The Relationship Bucket LIst | Psychology Today

There's a booming genre in wee books of things to see or do "before you die." I don't read these books, but Australian hospice nurse?Bronnie Ware's?recently-published book,?The Top Five Regrets of the Dying,?did catch my attention.

Ware found that her patients' regrets weren't about things done imperfectly. We forgive the imperfections of our actions?and we regret our?inactions. The inept parent, for example, can forgive himself at the end. At least he tried. But the one who never attempted it might feel the sting of regret.

I was most intrigued to hear Ware?describe the number one regret as a failure of courage. Her patients wished that they had had the?courage?to live the life that they wanted to have, whatever it was, and not the one that others had prescribed for them.

I believe that wisdom applies to marriage and relationships. There are couples who are content with the marriage and family life status quo, certainly, but there are others, well-intentioned and married to decent people, who struggle with that status quo and would like to create a different life, if only they could muster the courage to try, to ask a tough question, to make a change, to speak honestly, or to color outside of the lines. ?

Whatever the case, it occurred to me after listening to Ware that the bucket list that really seems to matter is about relationships more than activities, experiences, things, or travel. ?

So here's my list of some human encounters that we should try to have before we die. I bet that any of these relationship experiences would be as sweetly-recalled at life's end as having seen the pyramids, or that time you tried bungee-jumping in a parking lot.

?

FIND THE "I'D LOVE TO GO TO THE GARBAGE DUMP WITH YOU" BEST FRIEND. This friendship is so effortless and rejuvenating that you'd rather be in the company of that person, even doing the dreariest chore, than almost anywhere else. The wonderful Anne Lamott writes it best:"When you have a friend like this, she can say, 'Hey, I've got to drive up to the dump in Petaluma?wanna come along?' and you honestly can't think of anything in the world you'd rather do." ??

BE A TORCH CARRIER (BUT NOT A STALKER). It's good to experience both being the lover and the beloved at some point in life, both Dante and Beatrice. Often in romantic relationships, the roles are asymmetrical in this way, although we don't like to admit it. Unequal love in romantic relationships is as much an unseemly, unspoken truth as parental favoritism. But there's a bittersweet pleasure to clutching an abiding, unrequited passion in your memory. The object of desire remains an ideal, untainted by actual consummation. And there's a courage, too, although best appreciated retrospectively, in having made an ass out of yourself for love?so long as you can take no for an answer, and quit. ?I've not been a stranger to my own "make an ass" out of yourself advice, but it's a small, unavoidable price to pay for agency and self-determination.

AT LEAST ONCE IN YOUR LIFE, HAVE A LOVE AFFAIR WITH YOUR WORK. Lord knows few of us think of our work as a relationship, to say nothing of a love story, but it can be. It can elicit powerful emotions and profound devotion and joy. In other words, it can be a love affair. I love my work. I love the process of it. I love it even when I fail at it. The work itself satisfies, on its own terms and not instrumentally for any secondary praise, glory or wealth (hah!) that it might bring. It's such a gift to wake up in the morning and have a big old crush on your job, or your new project.

BE A DEFENDER OF THE WEAK. At least once, and hopefully habitually, be the one who stands up for someone weaker in a social group. Don't be the lemming. In middle school, I was the beneficiary of a more popular, prettier girl who stood up for me, the social weakling. When I had a chance to do the same for her, however, in a different time and place, I didn't. I was a lemming instead. And 32 years later, I can?still?feel keenly the shame of having gone along when I should have stood up. I only vaguely remember being the occasional bully victim-but I?do?remember, and rue, having enabled a bully. That shame sticks.

BE THE "COOL GROWN-UP"?that someone else's child remembers, years, later, as a hazy blur of panache and style. I always wanted to be this, but haven't been.

HAVE THE PLEASURE OF STAYING UP ALL NIGHT TALKING (TO OTHER PEOPLE, THAT IS). These evenings are some of my favorites. My husband and I were very close to one couple some time ago. Our evenings with them would start with dinner and wine, and end when the sun was coming up over Baltimore's downtown. We'd talked and laughed so much that my sides hurt, and my voice was scratchy that whole next day.

HAVE A CRAZY-MAD LUST-LOVE RELATIONSHIP?that involves, say, spending days entirely in a hotel bed and never tiring of each other's carnality. Keep the blinds down, and drink good wine while you do this, and don't forget that everyone would be insanely jealous if they knew, so you should keep it to yourself.

BE SOMEONE'S "REALITY-BASED" FRIEND.?You courageously get to say, and do say, all of the unpleasant truths and hard advice. The friend hearing it might loathe you for having said so at first and then, years later, thank you for your candor, which they come to see as a gesture of caring.

Elizabeth Blackney: Generations X and Y: Grit, Freedom and Triumph

The film Act of Valor opened this weekend with an unprecedented cast. Active Duty Navy SEALs star in the gripping tale of global terrorism and heroic acts undertaken to stop it. The tag line, "The Only Easy Day Was Yesterday" rings true for children, teens and young adults in Generation Y. Their childhood has been dominated by images of war and terrorism. Their fathers, brothers and friends have fought and died, fought and lived and protected freedom for their fellow Americans and our Western Allies.

Their emotional palate is complex. More than any previous generation, the sheer volume of information via media, social networking and the capability for near-instant communication around the clock are the norm. On Act of Valor's soundtrack is a young man named Hunter Hayes whose insightful songs lend a glimpse into the hearts of Generation Y.

They are the children of Baby Boomers, Generation Jones and GenXers. More than anything, they are fearless creators of content. They are brave souls looking to make a difference. In 2008, so many were inspired to believe in Obama's youth appeal. Because they are saturated with information but also, so very young and naive to dangerous behavior that seems enshrined by reality television. We must look at what tomorrow's leaders need from us, their parents and mentors. Not everything they hunger for is base and vulgar. The stratospheric success of Taylor Swift, Carrie Underwood and other crossover musicians as well as scandal-free movie stars like Rachel McAdams and others bends the curve.

