Last night, I watched a Scottish film called Ratcatcher (1999) written and directed by Lynne Ramsay. The film belongs to a genre near and dear to my heart: the coming-of-age film. It follows a boy named James, who lives in a working-class neighborhood of Glasgow during the 1970s garbage strike.
In one of the earliest scenes of the film, James accidentally contributes to the drowning death of his friend Ryan and races away from the scene of the incident before being noticed. Though James secret remains largely under wraps, the death of Ryan haunts him periodically throughout the film as he hears of Ryan and returns to the canal. The film repeatedly uses water imagery, again referring to the death of Ryan as a defining incident for James story.
Ratcatchers use of accidental death reminded me of several other films with adolescent protagonists that also witness the death of a peer. What function does death serve in such films? What imagery and themes link films that use such incidents in the coming-of-age tale? And how does class impact this usage? (Other identity issues also come into play since race, gender, age, and sexuality all play important roles in developing these characters. While I would love to delve into each of them, I will set them aside for the time being to focus on class)
In the case of Ratcatcher, Ryans death seems to be linked with James working-classness. With the majority of the films action taking place during the garbage strike, the films cinematography highlights the filth that piles up in the neighborhood. Meanwhile, James family regularly discusses their application to move into a brand-new housing project, a plan implicitly derailed when James allows the applications evaluators into the familys messy apartment while his father is recovering from a hangover. James desire to leave the neighborhood is further highlighted when he takes a bus trip to a neighborhood under construction outside of the city.

local health clinics. If the results come back positive for type A flu virus, the case is labeled "probable" and forwarded the samples to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta, Ga., for confirmation.
In addition to the classroom disruption, the school district decided Thursday - after waiting 36 hours too long for the test results because of an unrelated swab error - to cancel this year's Run for Fitness, an annual exercise event of about 2,000 students to raise fitness awareness. The event at Luigi Aprea Elementary School will be rescheduled soon. No other events have been postponed, Flores said.
The county health department's precautionary closure of Rucker was the first such school closure in Gilroy and the sixth in the county. The decision came as officials were waiting for test results from Saint Louise Regional Hospital. The initial swab analysis taken there from the 10-year-old girl in the fourth grade was inconclusive and had to be retaken, and county officials thus labeled the suspected sample a "high priority" Thursday, said Molly Carbajal, a health department spokesperson. Saint Louise representatives refused to comment.
The sick Rucker students were mostly fourth graders but included at least one first grader, according to Rucker Principal Barbara Keesaw, who said "a couple" of students' families visited Mexico during spring break two weeks ago. The closure did not affect state standardized testing, which will resume when the school reopens Monday, Flores said.
When Rucker closed at its normal time Thursday - an hour or so after the county decided to close the school - Melissa Valdez, who takes care of a first grader after school, said she thought the health department should shut down the whole school district, which serves about 10,000 students. She also questioned the prudence of closing just one school, whose students are bused in from different areas in and around Gilroy - unlike other neighborhood schools.
"These are not just the country kids. These are kids from all around Gilroy," Valdez said as she held a bright pink letter that Flores wrote to guardians about the closing.
Lisa Muzzio appreciated the prompt notifications and advice from the school district - which reportedly bought up all the hand sanitizer at Costco Thursday afternoon - but she said she would stay calm, continue to practice common sense hygiene and encourage her sons in fifth and second grade to do the same.
"I'm not going to panic. There's no sense to that," Muzzio said.
Councilman Perry Woodward was down in Mexico with his wife and two young children in Cabo San Lucas this week, which sits at the southern tip of the Baja Peninsula. The professional pilot with a private plane housed in San Martin took a commercial flight to Mexico Monday before the CDC issued travel precautions, and he said Wednesday people "were still partying," but in thinner crowds than usual.
Down in Mexico City, Gilroy High School teacher Gretchen Yoder-Schrock is on a Fulbright exchange, but her life and those of her two kids "have been radically altered" after schools across the country closed April 24. She washes her hands about 30 times a day, but there's not a lot to do - concerts and other public events in Mexico City are canceled, restaurants only sell food to go, and movie theaters, gyms, and pools are closed.
"Its been nearly a week that we've been cooped up but we are staying entertained," Yoder-Schrock wrote in an e-mail. "Thank goodness for the Internet!"

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
-"Give us time to get the results. We don't want people panicking." - GUSD Superintendent Debbie Flores
-"In hindsight, I should've taken my plane." - Councilman Perry Woodward, a pilot speaking from Mexico about his impending commercial plane trip home
-"Right now we're treating this as a suspected case." - County health department spokesperson Molly Carbajal talking about one of seven Rucker students who have flu-like symptoms

Masks: What to look for
-According to a Consumer Reports blog (blogs.consumerreports.org/health), wearing a mask "makes sense" for people who are likely to be exposed to the virus, such as someone caring for a sick person.
-Consumer Reports advises looking for a mask labeled N-95 or higher, which means it has been cleared by the FDA. If you choose to wear a mask, it should fit tightly over your nose and mouth with no gaps. For the most effectiveness, masks need to be worn as long as you're in a high risk situation and replaced after each use.
-Masks are no replacement for other preventative measures, such as frequent and vigorous hand washing.

So, here we have the final act. It's the easiest to write, but the hardest to write about; at least, I think so.

Again, before we go further, remember: this is my way, and the way of a few writers I know. It is NOT the way of every writer I know; it is not the only way; it is not an iron-clad rule or something which requires complicated flow charts (although the post Patrice Michelle linked to in comments for the last post, which was a post she wrote about, essentially, keeping a flow chart, is a great post and a great method for people who can work that way) or strict word-count deadlines (I'm using a 90k book as an example, and ending the acts at 30k, 60k, and roughly 90k, but you may vary by as much as 10k words or whatever and that's fine). No secret gun-toting Writing Police are going to show up at your home in the dead of night and arrest you for not doing this or not doing it properly or whatever.

These are just guidelines. It's the way I keep the story from getting away from me and the way I keep my pacing on-target. It's not something to obsess about. It's not something to force yourself to do. As Patrice said, if you're writing your first novel or your second or you're still feeling your way through this writing thing (which we all are to some extent, really, no matter how many books we've written), don't get all tangled up in this. You can always go back later and see how you've done and fiddle with it then.

Okay?

So. We've now written our first act, in which we laid out all of our clues and introduced our main characters, and we ended that act with a bang. We've written our second act, where we deepened our mysteries and conflicts, and added depth to our subplots. We also ended the second act with a bang; hopefully a hell of a big one, which turned everything around, but again, this depends on the book.

Our third act is about solving our problems. Whodunnit? What happens with our detective Jennifer's grandma in the home and her ex-lover? Does she end up with him again, or is she suddenly realizing she's got a thing for one of the cops or the drug dealer or whatever? What deadly jeopardy is Jennifer in--or about the be in--when the second act ends, and will she survive act 3? Will anyone? In comments to the last entry Patrice and I discussed how the information a character receives shouldn't come easily. It's not true for everything but for most of it; well, that's where your story actually comes from, right? The difficulties and complications of getting necessary information and/or aid? It wouldn't be a very interesting book if in Chapter Four Jennifer found an eyewitness who told her exactly what happened, and then they just went and caught the Bad Guy, right? (Unless you're going for courtroom drama, of course.)

Anyway. Patrice suggested that sometimes information is paid for in lives, or in giving up things which are important to the characters. And that's very true. So the question of whether everyone survives to act 3, and whether everyone will survive act 3, is a pretty big one. What is your MC going to lose in the climax? What will she gain? Is what she gains going to be worth it?

