whole, listening brings lots more valuable information than talking does.
Nonetheless, many people are not the greatest listeners. (You've probably noticed this already: at work, at home, when you're trying to work something out with your partner . . .) What's it feel like when they don't listen to you? Or maybe listen, but don't inquire further? It's not good. Besides missing out … Read more »
Listening helps children feel important, appreciated, and respected. A conversation that could have just touched the surface, deepens dramatically when we really listen to our children.
Parents who listen to their children help them to know what that have to say matters.,
Active listening is a skill that goes beyond just hearing words. It takes energy and understanding what feelings are beneath the words — the emotions and context within which the words are framed.
Here are some tips for active listening:
1. Give your child your entire attention. Don't be thinking of what you will say when it is your turn to speak.
2. Maintain eye contact and make sure your body language shows … Read more »

It'll be Punk. I think it'll be quite awhile until somebody outside the Rock - Cena - Punk trio has the WWE Title. Probably won't happen until 2014
So it's pretty much a given that Cena is winning the WWE title at Wrestlemania. I think it'll be interesting to see who takes the title off of him though.
THINK - I think the person they'll have beat Cena for the title will be Ryback, unfortunately.
WANT - With Kane/Daniel Bryan probably breaking up soon I'd like to see a more serious Daniel Bryan (doesn't have to be completely serious, think WHC Daniel Bryan) take the title off of Cena. It'd be nice to see Bryan get a run with the title, and the feud itself could be really great going back to mentioning the first Nexus attack with Bryan spitting on Cena, kicking him in the head, and yelling "You are not better than me!" at him. Not only do I think the feud would be good, I think these guys could put on some great main event matches if given the chance.
So, what do you think will happen, and what do you WANT to happen?
It'll be Punk. I think it'll be quite awhile until somebody outside the Rock - Cena - Punk trio has the WWE Title. Probably won't happen until 2014

I don't want it to be punk again...he just had a year long reign and it'd be nice to see someone else take it from Cena
How to win the WWE titleBEST AVATAR IN THE WORLD!The winner of Summerfest!'s Signature Face-Off!Thanks to all who give rep
I think the person who'll take the title of Cena will ultimately either be a heel Orton, or Ryback. My prediction will probably change but at the moment that's how I see it anyway.
I'd say Ryback
How to win the WWE titleBEST AVATAR IN THE WORLD!The winner of Summerfest!'s Signature Face-Off!Thanks to all who give rep
If I had it my way.....SANDOW!
I'm going to hop on the Ryback wagon. Punk just had it for a year and while he made a great champion, it's the fact that he held it so long which makes me think he won't hold it again for a while.
I'd also buy Cesaro as a WWE champion if they push the hell out of him over the next four to six months.
A ton and a half of credit to Rad for this superb artwork
Days Oncall has left to use his MITB Contract: 300-ishOriginally Posted by The Miz
My choice...Dean Ambrose or Cody Rhodes at SummerSlam.
What will probably happen...Ryback at Hell in a Cell.
There are reports that Punk is leaving after Wrestlemania, so I expect Ryback to feud with Cena for a while.
Waaaay too early to tell. Cena will probably hold it for a while. There could be brand switches, MITB, a whole number of things.
SpoilerRusev looks like Torbe.
Think - Ryback.
Want - Muhammad Hassan. A mark can dream, right?
Face Cena loses to Ryback
Heel Cena (if he flips at WM) loses to Sheamus
Daniel Bryan
Antonio Cesaro - I know it's too early, but still love CC. In a perfect world, Cesaro and Ohno re-team as The Kings of Wrestling and bring glory back to the Big Pennies (Tag Titles).
Who really knows , but I do think Cena will hold it quite awhile , a year or close to it & as of right now my guess would probably be RyBack , but again at this point who really knows... .. .. ..
Antonio Cesaro is worthy of a Kurt Angle type push this year.
What 2000, was for Angle, 2013 should be for Cesaro.