Generation Y isn't buying what the rest of us are selling. Not every kid is lining up to be a ne'er do well.

Listening works. It's the best way to earn trust, build rapport and develop insight. I had a conversation recently with country music's sensational new face, Hunter Hayes, and was impressed. Our wide ranging discussion about fame, hard work and creative vision was remarkable. This talented young man is a force to be reckoned with.

At age two, he was tinkering with instruments. At age four, he had already been on stage with Hank Williams, Jr. He knew from age six how to articulate his path from music prodigy to professional, working musician. He wrote his first song. He envisioned learning every instrument he wanted and needed to play to achieve his dream.

While in high school, he spent free time on his craft. He played the guitar, the drums, the bass, the piano and many other instruments. In class, he would get through his day by self-encouragement. I asked him what that looked like, "I would look at my watch, if it was 10:00 AM, I knew that I would just be rolling into town on my tour bus. If it was 2:00 PM, I knew it would be just about time for sound check."

The uncanny similarity to other youth rings true. Other students and youth I have interviewed in recent months exhibit a similar drive. One young woman I recently spoke with has known for years what her path will be. Every step she takes is with an eye towards graduate degrees and a spot as a curator at an internationally renowned museum. Her friends have similarly ambitious ideas. One wants to be a designer and founded a successful youth group, partnered with nearly a dozen stores and is launching her career. Another young man I recently interviewed at a Global Studies program in Virginia has known for years that he is destined to attend a service academy, preferably in Annapolis, so he can become a pilot. He knows the salary, the benefits and when he wants to get married. Another wanted to attend Annapolis, serve in the U.S. Marine Corps then become a criminal defense attorney. Another wants a career in the music industry and works daily at her craft, writing and devoting every free moment to the development of her angelic voice. These are Hunter Hayes' constituents.

Hayes' work ethic is clear. His "brand" did not require the careful hand of a studio head. He is authentic, down to earth and genuine. He spoke of living his dream and coping with fame, "It's very freeing to know nothing has to go the way it did yesterday." Of finding calm amidst the storm he created with hissmash single "Storm Warning," Hayes mentioned how grateful he is to be living his dream. His competence as a composer, writer and leader have drawn together a group of musicians that highlight his prowess. Hayes dominates without being dominating. He is also a savvy leader, noting his father's advice to "never do business with anyone you wouldn't do dinner with."

His music is real, and his incredible gifts are on display. When we spoke, he was just wrapping up a tour with Rascal Flatts and playing a solo date at The Norva in Norfolk, Virginia. The room was filled with young women, men and their families. He scoffed at the pressure to "write, record, sing, do the perfect song." Instead he noted there is a "desperate call for an honest song."

With all the grit, the coarseness and lowest common denominator on offer much of the time, Hayes gave this GenXer hope. The youth, they are our tomorrow. Trusting in their vision is sometimes the right thing to do. This young man, nominated for an ACM, who once opened for Taylor Swift now sits on the precipice of his own meteoric rise to the top. Just like the rest of the young men and women in Generation Y who will be tomorrow's leaders, tomorrow's diplomats and iconic artists, Hayes' clean, honest brand is like a fresh warm breeze right before the storm.

17 Tons of Treasure Flown From Florida to Spain



In this undated photo made available by the Spain's Culture Ministry, a member of the Ministry technical crew displays two of the 594,000 coins and other artifacts found in the Nuestra Senora de las Mercedes, a Spanish galleon sunk by British warships in the Atlantic while sailing back from South America in 1804, in a warehouse in Tampa. (Associated Press)

By WILLIAM R. LEVESQUE
TAMPA BAY TIMES

Published: Saturday, February 25, 2012 at 8:41 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, February 25, 2012 at 8:41 a.m.

TAMPA | The treasure arrives at its original destination Saturday, 208 years behind schedule.

Two Spanish cargo planes departed MacDill Air Force Base on Friday bound for Madrid with $500 million in booty once carried by a Spanish galleon that sank off the coast of Portugal in 1804.

The treasure, weighing 17 tons, might be the richest shipwreck prize in history.

Recovered by Tampa-based Odyssey Marine Exploration in 2007, the flight marked the end of a bruising legal battle the company lost to Spain over possession of 594,000 silver coins and other artifacts.

Spain's ambassador to the United States, Jorge Dezcallar, told more than two dozen reporters and camera crews that Spain was finally reclaiming what was rightfully hers.

"We bear witness to that fateful day 200 years ago," he said." This is about our historical heritage. History makes us who we are, and today we are witnessing the end of a journey that started 200 years ago. It is our duty to end that mission successfully."

He said the treasure will eventually be displayed in museums in Spain and elsewhere. "This is not money to be sold," the ambassador said.

Officials at Odyssey Marine, which spent $2.6 million salvaging, transporting and storing the treasure, declined to comment. But in a statement earlier, Greg Stemm, Odyssey's co-founder, said, "People won't stop looking for Spanish shipwrecks. They will just stop reporting their finds. No archaeology will be done."

The company will receive no compensation from Spain for its recovery of the coins.

Spain thinks the coins were recovered from the wreck of the Nuestra Senora de las Mercedes. The ship was sunk by British warships as it sailed from South America. More than 200 people went to the bottom with it.

But Odyssey officials say the wreck was never positively identified as the Mercedes, casting doubt on Spain's claim.

A federal judge in Tampa ruled for Spain in 2009.

"The ineffable truth of this case is that the Mercedes is a naval vessel of Spain and that the wreck of this naval vessel, the vessel's cargo, and any human remains are the natural and legal patrimony of Spain despite any man's aspiration to the contrary," the judge's ruling said.

Earlier this month, U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas rejected a bid to reverse a lower court ruling that Odyssey give up the treasure.

Odyssey, which uses remote-control vehicles to help recover undersea wrecks, called its Mercedes project "Black Swan."