I digress. The point is, Act 3 is where everything comes together. All those subplots we started, and all those clues we planted, all those threads we expanded on? It's time to wrap them up.

And it's fun. The tricky thing about the third act, though, is making it fun and interesting for the reader as well. Oh, sure, they're going to be interested in your climax and the solution to the mystery or resolution of whatever the conflict is. (Personally, I adore those big Agatha Christie-esque "drawing room" scenes; I don't need a lot of action, I just want to read those slowly and savor them.)

But they're not very fashionable anymore, so usually what we end up with is a big action-filled climax, and I love those too. But you have to have raised the stakes high enough. And you have to keep enough tension going, enough conflict going, that it doesn't feel like you're ticking things off a list.

I generally up the pacing in the third act, which I think helps; shorter scenes. More active ones. A little less internal monologue. The reader feels the tension building, even if they're not conscious of it; they know something is coming, because the shorter scenes move the book along faster, and of course they're aware of how far into the book they've gotten, but it's pacing and increasing conflict which really works magic when we near the book's climax.

To me the third act is like knocking down dominos, for lack of a less-cliched image. I've set all these things up; I have loose threads waving in the breeze. Now I start grabbing them and tying them together.

In act 2 we had Jennifer place her grandmother in a nursing home, which happened to be run by the mother of one of the victims. Now is the moment when one of the nurses at the home can make a casual comment which rings a bell in Jennifer's head; perhaps Jennifer realizes the nurse had a heretofore unguessed motive to kill the first victim. And the second. (I feel guilty making a nurse the Bad Guy, btw; my mother is an emergency room nurse. Sorry, Mom. For the record nurses are AWESOME.) And of course, she had access to the drug which killed them both.

Now Jennifer has to figure out how to get out of the room and call the police. Perhaps the nurse twigs on to Jennifer's newfound knowledge? And insists that she take Jennifer's grandma to get a spongebath or something? And the director of the home, who of course has no idea, backs her up. Now Jennifer's grandma is a hostage, and Jennifer knows the nurse will kill her. Maybe the nurse thought Jennifer had figured it out before, and slipped something into Jennifer's drink.

This is all well and good; we have a climax. But we have other subplots which need to be tied up, and we need to do it before we get into our climax; not all of them, necessarily, and of course if we're writing a series we need to leave some open-ended questions, but some of them.

How you do this is up to you (hey, I warned you the third act was hard to write about.) For a 90k book, I generally start the real run-up to my climax at around 70k; in the above example, this would be when Jennifer arrives at the home. That way we're around 75k or so when she gets drugged and solves the mystery; it gives us some room to play. Your runup may be longer; my climaxes tend to be longer, involving as they do complex rituals and secrets and abandoned asylums full of zombies.

But if you've set up your first two acts properly, really, the third will essentially write itself. Honestly. You'll have some scenes and resolutions in mind; you'll have arranged events in such a way that logic will move you smoothly from one scene to another. And that is extremely important. The last thing you or anyone wants or needs is one of those blink-and-you-miss-it climaxes, or one where everything just falls into place and it ends up being more of an anticlimax than a climax. We've all read books like that, where we fly through 320 pages of excitement and then the hero shoots and kills the bad guy and that's it.

You don't want to do that. You want to make sure you planted enough seeds, and grew them, in the first two acts, that there's plenty of stuff to work with at the end. You want to try and tie at least one subplot directly into your climax; in PERSONAL DEMONS I had the msytery of Megan's past; it was a minor point throughout the book but without it the climax never could have happened, and it figured prominently therein. In our Jennifer example, without Grandma and her poor health we wouldn't have solved the murders. Perhaps Jennifer's ex is involved here somehow too? Maybe he calls her and she says something, an old private joke, which warns him she's in trouble so he can call the cops? However you do it, the key (IMO) to an interesting and fulfilling climax is to bring as many story threads as you can into it, and end them all with the biggest bang you can muster.

Here's the thing about structures like these. Whether you're using a three-act structure or a four-act structure or a twenty-two-act structure (NO, I've never heard of that and know nothing about it, ha) is that at some point, you have to stop setting your book up.

It has to stop. Your book cannot be 300 pages of setup, a climax, and an ending. Well, okay, if you want to look at it a certain way, that's what all books are, but you know what I mean and don't pretend you don't.

The longer your subplots are part of your story, the more interesting and surprising and satisfying their resolution will be for the reader. The more danger you put your MC in, the more exciting the climax will be for the reader.

A book where subplots and plots do not carry through all the way feels episodic; it's not a story, it's a selection of vignettes. This why I stop adding new subplots to the book after the first third (again, I may make an exception if a new character is introduced, but chances are that's actually more of a setup for the next book). Because at some point you have to work with what is already there. You have to deepen and expand what is already there. You have to sink into your story and work at it from the inside, rather than throwing more stuff at it from the outside.

And that's the other big thing (aside from pacing) this structure does for me. It forces me to work with what is already there. I can't write a deux ex machina, because I have to work with what is already there. I can't veer out of the story and suddenly decide to change the focus, because I have to work with what is already there.

It keeps my books focused. It keeps my mind focused. It keeps my pacing even and makes sure my middles aren't long saggy stretches of not-much-happening. It gives me discipline, and discpline is tremendously important for a writer.

So there you go. :-) Like I said, I think the third act is very difficult to write about, because what it essentially boils down to is 'finish the book'. Pick up the seeds and hints and clues you dropped and make sure they have a solid place to land. Make sure you keep the tension high. Make sure you use everything you can in the climax. Remember that if you've written your book logically, so your climax and resolution will also come out logically.

And then you have a book.

Questions? Thoughts.