I don't really have any interest in anymore Orton, Sheamus, Punk, or even Ryback pushes at this point.
Cesaro is my pick for next at bat.
And for the love of God please let him use the UFO, in the WWE!
Shout out to Bender for the Bad Ass Bad News Banner!
Want: Punk
Most likely: Sheamus, Orton, or Ryback
I'm really not sure. I can see Cena holding onto the title for a good 6 months, therefore you never know who will be hot at the time. I expect you can't look past Ryback, Ziggler, Orton, Punk, Big Show or Sheamus though. In that time though, all members of The Shield, Antonio Cesaro or Damien Sandow could be in with a shout of the title. Only time will tell.
Thanks too Fresh Prince
John Cena says he wants to break Bruno's record, so maybe everyone is wrong lol.
Who is the boss? Who made wrestling? Who is sports entertainment?
This whole Rock feud and avoidance of Cena being champion for almost 2 years is not going to lead to Cena losing the title within a couple of months or even at SummerSlam. If it does it is down to someone getting hot and striking or injury. It makes no sense to do this whole build of Cena for a short useless reign. Cena has already put it out there in the mainstream about trying to break Bruno's record. Not coincident.
Who is the boss? Who made wrestling? Who is sports entertainment?
I see Cena having a really long reign and then the title being taken off him by HHH, in what would be Triple H's last go at the WWE title and last "thank you" reign. HHH would not hold it for very long and drop it to Brock Lesnar who goes up 2-1 on Hunter.
That makes a strong lineage of the title for WWE to build on - CM Punk record reign - Rock - Cena long reign - HHH - Brock - Cena
Banner Credit: Spike
I also think there is an outside chance Cena holds it until WM 30 where he loses it to the Undertaker. Afterwards a tournament is held and someone new takes the title and Cena and Punk chase that person for awhile.
Thanks JV for the artwork!!
If they are intent on keeping Cena face, then a year long title reign might be the worst thing they could do.

An Egyptian Developer Shifts to the ContinentBy and
Egyptian billionaire Samih Sawiris is at ease developing a resort town in the Swiss Alps or a lakeside oasis in Egypt below sea level. In fact, he's doing both. "Sand and snow are the same," he says, explaining the expansion in Europe of his company, Orascom Development Holding. "These are the attractions that bring people to buy a house and bring people to stay at a hotel, and the hotel is the job creator that makes people want to come and live in the town," he says. "Since we provide everything, we make money."
Even as the global real estate crisis has forced many developers to cancel or curtail projects, Orascom is expanding far beyond the Mideast. Sawiris is betting on a model that served him well in the past: building resorts from scratch and expanding them into small towns. Besides profiting from constructing and selling the apartments and owning hotels, Orascom gets continuing revenue by providing everything from power grid maintenance to operating golf courses. It even handles garbage collection.
His first operation, El Gouna on Egypt's Red Sea, started as nothing more than a few houses on the beach and a hotel. It's now a town of about 35,000 permanent residents, 16 hotels, international schools teaching 1,500 students, a winery, and a brewery. It even has a soccer club competing in Egypt's premier league, says Sawiris, a graduate of the Technical University of Berlin, at his office in Cairo overlooking the Nile.
Sawiris moved to replicate the El Gouna model in Jordan and Oman, then decided to go global. In 2009, a year after moving Orascom's headquarters to Switzerland, he started building the Andrematt resort complex in the Alps. This year he announced projects in Montenegro, Britain, and Romania, as well as a plan to raise capital to fund the expansions.
"The fact that we became an international company listed in Switzerland is really to facilitate our expansion program outside Egypt," he says. "There is no doubt that you as a Swiss company are more welcome in Montenegro" than an Egyptian developer would be.
Samih is the second of three brothers who make up Egypt's richest dynasty. Naguib, the eldest, heads Orascom Telecom Holding, the biggest mobile phone operator in the Middle East as measured by users. Nassef, the youngest, is chairman of Orascom Construction Industries, the region's largest publicly traded builder.