Spain argued that the recovery of the treasure amounted to a disturbance of a historic site.

Javier Romero, a rear admiral in the Spanish navy, said, "Our sunken ships are sacred places. They are cemeteries. We prefer to leave the ships as they are."

James Goold, a Washington lawyer representing Spain, was asked if Spain should express its "gratitude" to Odyssey for recovering the treasures.

What if Spain, Goold said, took a relic from the sunken battleship Arizona at Pearl Harbor?

"Would the United States have gratitude then?" he said.

Friday's event may have been unprecedented for MacDill, which has hosted presidents, diplomats and its share of odd cargo through the years, but perhaps never before silver bullion.

The treasure, packed in white buckets wrapped in black plastic, arrived from an undisclosed location in Sarasota.

Local television stations used a helicopter to try to capture the transfer from Sarasota to Tampa. As the treasure arrived at MacDill, base officials took it to a hanger.

Air Force guards toting M-4 rifles stood between reporters and the two C-130 aircraft carrying the coins.

After a brief news conference, the media were led to an opening by the back of the aircraft to photograph pallets carrying the treasure. But the coins themselves were not visible.

A reporter asked the ambassador if Spain was trying to quickly spirit the treasure out of the United States to avoid further legal trouble.

With the treasure lost for two centuries, the question seemed to flummox Dezcallar.

"This," he said, "is not quickly."

FCC thinks ISPs should do a better job preventing fraud, theft

Internet fraud and theft are major problems, there seems to be little doubt about that -- according to FCC chairman Julius Genachowski, some 8.4 million credit card numbers are stolen every year. The question, then, is who should be addressing the issue. Genachowski this week called for "smart, practical, voluntary solutions," asking internet service providers to put more effort into helping prevent data theft, hacks and other issues, or risk having "consumers lose trust in the internet," thereby "suppress[ing] broadband adoption and online commerce and communication." The chairman asked ISPs to help avoid hijacking through more efficient traffic routes and to instate DNSSEC to help weed out fraudulent sites.

Mick Jagger calls President Obama's singing 'courageous'

WASHINGTON ? The reviews are in, and Mick Jagger sizes up President Barack Obama?s singing of the blues this week as nothing short of ?courageous.?

The Rolling Stones frontman said Thursday the president did ?very well? when bluesman Buddy Guy successfully prodded him to join in on a few lines of ?Sweet Home Chicago,? the blues anthem of the president?s home town, during an East Room concert earlier in the week.

?I thought he was courageous, because there was some element of reluctance,? Jagger said, adding that ?it was a hard moment for the president to get out of.?

Jagger, in a phone interview with the AP, also said he was pleased to see that first lady Michelle Obama was wearing a dress that night designed by L?Wren Scott, his longtime girlfriend, who had a front-row seat for the concert.

Jagger, 68, said he?s never been invited to play at the White House before ? or for any head of state ? and he rated it a ?surreal gig experience.?

?I loved it,? he said. ?It was really unusual, surreal, and strange, but very enjoyable. ? I went out there and I tried to put out my best.?

What?s next for Jagger? He said he?s on a minivacation on the East Coast with his kids, and they were heading out the door to play soccer.

But will the Stones get together this year for a 50th anniversary tour?

?I hope we certainly do something,? he said. ?It would be very appropriate, I think, and I look forward to doing something. But nothing is yet booked.?

Jagger and other blues greats played the East Room on Tuesday as part of an ?In Performance at the White House? concert that will air Monday on PBS.

Public still opposes auto bailout, poll finds

By Paul A. Eisenstein, The Detroit Bureau

While the U.S. auto industry may be ?back,? as President Barack Obama recently declared during his State-of-the-Union address, that hasn?t changed the fact that a majority of Americans remain opposed to the 2008 ? 2009 bailout of Detroit.

A new Gallup poll finds 51 percent of those surveyed still disapprove of the $85 billion rescue effort, with only 44 percent?saying they approve.? And the figure is even more lopsided when party affiliation is consideredD.? The poll, conducted for the public radio program Marketplace, found 73 percent?of Republicans opposed ? though 63?percent?of Democrats were supportive of the bailout.

Americans keeping cars longer than ever

Though the results are still in negative territory, overall, that?s still a significant improvement from 2009, when various polls?showed that the vast majority of Americans, regardless of political persuasion, were unhappy with the use of taxpayer money to save General Motors and Chrysler.

The numbers have been slowly moving back into positive territory, various surveys have found, especially as the two once-bankrupt makers have started posting solid earnings again ? and have been adding thousands of new jobs.? On the other hand, reports that the U.S. Treasury could still lose perhaps $20 billion on the bailout ? especially if GM?s stock price doesn?t rebound ? continues to throw up a red flag.

Hertz asks for federal oversight for recalled cars

And the GOP presidential contenders all but trip over one another in debates and stump speeches, to turn the bailout into a liability for President Barack Obama.

During a Wednesday night Republican debate in Phoenix, former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney said, ?I think it was 2008, President Bush was still in office. And the three chief executive officers of the three major auto companies got in their private planes and flew to Washington, and said: please write us a check. I think they wanted $50 billion. And I wrote an op-ed in the paper and I said: absolutely not. Don?t write a check for $50 billion.?

Toyota turn to fleets to inflate sales

While the bailout is likely to remain a subject of contention for some time, the new Gallup poll isn?t entirely negative for the auto industry overall.

?There was a time when the auto industry and our positive/negative image ratings was down at minus 35; that was in 2009,? said Gallup editor-in-chief Frank Newport. ?In fact, it was second only to the oil and gas industry, which interestingly ? perennially ? pulled up the bottom on that.?

Now, he noted, the auto industry is back in positive territory, with a plus-10 rating.? That?s still well below the image of the computer industry but well ahead of oil and gas ? and the federal government, which now ranks dead last.

