And if you’re not interested, why not save you both the time; grab your balls (or tits) and say so!<br /><br />This applies to men and women.<br /><br />DO NOT Talk about your ex. – I know. You’ve heard this one a thousand times but how many times do you find yourself caught up in a moment. Just save them for another time. You do not want to spend half of your new relationship talking about an old one. If you haven’t dropped off some of your baggage prior to this date, you don’t have enough arms left to pickup anymore.<br /><br />DO NOT Tell your entire life story. – This is a first date. This person is not your psychologist and will not be turned on by hearing every little thing about you during a meal. Also, without mystery, what reason does this person have to schedule a second date, duh!<br /><br />DO NOT Ask too many f-ing questions. – You are not interviewing someone for a job, you’re out to have a good and flirtatious time. Just like you do not want to divulge every little thing about you in one encounter, you definitely do not want to know every little thing about your date in one setting.<br /><br />DO NOT Establish routines early. – When you ask someone out, avoid doing the same things at the same time and ordering the same meals every time you two are together. It’s cute to have a “thing”, but to do that “thing” as if there is no other thing is just plain stupid.<br /><br />DO NOT Check out other people. – Unless you are horrible t verbal communication and are attempting to let your date know that you are NOT interested, there is no reason to do this. Check out people on your own time. Dedicate this time to your date. Examine him or her closely. If this is someone that you have no desire to admire this early on, why haven’t you left yet?<br /><br />DO NOT Send mixed signals about the next date. – If you’re interested (or not), just say so. Don’t make determining whether or not to meet again a mystery. This is one issue that you should be very clear about.<br /><br />DO NOT Jump start the conversation by starting with religion and politics. – Even jumping into social issues is a big no-no. Discuss something in between these and the weather, so that you’re not bored but you’re not livid either. <br /><br />DO NOT Eat your date’s dessert. – This is an exchange often played up in films and this works every time because it takes place in a movie, not in real life, a movie. <br /><br />DO NOT Say, “I’ll call you.” – This phrase is completely avoidable, never use it. If you’re not interested in your date, you should not have stayed long enough to be tempted to go there and these words should just never be uttered together when on a date. If you’re not interested, the words that should come out of your mouth should be, “I’m not interested.” Which leads me to the most important rule of dating…<br /><br />DO Say what you honestly feel. – Both sexes are tired of being bs’ed. If you’re not interested, say so, and vice versa.Savina EUCLIDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14045566968406353058noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8541552795161687041.post-22506452854651172772009-04-28T20:00:00.000-07:002009-04-28T20:17:30.953-07:00Killing CraigslistI can not believe that the best solution that the man could think of included persuading the head of Craigslist to close down the erotic section of the site. That makes about as much as sense as saying, "someone was killed in a Burger King parking lot, so we should close down all Burger King Parking lots." Not only is this is far from problem solving, it presents yet another problem... of the "Quick Fix America Syndrome". If you want to correct and long-term problem, the solution deserves time to really get down and dirty to clear up any residual messes so that the long-term problem does not return with a Godzilla-sized vengeance.Savina EUCLIDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14045566968406353058noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8541552795161687041.post-46967024159730415392009-04-19T13:46:00.000-07:002009-04-19T13:51:50.891-07:00Take A Little Time To Clean Your Recyclables<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Llh8ZuDQcVY/SeuO0ab8yII/AAAAAAAAADw/dUbzd_ydIu8/s1600-h/Man%27s+Footprint+on+the+Planet+Today+by+John+Ditchburn.bmp"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 156px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Llh8ZuDQcVY/SeuO0ab8yII/AAAAAAAAADw/dUbzd_ydIu8/s200/Man%27s+Footprint+on+the+Planet+Today+by+John+Ditchburn.bmp" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5326508015396636802" /></a><br />Seriously<br /><br />In what America considers to be, and uses as her own personal dumpsters, live people who spend their days cleaning out or recyclables.<br /><br />We are definitely not the only ones who ship our recycling off to other countries, but from what I have recently experienced we are the only ones that dispose of our recyclables without cleaning them.<br /><br />I spent a couple of years living in France and a couple in Germany and in both places, three things always took place with respect to recyclables: (1) they were placed into individual bins (i.e.: white glass, aluminum, paper, packaging, etc.); (2) the recyclables were not placed inside of bags that were of a different makeup (i.e.: putting plastic bottles inside of a paper bag); and (3) recyclables with perishable items were always cleaned prior to disposal. I asked over and over again, “Why is this necessary? We never do this in the U.S.,” this was always the response that I received.