Topic - love-erotic culinary, - will probably cause someones open protest. Someone will shrug his shoulders, grinning: well, whats the connection between kitchen and erotic? However, probably there will be some ones (and they will be in majority), who will treat such an unusual kitchen conversation with an evident interest. Lets be glad for them, as the information theyll receive will be useful for them for sure.
It will help to bring a freshness of sensations in a usual family mode, create an atmosphere of soul peace in a house, make a man and a woman partners not only in bed, during short moments of intimate closeness, but also in kitchen, where a big part of family life takes place. Such culinary serves as a base of family relations, as it teaches a husband and a wife to remain attractive and sexually active, regardless of age and life troubles.
However, every of you will be able to assure in this in practice. But lets start from theory.
The first country, where a system of cooking food in a so-called love style was developed, is considered to be India. Indian cooks were the first ones who noticed that a taste of sexual secretions depends on a taste of food. They paid a huge attention to scents, as, to their opinion, scent of food influenced body smell a lot, and the last, in its turn, stroke the keynote of love games.
Agree, its quite a logic conclusion. A heavy smell of body, caused by heavy food, not suitable to sexual needs, will hardly awaken sexual attraction. Thats why, dear married couples, if you want to be always desired, appraise critically what you eat, and if necessary, introduce proper amendments into your ration.
Fried food, especially in deep fat, affects a person negatively. Unfortunately, nowadays this is the most popular way of food treatment. Fats are heated up to 200 C and form carcinogenic substances.
We can say easily that fried food is contra-indicated to erotic mystery. In India any food, having a strong smell of fried, is considered to be harmful for sexual games. Such food creates an excess of slime, contributes to adiposity, tiredness, heaviness. As a result, when time comes to a love game, it isnt accompanied by trembling and excitement, and turns into a usual satisfaction of physiologic needs.
According to Indian culinary traditions, taste of food affects not only sensations, but also affects Spirit on a thin level. One combination of gustatory senses may cause delight and eroticism, and another - irritability and anger. Advantage of Indian cuisine is in freshness and natural foods, practical absence of preservatives, dye stuffs, various artificial additions, improvers of taste and other inventions of civilization. Fresh natural products, subjected to minimal temperature treatment, are wholesome not only for health, but also for love.
Chinese cooks are real trendsetters in erotic culinary, they eat exotic food, to our views. They do like swallows nests, stuffed eggs, fermented (black and looking like paste) chicken eggs. And a dish s fight is cooked of snake, frog and tiger.
Of course, we shouldnt necessarily obtain such products for a family meal. Nevertheless, you can take something from Chinese cuisine. Why not paying more attention to decoration of dishes? You know, food, decorated in a cranky way (say, cookie, baked in the form of womans lips, breast, nates) will attract attention for sure. Such culinary specialities will cause a gust of emotions, awaken imagination and fancy, tune to a proper sexual mood.
An idea of ritual dinner, ruling in Chinese cuisine, will be useful too, and, first of all, an idea of famous Chinese tea-drinking. This prolonged ritual contributes not only to rest, peace, removal of stresses, but also to rallying of all members of a meal, strengthening of a family.
Since long ago, only men have been cooking in China. Men-cooks are good judges of erotic cooking, like nobody else.
By the way, in China, having a thousand-year erotic culture, there was a special cook-erotic in an emperors staff. He cooked food, which allowed emperor to contact with hundreds of concubines constantly. Its known, that one of potions was cooked of antlers. Comminuted antlers were poured with honey and vodka, extracted on a special sort of wild cherry. Then 40 sorts of herbs and spices were added. A Chinese emperor drank such drink before entering harem. Servants of harem watched closely that emperor satisfied all the concubines (presumably, about 30 ones daily). Erotic power allowed to judge whether hes able to rule a country.
Certain food products have great impact on male and female sexuality. Products, bringing stimulant beginning, can be divided into 3 general groups: animal, vegetable and mineral. They are used either separately, or in combination, considering a concrete persons gustatory addictions.
Eggs of different birds are in the first group (chicken, goose, quail), milk (especially goats one), game (hazel grouses, quails), genitals of animals, mussels, oysters, caviar. Among exotic products of animal origin, antlers, musk gland, whale ambergris, rhinoceros horn have stimulant effect. Animals should be young and healthy, then all these remedies will be efficient.
Second, more numerous group, includes ginger root, fennel, ginseng root, mushrooms, black beans, some sorts of onion, pumpkin, carrot, rhubarb, figs, almond, pistachio and cedar nuts, fir seeds, sesame seed, cinnamon, nutmeg, saffron, some sorts of poignant pepper, raisins, walnuts, honey, millet, orange seeds, pomegranates. All plants should be ob high quality and gathered in a certain time.
Its known that sexual hormones are formed in organism under enough quantity of vitamins of reproduction A and E. They are contained in animal fats, chicken eggs, cod-liver, carrot. Vitamins of group B provide efficient conductivity of impulses through nerves, what is extremely important for sexual excitement process. They are contained in cereals and legumes, potato, dairy products, meat and fish dishes. Vitamin C contributes to normalization of blood circulation and affects genitals condition beneficially. Citruses are especially rich in vitamin C (oranges, lemons, grapefruits).
If meat, then only on a s an opinion that a man becomes a real sexual giant in bed, if you feed him to satiety with meat beforehand. This myth was invented by women, who didnt know peculiarities of male physiology. On the contrary, meat is some kind of narcotic, after which a man becomes weaker and loses self-control. After hearty supper, rich in meat dishes, he doesnt need sex already. His organism is tuned on other tasks fulfillment: he should digest heavy meat food, what leads a man to drowse and apathy. This doesnt mean that meat food should be completely excluded from erotic culinary. On no account: you know, meat is a strong source of energy. We offer you to bring to minimum unwanted affect of meat food on male potency through a special culinary trick: cook meat on a vegetable .
Cutlets can be cooked this way especially well. You can add any vegetables, herbs and spices in minced meat. Meat food requires a special dish to be served up, so that a cooked dish would be not only tasty, but also appetizing, showy. For example, you can pour shashlik or meat chop with cognac and burn before serving up. The effect is striking!
Earthenware crockery is very comfortable for cooking of meat dishes. Firstly, meat isnt fried in them, but stewed in an oven. Secondly, you can interlay it with various vegetables in several layers.
Every day - a surprise
Cuisine should be various. You shouldnt allow the same food appearing in it every day. Use various seasonings, sauces, spices, which can add an aroma of newness even to the most usual food. Say, why not adding dried apricots and raisins to a usual boiled buckwheat once, and slightly fried onion and walnuts - another time? In short, try, invent!
A real cooks skill is in his ability to cook something original of usual products. For example, a usual apple pie will cause lots of new sensations, if it will be with a surprise. You may use several sweet peas, added to pastry. The one who finds such surprise, will become a in a bed-room in a coming night of love. The more often married couple will arrange such culinary performances, the more inventiveness, fantasy and merriment they will show while doing this, the stronger their love passion will flame up.
Full stomach and sex are incompatible
Dont allow gluttony while meal. Supper shouldnt be bountiful. On East they observe the following rule: in order not to overeat, you should fill half of your stomach with food, quarter - water or other liquid, and quarter should be empty, to control breathing.
The following advices will also help to avoid overeating. Its better to start meal with some liquid: fresh tea, herb extract. Then vegetables and then - meat dish. Its desirable to finish meal with raw vegetables, fruits, roots, but not liquid (it was in the beginning) and fat high-calorie sweets.
Raw and sour vegetables, herbs, roots, natural dairy produce (milk, skim cotton cheese, kefir, cheese) should be on your table at any season.
Short period of hunger can have stimulant effect under condition that it is used with moderation and carefulness. Its known that vegetarian food can stimulate erotic desire. Indeed, its important to combine vegetable food with meditation, philosophy and good mood.
Love drink to your own receipt
Erotic games are impossible without wine. It relaxes, removes stress, and muffles uneasiness. However, dont misuse alcohol while meal before intimate relations. Learn cooking light drinks of fruits and herbs, rising mood and increasing sexual activity.
If you want to feel real love bliss, aura and mystery, then you shouldnt drink strong drinks - vodka, cognac, rum, gin. Create a receipt of your own love drink, which shouldnt be stringer than 10-15 degrees, otherwise it will stupefy you.
Include beer in your arsenal of love nectars. Japanese researchers consider it to be a Gods drink. It can be extracted on spices, herbs and leaves, like wine.
First rest, then food
When your man comes home from work, try to distract his thoughts from food somehow. Make him relax, forget about his problems, rise his mood, burn a fire of passions in him, and only after this prelude invite him to meal. Remember that a man in good mood is a pledge of full value sex, which will be able to bring satisfaction and pleasure to both husband and wife.
Men, to a gas-stove!
You are so tired after work and will hardly cook something with joy and happiness, and good mood is very important for cooking. So, allow your man to cook for yourself.
Many connoisseurs of culinary art consider that men always show more imagination and creation in kitchen, thats why dishes they cook distinguish themselves with more delicacy and piquancy, whereas women can cook traditional food better.
A man is always improvising, cook not according to a cook-book. Hes quick, movable, energetic, merry and active on kitchen. Its such a pleasure watching him. But helping him or although inspiring with your presence and praising will be even better. The main is that you never should lash your man for unfortunate cooking. This will dispel his entire further wish to cook.