Do you approve of the auto bailout?

Pastebin Upgrades Service, Adds Private Pastes (All While Being Under Attack)

Screen Shot 2012-02-22 at 2.48.44 PMEveryone's favorite way to share thousands of pages of sensitive information (and dump PHP code that you might use later) has upgraded to what it's calling version 3.1. This new version, in addition to some cosmetic changes, includes one major upgrade: private pastes. The system currently supports public and "unlisted" pastes - two types excellent for anonymous sharing - but the private pastes require users to create an account with the service. Private pastes are truly private while unlisted pastes simply don't show up in search results or on Pastebin's popular paste list.

Palin aides lash out at HBO's 'Game Change' (omg!)

JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) ? Current and former aides to Sarah Palin lashed out Wednesday at HBO's "Game Change," describing the upcoming film's depictions of her on the 2008 campaign trail as "sick" and inaccurate.

None of the aides said they have yet seen the movie, which debuts March 10, and some said they had asked for an opportunity to screen the film but had been denied.

Trailers for the film, which is based on the bestselling book chronicling the 2008 presidential race, have been released, however, and some snippets appear to cast Palin in an unfavorable light. As portrayed by Julianne Moore, Palin is seen complaining about how she's being handled by political advisers and mumbling about missing her baby, who was born in April 2008. In one snippet, campaign strategist Steve Schmidt, portrayed by Woody Harrelson, describes her as being on the verge of a nervous breakdown.

Aides said none of that jibes with their own experiences with the former Alaska governor, and they defended her vigorously Wednesday.

Jason Recher, who handled vice presidential road operations for the McCain-Palin campaign, called Palin "one of the most engaged public servants I'd ever observed." Tom Van Flein, her former personal attorney, called her diligent, sharp and enthusiastic about the campaign.

Meg Stapleton, a former spokeswoman, said that she, unlike some of the others who worked with Palin during the campaign, had not been contacted by anyone associated with either the book or movie.

"They don't want to hear anything good," she said, her voice full of passion. "We all know Palin sells and the dramatization of Palin sells even more. This is sick."

"They mock Gov. Palin, you mock Gov. Palin, as weak and unable to cope and press forward," she told reporters on the conference call. "And the movie and the trailer ... say that. And yet look with your own eyes at what she and her family have endured and inspired over the last few years. Any lesser man would have hanged himself by now. So who's weak?"

Recher noted that Palin wasn't the primary focus of the book, and he said he told screenwriter and co-executive producer Danny Strong that the book "absolutely, unequivocally" did not accurately reflect his time with the McCain campaign.

Filmmakers have said that they sought historical accuracy.

Director Jay Roach last month said he wrote a long letter to Palin seeking an interview with her to help the film, "but I got a very quick email back from her attorney saying, 'I checked, she declined.'"

Strong, in an email, acknowledged that members of Palin's camp asked to screen the film but said filmmakers responded that they would privately screen the movie for Palin and her husband. He said Sarah Palin declined the offer.

The film portrays Palin "in a balanced light," he said, "showing her strengths and weaknesses as the vice presidential candidate."

In addition to the book, Strong said the movie is also based on 25 interviews conducted with members of the campaign by himself and Roach. He said secondary sources include Sarah Palin's book "Going Rogue," other books written on the campaign and "innumerable" newspaper and magazine articles.

Palin did not participate in Wednesday's call. Tim Crawford, the treasurer of the political action committee SarahPAC, who facilitated the call, said Palin is on the record as considering the movie a false narrative, and wrote about her experiences in one of her books.

How To Get Rid Of Stds With Antibiotics

There are certain antibiotics that can be very effective in treating amoeba and bacterial infections that are generally characterized as sexually transmitted diseases. However, some common side effects of using antibiotics are nausea and stomach discomfort. These drugs should be taken with a full glass of water, and depending on your tolerance you may need to take a full meal in order to make the drug work better. Most antibiotic medications are used in a wide range of conditions ranging from respiratory tract infections to sexually transmitted diseases, from urinary tract problems to acne. And you may find yourself taking the same drug for treating syphilis and throat infection.

Despite the fact that STDs have become quite widespread, it still seems to be a taboo for discussion in our society as the large public is not willing to discuss these diseases and their treatment openly. People know that there?s a problem with the raise in rates of sexually transmitted diseases infection, yet no one is speaking out loud about the subject, and when someone gets infected the treatment is usually conducted in strict confidence.

In most cases STDs can be cured because a large part of them consists of simple bacterial infections that affect the genitals, such as gonorrhea, chlamydia or syphilis. These are the most widespread STDs, and they can have no symptoms at the initial stage, making the patient believe that he or she is perfectly healthy and able to have unprotected sex, leading to further spread of the infection.

- Gonorrhea is considered as the most common sexually transmitted disease and is usually treated with a course of antibiotics like Doxycycline. If left untreated, this infection can lead to inflammation in the urinary tract and further infertility.

- Chlamydia is another common disease that is transmitted sexually. It is treatable, but as with other STDs if it is diagnosed at a later stage and not treated it may severely damage the reproductive system and lead to infertility both in men and women.

- Syphilis was a very serious and even deadly health problem in the past before penicillin was discovered. However, even if using advanced antibiotics like Doxycycline, if the disease is diagnosed at a later stage a course of treatment won?t reverse the damage to tissue and organs syphilis is know for. The effects are not limited to infertility and can actually lead to death if left untreated.

Another very important aspect is the fact that sexually transmitted diseases can appear again even if they already were treated in the past. A treatment course won?t make you immune to gonorrhea or syphilis and you still have to think about protection if you want to avoid re-infection. Otherwise you risk experiencing the same problems again and again, which will significantly impact your health in general.