<br /><br />Modern technology is still not able to clean and sort our recyclables one hundred percent. This is why people are required in order to take out recyclables out of packaging that may not be recycled the same way (if at all) and must empty out massive amounts of remains by hand prior to recycling the products. As Americans, we believe there is the magical place where garbage goes, never to return again. If you do not recycle, you need to start today. If you do recycle, take a little time to rinse out or completely use up whatever is inside of your recyclable materials. <br /><br />Seriously.Savina EUCLIDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14045566968406353058noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8541552795161687041.post-12159872684210213562009-04-18T19:51:00.000-07:002009-04-18T19:55:45.997-07:00...because balance is the key.<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Llh8ZuDQcVY/SeqSPZS4ndI/AAAAAAAAADY/03gwqNRZrbA/s1600-h/You+Don%27t+Want+Me.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Llh8ZuDQcVY/SeqSPZS4ndI/AAAAAAAAADY/03gwqNRZrbA/s200/You+Don%27t+Want+Me.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5326230302504820178" /></a><br />Let's balance the state of the economy, the environment and everything else…<br /><br />Speak out for the environment. Even though we are told that actions speak louder than words, we continue to ignore the intense cries shooting out of the pores of mother earth, in order to indulge in our short-term conveniences. <br /><br />Reuse. Reduce. Recycle. Just like your body holds the story of your life, mother earth holds the history of our actions and each person should defend, protect and nurture his/her temple as often as possible.<br /><br />With regards to global warming, stop talking and heed the impassioned warnings flowing continuously out of the mouth of Al Gore, which all bog down to one thing…. Stop Talking and Do Something!<br /><br />We are running out of time and when we are all drowning, burning, starving or any other number of slow torturous deaths that will be our rewards as a result of our actions, we will have no reason to complain and no one to blame but ourselves.<br /><br />This piece of artwork is one of a series from my collection of the future of our environment. In our throw away society, I see the world filled with trees and other shrubbery made from garbage because we will not have any where else to put it. And “You don’t me” is one of many slogans that I painted onto my creation made out of other people’s garbage.<br /><br />If you are rich enough to follow through with my next idea, than just do it: (1) create and organization and have the appropriate permits and what not so this is executed on excellent terms; (2) collect donations from your friends, I don’ care how, but just get it done (via parties and what not). (3) Then during a press conference, offer it to the U.S, economy as a gi-normous (combination of enormous and gigantic) donation to be used only to pay off the debt. Not money to bail out businesses that are stuck in the past. Not to continue raising the salaries of the CEOs and those two steps behind them. Not for anything else that sounds stupid. Only use these funds as a donation towards an immediate improvement in a shitty situation. And if you and your friends are still feeling generous, then donate to your hometown, city, and state. You should know what’s needed where you live.<br /><br />Speaking of money in your hometowns, one great way to help out is to get involved in local grocers and make an abundance of healthy foods available to people in low income neighborhoods. Continue to talk about our obesity epidemic is the reason that it hasn’t changed.<br /><br />Children, hell, people need to exercise daily. They need to have healthy eating lifestyles and they need to eat healthy foods. And every time that the economy goes in the crapper or more people find themselves on the lower end of the economic stick, they eat what fills them up. And in poor neighborhoods, frozen meals and fast foods are always affordable.<br /><br />Say no to the Food Modernization and Safety Act of 2009. It not only targets organic farmers, but also makes it illegal to grow produce in your own backyard for the purpose of consumption.<br /><br />Let's balance the state of the economy, the environment and everything else…Savina EUCLIDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14045566968406353058noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8541552795161687041.post-86200514794928958242009-04-15T05:51:00.000-07:002009-04-15T05:58:37.080-07:00Short Summary of Last Night's American Idol PerformancesLet me start by saying, either way this group will be going on tour and the singles that they are currently releasing already give most of them a better chance of having a music career since this exposure is hard not to see (even if you don't care).<br /><br />Overall, last night's performances were just a non-eventful as most Hollywood films.