For Samih, developing on the Continent means moving slower than normal, says Patrick Gaffney, a real estate analyst at HSBC Securities Egypt. "The regulations are much stricter," he says. "Even just simple things as when can you construct and when you can't. Those things will be a challenge for them, which I think they will be able to overcome, but it definitely raises a risk."
It's an obstacle that Sawiris plays down, saying that having numerous projects in the pipeline will help offset a slowdown at any single development. Orascom's net income rose 20 percent in 2009, to 138.6 million Swiss francs, or $130.2 million, and Sawiris says he expects similar results this year. He's confident Orascom will meet his target of 100 million francs in sales at Andrematt this year, helped by the fact that Switzerland has avoided the brunt of the global real estate slump.
"We have been protected," says Sabine Schofield, managing director of commercial property consultants Schofield & Partners in Geneva, referring to the Swiss property market. "We've had a steady growth rate in consumer spending. There are positive indicators despite persistent uncertainty in surrounding countries."
The Andrematt project will offer up to 30 private villas, 490 apartments, and 6 hotels, as well as a golf course and 35,000 square meters of commercial space. The first apartment will be ready for occupancy in 2014.
Rather than waiting for pre-sales of apartments to provide the equity for all of the hotels Sawiris wants to build, he will accelerate development by raising up to 200 million Swiss francs in additional capital at Orascom Development before the end of 2010; of that, 85 million francs will come from his own money.
Sawiris is betting that will better position Orascom to benefit as Europe's economy strengthens. Still, he says profit isn't his only motive. "Come on, it gives you a kick to be building a town, doesn't it?" he says. "And you know that you're the only one who knows how to do it."
The bottom line: Billionaire Samih Sawiris is expanding resort development to Europe, and keeping his Middle East business model intact.

Recent tribal clashes in western Libya left 105 people dead and some 500 injured, the government has said.
Government spokesman Nasser al-Manaa said there had been no fighting in the mountainous area since Monday, following the deployment of the army.
The area includes the towns of Zintan, Mizdah and Shegayga, some 150km (90 miles) south of the capital Tripoli.
The week-long clashes were seen as a test for Libya's new government, which has struggled to assert its authority.
The fighting was mainly between fighters from Zintan, backed by another tribe known as the Guntrara from Mizdah, and armed members of the Mashashya tribe based in Shegayga, the BBC's Rana Jawad in Tripoli says.
Tensions date from the Gaddafi-era, when one tribe was given land expropriated from another, our correspondent says. Read more…

GLORIOUS week on Carnival Glory: Carnival Glory Cruise Review by hehrball
Overall Member Rating
GLORIOUS week on Carnival Glory
Destination: Western Caribbean
Embarkation: Miami
We arrived in Miami about 6pm Saturday. I made reservations at La Quinta Inn East in Miami. They offered free pickup at the airport, free breakfast, and free shuttle to the pier in the morning. Very reasonably priced for all thats included. Not a super fancy place but more than adequate for our needs! The only place to go within walking distance was Bennigans across the parking lot. Loved it there as well they had 99 cent draft beer!!! What a way to start vacation!
The next morning we woke up and we had the noon shuttle scheduled. We also purchased a shuttle back from the pier to the airport from the same company for $10 pp. Great deal I thought and had it all lined up if we spent all our money on the ship! LOL. In hindsight we wished we wouldve done in excursion with Carnival in Miami we had way to much time between debarkation and the flight home. The Shuttle service dropped us off at the pier and was a little taken back at the line at customs it was HUGE!