If you suspect that the person you had sex with is infected or you are infected, don?t lay off your doctor visits ? the earlier you are diagnosed with a disease, the better even if there are no visible symptoms of the problem. The earlier you start treating a STD the easier it will be to do it and you will be able to avoid permanent damage to the body (especially in case of syphilis). However, the best way to treat STDs is not taking antibiotics like Doxycycline but to use protection during sex for preventing the transition of diseases in the first place.

HOW TO DINE OUT ? A USER&#39;S GUIDE FOR THE CLUELESS ...

The perfect finish to a delicious meal. Photo by ZBM

Some people have about as much business dining out in restaurants as?Tara Reid?has being cast in a?Shakespearean play on?Broadway.

Hopefully, the latter will never happen, but there are thousands of patrons out there that don?t have a clue about how a restaurant works.

These are the same people that don?t?understand why their flight was canceled during a blizzard.

Luckily for you, my job is to educate and enlighten the masses. And I am confident by the time you finish?reading this post, you will be ready to tackle any culinary experience. Now this is not a complete list, but?seven basic guidelines to follow the next time you sit down to dinner:

1) If you?re?not?ready to order, and that includes everyone in your party, don?t call the waiter over. You?re server?has more important things to do than to listen to you weight your lofty decision of whether or not you should get the Cobb Salad or the New York Strip Steak?

2) Don?t recreate the menu. I know you?re a?whiz?in your own kitchen. That you can boil water and pop frozen?dinners into the microwave with one hand tied behind your back, but there may be the slightest chance that the?chef that created the menu (keyword in the sentence ?created?) just might know a little bit more about cuisine?than you.

3) Don?t go to an expensive restaurant, and order a soup or salad as an entree. These are?appetizers, not?main courses, and if you cannot afford a full meal, then go to a restaurant that won?t blow your budget. Trust?me, there are plenty of them. ?Where do you think I eat?

4) If you?re?unhappy?about you table, the price of a mixed drink or the sound of the drunk guys bellowing?laughter at the table next to you. Don?t take it out on your waiter?s tip. Even most kitchen mistakes are beyond?your server?s control. Likewise if the food is taking a long time, it?s usually not your waiter?s fault. And by the?way, the kitchen staff could careless if you stiff the waiter.

5) Since we?re talking about?tipping. Gratuity should be based on how your server handled your table. From?the first greeting, to the delivery of drinks, to answering all your stupid questions (Can I have the cucumber?salad without cucumbers?), to recommending dishes, and finally dropping the check in a timely fashion. And?when a waiter goes above and beyond, it?s a complete insult to tip below twenty percent.

For instance, it?s your friend?s birthday, so you pull the server to the side and request something special. At the?end of the meal your server gathers up all the other waiters (who are busy with their own tables), puts a candle?in a piece of cake and they present the dessert to your friend with an enthusiastic ?Happy Birthday song? Any?tip under 20% is an?insult, yet it happens all the time.

6) Don?t set up camp. Staying longer than an two hours in any restaurant especially a busy one, is just rude.?Unless of course, your party is more than six people. Then it is perfectly acceptable to stay for three hours, but?not four and certainly not five. This is a business, not your living room.

7) Finally for all of you ?regulars? out there. If you are demanding, require excessive attention or speak to your?waiter in the same manner that you would command a dog, let me give it to you straight -

The Entire Staff Hates You!

Those smiles are fake and let me assure you that they are cursing your name behind your back from the?moment you enter until the moment you leave.

Bon Appetit!

How to Use for any Position On the web | Sztuka sieciowa

Source Make Money Online

In an increasingly on the net market place, applying for employment frequently implies sending your resume and cover letter electronically. Some businesses have on the net application types appropriate on their Internet websites. Here, you can decide on the job you want to apply for, plug your function knowledge, knowledge, and training into on the net fields, then submit this details having a single click on of a button.

On the net application types vary from yet another and will need different details. For example, some businesses inquire which you ?copy-and-paste? your resume and cover letter into two fields. Other individuals inquire that applicants fill in many fields this kind of as ?work knowledge,? ?education,? and many others. Nevertheless other people inquire which you do both-submit your resume and cover letter, and fill in fields that need the identical employment-related details.

No matter what variety of on the net application sort a company may have, be certain that all of your details is posted in a single subject or yet another. Really don?t be frightened to repeat details, particularly when the sort requests a resume as well as a separate breakdown of your function historical past. Your details will probably be routinely uploaded into an internet database, in which employing professionals will most likely scout for key phrases. The greater times your key phrases arrive up, the better.

Although some companies-especially big ones have on the net application types, many other people simply inquire candidates to e-mail their application supplies to your appropriate human being or to some standard employment deal with like ?hiringmanager@anycompany.com.? Here, caution is warranted. You?ll want to send your resume and cover letter precisely since the employing manager requests. Some employers want that the resume and cover letter be hooked up as separate paperwork (typically within a Text Only format or as Microsoft Word paperwork). Other employers want the cover letter for being while in the body of an e-mail, nevertheless the resume for being hooked up individually. Nevertheless other people want that equally the resume plus the cover letter be pasted into your body of an e-mail. For that latter, be certain that your paperwork are straightforward to study. Resumes, that have a rather complex format, frequently look messy after they are transplanted into your body of an e-mail. Says recruiter Beth Camp: ?If you e-mail a resume, it?s got to look as good like a composed resume. I would advise sending a resume equally being an attachment and while in the body of your e-mail.? This can be a good method to sidestep a feasible formatting fiasco. Another way is usually to send your resume and cover letter electronically, then to send hard copies also.

Some jobseekers choose to acquire domain names and to create their very own Internet websites to the intent of placing their resumes (and also other application supplies) on the net. The advantage of formatting your resume making use of HTML and making it a static Website page is any individual can see your resume in its suitable format simply by visiting your website. As a result, instead of mailing or e-mailing your resume every single time you would like an individual to view it, you can simply give the intrigued parties the right website deal with and so they can uncover it for themselves. An additional bonus of getting your resume on the Website page is you could draw in the curiosity of recruiters and employers whom you hadn?t even regarded as. For making downloading your resume simpler, you could want to consist of on your Web site copies of your resume in PDF (transportable document format) and Microsoft Word files.