Kendras given up on men, then she meets Val. The sexy new principle of their school refuses to let Kendra run away from her feelings and their relationship. When he forces her to confront her deepest fears, he shows her that they really are meant to be together.

In the twist on this rather classic romance tale, Kendra is a woman with a little something extra. A woman born in a mans body, she knew early on which gender she was regardless that she has a penis. But not having the perfect body of a woman has kept Kendra from dating. Her fear of rejection causes her to lash out and treat Val horribly. She cant believe that he could possibly want her, need her and love her so her response is to consistently sabotage their budding relationship and then run away. This fear of intimacy and emotion is an important aspect of Kendras personality as she seeks the very thing she fears. The author affords an honest characterization of actions and personality traits that will not always resonate in a positive way to the reader.

Kendra has hints of a sympathetic character, yet its difficult to like such a polarizing personality, even if its a genuine depiction. Her fear and anger cause her to spend a considerable amount of time ensuring no one will want to be with her, regardless of her body. I certainly understood why Val should leave her alone on numerous occasions, but at the same time I felt bad for Kendra being her own worst enemy. Shes always running off to bathrooms and seems to fall down quite a bit, leaving these characteristics as part of her sullen attitude rather than charming quirks. Its difficult to understand Vals persistent attraction to Kendra until near the end, but the hope exists that she may calm down with his consistent affections.

Val is not very well defined in that his emotions swing repeatedly and he lacks any real depth as a character. Hes mostly the perfect gentleman, never remarking on Kendras wild behavior and even going so far as to accept her almost abusive office sex. Why within the span of a week, he is in love with her and wants to marry her is a mystery considering Kendra spends much of the week actively working to have him dislike her. However, considering the context of Kendras emotional difficulties and the ending information about Vals proclivities, the relationship begins to make more sense. I just wish the author hadnt waited until the near end of the story to add this much needed depth and information to the at times chaotic mix of emotion and action.

There were positive aspects to the book in that the supporting characters of Kendras friends were well drawn, if not always likable. Additionally, both Kendra and Val are complex characters that show the mercurial nature of someone with a bipolar personality and thus swings from likeable to dislikeable but in an entirely realistic portrayal. The author definitely shows potential in her writing and characters, but the subject matter may limit her audience. Few books are able to look at the complex problems surrounding MtF transgenders with a realistic and untainted view, unafraid of the reader not being able to connect and relate to the characters. While this wasnt a book I entirely enjoyed, I didnt hate it and for those who are looking for an m/m twist on the classic office romance theme, this may fill that for you. If nothing else, this is an interesting and honest look at the problems and emotions surrounding an often ignored group of people.

Anyone who knows James Douglas Packer knows he does not like being written about in the media, which is ironic considering that very industry created his family's fortune.

In his more candid moments, friends say Packer has been known to unfavourably compare the number of column inches he receives in the press with that of every other child of an Australian family dynasty.

"Why don't the Lowy kids get this sort of publicity?" he is said to have asked rhetorically, as his personal financial wealth and status took a very public write-down.

The answer lies in the high-profile target presented by the Packer family name, and all it is associated with. In particular, it is a residue of the family's former standing as media moguls, having founded the country's leading television and magazine stable, the Nine Network and ACP Magazines.

Once, a certain amount of awe went with this status. The family long wielded considerable influence and built huge wealth with its assets, particularly Kerry Packer through Nine. Now, however, a journalistic lynch mob is delighting in seeing James, son of Kerry -- now a casino tycoon following the sale of all but a minuscule 0.07 per cent stake in Nine and ACP -- facing a world of financial pain.

When his father died in December 2005, Packer inherited a fortune estimated at $7billion. But the turmoil on financial markets has taken a terrible toll on his investments.

In May last year,
W magazine estimated his personal fortune at $6.1 billion. Since then, his listed investments have lost $2 billion, and even friends now privately estimate his wealth at between $3 billion and $3.5 billion.

He has lost at least half of his inheritance. That makes Packer's an easy head to kick. Social pages have salaciously taken over from business sections in covering Packer's falls.

As one friend puts it: "Someone like Twiggy Forrest can just say his losses were on paper, and that's his way of dealing with it, but James can't do that. His wealth has always been in the family."

Another close Packer associate says: "James has been a pretty easy target to have a go at, and have fun doing it. It's what goes with the name.

"Rightly or wrongly, Kerry was perceived as being a lot tougher. Maybe people aren't quite as scared to write about James."

This source was one of a number of friends, senior executives and board members at major companies in Packer's orbit who have talked frankly to The Weekend Australian about his recent travails, and how they have been covered. Repeated calls to Packer's office in recent weeks have not been returned. But close associates say the tall-poppy syndrome kicks in when it comes to James, with the renewed public questioning of whether the Midas touch of Kerry has deserted the Packer family.

Those who have suddenly entered the world of white-hot public scrutiny that comes from being associated with a Packer are known to be surprised by it. Executives at CVC Asia-Pacific -- the private equity firm that took control of Nine and ACP in a blaze of publicity in 2006 -- privately confide they were not prepared for the intense and often critical media scrutiny that came with taking over Packer family assets.

The apparent delight in Packer's misfortune reached fever pitch on recent news about some of his so-called toys. He has put his $50 million luxury yacht, the Z Ellerston, on the market with a French boat broker months after it was launched in July last year. Depending on who you talk to, he will also either push back or shelve altogether delivery of a Boeing Business Jet, a $60 million private version of the Boeing 737-700.

Then there are the business losses -- largely from his investments in casinos and, to a lesser extent, financial services -- resulting from the global crisis.

The social pages have been in overdrive. Reports have suggested Packer, who recently became a first-time dad, is everything from "depressed", to "overweight", "back on the cigarettes", a "recluse" who tries to avoid as many public appearances as possible and "lying low" at his family's sweeping Ellerston property in NSW's Hunter Valley.

Such reports are mocked by those close to Packer. "He went to his farm for a couple of weeks, then he went to the US for his casino business, and people said he was a recluse because they didn't see him," one associate says. "But he just doesn't socialise. Just because he's not seen at social functions, it doesn't make him a recluse. It makes him sensible."

Talk about Packer has focused on the suggestion that in family dynasties the first generation makes a fortune, the second builds on it, and the third generation blows the wealth built by the first two generations. The question has been whether James -- the grandson of legendary Nine Network founder Sir Frank Packer -- would follow this pattern.

One confidante rubbishes such talk: "So much speculation (smacks) of people not knowing what's happening. They just publish wild theories. I think he has some troubles, but all this stuff about imminent collapse or being down to his last $1.8 billion are just rubbish. He's pretty low, but lots of people have lost money and are low at the moment. It's not exclusive to him."

Another confidante says: "He's not exactly throwing parties when the world's doing what it is. Does he feel pressure? Yes. Does he get depressed? No. But he does get upset for shareholders and for doing a bad deal."

Packer's defenders say the recent media frenzy has largely omitted and forgotten the good deals he did.

Two years ago,
W said Packer was "proving himself the equal of his father Kerry". The deal that prompted these platitudes was Packer's defining move to effectively offload PBL Media to CVC for more than $5 billion in October 2006. This price was achieved at the very top of the media cycle, and just as the value of old-media assets such as Nine and ACP was about to collapse. Now the company is saddled with $3.8 billion in debt and forced to go to its bankers for approval to recapitalise before it breaches debt covenants, leaving Packer's sale looking even more prescient.