Started to get anxious about the huge line at customs we got there around 1230ish. I had booked a group cruise through Carnival great deals. I was a bit worried about customs though my father inlaw didnt have a passport. I have read numerous horror stories about not getting onboard with the right documents. The line moved very fast though I think we were inside in probably 30 mins. Very impressed kudos to the staff! Ive seen plenty of people complaining about embarkation and lines. Not the case at all it was a breeze. We had filled out our funpass online. All we had to do was go to a kiosk and scan our passport and we were done in under 2 minutes! Up the escalaters we went. All 10 of us no problems!
We got on ship around 1:15. We were told our rooms would be ready by 1:20 so we all checked out our rooms, they were all ready! My wife and I had booked an interior room. Prior to sailing we got an upsell call and took the offer for $70 bucks to upgrade to Oceanview. I wouldve passed because we were more then happy with interior on last cruise. We decided to take it because for some reason our group was on 2nd floor and we were on 1st and with us moving our room we were across the hall from our group. We were in room 2449. We got to the room and was a bit dissapointed that it had scaffolding in front of the window! They didnt tell me it was obstructed! Oh well still could see out for the most part and we had a bit bigger room and a couch so it was nice anyway.
Everyone got settled in and dropped off our carry on bags and headed to the lido. I learned from our cruise last year to not eat to much as we skipped our dinner in the MDR last year. I am going to address all the food critics on here. None of us on the trip had anything negative to say about the food on the cruise! If you want to complain about everything stay home! I think everyone should be required to work some form of customer service in their lives and they would be more grateful.
We all took in the ship its a BEAUTIFUL ship! Loved all the colors on the ship. Plenty to do and see found all the most do things on the ship. We made our way to the "secret" balconies on the ship for sailaway. Thanks CruiseCritic. Upfront we encountered a pod of dolphins coming up the harbor toward the ship and then go along the side what way to start vacay!! Beautiful sunset that night as well.
We made it down to the MDR that night and found out we were all sitting at a big table for 10 in the Platinum Dining room 1 floor up from our rooms PERFECT! Our wait staff was AWESOME!! Very attentive and used our names during the week. I have read about the chilled fruit soups and was bumming that i was afraid to try them on first cruise so vowed to try them this time. If you are like me and though cold soup? Well I am hear to tell you I am a MAJOR fan of them had them every night they were available so delicious!! I had Flat Iron Steak that night and of course followed with the melting cake. We all went to bed full to the brim as usual.

Now we booked a cruise last year on Victory because we didnt think we would like Sea Days. Still not a fan but did find lots to do and keep busy. We woke up and went about our day. My wife and I headed to the dining room for breakfast (aft dining room) I am a huge fan of the Eggs Benedict! Also a great way to meet people. I had breakfast in there everyday but one due to early excursion. If you havent ever done it you need to experience it. We all made our way lounging around and found the Serenity Deck AWESOME addition to Carnival. Find it early though it fills up fast. I decided to make some drinks with my Vodka I had ordered from Bon Voyage precruise (great idea and will do again). A friend and I decided to go play bags as to have a feel close to home. We played Bags for hours that day and met alot of good people to play with us as well. This is where we met our first and only bartender for the cruise. Samson was awesome he kept them coming calling us by name the whole week made our trip. That night was Formal night in the MDR. The majority or the people in our group got lobster. I am not fond of it so I ordered the Prime Rib DELICIOUS! I had the Apple Tart for dessert. That night they had Living in America in the showroom. My wife and I saw that production last year on Victory so we decided to head to the punchliner. Great move super funny comedians they had a total of 4 that week. They both do a family show and an x rated show each night they preformed 2 nights then they are sent home and 2 more come on for the end of the week Great addition by Carnival!
Tuesday Cozumel
What an awesome port beautiful weather and lots to do. We booked the Isla Pasion by Twister. Best decision of the cruise! More about it in the port section. My wife and i bought a few souvenirs here and later found out we shouldve bought more as they were way cheaper then other ports. We really didnt want to leave Cozumel! We got back on board after stopping to admire the young ladys that decided they were to warm to wear their bikini tops and were dancing on the tables at Fat Tuesdays. We got ready and headed to the MDR that night I had the marinated Pork Loin followed by the Tiramisu never had that before loved it!! We all headed to the punchliner again that night full of food and drinks from our excurision.