However, you will find downsides to placing your resume on the Web site. One downside is your details will become obtainable to all of us, even undesired site visitors. Because of this, it is best to never ever disclose your own home deal with, social safety quantity, or every other private details. Another downside is not all employing professionals will go from their method to visit your website. Even though your resume is only a click on away, many employing professionals would however want which you mail or e-mail it.

With regards to the way you send your application supplies, it might be unwise to go towards the explicit wishes of an employer. For example, really don?t send an attachment when copy-and-pasting is requested. Some businesses shun attachments due to the fact they anxiety getting a virus, or due to the fact they do not have suitable software package, or due to the fact they simply really don?t want to be bothered with the extra step of opening a document.

When assembling your application supplies and placing them into an e-mail, really don?t fill while in the ?to? subject until that you are finished. It?s all too straightforward to unintentionally send a half-finished e-mail to some company, consequently eliminating your likelihood of making a decent very first impression, and most probably, of getting an interview. Should you ended up asked to copy-and-paste your resume and cover letter, make sure you scan the ultimate end result at the very least as soon as for formatting complications, then to utilize a spell checker a closing time.

Should you are attaching your paperwork, be certainly guaranteed that you are attaching the right versions (i.e., the company-tailored and updated versions) to your employer. Also, be certain that they are labeled within a skilled way. One jobseeker laments his selection to save lots of different versions of his resume underneath headings like ?Resume for Strategic Sourcing Careers.? Says the jobseeker: ?I was applying for a few different forms of positions. But I failed to want every single possible employer to recognise that. By labeling my outgoing resumes the way I did, I basically broadcasted the truth that I failed to have a very apparent vocation route.? In all probability the most beneficial approach for saving your resume is usually to achieve this underneath your identify only (example: Simone Piette resume) or underneath your identify plus the identify in the company (example: Greenfield resume from Simone Piette). You?ll want to say with your e-mail that which you have hooked up, as well as, what software package you?ve employed. For example, you could possibly say while in the body of your e-mail: ?Please see my hooked up resume in Microsoft Word edition 2002.?

Before a employing manager even opens your e-mail, she need to know precisely who that you are and which task that you are applying for. Inside the ?Subject? line, write your identify, the placement identify (and task quantity, if detailed), plus the contents of your application (example, ?Simone Piette resume and cover letter for Executive Assistant Position?).

If you?ve been referred to some placement by yet another human being, make sure you ?cc? (carbon backup) or ?bcc? (blind carbon backup) your reference if you apply. That is definitely, include that person?s e-mail to your ?cc? or ?bcc? subject, which will allow that human being to get an exact backup in the e-mail you might be sending to your employing manager. The purpose you should ?cc? or ?bcc? your referrer is since you want to retain him while in the loop. In any case, if an individual has provided that can assist you, he need to understand what stage you might be at while in the application procedure. (Take note: Some e-mail plans really don?t offer you ?cc? or ?bcc? fields, by which situation you can expect to want to e-mail your reference individually.)

Ultimately, make sure you help save a backup of your outgoing e-mail with your ?Sent Mail? folder, just in the event the e-mail does not go through and you also need to send it once again.

CLA USA Helps Seniors with Seniors Estate Planning | Free Article ...

For seniors, estate planning is a subject that can raise a lot of uncomfortable feelings. CLA USA agents understand those feelings, but also understand how important planning can be for both the individual and the individual?s family. A well-planned estate can ensure that you have all the assets you need to live out your life comfortably, while protecting the assets you intend to pass on to the next generation. In short, there?s far more to senior estate planning than writing a will and setting up a retirement fund. CLA USA agents specialize in explaining and providing the many conservative financial planning tools and products that are available to help seniors put together a comprehensive estate plan. Agents with CLA USA will even work with your tax professionals and attorneys to ensure that every aspect of your financial plan serves your needs properly.

At CLA USA, seniors estate planning can encompass any of the following important aspects.

Income Generation
CLA USA focuses on conservative financial planning tools and investments to protect your wealth during market corrections and downturns. For seniors, asset protection is often more important than income generation, but there are income-generating investments that can fit into your future financial plans.

Asset Protection
The uncertain markets over the past several years have driven home the point that no investment is ever completely safe, but there are financial products and tools that are safer than others. A well-conceived seniors estate plan will include strategic asset allocation that protects your wealth from erosion and helps you preserve your assets for your own use and to pass the remainder to your heirs.

Seniors Estate Planning
Without a properly structured estate plan, your loved ones and heirs may not receive the assets and legacy that you intend for them to have. Planning your estate while you?re still alive can ensure that your belongings are distributed according to your wishes and reduce the stresses on your family and loved ones after your death. It?s important to work with senior estate planning professionals who stay current with the frequent changes in estate planning to ensure that you get the most up-to-date advice and information.

Retirement and Income Planning
Today?s seniors aren?t entering their golden years with the prospect of living another five or ten years after retirement. With the advances in medicine and the focus on health, many retirees will enjoy 25 years or more of retirement. That means that your retirement nest egg has to stretch twice as long as you expected. An experienced financial planner can help you position your assets and choose financial tools to provide lifetime income from your retirement nest egg.

Tax Planning
Taxes can take an unexpectedly large bit out of your estate and wear away at your retirement income. Tax planning is a vital part of both retirement planning and seniors estate planning. It can take the form of tax-deferred vehicles, special insurance trusts and other strategies to ensure that your heirs receive as much of your estate as possible.

Insurance Products
Life insurance, long term care insurance and other types of insurance can ensure that you are properly cared for throughout your life and that your family is properly cared for when you aren?t there to make the decisions for them. From choosing the proper beneficiaries for life insurance plans and retirement plans ? including surviving spouse benefits from your military and other pension plans ? to providing for your expenses in the event that you need long-term care in your older years, insurance has an important role in senior estate planning.