That was the high point of Packer's public standing. One close associate says: "Imagine if James hadn't sold PBL Media. He probably sold at the right hour, let alone the right time, and he paid back $2 billion to shareholders" of his former Publishing and Broadcasting Ltd media and gaming empire in 2007. "Look at CBS -- it is now trading at two times earnings in the US. It's shaping up as one of the smartest deals done in world media."

Packer looked doubly smart at the time of his initial deal with CVC when he was able to hang on to the key new-media assets accumulated as part of his father's empire.

These include a 25 per cent stake in pay-TV leader Foxtel (which is also 25 per cent owned by News Limited, publisher of The Australian), a 50 per cent stake in Premier Media Group (which operates the Fox Sports channels) and a 27 per cent stake in online job classifieds leader Seek.

These three stakes now make up the listed Consolidated Media Holdings -- in which Packer personally continues to be the largest shareholder with a 38 per cent interest.

ConsMedia was one of two companies formed late in 2007 when Packer split his father's former Publishing and Broadcasting Limited empire into two parts -- the media group and the separate gaming company, Crown.

In last week's earnings briefing, ConsMedia continued to be one of the few media companies recording rising profits. The company reported a 5 per cent rise in interim net profit to $46.2 million, as the Foxtel and Fox Sports stakes continued to be largely cocooned from the effects of the global downturn.

Sources suggest Packer would probably be a seller of his 38 per cent stake in the business, but at levels well above the current fire-sale price of about $1.90 a share: which values it at around $1.3 billion. Says one source: "I think if he had the right price for it, he'd sell it. But the right price has a three in front of it, and it's a heck of a long way from that now."

While ConsMedia continues to produce good returns, what brought the media Packer-whackers back out in force was the performance of the Crown casino assets.

The criticism has been that Packer lost much of his winnings from the PBL Media sale by investing billions of dollars of his shareholders' money in international casino assets at or near the top of the market.

There was the $1.45 billion 2007 joint venture with Macquarie Bank in Canada's Gateway Casinos group, the $US250 million Crown paid for a 19.6 per cent stake in US-based Fontainebleau Resorts. His biggest gamble of all was the $US1.75 billion Crown committed for 100 per cent of the Las Vegas-based Cannery Casino Resorts late in 2007.

Later there were Crown's minority investments early last year in US casino giants Harrah's Entertainment ($US150 million for a 2.5 per cent stake) and Stations Casino Group ($US200 million for a 4.9 per cent stake). In 2006, there was also a smaller $91.8 million investment for 50 per cent of Britain's Aspinalls casino group.

Some of the evidence of how much Crown overpaid for many of these assets is in the write-downs it has made in recent weeks.

Last week, Crown revealed the total of these one-off charges was $547.5 million. A total of $455 million of this figure was attributable to the Harrah's, Fontainebleau and Stations stakes: reducing their total combined value to about $100 million. Crown noted that it had "no obligation" to contribute further equity to these investments. A further $93 million was wiped off the value of the Aspinalls and Gateway investments in last week's result.

There are also fears of big write-downs on the value of the Cannery investment before Packer even settles on the investment. A regulatory hold-up in Pennsylvania -- where the casino group owns one casino -- has meant any fall in the value of Cannery since the deal was agreed late in 2007 has not yet been crystallised. The delay concerns Packer's sister, Gretel, and her reported concern about the release of private financial information about her, as part of the state's regulatory approval process for Crown to take over the casino.

A Crown statement to the Australian Securities Exchange last month maintained the company remained "committed to the Cannery acquisition", but the actions of Gretel Packer, and her motives, have certainly confused the matter.

Crown boss Rowen Craigie last week batted away questions on whether it would take write-downs on the Cannery assets if the Gretel Packer complication was ultimately resolved. However, he reportedly admitted it had bought the company at the "top of the market".

Others close to Packer maintain that the valuation of many of his US assets -- particularly the Gateway, Fontainebleau, Stations and Harrah's stakes, which are now virtually written down to zero -- accounts for a worst-case scenario.

Still, sources suggest that in his private moments, James Packer is still annoyed with himself about the US casinos play. "With 20:20 hindsight, he shouldn't have paid top dollar for those casinos," says one. "He's a tremendously disciplined person, and he punishes himself more than he punishes everyone else. I think he's a bit of a deal perfectionist."

While Packer's US play wades through a sea of red ink, the stakes could also not be higher for the company's high-profile casino company in Macau, Melco Crown Entertainment -- the joint venture he with local entrepreneur Lawrence Ho -- on which Crown is pinning much of its growth hopes. The company disclosed last week that its flagship property in the city, its $US2.1 billion City of Dreams casino, would open in June this year on Macau's popular Cotai strip.

It is the only new casino project opening in Macau this calendar year, and Crown anticipates it will benefit from "a reduced level of new supply coming into the market in the near future" from rival operators. Crown insiders describe the casino as having a "wow" factor, with a main entrance with round-the-clock shows and a water theme. The new casino will dwarf the size of Crown Macau, Melco's first casino in Macau.

While several analysts are positive about the opening, there are risks, with mixed views on how Macau casinos will perform. There are some projections of double-digit declines in overall Macau casino revenues for the remainder of the financial year, although Crown itself is optimistic the worst is over.

Crown also revealed last week that despite $US46.2 million in operating profit from Crown Macau, start-up costs from City of Dreams dragged Melco to a first-half loss. There are expected to be hundreds of millions of dollars more in construction costs and other expenses incurred before the new casino opens.

But one source close to Packer maintains most of the costs of building City of Dreams are not coming directly from Crown -- given that it only holds a 37.8 per cent interest in Melco -- and that its Macau exposure remains a positive for the business. "Crown has put in $US450 million for a business that has two casinos, its own licence that it bought from Steve Wynn -- one of only six in Macau -- and has bought two casinos fully funded. For all the criticism, it's actually not a bad investment. And much of the money has already been invested in businesses, where the full benefit has not been reaped."

But another long-time Packer associate is not so sure about Macau's position, a city that has seen the net worth of casino tycoons like Wynn and Sheldon Adelson shrink by billions. "My concern is the high rollers are gone," he says. "When there was the Asian economic crisis in the late 1990s, it was just the Asian crisis, and there were still high-rollers around. This time, it's global. And people are only going to Vegas for cheap seminars."

The powerhouses of the Crown business remain its wholly owned Australian casinos, Crown Melbourne and Burswood in Perth, which last week reported a combined 8.3 per cent growth in operating profit, in line with last year's rises. Packer insiders say Kevin Rudd's new $42 billion stimulus package is expected to be a bonanza for both of Packer's Australian casinos, as some consumers look to spend their $900 cash windfall in April on poker machines and gaming tables.

On Packer's private company front, Consolidated Press Holdings, those close to him are talking up the proposed sale of the bulk of his family's farming assets built up since 1983 -- the year Kerry Packer decided he wanted "a cattle station up north" soon after suffering one of his heart attacks.

Sources this week told The Weekend Australian that the $425 million sale of most of Consolidated Pastoral's 17 properties in the Northern Territory, Queensland and NSW -- which now includes 300,000 cattle on 5 million hectares -- to British private equity group Terra Firma was likely to complete within the next couple of weeks.

It is believed ConsPastoral has a current annual operating profit before depreciation and amortisation of about $24 million to $25 million, implying the sale is being conducted on a multiple of upwards of 17 times earnings. To use a cattle analogy, this multiple would, if true, represent bull market prices for the assets -- and those close to him say it shows Packer can still pull off a deal.