Wednesday Belize
I will start this with a warning we made a mistake i think by not prebooking an excursion. We had plan to get off and walk around and enjoy Belize. We had to tender here which was a first for us. It went smooth and easy. We landed at the pier and lets just say the it was more then unpleasant. We were constantly hounded by people trying to do trips or sell us things. All we wanted to do was walk around and have a local beer. We headed out of the security gate and had a local man follow us for 3 blocks pitching his trip all the while I was telling him NO. Finally I stopped him from talking and said I had enough to leave us alone! We found a little shack that had beer and pop. We stopped in and had a beer and my wife a pop. In the time we had 1 beer we had a lady try and braid my wifes hair, another guy try and sell us a trip, and last but not least jungle man wanted to charge us for a pic with him! We had enough we headed back to the tenders and got on the first one back! That being said the other people in our group enjoyed their tours and like Belize. I will never do that again. I did make use of the time and head up to the bean bad tournament that day and preceded to show all the people on the boat that the Midwesterns own the boards on bags and won my first ever SHIP ON A STICK!! That night we headed to the MDR and I had some kind of turkey pasta followed by chocolate cake with raspberries. They moved Justin Illusion to this night and I will say this is by FAR the best live act Ive ever seen so glad we didnt miss it.
Thursday Roatan
Biggest dissapointment of the cruise. Had really really high hopes for this port due to others recommendations. Unfortunatly we couldnt dock there due to the weather. There was a NCL ship in port but think they had been there since last night as the seas were really rough. Us and another ship went back to sea that day. I myself didnt get seasick at all my wife did however as did many other people on the ship as the MDR was very empty that night. We did make lemonade out of lemons however and had a great day lounging around and getting our drinks from Samson. Great day to sit in the Serenity Deck and lounge on the awesome chairs watching the world go by. We enjoyed watching the few guys that were in the pool watching the water splash out of the pool all the way into the hot tubs! This night in the MDR my wife was really bummed as we had Filet Mignon and she was sick and didnt come to dinner. Melting cake again for dessert. They moved Justin Illusion to this night and I will say this is by FAR the best live act Ive ever seen so glad we didnt miss it.
Friday Grand Cayman
I was a bit nervous about this port as they had said the day before it was closed due to the seas. They were still rough but not as bad that day so we were able to tender in. We had booked the best of Caymans tour. Good tour more in port review. Spent the day in Cayman and got back onboard. I had the Flat Iron steak again followed by the Baked Alaska. We watched Thein Fu that night in showlounge pretty funny guy and great juggler.
Sat Day at Sea
Once again not a fan of the sea days as I am not a sun bather or anything. I did try the burrito bar that everyone raved about not a big fan or the burrito but the chips and salsa was awesome! That night was the fun farewell party Samson made this 45 min party the best ever! Thanks SAMSON!! We then made our way to formal night in the MDR. Had the prime rib again followed by another kind of cake but dont remember the name. Very good as always.
Sunday Miami Debarkation Day
For some reason we were woken up by a room steward (not ours) telling us they want to clean our room. Mind you we set our alarm for 830 and it was 745 am. Never had the feeling of being pushed until that day. We werent supposed to be off the ship until 10am. We made our way up to the lido for breakfast and waited as it seemed forever for debarkation we were number 25. We got down stairs to get luggage and stood inline forever at customs. Dont want to complain much but some how we got sent into the line with all the foreigners and they had to go through way more screening then the Americans. That being said I think they need to seperate lines as I think it would cut the time in half. We got outside and waited for our shuttle service and got on about 1130 and they took us to Miami International. Long long wait till the 5pm flight.