Would you get rid of the pet?<br /><br />No. First of all, the pet should be introduced to the potential spouse long before s/he becomes a spouse. If the pet is new, then the couple should go pet shopping together. This question addresses an old family friend. If I hid my beloved pet from my beloved spouse, then what else could I be hiding? And if the pet is not found of the spouse that is a sign of potential marital issues (aside from the lying) that should be investigated sooner or later. How do I know this? I know this because pets adopt their owner’s stronger characteristics as their main characteristics. As long as the pet owner has been up front and honest with his/her new spouse, the threesome should have no issues living happily ever after.Savina EUCLIDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14045566968406353058noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8541552795161687041.post-29907187172725993592009-04-04T16:20:00.000-07:002009-04-04T16:22:21.152-07:00Potential LawsUnfortunately our tax dollars are attempting to work against the few ways that people are able to survive during these tough economic times. <br /><br />There are many more bills that you should search for on your own, but HR-875 and S-425 are the two that I would like to focus on… for now. <br /><br />In short, they seek to put organic farmers out of business and even prevent people from growing their own food in their own backyards for their own personal consumption. This is referred to as “The Food Safety Modernization Act of 2009.” Although, it has nothing to do with safety and everything to do with big business making more money, there are quite a few big wigs, who are really pushing for this bill. We need to push them with our own words. <br /><br />If you have never taken the time to write to your representatives, congressmen, etc. now would be a wonderful time to do so, otherwise, this law will create a lot more lawbreakers.Savina EUCLIDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14045566968406353058noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8541552795161687041.post-75228308587914412652009-04-04T10:21:00.000-07:002009-04-04T10:32:45.271-07:00Oversized Fast Food Epedemic<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Llh8ZuDQcVY/SdeZrmMxELI/AAAAAAAAAB4/xSMDnU_T7r4/s1600-h/AMERICA%27S_NEXTTOP_MODEL.BMP"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 162px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Llh8ZuDQcVY/SdeZrmMxELI/AAAAAAAAAB4/xSMDnU_T7r4/s400/AMERICA%27S_NEXTTOP_MODEL.BMP" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5320890459029049522" /></a><br />Obesity is an epidemic that is killing America. Although there are a plethora of causes that feed this disease, fast food remains at the core. According to David Zinczenko, “without more [understandable] warnings for consumers, we’ll see more sick, obese children” and adults alike plaguing our nation. He feels that obesity is destroying American consumers from the inside out. Even though what’s being consumed is more bad than good, it’s being considered nourishment because it’s cheap and fulfilling.<br /><br />Obesity is an epidemic that is attacking American citizens at a younger and younger age. By the age of five, children have had so much fast food that their hearts are already exhibiting signs of disease. By the age of twenty, these same people are at risk for a heart attack. Just this year alone, I’ve personally heard of three people in their twenties that all appeared to be healthy and just had heart attacks and died. My friend, Joe, who had been active all of his life, had a heart attack and died while he was playing his weekly game of water polo. <br /><br />Zinczenko discusses how cigarette packs and alcohol bottles carry applicable warnings for their side affects and that fast food should carry them as well. I don’t agree with this point. I hate the idea of putting warning labels on all that is bad (or good). If someone wants to know the specifics for dietary reasons, I think it should be available. Excess information is numbing to people. Everyone should be offered a very general understanding of nutrition at a young age. For instance, children should have a valid nutritional chart memorized. Gradually, each person should learn what he needs nutritionally in order to maintain, gain or lose weight in a healthy manner as it pertains to his body weight and choice of eating lifestyles.<br /><br />It’s unfortunate that the unhealthy fast food is more readily available to the public than the healthy food. I’ve been a vegetarian for most of my life and if I don’t completely plan out everything I’m going to eat I starve. Eating is something that is fairly easy to monitor. It took me a few trials but I discovered that I like to eat four to five small meals a day and some snacks. There isn’t any place where I can run in and pick up ready-made vegetarian food at an inexpensive price. I’m not saying that vegetarianism is the way to a healthy America, but a healthy eating lifestyle needs to be enforced throughout the country otherwise obesity will emerge victorious.<br /><br />In order to change the progress of this epidemic, I believe more energy should be shifted towards the children. In any given situation, people know that children are more likely to change their minds about something, learn a language so why not teach them to alter their eating habits. In France, obesity has begun to attack their youth. They implemented computer systems that have each student’s weight, height and other pertinent information included or their student body card. Before they can get lunch each day, they are required to construct a nourishing lunch. They did mention that this was expensive and risky but the government felt that it was worth it.