One close Packer associate says the deal reflects a new outlook for Packer where he releases cash and maximises returns. "I think he's clearly acknowledged he's got to hunker down, and realise cash for assets where he receives good value for them."

The source says Packer's biggest ally in weathering the global economic crisis is his unemotional attitude to investments. "He has an admirable lack of sentiment in recognising what has to be done. There will be no more acquisitions. He has to take his medicine until the market turns.

Cassie Teller is a woman who has everything she could ever want. What Cassie Teller wants, Cassie Teller gets, it's a mantra that she has lived by in the past and with the men in her life, she plans on maintaining that mantra. Married to Corby Teller, Sports and Entertainment World's Man of the Year, Cassie is no stranger to the limelight. Corby can do no wrong in the eyes of the press although they have a secret that could ruin a lot of people. He will do anything for his wife and who she chooses to bring into the bedroom is no different. Fueled by hatred, an ex-wife does the unthinkable and in the end, it could cost the Tellers EVERYTHING.

In a way, I envied Cassie Teller in that she was absolutely adored and pampered by the men in her life. She was a very confident character who really didn't care what the world thought of her, but did worry about the reputations of her men. Part of me was thinking, "now why can't I be like that, minus a man or two". I was really shocked that Cassie could pull the power card as easily as she did, but when you think about it, she was the only woman and if things didn't go her way, well let's just say NO ONE would be happy at the end of the night. She had her limits on what people could call her and I admired the way she stood up for herself. A girls got to set the limits after all.

Corby was the emotional pillar in the group and the one man who was legally married to Cassie. I fell in love with his character because he knew when to show her how much he loved her and knew when to stay back when his temper got the best of him. He stood out as the go to man for any major decisions in the relationship but did everything in the best interest of his wife.

Steve was the best friend and Cassie's ex-lover. He set the basis for what Cassie looks for in a man and he seemed to be the muscle behind the group. They were all men of great physical stature but Steve knew Cassie better than anyone and there would be hell to pay if anyone came close to hurting her.

Mark's character started out a little chauvinist to me. I didn't like him at first but as I kept reading, I grew to have a fondness for him. Yeah, he was all macho and being the newcomer didn't know the rules but when he got into the swing of things, watch out, Mark was a force to be reckoned with. As you read the book, you will see what I mean. He was more than endowed in the bedroom.

I felt that the group together, not just in the bedroom but as a group, worked so well together. There was humor, adoration, loyalty and a respect for each other that would not be broken by anyone. The characters were written in such a way that even if you didn't agree with what was going on, you really wanted to be a part of the Teller clan, it was that exciting.

I have been a fan of Destiny Blaine since the very first book I read of hers and let me just tell you, this book is above and beyond any book than I had read from her yet. It was scorching hot and I am surprised the book didn't spontaneously burst into flames. The ending of Sports Wives 3 was brilliant and it couldn't have ended in a better or funnier way. If you are a lover of menage writing, then Sports Wives 3 is definitely the book for you. If watching a football game on Sunday is not your thing, leave your man to watch it while you read this book and the outcome will be a very exciting afternoon. You will be a lover of at least football players when you are finished reading it. Be sure to have a pitcher of cold water, you are going to need it. This was an arousing and brilliantly written book and now I am off to read books one and two.

Living in Boston, you cannot walk ten blocks in any direction without bumping into an engineer. Engineers are responsible for nearly everything. Look at an object, building or web site and know that an engineer had a hand in its creation. The engineer: woman ratio basically ensures that every woman is bound to date an engineer at some point. The engineer is a stereotypical geek: spending a majority of his time behind a computer screen instead of interacting with other people or a book or film even. After toiling away in a cube for years at some start-up or another, this engineer suddenly realizes he has one more think to tick off the to-do list. A girlfriend.

When I met Brian, I had just been through a strange dating year: dating the lead singer in a local band; a waiter/actor; a biker guy who I could only reach by his pager (no red flag there) and various hook ups with musicians, guys completely wrong for me and even a professional baseball player. I was a bit wild and maybe even reckless but I couldn’t figure out how to keep any guys interested in me for me and not sex.

At first, Brian represented the stability I desired. He’s tall, cute, smart and even funny despite many frustrating quirks. He approached me while I was watching some of my friends in a band and said, “Do you like French food? I know this restaurant on Newbury Street.” Unbelievable but true. He lived in the suburbs (an hour from my Brighton apartment) so the restaurant he had remembered wasn’t even where he thought it was. I think within minutes I asked him if he were an engineer. Later he told me, laughing, that he was the only guy at The Middle East with a collared shirt. True but I still could pick an engineer out of I crowd after hanging out with MIT guys while at Simmons College.

Before I knew it we were exclusively dating and I found myself driving out to a place I never thought I’d never be in again after I finished riding horses and attending pony club meetings—Groton, Mass. As one with urban sensibilities, this became a huge issue. His place was a long haul and so far from anything remotely cultural. On his part, he did come out to Boston quite a bit to take me to the theater and out to dinner. Our relationship lasted two years and we remain friends. Brian is certainly not a bad person. I would never have put up with him for so long. He’s caring in his own way: the numerous times that I have been out of work (he reminds me is due to the fact that I have useless liberal arts degrees, a bachelors in English and a masters in journalism), Brian helped me. He still takes me to the occasional celebratory dinner at great Boston restaurants and fixes any “mechanical” problems I have—computer, lights, the air conditioner. We regularly attend the theatre. My mom thinks we act like a married couple. And we do. We bicker. He thinks I’m bossy. I think he’s sometimes lazy and annoying. We spend time at his house where he’s downstairs playing computer chess or watching “The Simpsons” or “Nova,” and I’m upstairs reading or watching a DVD. We cook dinner together, he advises me on my finances, he buys me things to improve my professional life (laptop, nursing classes) or that will benefit my health (a mountain bike, gym membership).


Engineers only communicate by formulas: don’t expect cards or notes

In my entire time dating Brian, I never received any sort of note or idea of how he felt about me. They show you and don’t usually tell you. And by these it’s not usually warm and cozy, snuggling or unexpected sex, it’s a set of tires or a cable modem or sitting down with your checking account and an excel spreadsheet to help you create a budget. When you can finally “break through” it’s probably the real deal. A friend married an engineer and he never said anything about his feelings but one day her soothing ways just broke him down so that he was to the point of tears in expressing his emotions.

On our first few dates Brian would hold my hand in the movie theater and literally throw it away when the lights came up. When Brian sent me a beautiful tropical flower arrangement at work on my birthday the note read: “HB, R”– He could not even spell out happy birthday or say that it had been a fun few months? Clearly these signals should have made me walk away but maybe I wanted a challenge. Not only will an engineer even send a thoughtful email but forget trying to have

When he did compliment me I could be pretty sure that he meant it. Engineers do not waste words. When an engineer says something, he’s thought extensively about it beforehand. But sometimes I would have to ask his opinion on my new haircut or what I was wearing to the theater. There even if he didn’t directly express it, I knew what he was thinking. Once I had on fishnets and red patent leather shoes and he insisted I change.