I am sure I am forgetting something on here if I think of more I will add it. If you have any questions just ask I will get back with you and have tons of pictures if I can figure out how to get them on here. All in all we had a AWESOME trip and bought a FCC on board for another one the only problem is we dont know where and when to go! THank you Carnival for another GREAT experience! Hope it wasnt too long and boring! Also one last thing if any of you want to be negative all week and nitpick STAY HOME and dont ruin our cruise! Thanks. Less

Plan Overview |
Countywide Bike Plan Map |
Maps by Community
Salt Lake County continues to make strides in improving bicycle safety and designing a connected bicycle network that will provide more transportation options for residents and contribute to better air quality.
Salt Lake County's Active Transportation Implementation Plan builds upon previous planning efforts conducted by the county, individual cities, and regional partners such as Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) and Utah Transit Authority (UTA).
The purpose of this plan is to identify and prioritize specific routes and spot improvements throughout the valley that contribute to safe connections between cities, townships, neighborhoods, schools, commercial centers, transit, parks, and regional off-street paths, such as the Jordan River Parkway.
Public input was critical to this process. Over 1,000 people participated in our
online survey from March - April and an additional 100 + participated in adding feedback via an online interactive mapping tool.
In May/June, the county held a series of public meetings across the valley in which residents were encouraged to provide feedback on considerations toward building a regional bicycle network that is safe, convenient, and fun.
In October and November, public feedback was gathered on draft route recommendations via an
interactive map where participants could comment on what they liked and disliked as well as indicate where they had concerns.
We thank the roughly 1,500 Salt Lake County residents who provided feedback throughout this seven month public engagement process.

Year after IPO, Facebook aims to be ad colossus
NEW YORK — The IPO arrived, and it flopped. Facebook's stock finished its first day of trading just 23 cents higher than its $38 IPO price. It hasn't been that high since.
Amid the hype and excitement surrounding Facebook's stock market debut a year ago, there were doubts. Investors wondered whether the social network could increase advertising revenue without alienating users, especially those using smartphones.
The worries intensified days before the IPO when General Motors said it would stop paying for advertisements on the site. The symbolic exit cast a shroud over Facebook that still exists. Facebook's market value is $63 billion, some two-thirds of what it was the morning it first began trading. At about $27 per share, the company's stock is down roughly 30 percent from its IPO price. Meanwhile, the Standard & Poor's 500 index is up 27 percent over the same period.
The world's biggest online social network has kept growing to 1.1 billion users. Some 665 million people check in every day to share photos, comment on news articles and play games. Millions of people around the world who don't own a computer use Facebook, in Malawi, Malaysia and Martinique.
And much has changed at Facebook in a year. The company's executives and engineers have quietly addressed the very doubts that dogged the company for so long. Facebook began showing mobile advertisements for the first time last spring. It launched a search feature in January and unveiled a branded Facebook smartphone in April. The company also introduced ways for advertisers to gauge the effectiveness of their ads.
Even GM has returned as a paying advertiser.
Facebook is looking to its next challenge: convincing big brand-name consumer companies that advertisements on a social network are as important as television spots.
"We aspire to have ads, to show ads that improve the content experience over time," Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg said.
To achieve those aims, the company has rolled out tools to help advertisers target their messages more precisely than they can in print or on television. Companies can single out 18- to 24-year-old male Facebook users who are likely to buy a car in the next six months. They can target 30-year-old women who are researching Caribbean getaways.
Analytic tools like these weren't available a year ago. But last fall, Facebook hired several companies that collect and analyze data related to people's online and offline behavior. Facebook's advertisers can now assess whether a Crest ad you saw on Facebook likely led you to buy of a tube of toothpaste in the drugstore. Sean Bruich, Facebook's head of measurement platforms and standards, believes the tools are paying off.
"What we can see conclusively a year after the IPO is that ads on Facebook really do help drive people into the store and help them make purchasing decisions, help influence their purchasing decisions," he says.