<br /><br />Food is not the only problem plaguing the youth. I teach dance and I have not only witnessed the increase of obese children in my classes but also seen it occurring in younger and younger children. I have teenagers that can hardly do two pushups and four-year-olds that will focus for an entire ballet class just to get McDonald’s as a reward. My own sister would much rather spend her hard-earned money on the latest diet then workout on a regular basis. This country spends more on diets than any other and coupled with eating poorly puts an even larger strain on the human body. <br /><br />Even when America complained that fast food was unhealthy and demanded a healthier alternative, the fast food companies made more aesthetic changes than healthy ones. They began selling a larger variety of salad dressings and some companies even sold chicken in place of beef on the menu. This is all great, but the problem is that these same companies piled so many appealing (and again unhealthy) additives onto these healthy changes that the new products were worse for the consumer than the original. <br /><br />Since no one with power is willing to invest in a healthy America, the children have taken it upon themselves to live healthier lives. They don’t need a warning label on this fast food, no one does. America just needs an alternative. Americans need fast food that truly is nutritious and healthy. This country doesn’t need grilled fatless children that is marinated in soy sauce or taco salads that come with chili on top. <br /><br />The number of those that are just overweight is large than those that are obese. Also, the number of those that are well on their way to heart disease is larger than both groups combined. Not only do I agree with the children suing the fast food industry but I believe that anyone that has the opportunity to do so should become a plaintiff. David Zinczenko is correct regarding the availability of this inexpensive and filling food but I don’t think that warning labels on fast food will detour people from eating unhealthy. <br /><br />I can’t believe that emergency vehicles are available in a super-size because the normal vehicles aren’t equipped to carry obese people. This is an additional charge because they come with a built-on forklift among other additives. There isn’t a quick fix for this epidemic; it’s been infecting consumers since the creation of the first fast food restaurant. I dare the powerful to overhaul these fast food eyesores and create fast, costly and healthy alternatives for the consumers. Most consumers wish they could eat healthier but don’t have the time nor the money to do so. If fast healthy alternatives were available as much as current fast food, I think that America would make the right choice.Savina EUCLIDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14045566968406353058noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8541552795161687041.post-90102480975094629982009-03-31T21:24:00.000-07:002009-03-31T21:26:32.880-07:00The only ones who really have a shot on American Idol 2009.The only ones who really have a shot on American Idol 2009.<br /><br />Anoop – wants to be an R&B singer; sang usher’s “caught up” but he’s got the laid-back balladeer style of a Luther Vandross. He has a rich voice and a sweet and seductive stage presence. The man is charming and will become a singer, and I’m certain that he’ll be a superstar with or without American Idol.<br /><br />Adam – only used the same lyrics when he sang his funky-blues version of “Play That Funky Music White Boy” by Wild Cherry. And he broke it down in his own style, played with the audience and showed America that he is a pop star who is comfortable in his voice, body and element. And he was the only one who gave props to the musicians.<br /><br />Lil – chose Celine Dion’s “I Surrender” not because she grew up listening to this song, not because she loves the song but because the judges kept asking for a crowd pleasing ballad. She didn’t grab my attention in the beginning but she grew on me and her hair was the bomb for her (I’m not suggesting that everyone go and get a Lil Haircut). On a side note, she did what the judges, not America, who will be buying the records, asked and they still gave her shiznitle. No matter how effortlessly she reaches new heights sing her voice alone, and it isn’t good enough for them because they won’t her to win and they’re using this lame attempt to make the public think otherwise.<br /><br />Kris – was the final performer of the night. He sang his rendition of “Ain’t No Sunshine” by Bill Whithers. Instead of playing the guitar, he busts out his piano playing ability. Performed well but he just plays because he loves playing, sometimes he forgets that he needs to connect to the audience. His good looks and talent just might be enough for people to him anyway.<br /><br />Those with a shot if they can bring their game instead of just enjoying the ride.