Engineers don’t like small talk

So that brings me to this important point. If you like to chat and ramble about your day, spinning class vs. kickboxing or how cute your cat can be, find a friend with a good ear. It’s not going to fly with your engineer boyfriend. You can finagle small talk or a conversation about The Patriots or the stock market but you will end up doing most of the listening. As engineers like to tackle problems and projects, they also like to explain to their girlfriends how the Pats can and will clinch the championship or how valuable an employee stock purchase program can be to you. When I received a job offer from a hospital, Brian showed great disappointment that it was non-profit and not a public company where I could increase my savings by flipping my money in the stock plan at a 15% or greater increase, every six months. Although my salary and benefits and the job description seemed to suit me much more, he still thought I should have set my sights on a public company.

Brian started to tell me, “If you can’t make your point in 15 seconds, I’m walking away.” And he did and he still does. Think before you speak. You might want to go over your main points on the T ride over to your engineer’s apartment or jot things down that you want to discuss throughout the week. Be organized. An engineer’s time is not to be wasted.

Preferred communication? As little as possible. Brian told me how his co-worker’s girlfriend got email at work and suddenly the guy got eight emails a day. Pare it down girls. Yes, it’s so easy to crank off an email when a thought pops into your head at work. But don’t! He will delete if you exceed three and you might start to smother him too much. He wants everything concise and reading tons of silly emails from you will not make his day. It’s not thoughtful, it’s wasteful. Sure you’ll be jealous of the girls who have “normal” boyfriends; the sales guys, research scientists and financial analysts who have time to check in a few times by phone or email back and forth regularly. Be strong. Don’t give into your emotions so quickly. Write post it notes all over your computer and cube if need be: do not call him, do not email him. Wait as many days as you can. Engineers don’t like a needy girl. Sure, they want to solve your concrete problems but they don’t want to deal with your emotions.

I’m a sensitive person. A writer. I read a lot. According to Brian I waste too much time reading novels whether they be by Willa Cather, a Booker Prize winner or the latest from Tom Perrotta. Why couldn’t I read things that he read “Learning the bash shell” or “Universal Serial Bus System Architecture”? I frequently go see films and enjoy the theatre. I will admit it. I’m extremely emotional. I let little things and little people bother me too quickly. I learned the hard way that finding a good therapist instead of expecting my engineer boyfriend to have any empathy would have salvaged my relationship a long time ago. I learned he does not need to know every intricate detail of my warped, hypersensitive thinking. He’ll only hold it against me. And I’m not being deceitful. It’s completely practical. And I’m sure this will come in handy later with other non-engineers types.


Sleeping counts as time spent together.

Usually, there’s the startup/project hell when the engineer puts in 16-hour days. Brian warned me after a few weeks of dating (we’d see each other on Wednesdays and Saturdays—engineers like routine) that “things were going to change” because he was starting a position at a new start-up. It scared me but then I realized it wouldn’t be that different.

That’s right girls, seven hours asleep next to each other is quality time for engineers. So, if you want to avoid falling into this trap don’t stay over very often. And I’m not saying engineers don’t like to cuddle after sex. Brian would initiate any spooning before I did. It’s just it comes to a point in your relationship that if you are around too much, he takes you for granted. So to protect yourself from becoming too attached or pushing him away by moving in half your closet, have separate interests that can keep you busy.

Avoid staying more than two nights in a row or you’ll wear out your welcome. Engineers don’t like neediness and clinginess. Some of my excuses for extended stays: I don’t have anything to do Friday night so I might as well come; I don’t like my apartment and you have a four bedroom house don’t have to see each other; by the time I go to the gym and get out there on Saturday it’ll be so late and you can wake me up earlier than I can wake myself up (that’s a great one, oh so pathetic!)


Engineers like shipping product.

Brian would encourage me to the point of solid measured results only. He would say to me, if you get to your goal weight, I will buy you the next TiVo series. Or, if you cook dinner for me for six weeks, I will buy you something special. It is not the minutiae along the way that deserves their focus. End product is the key.

This also means that you will undergo changes while he stays the same guy in Dockers and a blue shirt. Brian smugly told me, “I’m happy with myself; you’re not.” But he had a laundry list of things I needed to change mainly to be less emotional. Easy to say to someone who is a depressed wreck.

Usually the engineer is resistant to change and that’s why he seems to wear the same thing to work every day. If you do it very casually, you may be able to tweak a thing or two. Put the green cords (i.e. the most stylish pair of pants in his collection) in the stack of pants pile in the closet and he will wear them. The best way to achieve a desired result is to just put something in his direct line of sight/range and make it as easy as possible. For example, I suggested that Brian not use soap to wash his face. I bought Neutrogena Razor Defense face wash and he still uses it six years later. Months before, I gave him products that required several steps too many (three products instead of one). He tried it a few times but gave up quickly. One step is the most direct way for the engineer to handle any personal hygiene area.

Engineers provide concretely.

As I mentioned before, do not expect unexpected kisses, cuddling or hand holding. You are more likely to get a new notebook or an iPhone as signs of affection. The engineer will take you to dinner, the theatre, trips galore but get him to suddenly grab you and kiss you and express his love? Not likely. My first holiday gift from Brian? Snow tires! Apparently I needed those more than say a Tiffany ring or flat screen television. Brian would buy me anything that would help to improve me: see above. This meant all types of books for whatever new position I took. When I worked in investor relations at a genomics company, he bought me books on the stock market as well as Barron’s Dictionary of Financial Terms. When I embarked on classes for my second career as a nurse, he bought Gray’s Anatomy, a box of study cards on muscles, bones and nerves, and an L.L. Bean book bag. But buy me something sentimental? Absolutely not. Brian just did not see the point.

If you can put up with the idiosyncrasies and egos of an engineer, they are decent guys to date. You may need to spiff up their wardrobes or houses. You might have to nudge them into some less geeky behavior but they are reliable and sweet. Engineers provide comfort and they can be cute and smart. After many unstable relationships, it can be somewhat comfortable to be with someone predictable. Just do not allow it to get too staid. Engineers do enjoy routine more than most people and you just have to spice it up a bit from time to time. But you will find that an engineer will be game as long as he can be in bed by 11 p.m.

My wife and I went to a local bath house to relax. We had never experienced going into the community bathing area where it was clothing optional. I had always wondered what kind of reaction my wife would be showing her boobs in public. Her tits look amazing; beautiful DDD cups with nice and hard nips. She thought they hung a little too much but I strongly disagreed with her.
We made a bet on how many men would get a stiff cock looking at them. I guessed 5 and she guessed 1; meaning me! If she won the bet I would have to rub her clit and help her come to climax as she fucked one of the jets in the tub. If I won I told her she would have to give me a hand job in the tub where everyone could see.