People "are getting served ads based on things they didn't put on Facebook and maybe wouldn't be comfortable putting on Facebook," says Rainey Reitman, activism director at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, a nonprofit civil-liberties firm. Facebook says mechanisms are in place to protect privacy.
"We've never had anything like Facebook," Reitman says. "We've never had an entity that was able to collect so much information on so much of the world's population, ever."
"Anywhere that more than a billion people spend time with their friends each month is extremely valuable to us," says Brad Ruffkess, connection strategist at Coca-Cola.

Dispite having such a huge height and weight advantage, Elizabeth Thorn isn't able to score too many points on the little spit fire, Luna. Today you see heart from a little firecracker. The winner brutalizes the loser. Lots of facesit pins and humiliating typer writer bullying. The loser is fucked all over the mat with a cock that is about the size of half her leg.

Staging is definitely an attention-grabbing strategy in my community and hometown of Orlando, Florida - too many homes for sale. A home that's staged, and marketed as such, screams its uniqueness from the rest...and gets buyers through the door! A staged home is a much wanted home and a sellable home!!

Developers constantly ask about placing the latest code\feature\process\third party applications onto Production Database Servers.
I'm building an FAQ to supply Developers – as this could save me having very similar conversations .
Some other reasons for retaining a process is :
a) Maintain database standards such as ISO-11179 Naming Conventions and SQL DDL and
b) Server standards such as Should libraries be installed on database servers ?
c) Maximsing SQL Server system redundancy and high availability
Create a helpdesk request , outlining requirements. A member of the DBA Team will supply you with documentation. The documentation will request information regarding: Management requirements,Capacity Planning , Database Engine,Security, SSIS,SSAS,SSRS and Master Data Services.
A meeting will be organized to complete the requirements documentation
Create a change request . Add a member of the DBA team as an approver, who'll review the code and advise on impact
Yes, but certain conditions must be met. As the DBA team we'd like :
Yes. There are already implementations of these features on Production Servers. Some of the key questions to discuss are : a) is this a third party vendor requirement – if so , is there internal support if troubleshooting is required.
b) If you're planning on implementing SSIS for migrating data , outline the workflow and impact on other resources
Request a meeting with a DBA team member to discuss options
Yes. Keep in mind , generally database servers only host SQL servers. There would have to be a strong reason to process jobs on the database server. Justification is required.
SQL server – Pre size a database
SQL Server – DBA productivity and less is more

McLaren have been outpaced by rivals Williams in the last two races and are aiming to boost their speed with the improvements to the MP4-17D car and its Mercedes engine.
Some parts will be ready for this weekend's German Grand Prix, with others waiting until the Hungarian event on 24 August.
McLaren managing director Martin Whitmarsh said: "We're reasonably competitive at the moment, but it's very close [between us and Williams].
"There is no doubt Williams are making good progress and I'm sure we'd rather have a larger [performance] margin."
Whitmarsh would not specify what the improvements were, but said they would only be obvious to a trained eye.
He added that McLaren were no closer to deciding when their long-delayed all-new car, the MP4-18, would make its race debut.
But Whitmarsh said: "I don't think Williams have made a step ahead [of McLaren]. It's sufficiently close that in some races we will do a better job than them and in others it will be other way around."
And he pointed out that Raikkonen was in the lead ahead of race-winner Rubens Barrichello and runner-up Juan Pablo Montoya of Williams at the British Grand Prix only to be passed by both men.
"You can always say how you should have won. We came out in front after the last stop, so you can say we should have won the last one."
Raikkonen is in second place in the championship, seven points behind leader Michael Schumacher and seven ahead of Montoya.
The Finn has not won a race since the Malaysian GP in March, although he was leading the European GP in June when his engine failed.

What a massive collection you must have – and no doubt superbly catalogued so everything's at your fingertips. Thanks for sharing with all of us.