CLA USA is a financial services company headquartered in Frisco, Texas. For over 20 years, CLA services have focused on assisting seniors with estate planning and asset management for retirement. The company is highly regarded, and holds an A+ rating from the Dallas Texas Better Business Bureau, as well as comparable ratings in other cities where CLA USA does business. For more information about conservative financial planning and senior estate planning, contact a CLA USA agent to schedule a consultation to learn more.

Motorola Droid RAZR, RAZR MAXX update pushing out

RAZR OTA

Update: Because so many people are just starting to get the update (thanks for the e-mails, everybody!), we're going to bump this post -- something we try to avoid doing for obvious reasons.

Original from Feb. 6: If you're the proud owner of a Motorola Droid RAZR, or it's brother with a bit bigger gas tank the Motorola Droid RAZR MAXX, (read the review of the MAXX right here)  there's an OTA update ready and waiting for you.  Version 6.12.173.XT912.Verizon.en.US (there's no way we could make that one up) started slowly rolling out over the weekend and is now pushing hard and heavy, and chances are you can grab it yourself by simply going to Settings>About Phone>System Updates.  

The update itself is about 150MB in size, and updates the software to Android 2.3.6.  I know many were wanting Ice Cream Sandwich, but this update brings some welcome bug fixes and security patches, so we'll gladly take it.  The full change list, line by line:

  • Mobile Hotspot will now successfully allow other devices to connect to all
  • Improvements in the Mobile Hotspot security.
  • VZ Navigator has been updated with the latest 3D map improvements.
  • Visual Voice Mail messages can be marked as read.
  • Visual Voice Mail message playback resumes when audio is switched to speaker.
  • Visual Voice Mail will successfully subscribe or unsubscribe while connected with Wifi.
  • Successfully press back key after playback in Visual Voice Mail without error.
  • V CAST App now comes preloaded.
  • MotoCast installation steps have been improved for easier use.
  • Improved stability of data connectivity after Airplane Mode is disabled.
  • Improved data throughput performance in low-signal 4G environments.
  • Improved Battery life when using Phone Book Access Profile (PBAP) Bluetooth headsets.
  • Successfully save multimedia ringtones.
  • Favorite Contacts widget has been updated.
  • Improved device stability when moving between home screen panels.
  • Email icon has been updated for improved visibility.
  • When performing an Over the Air (OTA) update, the display will correctly show the remaining download time.
  • CMAS (Commercial Mobile Alert Service) feature has been added.

That's a hell of a list, and seeing improvements with 4G data connectivity is certainly something everyone likes to see.  Things should go smoothly after this one, but if you hit any snags or just want to discuss it all, be sure to hit the forums!

Pursonality Plus ? Blog Archive ? Health and fitness and Physical ...

Feb

Sure?it is really possible! The word ?addiction? give us photos of people today in dark rooms, listening to terrible new music and sticking needles in their arms, but a number of addicts can be uncovered in the fitness center or on the community college track, receiving just as addictive a deal with. In fact, the good naturel of the word ?healthy? can make wellbeing and physical fitness addiction all the far more alluring. Irrespective of the constructive press, health and fitness addicts have completed as considerably hurt to their households and lives as any other type of addict. In this content, we will search beneath the surface of health and physical fitness addiction and get a route to recovery.

How Can A thing So Fine Be Lousy? In our current Western tradition, the ones prepared to pay out the price tag for physical fitness are to be applauded. There are just so a lot of temptations to do normally. Training is typically monotonous, agonizing and smelly, so those who endure it for about an hour, 3-five times a week, have realized a stage of self-discipline most only dream of.

Well-being and conditioning addiction is not about overall health or physical fitness?it?s about a compulsion to use wholesome things to do to fill a void we see in ourselves. Addicts are compelled, not disciplined. The addictive chemical compounds concerned in training are substantially the exact as individuals in sex and porn addiction. This may perhaps demonstrate why a lot of men and women go through from the two sexual addictions and overall health addictions.

Sorts Of Well-being And Health and fitness Addiction: These are addictions to the activities of well-being and physical fitness, as opposed to the Tv, Web-based and browsing addictions which could entail health and fitness themes. Well-being and physical fitness addictions are compulsions to interact in ?healthful? actions, like activity, dieting, etc. In reality, anorexia and bulimia nervosa have both equally been described as significant well being and physical fitness addictions. Two main signs or symptoms of these psychological problems are activity and dietary command to a compulsive and excessive overwhelming. The specific physical exercise or diet program will not issue. It?s an addiction when you feel compelled to do it.

How Do I Know I?m Addicted? We addicts really don?t usually figure out addiction since a well-known symptom of addiction is denial, which is even better to have about wellness. That is why it really is better to acquire out from a mate or cherished a particular if you have a trouble in this place. For overall health addiction involving eating, see Anorexia Nervosa Quiz. Listed here are some factors to enjoy out for about conditioning working out addiction:

1. Do you repeatedly commit more than eight several hours a week exercising and is the time you dedicate boosting?

2. Does your workout plan interfere with natural relatives actions, residential home or operate duties?

three. Do good friends or spouse and children members complain about the time or capital you expend on fitness?

four. Have you wondered if you might be simply being too compulsive about your fitness software?

five. Have you lied to your family members, good friends, or employers about the time you commit in physical fitness routines?

six. Do you usually see health and fitness as a way to develop acceptance or praise from people?

seven. Have you at any time pushed so really hard in your conditioning plan you damage by yourself?

If you answered indeed to any of these doubts, you ought to think about yourself at danger of addiction. If you answered of course to three or a great deal more, you happen to be quite possibly addicted.