<br /><br />Danny – “What Hurts the Most” by Rascal Flats. Danny rehearsed pulling out the emotion. He attempted to sing sincerely instead of screaming at the crowd. He started the song well but didn’t find a way to connect to eh audience. He did manage to give himself through his voice, once he closed his eyes, but I don’t know if he can truly continue to bring it.<br /><br />Alison – takes a stab at No Doubt’s “Don’t Speak” while she plays her guitar at the same time. She played for the first time and he threw off her game. She is a sixteen year old, who vocally is much older, but she needs more training. She still has issues with tempo and her richness wavers in and out. It’s clear that she’s a passionate rocker chick but there are a lot of passionate people who have problems channeling their energy towards one focal point<br /><br />Scott – “Just The Way You Are” by Billy Joel. This seems like an obvious choice seeing as how Scott is much more comfortable behind a piano. He often allows his love of playing the piano dominate his voice. I don’t think that he’s a bad singer but by continuing to do this, he presents his vocals as being less powerful than they really are. He doesn’t need to separate himself from his extended instrument; he just needs to have vocal moments, piano moments and conversations between the two at balanced intervals so that everyone can appreciate his gifts. This song choice was a great fit for him since Billy Joel is a singer/songwriter and that’s what he is aspiring to do.<br /><br />The others.<br /><br />Megan is beautiful but she sucks. Maybe she can sing but everything I’ve listened to her do sucks. This week, she attempted Bob Marley’s “Turn Your Lights Down Low”. She F-ed it up. I couldn’t even feel that she felt the song and she’s definitely not listening to the judges when they give her constructive advice. If American chooses her, they are definitely looking for beauty over talent.<br /><br /> Matt – is in the center. He isn’t bad but he isn’t great. He sang, “You Found Me” by the Fray. I’m sure that he sounds amazing in his garage or in front of his friends in whatever on a smaller stage in his hometown but in comparison to those that are developed in all the areas that will give any singer a shot at having the potential to have a vibrant career, he still has a long way to go.Savina EUCLIDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14045566968406353058noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8541552795161687041.post-55949786557279313442009-03-09T20:48:00.000-07:002009-03-09T20:49:30.668-07:00AT&T U-Verse treats Public Access, Educational, & Government Channels like Second-Class CitizensThe latest AT&T U-Verse device is intended to make television channel selection faster than ever. People will be able to fly through the menus, and choose their channel of interest in a matter of 1-2 seconds. This holds true for all channels, with the exception of the Public Education Government (or PEG) channels.<br /><br />It takes the average person more than a minute in order to connect with their PEG channel of choice. This will be one of several reasons that PEG channel viewer memberships will rapidly drop.<br /><br />This is unfortunate since often times, it is the PEG channels that relay urgent and/or life-threatening messages to the local community that they serve.<br /><br />With AT&T’s disregard for PEG, channels, cable television is looking at placing these channels in butt phuk Egypt, somewhere in the 900s. This means that citizens will have to PAY for local news that could potentially save their lives… if they ever find it.<br /><br />The abundantly growing use of PEG channels amongst colleges and universities is also threatened, since these channel wills no longer be closed-captioned and students will no longer be able to record their classes and watch them at their convenience.<br /><br />It’s unfortunate that mass technology is looking to streamline the nation and wipe out the small communities that define it in the process. The FCC will make the final decision on whether or not this feature will be adjusted tonight.Savina EUCLIDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14045566968406353058noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8541552795161687041.post-73274331301666559492009-01-29T05:08:00.000-08:002009-01-29T05:10:31.166-08:00Where are they now...?Some of my choices range from having completely disappeared to being just as active as ever. I made my decision based on the frequency that I see them on European television coupled with my own curiosity.<br /><br />Delta Burke – was seen regularly as one of the stars of Designing Women, a television sitcom that aired until 1993. She still participates in a variety of television, movie and theatre spectacles when the role fits her but Delta Burke remains a successful designer and manager of Delta Burke Design, which is headquartered in New York.<br /><br />Wesley Snipes – is an American actor, martial artist and film producer. His movie career took off after appearing as Michael Jackson's nemesis in the video “Bad.” Once his acting career was dominated by movies that went straight to DVD, Snipes started a security firm for celebrities with his brother. The duo tried this twice, both times having their company connected to a religious cult. Since the two weren't even able to protect themselves, their business was quickly pummeled. Snipes also has had problems with the IRS, most of which simply involve him forgetting to pay his taxes for several consecutive years. He has a second home in South Korea with Nakyung “Nikki” Park, who is the mother of his last four children.