The Ardmore Drive-In was the subject of an article published in the February 8, 1960, issue of Boxoffice Magazine. This was one of many drive-ins designed by Jack K. Vogel, an architectural engineer. The Ardmore included a pair of 60-seat, heated and air conditioned auditoriums flanking the concession area. The Ardmore was built for Ernest and George Stern, of the Associated Theatres circuit.
Renewing link.
Uploaded a 1967 aerial view
Approx. address for this drive-in was 1500 Yost Boulevard, Braddock Hills. It is now the Braddock Hills Shopping Center @ Storefront.
I Now know the effects of gettiing Old! Many people I talk to Don't even Remember the Ardmore! When we were kids in the late 1960s thru the 1970's we spent more time at the drive-ins than in "real" theatres! Greater Pittsburgh up the road was bigger, but the Ardmore was my favorite! Anyone remember the playgound equipment there (I guess to tucker out the kiddies before showtime!) Nice feature for parents with 5 kids jammed on to the old Plymouth wagon!
The Ardmore Drive-In was one the Pittsburgh area drive-ins that my family frequented in 1960s (the others being the Silver Lake, Harmar and Greater Pittsburgh). The thing about it that stands out in my memory is the small auditoriums flanking the concession area that were mentioned in an earlier post.
September 4th, 1959 grand opening ad in photo section.
I worked there for several years as did many of my family members. It was sad to see it close. Little did we know that it was a once in a life experience; wish I had been able to share it with my children and grand children.
Final night of operation was either September 27 or 28, 1976. The September 29 edition of The Pittsburgh Press reported construction of a Gold Circle department store on the Ardmore Drive-In site to begin the following month. The confusion of the actual closing date comes from the same article; it indicates that it "closed Monday" (27th), but there is a listing for the Ardmore in the following day's paper (28th).

Most recent posting below. See other articles in the column to the right.
You are getting married and you and your intended are choosing the members of the wedding party. He can't decide which of his good friends he should ask to be the best man. No matter whom he chooses, someone's feelings will be hurt. So, he decides to ask his sister. Or perhaps the bride has a friend since childhood that she wants to be in her line, but he happens to be a guy, not a girl. Can she have a male bridesmaid?
Today, it is fine to include a person of the opposite sex among your attendants. Older couples with adult children have been doing this for years. The criteria for choosing attendants remains the same as it has always been – choose people that are relatives or that are close to you and will continue to be a part of your life in the future. If that person is of the opposite sex, that is fine in most instances, unless your wedding will be held in a conservative church or synagogue. Then, you may need to obtain the approval of the pastor/priest/rabbi before asking the person to be in your line.
When a person of the opposite sex is chosen to fill the position of maid of honor or best man, he or she should be called "the bride's honor attendant" or "the groom's honor attendant." When a person of the opposite sex is chosen to fill the role of groomsman or bridesmaid, then all of the attendants are called "the bride's attendants (rather than bridesmaids) and "the groom's attendants" (rather than groomsmen).
When a woman stands on the groom's side, she might wear a dress in the same color as the male attendant's tuxedos or suits and of the same formality as the bridesmaids' dresses. She should wear a corsage rather than a boutonnière. A man who stands on the bride's side should dress the same as the other men in the wedding party. He should wear a boutonnière, not carry a bouquet. If he fills the position of the maid of honor, then the bridesmaid standing next to him should hold the bride's bouquet during the ceremony and she should help the bride with her train if necessary.
A female groom's attendant will dress with the ladies, but she will appear in the photos along with the groom's male attendants. Similarly, a male bride's attendant will dress with the men, but he will appear in the photos along with the bride's female attendants. Be sure that your photographer is aware of the situation so that the person is included in the correct photos.
It is appropriate to choose a young girl to fill the position of ring bearer if you have no young boys that you would like to include. A female ring bearer carries the title of ring bearer but dresses much like the flower girls. During the ceremony she will stand on the groom's side.
Whether your attendants are of the same sex or of the opposite sex, choose those who are an important part of your life and that you want to be with you on your special day, thus making your wedding very personal.