How Do I Recover From Health and wellbeing And Fitness Addiction? This is brought on by an unfavorable self-image, like any other addiction. As a substitute of booze, you use work out to fill a void you experience in yourself. Since the relief made by physical fitness is only temporary and you turn into conditioned, you will need routine raises in the action to provide the very same relief. Compared with booze, a particular number of fitness action is mandatory for wellbeing, so, you won?t be able to just quit. Instead, we have to hold ourselves to no far more than an hour a day, three-5 times a week.

Shell out the rest of the time you put to use to exercise heading to AA or other addiction conferences and engaging in self-growth routines. You could read, go back to college, be a part of a volunteer group. You could just take up a pastime, like gardening or building up style airplanes. To aid in making by yourself up, keep away from adverse psychological inputs, like the news, drama, damaging, insulting colleagues. Replace those with very good songs or looking at or other actions that establish you up. Push all the harmful, self-defeating, restricting ideas out of your thoughts with advantageous, uplifting, encouraging ideas.

Due to the fact there are pitfalls that overall health and health and fitness addiction could acquire into full-blown anorexia, if you try and fall short to get a tackle on your addiction, be sure to see a medical professional. Quite often clinical and psychological remedy can stop an even more significant issue from producing, and allow for you the mental energies you have to get management of you.

Health and wellbeing and conditioning addiction can be just as severe as any other addiction. It can imprison us into destructive, compulsive routines. We can destination our people, our careers, even, ironically, our well-being at threat by way of addiction to physical fitness and other conditioning pursuits. The beneficial news is, there is hope for anybody eager to are living in and get the job done on recovery.

Cheap Android phones to dominate developing world

Google

By Athima Chansanchai

A new report reveals that Android's global takeover may reach a fever pitch by 2015, when it may account for 80 percent of developing markets, in countries such as Africa, India and China.

The lower-costing Android smartphones will be the ones with the most potential for landing in consumers' hands in these markets, according to In-Stat, part of the NDP research group.?

In a summary of the report, In-Stat states elaborates on those phones:

The low-cost Android smartphone segment is comprised primarily of smartphones released with Android 2.2 or 2.3, since these versions are a good blend of features with modest memory and processor usage. The low-end low-cost smartphones generally stick with EDGE and processors running at 600MHz or lower, because a single-core EDGE chip sells for well under $10. For our purposes, low-cost means smartphones that are $150 or less. Smaller phone manufacturers will sometimes purchase from the ?gray market? where component manufacturers typically don't pay licensing fees, royalties, or taxes for the products they produce. Early competitors in the market include Huawei, MicroMax, Motorola, Samsung, Spice and ZTE.

In-Stat predicts that 340 million units of these phones will ship worldwide in 2015, and that their presence may very well disrupt Google's plan for unified upgrades and continue the fragmentation that has plagued the operating system. There is also continuing problems with app infections of the open source system, though Google is trying to counter those intruders with increased security measures.

But first, Android has to continue to duke it out with iPhones, which surged in sales amongst smartphone buyers late in 2011 with the introduction of the Siri-sensationalized iPhone 4S. Apple continues to close that gap and be a formidable adversary to compete with Google domination. Maybe resistance isn't so futile after all.

xbox live is killing my relationship - Talk About Marriage

I'm new here, and here's a little about me. I'm a 24 year old attractive woman who is active duty military (home-ported) and new here so I am on a light schedule 2 days work 2 days off etc etc. So I am home a great deal of time, and when I am not I am only 2 miles away from our home.

My husband is 26 years old and is a retired army vet who sustained injuries causeing him to be medically disabled, he isnt in a wheelchair or anything, he's physically capable of doing things just his medical problems ake it nearly impossible to sustain a traditional civilian job so he is at home.

When we were dating, before we were married he had no addictions, he had an xbox and rarely used it, maybe he'd get onlineto play with friends he knew IRL from time to time but it was nothing major and I considered that normal. Now he has "friends" he made while playing the game and acts as if they "depend" on him to play with them to level up or whatever.

After I got out of bootcamp we gpt married and moved to michigan where I am stationed. The first few months here were rocky, he's go to the casino from time to time and spend large amounts of money when we didnt have things for our house that we wanted. Well, we fixed that by talking it over and creating a budgeting system. So that problem is gone, or its just way too cold out for him to want to go anywhere.

Recently, he bought the COD MW3 game and it feels like thats all she wrote. He no longer/rarely calls/texts me while I'm on duty at work. And when I'm home he'll get on there and 4 or more hours will go by leaving me to feel as if I shouldnt have come home in the first place. We'll be watching a movie on netflix or hulu and he'll say something like "oh so and so's on" like he wants to stop what we're doing and do that.

I feel like I'm here in real life so I should be more important. I'm hurt, I feel ignored and discarded as he is also increasingly moody if I ask him to do something non-game related. I'm hoping this is just a phase, like a new toy thing children go through because I have no idea what to do if it lasts. Please offer any advice possible and if your SO went through this game or something similar how long did it last?

The last 2 days I was home he was "normal" like maybe played an hour or 2 each day, but today I'm back at work and hadn't heard squat from him until about 5pm. Am I a bad wife or something because I work and we dont have children? This whole situation just depresses the crap out of me.

Worldwide Timeshare Complete Management Buy-Out

Worldwide Timeshare today announced the completion of a management buy-out from its parent company, Worldwide Leisure Group. The move, which was finalised earlier this month, means that the company is now 100% owned and controlled by its current management team.

The buy-out includes Europe?s largest timeshare resale company, Worldwide Timeshare Hypermarket, and the rapidly expanding Worldwide Timeshare Exchange, both key industry players that will continue to be run as separate entities.

?With our newly found independence, we look forward to accelerating the growth of the two companies and strengthening each company?s position as market leaders? said Managing Director Phil Watson.

Phil Watson has successfully led the company over the past decade and even with the current economic challenges facing the travel and leisure industry, has an extremely positive outlook. ?We have already seized the opportunity to take on new premises and have begun plans to roll-out a new range of holiday products for our existing customers and to open up new markets.?