<br /><br />Tom Selleck – is a tall, dark and handsome man with a sexy voice. He was the star of Magnum P.I. and played several other well-developed characters in movies, television, commercials and made for TV movies. His first television appearance, and consequently his second, was on the Dating Game. Even though he lost both times, he was still discovered and his career continues to flow and he continues to dazzle fans today with his charming acting, producing and writing talent.<br /><br />Keshia Knight Pulliam – is better known as Rudy Huxtable from the Cosby Show. Her first television appearance was as Keshia on Sesame Street. She graduated from Spelman College with a Degree in Sociology and has appeared on a couple of game shows. She has been trying to shake off her “Rudyness” by modeling in lingerie and dancing in music videos.<br /><br />Nathan Lane – has been an active actor in television, film, theatre and otherwise since 1975 and resides in New York with his same sex partner.<br /><br />Michael Anthony Richards – stand-out comedy style began in 1980. He announced his retirement from the stand-up comedy world in 2007, in order to take a “spiritual healing” journey with his wife in Cambodia.<br /><br />Benjamin “Benji” Gregory Hertzberg – had a diverse assortment of appearances prior to landing the role on the hit show Alf. He enlisted in the United States Navy in 2003 and is currently an Aerographer's Mate.<br /><br />Amanda Bearse – is a comedienne and director who was also one of the main characters in Married with Chidlren. She officially came out as a lesbian in 1993 and currently lives in Atlanta, Georgia with her daughter Zoe.<br /><br />Soleil Moon Frye – is an actress, director and screenwriter, who is still known best for her role a Punky in Punky Brewster. Soleil is married to Jason Goldberg. They have two daughters and Soleil opened an environmentally-friendly children's boutique in Los Angeles, California.Savina EUCLIDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14045566968406353058noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8541552795161687041.post-46509844993333575042008-12-22T06:09:00.000-08:002008-12-22T06:12:22.759-08:00Murder is MORE Acceptable than having small tits<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Llh8ZuDQcVY/SU-gPDjdrlI/AAAAAAAAABg/o9eoZUeAEHg/s1600-h/fake+boobs.jpeg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 239px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Llh8ZuDQcVY/SU-gPDjdrlI/AAAAAAAAABg/o9eoZUeAEHg/s400/fake+boobs.jpeg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5282617068441415250" /></a><br />Cynthia Sommer was convicted two years ago for murdering her Marine husband, Todd Sommer. She put a deathly dosage of arsenic in his food. Not because she didn't love him anymore, not because he was cheating on her and not because someone paid her to do it. Well, she did do it in order to obtain his life insurance money so in the end, someone did pay her to do it. She used this money to buy two things that she felt would truly complete her life: breast implants. <br /><br />On Thursday, April 17th, 2008, she was in prison awaiting trial when forensics results came back stating that there were no traces of arsenic in his blood. Both organic and inorganic arsenic has no smell or trace and if the body is not checked within a short time after ingestion, the tests must be completed soon after ingestion or exposure; but I am sure that those involved were aware of this fact. Since she has already been to trial for murdering her husband, she cannot be tried again for the same crime due to double jeopardy. She is free to wave her tits where she pleases and openly admit that she murdered her husband for bigger boobs. And her implants do look damn good it's just what's on the inside that's messed up.Savina EUCLIDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14045566968406353058noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8541552795161687041.post-86067902323385959332008-12-22T05:47:00.000-08:002008-12-22T05:59:39.570-08:00Interesting Laws in the U.S.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Llh8ZuDQcVY/SU-dPyDrr9I/AAAAAAAAABY/0gq1f4ecWq0/s1600-h/no+spitting+in+public.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 100px; height: 100px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Llh8ZuDQcVY/SU-dPyDrr9I/AAAAAAAAABY/0gq1f4ecWq0/s400/no+spitting+in+public.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5282613782389698514" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Llh8ZuDQcVY/SU-dGqv10rI/AAAAAAAAABQ/bT1WhZVxb88/s1600-h/oral+sex.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 294px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Llh8ZuDQcVY/SU-dGqv10rI/AAAAAAAAABQ/bT1WhZVxb88/s400/oral+sex.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5282613625808605874" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Llh8ZuDQcVY/SU-c9THZK4I/AAAAAAAAABI/nJTv64OPies/s1600-h/croc+in+bath.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 299px; height: 199px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Llh8ZuDQcVY/SU-c9THZK4I/AAAAAAAAABI/nJTv64OPies/s400/croc+in+bath.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5282613464846117762" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Llh8ZuDQcVY/SU-cukKIZUI/AAAAAAAAABA/S2lKCBz6T0M/s1600-h/nuns_with_guns.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Llh8ZuDQcVY/SU-cukKIZUI/AAAAAAAAABA/S2lKCBz6T0M/s320/nuns_with_guns.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5282613211722966338" /></a><br />...dumb, stupid, blue, weird, strange, bizarre... laws.<br /><br />This isn't even half of what I've read but narrowed it down to the strangest, stupidest laws in the U.S. that I could find.