person.  If I never saw him in the last three years, it is because I was never attracted to him in that way and he had commitments and really wasnt in a position for that to happen.  The word is a real turn off for me, although I am a sucker for really good conversation.
Communication between us became more frequent once I was made redundant and joined Facebook.  It was about that time I also started the blogs, my Aunt died, and I reconnected with other family members all the while looking for full time employment.  It was great having instant support from friends and family members.
Around Christmastime I learned that my diving friend was separating from his partner and moving into a new flat.  This came as a complete surprise to me as over the years he never really talked about his personal life.  (I have since learned that he had been separated already for 18 months.)  Having been down this road myself, I offered my sympathies and that was that.  He never discussed his personal issues.  He is a real gentleman.
Around the time I was having angst about Internet Man, one of my other Facebook friends, an acquaintance that lives locally to me, was having angst about just the thought of dating.  So here I am, ever helpful, I suggest that she make friends with my diving friend.  I tell her that he is a very nice man.  They are both single, so why not?  She isnt sure and will have to think about it.  I ask my diving friend to be friends with my friend.  Is she as nice as you? he asks.  I dont know, but she is very nice, I say.  Is she as attractive as you? he asks.  I dont know, she is an attractive woman, I say.  Eventually they both agree to be friends on Facebook, and after a couple of weeks, agree to meet for lunch.  Things are going very nicely via Facebook and my diving friend is going to come up here and meet my friend.
On the day my diving friend has his date, I text him and suggest we meet for coffee after.  As he has come all this way, I thought it would be nice to see him after all of these years.  He agrees.  When his lunch is over he calls me for my address.  It is 4:30 in the afternoon.  Five minutes later the doorbell rings.  My friend is at the door with a big smile.  I greet him with a big smile and a hug.  Hello stranger, I say.  I dont remember him looking this good.  I invite him in.  I make a big pot of coffee.  My son comes home from work and I introduce him to my friend and the three of us have coffee together.
Eventually, my friend and I are left alone to chat.  Nearly three years has passed, but it feels like only yesterday since we had been in each others company.  I ask him about lunch.  He thought my friend was a lovely woman, but that he thought her personal life was too complicated for him.  Thats it.  What a gentleman.  I didnt press it, as it wasnt any of my business.
So we play catch up and talk about ourselves and while doing so we realise that something is happening between us.  I know it is this feeling that I have been waiting for all of these years as I noticed something when I opened the door earlier.  How and why does it happen?  How is it possible to not be attracted to a person one moment and then to be attracted to them in the next?  Does it really matter?  Maybe it is all about timing.  In any event, I am trying not to think about it and just enjoy it.  I am feeling a little shy and simultaneously I want to be with this person sitting in front of me and talk with him for hours.  However, I settle for chatting for another hour and a lovely hug when he leaves.
That is how I have ended up spending those few weekends down at the coast.  My friends were right about distance being no obstacle.  It takes me about 1.5 - 2 hours to drive down.  Once I am off of the M25 the views are beautiful, and the time it takes driving down to visit feels like nothing.  I feel as if I am going on holiday every weekend.
I have just spent the best part of a week down here and am feeling more at home on each visit.  I feel really lucky to have met such a lovely and wonderful man.
Remind me to thank The Universe later.

small cards that would have turned into a straight, a flush, or 2 pair if you had let them draw for free, and this is still a good thing.4) You have a mediocre hand, such as top pair with a poor second card, or you have the second or third pair. An example of this would be when you call from late position with A7 suited, hoping for a flush draw, and pair the ace, with none of your suit showing, or call with a small pair like 44 or 55. Most of the time, these will be losing hands. Especially if there are several players in the pot, there is likely to be someone with an Ace and a better second card, putting you at a huge disadvantage. In the case of the small pair, you are hoping to flop a set (hit the third card, such as a third 4, or third 5) If there are several people in the pot, and there is a bet before you play, just fold. If it is checked around, and no card comes on the turn that would seem to help anybody, you may want to try a bet and see if they all fold. This is most likely to work if there are only a few people in the pot. The more players there are in, the less likely that they will all fold. You must also be aware of how the players play. If you have a player that will call to the end with a slightly better hand, it may not be worth a bet. Also, if you do bet on the turn, and get raised, fold. Not very many players at the low limits will check raise as a bluff.5) A situation that happens often is that, after the flop, you either have no made hand, or a very weak made hand, but you have possibilities for improvement. For instance, you call from late position after 4 others have called, with an Ace and 6 of hearts. The flop contains 2 hearts, but no Ace or 6. You are drawing at the nut (best) flush. If you get another heart, you will probably win the pot, otherwise you will most likely lose. To make a decision with drawing hands, you need to consider pot odds, implied odds, and your odds of making the hand you are drawing to, and winning. Note that in many cases it is quite possible that you will make the hand you are looking for, and still lose. And extreme example of this would be hoping to hit a 9 to pair the one you are holding. This would of course lose to anything, pair of Tens or better, and is a bad idea. A more practical example is drawing to an open ended straight, such as 8, 9, T, J, with 2 cards of one suit on board. If either a 7 or Queen hits, you have a straight. However if that 7 or Queen puts 3 of one suit on board you may lose to a flush. As well, if the 2 cards that you have are the 8 and 9, someone else may be drawing to a better hand, with a King and Ace for instance, in which case the Queen that gives you a straight gives them a higher straight at the same time, and is going to cost you some money. As we will see when we talk about counting outs in another article, you must take these possibilities into account when calculating your odds.There are many more factors that need to be taken into account in each situation. How the other players play, position, the size of the pot, the exact makeup of the flop etc. These will be covered in more detail in future articles. For the moment, this should get you headed in the right direction.Contact the author at http://A1-PokerInfo.comCopyright 2005 A1-PokerInfo.com.

this book. It's called "Anybody Can Be Cool ....But Awesome Takes Practice". It's a book that teaches teens to be "cool" through the teachings of Jesus.

Huh?

We all know that being cool has nothing to do with the Lord Jesus Christ your personal savior. The only cool gods I've ever seen are me and that elephant with the multiple limbs. What's his name? He's Hindu or something? You know the one I'm talking about.

A reader sent me this link to the book and I had to post it*. Look at that cover. I bet the blond haired dude is saying something about being yourself and using a crazy bible story as an example. Sure looks like he's got the attention of his listeners.

When I was in third grade I got roped into going to a "meeting" by some chick in my class. It turns out that it was some freaky Christian cult. They had us doing fun stuff for a while then started talking about religion. And they were trying to make religion cool. Trying. Very hard. I was in third grade and still knew it was bullshit and was looking for a way to escape. I still ask my parents what they were thinking when they let me go to that thing.

They claim they don't remember. Surrrrrre.

*and you have to click on the link and see what some of the reviewers on Amazon wrote about this book. Classic.

Tatsu oneself at the lowest strata of Indian caste system, that is, in general the so-called untouchables, Grace is also from Dalit families. She explained that, because born in a society on the bottom, Joan simply can not afford to protect themselves. Grace said: these women have a lot of sexual partners. Man they could not refuse the request, they should not ask them to use condoms, the men certainly do not automatically use condoms.

India currently has more than five million people infected with HIV, almost close to India's total population of 0.5%. World Bank report this year warned that if India does not promote the use of condoms, AIDS infection rates in India will be in the next 10 years to three million people per year rate of increase. The report estimates that by 2033, AIDS will become the cause of death in India, the largest number of diseases.

According to Grace, the Shinafiyah Chilingutila situation at the local common. Shinafiyah Guti has never attended school, the mother, should not work, at her childhood on her father passed away, she would provoke a very young age the burden of the family. Guti satisfied shy to say: I do respect very much the village people. They asked me to approach things for them, because I am a saint, I belong to goddess. Guti Shinafiyah now do not remember the original minds of the fear of violence. Since the mother was seriously ill, his father died young, Shinafiyah Guti no choice. She whispered: My mother was the asthma, she was too weak and simply can not afford to work, and this is my life.

Joan with their families generally live together, until at aging services for the temple. And, just as the fate of the European brothel madams like old Joan begin backstage and ideas for the next generation of Joan. the village people are aware of Joan Shinafiyah Guti are, according to custom, the upper class men will bring gifts and food come to request her mother to allow her to establish friendships.

Well, for their own situation, Shinafiyah Guti mind whether or not there is resentment? She said of course, very sorry, but only to accept the reality, because the whole family depend on her. She said: Sometimes I ask my mother why let such a thing to do, why I should not have a normal marriage. But what do I do? Now who would marry me? Joan you are me.