Everyone has the space to do his/her own thing without coming into conflict/contact with another being.<br /><br />When people have many options to be extroverted, they begin taking “risks” with safety nets, which yields open-mindedness since the person that you critique will soon have the opportunity to do the same to you...<br /><br />Munich is efficient with its competitive traditional core/heart where environment and nature come together but never meet. Its only outside of business; in the body/in the homeland where everyone has the space to do his/her own thing.<br /><br />When people only have the option to be extroverted in the office, this yields conservative/introverted behavior with regards to other aspects of life...Savina EUCLIDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14045566968406353058noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8541552795161687041.post-44969586152802751352008-12-18T09:01:00.000-08:002008-12-18T09:13:36.610-08:00PornographyPornography is clearly one venue that grows economically, no matter how horribly others markets are progressing. The industry definitely was started for men, and continues to target men over women. There are more videos available that are targeting women, but often times, these videos target couples and are bought by women because the majority of women buy videos that depict some aspect of “real” sex. <br /><br />Searching online and using only one search engine, I was able to retrieve 21,000,000 results for the word “pornography” and 217,000,000 for the word “porn.” I am certain that any combination of other words could open the doors to even more possibilities. And all that is available in the real world just makes viewing sex between strangers, more or less, unavoidable.<br /><br />It is obvious that this market originally targeted men, who needed to masturbate, since the videos of each couple ran just long enough for guys to rub one off. During that time, a couple of core shots were filmed including blowjobs to dominating positions to the grand cumshot finale. And it is clear that this industry still targets men. <br /><br />http://www.internet-filter-review.toptenreviews.com/internet-pornography-statistics.html<br /><br />This market spent decades exploring various types of fetishes and expanding in every which way possible, except for making more videos that target female customers. Instead, the market first turned to couple-oriented videos, assuming that men would purchase them. But this was when the market realized that there is a world full of women.... who will.... buy.... pornography.<br /><br />Even with this knowledge, there has yet to be any extensive expansion in this area. Many involved in the porn industry believe that even though this market is growing, they are not willing to take a risk and profit from women at the same level that they profit from men.<br /><br />http://www.maxporn.com/top_rated">http://www.maxporn.com/top_rated<br /><br />Men and women are different and have different needs sexually. Since the choice for what women can realistically use is relatively limited, a lot of women are purchasing couple videos. <br /><br />The couple videos and videos that target women mainly show “real” sex shots and not simply what looks good on a camera. The later is easier to accomplish, unfortunately, there seems to be a large percentage of men, who whole-heartedly believe that what is being done on camera is what “real” sex should be like. And with every shot basically involving the same thing, as previously described, they also believe that all women need the same, in order to be pleased.<br /><br />“Real” sex shots are not always easily viewable through a camera, but anyone that has ever tried to please his or her partner knows one when he or she sees one. And people, mainly women, that prefer these shots are not simply interested in seeing two perfectly enhanced bodies go at it in pretty surroundings that are more interested in looking good in each shot then having sex. <br /><br />There are some female producers, directors and such working hard in the porn industry, in order to change the focus. More people are willing to risk putting all of their money into fetishes that are still targeted towards men, and riskier than developing more female (non-couple) targeted porn. Those that are successful providing what women want are simply profitable because the female pornography consumers are still virtually ignored overall.<br /><br />http://www.hothothot.de/<br /><br />http://www.hothothot.de/<br /><br />http://www.pornmoviesforwomen.com/femaleporndirectors.htmSavina EUCLIDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14045566968406353058noreply@blogger.com0
